Message from Ice Island.
Even some of his mainstay Atmospheric practitioners were rumored to have been killed by one mythological creature—the Mermaid.Patriarch Wux was truly distraught by the back-to-back defeats. Not to mention the loss of the Fading Wings of Dreams artifact, a gift from Lord Yu-che. All the resources and weapons that Lord Yu-che had given him were high-grade items.All those favors were in support of the leading Wux Sect Clan in the Silver Screening Continent.Patriarch Wux sighed slowly, seemingly afraid of Mr. Yu-che’s existence.It was late afternoon and the sun was leaning towards the west. It would soon be nightfall, but what the Wux Clan Patriarch was waiting for had yet to cast a shadow.The night was getting darker and Patriarch Wux had yet to move from the balcony on the second-floor terrace of his small palace, as if he was waiting for someone.Patriarch Wux kept his eyes fixed anxiously on the sky. That’s when he noticed movement up there.Suddenly, a straight line of light app
Gaze of Envy.
"I-this...Is it really my name that was mentioned?" Guo Jiang suddenly panicked. He didn’t feel like he belonged to the Ice Island at all. But why was his name mentioned as one of the geniuses of the Ice Island?"Maybe it’s my poor hearing," he thought to himself. He then confirmed this truth to Uncle Huang Guowei, who was sitting in front of him.Jiayi himself had been standing on the stage all along; he had gathered together with the young geniuses of the thirteen sects mentioned earlier, seen talking to Zhao Hua and"Uncle Huang Guowei... is it true that my name was mentioned just now? You heard it, right?I-I can't believe that I’m on the list of geniuses representing the Ice Island?" asked Guo Jiang, looking nervous.Instead of answering the youngster’s question, Huang Guowei turned his head back, his narrowed eyes now studying the youngster. Guo Jiang instantly felt nervous, unable to decipher Uncle Huang Guowei’s gaze."Or... in your opinion, is this a mere coincidence? Could
New Master, New Path.
"Be diligent in your training, young man.In the future when we meet again, I don’t want to see you still in the realm of Earth like now.A young genius must practice diligently,and I hope that by the next meeting you’ve become a cultivator in the Atmosphere realm!" His voice was now getting fainter. That meant Huang Guowei’s ship was getting further away from Ice Island."Diligently train under Master Lin Haoyu. I am sure you will become a respected champion in the future."Uncle Huang Guowei was still whispering advice, though now the whispering voice was getting weaker.Guo Jiang didn’t want to leave the shore that day. He was immersed in a sense of nostalgia as he watched one after another the big ships leave Ice Island.The sun was getting higher as Guo Jiang was still lost in melancholy. Suddenly, a familiar voice spoke to his mind."Young man, are you done with that tearful farewell?You’d better hurry up and come to the north of the island; it borders the restricted area.You
Dance of the Orange Goddess.
The Ice Island Sect was originally a sect that concentrated on educating its disciples to become swordsmen. But then, for one reason or another, the sword sect changed its name to the Ice Island Sect when, a thousand years ago, all the sword masters from the Northern Hemisphere united and gathered on that Ice Island, forming a new alliance called the Ice Island Sect.Traditionally, the supreme sword art of the Ice Island was named the Orange Energy Sword Skill, which was said to have been created by the Sword King himself, the ruler of the continent a thousand years ago.The Sword King passed down the Sword Arts specifically for the Ice Island, ensuring that the Ice Island would always be at the forefront among the many new sects and cults that emerged in this part of the continent years later.This Orange Energy Sword Skill—unbeknownst to Guo Jiang—was actually the handiwork of the Gray Refiner, his own mentor who was known as the Sword King 1000 years ago.(Guo Jiang did not know th
Challenge to the Master.
So intense was the deadly aura emanating from the platinum-grade sword technique that it made the ice mist dissipate into nothingness.Guo Jiang finished the ninth move when the sky didn’t look bright anymore, but he knew it was night.“I will continue practicing the next moves tomorrow.The color of the sky on this Ice Island was very deceiving. Although the horizon looked quite bright, he knew that it was already night.“There are many mystical occurrences when night falls in this forbidden area. I don’t want to make Master anxious that I haven’t returned to the residence.”Indeed, Guo Jiang had been faintly hearing sounds similar to people singing. Not exactly singing, but chanting with rhythm—maybe the right word to call it—when he faintly heard the sound of music and people chanting, similar to the sound of a flute being blown.Although he was quite horrified at first to hear the strange noises, over time he felt normal.“There are many strange phenomena and things in the Fir For
A Prodigy’s Sword Dance.
When executing that Orange Energy Sword, Guo Jiang’s face turned serious.For him... to train and demonstrate the Orange Energy Sword was extremely easy in his view. All the cultivation bases of this technique looked familiar with the knowledge that the Gray Refiner had passed down.In his training in the harsh Northwest back then, he had been trained by his gray-robed Refiner mentor in a very complicated and grueling Diamond Ranking technique.“That’s the Nameless Sword Technique!”“One moment!”Speaking of the Nameless Sword Technique, Guo Jiang instantly remembered the Refiner’s message.“This level 2 Nameless Sword Technique can only be trained by a level 1 Earth practitioner.While level 3 Nameless Sword Techniques can be trained by a level 3 Earth rank motivated practitioner.”He secretly regretted his casualness. All this time he had broken through to the level 3 Earth realm but he had not even touched the copy given by the Refiner to learn level 2 and level 3 of the Nameless S
Hidden Depths of the Sword.
Guo Jiang was dumbfounded by his master's explanation. He did not expect at all that all those attacks after attacks of the Orange Energy Sword that he launched with ease were in fact the one thing that was difficult and considered complicated for cultivators on this Ice Island to learn.Guo Jiang did not realize that the creator of the eighteen signature sword attacks of the Ice Island Sect was the same person—his mentor, the Gray Robe Refiner.Because the Orange Energy Sword Technique (Platinum Grade) and Nameless Sword (Diamond Grade) came from a single source, where Guo Jiang received direct guidance from a piece of the Gray Robe Refiner's soul to practice Snow Lotus Cold Energy base cultivation, the foundation of all cold cultivation whose strength was slightly different from Ice Island's cold energy gathering cultivation.Plus the lessons on the more complicated Nameless Sword Moves his mentor practiced, and when he learned the copy of the platinum-grade Orange Energy Sword Skil
The Lonely Path of Cultivation.
With that ability, when we Moon Realm cultivators perform a series of level 1 to level 18 Orange Energy Sword techniques, most Moon Realm cultivators will split their souls into two. One remains in the physical body and the other forms its own figure, and it feels like there are two figures working together to form a sword formation!" concluded Lin Haoyu.Guo Jiang was instantly enlightened."I understand, master.""That means Guo Jiang can't maximize this Orange Energy Sword attack before reaching the Moon level?Or if you want to use the maximum ability of the sword technique, Guo Jiang should join forces with other cultivators to form a sword formation?" asked Guo Jiang, trying to reconfirm. He didn't seem to accept the fact that this sword technique would be of greater benefit if all attacks were launched in the form of a sword formation.His face seemed to change; he was a little disappointed."That's absolutely right," said Lin Haoyu, confirming again.The master saw the look of
The Forbidden Forest’s Secret.
"So what do you guys think Lin Hsin is like?" Guo Jiang asked Ning Hua and Chen Yang, the youngster and the worker disciple girl.After looking at each other and previously looking hesitant, Ning Hua spoke up."Lin Hsin is the best genius on this Ice Island with cultivation at Earth level 4.I heard that he has been trained with the Orange Energy Sword technique by his master who is also an Ice Island elder," Ning Hua explained, unable to hide the voice that contained veneration towards Lin Hsin.Chen Yang, the worker disciple, was not to be outdone in describing how genius Lin Hsin was."Even I heard that he has practiced and is able to perform sword moves up to level 5, that is the specially learned Orange Energy Sword Art."Chen Yang continued,"Lin Hsin even surpassed the senior disciples and elder candidates who were at the atmospheric level, who were also just able to set foot to learn the level 5 sword technique," Chen Yang added vehemently.Guo Jiang only smiled at the blatant
Wei Guizu.
Guo Jiang was shocked beyond belief. A fragile-looking old man spoke in a soft voice that sounded like a flute being blown."Lao ren (Old Master), who are you? How can you be in a place forbidden to everyone on this Ice Island? I have never heard of any elder on this island who is characterized like you," asked Guo Jiang respectfully.The man looked frail, yet his outfit seemed expensive and unique."Looks like it's custom-made," Guo Jiang thought, paying attention to the details of the outfit."Although he looks old and ancient, his movements are agile and light, similar to a deer.Wait a minute... Aren't his ears too pointy for a human?" Guo Jiang thought hard, trying to guess who the old man was.One thing Guo Jiang concluded: although he was old and a little strange, the man's overall appearance looked great. His voice and speech indicated that he was an educated person or perhaps from the nobility."Uhuk!" Guo Jiang came to his senses after the sound of the old man's deliberate c
