"What's going on?"
Elder Cui's sudden and drastic change in attitude was incomprehensible not only to Mo Qinglun but also somewhat surprising to Ye Yunfei.
"What is that fellow up to? He just said he wouldn't let you off, and suddenly now he says he can't trouble you anymore. This guy wouldn't be trying to trick you out with such a method, would he? Such a ploy is far too low-level!"
Hun Lao had also clearly heard Elder Cui's words to Mo Qinglun just now and voiced his speculation.
"The Space Teleportation Token can send me to any world within the Three Thousand Major and Minor Worlds. I don't need to enter the Chaotic Void at all. So whether or not he is trying to trick me makes no difference to me."
Ye Yunfei gave a cold smile.
"That's true."
Hun Lao nodded in agreement.
"Elder Cui, just what happened? Did you discover something? Why did you suddenly stop daring to deal with that brat?"
In the distance, Mo Qinglun, his mind full of questions, asked Elder Cui.
"Mo Qinglun, don't say I didn't warn you. It's best you don't provoke that young man in the future. Even if you encounter him, make a detour and avoid him. If you provoke him again, the consequences will be extremely severe; it would be tantamount to destroying your own future! Alright, I've said my piece."
Elder Cui spoke with a solemn expression and then turned and left.
"Why? Elder Cui, why? Does this brat have some terrifying background? But no matter how impressive his background is, can it truly surpass our Reincarnation Palace? Not to mention within the Three Thousand Major and Minor Worlds, even in the Main World, our Reincarnation Palace doesn't need to show consideration for any major power or expert!"
Mo Qinglun asked in confusion.
"Don't ask anymore. Just remember my words."
Elder Cui left those words behind, activated a grand spatial travel technique, and vanished instantly.
"Just what relationship does that brat have with the Palace Master? The Palace Master personally stepped in to protect him. The Palace Master is an Earth Immortal of our era; no one in this entire world would dare lay a finger on someone she protects."
In the distance, Elder Cui secretly pondered.
In the Reincarnation Palace headquarters within the Main World.
Su Qingluo sat in meditation within her palace. Although she had forcefully withdrawn her Soul Power and was no longer paying attention to Ye Yunfei, deep inside, her heart was in turmoil, unable to calm down for a long time.
"Qingluo, I've just received news that the Ancient Deity Ruins within the Skybreak Realm will be opening a month from now. Prepare yourself. By then, not only will various experts from our Main World rush there, but there will likely be many formidable figures from within the Skybreak Realm entering the ruins as well. It will surely be a fierce fight of dragons against tigers."
Suddenly, a transmitted voice sounded distantly, echoing within Su Qingluo's soul sea.
"Mm," she responded.
"That fellow really left. His Soul Power is no longer locked onto you."
About half an hour later, Hun Lao said to Ye Yunfei.
"Yes, let's head to the Ice Realm now."
Ye Yunfei also noticed that Elder Cui was no longer using his Soul Power to lock onto him and felt a sense of relief. He understood well that, given his current strength, he could not handle an Immortal Realm expert. If Elder Cui truly refused to let him go, he would be in serious trouble. Anything he wanted to do next would be difficult, and once he entered the Chaotic Void, he would be in grave danger.
"For now, I'd better not enter the Chaotic Void. I'll use the Space Teleportation Token to teleport directly."
Ye Yunfei thought for a moment and took out the Space Teleportation Token.
Boom...
The Space Teleportation Token was activated, releasing a powerful surge of teleportation energy that enveloped Ye Yunfei and transported him away from Tianyi Realm.
Ye Yunfei had visited the Ice Realm in his previous life, so he knew its spatial-temporal coordinates. Previously, he hadn't directly used the Space Teleportation Token to go to the Ice Realm because he wanted to travel through the Chaotic Void of the Three Thousand Major and Minor Worlds to observe the current situation.
Soon after, Ye Yunfei teleported into a world of turbulent ice and snow. It was a vast continent blanketed in ice and snow. As far as the eye could see, snowflakes drifted everywhere over the endless land, accompanied by biting cold winds. It felt like stepping into a ten-thousand-year ice cavern! This was the Ice Realm—an exceptionally peculiar world within the Three Thousand Major and Minor Worlds. This world was infused with profound ice and snow laws, perpetually covered in ice and snow, extraordinarily cold.
"Da Bing, this is the Ice Realm."
Upon entering the Ice Realm, Ye Yunfei immediately teleported the Ice Demon out.
The Ice Realm!
The Ice Demon surveyed the icy, turbulent world before him, his eyes lighting up. Although it was his first time here, he immediately felt an immense affinity for this world. This environment of billowing ice and snow was perfect for him!
"High-level laws of ice and snow exist within this world. Such an environment offers tremendous benefits for my cultivation!"
The Ice Demon said with delight.
"Of course. Your Ice Demon race originally lived in worlds like this,"
Ye Yunfei said with a smile.
But the next moment, Ye Yunfei felt that something was off.
Under his Soul Power perception, Ye Yunfei discovered that there wasn't a single living being within this world!
"This isn't right. I visited the Ice Realm several times in my past life. It was a very lively world. Not only did the Ice Demon race live here, but many other beings who practiced ice and snow cultivation arts also chose to settle here. So why is there not a single soul now..."
Ye Yunfei couldn't help but say.
"That's correct. I don't know what happened to this world, but it truly has no inhabitants. That shouldn't be the case. Could something drastic have occurred here?"
Hun Lao also noticed that the Ice Realm was completely empty and spoke with confusion.
"Boss, what's going on? Is this world empty? Didn't you say our Ice Demon race lived in this Ice Realm?"
Hearing Ye Yunfei and Hun Lao, the Ice Demon immediately released his own Soul Power to sense the snow-covered continent below. Finding that the white continent indeed held no signs of life, he grew anxious and asked.
"This is indeed the Ice Realm, and your Ice Demon race did live here. I don't know why there's no one here now."
Ye Yunfei shook his head.
"Lately, beings from the Main World have been active all over the Three Thousand Major and Minor Worlds, throwing their weight around and striking at the slightest provocation. Could the inhabitants of this world have offended someone from the Main World and had their entire realm wiped out?"
Hun Lao speculated.
"Roar... Who dares to annihilate our Ice Demon race? I swear I will tear them to pieces!"
Upon hearing this, the Ice Demon grew both frantic and furious, letting out a furious roar.
"Da Bing, there's no need to panic. This world doesn't seem to have been exterminated. If it had been, there would be a heavy scent of blood and many vengeful spirits lingering, but that's not the case here. Let's go down first and see what's really going on."
Ye Yunfei said to the Ice Demon.
