"The iceberg is going to explode soon enough, at most in two days. It's power has nearly been spent from all the bashing. We should step back for a while."

"Huh? Why? If you want to acquire the item underneath that iceberg shouldn't you stay, it's best time to snatch it."

"It's not that easy and more importantly, these from the four great powers won't let other stay for longer. It's better to confront them after the item is revealed than now so, we would step back but keep an eye over things."

"You want to make them complacent!"

"Well in a way they are wary of us, especially those from the Gunther family and won't they really not make trouble with so many supporters if we are in plain sight? They might still wanna deal with us afterwards despite of us going away but then, so be it! I'll make them eat shit!"

"Killing the problem in its bud huh."

"Something like that, anyway let's go."

"Okay, I got it."

At noontime.

After some recovery, the experts from the four big groups were all ready to make trouble again.

After discussing amongst themselves for a while, Wolfe Jarrett came to the front, with an icy face, and spoke in a cold voice, " You vagabond warriors, leave now! There will be an even greater earthquake soon. If you don't want to die, then leave now."

Beside Jarrett, the other warriors from the Wolfe family were all gazing at the freeloaders with murderous expressions.

James cupped his hands and smiled, saying to them, "Everybody, it is really dangerous here. For the sake of your own lives, please leave now. You have all reached your current realms after struggling throughout all these years. Don't waste it on something worthless."

Four Nirvana Realm warriors at were standing at the side of James Gunther side, with rigid faces.

"They are driving them away as you predicted." Ordell from far away saw the commotion and although she couldn't hear them, from the tension she instantly deduced.

"These four big groups want to share all the treasures amongst themselves. They know that the iceberg shall break soon, and so, before that happens, they want to clear the site so that they don't have to share with anyone else."

Leylin smiled carefree, kept looking at those people.

Chris from the Magical Wonderland was the next one to speak, with a big smile he said, "Everybody, it's already enough that you were able to watch everything till now. Please evacuate, this is your last chance."

Though what he said could be said to be considerate, his eyes were clearly saying something else, a threat.

Razia Vulcan, from the Heaven Lake Divine Land, was silent, and in a meditative posture, as she was still recovering from some injuries. The members of the Heaven Lake Divine Land were observing everything with cold faces.

There were still a few warriors, some fifteen hundred meters away from the iceberg, showing their unwillingness and anger, but they said nothing.

"Such drama, without power one does not have the authority to get any share. All they can do is escape with their tail tucked between their legs and probably linger around like scavengers waiting for an opportunity."

"So by that logic, what are we?"

"We are two good looking people, who look exceptionally great together." Leylin said in all seriousness with a frowning face, Ordell was firstly stunned but then she immediately blushed wine red.

"You.. What are you saying!?"

After a short period of silence, those people started leaving the area, sighing heavily and cursing.

"Those two!" James's scorching eyes fell on Leylin and Ordell and he sneered, "What should we do about them? I saw that guy blocking those stray crystalline rays effortlessly and somehow easily resist such a commotion, even during the intense earthquake they didn't move an inch."

"They left before everyone but are still standing at the periphery, must have some nefarious plans!"

Jarrett Wolfe smiled disdainfully with coldness looking at Ordell and Leylin, and shook his head, "They don't seem anything special, they most probably have some treasure, must be some young experts from an extraordinary background. No need to pay them any heed."

"No, We should deal with them first and drive them away, no matter who they are, thay can't resist the combined will of us four." James said arrogantly.

"They aren't worth anything, let's just continue. They were smart enough to get lost."

"Uncle, those are probably the ones who attacked and hijacked the Yin Yang wonderland, they must have extraordinary ability to do that in such a way that Yin Yang Wonderland was left with no way to follow them."

"I see." Jarrett turned his eyes staring at the two seemingly godly couple and said coldly," We will deal with them afterwards, it's not like they have anywhere to run."

"Yes." James grinned, "That man and woman were quite audacious, maybe they have something in their hand. But, since Uncle is with us, they can't fly away. Before we hand them to the Yin Yang Wonderland, I want to... talk with that woman."

Gunther James's eyes were glistening in lust.

"Little James, you'reso naughty." Jarrett beamed, but showed no concerns, "That gorgeous lady has really a hot figure. It's okay with me if you play with her, but you can't be serious about it. You are engaged to Little Daisy, and if she finds out about this, I can't do anything to help you."

"Stop kidding me, Uncle. You know me." James smiled in embarrassment.

"I am reminding you because I know you too well." Wolfe Jarrett showed a fake smile.

James cupped his hands in front of his chest and assured, "I know Uncle cares about me. Don't worry, I won't go too far."

"Hmm." Jarrett nodded.

...

The two stood in a ditch, some three thousand meters away from the iceberg. They could only see a small part of the iceberg but it was enough for Leylin to watch everything crystal clear, he could even make sense of their conversation.

Leylin scoffed filled with deadly coldness.

"Do you think they are very aggressive?"

"Yeah, but it's a fact that those with the strongest fist make the rule."

Ordell beamed, "Your Alaister family has done so many things that are even more aggressive! If the three Shura Kings of your family were here today, those people wouldn't get a say in anything. Hehe, your family alone is enough to drive these four powers away altogether!"

"They make me proud then."

"If the Alaister family experts were here, they would have cleared the site even before attacking the iceberg. Only those who could survive a hit from the experts from the Alaister family would have a chance to share in the secrets of the iceberg with them. They would torture the four powers first, then only, possibly, allow them to join in."

"Understandable, you make deals with your equal not with sheeps and pigs."

"Alaister blood definitely flows through your veins."

"Thank you, but something tells me you don't mean that as a compliment. Anyway, I am me and they are them. I have my own ways to conduct my business."

"With such an arrogant demeanor, strength is a must. Alaister family must be one of the top powers among the fifteen powers in the Endless Sea?"

"Definitely! It could be ranked No.3 or No.2!" Ordell said in a heavy tone.

"They would be No. 1 soon enough after I join the Alaister Family."

"Bang bang bang!"

Just then, a thunderous noise came from the direction of the iceberg.

The sky was filled with dazzling lights, and all sorts of treasures fell upon the iceberg, striking deeply into it.

After a period of serenity, the experts from the four powers struck again!

From a long distance away, one could only see a few of the mysterious symbols on the iceberg, which were becoming dimmer and dimmer, reaching the brink of not existing at all.

"They have started again." Ordell spoke in a serious tone.

"Yeah." Leylin nodded.

Deafening sounds ceaselessly came from the iceberg, the latter was producing more crystalline ripples with cold energy.

Even at a distance of three thousand meters, Ordell could still feel the increasing chill.

More and more strings of light gathered around the iceberg, and, gradually, those mysterious symbols began to shimmer.

Finally, one after another, these mysterious symbols started exploded on the iceberg.

The iceberg, of which just a mere tip was visible, had many cracks appearing on it. More crystalline ripples and cold lights shot out from it, make the crowd quite busy.

"ka ka ka!"

From inside the iceberg, a huge explosion erupted, while a stream of freezing air swept over the entire area.

Boom! The sound of ice cracking gained in volume. Mountains collapsed and volcanoes, once again, erupted and started spewing lava, scorching the surrounding earth.

The ground shattered into great chasms, some even having numerous icebergs, of which only the tips could be seen. The land seemed to be filled with countless icebergs.

The white ripples from the iceberg increased in density, carrying frigid air that was ten times colder than the surrounding area! The vibrations from the earthquakes had slowed down but the ground was now completely covered with a blanket of cold air. Even the lava, which was deep within the chasms, was cooling.

The ripples continued forming around the iceberg. The alarming cold air was still moving quickly, even though it was at such a low temperature. The trees, which were uprooted from the ground due to the earthquakes, all started turning into ice crystals, glittering all over on the ground. As the cold ripples propagated throughout the island with an alarming speed, similar scenes could be seen everywhere.

"Craaaaaaack!" By now, the iceberg was almost completely destroyed. At the same time, numerous small ice cones started forming on the ground. In less than a minute, these cones turned into some strange type of ice demon beasts, which were shaped like leopards! These demons were each three to five meters long, their bodies all flashing in the bright sunlight, creating a very serene atmosphere.

It did not take the beasts much time to gather into a group of more than a hundred. These ice demon beasts, though looking deprived of life, glinted blindingly under the sunlight, and would pounce down upon the humans nearby once they came into form.

More frighteningly, these ice demon beasts were even ten times colder than the air ripples!

There was a nip in the air as each ice leopard leaped up, and the air seemed to freeze wherever they passed, making a strange muffled sound. The iceberg kept cracking open, with more and more ice demon beasts shooting out. Sunlight trembled on them, and among the warriors of the four powers there came noises of fierce fighting. The ravines also glittered with crystal light, as if the icebergs down there were also producing something.

Finally, the cracking of the earth ended. By this time, a hundred thousand demon beasts had come into being, shooting up out of the ground like a swarm of locust.

"Well well, it's much more fierce of a counter attack than I thought."

"Move! There are too many of them for us to resist. The beasts carry with them an overpowering coldness. Let's run away!" Ordell exclaimed after checking the beasts with her soul consciousness, her face grave and nervous.

"Ah!!!" Far away, some warriors from the four powers were besieged by the ice demon beasts. Strangely enough, the attacks they launched did not seem to do anything, not even being strong enough to wound the beasts' bodies. Warriors began to be ripped to pieces by the beasts, their bodies a wretched sight to behold.

Faced with such a horrible situation, Wolfe Jarrett, Chris Duncan, James Gunther and the others were thrown into a panic. Who would care about the secrets of the iceberg at this moment? Thus the experts from the four big groups fled like the wind, one after another.

Seeing that even the strong guys of the four powers had chosen to run for their lives, there was no ground for others to linger. Therefore, in a great haste, everyone retreated.

'Although I can protect myself from this with all my defensive methods but Ordell would be surely dead. Better hide and avoid unnecessary trouble.'

The ice demon beasts did not only look like leopards - they moved with the same agility and speed. Running wildly in this ice-land, the beasts outran many warriors of the Earth Rank. The straggling warriors near Leylin, who had also stayed away from the iceberg, were now seized by terror, shrieking and running desperately.

"It's the Ice Beasts! The Ice Beasts! I've seen them on an ancient scroll! These are one hundred percent Ice Beasts controlled by the Cold Ice Flame!" Some distance away, an elder warrior shouted like crazy, his face covered with terror. At the Third Sky of Disaster Realm, he seemed more intent on shouting rather than running, and the gap between him and the leopard-beasts quickly shortened. Soon his figure was lost in a sea of ice beasts.

Bitter cries reverberated in the sky above the area where the elder warrior had shouted.

The name of "the Ice Beasts" registered something in Ordell's mind, and her delicate body giving a shudder that compounded the hint of terror just crossing her eyes.

Frightened, she cried out, "Follow me, quickly! "

Suddenly, several forms whizzed past above their heads. Leylin looked up, and found that the high-ranking warriors of the four powers were flying towards the gate of the Munro Island in anguish, and, in their hands, they were clutching as many of their fellow men as possible.

James was grabbed by the Sky-rank warrior of the Jarrett in one hand, and around his body colorful lights glowed.

Leylin and Ordell stopped abruptly before a dead volcano, some four or five thousand meters away from the icebergs. The green ring on her finger glittered, and out came a silver awl.

Ordell instilled her Profound Qi into the small gadget. The awl emitted glaring silver lights that drilled hard into the stone of the dead volcano. In a minute, the rocks were crushed, and crumbs of stone were blown out into the air around them.

"Ordell, my method would be much faster you know."

"It might be, but you need to save your strength."

"It doesn't really matter."

"Well I don't care, I don't want to fell useless!"

A few moments later, a deep hole was dug out! Ordell went into the hole without hesitation and motioned for Leylin to come along.

Leylin caught a glimpse of the dead corpses of many warriors that had been ripped open by the beasts.

Meanwhile, some ten-odd ice beasts, without the slightest signs of life, were rushing to this cave with overwhelming coldness.

Without thinking, Leylin rushed over and used his earth spell to collect multi rocks the size of a millstone, and blocked the entrance to the cave.

Under his spell, Leylin tightly blocked the hole, leaving not a crack for light to come in.

In a few minutes, the two of them made it to as deep as thirty meters into the cave, leaving a hundred rocks behind them to block the entrance.

Bang! Bang!

Violent knocks came from the entrance, suggesting that the ice beasts had found their way to the cavern and were now trying to barge into it by force. However, the rocks that stood between the entrance to their current spot was extremely sturdy and was repairing on itself with Leylin elemental manipulation. With so many rocks, even the ice beasts found it a challenge to break through the entrance.

However, these beasts did not abandon hope until half an hour later, when the booming noises at the entrance finally subsided.

"I think we are safe for now." Wiping the sweat from her forehead, Ordell let out a soft sigh, and then uncovered her veil. The delicate cheeks were gleaming with a sheen of sweat.

Ordell seemed fatigued. After storing the small awl away, she gasped a bit, then sat down on the ground, smiling bitterly, "we've really had a tough time."

"Truly troublesome, it's no wonder this whole place was submerged into ice." After seating himself next to the girl, Leylin said.

Ordell was surprised as she turned her head slowly, and asked, "Do you know why this whole place turned into an iceberg?"

"Yes, it's the Cold Ice Flame."

The Cold Ice Flame is a type of the Sky Fire! There is three kinds of fire: Sky, Earth, and Mortal.

The Mortal Fire, humans are born with it, and practically a kind of martial spirits. The Polar Ice Flame Martial Spirit of the Crystal Clan is an example. And then the Earth Fire. It's deep down in the volcanoes a million years old, and it's a flame with frightening power, but no life. It can be used to make pills and weapons - absolutely horrible. And lastly, there's Sky Fire. It's a flame that has existed since the earth and the heavens were made, and is the most powerful of the three kinds, 'cause it's alive and has consciousness! A living wonder in the world!

"How do you know about the Ice Cold Flame?"

"I may not look it, but I love to study. I have been studying ancient scripture for all my life. Although the Merchant Union is not as rich in resources and talent than Endless Sea, we still have a considerable accumulation of knowledge."

"I see." Ordell nodded, and cleared up, "As you have guessed it contains exactly one subdivision of the Sky Fire - the Cold Ice Flame. The finest cold flame in the heavens and the earth. It is alive, and wherever it goes, the land will be covered with vast icebergs and irresistible cold air. "

According to legends, strong warriors above the God Rank can absorb the Sky Fire into the soul for their own use, thus obtaining an invincible power. However, it's easier said than done. The Sky Fire is not born for people to absorb. To integrate into your soul, you need not only a basic rank of God, but also every kind of the rarest materials. Above all, you need to captivate the Sky Fire first. One can assume the difficulty is beyond imagination.

During the tens of thousands of years of the Endless Sea's history, myriad legends have told about powerful warriors who had made an attempt at this grand ambition. But all of the stories ended up a tragic, with the warriors being eaten up by the Sky Fire, their bodies and souls destroyed. One thing to remember: once the Sky Fire gets incorporated into the human soul, the owner's soul consciousness will be as powerful as the Fire itself.

Unconquerable among all the same-level warriors. A warrior of the First Sky of Spirit God Realm once absorbs the Sky Fire successfully can literally beat all powerful warriors of the Second and Third Sky of the same realm. The latter does not stand a chance in front of him, and can even be killed in a second!

As the legend goes, once the soul consciousness absorbs the Sky Fire, it will undergo a mutation. But about mutation, nobody knows. The soul consciousness becomes extremely horrible, able to burn the opponent's in a second! And to destroy one's spirit and soul? Only a breeze is needed!

In the record of the Endless Sea, there seemed to be two warriors who made it. One is at the Spirit God Realm, and the other True God Realm. They carried the world before them, and all the same-level warriors trembled at their feet. They dominated their realms.

The Ice Cold Flame was probably sealed by someone who failed to absorb it.
