"System."
Lin Fei accessed the system panel to review the progress of his Divine Abilities.
Host: Lin Fei
Martial Realm: Mid-stage Martial Sovereign
Great Divine Ability: Black Wind Prison: Perfect
Great Divine Ability: Gravity Domain: Perfect
Great Divine Ability: Dual-World Saber: Perfect
Great Divine Ability: Annihilation: Perfect
Great Divine Ability: Undying Seal: Perfect
Great Divine Ability: Pierce: Mastery (Progress 8%)
Saber Domain: Transcendence (Progress 10%)
Upon seeing the Saber Domain, Lin Fei was astonished to find it had advanced again, having reached a cultivation progress of 10%. The Great Divine Ability: Pierce had also evolved from its beginner stage to mastery. This breakthrough was due to it pierced the Heavenly River Orb. Thus, his skills had ascended to mastery.
Lin Fei had been overseeing the Nine Profound Sect for several days. During this time, he stayed within the sect, observing. He was curious to see if any Martial Sovereigns or Golden Core True Persons would defy his "decree". If they did, he was ready to act.
However, the days passed uneventfully. Everywhere remained calm, with no Martial Sovereign or Golden Core True Person daring to breach Lin Fei's mandate. All were impeccably compliant.
Perhaps Lin Fei's execution of True Person Youming and the other seven Golden Core True Persons had sent a clear message. Or it could be the result of slaying Yuan Dragon True Person and his cohort of Golden Core True Persons.
"Since all is calm, it's time for me to venture to the Northern Territories," mused Lin Fei.
His heart was also set on seeking treasures. As there were no pressing matters in other areas, Lin Fei prepared to depart.
With a swoosh, he transformed into a beam of light, instantaneously exiting his cave residence and vanishing into the horizon. Shortly after, he arrived in the Northern Territories, flying ceaselessly towards the far North.
The land here was perennially frigid, with snowflakes settling to form a thick carpet of snow. Before him stretched an endless glacier, seemingly boundless. Yet, Lin Fei knew better. It might appear to be a grand illusion, with the glacier not as vast as it seemed, but imbued with a peculiar power that could lead one in endless circles atop it.
In the past, when Lin Fei was merely a Martial Saint, he couldn't detect any flaws or traces of a magical formation on the glacier. Now, as a Martial Sovereign, he was vastly more powerful than a Martial Saint. Yet, as far as his eyes could see, all he witnessed was still the vast expanse of the white glacier. Even as a Martial Sovereign, he discerned no anomalies.
Thus, Lin Fei, just as before, took a step, entering the heart of the glacier.
As Lin Fei took his steps into the glacier, an immediate surge of piercing cold engulfed him.
"Crack, Crack."
His body quickly started forming layers of ice crystals, seemingly trying to encase him entirely. However, Lin Fei didn't even need to activate his Saber Domain. His flesh had gone through numerous transformations over time.
"Bang."
With a slight vibration of his body, the icy layers on him shattered instantly. The ice crystals covering him broke and crumbled, revealing a scorching aura emanating from his very being.
This was the pure power of Lin Fei's flesh. He hadn't frequently utilized the power of his physical body, but that didn't mean it wasn't formidable. Before achieving the status of Martial Sovereign, he had condensed the Energy Flower, and his body had undergone subsequent transformations. Even by merely relying on his flesh's power, Lin Fei could easily overpower numerous martial saints.
Thus, these mere ice crystals and biting cold were of no match to Lin Fei's robust physique. He proceeded forward, leaving footprints with each step.
After what felt like an eternity, Lin Fei felt a sense of déjà vu. Just like before, he felt like he was continuously moving in circles within the glacier.
"There's no trace of any formation... There isn't any obvious seal either. Even a Martial Sovereign or a Golden Core True Person can't detect any flaws..."
Lin Fei contemplated in silence. There was undoubtedly something off about this glacier. But with just his eyes, he couldn't discern the anomaly. However, his expertise in formations wasn't his strong suit, and he had no intention of searching for any formation flaws.
"Boom!"
The next moment, his Saber Domain descended. It expanded mightily in every direction, stretching far and wide. Sometimes, the eyes can deceive, the body can lie, and even sensations can be misleading. But the Saber Domain? It never lied. As it kept expanding, Lin Fei felt resistance.
"Hmm?"
As his Saber Domain faced this obstruction, Lin Fei opened his eyes. It seemed something, some force was preventing the spread of his Saber Domain.
"So, there is resistance after all," he murmured. But when he tried to walk on his own, he never felt this impediment. Yet, his Saber Domain didn't lie. This glacier wasn't as vast as it appeared to his eyes. It might even have a limited range.
Lin Fei decided to shut his eyes and allow his Saber Domain to guide him. Within its bounds, he was the omnipotent ruler.
"Shoo."
In an instant, Lin Fei teleported towards the area where his Saber Domain sensed the obstruction.
"Swohh."
Upon opening his eyes, all he could see was the vast expanse of white ice. Turning around, he realized he had only moved less than a hundred meters. Nothing seemed unusual here. He could still progress further. However, it was here that his Saber Domain sensed an obstruction as if an invisible wall blocked its spread.
Lin Fei reached out his hand. He stretched it forward. Yet, everything felt normal. His hand didn't touch anything unusual. Lin Fei then took another step, continuing to walk ahead.
"Hmm?"
With each step he took, in the perception of his Saber Domain, it felt as if he was walking backward, moving further away from where the Saber Domain was obstructed.
"No, something is definitely wrong there," Lin Fei thought. He returned to the spot where his Saber Domain was hindered. He was now certain that there was an issue.
"No matter what this place is, be it a formation or a seal," Lin Fei murmured, "If the power is strong enough, it can break all barriers!"
Determination shone in Lin Fei's eyes. The next moment, the Life Wheel appeared behind him. The Life Wheel was enormous, with its six layers of light shining brilliantly, making it appear sacred, mysterious, and powerful. It radiated a terrifying pressure.
"Divine Ability, Gravity Domain!"
The second layer of light shone brighter. At the same time, the Gravity Domain descended. A terrifying gravitational force instantly covered the entire glacier.
Loud rumbling sounds resonated as the glacier shattered. While this glacier might pose a threat to martial saints, under Lin Fei's Gravity Domain, it was nothing. Under Lin Fei's overwhelming force, the glacier was reduced to cold water in an instant. The glacier was gone, replaced by endless water.
Yet, despite the transformation of the glacier to water, Lin Fei still stood in the same place, without noticing any anomalies. In the perception of his Saber Domain, there was still an invisible barrier.
"Divine Ability, Annihilation! Divine Ability, Dual-World Saber!"
After Lin Fei executed both the Annihilation Divine Ability and Dual-World Saber, it seemed like he was striking at empty air. It had no effect. If not for the perception of Lin Fei's Saber Domain sensing the invisible barrier, he might not have noticed any anomalies.
"Divine Ability, Pierce!"
Lin Fei had one more Divine Ability that could penetrate everything! A massive beam of light shot out, heading straight into the void. There was a slight distortion in the void, and the beam of light disappeared. However, a small, pitch-black hole was left in its place.
"Is this..." Lin Fei was taken aback. It seemed that he had truly discovered something!
"System."
