Free Web NovelChapter 1624: Chapter 1251: Snow Peak Temple, Half in Heaven, Half in the Realm of the Snow God
The thick white snow hung heavily between the continuous mountain range.
A row of pine trees like mountain guardians were dressed in white armor. Occasionally, a few palm-sized snowflakes would fall silently onto the snow beneath.
This was a renowned mountain range in the Extreme North of the Ancient Qin State, known as the Snow God Mountain Range.
The Snow God Mountain Range stretched beautifully from the northeast to the southwest, with the sides visibly recessed while a peak rose dramatically in the middle, standing prominently among the surrounding mountains, like an unyielding Snow God overlooking below, veiled by white clouds, surveying the mountains, making all others seem small. freēwēbηovel.c૦m
That is the Snow God Peak.
The Snow God Peak got its name from its sheer towering height reaching into the clouds and its mysterious reputation.
Snow Peak Temple, half in the heavens, half on the snow.
The mountains are deep and eerie, high and mystical.
The folk legends surrounding this peak are countless, each carrying a mythical color. To those within a thousand miles, the Snow God Peak truly is like a divine entity. Anyone who underestimates it and rashly attempts to conquer it, ends up missing.
Even the many heroes or demons of the Martial World, or the unchecked powers of the Martial World who try to occupy this peak as a base for power, end in tragedy. Either they disappear not long after, or they go mad, become foolish, or die.
From a long time ago, the Snow God Peak deep within this mountain range became a forbidden zone. Only the outskirts of the mountain were occasionally visited by mountain villagers for hunting or herb gathering, and without exception, these villagers all believed in the "Snow God," worshiping the Snow God Peak as if it were a deity, hoping thus to obtain peace and protection.
Yet who would know, the mysterious and god-like Snow God Peak was occupied as headquarters by an extremely powerful force over six hundred years ago. Over the years, any Martial World people or powers that ventured here met with misfortune, simply because they inadvertently "crossed the line."
But because this force had not been active in the "open" Martial World for over six hundred years, except for a few top local powers who were aware, the ordinary Martial World people and powers had no idea that deep within the Great Snow Mountain, a mighty beast lay in slumber.
On this day——
Whistling——
Whistling——
The white, vast snow, like a plume of smoke, whistled sharply as it rolled between the rugged mountains, blowing towards the depths of the mountains like the wind.
Several mountain villagers, gathering herbs on a slope, saw the rolling snowstorm moving into the deep mountains from afar, murmuring about how strange it was for winds to rise at low altitudes today. It seemed they should go home early and hold their wife close by the stove, quickly finishing their work, they prayed to the Snow God Mountain before hastily descending the mountain.
In these mountain valleys, falling cliffs sink deeper and deeper, making it difficult for travelers to move forward. Only the wind could swiftly pass, only snow could somersault.
But who would have guessed, within that peculiar snowstorm was wrapped a person.
The Feng Family Patriarch was wrapped inside the snowstorm, speeding forward, moving along the rugged paths as if on flat ground, moving so fast that she seemed like a gust of wind carrying snowflakes gone in a flash, showcasing her extraordinary Qinggong.
Such Qinggong could use the snowstorm to conceal her figure, it was truly unique. Yet in the eyes of people, she was but "a guest hard-pressed for wine, an old man searching tirelessly for plum," just another worker.
Since receiving instructions from Jiang Dali three days ago, she had been tracking the blood of the Shi Feng using the Phoenix Blood all the way to this Extreme North region.
Only half a day ago, using the ’Phoenix Blood Secret Technique’ from her clan, she confirmed that the strongest blood sensation pointed toward the Snow God Peak.
Being from the Ancient Qin, she had heard of the mysterious legends surrounding the Snow God Peak.
Such a mysterious place might indeed be related to the powerful Shi Feng of that year, the deep-seated blood feud made her impatience impossible to contain. After quickly relaying the information back to her clan and the Black Wind Village Chief as agreed, she came to the Snow God Mountain Range alone, to further investigate the situation.
She believed this initial exploration would simply confirm judgments more carefully, perhaps a bit risky, but with her unparalleled Qinggong she could remain unnoticed, silently assessing the surrounding Snow God Mountain.
But as she ventured deeper, the Feng Family Patriarch suddenly felt a nameless trepidation. Her mind bizarrely envisioned herself turning into an ice sculpture, emanating chilling cold air, a terrible sight quickly followed by the ice sculpture shattering. Amidst the breakdown, she vaguely saw the shards transforming into a gigantic ice face.
That ice face flashed momentarily without reason.
Yet it startled her enough to halt immediately, her feet slightly sunk into the snow due to momentary fright, making a subtle "creak" sound.
As an expert in the Heavenly Human Realm, she certainly knew what the sudden perception in her mind signified, representing a danger premonition, forewarning her of extremely terrifying threats under the impulse of death, granting her inspiration in advance.
Such state was incredibly rare, even more so than Sudden Enlightenment in Martial Arts, because missing such premonition might mean losing one’s life.
"That was..."
