Chapter 148 Absorbing Ice Flowers
Chapter 148 Absorbing Ice Flowers
A magnificent palace stands atop the Ice God Snow Mountain within the territory of the Heaven Dou Empire.
Upon closer inspection, the castle and palace are ornately decorated, their exterior walls gleaming in the sunlight.
The plaque above the main gate bears three large characters: "Ice God Sect." The three characters are dignified, grand, elegant, and simple...
"What?! Baby, what did you say?! Hunyuan Ice Flower!!" Ouyang Jie exclaimed in surprise.
Ouyang Luoxue smiled and said, "Dad, be more careful..."
"Ahem, Daddy was just too excited. Honey, where did you get this Hunyuan Ice Flower?" Ouyang Jie coughed twice, suppressing his shock as he asked.
Actually, it's not surprising that Ouyang Jie lost his composure. The Ice God Sect had been searching for the legendary immortal herb recorded in the sect's ancient books for a long time, perhaps several thousand years. Countless sect leaders had been exhausted in the search for it, but in Ouyang Jie's generation, it was finally found!
“You should know my friend. He was given to me by Qian Yuhan,” Ouyang Luoxue said calmly.
"Oh, Qian Yuhan, wait a minute, baby, are you talking about the one from your Uncle Qianmo's family?" Ouyang Jie asked.
Ouyang Luoxue nodded and asked in return, "Otherwise, which Qian Yuhan do you think it would be, Dad?"
Ouyang Jie's eyes twitched upon hearing this. He had originally planned to let his precious daughter get to know his older brother's child better.
But he knew his daughter well; she had absolutely no interest in men. This made him wonder if he had instilled some bad ideas in her that had made her averse to men…
I didn't know how to bring it up with my daughter, but this has saved me a lot of trouble.
“Baby, take this Hunyuan Ice Flower and come with me…” Ouyang Jie called to Ouyang Luoxue as she came to his side.
Ouyang Luoxue put away the Hunyuan Ice Flower, stepped forward, and took Ouyang Jie's hand.
Ouyang Jie teleported directly to a secret realm.
"Dad, where am I—"
Ouyang Luoxue had never been to this place before and was curious about everything around her.
"My dear, do you know the name of the mountain where our Ice God Sect is located?"
“Ice God Mountain,” Ouyang Luoxue said without hesitation.
"Indeed, this Ice God Mountain is the place where the powerful figure who once became the Ice God ascended to godhood."
"The Ice God? Does a god really exist?"
"Yes, it exists. And our Ice God Sect has been worshipping the Ice God for generations."
Ouyang Jie nodded and continued, "The sect leaders of each generation were all Grand Elders chosen by the Ice God, awaiting the arrival of the successor chosen by the Ice God."
"The successor to the Ice God?" Ouyang Luoxue asked in confusion.
“Indeed. Child, you are the person with the purest bloodline in the thousands of years of my Ice God Sect, and you are also the one with the greatest hope of gaining the Ice God’s approval and inheriting his mantle.”
"Can I really do it?" Ouyang Luoxue pondered in a low voice.
“Baby, be confident. You are definitely one of the leading figures of the new generation. The Spirit Hall is actually the same as the Ice God Sect, except that their scale is much larger than our sect. They have been loyal followers of the Angel God for generations. Your Uncle Qianmo is the Grand Elder of this generation. Alas, it’s just that poor Yu Han has no chance to take the Angel God’s test without the Angel Spirit.”
"Divine test?" Ouyang Luoxue caught the key word and asked.
"If you are chosen by a god, you will be put to a test. Different gods have different standards for the test, so it's not easy for us to explain them in detail. Take our lineage of the Ice God, for example. If you are put to the nine tests of the Ice God, then it proves that you are the chosen successor of the Ice God."
"The Nine Trials of the Ice God..."
"It's difficult. It requires courage, strength, wisdom, and many other excellent qualities to pass the test. I, your father, underwent the eighth test of the Ice Offering level. I brought you here because the ice element here is very concentrated, which will help you absorb it. Now, take it out—"
"Okay." Ouyang Luoxue nodded and took out the Hunyuan Ice Flower.
Ouyang Jie pointed to the statue over there and said, "That's an Ice God statue made of ultimate ice. Sit there and absorb it. I'll protect you!"
"Hmm." Ouyang Luoxue stepped forward and sat down cross-legged. The Hunyuan Ice Flower floated slowly in front of Ouyang Luoxue.
Ouyang Luoxue then circulated her soul power to absorb the Primordial Ice Flower.
What Ouyang Jie didn't tell Ouyang Luoxue was that they were currently in the Ice God Inheritance Plaza! The true core of the Ice God Sect!!
The surrounding space distorted, and six mysterious figures dressed in white robes appeared behind Ouyang Jie.
"Great Master!" the six men bowed respectfully.
"You've arrived." Ouyang Jie stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes constantly watching Ouyang Luoxue's condition.
The six retainers came to Ouyang Jie's side. When they saw the immortal herb in front of Ouyang Luoxue, they were all surprised and exchanged glances.
"Really? I'm not mistaken, am I?"
"It looks like it to me."
"Yes, the aura is unmistakable, it's the Primordial Ice Flower!"
……
The group chatted amongst themselves, their previous arrogance vanished, and they became like curious children, about to walk forward.
"What are you doing—" Ouyang Jie's voice woke them up.
“Great Master, we… hehe, we’ve never seen this legendary herb before, we’re curious—curious,” said the Third Master.
Ouyang Jie shook his head helplessly and said solemnly, "With the appearance of the Primordial Ice Flower, the mission entrusted to us by the Ice God may soon be completed!"
"Elder, is Miss able to withstand the Ice God's test? I'm afraid her body can't take it—" the Second Elder said with a worried expression.
"That's beyond our knowledge. Lord Ice God has his own plans. We just need to wait for Lord Ice God's instructions."
……
The realm of gods, the Ice God Temple.
"Well, Kold, you should thank your brother properly—" the God of Light said with a smile, holding a wine glass in his hand.
Kold glanced at the God of Light and said, "What does this have to do with you?"
"That's not fair of you. Look, wasn't that Primordial Ice Flower, your heirloom, given to Ouyang Luoxue by that brat Yu Han?"
"Yes, so what? What does he have to do with you?"
"You—" The God of Light was momentarily speechless. "Hmph, pretending to be ignorant when you know the truth, go drink."
Kold laughed, "Hahaha, I've finally said something to you! Let's drink—thank you, brother, for teleporting the Primordial Ice Flower of my Ice God lineage to that treasure land discovered by your successor..."
"You little rascal, you really are—" the God of Light said with a smile, "If I really want to thank someone, I have to thank that guy Shura. He gave it to me. This guy didn't want to see you, so I played the good guy. Speaking of your conflict with him, I think you should let it go. It's nothing that can't be resolved."
"We'll discuss everything after I, the successor, inherit my divine position. Brother, aren't you going to send that kid Qian Yuhan to the Valley of Light?"
"Tell him step by step. He's facing a divine test at the level of two God-Kings, so it's best to solidify his foundation. Luo Xue is a very good child, but it's best not to subject him to the test so early—"
"Understood. That old codger Shura sent me a message that Luo Xue must become the Ice Goddess after Qian Yuhan has achieved your godhood. I plan to wait until Luo Xue is a Title Douluo before conducting the assessment."
"Hmm, Shura always only says half of what he means, he's hard to figure out, sigh—" the God of Light complained.
……
……
Thanks to "Eternal Ghost Blade" for the two triple likes and shares! Thank you, brother!
Thank you so much to "Xiao Guan" for the three-part love gift! Thank you so much!!
