Chapter 1369: Five‑Colored Flowing Light

Ye Liuyun, using the flames, rushed up the cliff edge, immediately swapped his weapon for the high‑grade fire blade that Xie Tianyu had lent him, swung it horizontally a few times, and drove the surrounding snow ferrets away.

Ye Tiandao also turned and repeatedly swung her blade, sweeping across the ice bridge.

They now have no pressure, so the blade intent can be fully unleashed.

The snow ferret at the front of the ice bridge was forced by Ye Tiandao to retreat repeatedly, pushing the ones behind it into the abyss.

Ye Liuyun did the same, unleashing blade intent, Golden Crow Holy Fire, and Heaven and Earth Power, scattering the surrounding snow ferrets.

"Aaa!"

A howl echoed from the Grand Hall of the ice palace.

The snow ferrets, hearing the summons, immediately began to withdraw.

The snow ferrets surrounding Ye Liuyun vanished in an instant, fleeing back into the ice palace to hide.

The snow ferrets on the ice bridge slowly retreated to the opposite bank, disappearing from sight.

"Did Xie Tianhong run outside the cave?"

Ye Liuyun scanned the area with his Golden Pupil, found no Xie Tianhong, and gave up.

"Let's go, we'll enter the ice palace; watch out for snow ferret ambushes!"

Ye Liuyun reminded Ye Tiandao.

"There's nothing inside the ice palace; why do we have to go in?"

Ye Tiandao asked, puzzled.

"Who says there's nothing?

Do you also believe Xie Tianhong's words?"

If there's no energy, what do those snow ferrets use to cultivate?

Where does the ice palace's and the abyss's suction come from?"

Ye Liuyun retorted.

"Oh!"

Ye Tiandao replied with a nod, agreeing that Ye Liuyun's words made sense.

"Let's go!"

Ye Liuyun smiled, brandishing his blade and leading the way into the ice palace.

The courtyard of the ice palace was filled with all kinds of ice sculptures.

These ice sculptures were perfect hideouts for the smaller snow ferrets; their reflected five‑colored light was dazzling, making them ideal for snow ferret ambushes.

Ye Liuyun's Golden Pupil and Divine Sense were fully activated, locking onto the hidden snow ferrets.

Suddenly, two white beams of Technique leapt from the ground toward them.

Ye Liuyun remained calm, and once they approached, he sliced off the heads of the two snow‑white snow ferrets with a single strike.

"Swish, swish, swish…"

The snow ferrets surged at them at lightning speed from various angles.

The white beams, reflected by the ice sculptures and surface, flashed around them like meteors.

Ye Tiandao's Divine Sense was weaker, sometimes even producing hallucinations.

So she pressed her back against Ye Liuyun's, using a Black Tortoise shell for protection.

Suddenly, a five‑colored flowing light burst from the Grand Hall, racing straight toward Ye Liuyun.

The snow ferret of the Tianzun Realm struck!

The attack hadn't landed yet, but the overwhelming pressure startled Ye Liuyun.

He swung his arm, cradling Ye Tiandao, and infused her turtle‑shell shield with Mysterious Origin.

"Boom—" a deafening crash.

Because the ground was all ice and slippery, the two were blasted back to the entrance of the ice palace.

"Phew, this power seems far beyond the Tian Zun Yi Chong realm!"

Ye Liuyun felt that the snow ferret's strike had likely borrowed external force.

Perhaps it was some kind of treasure.

However, he had been focused on the other snow ferrets and hadn't paid much attention to how it was launched.

He set Ye Tiandao down and flexed his wrist.

The previous blow had left his wrist tingling.

Ye Tiandao's left hand was riddled with fine cracks from the shock.

Ye Tiandao didn't mind being held by Ye Liuyun, understanding he had no other intent.

She hadn't shied away from changing clothes in front of Ye Liuyun, and he remained indifferent,

She immediately swallowed a pill that restores True Essence.

The battle on the ice bridge had drained them considerably.

Defending against that attack had nearly exhausted their True Essence.

"Stay here and wait for me a moment to recover.

I'll go in first and deal with those little snow ferrets!"

Ye Liuyun sent a Transmission Voice to Ye Tiandao.

Ye Tiandao handed the Black Tortoise shell to Ye Liuyun for some protection, but Ye Liuyun declined.

"No need, keep it for self‑defense.

Be extremely careful of ambushes!"

Ye Liuyun reminded her.

At the same time, he also used the Mysterious Origin inside the Storage Yuan Stone to fill up the Mysterious Origin he had consumed.

When Ye Liuyun spoke, he was always on guard against that Tianzun Realm sable launching another attack.

However, that sable merely stared at them from a distance, with no intention to attack again.

"Could it be that the distance is insufficient?"

Thinking this, Ye Liuyun, holding his knife, walked a little further inside.

Indeed, that sable still did not move.

This time, without needing to worry about Ye Tiandao behind him, he could also spare some energy to observe that Tianzun Realm sable.

Those low-realm sables could not even approach him, and he didn't need to expend much effort observing them.

Just as Ye Liuyun had just walked past that position, his Divine Sense noticed that the Tianzun Realm sable opened its mouth, and a five-colored stream of light sprayed out from its mouth.

At the moment the stream of light just erupted, he instantly flickered his body and hid behind the stone carving nearby.

And that five-colored stream of light also rushed past not far from where he had originally stood, then gradually disappeared.

"It turns out there is a distance limit!"

Ye Liuyun this time saw clearly that this attack was indeed emitted by that sable, only it had a distance limit.

"But how does it emit such a powerful attack?"

Ye Liuyun again poked his head out, used his Golden Pupil to scout that Tianzun Realm sable, and discovered it was indeed a Tian Zun Yi Chong elemental core.

Suddenly, two sables again charged at him from both sides; that Tianzun Realm sable also opened its mouth, and another five-colored stream of light blasted toward him.

Ye Liuyun immediately shrank his head and slashed a blade intent toward each left and right side.

The two sables were indeed both cut down, but the thick-as-a-water-bucket five-colored stream of light rushed in; the ice sculpture he used as cover could not withstand it at all.

"Boom!"

The ice sculpture behind Ye Liuyun was directly blasted to pieces, and Ye Liuyun was also blown away by the ice sculpture.

Fortunately, the ice sculpture had already absorbed most of the force, so he didn't suffer any injury.

He had never expected that the ice sculpture, which looked quite sturdy, would be so fragile.

Ye Liuyun immediately got up and hid behind another ice sculpture.

This time, possibly because the distance was greater, that sable did not attack him again.

Ye Liuyun thought for a moment, and thus began playing hide-and-seek with that sable.

He hid behind the ice sculpture, inching little by little toward the Grand Hall.

All the sables that charged at him along the way were killed by him.

And each time that Tianzun Realm sable launched an attack, Ye Liuyun immediately flickered his body to dodge.

Many statues inside the Ice Palace were blasted to pieces by that sable, yet Ye Liuyun remained completely unharmed.

After many dodges, Ye Liuyun was already very close to the Grand Hall.

That Tianzun Realm sable also seemed a bit anxious, its attacks becoming more frequent.

"Boom, boom, boom……"

Five-colored streams of light flickered around Ye Liuyun, and ice crystals scattered everywhere.

"Swish!"

He also seized the opportunity, and from afar slashed his blade forward.

That sable, helpless, could only sidestep to dodge.
