The miraculous effect surprised even Lin Xun. It was better than consuming a rare medicinal herb, and it did not impact his own dao foundation.

A thought struck Lin Xun.

It can be called a divine item of blessing! It has tremendous beneficial effects on one’s cultivation. If I can get my hands on more then I might be able to break through to the next cultivation level within a short time.

But his journey hadn’t been all peaceful. Instead, there had been dangers everywhere. From time to time, all kinds of fierce birds, savage beasts, and demon spirits would emerge from the vast world of snow and ice, but they were all formed from condensed ice and snow and were not real living creatures.

Even so, they possessed extremely terrifying strength and grasped powerful dao arts and combat skills. If Lin Xun’s spirit sense wasn’t strong enough, then he wouldn’t have been able to avoid those dangers in advance and be caught in many fierce battles along the way.

Still, the black-robed young man was left pale with fright. He felt that he would have been eliminated long ago if he hadn’t followed Lin Xun!

“Fellow Cultivator Nie, what’s so special about the Fire Lotus Ice Mountain?” Lin Xun asked suddenly.

“It is a reverse origin land of the Ice Snow Secret Realm. Every time that the Dao Lantern Festival starts, fire lotus flowers bloom on the ice mountain. They are as beautiful and magnificent as flames.”

The black-robed man then continued, “They are not ordinary fire lotus flowers, but are instead divinity herbs imbued with the profound meaning of dao. If you can get your hands on one, it is no different from obtaining a dao art inheritance!”

The black-robed young was called Nie Yian and was a successor from the ancient sect Blue Dipper Sect in the West Infinity World.

“Divinity Herb?” Lin Xun’s interest was piqued.

“However, that place is very dangerous, and it isn’t that easy to obtain a fire lotus flower. According to the elders of my Blue Dipper Sect, the Fire Lotus Ice Mountain has a remarkable origin...” Nie Yian told Lin Xun everything he knew.

……

Two hours later.

Boom!

From the endless snowstorm, a gush of terrifying and fierce battle spirit rushed out, spreading across and pervading the nine heavens. The ancient and grand power sent a shudder through the universe.

Lin Xun’s pupils shrank and his body tensed up. What strong battle spirit!

“That’s the aura of the Divine Battle Seal! We are close to our destination!” Nie Yian exclaimed with delight.

Although he knew many secrets, it was his first time participating in the Dao Lantern Festival.

Divine Battle Seal!

Only then did it dawn on Lin Xun that Nie Yian had previously mentioned a rumor about a battle seal on the Fire Lotus Ice Mountain that was left by an almighty saint in the ancient era. It had withstood endless years of erosion without disappearing!

At first, Lin Xun thought it was just a rumor, but he was shaken when he sensed the intense battle spirit within the snowstorm.

A battle seal that had survived thousands of years had to be too terrifying!

It was hard to imagine what sort of terrifying cultivation one needed to achieve that.

As they continued onwards, the sky full of battle spirit grew stronger and stronger. It was so intense that it hit their faces like an ancient and powerful blade flitting across the long river of time without eroding one bit!

At the same time, it was a great hindrance to their operation and brought them more and more pressure.

Fortunately, it didn’t take long for them to see a snow-white ice mountain looming in the vast world.

It was extremely majestic. Its tremendous body shone brightly like it was constructed from translucent white jade stones, exuding a biting cold air from the thick blanket of snow and ice that covered it.

The ancient and terrifying battle spirit was precisely spreading outwards from the mountain peak.

To Lin Xun’s surprise, after arriving, the battle spirit grew fainter and fainter, and the oppressive power seemed to have subsided like the tide.

As a result, they smoothly arrived at the foot of the mountain.

It was the Fire Lotus Ice Mountain!

Lin Xun raised his head and studied the mountain. The snow and ice surface resembled white jade, and the mountain cliffs and rocks were jagged. The majestic mountain towered steeply into the sky like a pillar.

“Huh? More people came.”

Near the foot of the mountain, many of the genius talents had already arrived, dispersed across different areas. When they saw Lin Xun and Nie Yian appear, they all raised their vigilance.

“The fire lotus flowers appear very irregularly, and there are only very few of them. The more people there are, the greater the competition,” someone whispered.

“It’s a pity that the aura of the Divine Battle Seal has completely shrouded this ice mountain. The higher you go, the stronger the oppressive force. I don’t know if we can scale it so easily,” someone sighed.

Lin Xun noticed that many figures were standing all over the mountain, seemingly waiting for something.

However, there were more cultivators at the foot of the mountain, and the number of people decreased the higher it was.

“Fellow Cultivator Lin, this mountain is shrouded in the aura of the Divine Battle Seal. The higher you go, the stronger the pressure will be. However, correspondingly, the grade of the fire lotus flower will also be better the higher you go.”

Nie Yan then continued, “For example, at the bottom of this ice mountain, you can only find two-petal fire lotus flowers, while further up, you can obtain three-petal, four-petal, five-petal and even six-petal fire lotus flowers.”

Nie Yian explained, “The higher the grade, the stronger the dao art inside the fire lotus flower.”

Lin Xun nodded.

He surveyed the surroundings and found that the peak of the ice mountain was bare without a single fire lotus flower. He couldn’t help finding it a little strange.

Nie Yian explained, “We need to wait. Fire lotus flowers appear randomly. One may appear on the top of the mountain and turn into a nine-petal fire lotus flower, or one may appear at the foot of the mountain and turn into an ordinary two-petal fire lotus flower.”

Understanding dawned on Lin Xun.

“However, the probability of fire lotus flowers appearing at the foot of the mountain is much higher, but then again, most of them are ordinary. The probability of a fire lotus flower appearing at the top of the mountain is small, but if one does appear, it would be at least a six-petal fire lotus flower.”

Lin Xun commented, “But it seems that the competition here is quite fierce.”

Nie Yian said with a wry smile, “Fortune is obtained from taking risks. Furthermore, a place of such an opportunity naturally attracts competition.”

Boom!

While they were speaking, a battle broke out halfway up the mountain. It turned out that a group of genius talents was fighting for a fire lotus flower that just appeared!

The battle was fierce, with swords and blades constantly flitting across the sky and divine lights beaming in all directions. Even the sky started to change.

Lin Xun noticed that it was a five-petal fire lotus flower that was around the size of a bowl. The stem was as green as jade, and the flower was as gorgeous as the glow of fire.

In the end, the fire lotus flower was captured by a man in a golden robe. But when the battle came to an end, three geniuses were directly teleported away and eliminated!

“The competition is indeed intense...” Lin Xun narrowed his dark eyes. “Are you going up there?”

Lin Xun was eager to act.

“Forget it, I’ll just stay near the bottom.” After some wavering, Nie Yian sighed softly.

He had self-awareness. He had already sustained injuries during the duel with the Fire Serpent Dragon so he didn’t dare to climb the ice mountain and compete for treasures with the others.

Lin Xun nodded and made his way up the mountain alone.

“Oh right, the Divine Battle Seal that envelops the ice mountain has an unimaginable effect on honing cultivation arts,” Nie Yian’s voice sounded from behind.

In truth, he didn’t need to remind Lin Xun at all. When Lin Xun started to ascend the mountain, he already felt ancient battle spirit bearing down on him.

The battle spirit was boundless, powerful, and majestic like the sea.

The higher the altitude, the greater the oppressive force and the stronger the restriction of movement. He felt as if he was climbing with a mountain on his back, and his body and spirit felt crushed.

He had no choice but to mobilize his cultivation base and circulate the qi within his body to fend off the oppressive power. Only then did the pressure on him lessen.

But as long as he continued forward, the oppressive power would multiply, so he would soon have to activate his real powers.

During this process, he truly felt the terror of the Divine Battle Seal. It was unbelievable that the battle spirit left from ancient times could be so terrifying.

However, as Nie Yian said, the oppression of this battle spirit was beneficial in honing cultivation arts.

The battle spirit was pure, ancient, and incomparably majestic. One would find many profound secrets about it if one studied it closer.

“Huh? Who is that guy? He has already reached halfway up the mountain. Only top geniuses can reach that far.”

Some cultivators were surprised to see Lin Xun.

However, Lin Xun looked very unfamiliar so they couldn’t identify him from his appearance.

“There’s another strong competitor.”

Some of the genius talents halfway up the mountain raised their guard like he was a formidable enemy. They knew that no ordinary person could reach that area.

“Kid, you have come late so you better know your place. It will be your turn when we each capture a fire lotus flower. If you dare to act recklessly, then I believe everyone here won’t allow it,” a young man threatened.

Everyone else nodded, their eyes growing stern and ice-cold, reflecting a threat.

A bunch of idiots. At the foot of the mountain, Nie Yian chuckled to himself. How dare you threaten the great Demon God Lin? Are you not afraid of angering him and forcing him to tear you to pieces?

Lin Xun was also slightly taken aback. He ran his eyes over them and said indifferently, “Don’t worry, I won’t compete with you guys.”

They relaxed their bodies and looked at Lin Xun with disdain. They thought that Lin Xun had given up.

The next second, they stood stunned.

Lin Xun was continuing up the mountain!

Their eyes went wide with surprise.

Along the way, Lin Xun had his hands behind his back while his moon-white robe fluttered with the wind. His pace was not particularly fast, but very steady, like he was taking a stroll around a garden.

The geniuses halfway up the mountain all looked dumbfounded before their faces became overcast. As they thought back to their threats and warnings to Lin Xun just now, it felt like a direct slap to their face. They felt their faces burn with embarrassment.

At the same time, they trembled with fear, knowing that if they had provoked Lin Xun, then the consequences could have been disastrous!

After all, a guy who could ascend to the top of the mountain so easily was not someone they should provoke!
