Chapter 1371

Yang Yi

The sixteenth level was a vertical flight of stone stairs. The surface of the stone stairs was filled with ice and fire energy.

The power produced by this level of ice and fire energy was extremely terrifying. The surrounding air was alternating between hot and cold. The two types of energy intertwined with each other like countless insects.

If one was not careful, the ice and fire energy in the air could invade one's acupuncture points and enter one's body, destroying the most important meridians in one's body.

If one was not strong enough, an ordinary cultivator would not be able to stay here for long. They would be burned to death by this energy.

A figure was lazily lying in the middle of the stone stairs. His eyes were drowsy as he yawned without a care for his image.

"It's already the sixteenth level. This Ice and Fire Dual Polarity Palace is truly extraordinary. The ice and fire energy on the sixteenth level is terrifying. Fortunately, I have practiced the 'Air Holding Skill' and do not need to breathe. I will not be corroded by the ice and fire energy here."

Yang Yi hugged his head with both hands as he lay on one of the stone stairs. His eyes narrowed as he continued, "It's the sixteenth level. No one should be able to reach here. Even Fu Yu should not be able to. Looks like it was really easy to get first place."

Yang Yi shook his head as he spoke. A lonely expression appeared on his face as he said, "Life is so lonely. It's really boring to always be first place. Why don't I go down and play with Fu Yu?"

"Forget it. It's too tiring to go down. I'll just lie here and sleep for a while. If Fu Yu is not here by the time I wake up, I'll look for him again."

After speaking, Yang Yi twisted his body slightly and changed into a better sleeping position. He planned to fall asleep.

Swoosh!

A wild sonic boom suddenly resounded on the sixteenth level. Following it was a thunderous dragon roar.

Yang Yi, who had originally planned to close his eyes and sleep, twitched his ears. He abruptly stood up and lowered his head. He was stunned to see an enormous ice and fire dragon rushing up the stone steps below. Its speed was so fast that it was shocking to hear.

At the same time, a slender figure stood on the enormous dragon's head. This person was Zhuowen.

When Zhuowen saw Yang Yi, who was standing at the middle of the stone steps, a strange glint appeared in his eyes. This was already the sixteenth step. Even Zhuowen felt that the surrounding ice and fire energy was somewhat unbearable.

If it weren't for the Icefire Dragon, Zhuowen believed that with his current strength, it would be difficult for him to enter the sixteenth floor. However, this person was able to stand on the sixteenth floor so openly. It was clear how terrifying this person's strength was.

"The eldest disciple of Sky Capital Peak, number one on the Divine List, Yang Yi?"

Zhuowen muttered in a low voice. Naturally, Zhuowen had read the information regarding the personal disciples of the nine peaks. Among them, the most famous one was Zhuowen.

This person's talent was terrifying, and his hobby was sleeping. He basically slept all day, but his cultivation base was breaking through at an extremely fast speed. Everyone in the inner court was shocked. Even Old Man Tiandu, his master, found it unbelievable.

Yang Yi grinned and said, "Not bad, kid. You actually made it to the sixteenth floor. By the way, what's your name?"

Zhuowen calmly stared at Zhuowen and said indifferently, "Zhuowen!"

"Zhuowen?

So your name is Zhuowen. I've seen the battle at Sky Capital Peak. You're pretty strong, able to kill an Eighth Level Emperor as a Third Level Emperor. You're the most talented person I've ever seen. Of course, there's still a gap between you and me. "

Yang Yi chuckled. He didn't blush at all when bragging about himself.

"You flatter me!"

Zhuowen nodded. Immediately, the Icefire Dragon roared and rushed up the stone stairs. In three breaths' time, it had reached the middle of the stone stairs where Yang Yi was.

"Zhuowen, how about we hitch a ride?"

Yang Yi suddenly smiled. Immediately after, under Zhuowen's astonished gaze, he jumped up and landed on the dragon's back.

Roar!

"Get lost!"

The Icefire Dragon roared and crazily twisted its huge body. A dull and angry voice came from the dragon's mouth.

Yang Yi curled his lips and said, "Why are you so stingy?

If you can carry Zhuowen, why can't you carry me?

Your body is so big, it doesn't make much difference whether I'm there or not. "

As he spoke, Yang Yi's right hand turned into a claw and grabbed the dragon's body. He actually pried open the scales on the dragon's body and reached in with his other hand. He then pulled out a dragon tendon and held it in his hand.

"Bastard, how dare you peel my dragon tendon?

You're courting death. "

The Icefire Dragon roared furiously. The terrifying ice and fire energy on the dragon's body gathered together and instantly enveloped Yang Yi.

"You have quite a temper."

Yang Yi's lips curled into a smile. A destructive aura burst out from his right palm. Then, he slammed his palm on the wound that had been there just now.

Bang bang bang!

Muffled noises resounded from within the dragon's body. Soon after, Zhuo Wen's expression changed drastically as he discovered that the Ice Fire Giant Dragon was letting out a sharp roar. Immediately, the tail of the Ice Fire Giant Dragon began to crumble, causing countless amounts of fresh blood to spray into the air.

Boom!

The Icefire Dragon's eyes were filled with resentment. The part of the dragon's body where Yang Yi was also exploded. The terrifying explosive energy instantly drowned Yang Yi.

At the same time, the Icefire Dragon did not dare to stay here for long. With a twist of its body, it disappeared from the sixteenth floor.

The seventeenth level was a boundless land. As soon as the Ice Fire Dragon appeared on the seventeenth level, it slammed into the ground. Zhuo Wen, who was originally standing on the dragon's head, released his Celestial Energy and floated in the air.

At this moment, the Icefire Dragon was in a terrible state. Almost half of the dragon's body was covered in blood and flesh. Zhuo Wen could even see sections of dragon bones amidst the bloody flesh. It was extremely wretched.

"What terrifying strength. How can Yang Yi be so strong?"

Zhuowen's eyes flickered. The strength that Yang Yi had just displayed was much stronger than that of Shao Yu, the Peak Master of Ao Yuan Peak. Moreover, the attack that Yang Yi had unleashed contained traces of destructive power.

"Yang Yi has mastered the Law of Destruction. It seems that he deliberately shot down the Icefire Dragon to stop you from moving forward," Xiao Hei's solemn voice sounded in Zhuowen's mind.

"The Law of Destruction!"

Zhuowen's eyes darkened. The Law of Destruction was an extremely powerful Law. Although it could not be compared to the Law of the Void, it was much stronger than the ordinary Law.

"Young man, it seems that the Icefire Dragon that I have transformed into won't be of much use. I will inject the energy of the Icefire Dragon into your body so that you can smoothly pass through the seventeenth floor and reach the eighteenth floor where I am."

The Icefire Dragon, which was prostrating on the ground, stared at Zhuowen and made a dull sound. Then, its huge dragon body began to dissipate, turning into extremely pure Icefire energy and merging with the Icefire Sacred Rune on the back of Zhuowen's hands.

"Keep moving forward!"

The dull sound was heard. Then, the Icefire Sacred Rune on Zhuowen's hands bloomed with Icefire energy, turning into an armour of alternating Icefire and Icefire that covered Zhuowen's body.

Whoosh!

Zhuowen nodded and began to run forward. Zhuowen found that with the Icefire Armour on the surface of his body, the Icefire energy around him was almost non-existent.

At the entrance of the seventeenth floor, a lazy figure slowly walked out. Yang Yi looked around and suddenly found Zhuowen running in front of him. A strange look appeared on his face.

"The Icefire Dragon's aura doesn't seem to belong to Zhuowen. It's more like an energy life form that was born in the Icefire Dual Polarity Palace. But why is this energy life form helping Zhuowen?"

Yang Yi's eyes showed a trace of seriousness for the first time. After all, Zhuowen's cultivation was only at the Fifth Heaven Emperor Realm. It was very strange that he could reach the sixteenth and seventeenth floor.

"Could it be that the Icefire Sacred Rune is causing trouble?"

Yang Yi seemed to have thought of something. He squinted his eyes and then took a step forward, rushing in the direction that Zhuowen was running.

"Yang Yi is catching up."

Naturally, Zhuo Wen also heard the commotion behind him. From the corner of his eyes, he immediately saw Yang Yi approaching from behind.

"Junior Zhuowen, looking at you, it seems like something is helping you to reach the deepest part of the Icefire Dual Polarity Palace. Could it be that you have some kind of connection with the Icefire Sacred Rune on the eighteenth floor?"

Yang Yi, who was following behind Zhuo Wen for tens of meters, suddenly said with a smile, causing Zhuo Wen's pupils to shrink into needles.

"Senior Yang Yi, I don't understand what you're talking about."

Zhuowen turned a deaf ear to him. Huge purple lightning wings appeared on his back. At the same time, a surge of void energy was added to the lightning wings. In an instant, he escaped into the void. The next time he appeared, he was already a hundred meters away.

"The Void Immortal Scripture?

But your void energy is still not up to par. You probably haven't fully comprehended the void laws. Your speed is not enough. "

Yang Yi smiled faintly. His speed instantly increased by a few times. He was still closing the distance between him and Zhuowen.

However, when Yang Yi was about to reach Zhuowen, the energy of ice and fire on the seventeenth floor began to boil and turned into countless Icefire Giants.

Boom! Boom!

Boom! The Icefire Giants gathered together and attacked Yang Yi. In their eyes, Zhuowen was like air. They completely ignored him.

"It seems that the Icefire Sacred Rune is helping you. You have to reach the eighteenth floor before Yang Yi."

Xiao Hei's voice rang in Zhuowen's mind. Hearing this, Zhuowen nodded.

"Haha, it's really the Icefire Sacred Rune. Do you think these can stop me?"

Yang Yi laughed. There was a trace of excitement in his eyes. He slammed his right hand on the ground. With him as the center, the Destruction Law spread out. Wherever it passed, the Icefire Giants were destroyed.

However, there were too many Icefire Giants. Even though the Destruction Law Yang Yi displayed was very powerful, it was difficult to destroy the Icefire Giants in a short time.
