Realms In The Firmament

However, the Ice Flame was a weird thing. It was very weird and rare. Erhuo only gave Ye Xiao a name, but no further explanation. Apparently, Erhuo was busy, and it didn’t really care much about the flame. Ye Xiao was the ignorant one, so he decided to wait. When Erhuo finished what it was busy doing, there was time to do more explanation.

Nothing could stop Ye Xiao in the North of North Sky now.

The North of North Sky was small.

Ye Xiao spread out his spiritual mind, and it easily covered the entire area. He searched thoroughly but found nothing.

There were no lives in this place. Ye Xiao understood why. Even he couldn’t handle the cold qi in this place… However, Master Bai told him Jun Yinglian was here. Why could he find her?

“What’s wrong?” Ye Xiao frowned. “Was it a lie? Did I misunderstand?”

Ye Xiao flew up to the sky and flew around in the snow. He still got nothing. If he moved forward, it was the chaotic area!

It was called the Edge of Sky!

That was truly where the sky ended!

Ye Xiao frowned and tried to think of anything he missed. He remembered that when he first arrived in the Human Realm Upon Heavens, he also got lost in a special place!

It rang a bell. He believed Master Bai was telling the truth. He was sure there must be a mysterious place hidden in the North of North Sky.

He just had to figure out a way to get into that place.

There was one problem though. If there was such a mysterious place, how did Jun Yinglian get in?

Ye Xiao was lost, staring at the red monument.

He tried to rush into the chaos outside the sky, but he failed.

“How do I get in?”

“There must be a hidden space.”

“The problem is… How do I get in? And how do I get out afterward?”

“Master Bai wouldn’t lie to me. He didn’t do this to help, but he wouldn’t lie to me. Maybe he happens to want me to be here!”

“I need to get into that place and find Yinglian. I need to finish this soon.”

“How?”

Ye Xiao took a deep breath. He recollected the details of the days he spent on the ancient battlefield. However, he couldn’t figure out anything useful. It seemed there was a connection, but he just couldn’t find it. Even so, he was still calm and patient.

“There must be a way!”

Ye Xiao nervously thought.

His hand gently touched the red monument.

After that, he froze!

“The stone monument!”

Ye Xiao was suddenly enlightened.

“That’s right! The monument is the key! This monument is a puzzle!”

“It stays in this place for tens of thousands of years.”

“The North of North Sky has been snowing forever. The monument always stays here. It is always red. There is no snowflake on it!”

“It has to be special!”

“There must be a reason.”

“I have seen several monuments that brought me special experience. On the Mountain of All Medicines, in the area where the Ji Clan and Ce Clan are located… Maybe the stone monument is my lucky item!”

“This monument could be the key to the special space!”

Ye Xiao thought for a while and slightly pushed the monument. However, even if he pushed it in full power, the monument was still here. Nothing happened.

Ye Xiao could easily break down a mountain with one hand after the great improvement. He could even crumb a piece of the toughest iron with one hand!

The monument was fine. Nothing happened.

That was unusual. It was unbelievable!

Ye Xiao drew back the hand and touched the fingers.

The monument didn’t push him back in any way. It just felt the touch. It touched just like a stone…

It was unimaginably tough…

Ye Xiao humphed and waved his hand. A sword appeared in his hand.

It was not the Monarch’s Sword or the Stars Sword. He didn’t think it was necessary to use the divine weapons so soon. After all, he just wanted to do some tests. If he could break the monument with a normal sword, that was it. Besides, he didn’t know how hard the monument was. What if it cracked his good swords?

The normal sword wasn’t ordinary though. He made the sword earlier with many special metals, which was better than most of the weapons in the Monarch’s Hall!

The sword blade was broad. Ye Xiao didn’t hesitate. He poured sixty percent of energy into the sword and slashed on the monument.

– Puff! –

The sound was weird. It wasn’t the sound of metal clunk. It was like the sound of a big hammer hitting on a rotting wood.

After that, the sword was bounced back high. The blade was cracked. If he slashed harder, the sword would be broken into halves.

The moment was still fine.

There wasn’t even a notch on it.

Ye Xiao stared at the monument and slashed again.

– Dang! – The sword broke into two pieces.

The monument was still fine.

The second slash was powerful. Ye Xiao was sure it could cut a ten thousand high mountain into halves.

However, the monument didn’t even bear a notch after the two slashes.

What kind of stone could be so tough?

Ye Xiao waved his hand again, and this time, he was holding a huge hammer. The hammer was in several colors, which was definitely made of some special metals. Without hesitation, he waved the hammer down!
