Divine God Against The Heavens

More than half of the participants left moved to the side, withdrawing from the competition, leaving behind exactly 120 participants.

Wu Cheng smiled and said, "Now I'll tell you about what you all have to do after going to the Land of Ice and Fire."

Then he pointed at Ta Mu and Huang Daniu before saying, "We have hidden away ten flags there, five of them inside the Eastern Zone which is also known as the Land of Ice while other five in the western Zone known as Land of Fire."

Saying this, he waved his hand and two flags, one white and one red appeared out of nowhere in front of everyone. Wu Cheng again said, "White flags are hidden inside the Land of Ice while the red ones are in the Land of fire. Your job is to find one of these ten flags. We have inscribed a formation on the flag. The moment you'll touch the flag, the formation on the flag will be activated, transporting you to the top of the arena you can see in front of you."

Wu Cheng pointed at the large arena. Looking closely, everyone saw a large transportation formation carved on top of the arena. They could not help but exclaim in their heart. This formation was really too big and must have exhausted a large number of resources for the three of them to inscribe it on top of the arena.

So, it turned out that the arena was not for the participants of the competition to fight each other and decide the victor but for the purpose of transporting people from one place to another.

"The last thing I'll tell all of you is, although the Land of Ice and Fire is extremely dangerous for even Immortal King Realm experts, the opportunity you'll get there will be very bountiful. Apart from that, the ten people who'll be able to find the ten flags will be the winner of this competition."

Saying this, Wu Cheng looked at the crowd and asked, "Is there any question anyone wants to ask?"

All 120 participants looked at each other before one of them took two steps forwards and asked, "Senior, you said that a formation is inscribed on each of the ten flags, and the person who will touch the flag will be transported here along with the flag. My question is, there are only ten flags and ten people can transport outside using the flags. What will happen to the participants other than those ten chosen people? How will they be able to come out?"

Wu Cheng nodded his head after hearing this question and replied with a playful smile on his face, causing a chill to run down everyone's spine: "You all don't have to worry. The moment the ten flags will be found, we will open a channel through which, the remaining participants will be automatically teleported out from there."

The participant who asked the question nodded his head and backed down. Mu Cheng again said, "Is there any other question anyone would like to ask?"

Seeing that no one come forward to ask the question, Wu Cheng again said, "Since no one has any question to ask, come forward and climb at the top of the arena. Twenty people at a time, and you'll be transported to the Land of Ice and Fire."

The moment the first group of participants made up of twenty people climbed at the top of the arena, a bright light shone that covered the figure of all twenty people and soon after, they disappeared. Obviously, they were transported to the Land of Ice and Fire.

Group after group of people came forward, and very soon, it was Ye Xiao's turn to go up. He walked forward, arrived at the corner of the arena, and jumped up, safely landing on top of the arena.

When all twenty people gathered on top of the arena, with a bright light, they were immediately disappeared from where they were standing.

.....

_The Land Of Ice And Fire, Ice Forest_

A strange fluctuation appeared in the air and with the slight ripple of air, a figure suddenly appeared with a bright light surrounding its entire body.

It was Ye Xiao. The moment he appeared he looked at his surroundings. As far as he could see, there were only ice and ice. The trees, mountains, and some large boulders, all of them were covered in ice.

Apart from him, there was no one in his surroundings, confirming Ye Xiao of one thing. The teleportation was random.

Ye Xiao immediately released his Divine Sense that covered a large part of the Ice Forest, making him able to see everything within the area that his Divine Sense has covered.

He wanted to search for the flag as soon as possible and go outside. He didn't have any interest in searching for treasures here. The temperature here was really too low. Even with his Ice Elemental Body, Ye Xiao found it difficult to walk properly. What was more, chilling air was also flowing, increasing the effect of already low temperature.

No wonder, this place was called the Land of Ice.

The first thing Ye Xiao saw was a short man with grey pointy ears pondering on top of a branch while gazing at the far.

Rustle Rustle...

Suddenly his pointy ears quivered at the abnormal rustling sound of the leaves behind him.

"Heh, trying to ambush me?" He snickered without turning his head, acting like he didn't notice the ambush.

Whoosh Whoosh!

The moment his pointy ears picked up the sound of approaching objects, he immediately turned around with a cocky smirk on his face, planning to cut them into two with his sharp sword that suddenly appeared in his hands out of thin air.

He was clearly confident in his ability to achieve so.

Too bad, the sight that greeted him was not like he expected, as he saw two rays of white light flashing, closing in on him with horrifying speed.

"Dear God, what the hell is this!"

Terrified, that person could not help but cry in a loud voice while dodging narrowly one ray of light, leaving the other one to hit him right in the thigh!

The moment his thigh came in contact with the white ray of light, it started freezing, and not long after, his entire leg froze, making it impossible for that person to move.

It was also at this time when the ambusher revealed its face. That person heard the footsteps of someone coming on four legs. When he looked in front of him with fearful eyes, he saw a white Panda-like beast making its way toward him.

"Evil-Eyed Panda!"

Ye Xiao muttered in low voice. The Evil-Eyed Panda was a Late-Stage Immortal Lord Realm Immortal Beast, but since it was in the land of ice, its strength could even match to an Early Stage Immortal King Realm martial artist.

Ye Xiao was looking at this scene with his Divine Sense. That person was quite far away from him so he could not do anything to save him. Even if that person was in front of him, Ye Xiao would not have rushed to save him. He didn't know that person nor did he know what kind of nature that person has. What if that person stab in his back after he saved him?

The Evil-Eyed Panda was famous for its ice-type attack called Ice Storm and it is said that it could make a person fall in an illusion because of its two red eyes. In this illusion, that person would encounter his deepest fear. It was also because of this that this panda was called Evil-Eyed Panda.

The person whose one leg was frozen was at the Late Stage of the Immortal Lord Realm. He could not even put up any fight against the Evil-Eyed Panda before his leg was frozen and could not move from his place.

He kept looking at the Evil-Eyed Panda as it was closing to him slowly, step by step. The more closer it went to that person, the more afraid that person with pointy ears became. And when the Evil-Eyed Panda arrived in front of him, because of fear, that person peed his pants before fainting on the spot.

The Evil-Eyed Panda kept staring at that person with its dark red eyes as if it was looking at an ant.

It moved its head forward and opened its large mouth filled with sharp teeth and bit down the neck of that man, killing him on the spot. Blood flowed out like a fountain from that man's neck. Then, the Evil-Eyed Panda started to enjoy the meal in front of it.

"This place really is extremely dangerous!"

Ye Xiao muttered in low voice before shaking his head. It has not been even half an hour when a person at the Late Stage of the Immortal Lord Realm has already died. It could be seen how dangerous this place was.

In other words, the Land of Ice and Fire really was not a place for martial artists below the Immortal King Realm to come. Of course, Ye Xiao was an exception.
