Chapter 1873: The Whole Field Dominated—They

"Heavenly Punishment actually wants to give the Water Realm Domain to Frost Crown?!"

"Heavenly Punishment cultivates the Thunder Origin, so this Water Realm Domain is indeed useless to him—giving it to his teacher makes sense."

"Tsk tsk, this is a domain from an ancient primordial realm!"

"Control a domain, gain law amplification, cultivation speed skyrockets! Such an opportunity—just saying 'give' and it's given?"

"If only I were his teacher."

"Frost Crown Sovereign truly has taken a fine disciple!"

"How is he merely a fine disciple? This is practically heaven-defying fortune!"

"......"

When Xu Jingming's words fell, the Sovereign-stage powerhouses on the ice plain utterly exploded in an uproar!

A Tribulation Initial Sovereign, under everyone's watch, crushed Dust Rock and seized the domain qualification.

Then he turned around and gave this tremendous opportunity to his own teacher!

Such methods, such spirit, such master-disciple bond......

Which Sovereign present doesn't have a disciple?

But who would be willing to hand over an entire domain with both hands?

"This child—unbelievable."

An ancient Sovereign who has lived for hundreds of thousands of years murmured:

"Heaven-defying talent is one thing, but his character is actually so deeply emotional and righteous."

"Frost Crown has truly struck it rich this time."

"How is it merely striking it rich? With the Ice Extreme Realm combined with the Water Realm Domain, she might truly glimpse the threshold of Realm Lord!"

Amidst the discussion, everyone's gaze focused on Frost Crown Sovereign.

That ice-blue figure stood silently at the edge of the ice plain.

Her exquisite beauty, under the silver-white glow, seemed to be plated with a layer of hazy radiance.

Her ice-blue eyes stared fixedly at Xu Jingming, her red lips slightly parted, yet she remained speechless for a long while.

Although Xu Jingming had always said he would help her seize the Water Realm Domain.

But she had always treated it as a joke.

Never did she expect—her disciple had actually done it!

"You, you!!"

On the other side, Dust Rock Sovereign opened his mouth, his handsome face flushed crimson.

His chest heaved violently, yet he could not utter a complete sentence for a long time.

He stared fixedly at Xu Jingming, his pale gold eyes nearly spitting fire!

Seizing the domain, bestowing it upon a beauty—this should have been his script!

But now?

Xu Jingming not only passed the trial ahead of him.

But right before his eyes, he casually handed over the domain to Frost Crown!

This is nothing short of pressing his face into the ice and rubbing it!

"Jingming......"

Frost Crown Sovereign finally came to her senses, her ice-blue beautiful eyes trembling slightly.

Shock, emotion, warmth......

All these feelings intertwined, leaving her unsure what to say.

"Teacher, what are you spacing out for?"

Xu Jingming said with a smile, "Come on quickly—this domain is yours now."

"Good."

Frost Crown Sovereign took a deep breath.

Suppressing the turmoil in her heart, she stepped forward with her pair of shapely, long beautiful legs, walking toward the ice cave.

At this moment, the pressure had vanished with the trial's end—even as an Elementalist, she could walk calmly.

Her tall figure, wrapped in ice-blue tight battle attire, appeared especially dazzling in the ice plain's glow.

Her steps were graceful, and she soon arrived beside Xu Jingming.

"Let's go! I will complete the final handover within Shanfeng!"

In the sky, the Extreme Cold Ice Dragon let out a earth-shaking dragon roar.

The massive dragon body coiled once, then transformed into a stream of ice-blue light.

It shot straight into the highest ice peak behind.

Under the gaze of countless envious and awestruck eyes, Xu Jingming and Frost Crown Sovereign walked side by side into the ice cave.

"Damn it! Damn it!!!"

Dust Rock Sovereign finally could no longer suppress his fury, letting out a low roar.

His fists, beneath the moon-white robe, clenched with cracking sounds!

He stared fixedly at the ice cave entrance, killing intent in his eyes nearly condensing into substance!

Clearly only a little short! Clearly he should have won everything, embraced the beauty and returned!

But now? He not only lost the wager, but his very schemes were utterly shattered by Xu Jingming!

What makes him feel even more stifled is that, after the trial ended, the pressure before the ice cave actually returned!

He now simply cannot enter!

Only able to watch helplessly as Xu Jingming and Frost Crown entered side by side, completing the realm handover!

"My lord, we..."

The black-robed sovereign in the distance spoke cautiously.

"Shut up!"

The Dust Rock Sovereign snapped his head back, eyes fierce:

"Wait! I don't believe they'll never come out!"

Inside the ice cave, it was another world entirely.

The cave walls were entirely composed of millions of years of profound ice, crystal clear and translucent.

Within, pale blue flowing light was stored, drifting slowly as if alive.

Light refracted through the ice layers, bathing the entire cave in a dreamlike glow, as if stepping into an ice-carved fairyland.

But the temperature here was terrifyingly low.

"So cold..."

Frost Crown Sovereign exhaled softly.

The white mist she breathed out instantly condensed into fine ice crystals, fluttering down.

As the supreme sovereign of ice, her resistance to cold was naturally extremely strong.

Yet at this moment, she truly felt a hint of bone-piercing chill.

This was enough to prove the extraordinariness of this place.

"Jingming, you don't seem to have much reaction?"

Frost Crown Sovereign glanced unexpectedly at her disciple beside her.

"It's fine." Xu Jingming gave a slight smile.

Star Core Lei Gang Body Eighth Layer, True Demon Bloodline empowered.

His physique had long been comparable to a walking star.

This degree of chill was indeed nothing to fear for him.

The two continued deeper.

The ice cave twisted downward; the further in, the heavier the chill.

Natural ice crystal patterns began to appear on the cave walls.

Some resembled snowflakes, others like vines entwining, breathtakingly beautiful.

After walking roughly several hundred meters, the view ahead suddenly opened up.

A massive cave appeared before their eyes.

At the center of the cave was a cold pool with a diameter of over a hundred meters, bottomless!

The pool water was ice-blue, its surface utterly still, yet emitting visible white cold mist.

Wherever that cold mist passed, even the air condensed into fine ice crystals, fluttering down.

More strangely, clusters of ice crystal coral grew around the cold pool.

Each was delicate and translucent, refracting a dreamlike luster.

The enormous body of the Extreme Cold Ice Dragon lay coiled beside the cold pool.

Seeing the two arrive, it slowly raised its dragon head, respect gleaming in its ice-flame dragon eyes:

"Honored Realm Lord."

Its gaze first fell upon Xu Jingming, then turned to Frost Crown Sovereign:

"To master the Water Realm, one must absorb the 'Extreme Cold Heart.'

The Extreme Cold Heart is the ultimate cold substance condensed from the origin of the Water Realm.

In value, it rivals a peak supreme treasure!

If successfully absorbed, it brings great benefit to ice cultivators.

It can greatly enhance insight into the ultimate limits of ice, even offering hope to break through bottlenecks."

It paused, a hint of solemnity flashing in its dragon eyes:

"But it is not without danger.

The Extreme Cold Heart's chill pierces to the bone, directly invading the soul.

Once absorption fails, the soul will be frozen.

The flesh will turn into a mindless ice beast, forever sinking here.

You may consider carefully.

If you choose to give up, you may leave now, and I will select another Realm Lord."

The cave fell into brief silence.

Only the faint hissing sound of cold mist rising from the cold pool's surface.

"Master, look..."

Xu Jingming turned his head to look at Frost Crown, handing over the choice entirely to her.

Frost Crown Sovereign's ice-blue eyes fixed on the cold pool, her exquisite face showing no hesitation whatsoever.

"Of course we must absorb it."

Her voice was clear and cold yet firm: "I have cultivated all the way to the supreme sovereign realm.

For millions of years, I have traversed countless secret realms, endured countless life-and-death crises.

The path of cultivation is none other than defying heaven—where is there any opportunity without risk?"
