Chapter Fifty-Four Ice Nine Heaven

  Ice Nine Sky

  Li Beichuan finally couldn't withstand Zhou Yuan's pressure, and with a thud, he knelt to the ground. At this moment, the dignity of being one of the strongest disciples was all abandoned by him, because he didn't want to be crippled by Zhou Yuan, and he still wanted to have an even higher realm and stronger power in the future.

  However, if one finger is cut off by Zhou Yuan, it will definitely have a great impact on future cultivation, and the boundary will be difficult to improve again. For example, for a Taoist priest, if the hand holding the sword is cut off one finger, it will definitely have a great impact on the display of magic and swordsmanship.

  So, a single finger chop, seemingly not a heavy punishment, but it has a huge impact on future cultivation. Moreover, Zhou Yuan's burst of killing intent does not allow Li Beichuan to be fearless and unafraid.

  "If you offend me and the people around me again, your fate will be sealed, with no escape, not even Ice Nine Heaven can save you. I believe he won't risk offending a precious Lei system cultivator like me for someone as insignificant as you. You should understand this point yourself!!" Zhou Yuan said sternly.

  Li Beichen nodded repeatedly, his voice trembling as he said, "I understand, I understand. From now on, I won't bother you again. If I had known that you were the Lei system mage who has been making waves recently, I wouldn't have dared to come and disturb you even if you killed me."

  Zhou Yuan nodded, since the other party had said so much, he wouldn't continue to pursue it further.

  "Get out of here and don't show up in front of me again."

  Li Beichen responded with a sound and quickly escaped from the scene.

  Disturbed by Li Beichen, Zhou Yuan and the others also lost interest in eating and drinking, so they paid the bill and left.

  Back in the courtyard, Zhou Yuan continued to cultivate as usual. He had an inexplicable yearning for power, although he already had some strength and was considered one of the strongest among his peers. However, Zhou Yuan's goal went far beyond that - he sought a higher realm and even greater power.

  In the Zhen Wu Academy, strong people are as common as clouds. There are countless people like him, and now he is somewhat famous in the Zhen Wu Academy. As a rare thunder system mage that appears only once in a thousand years, this reputation will inevitably bring him endless trouble.

  After all, there will be many people who will come to challenge Zhou Yuan, whether in the name of sparring or out of jealousy, but they will all bring trouble to Zhou Yuan.

  With his current cultivation base, it's definitely not enough. The Cultivation Base can only be considered as the entry level of a mage, and cannot be considered strong. At least, he needs to reach the level of Bingjiu Tian and Lingkong Xuvu, the Void Crossing Realm, in order to be considered strong, and to have a place in the True Martial Academy.

  So, time is still very pressing for Zhou Yuan now.

  Moreover, he was eager to break through to the Golden Elixir realm. Only then would the head of the institute, Liu Taibai, openly accept him as a disciple. This way, in the True Martial Academy, he would have some backing and wouldn't be bullied by others.

  Ideas revolved, wandering in the void, the elite of thunder and lightning were attracted by Zhou Yuan and then entered his body, roaming freely, constantly strengthening his physical organs, while his yuan power was also growing slowly.

  Gradually, after two hours, the yuan force in Zhou Yuan's body was already saturated, and his strength had made a breakthrough, but there was still a long way to go before breaking through the boundary.

  "Alas, the Golden Core realm is not easy to break through. With my current cultivation level of spellcasting, if I were to exert all my strength, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to sustain it for long. The spell would exhaust the yuan energy within me. But if I were to break through to the Golden Core realm, the yuan energy would condense and form a golden core, transforming into a solid state, storing even more yuan energy, making it even more majestic. At that time, my strength would increase exponentially. However, breaking through to the Golden Core realm is not so easy. Without the guidance of a master, relying solely on one's own exploration, it's difficult to break through to the Golden Core realm. How am I supposed to obtain this Golden Core technique?" Zhou Yuan shook his head in distress.

  "Huh, how did the temperature drop so much?" Suddenly, Zhou Yuan shivered and tightened his clothes. Although it was early spring now, the weather was still cold, but it shouldn't be this cold. This made Zhou Yuan feel a sense of abnormality.

  "It's no wonder you're a rare and exceptional Lei system master, you're indeed formidable. You've even detected such a subtle change in temperature... it's not simple at all! No wonder my people have fallen into your hands three times already!"

  Suddenly, a hollow voice came over, filled with chill, and then, a white figure slowly floated down from the void.

  Zhou Yuan walked out of the room, and at the same time, Luo Shui Tian and Feng Ao Xue also came out.

  They were all shocked when they saw this man descending from the void.

  "A strong person who can cross borders with ease, this is terrible! Zhou Yuan might be in trouble now!!" Feng Ao Xue thought anxiously.

  Luo Shui Tian was also shocked when he saw this person, "It's actually you, Bing Jiutian. You're so impatient, coming to find Zhou Yuan so quickly?"

  This person quickly descended from the void, and Zhou Yuan also completely saw this person's appearance. White clothes, white hair, even his skin was exceptionally pale, with a handsome face, he didn't look like a man at all, but rather a beautiful woman.

  "Are you Bing Jiutian?"

  Bing Jiutian nodded slightly, his face calm as he said, "That's right, I am Bing Jiutian, the young master of the Ice King Manor."

  Zhou Yuan's face was solemn as he said, "I only captured two of your low-ranking cultivators and a few Gathering Yuan Realm cultivators. How is it that such a small matter has provoked you to personally come and find me?"

  "It's not all about those things, those people are indeed from my Ice King Palace, usually under my command, doing tasks for me, but I wouldn't be so concerned about their affairs, nor would I come to find you for their sake. This time, I'm just here to see the legendary Thunder System mage that appears once in a thousand years, purely out of personal curiosity!" Ice Nine Heavens said with a smile.

  The more he was so calm and gentle, the more Zhou Yuan felt that something was off, feeling that Bing Jiutian was not a good person to mess with.

  Suddenly, without warning, Ice Nine Heaven pointed at Zhou Yuan and shot out an ice crystal, which instantly arrived in front of him.

  Zhou Yuan was greatly shocked, he could feel the chill emanating from this ice crystal, if he were to be splashed by it, he would definitely suffer a great deal of harm. This Ice Nine Heavens, spoke lightly, seemingly without malice, but had actually made his move in an instant, although it was just a casual strike, this move posed a huge threat to Zhou Yuan.

  After all, there is a gap in strength between the two people.

  One transcends the void and crosses boundaries, one masters the realm of techniques. The gap between them cannot be bridged by reason or calculation. Even a hundred cycles would not make one an opponent worthy of Ice Nine Heaven.

  Everyone, I went back to my hometown yesterday and just came over today, so there's only one chapter for both yesterday and today. Sorry about that, but starting from tomorrow, updates will return to normal as usual.
