Chapter 1427 (Raw 1417): Gathering of Talents

Without Lei Yun's obstruction, just the four Protectors of the Moon Demon Royal Hall could not stop An Junxi and Shui Lingling, who steeled themselves to break out.

After all, not just anyone could present a perfect counter to An Junxi and Shui Lingling. When these two worked together, their true combat prowess could rival ordinary Demon Crown Scions.

However, An Junxi's will of thunder had not broken through yet, and the opponent managed to close in on Shui Lingling. That was why they were defeated so quickly rather than them lacking sufficient strength.

After a quick fight, the disciples of the Supreme Sky Sect and the Thunder and Lightning Palace finally became the first to charge out of the encirclement.

Shui Lingling and An Junxi released their bated breath. This time, it was all thanks to that ice sculpture. If not for the corpse of that ancient powerhouse, it would be hard to say whether they could escape or not.

The combat prowess of the Thunder Demon Royal Hall's Crown Scion was rather horrifying. Even in hindsight, An Junxi felt a sense of defeat.

Situ Gang said cockily, "This time, you all have to thank me. If not for my quick actions, how could everyone escape from danger safely?"

"What about that ice sculpture, then? That is the Martial Emperor's corpse from the peak period of the Martial Dao. If the Demons manage to snatch it away, that will be tantamount to giving them a huge opportunity," An Junxi said, frowning.

That was right. The ice sculpture was priceless. To them, it might even be as valuable as the Demon Sword.

Only Demons could use the Demon Sword; it was not very useful to the cultivators of the Kunlun Realm.

Situ Gang scratched his head and said, "I really never thought of that."

Shui Lingling glanced at Lei Yun, who was still being suppressed. Then, she said, "How about this: Situ Gang and An Junxi remain here, while the rest return to the sect first and report the situation? Let's see if there is an opportunity for the three of us to snatch the ice sculpture back."

An Junxi nodded and said, "That's not a bad idea. With our strength, it should be rather simple for the three of us to leave amid the chaos."

Hence, the others returned as ordered, boarding warships and flying to the Thunder and Lightning Palace and the Supreme Sky Sect.

Right after the group left, Lei Yun, who had been struggling for a long time, roared. The purple mark on his forehead flashed with light. Boundless lightning bolts descended and ferociously knocked the ice sculpture away.

After all, Xiao Chen was in a deep sleep. Although his Saber Might was strong, no one controlled it, so he could not truly suppress Lei Yun.

Lei Yun was also too careless. If he had used his full power from the start, he would not have embarrassed himself so greatly.

With the great force, the ice sculpture flew away like a meteor. Then, it landed at the center of Dragon Burial Mound with a loud 'bang.'

"Boom!"

Boundless saber intent spread out from the ice sculpture. A strong wind containing a saber's hum blew, kicking up dirt and dust.

Everyone in the chaotic Dragon Burial Mound immediately sensed this vast and horrifying saber intent.

Several cultivators and Demons were even caught off guard by this powerful saber intent and got knocked into the air.

What's going on?

Instantly, everyone stopped fighting, shocked by this saber intent. They squinted and looked at the center of the churning dust cloud. When the dust dispersed and the saber intent disappeared, they finally saw it clearly.

"An ice sculpture?"

"Who is this? Why is he sealed in ice but still have such strong saber intent?"

"I think I saw it before. Earlier, the Supreme Sky Sect's Situ Gang was carrying it. He must have found it in the Savage Battlefield."

"I think this ice sculpture managed to suppress a Demon Royal Hall's Crown Scion earlier. Perhaps a Sovereign Martial Emperor from the peak of the Martial Epoch is sealed in there!"

The thickness of the ice obscured the appearance of the person inside with only the vague silhouette of a person and a throne visible. The aura of the unmelting ice also gave it an aged and distant feeling.

Even if a true expert were completely sealed in ice, their strong aura could emanate through the unmelting ice, allowing others to feel the dazzling brilliance. Without a doubt, Xiao Chen was one such person.

The ice sculpture had been misunderstood from the start. Right now, everyone firmly believed that Xiao Chen was an ancient powerhouse. This ice sculpture that suddenly appeared attracted everyone's attention.

The more everyone observed it, the more they felt this ice sculpture to be extraordinary. It was not just Shui Lingling and An Junxi who felt that way.

Even the Crown Scions who had been laughing at Lei Yun for being suppressed by the ice sculpture could not help showing somewhat grave expressions.

"Bai Leng, you are an expert in the Ice Dao. Can you unleash such ice?"

Suddenly, someone spoke from a black palanquin hovering in the air. That was the Crown Scion of the Celestial Demon Royal Hall, the most mysterious of the eighteen Demon Royal Halls.

The eyes of the Snow Demon Royal Hall's Bai Leng had long since been attracted to the ice sculpture. When he heard the Celestial Demon Crown Scion's question, he shook his head and replied, "I can't. This was something that can be done only by someone who has comprehended and cultivated the Ice Domain for several centuries."

"I believe even the Solar True Flame cannot melt ice of such level. If I'm not wrong, it should be the attack of a senior of my Snow Demon Race during the ancient Hundred Race War."

Bai Leng analyzed and answered honestly. Actually, his initial guess was right. However, due to preconceived notions, he concluded that this ice sculpture was an item from ancient times.

At Bai Leng's analysis, all the Crown Scions' eyes burned with desire.

Everyone originally felt that this ice sculpture was extraordinary. Bai Leng's analysis verified their supposition.

However, they were not really wrong. With Xiao Chen's current physical body and the Cycle Throne, if they obtained it, the value would be no less than the body of an ancient powerhouse, perhaps even higher.

"Good. No matter who it is, our Demon Races need to obtain this ancient ice sculpture. Attack!" the Celestial Demon Royal Hall's Crown Scion said with a regal tone from the black palanquin. These words showed that he considered the ice sculpture his already.

Although there were a few who were reluctant to submit, if a leader had to be elected from among the eighteen Crown Scions, it would be the Celestial Demon Crown Scion without a doubt.

Instantly, several Demons charged towards the ice sculpture.

"This is a senior of our Kunlun Realm. We cannot let any Demon dishonor him!"

At the crucial moment, Chu Yang stood out once again. When Sima Lingyun, who almost broke out of the encirclement, heard this, he could not help getting angry.

Even after this powerhouse, an Ancient Era senior, had been dead for so many years and could not be buried, he was going to be humiliated by Demons. As a junior of the Kunlun Realm, no one would be happy with this.

"Return and help!" Sima Lingxuan said coldly. After making the decision, he charged back with his sword.

After a while, a few more people charged back. They were all outstanding talents of the various lands, heroes who had come to prominence in the golden age. Although they could not defeat the Demon Crown Scions, they refused to submit. If they did not try resisting, they would let down their hot-bloodedness.

The highly ranked Crown Scions watched coldly from the sides, not making a move.

With the Kunlun Realm's outstanding talents and the Demon Crown Scions fighting over it, the mysterious ice sculpture bounced up and down, all over the place.

Despite fire, saber Qi, sword intent, palm wind, or lightning landing on the ice sculpture, the ice did not break at all, showing no signs of melting. Amid the intense battle, it displayed no changes.

However, this mysterious ice sculpture would occasionally send out some strong Saber Might, making everyone marvel even more at it.

Suddenly, the Celestial Demon Crown Scion's eyes opened in the black palanquin. Then, he said something that made no sense.

"They're coming!"

However, the Crown Scions of the Snow Demon Royal Hall, the Thunder Demon Royal Hall, the Shadow Demon Royal Hall, and the Moon Demon Royal Hall instantly understood. They knew whom the Celestial Demon Crown Scion was referring to.

"Are we going to give up on this ice sculpture?" the Snow Demon Royal Hall's Bai Leng asked.

The Celestial Demon Crown Scion's attractive voice came from the palanquin. "Although the Demon Sword is even more precious, if we cannot even obtain one ice sculpture, what right do we have to snatch the Evil Shadow Sword?"

"If we cannot obtain something that caught our attention, we will lose face in the Kunlun Realm."

"Haha, this Crown Scion is itching for a fight and was just worried that there might not be anyone to fight!"

"That's right. No matter what, we cannot sully the prestige of our Demon Royal Halls. We must obtain the Demon Sword. All the more we cannot give up on the ice sculpture!"

These highly ranked Crown Scions were all ambitious people. They were extremely proud and would not easily give up on a treasure that they wanted.

A beam of divine light shot through the dark sky. Following that, the light exploded, illuminating the entire Dragon Burial Mound.

"Orders from the Divine Son: chase all the Demons out of the Dragon Burial Mound. Kill without any mercy all those who do not obey! Everyone of the Kunlun Realm, if you accept the medallion of my Deity Dao Union, you will receive the protection of the Divine Son!"

A resonant voice echoed in the sky. Golden light poured down, and the medallions given out by the Deity Dao Union fell like rain.

Who was here? It was the Divine Son, Di Wuque, leading the Deity Dao Union!
