In no time.
Gu Chenfeng and the Ice Phoenix descended before the black-robed elder.
Gu Chenfeng glanced at the black-robed elder and smiled faintly, "The Secret Realm isnât under the Heaven-Burning Sectâs control, nor does it belong to the Heaven-Burning Sect. Anyone has the right to set foot here."
Gu Chenfengâs words were undeniably domineering.
The black-robed elder smiled calmly, "Young man, youâve misunderstood. Our Heaven-Burning Sect is not trying to occupy this place. Itâs just that the Abyss is extremely dangerous, not only possessing the Ancient Seal and confinements but also powerful Tier Nine Beasts. I donât wish for them to die in vain."
"Is that so?" Gu Chenfeng grinned.
Who would believe the elderâs nonsense?
With that said.
Gu Chenfeng continued to descend without paying any more attention to the black-robed elder.
The Ice Phoenix waved its hand, and the terrifying Ice Attribute instantly vanished.
With a wave of the hand, the Frozen Heaven and Earth appeared, and with another wave, it disappeared in a blink, as if it had never existed.
The Ice Phoenixâs control over the Ice Attribute could be said to be at will.
Gu Chenfeng and the Ice Phoenix swiftly descended, with no one from the Heaven-Burning Sect daring to block them.
Even the black-robed elder did not dare to obstruct; how could they have the courage?
The earlier action by the late-stage Crossing Tribulation expert was undoubtedly a march to death.
"Whoosh!"
A peak late-stage Crossing Tribulation expert flashed over.
Looking at the black-robed elder, he respectfully asked, "Great Elder, are we just letting them go like this? Isnât the Second Guardianâs death in vain?"
The black-robed elder frowned inwardly, "This personâs strength is not simple, and her control over the Ice Attribute is exceptionally perfect. Even if I go all out, I might not be able to defeat her."
It was precisely because the Ice Phoenix was so powerful that the black-robed elder backed down.
"What? The Great Elder is not her match?" The peak late-stage Crossing Tribulation expert was shocked.
The black-robed elder frowned again, "There arenât many powerful Ice Attribute wielders in the Cultivation Realm, and the strongest can only be the Ice and Snow Phoenix. Could she be the Ice and Snow Phoenix? It should be her."
Apart from the Ice Phoenix, the black-robed elder couldnât think of anyone else in the Cultivation Realm with such a terrifying Ice Attribute.
His gaze shifted to Gu Chenfeng, and the black-robed elder was puzzled, "As an elder, I canât discern that boyâs depth of cultivation. Being able to have a Half-Immortal Realm obey him, who exactly is he?"
The black-robed elder was also very curious about Gu Chenfengâs background.
Unfortunately, in the Secret Realm now, there was no way to trace Gu Chenfengâs origins.
A few minutes later.
Gu Chenfeng and the Ice Phoenix reached the bottom of the Abyss.
The experts of the Heaven-Burning Sect watched intently.
The bottom of the Abyss was dim, filled with a sinister atmosphere and a dreadful resentment.
At a glance, the ground was littered with bones.
A little further, deep pits and cracks could be seen.
After Gu Chenfeng landed, the summoning in his mind never ceased.
"Itâs in that direction." Gu Chenfeng looked towards the direction of the summoning and thought, "Such a familiar feeling, what could it be?"
The Ice Phoenix waved its hand, creating thousands of ice balls that flew in all directions, illuminating the dark Abyss like little moons.
Each of the thousands of ice balls contained extremely terrifying power.
The Heaven-Burning Sectâs Tribulation Stage and Divinity Transformation Stage experts all wore expressions of terror.
Under the white light, the bottom of the Abyss resembled the surface of the moon.
The Ice Phoenix expanded its Divine Sense and then frowned, "I canât sense any Magical Treasure aura, but the Heaven-Burning Sect did bring over a hundred experts. Beneath the nearby ground, there are several Tier Nine Demon Beasts."
Gu Chenfeng smiled faintly, "The Heaven-Burning Sect is occupying the Abyss, surely with the intent to find Ancient Immortal Artifacts."
The Ice Phoenix slightly furrowed Liu Mei, "Master came here once a hundred thousand years ago. Surely many experts entered the Secret Realm back then. The treasures left from ancient battles were likely snatched up a hundred thousand years ago. Even if there were any treasures, they wouldnât still be in such a place."
Gu Chenfeng shook his head slightly, "Perhaps they disappeared hundreds of thousands of years ago, but you never know. Obtaining an Ancient Immortal Artifact isnât that easy."
"Just like the Spirit Communication Jade, without the right connection, forcibly seizing it would only lead to death. Even at the Half-Immortal Realm, breaking a seal is no easy task. Even a wisp of Residual Soul from an ancient expert possesses terrifying power."
"Master is right," the Ice Phoenix nodded.
Gu Chenfeng smiled again, "Of course, the Ancient Immortal Artifact is secondary. My goal this time is to find my memories."
The Ice Phoenix asked, "Where do we look? Can the master sense it?"
"In that direction, letâs go." Gu Chenfeng pointed in a direction, and the two dashed off.
The Heaven-Burning Sectâs Great Elder flashed down, frowning, "They seem to be purposefully searching for something. This direction is..."
Over a dozen minutes later.
Gu Chenfeng and the Ice Phoenix slowly descended.
Gu Chenfeng looked toward a deep pit not far away, thinking, "Thatâs the Heaven-Slaying Soul-Sealing Array. The summoning feeling comes from that sealing array."
There, a several-zhang large sealing array could be seen.
However, six Tribulation Stage experts from the Heaven-Burning Sect were currently breaking the array.
"People from the Heaven-Burning Sect," the Ice Phoenix furrowed its brows, "Master, theyâre breaking the sealing array."
"They wonât succeed." Gu Chenfeng walked over step by step.
The moment Gu Chenfeng and the Ice Phoenix appeared, the six immediately sensed them.
"Who are you?" one of them frowned and asked. The six simultaneously activated their Spiritual Power, ready for battle.
At that moment.
The Ice Phoenix extended its jade hand, clenching its fist.
A terrifyingly powerful aura instantly suppressed the six Tribulation Stage experts on the ground, rendering them unable to move.
Before the Half-Immortal Realm, the six Tribulation Stage experts were no different from ants.
"Ice and Snow Phoenix, this seal was discovered by our Heaven-Burning Sect first. Isnât your action inappropriate?" The black-robed elderâs voice rang out as he flashed into appearance.
"Discovering it first doesnât make it yours," Gu Chenfeng smiled wide, his steps unabated.
"Such blatant robbery, yet you speak so righteously. Do you really think my Heaven-Burning Sect is easy to bully?" The black-robed elder spoke in a deep voice, his old face darkening.
The Gold Attribute Spiritual Power at the Half-Immortal Realm erupted, his whole body ignited with intense flames, and the black-robed elder snorted with anger, releasing an extremely terrifying aura, mercilessly pressuring Gu Chenfeng.
Though the black-robed elder feared the Ice Phoenix, it didnât mean he would let Gu Chenfeng trample all over him.
The Ice Phoenix stomped fiercely, unleashing a torrential surge of Ice Attribute, an even more terrifyingly overbearing momentum, forcibly dispersing the black-robed elderâs aura.
In the blink of an eye.
The deep pit earth stretching tens of thousands of meters around was covered by a several-meter thick layer of ice.
With a cold gaze directed at the black-robed elder, the Ice Phoenix said chillingly, "You seek death?"
The black-robed elder, unafraid, replied, "Ice and Snow Phoenix, just because I donât want to be enemies with you doesnât mean Iâm afraid of you. Iâm also at the Half-Immortal Realm. Even if your strength surpasses mine, it would still take time to kill me."
"But do you think that boy can withstand my Heaven-Burning Sectâs dozens of Tribulation Stage experts? Trying to rob our things, youâve picked the wrong people!"
