Extreme Almightiest Young Master-Chapter 1873 - 1855: I Know You’re a Demon Beast
In the distance, Qin Kun and Wu Shan were focused on battling their respective opponents. Demon Beasts of the Demon King Realm couldn’t transform into human shapes, so their combat power in their true forms was incredibly formidable. Both of their opponents were Panthera Monsters, and being able to fight such agile beasts to a draw showed just how extravagant Qin Kun and Wu Shan’s actual strength was now.
Because they were too focused, Qin Kun and Wu Shan didn’t notice Fang Yan appearing, but the two Demon Beasts of the Demon King Realm did. They withdrew from the battle one after another and ran straight to Fang Yan’s side. Seeing the two Demon Beasts behave like this, Qin Kun and Wu Shan finally noticed Fang Yan had come.
"Boss, why are you here?"
"Boss, what are you here for?"
The two of them dodged and arrived next to Fang Yan, asking with surprise that Fang Yan would appear here. But they knew that Fang Yan suddenly coming to find them definitely had a reason, so at this moment, neither of them wasted words.
"I’m here to take you to the Ice Abyss, are you two going?" Fang Yan looked at the two and said calmly.
"Ice Abyss? We’re going!"
"Why wouldn’t we go? We don’t even know how that big spider is doing!"
Upon hearing Fang Yan’s proposal, Qin Kun and Wu Shan’s eyes brightened. They remembered the Ice Demon Spider in the Ice Abyss, and in the Ice Abyss, they could also undertake trials; how could they possibly not want to go.
"Alright, let’s head back to the Sect now." Fang Yan nodded upon hearing their words, then turned to a middle-aged man with a dark complexion and said, "These two have been troubling you lately. If you ever need any help with Alchemy in the future, don’t hesitate to ask me; I definitely won’t refuse."
"Mr. Fang, you’re too kind. We’re all like family, and my two subordinates have gained a lot from battling them, enhancing their strength considerably. This is a win-win situation that makes me quite happy. Do come over if you have free time, you’re always welcome." The dark-faced middle-aged man replied with a smile.
"Mr. Fang, these two men of yours are ridiculously powerful. We’ve never run into cultivators who can single-handedly face us in the Heaven Flipping Realm!"
"Mr. Fang, this battle has made us quite happy, our strength improved a lot!"
The two Panthera Monsters lying on the ground spoke in human tongue, even though they had taken quite a beating recently. However, they were indeed pleased, for battling Qin Kun and Wu Shan allowed them to experience things they’d never felt before, aiding in their breakthrough to the Demon Immortal Realm. Thus, they both expressed gratitude to Fang Yan for allowing Qin Kun and Wu Shan to come to the Heaven Demon Forest.
"No need to be so formal, we’re leaving now. See you next time."
At this moment, Fang Yan didn’t dawdle. With a simple goodbye, he turned and left with Qin Kun and Wu Shan.
But just as the three of them were disappearing, suddenly two objects shot over from afar. Before the two Demon King Realm Beasts could react, they entered the beasts’ mouths, swallowed down their throats and into their guts, leaving the beasts bewildered, wondering what had just happened.
"You two fools, Mr. Fang has granted you elixir; quickly calm down and use your Demon Energy to dissolve its potency," the dark-faced middle-aged man chastised, though with a smile. Fang Yan was so young, yet possessed such a broad mind. He was unlike any other cultivators in the Eternal Immortal Realm. Getting acquainted with Fang Yan was his fortune - indeed, a blessing for all the Demon Beasts in the Heaven Demon Forest!
Watching the two Panthera Monsters lying motionless on the ground, dissolving the elixir’s potency, the dark-faced middle-aged man turned and left...
Fang Yan, accompanied by Qin Kun and Wu Shan, once again boarded the Cloud Travel Tower. The Cloud Travel transformed into a beam of white light, shooting straight toward the Ice Abyss’s location.
It was the same place, the same scenery, and having come here once before, they immediately followed the original route to enter the Ice Abyss. But this time Fang Yan didn’t lead the two to the first layer, going straight to the second layer instead.
"You two go in, these elixirs are prepared for you. Here, life and death shall depend on fate. Your main priority is self-preservation, nothing else matters." Standing at the entrance to the second layer, Fang Yan told the two, then tossed a few elixir bottles to them.
The two grabbed the elixir bottles, then looked at Fang Yan, and said in unison: "Boss, aren’t you coming in with us?"
"Why should I go in? This layer presents no challenge to me; I’m headed further below." Fang Yan replied with a smile when hearing their question. His purpose for coming to the Ice Abyss this time was for the lower layers, so he couldn’t waste time on the second layer. This layer was for cultivating trials in the Heaven Flipping Realm. Though he too was at the Heaven Flipping Realm Peak, his actual strength had long surpassed that realm. This layer offered him nothing beneficial, so he wouldn’t waste time here.
Upon hearing Fang Yan’s words, Qin Kun and Wu Shan nodded collectively. The boss truly was extraordinary; indeed, this layer held no significance for him. Thinking of this, they said no more, waved their hands goodbye to Fang Yan, then pushed open the door leading to the interior.
They would never even dream that this time Fang Yan would venture down beyond the third layer...
Separated from these two, Fang Yan continued descending the spiral stairs, taking a whole hour just to reach the third layer’s door. Here, the cold Qi had surged to a grotesque intensity. It was no exaggeration to say, any creature appearing here might immediately freeze into an ice sculpture!
Even Fang Yan could feel the cold, indicating how low the temperature had dropped here. This made Fang Yan smile at the corner of his mouth. This was just the start, sparking his anticipation for what lay within the third layer.
The Gang Qi from his body circulated naturally, driving the cold Qi away. Smiling, he pushed open the third layer’s door. His eyes were greeted with a jaw-dropping scene.
This layer stood several hundred feet tall!
The various ice inside was no longer white; it had turned pure blue, like pure blue crystal, gleaming translucently!
Even more exaggeratedly, the cold Qi had been reified, like pale blue fog enveloping the entire ground of this layer, looking almost like the legendary Immortal Realm!
"Oh my, that’s truly impressive."
Seeing such a scene, Fang Yan chuckled. Though the cold Qi wasn’t much to him, it was already formidable. For any Human Immortal Realm initiates here, they likely couldn’t withstand the rapid depletion of Gang Qi and would turn to ice within no time; it was indeed an exciting third layer.
Not dwelling too much, Fang Yan stepped inside without Qin Kun and Wu Shan dragging him down, allowing him to move swiftly, further extending his Divine Sense to encompass several thousand miles.
But Fang Yan hadn’t expected that the third layer’s expansiveness would exceed his imagination. At his current pace, he rushed about for four or five days, yet his Divine Sense hadn’t found the edge of this layer, revealing how terrifyingly large it was!
Along the way, there was nothing but ice and cold Qi, nothing else. Instead of being disappointed, this piqued Fang Yan’s interest even more. He knew this layer wouldn’t truly be empty and, moreover, the Ice Demon Spider had mentioned certain things before. Thus, he genuinely wanted to see what kind of Demon Beasts or special locations this alternate environment might harbor.
After rushing for over two hours, Fang Yan’s Divine Sense finally picked up the first Demon Beast, a smile tugging at his lips. He hadn’t anticipated that the Demon Beasts here would also be so intriguing, prompting him to dash toward the beast with immense speed, forming a pure blue dragon behind him due to the fast-moving vacuum channel attracting the surrounding cold Qi...
When Fang Yan halted, a massive ice block towered before him, appearing seemingly normal, resembling all ice blocks in the Ice Abyss. Yet somehow, this particular ice block drew Fang Yan’s attention. Smiling, he spoke to the ice block, "I know you’re a Demon Beast, don’t stand on ceremony; come out and meet me!"
If anyone were present, witnessing Fang Yan speaking to an ice block, they might think Fang Yan had lost his mind. But Fang Yan’s actions were backed by his absolute confidence in his own skills; otherwise, he wouldn’t rouse this slumbering ice block.
As soon as Fang Yan’s words fell, the ice block suddenly started moving. Accompanied by rumbling sounds, the pure blue ice atop the ice block shattered continuously, swiftly revealing the beast’s true form.
Before Fang Yan stood a Demon Beast towering twenty feet high, uniquely shaped, somewhat resembling Earth’s crabs yet different. This creature was enormous, supported by ten legs beneath a flat body, leaving Fang Yan confused about its exact kind.
But as soon as the beast finished stretching, it suddenly withdrew its stance, its form flashing blue light and transformed into what looked like an elder in his hundred-tens, with pure blue hair and skin. This intrigued elder looked at Fang Yan and asked, "I’m quite curious. How did you manage to come here? You know, all previous cultivators who’ve encountered me were at least in the late Human Immortal Realm; it’s my first time meeting a young lad of the Heaven Flipping Realm."
This demon beast’s name was quite special, known as the Ice Armor Cold Emperor Scorpion, a native existence that had lived in the Ice Abyss since its birth. Years had seemingly passed, or so the beast knew, as it had already reached the peak power of the Demon Immortal Realm, just one fortuitous opportunity away from the Demon Venerable Realm.
Before now, the Ice Abyss had only seen powerful Human Immortal Realm masters. The unexpected appearance of such a Heaven Flipping Realm lad capable of recognizing the beast while it was asleep intrigued the beast greatly, prompting him to show himself.
