Martial Peak

Time flew by and Ice Sect was restored to its original tranquil state. Although the Saint Realm Elders could clearly feel a hint of blazing hot aura emanating from a certain ice mountain, under the strict orders of Qing Ya, no one went to disturb that place.

Ten days, one month, two months… The burning aura never once subsided, only flaring up from time to time before returning to a steady state.

Although the various Saints did not have a good impression of Yang Kai, the perseverance he showed still impressed them somewhat.

From time to time, Qing Ya and Qian Yue would stare in the direction of the ice mountain Su Yan slept within and sigh.

Inside the ice room of the ice mountain, Yang Kai acted as if he was possessed, repeating the same movements and motions over and over again, sending his True Qi and Divine Sense unceasingly towards Su Yan.

At first he didn’t receive any response, but over time, he gradually felt some unusual fluctuations which seemed to be weak threads of Divine Sense that seemingly wanted to respond to him but were unable to form a coherent message.

When he realized this, Yang Kai was ecstatic and immediately redoubled his efforts.

He lost all track of time and only felt a deep sense of exhaustion.

Suddenly, Divine Sense felt as if it had sunk into a dark, bottomless abyss and become lost.

A bone chilling cold seeped into his Soul, and Yang Kai couldn’t help opening his eyes and gazing around, but everywhere he looked, there was nothing but darkness. The only clear sensation he had was the profound cold that seemed to grip his heart.

This strange empty place exuded a feeling of solitude and loneliness but amidst that, Yang Kai faintly heard someone calling out to him.

His heart trembling, Yang Kai suddenly realized that this was Su Yan’s spiritual world.

Having displayed the Ice Body Sealed Heart, Su Yan was sealed, so her spiritual world being a void was understandable; however, there was still a tiny part of her subconscious that was trying to respond to Yang Kai, but like it had fallen into a nightmare, it couldn’t break free from this dark prison.

Yang Kai frantically searched for the source of the voice calling out to him, his feet never stopping, but the path he traveled seemed to be without end.

Releasing his Divine Sense as far as he could, Yang Kai explored this dark space while spreading his presence all around.

Eventually, from a certain place, Yang Kai received some unusual feedback and paused in place, closing his eyes and carefully examining it.

A moment later, he slowly opened his eyes and a light blossomed in the darkness in front of him.

Yang Kai smiled happily and his Soul Avatar quickly sprinting towards the light. As he approached it, he felt a familiar aura radiating from it; it was Su Yan’s Spiritual Energy.

The light grew brighter and brighter until eventually Yang Kai passed through it and the endless darkness that had surrounded him gave way a bright landscape.

Looking around, Yang Kai couldn’t help gawking slightly.

Because the place he found himself in was very familiar.
