Chapter 85 Dugu's Two Swords (Ice)
Chapter 85 Dugu's Two Swords (Ice)
Fan Chen slowly stepped forward and accepted the scepter symbolizing royal power. His voice was calm yet powerful: "People of Illusion Demon City, I, Fan Chen, accept this scepter today and will certainly live up to your expectations. I will use my life and wisdom to protect our homeland and make our city prosperous again."
Dugu Jianling: "Being free is pretty good. I like the feeling of being free."
With Fan Chen's ascension to the throne, a new era began in the City of Illusions. With Yun Muhan's assistance, Fan Chen began his rule based on wisdom.
He implemented new policies, reduced taxes, encouraged agriculture and sericulture, and built water conservancy projects. The lives of the people in the Illusionary Demon City gradually improved, and the city gradually returned to its former prosperity.
As for Yun Muhan, this great hero of the Demon Continent, although he has retired behind the scenes, his legend and spirit will forever inspire the people of the Illusion Demon City to move towards a brighter future.
————The Land of Ice————
"King of the Ice Kingdom, what is it?" Yun Muhan's tone was cold, as if he was somewhat displeased that he had disturbed his life.
"Yun Yingxiong, I meant no offense, but I have a treasure..."
"No need. Keep the treasure to entertain Emperor Fan. I'll be leaving now."
"Yun Yingxiong, your sword is named Dugu Bing, and only you are worthy to use it."
Dugu Jianling: Dugu Bing? Destiny.
"Dugu Bing? It's a pity that as a great hero, I cannot take even a needle or thread from the masses. You can keep it for yourself."
Dugu Jianling: Yun Muhan, *Stop pretending!*
"This was the idea of the Ice Phoenix Goddess. I hope that Hero Yun will not make things difficult for this junior."
"The Ice Phoenix still has some conscience, give it to me."
"...This junior will go and fetch it now."
"No need, I'll go myself." Yun Muhan's figure vanished instantly, leaving behind Bingyuan, whose face was clearly showing that he had been tricked.
"Ice Phoenix, do you still have any conscience?" Yun Muhan teased.
Dugu Jianling: "Easy to handle. I thought that Windwalker-Silence was really powerful."
The wings of the Ice Phoenix God are as if carved from the purest ice crystals. When they gently flap, they bring not only a gust of cold wind, but also a suffocatingly cold aura.
Each feather on its wings shimmered with a faint blue light, as if it contained the power of ice, and each flap left traces of ice crystals in the air.
As the Ice Phoenix Goddess gently flapped its wings, the temperature in the space plummeted. Moisture in the air quickly condensed into frost, and a thin layer of frost rapidly covered the ground. At the heart of this frigid current, a sword slowly emerged, its presence a perfect fusion of ice and sword.
This sword exudes a chilling aura, its blade seemingly carved from millennia-old ice, with a faint blue light flowing across its edge, as if frost were dancing on it.
A crystal-clear gemstone is inlaid on the hilt, emitting a faint glow that complements the cold aura of the sword, making the entire sword look both mysterious and majestic.
Tiny ice crystals could be seen forming and dissipating in the air around the sword. They spun and danced as the sword appeared, as if celebrating its birth.
A mist formed from condensed cold air swirled around the blade from time to time, making the sword look like a divine weapon born from ice and mist.
"This is Dugu Bing. I really didn't expect you to be able to defeat Windrunner-Silence so quickly. It seems I underestimated you."
Yun Muhan raised his hand and touched Dugu Bing directly. This time, there was no backlash or resistance. Yun Muhan easily controlled Dugu Bing, not only because he had cultivated the Lingbing Technique, but also because he had cultivated with Chu Ling Shuang, the inheritor of the Ice Phoenix God.
"Why am I stuck at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage? Do I have to search for four more items?"
"No need... However... a breakthrough requires the right timing. Don't be impatient... otherwise... you'll be doomed."
"Utter ruin? Is it that serious..."
Dugu Jianling: "I'm stronger after the fusion, but unfortunately there are still seven swords... Sigh... It doesn't matter. I just hope you don't go looking for other swords and live peacefully."
"What are you saying, Dugu Jianling? Aren't we doing just fine right now?"
"yes……"
"Next, we'll go to the Chain Demon Hall, then go back to the Snow Mountain later to listen to Miss Su's zither playing. Perfect."
Dugu Jianling: "What are we going to the snow mountain for? Let's just go find Miss Su. By the way, aren't you planning to take back that 'Dream Cloud'?"
“It’s all been given to Miss Su, there’s no reason to take it back. Besides, ‘Mengyun’ is fine with Miss Su.”
————Chain Magic Hall————
Qinggui: "The birth of a new emperor is all my fault... I had to provoke that Blood Shadow Demon Lord. Our Chain Demon Hall has no hope of rising again."
Qingmei: "That Yun Muhan's strength is too strange. He is clearly at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage, but he was able to kill the Windwalker-Jiemie, who is at the ninth level of the Divine Transformation stage. We are doomed."
Qing Kui: "It's over, it's completely over. We have the strength of a split-spirit cultivator, and we mainly cultivate the path of ghosts. It seems we are going to die here."
"Open the door, I'm here to bring you warmth!" The voice belonged to Yun Muhan.
