Under such circumstances, there would be certainly dead end inside!
Even a lot of channels arrived till the last, but all could be the dead end.
Now that their Soul Search Technique was totally unusable, so they were simply unable to explore ahead. In case they swam in the water to find the path, would certainly need Soul Search then.
In this ice-cold seawater, even Ye Feng and Long Wan’er couldn’t last long, a thin layer of frost had already appeared on their eyebrows. Under such circumstances, the two could only rely on their Zhenqi to flow within their bodies and keep them warm.
But in addition, there was a place which actually surprised Ye Feng a bit, and that was, after entering the ice channel, the surrounding spiritual energy all of a sudden started getting stronger several times.
If the meridians were spacious enough, then could promote their Cultivation at least for several years by absorbing this spiritual energy.
Obviously, the spiritual energy, as well as a thousand years of mysterious ice, stemmed from a common source. So if at present they absorb the spiritual energy of the ice city, then, later on, couldn’t absorb the spiritual energy of the thousand years thick ice, which could enhance their Cultivation by at least 10 years.
What should be done now?
“Walk, look around.”
Ye Feng intensely looked at the central part of the ice city where the shadow of a beautiful figure was.
At this time Su Feiying seemed to be frozen in the centre, completely motionless. Although her figure was faintly visible but still looked quite elegant and beautiful, just like a frozen snow lotus, noble and glamorous.
Soon, they started walking along the ice channel, trying to find the route leading to the ice city centre ………………
Volume 3
Chapter 207
Outside the ice city, on the sea surface.
“So it has been really broken.”
Thunder was now determined, the entire iceberg island was at a place which was more than 50 meters deep from the sea surface. So even if someone exploded open an ice wall channel, but now it didn’t have the automatic cicatrization ability!
In other words, finally a channel had appeared in front of them, so now they could easily enter the iceberg island.
But the point was, what was inside the iceberg?
Thunder although didn’t know about it, but his curiosity was already soaring in the sky. In such environment, they had to do an ample preparation beforehand to carry out their operation.
Was it Ye Feng?
He secretly guessed, but still somewhat didn’t dare to believe his own conjecture.
At this moment, all the people of Thunder’s squad had an expression of astonishment on their faces. When even the cruise missile failed to break open the ice wall, it was actually inexplicably blasted by someone else to the extent that a channel also appeared before them?
The morning sun had already plodded along towards the east, under the warmth of which the entire surface of the East China Sea seemed to be very serene. However, the remaining place where iceberg island was, the heart-chilling cold air was constantly passing through it.
The entire eastern coast had long been blocked by the NSA and the military joint local police to ensure that civilians couldn’t discover this side’s strange appearance.
But then suddenly, from the seacoast direction, another two speedboats quickly approached the location where Thunder along with his squad was.
They were similarly the members of the NSA.
“Niu Meng, why did you show up here?”
Thunder raised his head to catch sight of a familiar figure on the speedboat, then slightly wrinkled his eyebrows.
“Haha, because I have received the order of Captain Li Feng, to come over here and carry out the mission!”
A butcher’s voice suddenly burst out!
Thunder’s team member simultaneously looked ahead and saw two speedboats in the open, along with fully armed another squad, led by a man wearing an electronic eye, who looked similarly as ferocious as a butcher.
That was Niu Meng!
Niu Meng’s stature was fairly tall and sturdy, while his facial features were really ferocious. It was said that once while carrying out his mission, his bright appearance scared a dog to death, henceforth his reputation in the NSA had become a big quake.
On one side of his face, there was a knife-cut scar, but he didn’t remove the stitches deliberately, which made his appearance look quite hideous and fearsome; while on another side of his face, there was an electronic eye embedded in his eye socket to substitute his eyeball.
Because of this, when he was compared with other NSA member, he turned out to have more astonishing kind of advantage over others – his electronic eye, which just like a radar could strafe in all directions, besides was also extremely sensitive to anything fell in its periphery!
When he was a kid, his biological father was killed by the people of the martial arts world, this was the reason why he turned so hostile to the martial artists and consequently became the top ranking official under Li Feng.
“I am sorry but I am solely responsible for the task here and have full authority to handle it.”
Thunder was certainly not affable. When he noticed that Niu Meng wanted to come and butt in horizontally, he didn’t take pleasure in that.
“Hmm, the appointment letter will soon arrive here. Captain Feng had already applied for this above because of your unfavourable work. Besides you also wasted a cruise missile, still didn’t make any progress, therefore now I have been made completely responsible for the task here.”
A trace of fierceness flashed in his eyes as he said, then again continued while being complacent: “Captain Thunder, sorry but this time your squad must coordinate with us. Come on, complete your all preparation to go into the water!
He directly issued an order and the NSA members on the speedboats immediately started getting ready.
Diving suits, precision firearms, detection equipment, thermal equipment ……
A series of precise and sophisticated equipment were all hung on their bodies and in an instant, they turned into the fully armed soldiers!
Regarding the Iceberg island, channel and fortress, apparently, Niu Meng already knew about this. A cold look hidden within his ferocious eyes was also depicting everything. While his precise electronic eye was reflecting the light of the sun, making people look at it and tremble with fear.
Presumably, after cutting off Captain Li’s arm, that kid had already entered ………
But what was his purpose ………..
Synthesising various aspects and news, he could almost determine that the person who broke the ice wall was doubtlessly Ye Feng. Although this was very shocking, but still he didn’t care about it.
He licked his lips, simultaneously made the people anticipate that Captain Li’s plan was really too wonderful!
Mere the thought of Li Feng with his detailed description of the plan made his heart bounce with extreme excitement. This time, he must carefully look at that rampant and despotic martial arts kid’s death shape and would take a picture of him to keep as a souvenir!
It must be said Niu Meng’s both physical and psychological qualities were top-notch, except for his extreme hatred against the martial arts world. In short, he was simply a perfect special soldier who couldn’t pick up a problem, while his commanding ability was also pretty commendable.
But just because he wasn’t a regular military academy graduate, therefore he could never get the chance to be at the same level as Li Feng and would only stay placed under Li Feng as his subordinate. Of course, Li Feng didn’t let him suffer from injustice ever.
Relying on the power and weapons in hands, to make a martial artist obediently surrender, this was the thing he enjoyed a lot!
As for the power, he didn’t crave for that.
Almost at the same time when he finished saying, Thunder finally received an appointm
ent letter from above: Because of Li Feng’s poor physical condition, Niu Meng would temporarily hold the post of Captain and with full authority, would take over the East China Sea’s affairs, while Thunder would assist him from the sideline. Besides, he must investigate the secret of the iceberg island, simultaneously must guard against the secret movement that the U.S. might carry on any moment.
It really came!
Thunder’s facial expression suddenly changed, he looked at Niu Meng but didn’t say anything.
Talking about the status in the NSA, both Li Feng and Thunder were similarly the Captain but were not at the topmost layer. Li Feng was under the high-level officials of the NSA while Thunder was directly under the jurisdiction of Lin Detian.
While confronting this sort of important matter like the iceberg island, even Lin Detian couldn’t guarantee Thunder to have full authority and responsibility.
Objectively speaking, Niu Meng with Li Feng’s squad had always operated well and recorded success every time, which had always been much better than Thunder. Of course, how the success of Li Feng’s squad was recorded, everyone knew about it, but regardless of the result, what mattered was how it had been achieved. For them, as long as could deterrent to the martial artists, then the approach of Li Feng’s squad was considered as correct.
As for the death of plenty of innocent martial artists, what relationship he had with him?
Puff! Puff!
Niu Meng personally led ten members and after getting fully armed, along with other members, also jumped into the sea from the speedboat. Afterwards, they quickly advanced towards the ice wall channel almost fifty meters deep from the sea surface.
……………
While at this time, on the other side, Ye Feng and Long Wan’er were constantly shuttling to and from within the ice fortress.
The ice wall channel was just like a honeycomb, densely packed and extended in all directions. The two people walked along a road and soon found that this was a strip dead-end. Since it was completely frozen ahead, so walking ahead was not possible.
“It’s not good like this.”
Ye Feng said as he gazed at the thick wall of ice, simultaneously his eyebrows gradually turned into a huge frown.
In this half an hour of the time period, these two people were still stuck in the outermost layer of the channel. While taking a broad view, Su Feiying’s gorgeous figure was still there in the centre of the ice city but was still separated by seven or eight layers of the ice wall.
If this continued, perhaps they would end up wasting several days and nights, but still, couldn’t find a single way to reach the central part of it!
But now Ye Feng didn’t have too much time to waste.
Moreover, he also believed that after checking the outer layer of the ice wall channel, the NSA would certainly send people inside. And of course, the opposite party would be having several people, so finding the way would be certainly much easier for them. In case they found the path, then naturally, they wouldn’t share anything with Ye Feng.
If Ye Feng let the NSA reach the central part of the ice city, then highly likely they would carry away frozen Su Feiying’s body, while Ye Feng would end up regretting!
“There is another way.”
Ye Feng said as he leant a bit and stared at the captivating but hazy figure of Su Feiying.
So now his plan was if he absorbed the spiritual energy present in the ice city, this would promote his Cultivation to 15 years. Then only he could be able to coordinate with Long Wan’er, and then together they could condense Star Arrow again, to break open another ice wall channel.
Their merged effort and exquisite coordination could make the ice wall channel get a bit closer to Su Feiying.
However, presently Ye Feng’s meridian could only hold up to 13 years of Cultivation. So in case he tried to forcibly absorb the spiritual energy, then most likely his meridians would burst and he would die right away!
Still, did he want to gamble?
Volume 3
Chapter 208
Ye Feng pondered for a moment, he truly didn’t want to let Su Feiying get discovered by the NSA people first, so ultimately decided to go ahead regardless of anything.
Without Su Feiying, the present he didn’t exist. If only he could save her, even though by taking the risk that his meridians might burst during the process, still he wouldn’t hesitate a bit!
Now he had also refused to take so many things into account.
Furthermore, he didn’t even notify Long Wan’er about his plan and simply, a bit selfishly started operating Star Tomb Tactics. In no time, his Dantian began to enliven, followed by a wisp of spiritual energy which started getting absorbed into his body from the surrounding!
As for Long Wan’er, the moment she saw him, a puzzled expression simultaneously crawled across her face, but still she stayed by his side.
Obviously, she knew what he was doing currently, but the story didn’t end here, she also knew that a huge risk was involved in this thing. However, she still didn’t stop him as already knew that even if she tried stopping him, it would be of no use.
The place his master, Su Feiying had engraved in his heart, didn’t that affirm that no one could replace it?
This point suddenly emerged in her heart which drew her completely into it, but soon she shook her head and logically thought that if she were at his place, then she would definitely have also the same kind of feeling for this master …………
A faint trace of spiritual energy was making its way through Ye Feng’s body directly into his Dantian, then after passing through his Core Dan, it immediately transformed into Zhenqi and bit by bit started enhancing his Cultivation.
12 years 6 months ……
13 years ……
13 years 6 months ……
Puff.
However, at this instant, the meridians around his Dantian suddenly failed to withstand it and began to burst one after another, making his heart sink, such quickly his meridians failed to withstand it?
No, not good, he had to reach at least fifteen years!
Till then, he must stick to it!
He clenched his teeth while his eyes were completely stuck on the beautiful figure of his master in his front. Ever since his birth, he never had any moment in his life where he had shown such a firm conviction!
Now it could be felt that Su Feiying was not in a favourable situation because any moment, she might fall into the hands of the NSA, then only the God would know what might happen …….
Puff. Puff.
When he forcibly absorbed the spiritual energy and jolted his Cultivation to reach 14 years, at that time the meridians of his whole body became unable to withstand anymore and started bursting successively!
Fresh blood also flowed out from his mouth.
Long Wan’er saw that and anxiously looked at him, but other than facing this kind of situation, she didn’t have any other way. If possible, she would rather try this dangerous thing, but regrettably, Ye Feng wouldn’t allow her to do so.
A dozen of his meridians had already burst by now, but anyway, the injury was not that big, so he could still insist on.
14 years 6 months!
Just a bit more!
He ground his teeth and immediately made his Dantian begin to revolve faster. Immediately a burst of cold spiritual energy rushed all the way into his body from the surrounding!
Now that he had absorbed this spiritual energy, therefore at the time when he would obtain a thousand years thick ice, then he couldn’t rely on it to enhance his Cultivation by ten years.
In the case of other people, they would never think of throwing a watermelon to pick up the sesame seeds. However Ye Feng did so because for him, indeed Cultivation was very important, but there were more important things in the world which were much more precious than few years of Cultivation.
And that was his close relatives!
For him, he had accompanied Su Feiying since his childhood, so
she was just like his family member or it could be said she was like his elder sister who led him to grow up like this!
So at all cost, he couldn’t let her be injured, not even the slightest bit.
Not only Su Feiying, even other people like Long Wan’er and Su Menghan were also the same for him. At present, he was desperately fighting to enhance his Cultivation, however, his ultimate goal was different from others who used to harbour dreams like to dominate the whole world, enjoy the power and so on.
His goal was simple.
As long as being strong enough to protect the people around, that was enough …………
His consciousness started getting more and more blurred, but he still had clenched his teeth to carry on the process uninterrupted. As the spiritual energy flooded into his body again, his body’s meridians finally completely failed to hold anymore and they immediately collapsed!
But right at this instant, the Ancient Dragon Sword Ring he had in his hand, suddenly emitted a faint trace of the mysterious air current, which from his hand directly entered his body and along with his meridians, it rushed throughout his body.
The meridians he had ruptured just now, this faint trace of mysterious airflow abruptly suppressed them.
15 years of Cultivation!
Ye Feng woke up wide open with a flash of understanding, while his pair of eyes also brightened up, so ultimately he accomplished his goal!
Just that scene simply jolted his heart out, but fortunately, there was the existence of Ancient Dragon Sword Ring. This mysterious Ring not only saved his life again but also helped him achieve 15 years of Cultivation at one fell swoop!
Seeing Ye Feng setting out all safe and sound, Long Wan’er’s tight and restless heart finally calmed down. Immediately her footsteps moved and she swam over to promptly throw herself into his arms.
“Hereafter, I forbid you to take a risk like this!”
