Chapter 1260: Bloodline Conversion (1/2)

“The Frigid Depths, the shattered domain of Xuan Yu, the Ice Emperor...” As Yu Suying from the Profound Purity Palace gazed at the frozen lake with a frigid mist rising from it, her eyes suddenly lit up.

WHOOSH!

The huge silver ship from the Profound Purity Palace returned after having left for quite some time.

Standing at the prow of the ship was a silver-robed young woman with an icy aura, who seemed to only be in her early twenties.

“Senior Martial Sister!” she called out eagerly.

Yu Suying was both surprised and elated to see her. “Little Qing! Why are you here?”

Han Qing was Yu Suying’s junior martial sister. She was currently at the late Saint domain, and she happened to practice ice power.

Yu Suying had previously agreed to help Lu Qingchen deal with Zu Guangyao and the others from the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace. The reason was twofold. For one thing, she wanted to hurt the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace. For another, she had hoped to obtain some precious ice-attributed treasures from the Extreme Coldness Palace in order to help Han Qing make her next breakthrough in cultivation.

Yu Suying had complicated emotions towards this junior martial sister of hers.

Her master had taken Han Qing in on her last exploration trip. She had died shortly after her return.

After her demise, Yu Suying had become the sectmaster of the Profound Purity Palace, and quickly advanced to the God domain.

She was more like a master to Han Qing, even though they practiced different incantations.

However, Han Qing’s cultivation talent had turned out to be amazing. Yu Suying had a feeling that her talent in ice power cultivation even exceeded that of the Ice Soul Divine Daughter from the Ice Soul Divine Sect.

In fact, Han Qing had indeed reached the late Saint domain at a shockingly young age.

She was far younger than the Ice Soul Divine Daughter.

“A late Saint domain ice power cultivator.” Nie Tian took a glance at Han Qing from afar, and found that the woman had icy jade-like skin. Her appearance was every bit as striking as that of the Ice Soul Divine Daughter. Even Yu Suying was outshone by her good looks. He wondered who she was.

“Hmm?!” Nie Tian’s eyes suddenly lit up, his life bloodline detecting something.

As he closely examined her with his bloodline power, he noticed that Han Qing’s bones were clearly different than others’. Not only did they carry ice power, but they contained what looked like tiny icy crystals.

Those tiny icy crystals...

A wild suspicion entered Nie Tian’s mind.

Grand Monarch Ice Bones let out a cold harrumph. Holding his Annihilation Bone Spear, he floated to the center of the Frigid Depths and said aloud, “Go now! The Domain of Frigid Depths will be my personal domain from now on!”

Chu Rui didn’t say a word. Instead, he secretly communicated with Nie Tian through his divine will.

“Let’s avoid fighting him now. We can come back to kill him and retake this domain after we’ve dealt with our other problems, or when either the grand elder or the sectmaster return.

“Besides, the Remote Beginning Heavenly Sect have entered the Domain of Heaven Python. They’re not easy to deal with. Delay means potential trouble.”

Chu Rui tried to persuade Nie Tian to restrain himself for now. Once they solved their other problems, they could come back to deal with Grand Monarch Ice Bones.

Mo Qianfan and Yin Xingtian also fixed their eyes on him.

Nie Tian nodded and said, “Alright, let’s get out of here... for now.”

Immediately afterwards, he flew towards the huge silver ship from the Profound Purity Palace, escorted by Yin Xingtian.

Mo Qianfan and Yu Suying were also vigilant, lest Grand Monarch Ice Bones surprise them with a strike.

Grand Monarch Ice Bones snorted coldly. “It’s hard to say whether your sect itself will be able to survive this tribulation. Perhaps the other three great sects have also noticed the existence of that secret force. It won’t be long before the entire human world is plunged into chaos.”

Finally, Nie Tian and the others safely returned to the huge silver ship from the Profound Purity Palace.

As Grand Monarch Ice Bones spoke, Lu Qingchen and the others from the Extreme Coldness Palace remained silent, knowing that this wasn’t a good time to insult Nie Tian and the others.

“Let’s get out of here, Sectmaster Yu,” Nie Tian said.

Yu Suying nodded and gave the order with a wave of her hand. Then, the huge ship that had been partially dented by Grand Monarch Ice Bones’ fist strike sailed off, giving rise to loud rumbles.

Han Qing frowned slightly. With a curious look in her bright eyes, she got a measure of Nie Tian. “So you’re Nie Tian, the seventh Son of the Stars of the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace my senior martial sister told me about? But you’re only at the Soul realm.”

“His actual battle prowess far exceeds his cultivation base,” Yu Suying said.
