Chapter 905: Unintentional Enlightenment
If Yue Yang didn’t go to White River City with Princess Qian Qian, he would have asked Xue Wu Xia to explore the ancient runes.
After all, a world of two was proven to be warmer than one.
But she was indeed invited.
If Princess Qian Qian was left behind and he just went out with Xue Wu Xia, Yue Yang estimated that Tigress would be so angry that she could not eat well and couldn’t sleep for three days and nights. Although the Tigress Princess Qian Qian was rather rogue, Yue Yang still loved the girl to death in his heart. So he grabbed Princess Qian Qiani’s little hand and didn’t let go.
“Okay, I’ll go alright?” Princess Qian Qian was not a fool as she could understand Yue Yang’s intentions.
“Tigress is so obedient!” Student Yue Yang was overjoyed when he heard this as that was what he was waiting for.
“The Third Young Master’s method of picking up girls is really clever. I’m impressed, so impressed…” Xue Wu Xia was slightly annoyed and couldn’t help but tease him. Yue Yang replied with a smile on his face, “Bro, I just want a meal, you know? Let me make a living!” When it came to tactics, who else could be as skilled as the Third Young Master of the Yue Clan? That said, Xue Wu Xia felt as if her fist was hitting against a lump of cotton. Feeling helpless against his charms, she had no choice but to reward him with an eye roll, which was regarded as forgiving him for the little protest before. Princess Qian Qian gave Xue Wu Xia a slightly apologetic look, saying that she didn’t intend to destroy their ‘two-person world’ and it was the kid who insisted on dragging her along.
Xue Wu Xia smiled indifferently.
This was nothing to her. If she didn’t want Princess Qian Qian to join them, she wouldn’t have waited until Yue Yang ‘blocked her way and invited her midway on their journey’.
It would be better for Tigress to follow us—there would only be improvement if there was competition. Luo Hua, Wu Hen, Yi Nan and the others were not deemed competition. Only someone who had the Six Records could compete with me— which was none other than Tigress!
At the 10th floor of the Tong Tian Tower.
Xue Wu Xia led the way to a unit world full of ice and snow.
In the entire unit world, there was no life and no vitality. Looking around, there was an endless snowy field.
All of the mountains and rivers were made of ice. There was no soil, no sand, no rocks and no life. The entire unit world was merely filled with heaps and chunks of ice!
“This world is weird, how did you find it?” The well-informed Yue Yang has never seen such a peculiar world of ice and snow. Even if it was cold, there would still be life in a normal ice-filled world. However, there were no signs of life here, not even ice elemental beasts or beings that would normally exist in an icy area. It was absolutely unimaginable.
“This was the case. Night Empress mentioned a book, saying that there were many miscellaneous books in the Innate Alliance. For example, there was a book that introduced strange things and strange stories recorded by different explorers from different eras. Elder Nan Gong was coincidentally going to the Soaring Dragon Continent as well, so I requested him to bring in some books. I did not go in depth about the other strange occurrences, but the description of this Ice World piqued my interests a lot. Hence, when you were refining the Beast Bracelets with Night Empress, I came here alone for an observation. I realised that here, there was an unexplainable type of ice energy present. And through three days and three nights of searching, accompanied by the Storm Goddess, we were finally able to find an ice mountain that is about 6000 kilometers from here. I suspect that there should be a Frost Type Ancient Rune there!” Xue Wu Xia explained about what had happened.
“With the Frost Type Ancient Rune, I believe you can be promoted to the Innate Supreme realm, but I don’t know when my time will come!” Princess Qian Qian couldn’t help but sigh. With the Prison Emperor’s Divine Sword in her hands, how could her progress be inferior to Xue Wu Xia?
“This is just luck!” Xue Wu Xia said that it had nothing to do with strength.
“Luck is also a part of strength.” Princess Qian Qian took a deep breath and put aside the problem in her heart. The stronger Xue Wu Xia was, the less likely would she concede defeat.
“Actually last time…” Yue Yang extorted a seemingly astonishing White Tiger Pearl from Lord Black Flame. He didn’t care about it, but when he was free, he used the Nirvana Flame to purify it and then used his Innate Sword Qi to finish the job. With a shock, he unlocked the seal and discovered that it turned out to be an Ultra Holy White Tiger Sacred Pearl.
Yue Yang deliberately took Princess Qian Qian to White River City of the Heaven Realm as he already had the intentions of initiating the Double Cultivation among the two in their own world.
It’s just that Xue Wu Xia’s plan to find the ancient runes postponed the plan slightly.
Princess Qian Qian not only knew that he had harvested Vulcan Soul Refining Herb, Di Gui Yin Flame and the Di Yan Ore, she was also aware that Yue Yang had successfully obtained a Duo Luo Pearl Necklace through blackmail.
Because she was too surprised that Yue Yang had managed to extract the Vulcan Soul Refining Herb, she didn’t pay attention to hearing that there was a White Tiger Pearl that was left behind.
At that time, Yue Yang didn’t realize that the unbelievable White Tiger Pearl was a Holy treasure, so he didn’t say much. It wasn’t until the research on the Beast Bracelet was successful that he had discovered its true appearance. With that, he also thought of giving Princess Qian Qian a surprise.
He was about to speak about the White Tiger Sacred Pearl when he felt that there was a sudden energy fluctuation.
It seemed like there was a certain power that extracted a trace of pure energy from the bodies of Yue Yang, Xue Wu Xia, and Princess Qian Qian. Among them, Xue Wu Xia, who possessed ice energy, had her power drawn the most, nearly taking 10% of it away. Princess Qian Qian came in second and Yue Yang’s energy was least absorbed because of his special physique. Even so, it was close to absorbing 1/1000 of his total energy.
“We are at a distance of 6000 kilometers away, yet it could still extract our strength?” Yue Yang was shocked.
“This, I am afraid, has surpassed the ordinary power of the Law!” Princess Qian Qian also felt that it was unfathomable. Extracting her energy was no big deal, but to be able to extract Yue Yang’s energy was shocking— he was an Innate Supreme after all!
“When you get to the destination, you will feel more emotional after reading it,” Xue Wu Xia smiled.
“Let’s go then!” Yue Yang originally wanted to use the Quintet Golden Puppet Mice to explore, but now he felt like it might be a wrong move. Being reluctant to summon the Quintet Golden Puppet Mice, he grasped onto the thin waists of the two women and used a large amount of his energy to teleport them in the direction where Xue Wu Xia was indicating towards.
In this kind of snowfield with almost no barriers to the plains, Yue Yang could cover the 6000 kilometer distance with just ten minutes of teleportation.
Teleporting for more than 600 kilometers per time.
After 60 or 70 teleportations, a majestic mountain with a height of 10,000 meters was in front of Yue Yang’s eyes.
The peak of the mountain was as sharp as a sword piercing the sky, seeming like it was making a crevice form in the sky. The whole mountain was made of ice and snow without a grain of sand, soil, grass or trees. The sky was cold and quiet as there was no trace of wind, whereas the snowy field on the ground produced layers of ripples that were made of heaps of snow waves. The strangest thing was that these snow wave ripples spread out from all around to the iceberg, constantly becoming a part of the iceberg as it increased in size and thickened.
When Yue Yang used his Heaven Eyes Transverse, he scanned with all his strength.
He found that the entire ice and snow world was like this as all of the cold energy was converging on this iceberg. He didn’t know how long it took to fill a mountain full of ice energy, but he guessed that it must have taken at least a few millennia to do so.
Why was there no life?
Because this iceberg will constantly absorb energy from the outside world. Hence, it was impossible for any life to survive here… Ordinary icebergs would not be like this, so there must be ancient runes here that were exerting their power—Xue Wu Xia’s previous judgment was correct. Now, the only problem was how to transform this ancient rune of the Frost Type, which has been around for millions of years, for his own use!
This was the hardest part.
However, if he succeeded in doing so, Xue Wu Xia would easily break through the Innate Supreme Realm and become the second person to break through after Yue Yang!
“Tsk!” Princess Qian Qian lifted the Prison Emperor’s Divine Sword, blessed with the power of the four directions, and slashed at the iceberg with all her strength.
The power of this sword could completely kill a heaven Ranked martial artist in seconds.
The Sword Qi soared.
The powerful slash of the blade directly split the space, as even the sky has drawn an invisible rift.
Under the gaze of Yue Yang and Xue Wu Xia, the Sword Qi of the Prison Emperor’s Divine Sword was brought down heavily onto the iceberg.
Boom!
The entire iceberg seemed to be shaking.
However, it turned out that Princess Qian Qian was discouraged… With such a powerful slash, not a trace of a scar was left behind. With her eyes, she carefully searched on the ice wall of the iceberg and found a small cut that had the thickness of a strand of hair. The scar was still a small scratch and it was slowly recovering! This iceberg was simply the ‘10,000 Years of Profound Ice’ formed from pure energy for millenia. Therefore, it was not an existence that could be shaken by humans!
“If this continues, we will have direct access to the core in another ten thousand years,” Princess Qian Qian felt powerless for the first time, seeing that the iceberg was too strong.
“Brute force definitely won’t work, we have to find a way,” Yue Yang has never been a person who solves problems purely with brute force.
“Perhaps, I can try to sense it from the bottom, but I need your Supreme Will to help,” Xue Wu Xia did not finish speaking before both Yue Yang and Princess Qian Qian strongly opposed. To sense that ancient rune with the will was extremely dangerous. Without caring whether or not it could be sensed, the energy of the ancient runes will regard this ‘sense’ as an attack. Then, it would immediately launch a counterattack, ranging from physical injury to severe annihilation of the soul.
“No, no! Even with my will to help, this is a stupid behavior,” Yue Yang refused, “There must be another way!”
“I’ll just give it a try. If it doesn’t work, we will all go back. It’s the best case scenario to have ancient runes, but I won’t risk it with everyone else’s lives,” Xue Wu Xia smiled at Yue Yang slightly. Yes, she was definitely eager to advance to the Supreme Innate realm, but she definitely didn’t want Yue Yang to take such a risk because of herself.
“If you want to try, I will try!” Yue Yang wouldn’t let her take the risks.
“Both of you calm down, this iceberg will not be going anywhere. We can slowly figure out a way because we have time,” Princess Qian Qian hurriedly persuaded, “If we can’t think of a way, then we’ll have a talk with the Night Empress and Zhi Zun to see if they have some good alternatives or suggestions. The method of sensing is not good indeed— the ancient runes are definitely not that easy to sense. What’s more is that it was now protected by the entire iceberg of 10000 Years of Profound Ice. Sit down, let’s think about it. In fact, why don’t we try something one by one or use World to absorb and fight for energy? It will be stronger than our brute force since it has limitless amounts of energy!”
The last sentence was like a flash of light, directly hitting the depths of Yue Yang’s mind.
Yue Yang trembled and looked at Princess Qian Qian as he yelled, “Wait, you-what did you just say? World? Are you talking about the World?”
Xue Wu Xia found it a little strange— she hadn’t thought about using World to absorb the energy through this method. However, the slow speed is a concern and she was afraid that it would not be effective even after ten thousand years. Yet, why was Yue Yang so excited? Was he going to borrow this method and come up with a suitable countermeasure?
She was as excited as she was speechless.
Her little hand gripped Yue Yang’s arm tightly, while on the other side, Princess Qian Qian stammered and replied, “Ah, I-I seem to be- that’s what I said, right? This method is not very good, either, I guess.It’s too slow, I know. Just now, it was just a sp-spur of the moment kind of statement. Wh-why are you looking at me like that? Did I say something right?”
“It’s so right!” Yue Yang hugged Princess Qian Qian tightly, patting her waist with his hand and kissed her excitedly, “Tigress, taking you along to have an adventure together was the right call. You inspired me, yes, your last sentence! I’m so stupid— I have always had one of the best ways, but I’ve been so useless. Oh wow, I’m such an idiot! It’s such a good plan, yet I have been idling like this. My goodness! If only I’d realised that earlier, things wouldn’t have turned out like this! Hahahaha, I’m lucky that you reminded me, Tigress!”
“I didn’t say anything!” Princess Qian Qian herself felt puzzled.
“Quick, speak up, what is the solution?” Xue Wu Xia couldn’t calm down now because she was already convinced that Yue Yang had really thought of a way to crack it. Besides, this was all because of the unintentional inspiration stated by the rogue Princess Qian Qian.
“This is how the plan works best… Before that, I would like to ask her first. You guys can go into the Grimoire World for a bit, I’ll be back soon!” Yue Yang couldn’t wait to let Xiao Wen Li take care of Xue Wu Xia and Princess Qian Qian. After introducing the Grimoire World, he circled the iceberg at a very fast speed, trying to collect as much information as possible.
Xiao Wen Li came out and nodded to indicate that she was ready.
Yue Yang picked up the little baby, “Come on, let’s go see mom again!”
[TL note]:
At this point there’s more new characters that are emerging so I’m kind of making the glossary instead of referring to it. I’ll try my best to provide them as accurately as I can, so let me know if any of the names seem awkward or don’t flow all that well!
At any rate, enjoy the chapter! Hope you guys have a great day/night ahead of you!

Chapter 906: Sixth Sense
At the Black Hole Seal Space.
After listening to Yue Yang’s description, Fei Wen Li couldn’t help but exploit a wave of surprise that flashed in her eyes, despite trying her best to suppress it and not show it.
Finally, there was a chance to break free of this Black Hole Seal Space and see the sun again… Maybe this process will take some time.
It might not be able to come true in a day.
But she could finally see a flashing shimmer of hope!
For a long time, she didn’t speak either—she didn’t praise Yue Yang for this bold and amazing idea, nor did she express her gratitude through countless words of thanks. This was because she knew that both of them were one soul. No matter how moved she was, she didn’t need to use words to express it. In her heart, he could sense his true feelings, and he could fully understand her as well.
Empress Fei Wen Li opened her arms and hugged Yue Yang tightly.
Even Xiao Wen Li was affected by the emotional atmosphere as she reached out to hug Empress Fei Wen Li and Yue Yang, her small face happily leaned against their own. This was the first time that she had truly expressed a comfortable smile in this dark Black Hole Seal Space.
“If I was stronger, I wouldn’t need to use other’s powers to save you,” Yue Yang kissed fei Wen Li’s cheek apologetically. On her face, tears were streaming down, but the Black Hole Seal Space quickly absorbed it as the water droplets turned into nothingness and dissipated. As if to kiss away the remaining tears, Yue Yang kissed all the psychological shadows that resulted from the Empress Fei Wen Li being sealed… Actually, he had most hoped to rescue this conquering queen through his own power. But because he was unable to do so now, he had to rely on other sources of powers to help her.
“What a stupid thing to say—one day, you will surpass me for sure; it’s just a matter of time!” Empress Fei Wen Li comforted Yue Yang in turn, stroking Yue Yang’s tall nose with her white porcelain-white fingers. The slightly warm cherry lips of hers left a mark on his lips.
“Do you have any good suggestions?” Just after Yue Yang asked, he suddenly felt Xiao Wen Li tugging him downwards, anticipating with her little face tilted upwards.
He quickly bowed his head knowingly and kissed the child on the forehead.
To show that he was fair and would not favor one over the other.
Xiao Wen Li happily rewarded him with two resounding kisses. Only in front of Fei Wen Li would she opt to behave like a child with Yue Yang. To the outside world, she was the cold and ruthless killer, Xiao Wen Li.
Empress Fei Wen Li smiled as soon as she saw it,”You are going to spoil her!” However, she was happy to see this kind of warmth between them and even joined in as she pressed soft, butterfly kisses onto Xiao Wen Li’s brows and forehead, making the girl become shy before she stopped. After the small commotion, she once again resumed the momentum of The Conqueror Queen as she thought about Yue Yang’s questions, “If the situation is really as optimistic as you said, then, I think I am not in such a hurry to go out.”
When Yue Yang heard this, he was stunned, “What?”
Xiao Wen Li was also in a slight panic. Her little hand desperately pulled onto Fei Wen Li, hoping that she would change her mind.
Empress Fei Wen Li laughed, “I am trapped in this Black Hole Seal Space and I have been through enough suffering to know that it would be impossible for me to leave that easily! Maybe you can understand my point of view a little. Yes, that’s what I think— I want this Black Hole Seal Space to become my world! To be completely under the control of my will! Here, it used to be my prison; but if I have to resort to external forces to escape from here, it wouldn’t be relying on my skills, then…I am Fei Wen Li, the Queen of Conquest who is determined to conquer the entire Heaven Realm. If I leave like this, it means that this level will be my biggest and highest peak of my life. No, I will never be satisfied to be a Queen of Conquest; I want to be like you and become a higher being! I hope that I can be with you in the future, where we can climb a higher realm together, explore the limits of Divine Supremacy and explore the limits of martial arts. I hope that, like you, I can create the entire world and control everything at the same time one day!”
“This Black Hole Seal Space is my starting point. If I can’t even change it, then I won’t think about anything else. Escaping is no longer my biggest goal!” Fei Wen Li not only recovered her former aura, her beliefs and ideals have become more lofty because of Yue Yang’s thought resonance.
“I understand, but…” Yue Yang certainly understood Empress Fei Wen Lii’s ambition, but still, he hoped that she would go out soon.
“Even if my attempt fails this time, with your entry, I believe it will soon save me,” Fei Wen Li smiled with confidence.
“Okay, you persuaded me,” Yue Yang was moved by Empress Fei Wen Li’s bold vision. She really deserved to bear the identity of the Queen of Conquerors; her thoughts were even more braver and more daring than his!
“You would do the same if the one stuck in here was you as both of us have a fearlessness factor in our blood. With your support, well, I decided that I’m going to go all out. I will not lose to this Black Hole Seal Space again! This cage will definitely become a world of ice and snow that is under my control— it will be my paradise and my home!” Empress Fei Wen Li’s eyes flashed with an unshakable resolve of light as she clenched her fist with one hand. Her oath was only heard by Yue Yang and Xiao Wen Li.
10,000 years ago, on the day she set foot into the Heaven Realm, she too, had swore an indestructible oath.
After that vow was issued.
She became the Conqueror Queen that was feared by the entire Heaven Realm.
In front of the iceberg.
When Yue Yang left the Black Hole Seal Space and returned to the outside world, he summoned Princess Qian Qian and Xue Wu Xia from the Grimoire World and told them everything.
“So that’s how everything came to be!” Xue Wu Xia and Princess Qian Qian suddenly realized.
“What do you two have to add?” Yue Yang asked the two women for their opinions again. Their delicate supplements were the basis for the perfect implementation of the plan.
“One, if you guide the energy of the iceberg into the Black Hole Seal Space, would there be any sort of danger directed towards yourself?” Xue Wu Xia felt that if this action would pose a risk for Yue Yang, then she wouldn’t agree to it no matter how precious the ancient runes in the iceberg were. Besides, she believed that Empress Fei Wen Li would not pass. Empress Fei Wen Li was trapped inside and she didn’t know anything about the outside world, so she had to ask for everyone’s sake. After Yue Yang nodded seriously and confirmed that there was no danger, Xue Wu Xia let out a sigh of relief and asked the second question, “Second, are you working alone on this, or do you need us to cooperate with you?”
“It’s enough to have the two of you, I don’t want too many people to know about this,” Yue Yang didn’t want to disturb the people in the Soaring Dragon Continent. He didn’t even want Si-niang to worry about him either.
“Third, according to the estimated time, if it takes too long, I would suggest putting it down temporarily,” Xue Wuxia looked at Yue Yang.
“I can’t predict this, because I can’t imagine what the rate of absorption in the Black Hole Seal Space is like. It could take a second or it could take a year— I can’t judge this,” Yue Yang shook his head. For this prediction, he couldn’t offer a standard answer.
“Let me try…” Princess Qian Qian, who was silent on the side, took the initiative.
With the Six Records, it wasn’t only her features that were heightened, she also possessed the strongest sixth sense among the women of the world.
Although she seldom used it, especially since she practically never used her sixth senses on Yue Yang, she was more willing to be a glaring Tigress towards him, but it didn’t mean that her sixth senses had been weakened. On the contrary, under the World Tree, for someone who got a glimpse of the Divine Realm in the spiritual sublimation of cultivation together with Yue Yang, the biggest increase of her powers were her sixth senses.
With the absence of a clue, her intuition and her sixth senses were even more accurate than anything else.
Today, this is the first time that she has grandly sensed Yue Yang.
In order to increase her power, Princess Qian Qian kissed Yue Yang like there was no tomorrow, taking advantage of his energy and soul blending realm to improve to carry out the strongest premonition.
Their Linked Heart Knot was like a Sword Qi.
Soaring in its element.
All kinds of mysterious patterns were woven in a beautiful and endless way. When Princess Qian Qian opened her eyes and withdrew from her sixth senses, she did not speak and stayed still for a few seconds.
“Tigress, what’s the matter with you?” Yue Yang was shocked. When she had a premonition in her mind, she would not allow herself to share it with the others. On the contrary, she was trying to shoulder it alone. Could this incident cause any harm to her? This seems unlikely, right?
“Ah, I’m okay. I feel that the iceberg will crack and Sister Xue will definitely benefit from it. Things will exceed our imagination, but it seems like I’m going to cry… Is it excitement? Well, forget it; we are not in danger, so it must be something good!” Princess Qian Qian told the truth, not hiding anything from Yue Yang and Xue Wu Xia. The two looked at each other and were puzzled—what did the iceberg cracking and the mission being successful beyond imagination have anything to do with her crying? Besides, Qian Qian was very strong; she seems to seldom cry, right?
“Let’s take a break first. When you feel better, we’ll just try to feel it again,” Yue Yang felt sorry for this Tigress. He was feeling a bit apologetic towards her, but ultimately, he decided to handle things carefully.
Anyway, this matter can’t be handled in a hurry, so it’s better to let it go first.
Perhaps after the rest, there will be more and clearer feelings!
Xue Wu Xia also opened her own Book of Truth, but she didn’t get anything from it. It seems that she needed Qian Qian’s sixth sense to have a premonition that is above all else!
Facing the Wan Ren Iceberg, Yue Yang, Xue Wu Xia and Princess Qian Qian forcefully suppressed their excitement. Under its feet, they set up a small tent and laid side by side with their adjacent hands holding onto each other. The energy was quietly communicated and at the same time, it was quietly sensed, hoping that when the aura appeared again, so it could be successfully captured.
It wasn’t until the darkening night that Yue Yang was the first to break free from that kind of induction.
The young slave of the Grimoire World had prepared dinner and hot water for Yue Yang and the two mistresses.
She couldn’t help Yue Yang in the battle, but in life, she took care of him meticulously, trying not to let him be distracted in these aspects. After returning to the Grimoire World, Yue Yang put aside all his previous worries. Xue Wu Xia and Princess Qian Qian also nodded to him, fully supporting his next plan.
The three had a feast before they took another comfortable hot bath.
The mood and physical condition have been adjusted to the most optimal.
The two women looked at each other and smiled behind Yue Yang, one by one, catching up to his big hand.
It might be a difficult project to guide the energy of this Ice World into the Black Hole Seal Space. However, they were determined to help him complete it. No matter how the sixth sense felt like, they would go all out and cooperate with him to accomplish this unprecedented feat! As for ancient runes, that was no longer the first goal.
“It must be successful!” Yue Yang sensed the feelings of the two women as he raised his hands high. He cheered for the both of them, also cheering for himself at the same time.
“Definitely!” The two women were both emotional, nodding firmly as they echoed affirmatives in unison.
This was the first time Yue Yang had challenged the Black Hole Space Seal…what will happen?
[TL note]:
