Soul Emperor Martial God

Chapter 2250: Chapter 2247: Ice Palace Treasure Land

Swish...Swish...Swish...

On the fourth floor of the Ice Palace, five figures appeared out of thin air.

It was Xiao Yi, along with the Four Great Guardians.

Step...

Xiao Yi’s foot landed heavily on the Mystic Cold Ice Crystal, staggering slightly.

In contrast, the Four Great Guardians landed steadily, as if moving like swift swans, firmly touching down upon appearing.

The gap between both parties was extremely apparent.

”What immense Prohibition strength,” Xiao Yi was slightly taken aback.

A surge of cold swept across his body.

”Hmm?” Xiao Yi glanced at his feet, his expression shocked again, ”What an astonishing cold, Mystic Cold Venerate Jade?”

When Xiao Yi felt the cold enveloping him, he suspected something was amiss.

Given his cultivation and strength, ordinary places couldn’t possibly make him feel such biting cold.

Upon seeing the ice crystal beneath his feet, he finally reacted, his expression shocked.

The ice crystal covering the floor was actually Mystic Cold Venerate Jade.

Mystic Cold Venerate Jade, the sovereign of ice attribute jade stones, is extremely rare.

Even Xiao Yi had only seen it a few times in the Central Region. Firstly, it wasn’t of much use to a martial artist of his level, and secondly, it was extraordinarily rare.

In the secular world of the Central Region, perhaps few have heard of Mystic Cold Venerate Jade, but when speaking of Thousand-Year-Old Cold Ice Beds, Mystic Cold Seclusion Rooms, and other renowned cultivation items, almost everyone knows.

These two items are possessed by many great powers and are often used for seclusion by sect masters and elders or for top-tier Heavenly Talents within the sect to break through in cultivation.

Yet, a small piece of Mystic Cold Venerate Jade, barely the size of a palm, combined with some ordinary Mystic Ice, could, within a few short years, nurture a Thousand-Year-Old Ice Bed or transform a regular seclusion room into a Mystic Cold Seclusion Room.

Or more simply put, Mystic Cold Venerate Jade is the highest tier ice attribute cultivation aid, incredibly rare.

Of course, those like Thousand-Year-Old Cold Ice Beds are of little use to a monster like Xiao Yi.

In the past, Xiao Yi rarely saw them, and even if he did, he wasn’t very interested.

But that was simply because there was too little Mystic Cold Venerate Jade contained in such items.

But now?

The entire fourth floor of the Ice Palace, the entire ice crystal floor is entirely paved with Mystic Cold Venerate Jade.

How large is the fourth floor of the Ice Palace?

The Ice Emperor Palace has four floors; the first floor is already incredibly vast, each succeeding floor decreasing in size.

By the fourth floor, it naturally becomes smaller.

But this is only a relative comparison.

Standing truly on this fourth floor, as far as the eye can see, spans over a hundred li.

A full hundred li, all Mystic Cold Venerate Jade.

Not just him, Xiao Yi, but even seasoned Saint Sovereign Realm experts, and even the likes of Xia Yifeng, the protector at this level of the Ice Emperor Palace, would have their cultivation greatly boosted by training here.

Especially martial artists cultivating in the ice attribute path; a day of training here could be worth one or two years outside.

”Tsk.” Xiao Yi couldn’t help but draw a breath of cold air.

Such a large piece of Mystic Cold Venerate Jade, if it were to be broken apart into countless small pieces, its value might surpass the entire heritage of ten Ice Emperor Palaces.

Beside him, the Four Great Guardians wore faces full of pride.

”Kid,” Lu Long said arrogantly, ”this is a treasure land left by the Ice Venerate Ancestor, something even your Eight Palaces cannot muster.”

Guardian Bing and Guardian Nangong remained silent, but their disdainful gaze at Xiao Yi seemed to look at a bumpkin.

Xia Yifeng saw the expression on the trio’s faces and then looked at Xiao Yi, smiling, ”Kid, don’t wear that shocked expression.”

”You must know, for the next month or even longer, you’ll be able to cultivate here.”

”And now, you’re the only one here, so all of the extensive enhancement effects here will be enjoyed by you alone.”

Hearing this, Xiao Yi’s lips curled into a smile.

This kind of smile, he usually only reveals when he enters a treasure land and sees a treasure mountain in front of him.

Upon hearing this, Guardian Bing and Guardian Nangong’s faces showed a hint of resentment.

”Alright, follow me,” Xia Yifeng said, looking at Xiao Yi, ”I’ll explain the fourth floor of the Ice Palace to you, and then you can start cultivating.”

Xia Yifeng moved his steps and began slowly walking around the fourth floor of the Ice Palace.

Xiao Yi followed up.

Xia Yifeng said, ”Firstly, as you see, the entire fourth floor of the Ice Palace is built of Mystic Cold Venerate Jade, with extraordinary enhancement effects for martial artists’ cultivation.”

”Secondly, the moment you first appeared, you should have also felt it, heavy with Prohibition forces here.”

”Indeed, every part of here is brimming with restrictions, all personally laid by the Ice Venerate Ancestor back in the day.”

”Some are to enhance the effect of the Mystic Cold Venerate Jade, some are defensive prohibitions of the fourth floor of the Ice Palace, and some are for concentration and quietude...”

”In all, there are hundreds of prohibitions here, intricately interlinked.”

As he spoke, Xia Yifeng pointed to the surrounding area, ”Have you noticed the patterns on the surrounding ice walls?”

Here on the fourth floor of the Ice Palace, patterns sometimes appear on the surrounding ice walls, be they symbols or drawings, densely packed in some areas while sparse in others.

Xia Yifeng explained, ”These were also engraved by the Ice Venerate Ancestor themselves back then.”

”Some were insights the Ice Venerate Ancestor accidentally gained during seclusion, leaving behind drawings; others are formation embryos that can be instantly activated, each with unpredictable effects.”

Xia Yifeng paused in his step, ”This is the overall nature of the whole fourth floor of the Ice Palace.”

”Afterwards, as you see, there are Mystic Cold Bookshelves piled in every direction throughout the entire fourth floor of the Ice Palace.”

Xiao Yi nodded in recognition, seeing rows upon rows of ice crystal bookshelves.

Their distribution forms a circular pattern, every shelf piling the four sides full.

Each wall of shelves has six levels.

Between layers, there are two-meter-wide passages for martial artists training here to move through freely, browsing the classics at will.

These bookshelves appear evidently made of Mystic Cold Venerate Jade as well.

And apart from these circularly arranged bookshelves, at the very center lies a massive, wide-open cultivation ground, enveloped in a thin misty white aura.

Xia Yifeng explained, ”The entire fourth floor of the Ice Palace has a total of eight hundred bookshelves.”

”The left two hundred bookshelves contain cultivation techniques, including eight thousand Venerable Level Cultivation Methods, thirty thousand Supreme Techniques, and over sixty thousand Emperor-level Techniques.”

”The right two hundred bookshelves hold martial techniques, comprising ten thousand Venerable Level Martial Techniques, over fifty thousand Supreme Martial Techniques, and eighty thousand Emperor-level Martial Arts.”

”The front two hundred bookshelves are for Secret Techniques, with over two thousand Venerable Secret Techniques, six thousand Supreme Secret Techniques, and fifteen thousand Emperor-level Secret Techniques.”

”The back two hundred bookshelves,” Xia Yifeng pointed behind him, ”hold Martial Arts Classics, including scrolls, cultivation insights, and guidance insights.”

Xiao Yi nodded, his eyes full of joy.

Inside the fourth floor of the Ice Palace, these shelves are imposing, filled to the brim with ancient classics.

Xia Yifeng gave a final slight nod, ”You can freely browse any of the classics here, be it techniques, martial arts, secret techniques, or records of predecessors.”

”If you gain any insights, then make your way to the central area to ponder and explore them yourself.”

”If anything is unclear or troubles you, feel free to ask me any time.”
