Soul Emperor Martial God

In front, Xiao Yi, who always had his eyes closed, opened them at this moment.

With a cold gaze, he looked straight ahead at the distance of a thousand miles.

There, a wholly snow-white sharp sword stood.

It was the Ice Saint’s sword, the Ice White Ghost Slayer.

Of course, it wasn’t a real sword, just a symbol of the Sword Dao.

Xiao Yi squinted his eyes, and the next second, closed them again.

His figure moved forward again.

The entire Netherworld Road, in fact, is extremely long.

His own Sword Dao journey is far less lengthy than this Netherworld Martial Path.

Although the two overlap, allowing Xiao Yi to continue forward with closed eyes.

But, in comparison, the whole Netherworld Road ahead is still uncertain, filled with the unknown.

And every step Xiao Yi takes, these unknowns decrease by a fraction.

The fog ahead on this Netherworld Martial Path became a bit clearer.

Xiao Yi kept moving forward, and the Netherworld Road became increasingly luminous.

Step...step...step...step...

Steady and firm footsteps, continue to move forward.

This has already surpassed the distance of the Ice Venerable back then.

On the Netherworld Road, the aura of wind and snow, along with the eerie aura of the Netherworld, carrying extremely terrifying allure and devouring power.

Heaven knows how Xiao Yi managed to persist and keep moving forward.

Merely, Xiao Yi’s speed is steadily and orderly accelerating.

The sound of footsteps, which were sparse at first, gradually became dense.

It was now a fast-paced walk.

Two hours passed.

That kind of speed was like a gust of wind.

After another two hours.

The speed was now consistent with the fierce wind and snow around.

And the distance Xiao Yi progressed was from one hundred miles, to two hundred miles, three hundred miles, four hundred miles...

Behind.

The Ice Venerable’s Spiritual Consciousness widened its eyes, watching Xiao Yi continuously move forward without rest, already looking astonished.

"How on earth did this kid do it?"

"Such terrifying resolve, his Dao Heart is so firm that even the Netherworld’s wind and snow can’t sway it?"

"Terrifying, truly terrifying."

"If I’m not mistaken, the path of Martial Arts of this child must be one he walked step by step, solid and immensely heavy."

As time gradually passed.

Half a day later.

Xiao Yi, who had been moving rapidly, stopped once again.

Beside him, a snow-white sword was stuck in the snow.

Indeed, this was already a thousand-mile distance.

It was precisely the place the Ice White Ghost Slayer was planted.

Meaning, at this moment, in terms of the Ice Netherworld Dao, Xiao Yi is already comparable to the legendary Senior Ice Saint.

"The Ice Netherworld Dao, vast indeed." Xiao Yi opened his eyes and nodded.

His gaze rested on the snow-white sword beside him.

Slowly stretching out his hand, he reached for the sword hilt.

When the pale hand of Xiao Yi grasped the sword hilt.

Clang...

The entire snow-white sword began to resonate fiercely.

Clearly, this sword does not belong to Xiao Yi, nor does it wish to be grasped by him.

Xiao Yi squinted slightly, "There is not a sword in this world that I cannot lift."

This is the pride of a Sword Cultivator.

"Get up." Xiao Yi scolded lightly, forcibly lifting his hand.

The snow-white sword was abruptly pulled from the snow.

Clang...

In that instant, a fierce and resounding clang.

The snow-white light illuminated all around.

"Good sword." Xiao Yi smiled slightly.

With the sword in hand, the clanging abruptly ceased, and it no longer struggled.

This signifies that the sword recognized Xiao Yi, acknowledging Xiao Yi’s lifting of it.

"Unfortunately, you do not suit me." Xiao Yi chuckled, shaking his arm, causing the sword to clang continuously again.

Xiao Yi released his grip, inserting the snow-white sword back into the snow.

He had only drawn the sword to see the aura of the legendary Senior Ice Saint, to feel what it was like when the Senior Ice Saint walked this Wind Snow Netherworld Road back then.

The sword is extraordinarily proud.

When Senior Ice Saint traversed this road, it must have been arrogantly forward like a sharp sword, piercing straight through this Netherworld Road.

Unfortunately, the Netherworld Road, in the end, is immeasurably long.

The sword of Senior Ice Saint was sharp and mighty enough, yet it could never easily reach the end of this Netherworld Road.

"Let me try." Xiao Yi chuckled, his eyes full of battle intent.

Whoosh... his figure moved forward again.

Behind.

"Impressive." The Ice Venerable’s Spiritual Consciousness nodded repeatedly, "Directly matched with Senior Ice Saint."

"Even picked up the Sword Dao symbol; in terms of the Ice Netherworld Dao alone, this kid is already the first in this era."

"Hmm? Still not stopping, still going?"

The Ice Venerable’s Spiritual Consciousness was taken aback once more.

But obviously, he was also helpless, that distance was a level he couldn’t approach even in life, let alone now in a spiritual state?

"Kid, you better not let anything happen to you." The Ice Venerable’s Spiritual Consciousness muttered to itself.

In front.

Xiao Yi continued to walk straight.

But, his eyes were no longer closed.

Yes, at this moment, Xiao Yi was walking forward with eyes open.

No longer relying on his Sword Dao to guide him.

The reason is simple.

He finally understood the sense and meaning of Sword Dao from a year and a half ago.

Back then, when Senior Swordswoman first appeared and delivered a slash, the sense of Sword Dao seemed to tell everyone that beneath the Netherworld was an endless wind and snow.

Later, Senior Swordswoman condensed Sword Dao aura in front once more.

At that time, the feeling was as if no one knew where the end of the wind and snow was, but that slash carried a hint of flame.

That illusion of flame, Xiao Yi still remembers.

That sense of Sword Dao seemed like at the end of the wind and snow was a cold flame.

At that time, Xiao Yi was greatly puzzled.

And now, Xiao Yi finally understood.

Currently, looking far ahead, what he continuously sees is the flame at the end.

Yes, flame.

The flame emitting a blue light, also carrying a hint of cold white radiance.

It was the Ice Netherworld Ghost Fire.

The legendary Ice Netherworld Ghost Fire, its body, is precisely at the end of this Wind Snow Netherworld Road.

Therefore, Xiao Yi no longer needs to proceed with closed eyes.

The flame at the end far ahead is his best guiding light.

As Xiao Yi walked on, he also frowned.

At this distance, the biting feeling of the wind and snow aura, combined with the Netherworld aura, was still intensifying, becoming more and more severe.

But this should not be the biggest obstacle.

After all, with a guiding presence ahead, a Martial Artist need not wander with closed eyes, and with clear eyes, the resistance from mind and spirit itself becomes exceedingly strong.

But, what was the obstacle that even a mighty figure like Senior Ice Saint couldn’t surpass the thousand-mile mark?

As Xiao Yi looked on now, the distance to the end was at least nearly ten thousand miles away.

Meaning, reaching the Netherworld Road’s end was something even Senior Ice Saint couldn’t do by a wide margin.

What else lies on the path ahead?

Xiao Yi continued forward, his brows suddenly furrowing tighter.

He felt that his body was becoming increasingly cold.

The light of the flame at the far end was incredibly bright, its radiance even penetrating the layers of wind and snow.

Even this tempestuous world of wind and snow could not block the radiance of a powerful flame.

But the light of this flame brought not a trace of warmth.

The flame pierced through the wind and snow but transmitted no warmth at all.

If the obstacle within a thousand miles was the assaulting aura of that terrifying wind and snow, mingling with the Netherworld aura, besieging the mind, shaking the Dao Heart, devouring invisibly.

Then beyond a thousand miles, it’s purely icy cold, that chilling cold incomparable in intensity to before.

Behind.

The Ice Venerable’s Spiritual Consciousness frowned deeply, "The further you go on the Netherworld Road, the colder it gets."

"At the end, there is only sheer extreme cold, freezing everything."

"Kid, what will you use to keep going?"

...

Second update.
