The Path of the Sage

Chapter 1873: Climbing the iceberg

Several doctors and scholars rushed over and took out medical books to provide assistance.

After all the Ice Emperor guards self-destructed, there was no sign of recovery, and it seemed that even if they could recover, it would take a long time.

"Keep moving forward!" Yan Ningxiao's emotionless voice sounded.

Apart from the heavy snow, no more Ice Emperor guards came.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, they were finally safe.

After resolving the threat posed by the Ice Emperor's guards, the human race successfully reached the Ice Vein Mountains.

No one died on the journey, but after reaching the Ice Vein Mountains, some sick and elderly people felt relieved and died here with no regrets.

Although five hours was short, the process was thrilling. It saved the lives of hundreds of thousands of people at the cost of one great scholar being injured and another being exhausted.

The Ice Mountains are a series of undulating icebergs. Because there are all kinds of strange ancient materials in the icebergs, they emit all kinds of light, just like a colorful diamond mountain.

These mountains vary in height, the shortest is only one or two hundred feet, and the highest is a thousand feet. Fortunately, the Ice Vein Mountains remain unchanged all year round, and the human race has long obtained the complete map of the Ice Vein Mountains, so they can find the fastest route through.

The map showed that there was an entrance to the mountain 52 miles to the west. After resting for a quarter of an hour, everyone rushed there with all their might.

On the way, Yan Ningxiao summoned the great scholars and Fang Yun to discuss together, and everyone else was not qualified to participate.

The university scholars felt heavy-hearted when they saw the seven people together.

The changes in the Ice Emperor's guards were so great that they cast a shadow on everyone's heart.

The Zong family gathered together and whispered.

"Ye Tian, now that two great scholars are temporarily unable to fight because of the Ice Emperor's guards, can we reach the Wuding River smoothly?"

"It's just that more people die now and fewer people die later. Since fewer people die now, more people will die later. From the beginning of the ancient land's birth and death, human lives were just numbers. There's no need to care about them." Xiao Yetian's attitude was very indifferent.

"Now it's not a matter of life and death for the common people. Without enough great scholars, you may not be able to cross the Wuding River, let alone compete for the Ten Cold King. I simply cannot understand those two. They are simply playing with the future of the human race! If there is no Ten Cold King in our race this time when the ancient land is born and destroyed, it is equivalent to handing over the Ten Cold Ancient Land for a mere few hundred thousand people. The loss outweighs the gain."

"There is no need to worry either. Since these two great scholars have gone all out to save hundreds of thousands of people, they will certainly risk their lives to get me across the Wuding River."

Everyone in the clan nodded slightly. Xiao Yetian was indeed an outstanding person and was not affected by the superficial aspects of things at all.

"Ye Tian, you are really good-tempered. I would find it unbearable if it were me. Fang Yun is now just a useless person. Apart from opening a door, he has done nothing so far. In front of those Ice Emperor guards, he is no different from ordinary people! Why did the great scholar ask him to discuss the matter, but not you?"

Xiao Yetian's eyes moved slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but then he sighed and said, "I am a little envious of him."

"When you become the next Cold Lord of the human race, he will envy you. Compared with the Cold Lord who has lived for over 200 years, the mere Virtual Saint is just a false name. By then, you will be promoted to a great scholar with the help of the power of the Ten Cold Lords, and the incarnation of the Patriarch Saint will descend. I wish you to break free from the shackles of the Cold Lord's imperial crown. In fifty years at most, you will become the first semi-saint in the Ten Thousand Worlds who has the blood of both the human race and the ice race, and become the Lord of the Ten Colds, no less inferior to his Lord of Blood Mantle."

"That's true. For great scholars to discuss matters, Ye Tiancai should be invited. However, let's be patient for now. After all, he is a virtual saint."

"It's a pity that we don't know what they are discussing, otherwise we can prepare in advance."

"They don't have anything to discuss. The most important thing is to ask Fang Yun whether he can recover his strength before competing for the Ten Cold Kings. What a pity..." Xiao Yetian's tone was full of regret.

Everyone in the clan looked at each other, not understanding what was going on. Xiao Yetian's tone was very strange. He did not have the hatred that a normal clan member would have. Instead, his tone was full of regret, as if he knew something in advance.

"Ye Tian, can you explain it more clearly? Compared to you, we are simply old and confused."

"Yeah, what did you know?"

A group of clan members asked questions one after another.

Xiao Yetian pondered for a moment and said, "If my guess is correct, the change in the Ice Emperor's guards is just the beginning. Everyone remember, on the road ahead, stay away from Fang Yun, the farther the better. Even after leaving the Ice Emperor Palace, keep your distance from him. That's all I have to say."

After Xiao Yetian finished speaking, he sat on Pingbu Qingyun, holding the classic "Jingshi" written by Zongsheng, and read it carefully.

The other clan members discussed in low voices, not understanding what was going on.

Soon, the human race arrived at the entrance to the Ice Vein Mountains, and Fang Yun separated from the six great scholars.

Many people secretly observed and found that the seven people looked rather dull, and it was impossible to judge whether the result of their negotiation was good or bad.

Hu Li didn't say anything and continued to push Fang Yun forward.

The iceberg roads are slippery, so the humans gradually put on iron buckles, which are fixed on the shoes and have inverted buckles at the bottom. They can prevent sliding down when stepping on the inclined ice surface. At the same time, similar anti-slip gloves are installed on the hands. Many people are also equipped with hiking poles, all made by the workers, which are enough for the humans to cross the ice mountains.

Seeing the humans put on mountaineering equipment, the private soldiers of the Star Demon Barbarians finally felt better. In the Ice Vein Mountains, the Demon Barbarians and the Ice Clan were far stronger than the humans and could quickly pass through the Ice Vein Mountains without using anything.

The following process is the most difficult moment for ordinary people. Even if they are blessed with various war poems, it is extremely difficult to move forward and climb on the smooth icy peak.

Fang Yun's wheelchair was originally the most inconvenient, but with the Demon King around, he became the one who had it the easiest. For the Demon King who was able to lift tens of thousands of pounds without using his energy and blood, carrying Fang Yun was no different from carrying a wheelchair or a feather.

The Ice Emperor Palace became increasingly colder.

Even with the protection of the power of various war poems and even wearing cold-resistant leather clothes, some people with weaker health could not withstand the peculiar coldness of the Ice Emperor Palace and were frozen to death one after another.

At times like this, the medical family could only feel sad. This was not just an ordinary cold, but involved the power of a semi-saint or even higher. Unless a semi-saint from the medical field came in person, or held the holy book "Treatise on Febrile Diseases" in hand, even the great medical scholars would be helpless.

Before the Ice Vein Mountains, life and death were decided by the great scholars of the human race, but above the Ice Vein Mountains, everyone's life is in their own hands.

The group of 700,000 people was enveloped by the constant exhalation of breath. It was not simply water vapor, but a sign of life.

It is the most tenacious fighting spirit of the human race.

Those Star Demon Barbarian private soldiers who climbed up easily initially felt a sense of superiority over the human race, but after climbing together for two days, all the sense of superiority in their hearts disappeared, and was replaced by confusion.

The Yaoman tribe does have an advantage over humans in this kind of place. So, if the Yaoman tribe encounters the same difficulties, will they have the same fighting spirit? Will they have the means and wisdom to overcome the difficulties

The star monsters are confused. Tens of thousands of years ago, when they were fighting against the ancient monsters, the monsters did have the fighting spirit and ability to overcome everything. What about now

The star monsters were shocked to discover that, compared with the monsters of today, the human race was more like the monster ancestors who once fought against the ancient monsters, the heaven and earth, and all the worlds.
