Soul Emperor Martial God

Chapter 2301: Chapter 2297: Not Necessarily, Depends on My Mood

”Ice Venerate Sacred Pattern Technique?” Lu Long, Xia Yifeng, Guardian Bing, and Guardian Nangong looked in horror at the four gleaming ice patterns in Xiao Yi’s hand.

”What an astonishing primordial power aura,” Guardian Nangong exclaimed.

”To be precise, it’s a rather complex space trajectory,” Xia Yifeng’s face was full of amazement.

Xiao Yi smiled lightly and slowly rolled down his sleeves, putting away the four ice patterns.

Xia Yifeng looked at Xiao Yi in surprise, ”Actually, many years ago, I speculated about the shortcomings of the Ice Venerate Technique and had a solution.”

”But I never figured it out.”

”Indeed, Ice Venerate Ancestor is unprecedentedly talented, and only he has the solution.”

Xiao Yi smiled.

The Ice Venerate Sacred Pattern Technique is fundamentally an upgraded cultivation technique of the Ice Venerate Technique, completely lacking the shortcomings of the Ice Venerate Technique.

The Ice Venerate Technique is indeed extremely strong.

But its seemingly dual cultivation effect in martial arts and body cultivation is not entirely true.

It appears to store massive primordial power in the flesh, providing great physical strength.

However, real body cultivation should imbue the body with power, not store power.

Simply put, the difference is, in body cultivation, the skin, bones, and meridians are exceptionally formidable, intrinsically filled with astonishing power.

Whereas the Ice Venerate Technique merely makes the body a ’reinforced’ container.

The disparity between the two is clear.

The Ice Venerate Sacred Pattern Technique, on the other hand, is frighteningly powerful. Long ago, Xiao Yi assessed that this technique is not inferior to the Asura Battle Body or Nine Yang Reincarnation Technique, those heaven-defying techniques.

Now, let this technique be returned to the Ice Emperor Palace.

Xia Yifeng perceived the martial arts glow in Xiao Yi’s hand, continually stunned, ”Such a complex space trajectory could never have been created by a martial artist at our level.”

”Ice Venerate Ancestor’s mastery over the Space Dao must have reached a heaven-defying level.”

”Goodness,” Guardian Bing exclaimed with delight, ”With this technique, future disciples acquiring the Ice Venerate Technique need no longer suffer physical harm and uncertain risks.”

”I thank the Palace Master on behalf of all the martial artists of the Ice Emperor Palace.” Guardian Bing bowed respectfully.

FWOOOSH...

The light in Xiao Yi’s hand suddenly dissipated, then reformed.

This time, the fingertip light remained bright, but the martial arts intent was entirely different.

”What is this?” The four sensed it and appeared confused.

”Soul Thought Technique,” Xiao Yi uttered three words.

”The strongest soul dao technique in the Ice Venerate Inheritance, also the most compatible with Ice Storm Devouring Soul technique.”

”The Ice Storm Devouring Soul soul skill has been placed within the Ice Palace Fourth Floor’s prohibition, so I won’t elaborate.”

”And this Soul Thought Technique is the best soul dao technique for unleashing the power of Ice Storm Devouring Soul.”

After speaking, the light at Xiao Yi’s fingertip dissipated again.

The next second, the light at his fingertip erupted again, a hundred times brighter than before.

”This... what astonishing martial arts intent,” Xia Yifeng exclaimed in astonishment.

”Is this the complete inheritance of Ice Venerate Ancestor?”

Xiao Yi nodded, ”Whether it’s the Ice Venerate Sacred Pattern Technique or Soul Thought Technique, or the complete inheritance, I’ll return them to your Ice Emperor Palace.”

”Of course, I’ll place them within the Ice Palace Fourth Floor as one of its prohibition opportunities.”

”In the future, whether the palace’s martial artists can obtain it will depend on their own abilities.”

”Naturally,” the four happily agreed, ”The inheritance and methods of Ice Venerate Ancestor should not be casually passed down. Gaining it without ability is useless and desecrates the inheritance.”

”Placing it within the Ice Palace Fourth Floor for deserving disciples to obtain through their abilities is the best choice.”

”We thank the Palace Master.”

Xiao Yi waved his hand.

These things all belong to Ice Venerate, returning them to the Ice Venerate Lineage is only appropriate.

This was his decision made long ago, resolving it before leaving the Ice Emperor Palace.

”I will leave Ice Venerate Ancestor’s inheritance within the Ice Palace Fourth Floor,” Xiao Yi stated.

”As for the completion of the Ice Venerate Technique, I suppose I don’t need to bother much about it.”

”You can correct the shortcomings of the various related cultivation techniques in the Ice Palace based on the complete Ice Venerate Sacred Pattern Technique.”

That’s a large undertaking, and Xiao Yi had no interest in doing such tedious work.

Correcting techniques like Ice Frost Chasing Sun Technique, Ice Storm Scripture, Ice Battle Technique does not equal the complete Ice Venerate Inheritance.

Returning the Ice Venerate Inheritance to the Ice Palace Fourth Floor is one matter.

Correcting those techniques derived from the Ice Venerate Technique is another.

Luckily, Xia Yifeng, known as the Hidden Master, pointed out that only correcting the Ice Venerate Technique is needed, saving Xiao Yi a lot of effort.

”Alright, the matter is settled.” Xiao Yi breathed a sigh of relief.

But the Four Great Guardians simultaneously furrowed their brows, looking at Xiao Yi with solemn expressions.

”What’s the matter?” Xiao Yi asked calmly, looking at their expressions.

The four remained silent for a while.

After some time, Lu Long broke the silence first, ”Palace Master, are you blaming me for my previous offense?”

”I ask the Palace Master to punish me according to the palace rules.”

After speaking, Lu Long knelt on one knee.

”I ask the Palace Master to punish us,” Guardian Bing and Guardian Nangong followed suit and knelt.

In the four’s view, Xiao Yi’s return of the Ice Venerate Inheritance was very clear.

The inheritance has been returned, which means no longer wishing to involve himself in any Ice Emperor Palace affairs, equal to severing ties.

To them, the Ice Venerate Inheritance is naturally the most critical.

However, leaving the Ice Venerate Inheritance and the sole martial artist in countless years who obtained and mastered the Ice Venerate Inheritance are two different matters.

The latter is evidently more important.

The difference between leaving an inheritance and having someone who has obtained and mastered it is self-evident.

”Palace Master, is it that you no longer wish to stay at the Ice Emperor Palace?” Xia Yifeng asked solemnly.

Xiao Yi nodded, ”I have other matters to attend to, so I won’t remain.”

Xia Yifeng furrowed his brows, ”Then will the Palace Master no longer acknowledge the identity of Palace Master of Ice Emperor Palace?”

Xiao Yi smiled, ”That’s not certain, it depends on my mood.”

”Depends on your mood?” Xia Yifeng appeared puzzled.

The three kneeling people quickly lifted their heads to look at Xiao Yi.

Xiao Yi smiled, ”For example, Lu Long slicing me with a sword and severely injuring me deeply upset my mood.”

”And then the assassination attempt by Supreme Tower extremely displeased me.”

Lu Long cupped his hands, ”I was ignorant and offended the Palace Master, I ask the Palace Master to punish me as he sees fit.”

”As for the Supreme Tower’s assassination attempt...”

”Is there even a need to say more?” Guardian Bing snorted coldly, ”To dare affront the Palace Master is to become an enemy of the Ice Venerate Lineage; from now on, we will fight until the end.”

Xiao Yi shook his head, ”I don’t want to hear any of this.”

”One thing, starting today, I want the Supreme Tower, which has caused turmoil in the Central Region, to never progress again.”

”I need an explanation for today’s assassination attempt.”

”Do I need to teach you how to handle it?”

”No need,” Guardian Bing and Guardian Nangong shook their heads.

Lu Long’s eyes grew cold, ”I understand the Palace Master’s meaning.”

Xiao Yi smiled, ”The sword strike from you, Lu Long, I can’t defeat you anyway, nor would I expect you to return it.”

”So let’s exchange it for the lives of the Supreme Tower’s assassins.”

”Yes,” Lu Long nodded.

Xiao Yi smiled contentedly, ”From today onward, I don’t want to see a single assassin from Supreme Tower fluttering about in the Central Region.”

”The four of you old fellows can manage that, right?”

”Rest assured, Palace Master,” Lu Long nodded.
