The main body of Hanjun Palace seems to be a huge iceberg. I wonder which skilled craftsman carved out the palace from the iceberg.
Most of the palace's ice walls are transparent, but there is always a layer of light mist on some confidential areas, making it impossible to see the interior clearly.
The palace itself is very simple, it is nothing more than an iceberg hollowed out and carved, with some ice sculptures and patterns added. However, because of the characteristics of the ice, the entire palace exudes a strange light everywhere, and it is magnificent.
There was a strange rainbow above every door and window, which attracted Fang Yun's attention.
There is no heavy snow in Hanjun's palace. Only a few snowflakes will float in, embellishing this icy world and making the palace square no longer monotonous.
Fang Yun took a step carefully at first, but soon discovered that the ice surface was not very smooth, but more like an ordinary stone slab.
Yan Ningxiao introduced as he walked.
"There are many cities in the Ten Cold Ancient Land, but the only ones that can truly be called cold cities are the ten cities where the Cold Lord lives. All the other cities were built later. These ten cold cities, like the Ice Emperor Palace, are natural creations of this place. No matter how many times the Ten Cold Ancient Land is born and destroyed, it will reappear."
"This is the Grand Square. It's more than five miles from the outer gate to the main gate of the palace, which is very inconvenient. Also, look at the shape of this palace. It's very different from the style of the human race. It's extremely huge. The main hall was simply carved out of a huge iceberg. The two side halls were built by later generations, made of a large amount of ice blocks..."
Fang Yun walked forward while listening to Yan Ningxiao's introduction.
In front of the large square is the front of the palace. This main hall is extremely magnificent, with the highest point being over a hundred feet high, and can be called a huge monster.
Fang Yun only took a few glances and was certain that the owner of this palace was most likely an ancient demon, but he did not rule out the possibility that it was an early demon. After all, the ancient demon was the ancestor of the demons. The two sides had lived and fought together for hundreds of thousands of years and had merged with each other in many aspects.
Five miles is a long journey. Yan Ningxiao explained diligently. Fang Yun spent most of his time pondering the origin of the Shihan Ancient Land. At the same time, he was thinking about where the power that attracted him came from. At present, the biggest guess is Xing Yaoman. After all, Xing Yaoman believes in the Moon God, and he is the Moon Emperor.
When they approached the main hall, Yan Ningxiao finished his explanation and said with a smile: "Since you have entered the Shihan Ancient Land, I will tell you a little secret."
Fang Yun smiled, he didn't expect that this great scholar had such an interesting side.
"Please." Fang Yun said flatteringly.
“After you rebelled against the Punishment Hall, how to punish you gave the elders in the Punishment Hall a headache. My brother Ningshan wrote a letter to the elders in the Punishment Hall, punishing you to go to the ancient land to fight for the human race before you become a great scholar. During the Yueyang Tower Literary Meeting, if the Dragon Saint arrived in front of the Yueyang Tower, my Yan family would certainly come forward to gain your trust and let you enter the Shihan ancient land! Unfortunately, the Dragon Saint didn’t even get to the surface before he was scared back to the Dragon Saint Palace by your "Yueyang Tower Inscription." Yan Ningxiao said.
Several great scholars of the Yan family behind him smiled, while most of the Yan family members looked as if they had realized what was going on.
Fang Yun smiled helplessly and said, "It's all calculation. It seems that your Yan family can't find the right person."
"No, I can't find anyone more suitable than you." Yan Ningxiao said.
"If the Yan family takes action against the Dragon Saint, how confident are they in doing so?" Fang Yun asked.
"100 percent!" There was a hint of pride in the tone of the humble old man Yan Ningxiao.
"That's true," Fang Yuntou said, "However, just for the sake of a Han Jun, the Yan family would never be willing to confront the mighty Jiao Saint. I'm afraid they have other intentions, right?" Fang Yun said.
"When I meet the Ninth Lord of Cold, I will tell him the reason." Yan Ningxiao said.
Fang Yun nodded and said nothing.
When they reached the stairs of the main hall, most people stopped, only Yan Ningxiao, Fang Yun and the five university scholars went up.
The seven people came to the door of the magnificent main hall. Before they entered, Fang Yun felt a vast and majestic aura filling the front. He had no idea what kind of power it was, nor where it came from. He couldn't help but feel awe in his heart.
Fang Yun had a similar feeling when he entered the Sin-Suppression Hall, the Holy Temple and other places.
Fang Yun blinked, and the front suddenly became bright. The huge main hall was like a beautiful crystal palace. There was nothing fancy or elaborately carved. Everything looked so rough, but there was an indescribable beauty in it.
Deep in the main hall, more than three hundred feet away, stood a layer of ice platforms that were constantly stacked up. On the top of the ice platform, there was a throne that looked like ice and jade. On the throne sat an old man with an ice crown inlaid with red diamonds on his head. He was thin, with deep eye sockets, and a very faint red light flowing in his eyes.
When Fang Yun saw the throne, his eyes moved. Others might not know its value, but he could tell at a glance that the material of the throne was a rare divine object in ancient times, which was translated into the human language as "longevity jade", a divine object that could prolong human life.
No matter it is the dragon clan or the ancient demon, they all regard this body as a treasure.
Afterwards, Fang Yun took a look at the ice crown on the man’s head. It was also made of longevity jade, but the material was actually not as good as the larger throne!
Even though he was in a positive mood, Fang Yun still felt a desire to obtain the throne and give it to Yang Yuhuan.
However, a moment later, Fang Yun suppressed this thought. After all, this belonged to someone else. As a human being, it was harmless to have inappropriate thoughts. The difference between humans and animals was whether one could control his mind and not let inappropriate thoughts turn into words or actions.
Longevity jades were quite common a long time ago, but they were already extremely rare when the ancient demons rose to power. By the time the demons conquered the world, they were almost extinct. Even in the demon texts, there are few records of this divine object, and even if they are recorded, there is no accurate description.
But Fang Yun obtained the ancient monster's inheritance, and he saw this kind of longevity jade many times in the scenes of the ancient monster's inheritance.
The old man on the throne forced a smile and walked down slowly.
"I'm the Ninth Cold Lord, and I've long heard of the great name of Saint Fang Xu!" The Ninth Cold Lord had his hands behind his back, looking carefree, but his pale skin and dark circles under his eyes made him look less dignified.
Fang Yun was somewhat uncomfortable with this self-proclaimed name, but he knew that this was the rule of the Ancient Land of Shihan. Once he took over as Lord Han, he had to change his name.
"Fang Yun greets His Majesty Lord Han." Fang Yun bowed but did not perform any formal ceremony.
"Greetings to His Majesty, Lord Han!" Except for the great scholar Yan Ningxiao, the other five university scholars all bowed deeply with complete etiquette.
The Ninth Cold Lord smiled and walked closer, saying, "We are all family, no need to be polite."
This person's tone was clearly very kind, but his expression was a fake smile.
Yan Ningxiao said, "Your Majesty, Fang Xusheng came here for the ancient land of life and death. You are the Supreme of the Ninth Cold City, so you should explain why you invited him here."
The Ninth Cold Lord nodded and said, "Then let's talk business first. Fang Xusheng, the Yan family asked you to come here because they suspect that the Ice Clan and the Monster Barbarians have joined forces to completely drive our human race out of the Ten Cold Ancient Land!"
