Lin Tong remained silent for a long time, just staring at Wang Junze, as if trying to see through his thoughts.

However, Wang Junze had preemptively laid everything out, leaving Lin Tong with no room to refuse. He couldn't be denied even a brief stay, right? Even if they were not on good terms with Wang Junze, it wasn't wise to make a deadly enemy out of him, especially since, nominally, Wang Junze was still responsible for resource allocation.

"I hope you will keep your promise." With a cold snort, Lin Tong reluctantly agreed.

With a light laugh, Wang Junze seemed unconcerned with the other's attitude, casually sitting down in the snow nearby, but his gaze stealthily fixed on the ice sculpture.

Given his previous experience, Wang Junze understood that the key was to closely observe the ice sculpture and then use sword techniques to activate the Sword Intent within it. Therefore, there was no need to get so close; he just needed to find an opportunity to observe secretly.

Moreover, Wang Junze wanted to see if, when faced with a powerful attack from a Refining God Powerhouse, the ice sculpture would be shattered, which was actually very important.

After all, others might not perceive the mystery within the ice sculpture, but Jing Yuan would certainly discover it.

If the ice sculpture could be directly shattered, then Wang Junze gathering all the inherited Sword Intents from the ice sculptures here would be nearly impossible.

In fact, Lin Tong clearly had no intention of dealing with Wang Junze.

In this matter, Lin Tong also thought very clearly.

Although he wasn't sure what Wang Junze planned to do, as long as the ice sculpture was shattered and the Ice Crystal was taken, Wang Junze naturally had no reason to stay.

Buzz!

In a breath, the sword in Lin Tong's hand was unsheathed again, slashing fiercely towards the ice sculpture.

Raising his eyebrows slightly, Wang Junze's attention was immediately drawn to it.

In fact, this was Wang Junze's first time seeing Lin Tong going all out, and it must be said that the strength of this Lin Family Patriarch was indeed impressive. This strike was powerful, without any unnecessary flourishes, a direct overpowering force.

Furthermore, Wang Junze could clearly sense a trace of Earth Sword Intent from it!

Wang Junze wasn't unfamiliar with this, as Lin Yong had practiced the Earth Sword Technique, although he hadn't comprehended the Sword Intent.

The sword techniques of this kind are not complex, but once the Earth Sword Intent is understood, the moves begin to exude a flavor of great simplicity.

Wang Junze weighed it in his heart; even if he were up against Lin Tong, he might only dare to say he could win decisively by using Strangulation in all out effort.

Boom!

However, at the moment the immense Sword Qi landed on the ice sculpture, a faint blue light emerged from it, effortlessly dispersing the power of the strike.

The key point was that even when facing Lin Tong's attack, the ice sculpture didn't reveal any Sword Intent.

No wonder Lin Tong hadn't discovered the mystery within the ice sculpture; it was too well hidden. Unless one had a deep comprehension of Sword Dao, or like Wang Junze, had practiced Chess Swordsmanship, it was impossible to detect the inherited Sword Intent from such an ice sculpture.

"Patriarch, we can't keep attacking like this. The power of the Ice Crystal is being depleted."

On the other side, several elders from the Lin Family approached Lin Tong and said softly.

Yes, although the ice sculpture hadn't been shattered, those with keen senses could easily feel that as Lin Tong attacked, the power of the Ice Crystal within the ice sculpture was continuously being drained.

If they continued attacking like this, even if they could break the ice sculpture, what they might get in the end would just be scattered fragments, not an Ice Crystal.

Lin Tong naturally understood this reasoning as well; however, thinking of Wang Junze watching nearby, his face couldn't help but turn darker.

"Patriarch Lin, why not let me try, how about that?"

With a light laugh, Wang Junze stood up from the ground and said with a smile.

This change also gave Wang Junze a sense of urgency.

The depletion of the ice sculpture's power implied that it could theoretically be destroyed. Others might be reluctant to harm these Ice Crystals, but Jing Yuan wouldn't care. They couldn't delay any longer.

"What do you intend to do?"

Lin Tong asked cautiously, keeping a wary eye on Wang Junze.

"I'll help you break the ice sculpture." Wang Junze replied casually, "Rest assured, I won't destroy the Ice Crystal, and after breaking it, I won't take even one piece of it. I'll help you for free, how about that?"

"..."

Staring intently at Wang Junze, Lin Tong didn't respond.

Wang Junze's reason was too perfunctory, and it was hard to believe he would help for free. There must be some benefit he had in mind that Lin Tong hadn't noticed, but he couldn't figure out what the mystery was.

"Since Brother Wang wants to try, let him give it a try then."

Suddenly, Lin Yong spoke in a deep voice, "This snowy plain has more than just one ice sculpture; it's a good thing to see Brother Wang's methods."

These words immediately made Lin Tong react.

Even if Wang Junze benefited, so what? At least he promised not to take the Ice Crystal. In this way, there was no loss to the Lin Family, and they could see what mystery the ice sculpture held. No matter how they calculated, it wouldn't be a loss.
