Battle Through the Heavens: Marry Cao Ying, Reward is Devouring Ancestral Symbol

Transforming the glacierBeside him, the four Dou Zongs of the Ice River Valley were also locked in place.

Bing Fu, Bing Yuan, Bing Hua, and Bing Xuan took all of this in.

Bing Xuan trembled all over like a sieve, his teeth chattering as he whispered in despair, ”Grand Elder... The Grand Elder... What kind of evil technique is this?!”

He wanted to look away, but found he could not even control his own eyelids.

He could only watch helplessly as the Grand Elder, whom they considered incredibly powerful, twisted feebly like a fish out of water.

Bing Yuan’s face was as pale as paper, cold sweat pouring down his forehead as his psychological defenses nearly collapsed. ”It’s over... we’re all finished... He’s not human at all! He’s a demon!”

He tried to curl his body, but was fixed in a ridiculous, rigid posture by Space Power.

Bing Hua looked as if her Soul had fled, her eyes hollow, as if the terror before her had drained her spirit; a single thought echoed repeatedly in her mind: ”I don’t want to become like that... I don’t want to...”

The weakest one, Bing Fu, had already wet his pants, and a pungent, foul smell began to spread.

Tears and snot flowed down his face as he opened his mouth silently, unable to even cry out; only endless fear flooded his consciousness.

Time seemed to stretch.

Every second was like a purgatory-like torment for Heavenly Frost Son, and for the four Dou Zongs beside him, it was a fear akin to being sliced piece by piece.

After about the time it takes to drink half a cup of tea.

The violent trembling of Heavenly Frost Son’s body gradually subsided.

The last trace of hostility and struggle in his eyes completely dissolved like ice and snow under the sun.

Replacing it was a complete and pure tranquility,

as well as a fanatical reverence from the depths of his Soul when he looked at Shen Wen.

Shen Wen withdrew the golden light at the right moment and felt the depletion of his Soul Power.

It was indeed significant, consuming nearly thirty percent of his Soul strength.

However, with the recovery speed of the Past Amitabha Sutra, it could be replenished after half a day of quiet cultivation.

Converting a Dou Zun was feasible, but it truly could not be used frequently as a regular method.

At this moment, although Heavenly Frost Son was still restrained by Space Power, his expression had completely changed.

He looked at Shen Wen with a gaze that was pious and fervent.

Shen Wen’s golden light continued toward the four Dou Zongs, and after a moment...

With a thought, he released the spatial imprisonment on the five of them.

Heavenly Frost Son was the first to roll up, but not to attack or flee;

instead, he knelt on both knees without hesitation, his forehead touching the deck, his voice full of power: ”Heavenly Frost Son greets the Venerable! Thank you for the grace of enlightenment, Venerable!”

Behind him, Bing Fu, Bing Yuan, Bing Hua, and Bing Xuan did exactly as Heavenly Frost Son had done, following suit by kowtowing repeatedly and shouting in unison:

”Greetings, Venerable!”

”We are willing to die for the Venerable!”

The five of them were incredibly respectful, appearing as completely different people compared to their terrified struggling just a moment ago.

Shen Wen nodded slightly, his gaze sweeping over his five newly Acquired ”servants,” finally landing on Heavenly Frost Son at the head, his tone flat but unquestionable:

”Let’s go.”

”Take us to see your Valley Master.”

The flying boat turned once more, but this time, five respectfully standing figures were added to the deck, speeding toward the Ice River Valley... Outside the Ice River Valley, the cold wind was biting.

Bing He stood with his hands behind his back on the glacier, his eyes fixed on the horizon.

Ever since Heavenly Frost Son began his mission, he had been coming here from time to time to keep watch.

When he saw that familiar Pill Tower flying boat returning, and Heavenly Frost Son and the others standing safely on the deck, a surge of wild joy first filled his heart!

It was a success!

Heavenly Frost Son had indeed lived up to his trust, capturing Shen Wen and that Innate Calamity Poison Body!

But in the next second, he frowned deeply, a sudden premonition of ill omen rising.

No!

Has Heavenly Frost Son become senile?

To be so sloppy in his work!

He actually brought back the Pill Tower’s signature flying boat exactly as it was?

Doesn’t this clearly tell everyone that this matter is related to the Ice River Valley?

However, when he focused his gaze on the situation on the deck, that sense of ill omen instantly turned into bone-chilling cold!

Shen Wen and Xiao Yi Xian were standing there perfectly fine, their clothes fluttering, their expressions calm, with no wounds or even a trace of disarray from a battle!

Instead, his relied-upon Grand Elder Heavenly Frost Son, along with Bing He and the other four Dou Zongs, stood beside Shen Wen like the most submissive servants, their postures... revealing a bizarre level of respect.

This was absolutely not how captured prisoners should look!

Bing He could Cultivate to the level of a Four-Star Dou Zun and hide the secret of his Acquired Calamity Poison Body for many years; his shrewdness and caution far exceeded ordinary people.

In a flash, he didn’t even think about why Heavenly Frost Son had betrayed him, nor did he need to question it; only one thought remained in his mind:

Escape! Escape immediately!

The opponent could silently deal with Heavenly Frost Son and make him look like this; their strength was definitely far beyond his estimates!

Staying meant certain death!

This person could not possibly be a Dou Zong; none of the people from the Hall of Souls he knew had such ability.

One must know that the Hall of Souls was already the existence most skilled in Soul matters.

The Space Power around him surged violently as he prepared to tear through space and flee.

At that very instant—

”Clang...”

A bell chime, sounding as if it came from the depths of the Soul or from ancient times, rang out in his Sea of Consciousness without warning!

Bing He was horrified to find that his thoughts, intentions, and even the Space Power he had half-activated were all in a state of near-stagnation at this moment!

It was as if time had been stolen for a moment, or as if his consciousness had been frozen in a block of eternal ice.

It was only a momentary stagnation.

But when his consciousness began to ”flow” again, everything before him had completely changed.

Shen Wen had, at some unknown point, silently stood before him, less than three feet away.

”We meet again, Ice Venerable!”

Bing He wanted to move, but found that the Space Power that originally belonged to him and obeyed his every command...

Had now turned into the sturdiest of shackles, imprisoning him from head to toe, layer upon layer, leaving him unable to move!

He even felt the vast Dou Zun Dou Qi within his body being suppressed by this terrifying Space Power like stagnant water, unable to be mobilized in the slightest!

Bing He’s pupils shrank to the size of pinpricks as boundless fear and disbelief overwhelmed him.

He wanted to open his mouth, to roar, to ask what kind of method this was, but found that even his Adam’s apple could not tremble in the slightest.

”You wanted to kill me and capture my wife. It seems only natural for me to take action against you.”

Shen Wen said with a smile.

In the next moment.

Shen Wen raised his finger, and a point of pure, warm golden light rapidly expanded in Bing He’s vision, eventually filling his entire world of consciousness... The golden light pervaded, swallowing him completely.

As time passed, the struggle in Bing He’s eyes began to vanish, and finally, he stood respectfully beside Shen Wen.

”Greetings, Venerable!”

Shen Wen nodded; as expected, he wasn’t disappointed. To have Dou Zun subordinates, he really had to come to the Ice River Valley.

”Let’s go in. Also, summon all the Disciples of your Ice River Valley here!”
