C51 The Reason Why He Went to the Ice Fire Peak

The reason for going to the Ice-Fire Peak.

Ever since the competition with the Sun Moon and Star Sect had ended, many of the Gatekeeper of the Sword Palace on the Qinxi Mountain had been excited for several days.

As the two sects that had split up from the Three Flowers Dao Palace, the Sun Moon and Star Sect occupied most of the sect's ancient records. It was also because of this that although the Zhehua Sword Palace had been enemies with the other party for generations, in fact, it had always been weaker in terms of confidence.

However, this situation had gradually changed in the past few decades. Including this time, the Sword Palace had won three out of the four battles between the two sects, and they had even won two consecutive battles. How could Gatekeeper of the Sword Palace not be happy?

As the Sword Palace celebrated, some small and inharmonious notes were intentionally or unintentionally ignored, just like a dispute that was currently occurring on the Falling Goose Peak.

"Know the law, what are your plans? Why didn't you let Master speak on that day, and instead allowed Huangfu Xuan to send you to the Ice-Fire Peak?"

Ye Zhifa was called up by Du Lin this morning. His eyes were somewhat sleepy. He yawned twice and lazily replied, "Master, your patience has improved a lot this time. You actually came to ask me this question three days ago."

Du Lin thought, if it wasn't for the fact that you were seriously injured in the martial arts competition... I had to let you rest for two more days. Why would I only ask this question today? However, on the surface, he wouldn't say these words out loud. Instead, he continued to glare at Ye Zhifa angrily.

Ye Zhifa looked at Du Lin's expression and knew that if he did not give a reasonable explanation, this master of his could turn hostile on the spot and then rush to the finger peak to fight Huangfu Xuan, forcing him to change his mind. He said, "Master, do you know how Wang Zhongchuan died?"

"You have already given me a hint. If I don't think of it again, I will be too stupid. But since you know that Huangfu Xuan killed someone, why did you still accept the punishment?"

Ye Zhifa asked again, "Master, did we have any evidence that it was Huangfu Xuan who killed him? Now, do we have a way to convince everyone to believe this? "

When Du Lin heard this question, he remained silent. Having befriended Ye Zhifa, there was no doubt that he had a better understanding of his senior brother. Huangfu Xuan's mind was deep and his means were strange, but after so many years, he was able to ascend to the position of Deputy Sect Leader of the Sword Palace. This showed how watertight his actions were.

Not to mention that Wang Zhongchuan's corpse had already been brought back by the Sun Moon and Star Sect, even if it was placed in front of them, it would be very difficult to find any clues to testify against Huangfu Xuan.

Seeing Du Lin's reaction, Ye Zhifa followed his previous words and said, "Taking ten thousand steps back, even if we can really prove that Huangfu Xuan killed Wang Zhongchuan, will this really affect him?"

Wang Zhongchuan was a true disciple of the Sun Moon and Star Sect, even if he was the worst among the seven of them. He was also one of the elite disciples of the Sun Moon and Star Sect. Huangfu Xuan had managed to kill the future elites of his old enemies. This was a great contribution to the Sword Palace. Therefore, even if this matter was revealed, it would not affect him at all. It could even add some points to his achievements.

Since Huangfu Xuan had not made any mistakes, he naturally could not easily change the punishment that Deputy Sect Leader had set for him. It seemed that it would not be easy for Ye Zhifa to escape unscathed.

Listening to Ye Zhifa's analysis, Du Lin nodded slightly. He felt that what Ye Zhifa said was true. It made a lot of sense. However, he vaguely felt that something was not right. After pondering for a while, he finally reacted. What Ye Zhifa said just now was nonsense. He, Du Lin, had never intended to reason with Huangfu Xuan.

Mortals could be killed by a higher rank official. Among mutants, one's cultivation base was equivalent to an official position. Du Lin's cultivation base had strengthened Huangfu Xuan by a large margin, so why should he reason with him?

"Your words seem to make sense, but as long as I insisted, Huangfu Xuan's words would not fall on you. Know the law, why did you stop me?"

Ye Zhifa realized that after saying a lot of nonsense, Du Lin actually did not get caught up in it. He could not help but feel that it was a pity, and then he began to talk about his true thoughts.

"Master, if it was any other punishment, I wouldn't be willing to accept it. However, to guard the summit of the Ice-Fire Peak for three years, not only is it not a punishment, it is also a good opportunity for me to cultivate."

Du Lin could not help but scoff at his words and said, "Do you know what kind of place the Ice-Fire Peak is?"

Since Ye Zhifa dared to say that it was a good opportunity to guard the summit of the Ice-Fire Peak, he naturally had some understanding of the environment there.

The Ice-Fire Peak was situated on the border between the Cold Forest Country and the Southern Jin Country. It wasn't one of the seven peaks of the Qinxi Mountain, but a different prefecture similar to the Snow Ridge.

This mountain was originally a volcano crater connected to the magma of the earth's lungs. If it were to explode, it was likely that the people and animals within a few hundred miles would not be able to escape. When the ancient mighty figures noticed this, they set up a formation in the belly of the mountain. It bound the restless magma.

In order to ensure that the formation could last for a long time, this formation would attract the heat of the magma during the day. At night, it would suppress the heat of the magma. This time, it would grind away the wildness of the magma. It also made the Ice-Fire Peak hot during the day. It was a strange scene of extreme cold at night.

Although Ye Zhifa had mentioned his understanding of the Ice-Fire Peak, Du Lin still felt that he had underestimated the dangers within. He said, "The changes in the temperature of Ice-Fire Peak day and night are not as simple as summer to winter. That place is a temporary fire cave and an ice cellar. Ordinary people might not even be able to last a day and night. If the disciples of the Sword Palace who were stationed there hadn't made a mistake and were punished... They would take turns every three months. It could be seen that it was not easy to stay in the Ice-Fire Peak. There was no need to mention that many strange beasts had been nurtured in such an environment. You said that going to the Ice-Fire Peak is a good opportunity to cultivate. I would like to know where this opportunity lies. "

"Master, the Ice-Fire Peak is the best place to cultivate the Great Uncle's cultivation technique."

"Great Uncle... Senior Brother Shi's cultivation technique! Know the technique? Are you crazy? Senior Brother Shi's cultivation technique will increase the pressure of the outside world. The Ice-Fire Peak is an extreme place to begin with, and you still dare to cultivate there? "

Ye Zhifa was still incomparably firm, and said," Only a place like that can bring out the effects of this technique even better. Master, this disciple's cultivation at the top of the Falling Goose Peak has already felt that the results are very little. If I want to make more progress, I'm afraid I have to go to the Ice-Fire Peak. Even if Huangfu Xuan didn't punish this disciple, this disciple is still thinking of taking the initiative to go to the Ice-Fire Peak."

His words were half true and half false. The effect of cultivating the Ice-Fire Peak was even better, but the effect of his cultivation wasn't bad. Ye Zhifa only dared to say that because Du Lin did not cultivate Shi Xunzhen's technique and could not expose him.

To Ye Zhifa, in order to get revenge for Shen Zhaoxi and Flatten Demonic Horseman as soon as possible, he was willing to take every shortcut that he could take.

After hearing what Ye Zhifa said, Du Lin understood that he could not convince him in the end. However, if he could not do it, others might not be able to do it.

"Alright, I'll let you pass this test. However, there are still a few guests coming to the Sword Palace today. You have to convince them."
