Lord of All Realms

Chapter 1502: Ice Bone

With the activation of his Life Purification, drops of new blood essence were condensed.

He could store 300 drops of blood essence when his bloodline had been at the eighth grade.

Once the number had reached that limit, no new blood essence could be condensed even if there had been a copious amount of flesh aura.

When his bloodline reached the ninth grade and his drops of blood essence were improved, the total number of drops he could hold had a breakthrough as well.

One thousand drops!

After his bloodline reached the ninth grade, the number of drops of blood essence that his heart could hold went from three hundred drops to one thousand.

Not only that, but he felt every drop of blood essence that had been condensed after he had reached the ninth grade contained more surging power, and purer quintessence.

FIZZ! FIZZ!

Crimson blood light sputtered from his skin and pores.

His giant body was still slowly shrinking.

Originally, after he activated his bloodline talents and used Life Blend to control the Star Behemoth bone, his height could reach almost ten thousand meters.

Now, however, as Life Purification cleansed his veins and strengthened his bones, his towering body that was nearly ten thousand meters tall shrank to about nine thousand meters.

In a daze, he had an idea as he continued using his Life Purification. “Does nine thousand meters correspond to a ninth-grade bloodline?”

The contaminated flesh aura of the strong creatures that had been dead in the desolated starry river for thousands of years quietly converged.

Light green smoke rose and faded away as toxins were decomposed.

Purplish-red light surged as the dregs of the Demons’ flesh aura in the starry river were crushed to pieces.

Hard, dark-brown particles were blown to powder as strands of brown flesh aura flew into his body.

His giant body, which had shrunk from nearly ten thousand meters to nine thousand meters, slowly shrank again to about eight thousand meters before continuing to shrink.

Even he was flabbergasted.

ZZZZZLA!

Every now and then, fine lightning flashed across his exposed neck and forehead.

Qi warriors from other domains, who cultivated cold power and had reached the Saint domain, looked up at Nie Tian’s shrinking body from time to time with shocked expressions.

The cold voice of Mu Biqiong, the Holy Daughter of the Bliss Mountain Sect, suddenly echoed out. “Is he reinforcing his fleshly body?”

Yin Yanan, sitting quietly in a forest of icicles, suddenly opened her eyes, gave her a surprised look, and asked, “Why are you here?”

The most bustling place in the Mortal World now should be the Domain of Heaven Span. Many had gone there to watch Dong Li help the black tortoise break through to the tenth grade.

The fact that Mu Biqiong suddenly showed up here while many so-called advanced Qi warriors had gone there made Yin Yanan very confused.

“I...” Mu Biqiong, who was still wearing a veil, showing only her matchlessly beautiful eyebrows, stuttered. A touch of panic flashed in her beautiful deep eyes. “The fate of all of us is closely related to Nie Tian. He is the key to our future and our lives. So the Bliss Mountain Sect asked me to keep an eye on him so that I can report everything.”

“Bliss Mountain Sect?” Yin Yanan said, pursing her lips. “Don’t use your sect as an excuse! You’ve merged so well with the coexisting flowers and have a high cultivation base. Who else in the Bliss Mountain Sect can command you now?”

Mu Biqiong said calmly, “I am willing to do things for my sect.”

“I don’t think so,” Yin Yanan retorted with a sneer, “It’s said that your sect is trying to marry you to Huang Jinnan of the Five Elements Sect. Huang Jinnan is the divine son of the metal element sect, and one of Nie Tian’s best friends. He has a very promising future.

“Originally, the Five Elements Sect didn’t take you seriously, but your coexisting flowers turned out to be so amazing that they became interested, and wanted to see what they could do before they made their decision. Is it because it upset you to meet people from the Five Elements Sect in the Domain of Heaven Span that you came here?”

“How do you know that?” asked Mu Biqiong.

Yin Yanan raised the end of her eyebrow. “Of course I know that. I also know...”

She smiled slyly and looked up at Nie Tian. “Is it because you want to see him that you want to come here for relaxation? I remember he lifted your veil when you were on the Shatter Battlefield. I also remember you...”

“Shut up!” Mu Biqiong shouted angrily.

Yin Yanan sighed, “You and I fought for years, but we have no conflicts of interest now, after both my Beast-controlling Sect and your Bliss Mountain Sect chose to attach themselves to him. In fact, I know what you’re thinking. You’ve seen higher mountains and better scenery, so of course you don’t want to settle for lower mountains.

“Huang Jinnan is a divine son, but compared to him, he is really inferior.”

Mu Biqiong lowered her head in silence.

“You can refuse the marriage,” Yin Yanan added. “You’re very strong. If you don’t want to marry him, no one in the Bliss Mountain Sect will dare to force you. Besides, there’s no one in the Five Elements Sect who would dare to do something to his subordinates.”

Hearing this, Mu Biqiong’s eyes lit up, as if she had found an answer.

“You were right,” Yin Yanan continued. “He’s reinforcing his body in a whole new way. His body seems to have shrunk considerably, but the flesh aura in him has become purer. He’s getting stronger, and his body is probably no weaker than that of any early tenth grade Demon or Bonebrute grand monarch.”

Mu Biqiong nodded. “The coexisting flowers in my body also feel that way.”

“What a pity.” Yin Yanan sighed, shaking her head and no longer speaking.

A few days later.

Yin Yanan’s Frost Blood Python suddenly shivered, and hurried to pass a soul message to her.

“An extremely frigid aura?” she screamed, subconsciously releasing her soul awareness to perceive her surroundings.

Then she noticed that the Saint domain Qi warriors who were meditating on the profound meanings of cold power that You Qimiao had left behind rose to their feet one by one.

WHOOSH!

A giant Bonebrute flew roaring like an icy mountain, releasing frigid currents as he did.

Those frigid currents spread out and turned into ice storms as they consciously absorbed the debris of shattered ice crystals that You Qimiao had left behind.

Almost none of the Qi warriors present had seen this legendary grand monarch before.

However, the instant he appeared, they felt his chill and cold aura, and then blurted out his name. “Grand Monarch Ice Bones!”

Grand Monarch Ice Bones had been defeated in his battle with Grand Monarch Crystal Bones, the chief of the Bonebrutes. He was rumored to have died, but in fact, he had been lurking in the Domain of Frigid Depths.

Even Chu Rui of the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace had been suppressed by his cold power, and nearly unable to walk out of the domain.

“What, what is he doing here?” someone asked.

Everyone grew very nervous and dared not continue comprehending the profound meanings of cold power. They hurried to display their cold domains and gather around, ready for battle.

Yin Yanan and Mu Biqiong also stared vigilantly at the unexpected guest.

“Nie Tian,” Grand Monarch Ice Bones said.
