Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven

The ice dragon vein in the Northern Frontier Icefield creates a unique climate suitable for those who cultivate ice-based techniques.

If Ice Heart Pavilion and Ice Cloud Tower relocate to the Azure Province of the Dawn Dynasty, they won't find an environment like the Northern Frontier Icefield.

However, Jun Wuxie isn't worried because he possesses nine top-tier dragon veins of the highest quality, something that even a universe like the Upper Realm, following the laws of heaven and earth, can't naturally produce at a higher grade.

Generally, dragon veins, aside from rare and special types like the ice dragon vein, are mostly without attributes. The sacred spiritual energy they generate can be used by anyone practicing any technique.

However, this doesn't provide the best effect for those who cultivate techniques with specific attributes.

Top-tier dragon veins differ from others not only in grade but also in special effects. Under certain conditions, they can change attributes according to needs, meaning they can generate ice-attribute energy.

Ice Heart Pavilion possesses a sacred ice object. When the time comes, it can be taken and placed beneath the imperial land. By nurturing the sacred ice object with the dragon vein, the dragon vein's attribute can be transformed, creating an excellent ice and snow environment.

"In this Upper Realm, I'm afraid only Wuxie, you, could be so confident..."

Mu Ciyin was very moved, looking at her personal disciple, her heart filled with joy and satisfaction.

Before meeting Jun Wuxie, she never dared to imagine that she would have such a talented and unparalleled disciple in her life.

This kind of happiness, satisfaction, and joy is indescribable; no words can express her feelings.

She knew his potential and understood his character, so she was willing to entrust the entire Ice Heart Pavilion to him without hesitation.

Although this young man was her disciple, she often felt that he was remarkable, tall and majestic in her heart.

This is a person who once extinguished darkness in the Lower Realm, quelled the apocalyptic torrent, and will also resist darkness in the Upper Realm!

Since ancient times, he has accomplished what no one else could, and he did it in this era of prophecy, the most brilliant yet filled with darkness and despair!

......

Ice Heart Pavilion is located in a vast, endless range of icy mountains.

Within this mountain range, countless icy peaks overlap.

In the central region of the mountain range, ice mist swirls, appearing from a distance like shimmering ice-blue clouds in the sunlight.

Patches of ice-covered palaces and halls stand atop those icy peaks, with halls and pavilions also located in the mountain recesses between the peaks.

Surrounded by these icy peaks and palaces, there is a vast ice lake. The lake water has frozen into thick Xuan ice, with a thin mist of ice swirling above the surface.

Ice Heart Pavilion is surrounded by a sect-protecting formation. Only a long, narrow ice staircase leads into the pavilion. At the entrance stands a monument carved from non-melting Xuan ice, shimmering with ice-blue light, a thousand feet tall!

Engraved on the Xuan ice monument are several graceful yet majestic ancient characters – Ice Heart Pavilion.

The strokes and lines of these three characters appear very gentle, but upon closer inspection, one can feel the terrifying sword intent contained within each stroke, as if a blizzard is roaring, impacting one's mind and causing one to feel a chill that penetrates to the bones.

Jun Wuxie stared at those three characters for a long time, unable to help but exclaim, "Ciyin Shizun's calligraphy is truly beautiful, containing both beauty and majesty. These two seemingly contradictory feelings are so perfectly integrated under Shizun's brush."

Saying this, he turned to look at Mu Ciyin, smiling as he said, "Just like Ciyin Shizun, perfect."

"You only know how to make your teacher happy."

Mu Ciyin's expression and voice remained cool and aloof, but her heart was very pleased.

Which woman doesn't like to hear praise, especially when it comes from her beloved disciple, the person she cares about most in this life? To have such a perfect impression in his heart, she is of course incomparably happy and proud.

"This disciple's words are from the bottom of my heart."

Jun Wuxie spoke these words sincerely, not deliberately praising her. In his eyes, Mu Ciyin was almost flawless, whether in appearance or personality.

Perhaps in the eyes of others, she is only perfect in appearance, her personality too cold, but he sees it differently, because he has never felt that sense of rejection from her coldness. On the contrary, she feels very kind and comfortable.

"Alright, stop being glib. Don't you want to see Xuelan and the others soon? And your child, Xiao Qi'an."

Mu Ciyin took his hand and walked towards the sect.

"Pavilion Master has returned, greetings Pavilion Master!"

The people guarding the mountain gate saw Mu Ciyin from afar and hurried forward to greet her.

These were two graceful women, their ages indistinguishable. Judging from their appearance alone, they were only eighteen or nineteen years old, but in fact, they were definitely older, after all, they were not disciples of this generation, as they were both in the late stage of the Holy Emperor Realm.

The women of Ice Heart Pavilion are naturally beautiful. They are all descendants of Mu Ciyin's essence blood from her previous life, generation after generation. Any one of them would be a national treasure.

Due to their cultivation of ice-attribute techniques, they give people a sense of purity and holiness, with ice-like skin and jade-like bones, their skin shimmering with a radiant glow, even more delicate and smooth than mutton-fat jade.

"No need to be so formal."

Mu Ciyin said indifferently. At this time, she had a dignified demeanor, and the aura of a superior was fully revealed. Even just standing there, she inspired awe.

She was completely different from when she was alone with Jun Wuxie.

Although her temperament had not changed, she never revealed her aura of majesty in front of Jun Wuxie.

"Pavilion Master, this is..."

The two Ice Heart Pavilion women guarding the mountain gate were only now beginning to size up Jun Wuxie.

Previously, although they saw the Pavilion Master with a man by her side, they didn't have time to pay attention.

At this time, they were shocked. The Pavilion Master was actually holding a man's hand like that. For them, this was simply a fantasy, unbelievable!

Before Mu Ciyin could speak, the shocked expressions on their faces quickly turned into excitement and agitation.

"Ah, is he... is he Divine Jun?"

The two composed women suddenly became like young girls, their eyes shining as they looked at Jun Wuxie.

They remembered that there were many portraits of Divine Jun in the pavilion. Wasn't the young man in front of them Divine Jun from the portraits?

This legendary man! Over the years, the Ice Heart Pavilion had heard too many of his legendary deeds, his growth history in the Lower Realm, his fight against darkness, and his suppression of the apocalyptic torrent.

Even the Pavilion Master had repeatedly gathered the sect to tell his legendary stories, making them yearn for and admire that legendary man, filled with curiosity.

Recently, news came that the Azure Province Dawn Dynasty was gaining fame, and the name of Divine Jun of Dawn shook the Eastern Region. Even their Northern Region had heard of it.

They never thought that they would see the real person today, right in front of them, so close!

"Mu Qin, Mu Yu, greet Divine Jun!"

The two women hurriedly stepped forward and bowed gracefully to him, "Divine Jun, hello."

After saying that, they pursed their lips and smiled, and then looked at him with their beautiful, clear eyes without blinking, as if there were flowers on his face.

"Hello." Jun Wuxie nodded slightly in response, then looked at Mu Ciyin. Although he didn't speak, his eyes were clearly asking her what was going on.

"This teacher has told the story of your growth in the Lower Realm and the legendary deeds of quelling the dark torrent in the pavilion, so the people in the pavilion already know you and admire you, this Divine Jun. So, when you arrive in the pavilion, don't be surprised if you encounter people who admire you."

Jun Wuxie: ......

He didn't expect that Ciyin Shizun would do this, starting to get the people of Ice Heart Pavilion to recognize him long ago. Could it be that she had already planned to hand over Ice Heart Pavilion to him?

"Divine Jun, many places in our pavilion have your portraits hanging, just short of sculpting a statue for you. There is no one in the pavilion who doesn't recognize you."

Mu Qin and Mu Yu were very clear about Divine Jun's position in the Pavilion Master's heart. Otherwise, how could someone like the Pavilion Master hold his hand and look at him with such gentleness when speaking to him, a gentleness they had never seen before?

Moreover, this legendary man also made them yearn for him, and they couldn't help but feel respect for him in their hearts.

"Alright."

Jun Wuxie was really surprised. He didn't expect that even though he had never been to Ice Heart Pavilion, Ice Heart Pavilion already had his legend.

"Divine Jun, you don't know, we weren't allowed to laugh before. Because of you, we can now express the joy in our hearts with laughter without restraint."

"Divine Jun..."

The two Holy Emperor women guarding the mountain gate seemed to have opened a chatterbox, saying one thing after another in front of him, their faces filled with smiles throughout the entire process.

"Ciyin Shizun, is that so?"

Jun Wuxie didn't expect that she used to be so strict with the people of the sect, not even allowing them to laugh.

"I used to think that they should restrain their emotions at all times, but later, when I went to the Lower Realm and saw the Ice Cloud Tower that you reformed, I realized that I had gone down the wrong path, so I corrected it in time. What, are you going to blame this teacher?"

"How dare this disciple."

Jun Wuxie smiled wryly. How could he blame her? It would be outrageous for a disciple to blame his teacher.

"You're being insincere. Haven't you ever been fierce to this teacher?"

There was a hint of annoyance in Mu Ciyin's cool voice, which left Jun Wuxie speechless. He really wanted to say that it was because you were affected by the inner demon, and you were even at the point of forcing him to cultivate dual cultivation. Extraordinary times call for extraordinary measures, does that count?

"That time doesn't count..."

He showed a wry smile. Ciyin Shizun was actually brooding over that matter, taking it out now to choke him.

While they were talking, the two Holy Emperor women guarding the mountain gate were already dumbfounded.

What did they hear?

Divine Jun actually scolded the Pavilion Master!

Heavens, the Pavilion Master doesn't seem angry at all!

What kind of existence is the Pavilion Master? She only needs a single glance, and everyone in the sect, from top to bottom, wouldn't even dare to breathe loudly.

Her temperament is very strong, constantly exuding great majesty. It would be good enough if people weren't afraid in her presence, yet Jun Shen actually scolded her.

A disciple scolding their master!

Jun Shen is really too fierce and too domineering!

Regarding the matter of the Pavilion Master being scolded by Jun Wuxie, they found that they didn't feel angry at all, but instead admired and adored him even more.

They themselves felt bewildered, how could they have such a rebellious psychology.

"You two, send out a notice. Gather at Ice Mirror Lake tomorrow. Tell everyone that if they want to see Jun Shen, they should come tomorrow. Don't disturb those cultivating in the secret realm."

"Ah, yes, Pavilion Master."

Mu Qin and Mu Yu came back to their senses and hurriedly responded. At this time, Mu Ciyin had already entered the mountain gate with Jun Wuxie. Their pace seemed slow, but in reality, it was like teleportation, disappearing from their sight in an instant.

"Senior Sister Qin, Jun Shen is even more heroic than in the portrait. I feel an indescribable greatness from him, giving people a very comfortable and reassuring feeling…"

Mu Yu looked in the direction where Jun Wuxie disappeared, murmuring to herself.

"Yes, indeed. No wonder Xue Lan and Yun Xi miss Jun Shen so much that they're almost lovesick…"

Understanding his heroic deeds in turning the tide and saving the lower realm from the apocalyptic flood, he was already great in their hearts, which is why they have such a psychology.
