Simplification System: From Perfect Arrow Skill to Immortal

Otherwise, the only option is a desperate fight to the death.

Lin Chang’sheng planned to trap the Frost Demon Emperor within the Soul Banner’s array, then take her straight into another forbidden area—maybe that way, he could keep the Frost Demon Emperor locked down.

”What’s the nearest forbidden area to Extreme Cold Celestial Mountain?”

Han Tian thought for a bit, then something seemed to occur to him. ”Actually, there is a forbidden area not far from here. It’s one of the three most ferocious forbidden zones in the Immortal Realm, called the Mist Forbidden Area. Even Immortals who enter rarely make it out alive—so no one ever goes near it!”

”Which direction is it? How far?”

When Lin Chang’sheng heard this, hope lit up in his eyes.

Forbidden areas are hard to break through, surely reinforced with powerful arrays.

Lin Chang’sheng was well-versed in arrays. As long as he spent some time studying them, he was sure he could find the flaw in any grand array and get out.

But the Frost Demon Emperor might not be so lucky.

”Three thousand li east of Extreme Cold Celestial Mountain! The area is shrouded in icy mist. Get within a hundred meters and you’ll be sucked straight into the forbidden ground by some mysterious force!”

Han Tian explained.

”Three thousand li to the east!”

Lin Chang’sheng repeated silently, then, without hesitation, tore through the air as he left.

Luna instantly transformed into the Frost Profound Bird and followed close behind.

”You didn’t even let me on!”

Gu Shan shouted—seemed like Lin Chang’sheng wasn’t planning to bring him this time.

But had Lin Chang’sheng forgotten? Guo Yunchu was still in his storage ring!

Guo Yunchu probably had no idea what was happening outside right now.

”You stay here!”

Lin Chang’sheng’s voice came drifting from the sky, and then his figure vanished without a trace.

Gu Shan was about to say that Guo Yunchu was still in his storage ring, but thought better of it.

Maybe they’re better off together anyway.

After leaving, Lin Chang’sheng didn’t hurry to Extreme Cold Celestial Mountain, but went instead toward the forbidden area, three thousand li to the east.

”Could this be...?”

Half an hour later, Lin Chang’sheng had crossed five thousand li and arrived at a land covered in icy fog.

This must be the forbidden area Han Tian spoke of.

After memorizing the location, Lin Chang’sheng quickly left, heading straight for Extreme Cold Celestial Mountain.

He had to ensure that, once the Frost Demon Emperor was confined in the array, he would be able to bring her swiftly to the forbidden ground—otherwise, she’d have time to break free.

Extreme Cold Celestial Mountain.

The Frost Race had been waiting here for Lin Chang’sheng for quite some time.

They’d assumed Lin Chang’sheng would come with a host of powerful allies.

But to their surprise, Lin Chang’sheng showed up alone.

This even made the Frost Demon Emperor admire Lin Chang’sheng’s nerve.

”Kid, you’ve got some guts! Daring to come here alone!”

The Frost Demon Emperor said coldly. Since he was alone, it seemed he really intended to hand over the Frost Staff.

”You think I’m like you, needing a bunch of people to protect me?”

Lin Chang’sheng scoffed, then with a wave of his hand summoned the Frost Staff. The air around them immediately grew colder, the temperature plummeting.

The Frost Demon Emperor, upon seeing the staff, couldn’t hide the excitement in her eyes.

”It’s truly the Frost Staff!”

Her face lit up with delight.

If she could seize this artifact, her power would soar. Then, who in the Immortal Realm could possibly stop her?

The Frost Demon Emperor waved a hand, and Yan Zhen was brought out.

At that moment, Yan Zhen was gravely wounded and unconscious.

Clearly, before Lin Chang’sheng arrived, the Frost Race had been forcing her for information.

”If anything happens to her, don’t even dream of getting this Frost Staff!”

Lin Chang’sheng said angrily.

”Relax. She won’t die!”

The Frost Demon Emperor breathed out a gust of Cold Ice Qi over Yan Zhen’s face, and, moments later, Yan Zhen slowly regained consciousness.

As soon as Yan Zhen saw Lin Chang’sheng, desperation flashed in her eyes.

”Chang’sheng, you can’t defeat her. Leave now! You absolutely can’t let the Frost Staff fall into her hands or the Immortal Realm will be plunged into chaos!”

Yan Zhen shouted—she had guarded Ice and Snow City for years; she knew well how powerful the Frost Staff was.

”Sister Zhen, your life is worth far more than this Frost Staff!”

Lin Chang’sheng replied, then turned his gaze on the Frost Demon Emperor. ”The staff’s in my hand. Come take it if you want it. But let her go!”

”What a joke! If I let her go, you’ll grab her and run at once! When I have the Frost Staff, I’ll release her!”

The Frost Demon Emperor eyed Lin Chang’sheng warily—not because of his strength, but because he possessed a great array that could trap her, even if only briefly.

This array could hold her for a short time.

”Then forget about this thing! Today might be your last chance to ever see it!”

Lin Chang’sheng was utterly fearless.

The Frost Staff was her greatest desire, something she wouldn’t let go so easily.

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Chang’sheng began drawing the Teleportation Array. ”By the time I finish this array, it’ll be too late for you to change your mind!”

”You—”

The Frost Demon Emperor was infuriated by Lin Chang’sheng’s actions.

She could only seize Yan Zhen with one hand and step by step approach Lin Chang’sheng.

If Lin Chang’sheng tried anything, Yan Zhen would be the first to die.

Seeing how on guard she was, Lin Chang’sheng found it hard not to laugh.

Clearly, she’d suffered in his array before—no wonder she was so cautious.

Once the Frost Demon Emperor was close enough, Lin Chang’sheng threw the Frost Staff into the air.

The Frost Demon Emperor saw the staff flying, immediately flung aside Yan Zhen, and lunged for it.

Lin Chang’sheng seized the moment and whisked Yan Zhen into his storage ring.

Now Yan Zhen was safe.

”Xiaobai!”

Lin Chang’sheng called out to Xiaobai.

With a wave, Xiaobai summoned the Frost Staff back again.

Xiaobai had already refined one layer of the staff’s restriction—so now, it was his.

That let him recall it effortlessly.

The Frost Demon Emperor was just about to get the staff, only to see it vanish in midair—she was livid.

”You dare play me for a fool?”

The Frost Demon Emperor was furious, but Lin Chang’sheng didn’t give her a chance to react—he pulled out the Holy Soul Banner with a swipe.

The instant she saw the Holy Soul Banner, the Frost Demon Emperor’s heart was gripped by terror.

She tried to run, but was simply too slow—Lin Chang’sheng instantly sucked her into the Soul Banner.

”You’ve got a death wish!”

The White-clothed Demon King saw Lin Chang’sheng’s treachery—he’d deprived the Demon Emperor of not only the Frost Staff, but also imprisoned her within an array. The Demon King exploded with rage.

As soon as he spoke, he charged Lin Chang’sheng.

But Lin Chang’sheng didn’t want to waste time fighting them.

He darted into the Teleportation Array he had just finished drawing.

In the next instant, Lin Chang’sheng was transmitted back to Ice and Snow City.

He settled Yan Zhen within the city and left her under the care of reliable warriors.

”The Empress is back?”

Seeing Lin Chang’sheng return with the Empress, Han Tian was stunned.

He hadn’t expected Lin Chang’sheng to come back so soon with the Empress in tow.

”You all go now. The Frost Race will definitely come after us with vengeance!”

Lin Chang’sheng ordered.

”Understood!”

Han Tian knew there was no way they could take on the Frost Demon Race right now—the wisest move was to get away.

Later, when it was time to suppress the Frost Demon Race, the entire Immortal Realm’s strongest could be called on.

”What about me?”

Gu Shan chimed in.

”You leave with them. I have other things to do!”

Lin Chang’sheng said, then began drawing another Teleportation Array—this time, his destination was the Mist Illusion Realm, one of the three great forbidden grounds.

He planned to seal the Frost Empress within it.

Gu Shan realized he couldn’t be of help now, so he didn’t argue further.

Too late—

In the next instant, amidst a spark of fire, the array was complete. Lin Chang’sheng stepped in and disappeared at once.

When Lin Chang’sheng appeared again, he’d arrived at the entrance to the forbidden area.

Rumble—

He could feel the Holy Soul Banner trembling violently.

The Frost Demon Emperor was probably raging inside, desperately trying to break out.

”Guess I’ll just leave it to fate!”

Lin Chang’sheng muttered and plunged into the mist.

He traveled a hundred meters or so, when a powerful force pulled him in, sucking him straight into the forbidden ground.

Everything went black as Lin Chang’sheng felt himself plummeting down.

A crushing sense of weightlessness lasted for about ten heartbeats before he finally hit solid ground.

When he opened his eyes again, he found himself deep in a dense forest, with mist swirling all around—impossible to tell which way was which.
