The Cold Ice Flame was a type of Sky Fire. When the heavens and earth first came into existence, the Cold Ice Flame already was around. It had its own consciousness, and it was an extremely special form of life in this world.
The Menluo Island was covered with volcanoes. The God realm warrior, in an effort to try to merge the Cold Ice Flame into his sea of knowledge, used the volcanoes on Menluo Island to try and constrain it. But for some reason, he ultimately failed.
The Cold Ice Flame had been sealed ever since then. Those floating symbols, which they had seen inside the iceberg, were one of the constraints on the Cold Ice Flame.
After tens of thousands of years, the power of the seal had slowly declined. The Cold Ice Flame continuously ate away at the constraint, and finally poked out from the bottom of the sea and appeared on Menluo Island.
The people from the four forces wanted to obtain the secrets of the iceberg, so they kept bombarding and striking the iceberg. This made the already weakened constraining power even weaker, and ultimately let the Cold Ice Flame escape. It formed into thousands of Ice Beasts, which were now roaming Menluo Island, making this land of volcanoes into a hell on earth.
The Cold Ice Flame was a Sky fire. Unless a God realm warrior came by, it would be very hard to seal a Sky fire.
Once the warriors from the four forces realized that it was a Sky fire that hid in the iceberg, without hesitation, they immediately escaped from the iceberg, using their fastest speed to get off the Island.
The Ice Beasts were made from the cold energy of the Cold Ice Flame. On Menluo Island, the Ice Beasts were always being empowered with a steady stream of the Cold Ice Flame's cold energy.
This cold energy made the Ice Beasts as hard as iron, and gave them incredibly fast reflexes. There was also a large quantity of these Ice Beasts, which made it impossible for the four forces to defend against them, so they had to retreat.
Ordell understood about the power of the Ice Beasts. To prevent getting trampled by the Ice Beasts, she immediately opted dug out a cave and hid inside to avoid being attacked by the Ice Beasts.
Even Leylin knew that fighting against the unending stream of Ice Beast is truly a fools errand and even detrimental to his plans.
It had been three days since the seal broke and the cold energy outside slowly got stronger. Menluo Island had fallen completely silent, as if all the Ice Beasts had vanished from this place.
Ice Beasts are formed from the Cold Ice Flame. As the Menluo Island became lifeless, the power of the Ice Beasts would be reclaimed by the Cold Ice Flame.
Leylin opened his eyes from mediation and pondered for a moment, then said, "We can go out to take a look, by now the wave of Ice Beast is most probably over."
"Once the warriors from the four forces escape, they will definitely deliver the news about this place at once. By that time, there surely would be God realm masters, who covet for the Cold Ice Flame, come to Menluo Island from all directions. Once the God realm masters are here, the Menluo Island would definitely become even more of a mess. Berkan, we should leave as you can see this is not a treasure you can covet." Ordell nodded.
'We will see about that.' Leylin didn't agree neither refused, because he knew that Ordell would definitely oppose his idea. It's best to just do what he wants to and talk later.
Leylin cleared away the rocks blocking the cave, slowly approaching the cave exit.
After a short while, the last few remaining rocks were moved aside, and the two walked out of the cave.
Right after they got out of the cave, Ordell face immediately changed, and her expression changed into that of shock, even Leylin had a solemn yet excited look on his face.
Under the moonlight, the world of ice surrounding them glittered like glass. Everything had formed into thick layers of hard ice, and the ground was covered with a freezing layer of ice that was a couple of meters thick.
Penetrating cold energy filled this world. The cold energy was like a white fog, slowly floating above the earth.
The two were in a place covered with ice and snow, and there was not a spot where greenery could be seen.
The entire Menluo Island had been turned upside down. The neighbouring extinct volcanoes became ice mountains, standing tall, and dazzled brightly under the moonlight, giving them a dream-like aura.
In the far distance, all the warriors were preserved in their running poses. But they were frozen into ice sculptures, their deaths forever commemorated by the ice encasing them.
Because of the existence of the Cold Ice Flame, Menluo Island seemed to have turned into an ancient iceberg. Ice and frozen rocks were present everywhere.
Spreading their consciousness out, they discovered there was not a single trace of life. The Ice Beasts also completely disappeared, turning into lifelike looking ice sculptures.
By now, all the people on Menluo Island probably froze to death. It's really hell on earth!
The warriors of the four forces broke the constraints that sealed the Cold Ice Flame because they wanted to know the secrets of the iceberg. In the end, they let the Cold Ice Flame escape its seal and let the entirety of Menluo Island, and the people living in it, be sealed in the ice. Truly a tragedy for those who became collateral damage.
"Crack crack crack!"
An extinct volcano a few thousand meters away suddenly cracked open.
Beautiful figures slowly poked their heads out of the broken cave opening. The one in the lead was that saintess from the Heaven Lake Divine Land, Razia Vulcan.
Behind her, a row of beautiful women from the Heaven Lake Divine Land were all looked stunned. They were shocked by the bizarre changes to Menluo Island.
Ordell frowned, "I knew this woman wouldn't die easily."
Razia stood elegantly in the distance, her face was emotionless. She was wearing a snow white palace gown, the look in her eyes was cold. She gazed a thousand meters away at Leylin and Ordell, seeming curious as to how they managed to survive.
She gazed in their direction for a moment, then she quietly instructed the few beautiful women beside her. After that, Leylin saw two Earth realm women slowly walking their way.
These two women had arrogant expressions, and their fair faces were cold as ice, almost as icy as Menluo Island was at the moment.
These two women looked to be about thirty-something years old. They had long legs and were quite tall. They both had narrow eyes with thin eyebrows and hair down to their shoulders. With their thin waists, they took elegant little steps.
The two women slightly raised their heads, their expressions were cold. After coming this way, one of the women said lightly, "Our saintess wishes to see you two. Follow us."
Then, the two women only glanced indifferently at Leylin and Ordell, then they turned around arrogantly, as if getting greeted by Razia was a blessing to them.
Ordell's bright eyes were filled with rage, and she snorted quietly.
Leylin didn't register any change in his mood, and said indifferently, "Your saintess don't qualifications to make me move towards her. "
"Hmm?" Those two women seemed to have heard him behind them. Their narrow eyes were filled with anger, as they both turned around to look at Leylin. The one that talked first shouted with a cold face, "What did you say?"
"Nothing." Ordell responded lightly. She pulled on Leylin's clothes, signalling him not to do or say anything. Although she knew that Leylin was very capable and an Earth Realm warrior, she still thought the main reason for his defiant nature was the treasure he relied on.
"Just listen to me." Looking at unmoving Leylin she said beggingly and Leylin reluctantly agreed to move.
'It's fine either way, I'll just kill them all together saving me the trouble of finding them individually.'
"Hmph!" The women snorted coldly and fumed in anger but decided to complete saintess task first. She kept her eyes on Leylin and had a brutal savage glit in them, staring at him with bad intentions but Leylin remained unfazed as if they didn't exist.
Razia's long hair was done up in a high bun, and her looks weren't outstanding. But those eyes were like clear water, giving people a chilly feeling.
She stood there frowning, while she looked at Leylin and Ordell, then she said lightly, "When did you get out? Did you find anyone else on the island? Did you see any strange things?"
Leylin didn't even bother to look at her and just kept standing with a bored look as if none of them were worth his time, meanwhile Ordell spoke, "We just got out too, and we know nothing about the situation on Menluo Island now."
Razia looked at her deeply, she pondered for a moment, and then commanded, "You two, go take a look at where the iceberg is exposed. If you find anything, just come back and tell me, and I will give each of you a Profound level weapon as a reward. Go."
Where the iceberg was exposed, was where the Cold Ice Flame was sealed. It was very likely that the Cold Ice Flame was hiding deep underground.
If they went to roam around that area and got discovered by the Cold Ice Flame, they would be dead for sure. There would be no chance for them to turn the situation around.
The people from the Heaven Lake Divine Land didn't have the guts to take the risk and look for themselves, but wanted them to go check it out for them and most likely die. This was truly arrogant and extremely cruel.
Leylin scowled, and started to laugh, "Such domineering actions, truly worthy of your reputation little gal. Tell me what would you do if I refuse to comply?"
"Hmm?" Razia furrowed her brows, revealing her annoyance.
"Boy, no matter what you want, you will have to go." a beautiful, curvy, large-breasted Nirvana realm woman, with a cold expression and icy cold eyes said, "If you don't go right now, then we will kill you right now!"
"Kill me? I snack on weaklings like you. The only reason I am waiting is for all of you to come together so that it would be a bit of a challenge at least."
"You..!"
"Alas my wait is over. " Leylin had his hands folded before his chest as his eyes turned to the side.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh! Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!"
Piercing sounds came from the distance. A moment later, you could see Chris Duncan alone, and that old woman from the Wolfe family holding Wolfe Jarrett in one hand and James in another. They quickly flew in from the outside of Menluo Island.
James owned the Dragon Slaying Sword. The sword sealed the demon beast Hornless Fire Dragon, and the Hornless Fire Dragon was a fire demon beast, therefore it had a special restraining effect on cold things and icy environments. He had brought it along this time.
This group included four people. Chris and that old lady were both in the Sky realm, Jarrett was in the Nirvana realm, and James was in the Disaster realm.
The four already sent out the news, and were waiting for aid to come. But they also worried that there would be changes in the Cold Ice Flame and that there might be mysterious treasures in the iceberg. So after the Ice Beasts all disappeared, they came back out of greed.
"Hey!" Jarrent exclaimed, and instructed that old lady. The old lady landed with the two, and stood beside Razia.
Chris looked down, and also flew down from the sky, landing steadily behind the imposing and aloof Leylin accompanied by a frowning Ordell.
"Zarina, what is it?" Chris landed, he glanced at that cold-faced beautiful woman from Heaven Lake Divine Land that was confronting Leylin, and asked lightly.
"We wanted these two to go and take a look at the situation, but they don't seem to want to cooperate." When facing Chris, Zarina's expression was no longer cold and arrogant. Instead, she put up a flirty smile.
After Chris and the rest heard her words, they simultaneously frowned, and looked at two unhappily.
Ordell's heart sank and she cursed in her mind.
If it were only the people from the Heaven Lake Divine Land, as long as she used her Reincarnation Martial Spirit, they had nothing to be fear.
However, once the people from the Magical Wonderland, the Gunther family, and the Wolfe family got here, she wouldn't be able to do anything even if she used her Reincarnation Martial Spirit.
The Kyara Sea, where the Alaister family and the Omega family lived, was not on good terms with the the Heaven Lake Divine Land and Magical Wonderland from the Black Sea, nor with the Gunther and Wolfe families from the Hengluo Sea. It would be fine if they didn't reveal their identities, but once their identities were revealed, without any powerful warriors by their sides, the possibility that they would be killed would skyrocket.
Once other landed, Ordell had no idea what to do and she knew that they were going to be forced to go to the iceberg, against their will. She was also worrying that Leylin would not act according to script and cause conflict.
Although if they combined their strength they can fight back to some degree but she still would like to bend their head for now and directly flee with Reincarnation Martial Spirit, while in disguise as helpless figure but.. its seem that a conflict is inevitable.
Indeed.
"What's there to discuss!?" Jarrett was the first to speak, he sneered and shouted, "You two, if you don't want to die, go take a look at the situation immediately. Or else we will kill you right away! Hmm, the woman can be spared temporarily, but we'll make her suffer a life worse than death. Do you understand me?"
He grimly looked at the two. As his eyes glimpsed at Ordell, the look in them showed a hint of lust.
Others didn't say anything. James shook his head and sighed, his face full of helplessness. But, in his eyes, there were also some malicious lights gleaming as he quietly looked at Ordell's body.
"Stop wasting time." Chris furrowed his brows and spoke with a deep voice, "I'll count to three. After that, the man will die, and the woman… will wish she were dead."
"No need to count this, the only counting you would be doing is the body counts of the dead corpses after I am through with you all."
At this moment, Leylin otherwise mild aura suddenly morphed into that of a wild beast.
A bloody smell oozed from his entire body with a purple red tint exploding from his skin as he immediately activated Second Sky Of Ramage, along with his Petrification Martial Spirit.
Instantly he was a majestic yet evil dragon roaring and raging towards the heavens!
At this moment, His power shooted off the roof and almost reached the power level beyond that of a Sky Realm warrior. His flow of energy was wild and brutal, carrying an endless murderous aura.
His flesh and blood started to melt, the hidden power inside him seem to revolt and emerged outside which looked terrifying.
Everybody gazed at him in fright. Their faces changed dramatically. They didn't expect that this simple looking warrior could be so formidable and insane at the same time. They all were petrified.
An ominous armor of purple red bloody color emerged from his body, covering his bones. It was vivid and evilly strange. This armor seemed to formed from his flesh and blood, making his aura more imposing.
Leylin grabbed the small chain around his neck and snatched it away as the small Pendant magically enlarged to form a broadsword surrounded with a silver glister along with dark lighting revolving around the sword.
The sword looked like a holy weapon ravaging to ensue divine punishment. It was burning, frightening and releasing an evil dark light, accompanied by the thick scent of blood emerging from Leylin body, he looked like a War God ready to lay waste to his enemy.

The experts from four power were immediately alarmed at they stepped backwards, Chris's fingers were filled with many rings. He stood shocked while his rings flashed up with plenty of colorful lights.
"Fuck!!"
