Chapter 1448: Winter's Crest

untless evil spirits will emerge, devouring souls and bodies. The white rhinoceros demon beast's fate would be far more tragic than it is now.The white rhinoceros demon's soul was repeatedly injured b...Beneath the sea.

After receiving the reminder from Elder Mei, Shi Xue immediately raised her guard.

While ninjutsu doesn't represent the full extent of an opponent's strength, the speed of their escape technique shocked both elders to the core. It was enough to warrant treating her as her most formidable enemy ever.

Fortunately, Elder Mei's order was only to entangle the opponent and delay time, there was no need to fight to the death.

Just then, Shi Xue saw a light appear on the horizon. Knowing it must be the person Elder Mei had spoken of, she was about to move when a nameless dread suddenly gripped her, and her pupils shrank in alarm.

The next moment, a violent force surged down from the sky. Shi Xue's scalp tingled, and she instinctively looked up. Her whole body stiffened instantly, her vision completely filled with silvery-white electric light.

The vast ocean.

A sky clear for a thousand miles, without any sign, a thick bolt of lightning brewed from nowhere, the deafening thunder startled the heavens, and in an instant it struck the sea surface, like divine punishment.

'Boom!'

The sea surface burst open, with countless sparks scattering in all directions, weaving together into a fine net of lightning on the ocean.

A woman's figure emerged, her face pale, blood trickling from the corner of her mouth. She maintained a posture of half-raising her head, her eyes seemingly frozen, revealing an expression of terror.

A crown of ice crystals floated above her head.

The phoenix crown with floral patterns is mysterious and exquisitely crafted. Entirely carved from a single piece of transparent dark ice, it reflects a seven-color halo under the illumination of sunlight and lightning.

At this moment, a fine crack appeared on the phoenix crown, visible to the naked eye.

The luster of the phoenix crown had also become unusually dim.

Shi Xue was still shaken from the ordeal.

Had she not been careful enough to put up a layer of defense beforehand, this bolt of heavenly thunder would have likely gravely injured her, or even caused her demise.

She instinctively looked in the direction of the newcomer, a surge of intense unease rising in her heart. Her silver teeth clenched, and she didn't hesitate for even a moment, disregarding the pain it caused to her precious artifact. With a quiet flicker, a talisman in her palm melted away.

"Wow!"

The heavens and earth suddenly grew dark.

The cold spread rapidly.

The water waves, stirred up by the thunderclap, were frozen in mid-air. The seawater solidified into ice floes undulating like waves.

Flakes of snow, as thick as goose down, began to fall from the sky. The vast expanse of the sea was engulfed by the raging wind and snowstorm, plunging into winter. At the very center of it all lay the direction Qin Sang had traveled towards.

Qin Sang saw the figure of the woman in the green dress appear and was not surprised by the result.

He raised his hand for a reason, that thunderbolt was a calculated move.

At the trade fair, he didn't seem to show any flaws.

Spiritual awareness has not been spied on or sensed by anyone.

The probability of this person being a minion of the Demon-Slaying Elder is low, so there are only two possibilities left: someone from the Xuan Tian Palace or a thief who wants to take advantage of the chaos and steal treasures.

If the other party is here for money, they deserve to be struck by lightning and die.

If it were someone from Xuan Tian Palace, they would be able to sense the mysterious ice box and discover that their speed was extraordinary. They would definitely be on guard and prepared, not so easily killed. At most, they would be seriously injured and lose their combat effectiveness.

And that was exactly the result Qin Sang wanted.

He intended to return the mysterious ice box and exchange it for other benefits with Xuantian Palace.

Since the other party was so arrogant, there was a chance to ask what was sealed in the ice box, and even get the way to open it, he wouldn't refuse.

> Besides, trading also requires strategy.

Because his skills were inferior, he was forced to return the mysterious ice box. By displaying his own strength, he made Xuan Tian Palace wary and take the initiative to propose conditions, which was fundamentally different.

To unlock the full potential of the mysterious ice box, Qin Sang needed to first make Xuan Tian Palace understand the true nature of their opponent. A battle was inevitable.

"Only one person came"

Qin Sang didn't find any hidden figures around this person, and felt a little puzzled. Could it really be a female thief who robbed halfway

Xuan Tian Gong dominates a single region. Even if the palace master is unwilling to take action, at least he should send a master of the middle stage of Nascent Soul over. This person is only at the initial stage of Nascent Soul, I'm afraid they won't even be able to keep that traitor.

At that moment, Qin Sang suddenly felt a chill. Without warning, the surroundings transformed into a snowy expanse, his figure swallowed by the blizzard and icy wind.

Qin Sang's expression darkened slightly.

He could be sure it wasn't the power of the spirit array. Neither he nor Tianmu Die had been able to sense the fluctuations of the array's power.

At the same time, Qin Sang felt the coldness around him intensifying. He felt like he was standing naked in an icy blizzard. The chill not only eroded his body but also transformed into a tangible shackle, entwining countless snowflake-like blades that relentlessly wrapped around him in the void, forming layer upon layer of restrictions, attempting to encase him in ice.

"That's their strategy"

Qin Sang's figure flickered in and out of the blizzard.

His question was answered, and he understood why there was only one woman in green clothes nearby.

It can now be said with certainty that this woman is from Xuantian Palace.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Those who came to Xuan Tian Palace were certainly not few in number. Fearing the old man of demons, they dared not act near Demon Island, so they dispersed in all directions.

This woman's task is clearly to buy time, waiting for backup.

“Looking at it this way, the seal of Jiuyou Demon Fire failed to block Xuantian Palace's perception of the mysterious ice box, but this perception has a range limit. They were afraid of missing the opportunity, and I disappeared with the mysterious ice box again, so they didn't hesitate to alarm the 混魔老人的 to make a move here. Otherwise, they could just follow me secretly and find my cave.”

Based on the other party's performance, Qin Sang guessed the facts to be eight or nine out of ten, accurately judging the situation.

However, to think that such a method could confine him is naive.

Qin Sang's sleeves fluttered, a wisp of demonic fire silently flowed out, forming a layer of flame armor under his robe. The piercing cold was instantly blocked outside.

This place is not far from the Demon Island. If they stayed entangled for too long, it might attract the old demon, so Qin Sang was extra careful when he commanded the demonic fire.

Otherwise, provoking both Xuantian Palace and the Devil-Slaying Elder would be too much for him to handle.

Clang!

A sword light leaped from the fingertips, its arc shimmering, soaring into the sky.

With a clear and resonant sword cry, the blade flared suddenly, transforming in an instant into a colossal sword that cleaved down at the front with terrifying force!

Where the giant sword passed, cold air swirled, and snowflakes melted.

This sword strike cleaved a gap in the blizzard.

Seeing Qin Sang seem unaffected, Shi Xue was dumbfounded, her eyes twitching rapidly. She turned her head and ran away.

She was first injured by a sudden bolt from the blue, then she didn't hesitate to trap her opponent with a precious Winter Rune, causing a violent depletion of her true essence. When the opponent broke free, she had no confidence that she could withstand even a few more attacks.

She feared that before reinforcements arrived, she would already be a prisoner in the enemy's hands.

“What on earth is going on How did the sacred relic end up in the hands of such a terrible person!”

Shi Xue cried out in pain.

"What a quick-witted woman!"

One sword after another, they carved a path through the snowstorm that blotted out the sun.

Qin Sang sensed Shi Xue's actions and let out a cold snort.

Predicting that more opponents might arrive, Qin Sang wasn't prepared to stay and fight them. However, before fleeing far away, he could try capturing this woman. She should be able to provide some information.

If the treasure is useless to him, trade both the person and the mysterious ice box back.
