Beginning Of Multiverse Saga-Chapter 309: Christ Is Imposter

After tailing them like that for a long time, Alina couldn’t help but lean against Sharky. Her voice was shaking a bit too as she remarked, "Do you not feel that the temperature here is abnormally cold?"

Sharky nodded and said, "The temperature has been getting lower and lower the deeper we go, ever since we started approaching this place. The change is beyond what normal wind and snow could achieve."

---

The Great Snowy Mountains weren’t called that because of the present snowstorm; that was what the towering and precipitous ridges were actually called. The elevation was high, the conditions were vile, and the mountains were permanently covered in snow; that was why they were called the Great Snowy Mountains.

The highest peak of the Great Snowy Mountains was called the Great Snowy Peak. Not only was it covered in snow year-round; at sunrise, only that peak alone would be bathed in sunlight and glow with dazzling golden brilliance. That was why the native tribes and fiend races all viewed the Great Snowy Peak as a sacred mountain.

There had been many legends related to the place since ancient times. For example, there were some tribes that believed a deity had been born there; some tribes’ saints were believed to have received enlightenment there; some believed their god had descended there when they entered the mortal world...

There were many such legends and rumors.

Even though the cultivators of this world were much stronger than ordinary humans, the Great Snowy Mountains’ biting cold blizzards were still not an environment humans could live in.

Together with the various beasts that roamed the area and the presence of certain mysterious forbidden regions, even though there were still some who wished to make a pilgrimage to Great Snowy Peak, very few returned alive.

The two of them had already been climbing the mountain for a while, but they were still only in the outer region of the Great Snowy Mountains. They hadn’t reached the forbidden regions yet.

"I cannot help but feel that this place is a bit strange. We need to be careful." Alina looked around and warned Sharky. The Great Snowy Mountains had too many mysteries surrounding them, so she didn’t dare to treat the place lightly.

Sharky said reassuringly, "The fact that it is strange means we came to the right place. It seems we are getting closer to the truth."

Alina was stunned. Then, she smiled and said, "You are surprisingly optimistic."

The two of them chatted as they looked around. In the end, they stopped at a cave. Sharky remarked, "This was where they disappeared just now. This should be the place."

All that remained so high up in the Great Snowy Mountains were blizzards and snowstorms. Fortunately, there were some faint footprints leading toward the cave, so it was likely the right place.

Alina agreed, saying, "Be careful."

Even though they had the cover of the snowstorm, Christ and Uncle Ming were crafty individuals. It was hard to say whether they had noticed that they were being tailed, and thus set up an ambush inside.

Sharky nodded. He exercised full vigilance as he and Alina snuck into the cave.

The howling wind and snow outside disappeared as soon as they entered. It was shockingly silent inside, as if they had entered another world. The stone walls of the cave were bluish-white like jade, but also like ice.

Alina couldn’t help but shiver. She hugged herself, grabbing her own shoulders tightly. Sharky couldn’t hold her hands in that position, so he pressed his hand against her back. A stream of warmth entered her body.

A flash of redness entered Alina’s face. She had covered her chest before on purpose because she was worried that Sharky would see she was cold, then grab her hand to transmit heat again.

However, she hadn’t expected him to still be so enthusiastic, putting his hand against her back. Still, Sharky had done it out of good intentions, and moreover he was her husband, so she was happy for getting the care and love.

She spoke to him through ki transmission in order to hide her embarrassment. "The strange cold we felt earlier should be coming from here. But this is so strange; I have resided in Cloudcenter Commandery for so many years, and yet I have never heard of this kind of cave existing here."

"The Great Snowy Mountains are so large; it’s unsurprising that you doesn’t know about it." Sharky replied seriously. "This place is strange; there might be trouble ahead. Be careful."

Alina nodded slightly, then took the lead. Sharky quickly followed along.

The further in they went, the colder it became. Because of this, Alina can’t even stood a second without him.

Sharky couldn’t help but smile. This woman’s body is surprisingly honest. He held her soft hand again, sending in heat. A bit of color quickly returned to Alina’s pale cheeks, making her already gorgeous face look even more tender and beautiful.

Just then, they heard a burst of intense coughing in the distance. It was followed by Christ’s faint curses. "Damn it all! Why is this place so cold?!"

He was a master rank cultivator, so he should have been able to resist such cold. But he had been seriously injured not too long before, making it somewhat difficult for him to tolerate the place in his current state.

Sharky and Alina’s eyes lit up. They had found their targets after all.

"Whatever, just wait for Luke Vale, and then we will return." Uncle Ming clearly sounded cautious.

Sharky was startled when he heard that. They passed through what seemed like a tunnel. The opening at the other end led to a spacious area. The voice had come from there.

Alina took out a sparkling and translucent stone. It was the recording stone from before. She gestured for Sharky to hide in a corner with her, then carefully extended the recording stone. It wasn’t big at all, so unless the two villains focused on their direction, they wouldn’t notice anything.

Then, she took out another recording stone carved with some complicated runes. She arranged the two pieces in a special manner, and a soft beam of light emerged from them and hit the wall on the other side.

The image displayed a clear scene. It was a spacious area the size of several soccer fields. Because of the surrounding light blue ice, there was good visibility in the cave.

Sharp icicles that were several meters long hung overhead. Some fell from time to time, dropping from several dozen meters above. Even a cultivator might be impaled to death if they were caught off guard. However, when the dangerous icicles hit the ground, they exploded into endless shards of ice, but the floor below took no damage at all.

The ground was somewhat rugged, with strange stones everywhere. However, there was a pool deep inside the area. Above the pool hung a giant icicle that was several dozen meters long.

Calling it an icicle wasn’t all that suitable, however, because it looked more like one of the stalactites from the karst caves in the south. But the area was bitterly cold, so how could there be stalactites? The icicle was much larger than the others, weighing down on the area like Mt. Tai. It almost felt as if the entire place would be destroyed if it fell.

However, Sharky and Alina were more curious about something else. How could there be a pool in such a cold place? It should have frozen over a long time ago.

Meanwhile, Christ and Uncle Ming were standing in front of the pool, staring at it in a daze.

"I really did not want to come back here again." Christ’s voice was shaking a bit.

"I did not want to either," Uncle Ming added after having remained silent for some time. "But we have no choice because of the order of the Duke."

"What about the item inside the pool, did you think we should check it once?" Christ asked Uncle Ming.

"The thing inside, should stay inside, we should not take it outside," Uncle Ming said.

"Uncle Ming, please go and check it once, I still want to see it again," Christ said as he looked toward the pool.

Uncle Ming was a bit hesitant, but he still nodded and replied, "Fine!"

He made some preparations, and after warming himself up, he jumped straight into the pool. A while later, he returned with a large chunk of ice. He was dripping wet, and the water began to freeze at a visible rate as soon as he climbed ashore.

He immediately used his ki while moving toward a bonfire that had already been prepared beforehand. Only then did he snap out of his daze and exclaim, "Second master, I don’t know, whenever you came here, why should you see that face!"

---

"A corpse!" Sharky and Alina exclaimed as they exchanged a look.

They have came here to find what Christ and Uncle Ming were planning, but they didn’t thought.

Because of Christ’s curiosity, they found some other hidden secret.

The two of them looked at the chunk of ice Uncle Ming had dragged out of the water. It was about the size of a person, and there was a man lying inside, sealed in thick layers of ice. However, the ice was clear and translucent, so one could still vaguely make out the face of the one inside. His complexion was pale.

Seeing the corpse, they become shocked, because the corpse’s face was the same as the Christ.

"How could the face be the same as Christ?" Alina asked, looking at Sharky.

But then, she noticed that anger started appearing in Sharky’s eyes.

"Now, I understand, why Christ has changed, why this all happened," Sharky murmured, but it shows he was clearly so angry.

---

"I feel satisfaction, everytime I see that idiot face," Christ said, as he touched the frozen corpse.

"Second Master, I think this time, we should destroyed the corpse, or our secret will be appeared," Uncle Ming said.

"Ok," Christ nodded, and agreed with Uncle Ming.

"You will not have that chance!" a voice exclaimed coldly. Sharky was already walking over with an angry expression.

How could he still hold herself back? The corpse of the one who had been his brother. And these guys not only killed his brother, but also impersonated him.

Christ and Uncle Ming jumped in fright.

"Duke, why are you here?" Christ shouted in a panicked tone. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

But Sharky didn’t respond to him, he arrived beside the frozen corpse.

With his touch, the ice melted, and the corpse of Christ appeared in front of him.

Both Uncle Ming and Christ were panicking, they didn’t know what to do?

But suddenly, a sinister gale rushed toward Sharky’s side. Uncle Ming had made his move as well!

Uncle Ming’s eighth rank cultivation was actually quite high. Such a vicious attack from him was difficult to defend against. At that instant, his killing intent even exceeded that of many ninth ranked cultivators.

His attacks were strange. If the other party backed up at all, they would suffer an endless flurry of continuous strikes. His attacks would also become more powerful over time. If they didn’t back up, his stored power would still catch his opponent off guard. Even opponents whose cultivations were higher than his might suffer bitterly.

Christ was waiting for an opportunity to attack too. As long as Sharky got injured, afterall, both of them were caught, so, they have only a single chance.

However, Sharky didn’t evade at all, nor did he choose to face them head on. He just brought his hand towards Uncle Ming.

Uncle Ming stared blankly. Don’t tell me even this flimsy move can act as a shield?

Still, he knew there was definitely something strange about it. However, he still had great confidence in his attacks. His killing intent and momentum had both reached their peak, so there was no reason for him to avoid the hand

He roared, his aura surging again. Because he didn’t know what Sharky was hiding, he didn’t dare to hold back at all. However, he knew Sharky definitely possessed some hidden strength. His attack would only seriously injure him at worst; the chances of him killing him weren’t that high.

Afterward... There was no afterward. The vicious and ferocious Uncle Ming instantly started burning. And in an instant, he was burnt to ashes.

Christ was stupefied. He had wanted to call out to Uncle Ming, and yet, a second later, Uncle Ming had completely turned into ashes without a trace. He looked at the Sharky in alarm, exclaiming, "What kind of sorcery is this?"
