Immortal Ice Empress: Path to Vengeance

Chapter 522 Ryuu's Strength



A few minutes later, Master Izaria, Ryuu, and Mira’s group appeared above a medium-sized Mid-Grade Spirit Stone Mine owned by the Unorthodox Faction.

Master Izaria sensed two powerful auras in a large mansion 250 meters away from the mine and smirked.

A swirling black vortex, which looked oddly similar to a black hole, appeared in her hand, and with a smile, she flicked it at the building.

“Go and bring those two idiots out of their shells, Little Glutton!” Master Izaria said lightly, but Mira and the others felt an inexplicable chill run down their spines seeing that little vortex.

“…”

For a moment, everything was quiet until the black vortex made contact with the building.

*FOOOOOOOOOSH!!*

The black vortex expanded almost as if it was alive, and thick tentacles protruded out the sides, scooping in everything in the vicinity.

It immediately consumed the building and everybody below the Soul Transformation Realm. The vortex wanted to eat more, but soon a giant black illusory hand appeared in the sky and crashed into it, preventing it from doing any more damage.

“DAMMIT! WHO IS IT?! WHO DARES TO INVADE OUR TERRITORY?! SHOW YOURSELVES!!”

A gruff, angry voice resounded throughout the area, followed by two middle-aged men appearing in the sky.

They looked up and saw eight beautiful women huddled around a tall, handsome young man with a great sword on his back, and their eyes twitched.

‘That bastard! How dare he try and show off here!’

They clenched their fists and stared at Ryuu with even more anger and rage than they were already feeling.๐‘œ๐‘ฃ๐’๐’ฉxt.๐—‡๐“”t

Facing their anger, Ryuu opened his mouth but didn’t know what to say.

‘What? Why are you mad at me? I didn’t do anything!!’ He stared at his Master resentfully and felt even worse seeing her suppress the urge to giggle.

“Did cultivating those nasty techniques not only make you senile but also impotent? Is that why you’re intently staring at my Little Ryuu’s divine sword? Hmph! There’s no need to be jealous. Even if you two could get it up, you still couldn’t compete with him! As the saying goes, the young will always surpass the old,” Master Izaria said with disdain written all over her face.

She looked at the two men as if she was looking at two turds on a sidewalk.

“This bitchโ€ฆ!”

“I-I’ll kill you!”

The two men’s eyes went bloodshot, and they ground their teeth in anger. Their eyes alternated between Master Izaria and Ryuu but soon stopped on Ryuu. The two of them flashed from their positions and immediately appeared in front of him.

“Die!!!”

Master Izaria grabbed Mira’s group with her Qi and teleported away, leaving Ryuu a few ‘comforting’ words.

“Have fun!”

Ryuu’s eyes twitched, and a trace of anger sprouted in his heart.

‘One day. One day I’ll teach you a lesson, Master, for always causing trouble for me.’

However, that’d have to wait as he has two Mortal Shedding Realm experts trying to kill him.

Ryuu reached over his shoulder, pulled out his massive greatsword, and swung it like a baseball bat at his attackers!

*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM!!*

Ryuu shot to the ground like a comet, but he quickly got up, wiped the blood away from his mouth, and readied his sword.

He didn’t hold back when against these two Elders and unleashed his full cultivation base, causing Mira and the others to gawk at him!

“…”

“WHAT?!

“He’s only at the 9th Stage of the Core Formation Realm?! How is that possible?!”

“How could he take a hit from those two Elders head-on and be fine?!”

Even Mira and Rayna could hardly believe what they were seeing. They stared at Master Izaria as if asking for an answer.

“Hehehe~ Well? Isn’t my disciple the greatest?” She puffed out her breasts and stuck out her nose in pride, but nobody said anything and just kept staring at her. What he was doing made no sense and defied the norms of cultivation.

Being stared at so intently, Master Izaria rubbed the back of her head uncomfortably, “Ahahaha~ Little Ryuu is special. Not only does he have a Divine Physique, the Divine Sword Physique, but he also has a unique soul that I termed The Supreme Sword Soul. Both of these give him monstrous strength and unparalleled comprehension when it comes to anything sword related. Right now, he’s not actually fighting them with his cultivation, but instead, the 3rd Realm of Weapon Endowment, [Ruler], or to be more precise, he’s a Half-Step Ruler.”

Mira, Maria, Nova, and the rest stared at Master Izaria with blank expressions, hardly believing what she said.

Divine Physique? Supreme Sword Soul? Half-Step Ruler?!

Fuck! Isn’t this man basically invincible among the younger generation?! Why was such a person wandering in the middle of nowhere?!

Master Izaria chuckled at their expression and said, “I know what you’re thinking, and no, Ryuu is not invincible. Maybe on this Continent he is, and even on the Central Continent, he’d be a genius, but he can still lose if he’s not careful. After all, his cultivation is quite low.”

Then, she turned and stared at Mira with eyes that wanted to look into her very soul. Ever since they met, Master Izaria felt that this girl was unique, maybe even comparable to Ryuu, but she didn’t know why. Even with her power and senses, she couldn’t see through her!

So, she decided to take a little peek. However, she frowned when she couldn’t see anything, but she didn’t want to give up.

So, she shamelessly activated an ocular technique that would allow her to see through most things in this world, but just as she was about to see what was underneath the fog, a low snort entered her mind.

“Hmph!”

Whoever ‘hmphed’ instantly destroyed her technique, and pain flooded her senses soon after.

Blood threatened to drip from her eyes, but she held it in to avoid getting caught.

Mira stared at Master Izaria with a deep frown on her face, knowing full well that this woman had just tried to dig into her secrets.

“I’ll remember this,” Mira said in a neutral voice, devoid of any emotion, then turned back to watching Ryuu’s fight. She didn’t want this annoying woman to know what she was thinking.

Master Izaria smiled bitterly, feeling like she had just made an enemy out of someone who might become incredibly powerful for no reason.

‘Whatever. I’ll let future me handle that problem!’

Master Izaria didn’t say anything back and returned to watching Ryuu’s fight! There was nothing to say, after all. She was not thick-skinned enough to play dumb, nor did she think that would be effective.

Back to the fight, it had only been less than a minute since it started, but Ryuu already had numerous broken bones, gashes, and fractures. While the Elders only had a few cuts and bruises, that was more than enough to shock them.

Their narrowed eyes hardened, and a fierce glint shone in their eyes.

‘We have to kill this brat now before he grows up!’

Not willing to entertain this farce anymore, the two of them utilized their full power! Around one Elder, a river of blood flowed around him in a cyclical motion. Meanwhile, the other Elder’s skin turned red, two horns protruded out of his head, and he grew a foot taller.

“Brat! Since you dared to appear in front of us today, don’t even think about leaving!” The Devil-like Elder said before pouncing at him, while the other one flicked his finger, sending numerous red spikes out of the blood river.

Ryuu’s expression grew solemn, but he still had one more trick up his sleeve.

*VWOOOOOM*

Golden threads appeared out the tip of his great sword, flailing wildly. Although these threads looked normal, if one were to look close enough, they’d be able to see that the threads are actually made up of countless tiny swords!

Ryuu dropped his sword, but it didn’t fall and instead floated next to him. With a wave of his hand, he sent the greatsword at the two Elders.

*BOOOM*

The greatsword broke the sound barrier as it hurled at them, and the Elders’ expressions changed as they actually sensed danger from it.

However, they sneered in their minds at the thought of a Core Formation Realm brat actually injuring them and continued with what they were doing, which was attacking Ryuu.

Ryuu shook his head at their behavior and closed his eyes, ‘Why do they always underestimate me?’

‘Haaโ€ฆ That was exhausting. I leave the rest to you, Master.’

When the greatsword reached the two Elders, the golden threads on the tip suddenly expanded, engulfing them both like a fish in a net.

“What?!”

“It can do that?!”

Suddenly, after the threads captured them, they began shrinking. The two elders used their Qi to try and cut one of them open, but-

“Huh?! These threads can actually withstand my attacks?”

-their attacks seemed to do no damage to the threads!

Before they knew it, the net had already shrunk to a size where they couldn’t move their arms freely.

*Tssss*

“Ack!” One of the elders hissed in pain as he accidentally touched a golden thread. His arm had a deep gash on it that went all the way to the bone, causing his eyes to widen.

“Don’t touch the thread! I don’t know what that boy did, but it can actually hurt us!”

The other Elder snapped back at him, “I know! Can’t you see the deep gash on my leg!”

“Then, how do we get out of here?!”

“I’ll attack. You defend!”

The Devil-transformation Elder nodded and used his Qi to defend them. Meanwhile, the other Elder wrapped his blood river around the golden threads and pulled, creating a few chinks in the armor.

“I got it! Just hold on a few more seconds, and we’ll be out of here!”

However, the net didn’t stop closing, and soon, they couldn’t even move their bodies.

*Tsss*

*Tsss*

*Tsss*

*Tsss*

“Urrrggh!”

“Ack!”

The threads dug deep into, and finally, the blood river Elder couldn’t hold it and immediately unleashed a sea of blood, using up most of his energy, but destroying quite a few threads.

“I did it! Hurry! Get out of there!”

“Got it!”

The two hurriedly left the net, which shrunk into the greatsword right after.

“…”

“Damn! This kid is too strong! We have to kill him now before he becomes an even bigger problem!”

They glanced at Ryuu, who had his eyes closed and shot toward him, but before they could even move a meter, an overbearing aura locked onto them, stopping them from moving.

“Oh? Who were you going to kill?”
