Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws

"What kind of explanation do you want?" said Chu Kuangren in a calm, indifferent tone while looking at Iceworm Feng.

Having witnessed Chu Kuangren's power earlier, Iceworm Feng could not help but shudder.

It was simply unbelievable that an iceworm like him would shudder!

It was a cold chill from deep within his heart!

"Chu Kuangren, this matter concerns the Frost Dragon Mountain. It has nothing to do with you."

Iceworm Feng summoned up some courage and said.

"She belongs to me now."

"So what? It was through the Frost Dragon Mountain's efforts and nurturing that Iceworm Ru Xue is who she is today."

"I see. Does that mean you people from the Frost Dragon Mountain are planning to snatch away my subordinate now?" Chu Kuangren said playfully.

"From the very start, Iceworm Ru Xue is and will be–"

"That's enough!"

Just then, Iceworm Ru Xue snorted coldly and unleashed a palm attack at Iceworm Feng, who was immediately sent flying.

The crowd of iceworm cultivators was shocked to see Ru Xue attack.

"Why did you attack him, Iceworm Ru Xue?"

"You've crossed the line!"

"Sure enough, a slave will always be a slave! To think you've truly become a slave of Chu Kuangren! You have ruined the image and reputation of Frost Dragon Mountain!"

The amount of respect the iceworm cultivators had for Iceworm Ru Xue had turned into hatred now.

They could not understand why their pure, high, and mighty goddess would reduce herself to a mere slave to serve someone else.

However, they were mistaken the entire time.

Their perception of Iceworm Ru Xue had always been a figment of their imagination and fantasies.

None of them had ever understood the real Iceworm Ru Xue.

The moment her behavior was out of line with the image of a perfect goddess in their minds, they would get angry and resentful. They would wonder why she would not behave as they imagined or wanted.

"I'm going to say this for the last time, Iceworm Feng. This matter concerns only me and my Master. It has nothing to do with you!" Iceworm Ru Xue uttered coldly. Then, she looked at Chu Kuangren and said, "Master, let's go."

"Presumptuous fool," Chu Kuangren blurted out indifferently and ignored them.

Although it might seem that Iceworm Ru Xue was reprimanding Iceworm Feng, she was actually trying to save him and the other iceworm cultivators present.

Otherwise, if Chu Kuangren were to step in, how could those iceworm cultivators stand a chance?

Iceworm Ru Xue secretly breathed a sigh of relief when Chu Kuangren no longer bothered with them.

Truth be told, she could no longer afford to care whether her fellow iceworm cultivators would survive anymore.

After all, she had done all she could to help them.

In fact, she was trying to save Frost Dragon Mountain.

Having witnessed Chu Kuangren wipe out the whole Dragon clan, she understood that clearer than before. If a conflict arose because of Iceworm Feng and the others, Chu Kuangren would eventually have to face off with the Frost Dragon Mountain. If that were to happen, things would surely end badly for Frost Dragon Mountain.

Frost Dragon Mountain was where she was born and grew up…

…

Inside the palace within the depths of the Arcane Deity Sect, Yu Zhi came before the statue and found it was extremely lifelike. Beside it, there were two ancient bronze cauldrons.

Various sceneries and wild beasts were carved onto the cauldrons, making them appear ancient yet elegant at the same time.

However, before Yu Zhi and Qing Feng could admire it any longer, Immortal Sparks started swirling around the statue. Then, a light figure walked out.

It was a woman that looked exactly like the statue, a peerless woman of utmost elegance.

"You're the Nine Heavens Deity!"

Upon sensing a connection with that woman, Yu Zhi immediately identified who she was.

The Nine Heavens Deity chuckled, not denying Yu Zhi's statement. Instead, she looked at Yu Zhi and said, "So, you've finally come, my master's successor."

"The West Ruler Matriarch knew I was coming?"

Yu Zhi was a little surprised. She knew that the woman was referring to the West Ruler Matriarch.

"My Master is a great one that possesses various Embodier Realm capabilities. She can see into the past and future and even capture glimpses of certain individuals' paths of destiny. Hence, it's not surprising that she knew you would come here." The Nine Heavens Deity chuckled.

"I see."

Yu Zhi nodded gently. "If that's the case, does it mean that the treasures left behind by the West Ruler Matriarch here are for me?"

"That's right."

"Is it worth it? Having to sacrifice so many female cultivators just to protect these treasures?"

Yu Zhi frowned a little at the thought of the countless lost souls outside.

"I established the Arcane Deity Sect under the orders of my master. It was a sacred cultivation place for all female cultivators on the Holy Violet Planet. Since they had enjoyed the perks and benefits the Arcane Deity Sect offered during their lifetime, it was natural that they do whatever was needed of them in return. Standing guard over the treasure left behind by the West Ruler Matriarch was their sole mission."

"Besides, the Arcane Deity Sect was doomed to perish in the face of that calamity anyway. So, by exchanging their physical form which was doomed to be destroyed, they gained an immortal soul that would forever protect this place. That was a choice they made," the Nine Heavens Deity explained.

"The calamity you just mentioned, what was it?"

"That was a Great Dao Calamity!"

"Why don't I understand a single word you said?"

Yu Zhi found the Nine Heavens Deity's words vague. 'Do these beings from the previous era have a habit of talking in riddles or something?'

"Well, it's fine if you don't understand now. Once you reach a certain cultivation level in the future, you shall encounter traces of that calamity, hidden everywhere within the darkness!"

The Nine Heavens Deity did say much. After all, telling Yu Zhi too much would not serve her any good anyway. "The treasures left behind by my master can be found in the courtyard at the back. You can go and get them now."

"Alright."

Without asking any more questions, Yu Zhi and Qing Feng went to the back of the palace and found a pool of water there.

The water inside that pool was crystal clear, akin to the surface of polished jade.

It seemed to release a strong aroma as well. It smelled like a mellow wine, intoxicating anyone who caught even the slightest whiff of it.

"This is the Jade Nectar!"

Yu Zhi's eyes lit up.

Other than the Undying Elixir, the Jade Nectar was one of the most sought-after treasures that belonged to the West Ruler Matriarch.

It was said that the Jade Nectar could improve one's physique and increase their cultivation efficiency.

Furthermore, it was known as the most famous wine in the Immortal World. If an Arch Gilded Immortal were to drink a few cups of it, they would surely get drunk quickly.

Right now, a pool filled to the brim with Jade Nectar was before her!

"If I can refine all the Jade Nectar here, my Holy Jade Pool Physique will surely advance and reach its final form, giving me the Golden Jade Pool Physique!"

Yu Zhi got a little excited.

"Maiden Sage, I shall stand guard for you here."

"Very well."

Yu Zhi nodded before she slowly walked ahead until she was above the pool of Jade Nectar. Then, she sat with her legs crossed, channeling her Immortal Core energy, and began to absorb the energy within the pool.

…

Chu Kuangren, Iceworm Ru Xue, and Shi Ying were currently venturing into the depths of the Arcane Deity Sect.

The deeper Chu Kuangren went, the more he could feel something resonating with him.

"Interesting. It seems there's something I need in the deepest part of the Arcane Deity Sect," Chu Kuangren murmured.

Just then, a sudden roar sounded not far ahead.

Two figures were engaged in battle, with sparks flying with every clash of their swords. Immortal Sparks shone while sword qi spread throughout the surroundings.

Due to the impact of the battle, the surrounding walls made out of Immortal Crystals crumbled.

"It's her."

Chu Kuangren took a look and recognized one of them.

It was Luo Yan, the host of the Scarlet Tear

As for her opponent, Chu Kuangren did not know who he was. However, Chu Kuangren was familiar with that person's techniques, which seemed like the Holy Violet Pavillion's cultivation technique.

"It's Zhuo Tianchang from the Holy Violet Pavilion," Iceworm Ru Xue said coldly. "This is the guy who snatched the Immortal Herb and almost got us killed by the dead souls earlier!"

"Oh, is that so? Let's kill him then."
