"The Demon Emperor Bone is at the heart area."

After killing the ferocious Black Turtle, Duke Qian Ming immediately channeled his soul power into the huge body of the Black Turtle, locking onto the Demon Emperor's bone at the center of the turtle's body.

"Break!"

"The temperature in the air has dropped!"

As everyone was patiently searching for the Demon Emperor Bone, they suddenly felt the temperature in the air plummet.

As they went deeper and deeper, large amounts of cold energy floated in the air, constantly forming layers of ice on the surface of their skin.

"The world of ice and snow, a world of ice and snow has appeared before us."

Defending against the cold air's erosion, everyone flew for a while before realizing that a world of ice and snow, filled with flying snow, had appeared in the space filled with the fog of death.

Large snowflakes fell from the sky like flying goose feathers. The beating notes were beautiful and holy.

"Everyone, be careful. This world of ice and snow should be dangerous."

After flying into the world of ice and snow, which had a low temperature, Qian Minghou took out the ancient treasure, the Devil Snake Seal, and floated above his head, in case something dangerous could happen at any time.

"Ao! Ao! Ao!"

After flying for a short while, several Snow Beasts, who were living in this world of ice and snow, were alarmed. They opened their mouths that were full of fierce teeth and let out heaven shaking roars, rushing towards Qian Minghou and the others.

"Demonic Snake Seal!"

"Yin-Yang Chess!"

"Sea God Statue …"

Several huge Snow Beasts attacked. Marquis Qian Ming and the others immediately controlled their Ancient Dao Treasures to attack. Using the power of these treasures, they killed the Snow Beasts one by one until not even their bones were left, exposing the drops of blood in their hearts.

After reaping quite a bit of blood drops, the marquis and the others didn't continue to snatch the blood drops. They gave the blood drops they obtained from killing the snow beasts to the people of the three great holy lands, giving them some benefits.

"En, the temperature in the air has dropped again. There's something strange up ahead!"

The temperature in the Arctic Snow Forest plummeted once again, causing Qian Minghou and the others to look on vigilantly. They slowed down their pace as they searched for Demon Emperor Bone that might be hidden in the snow.

"Ice Pond, Strange Stone, a sword …"

After passing through layers upon layers of cold mist formed from countless layers of ice, everyone discovered that in the center of the pure white snow, an icy pond that constantly radiated cold air appeared.

In the center of the ice pond stood a strange, rugged stone. On the stone stood a long sword with its hilt exposed and indistinguishable from the real thing.

When Qian Minghou and his men appeared beside the ice pond, they released their powerful soul power to investigate the sword embedded in the stone. Streams of dazzling light spread out from the stone, as if they were lost in a black hole, absorbing everyone's soul consciousness, making them feel as if their souls had left their bodies.

"There's something wrong with that stone. Everyone, guard your minds and don't let that stone absorb your soul!"

Gan Minghou and Old Ze were the first to wake up from their confusion. They released a buddhist roar that circulated around everyone's ears, causing them to feel a great pain in their eardrums. Their souls trembled, forcefully pulling them back from their loss.

"What a terrifying stone. It actually possesses a miraculous ability to absorb souls. I can't believe that I can't detect that sword …"

Just now, Ye Zichen's soul was also lost for a moment. Since the sword stone had such a magical power, it showed that the sword was even more extraordinary, causing him to be very interested in it.

"Master Hou, why don't you let me try and see if I can subdue this sword?"

Elder Ze said slowly, his eyes burning with passion as he looked at the sword on the boulder.

"Alright, be careful!"

Qian Minghou nodded and said.

"Whoosh!"

Old man Ze flew up into the air, drawing an afterimage in the air. He was like a giant swan bird as he flew above the icy pond, closing in on the strange stone, as he tried to pull the sword out.

As Elder Ze approached, a large amount of illusory light filled with the power of hallucination shone out from the strange rock, producing a large number of illusions in front of him that confused his soul consciousness.

Nirvana stage practitioners were existences who had challenged the gates of the Heavenly Realm. Regardless of whether it was strength or soul, they were all extremely powerful.

Soul light shined from Old Ze's body like two big hands, tearing apart many illusions and appearing on the strange rock. One of them grabbed onto the exposed part of the rock which was covered with ancient patterns and had a huge gem embedded in the sword hilt, wanting to pull it out …

"Buzz buzz buzz …"

All of a sudden, this longsword began to tremble as ear-piercing sword hums sounded out one after another. Large amounts of sword light shot out, attacking Elder Ze and injuring his hand, forcing him to retreat.

"Sky Splitting Hand!"

An extremely sharp sword light shot out, and Elder Ze immediately used his inheritance ability. A large amount of Dao Insight formed into a giant hand that possessed the power to split open the incoming sword light.

However, the sword beam that was split apart was extremely powerful. A series of intense friction sounds rang out, and the Sky Splitting Hand was torn apart.

"Yin-Yang Chessboard, break!"

Elder Ze's expression changed slightly as he unleashed the extremely powerful Yin-Yang Chess. Borrowing the power of the ancient treasure, he shattered one sword beam after another.

"I don't believe that I can't pull you out!"

Carrying the might of an ancient treasure, he shattered the sword beams that were constantly thrusting out. Elder Ze continued to try pulling the sword out.

However, this sword seemed to be inextricably linked with the strange rock. Elder Ze tried several times, but failed to pull it out in the slightest.

Since he was unable to pull the sword out with brute force, Elder Ze immediately forced out a large amount of blood essence and tried to bind it with blood.

However, when his blood flew onto the sword hilt inlaid with gems, it strangely froze. It was impossible for it to seep into the sword hilt.

Just as Elder Ze was thinking of a way to go about it, a towering sword ray flew out from the sword. It was like a sword dragon piercing through the heavens, fiercely chopping at the Yin-Yang Chessboard, creating an endless sword might and forcing Elder Ze to retreat, the qi and blood in his body violently churned.

"Elder Ze, come back. There's something strange about this sword. It's hard to subdue it!"

When Qian Minghou saw the trace of blood on the corner of Old Ze's mouth, his brows slightly furrowed as he spoke in a low voice.

"If I feel it's not bad, then this sword should be one of the best of the best."

Having experienced the might of the sword, Elder Ze flew back to Qian Minghou's side and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth as he slowly spoke.

"Mm, to be able to injure you through an Ancient Dao Treasure, it is clear that the sword's power has reached the level of a top-grade Dao Artifact." The duke of Qian Ming nodded. He was determined to get this sword.

If he could obtain it, his attack power would increase by ten times. Even if he were to meet an ordinary Nirvana stage old monster, he would still be able to put up a fight.

"I'll try and see if I can subdue this sword."

While speaking, he summoned the seal of the Demon Snake, and then flew up into the air in a flash. He then passed through the layers of illusory power and grabbed the hilt of the sword that was embedded with the mysterious stone.
