Chapter 2277: Chapter 2273: Greetings, Palace Master

"Senior." Xiao Yi instinctively called out.

But there was no response in the air, just the howling wind and snow all around him.

"Alas." Xiao Yi sighed.

After a while, he took a deep breath, shook his head, and stopped thinking about it.

Xiao Yi glanced at the Ice Venerate Hall in front of him and stepped back inside.

Swoosh...

The moment he set foot inside the Ice Venerate Hall, the scene before him changed drastically.

Originally, the arrangement of this hall was exactly the same as the fourth floor of the Ice Palace.

On all four sides were shelves filled with martial arts books.

But now, in Xiao Yi’s eyes, there was not a single shelf or book.

All that was present were accessible martial arts inheritances and martial arts knowledge.

Indeed, all of the 480,000 cultivation techniques and secret techniques here had directly transformed into martial arts knowledge, residing within the Ice Venerate Hall.

And now, the Ice Venerate Hall was under Xiao Yi’s control.

With just a thought, Xiao Yi could absorb all 480,000 cultivation techniques and secret techniques into his mind and make them his own.

"Forget it." Xiao Yi shook his head, "There’s no use in excessive things."

"The cultivation technique, the Ice Storm Scripture is enough."

"As for martial techniques, the Twenty-four Ice Shattering Slashes suffice."

"And the secret technique, the Ice Illusion Body is formidable enough."

These three could be considered the strongest means in the Ice Venerate Inheritance, aside from the Ice Venerate Sacred Pattern Technique and Ice Storm Devouring Soul.

And, these three were chosen by Xiao Yi himself to be compatible and most suitable.

In the center of the Ice Venerate Hall, there was another inheritance.

That belonged to the Ice Venerable’s spiritual consciousness after it dissipated, leaving behind the inheritance.

Although the Ice Venerable’s spiritual consciousness no longer had any power, it had all the same memories and martial arts knowledge as the original person.

"Thank you, Senior." Xiao Yi stepped forward and respectfully bowed once more.

"Absorb."

Xiao Yi murmured as he absorbed the entire inheritance.

Back then, when he encountered the Ice Venerable’s spiritual consciousness in the extremely cold dangerous land of the Eastern Domain, it was, of course, an evil consciousness.

At that time, he used the Taiyin and Taiyang Eyes to directly absorb that consciousness.

But that consciousness had existed beneath the extremely cold dangerous land for too long, and its mind had deteriorated, resulting in fragmented memories.

The cultivation techniques Xiao Yi obtained back then were only the Ice Venerate Sacred Pattern Technique, the Soul Thought Technique, and the Ice Venerate Sacred Pattern Technique, nothing more.

This time, he truly obtained the real consciousness and all the inheritance.

However, the current inheritance does not contain any memories.

It seems that someone like the Ice Venerable, with such pride, would not want others to pry into their life even after death.

And this martial arts inheritance is complete.

It contains all of the Ice Venerable’s techniques and martial arts knowledge.

"It’s time to leave." Having finished everything, Xiao Yi was ready to go.

Now that the Ice Venerate Hall was under his control, he could enter and exit freely at any time.

Additionally, if any changes occurred to the Ice Venerate Hall or the Wind Snow Netherworld Road, he would be able to sense them immediately, so there was no need to worry.

Whoosh...

Xiao Yi squinted slightly, his figure flickered, and suddenly disappeared into thin air.

...

On the other side, the fourth floor of the Ice Palace.

Several days had passed since Xiao Yi disappeared from here.

The four protectors remained guarding here vigilantly, fearing any accidents.

However, the four of them wore different expressions.

Guardian Bing and Guardian Nangong both looked furious, with killing intent on their faces.

While Xia Yifeng wore a faint smile at the corners of his lips.

And Lu Long continuously gazed at the ancient and dark bell not far away.

"Dawn Bell." Lu Long gritted his teeth, talking to himself.

Beside him, Xia Yifeng chuckled, "Why, does seeing this bell remind you of how majestic you were back then?"

Majestic?

Lu Long’s face tensed.

Xia Yifeng smiled, "Back then, you were dissatisfied with Senior Luoo intervening in the Ice Emperor Palace, drew your sword, and went straight to the Black Demon Hall to challenge Senior Luoo."

"And the outcome was you being trapped inside the Dawn Bell by Senior Luoo for 300 years without seeing the light of day."

"Hmph." Lu Long snorted coldly, "That Luo was despicable to the extreme."

"Despicable?" Xia Yifeng said with an amused smile, "Back then, you were a troublemaker, causing endless nuisance."

"You, a reckless fellow, made a ruckus daily at the Black Demon Hall Main Hall, boasting endlessly."

"Senior Luoo and the Ice Venerate Ancestor were close friends, and he didn’t want to take your life, so he suppressed you under the Dawn Bell."

Lu Long gritted his teeth.

Xia Yifeng smiled, "Lu Long, you are considered one of the exceptional Sword Dao experts in the history of the Ice Storm Sword Pavilion, with terrifying swordsmanship talent."

"Yet, for 300 years, despite possessing the Dawn Bell, you were unable to comprehend its techniques."

"Hmph." Lu Long snorted again, "The Ancient Bell is a Supreme Treasure of the Ancient Emperor, an ancient artifact, and its techniques are not so easily comprehended."

"Even that old rogue Luo, renowned equal to the Ice Venerate Ancestor, couldn’t control Dawn Without Limit for thousands of years."

"It’s only natural I couldn’t comprehend it."

Xia Yifeng smiled, "But Xiao Yi managed to do it."

"Back then, at the Black Cloud Academy, he simply walked the Cloud Ascending Path and, in a short time, passed through it entirely, ringing the bell."

"Later, at the Black Demon Hall Main Hall, he was trapped inside the Dawn Bell by Senior Luoo, but in just one day, he freed himself and greatly advanced the Dawn Without Limit technique."

Lu Long remained silent, his face changing momentarily.

After a moment, he finally gritted his teeth and said, "I admit Xiao Yi’s swordsmanship talent is terrifyingly superior, better than mine. Are you satisfied, Xia Yifeng?"

"Satisfied." Xia Yifeng shrugged, smiling lightly.

"Hmph." At this moment, beside them, Guardian Nangong snorted coldly, "Xia Yifeng, listen well."

"I don’t care what happens to that kid."

"But the fact that he indeed destroyed our Ice Emperor Palace’s holy land, defied the dignity of our Ice Emperor Palace, and desecrated the Master’s fame is true."

"As compensation, this Purple Lightning Divine Sword belongs to our Ice Emperor Palace now."

"I’m not unreasonable. In terms of level, the Dawn Bell is higher and stronger than the Purple Lightning Divine Sword, but I only want the Purple Lightning Divine Sword as compensation."

"Heh." Xia Yifeng chuckled, "If the Dawn Bell were truly Xiao Yi’s alone, I doubt Guardian Nangong would let it slip either."

"It’s just that since the Dawn Bell belongs to Senior Luoo, you dare not take it."

"As for the Purple Lightning Divine Sword, let’s wait for Xiao Yi to come out before discussing it further."

"Is there anything more to say?" Guardian Bing snapped coldly.

Right at this moment.

Swoosh...

The air fluctuated suddenly.

A figure emerged from the space.

It was Xiao Yi.

Almost the moment Xiao Yi appeared, the entire fourth floor of the Ice Palace was in uproar.

All the prohibitions and energies surged instantly.

"His mere presence can shake all the power and prohibitions of the entire fourth floor of the Ice Palace?" Xia Yifeng’s expression changed in shock, "Xiao Yi, have you mastered the fourth floor of the Ice Palace?"

Xiao Yi smiled, "To be precise, I’ve mastered the Ice Venerate Hall."

Xia Yifeng’s face changed, "The Master’s ancestral will for you to control the Ice Venerate Hall, inheriting his entire Ice Venerate Inheritance?"

Xiao Yi nodded.

"Greetings, Palace Master." In the next second, Xia Yifeng quickly bowed.

"Xia Yifeng, what nonsense are you spouting?" Guardian Bing and Guardian Nangong instantly shouted angrily.
