Chapter 586: Chapter 252: Great Demon

"I can’t be mistaken. The level of that Profound Nether Nature... it’s definitely reached ’Eternal Freeze’!"

Mu Changge flew through the air, his eyes alight with excitement.

’An ’Eternal Freeze’ Nature!’

As someone who also cultivated the Profound Nether Root Technique, he knew all too well just how powerful an ’Eternal Freeze’ Nature was.

’A Profound Nether Nature at the Eternal Freeze Level already possesses a trace of Eternal Freeze True Intent in its very essence!’

’The cold of the Eternal Freeze True Intent can freeze life at its very source!’

A sharp light gleamed in Mu Changge’s eyes as his mind raced. ’Ordinary freezing just turns water to ice, locking a body in place. It melts with warmth, doesn’t last, and only affects the surface.’

’But the cold of the Eternal Freeze True Intent invades and directly extinguishes the internal Vitality and Momentum of things!’

’When plants touch it, not only do the branches and leaves freeze solid, but the life in the roots deep underground is also snuffed out in an instant.’

’If a living creature is struck, it’s not just the body that frosts over. The flowing Qi Blood, the circulating True Essence Demonic Power, and even the very Innate Spiritual Light that sustains life could be instantly ’Frozen to Death’ by this profound True Intent!’

’What’s even more terrifying is that the ice created by the Eternal Freeze True Intent is exceptionally resilient! Without a similar or higher-level power to neutralize it, it’s nearly impossible to shatter with brute force or melt with ordinary flames!’

’For those with insufficient Cultivation, even their Divine Sense and thoughts could be eroded by the cold upon contact, becoming slow and rigid!’

For a moment, his heart pounded like thunder.

’If my Profound Nether Nature could also reach the Eternal Freeze level, the power of my Profound Yin Sword Qi would increase dramatically!’

’More importantly, after I advance to the Sixth Realm, who could possibly stand against a Martial Domain formed from the Eternal Freeze True Intent?’

’The Heavenly Gang Wuji Sect... I’ve been there, I’ve made inquiries. I never heard of any Elder with an impressive Profound Nether Nature... The only one who fits the bill is the Qin Fang that Zhao Yuanling mentioned!’

’...It’s a shame. Last time, he entered the Heavenly Gang Secret Realm, but my Cultivation was too high for me to follow. After that, matters concerning the Three Religions forced me to return temporarily.’

’I never thought... I’d actually run into him here.’

’It seems Zhao Yuanling wasn’t lying... When he fought Zhao Yuanling, his Nature definitely hadn’t reached the Eternal Freeze level. Otherwise, Zhao Yuanling would have died for certain. Even if an Elder had intervened, unless that person personally siphoned away the True Gang, even the Elders would find it incredibly difficult to dispel an ’Eternal Freeze’-level Profound Nether Nature!’

’In other words, Zhao Yuanling’s speculation was correct... That man must have stumbled upon some great opportunity!’

’I wonder if that opportunity is still there?’

As Mu Changge flew through the air, his mind was a whirlwind of thoughts, alternating between excitement and apprehension.

He was excited by the prospect of dramatically increasing his own Nature Attribute Level.

But he was apprehensive because...

What if that great opportunity was already gone?

For instance, he had once known the location of a treasured land, but after talking with Zhao Yuanling, he made a trip to the Heavenly Gang Wuji Sect, which delayed him for a year or two.

By the time he returned to go to that treasured land, he discovered it had already disappeared.

The memory was incredibly frustrating.

Who would have thought that things would take such an unexpected turn, leading to a discovery like this?

He simply couldn’t contain his excitement!

’But he is a First Hall True Inheritance disciple of the Heavenly Gang Wuji Sect, after all. I fear he might have his master’s Battle Gang Avatar on him, which would be troublesome...’

At this thought, his brow furrowed. The situation seemed rather tricky.

But he soon pushed the thought aside for the time being.

’I’ll worry about it later. First, I’ll make contact... then, I’ll slowly figure out a plan.’

Mu Changge’s eyes, which already held a certain Yin Softness, narrowed slightly. A sharp glint flashed within them, his gaze as cold and patient as a venomous snake.

’As long as I can confirm he’s the source of this great opportunity, then I have enough patience and time to slowly uncover the truth!’

He flew onward, but after quite some time, he still hadn’t found his target.

As he was frowning, his gaze suddenly swept down toward the ground.

In the wilderness below, several Wolf Demons were frozen solid, turned into Ice Crystals.

’I’ve found his tracks!’

The glint in his eyes intensified as he flew toward them.

Qin Fang, oblivious to the fact that he was being followed, continued his search for Demon tracks after leaving the disciples of the Golden Rainbow Sword Sect.

As expected, there were plenty of Demons here.

He hadn’t flown far before he spotted a pack of Wolf Demons...

Having found them, there was only one thing to do: kill them.

A short while later, leaving a pack of frozen Wolf Demons on the ground, he once again shot through the air and departed.

...

Over the next few days, Qin Fang continued to hunt Demons, but as time passed, he noticed that their numbers seemed to be dwindling.

’Could it be that people from the other Sects have been arriving and are also putting in the effort, so the number of Demons has dropped?’

Qin Fang couldn’t help but entertain this speculation.

A day later, it got to the point where he only encountered a single group of Demons the entire day... and they were all below the Extraordinary realm.

This led Qin Fang to believe his guess was likely correct.

However, while he was regulating his breathing in the mountains that night, he suddenly sensed something was amiss and faintly heard a stirring nearby.

He flew up and looked down to see several Pangolin Demons covered in Silver Armor emerging from a cave, causing his brow to furrow slightly.

He had been on this mountaintop for several hours without detecting any movement before now.

Who would have thought that three Demons were hiding right here, in the belly of the mountain below?

’Could it be...?’

’...The number of Demons is dwindling not because people from other Sects have arrived and killed them off.’

’But rather...’

’They’ve started to hide?’

This realization caused Qin Fang’s brow to furrow deeply.

’Perhaps the previous Demons were just used to running rampant in the Grotto Heaven World. When they first broke out, they were like mad dogs let off their leashes, naturally running wild with abandon.’
