Divine God Against The Heavens

As Ye Xiao flew forward persistently, the sand grain-sized 'hope' became bigger and bigger, reaching the size of a large sphere.

And it became increasingly bigger, gradually enveloping Ye Xiao. The scene before him changed in an instant, the light enshrouded his body. He exited the endless black tunnel and came to a mountainous open space that was not only frozen because of extreme cold but the ground's surface was also littered with white bones everywhere!

There were humans, beasts, and some unknown creature's bones. Heaps upon heaps, mountains piled next to each other. Some bone mountains peaked as high as a hundred meters!

These white bones emanated an evil Yin energy that formed a fiendish gale that swirled in the air above like wailing ghost cries.

Looking at this scene, Ye Xiao frowned.

What kind of place was this? How could such a place exist within the Land of Ice? These heaps and mounds of white bones from humans, beasts, and strange creatures.

The temperature here was incredibly low. It was fortunate that the Sun Fire Soul was no ordinary fire soul. Even a Sky Fire Soul which is golden in colour could not be compared to the Sun Fire Soul.

Sun Fire Soul comes in the category of Rare Fire Souls and it was placed in the top ten even amongst the Rare Fire Souls.

The Sun Fire Soul was enough to take care of the cold aura of Ye Xiao's surroundings.

Right now, his entire body was covered with the Sun Fire Soul, making him look like a Fire God as his entire body was blazing brightly.

His Fire Soul did surprise Wu Cheng and others but they thought that it was only an ordinary fire soul since its colour was red. What they could not understand was the fact how Ye Xiao was able to survive and was walking normally with an ordinary Yellow Grade Red Fire Soul?

Ye Xiao continued to walk forward as if he had arrived in an underworld of white bones.

It was also at this moment that Ye Xiao again sensed the location of where the White Flag was placed. Wings of Divine Dragon spread out from behind his back and he shot out in a certain direction.

After flying for more than dozens of minutes, Ye Xiao arrived at a very big clean place. There was no mountain of white bones of humans, beasts, or strange creatures. This place was too clean.

The only thing that made it still look like the Land of Ice was the fact that this clean place was covered in a thick layer of snow and snow was still falling down continuously from the sky. The temperature was still very low here.

In the center of this clean place, Ye Xiao saw a White Flag floating in the air. On the ground below the White Flag, a formation could be seen shining with blue lights. It was this formation that was blocking Ye Xiao's Divine Sense to probe the location of the White Flag.

"You are mine!"

Ye Xiao muttered in his heart and flew straight towards the White Flag. In a very short time, Ye Xiao was already standing in front of the White Flag.

He extended his hand and just as he was about to catch the White Flag, the ground suddenly started shaking heavily, making Ye Xiao lose balance as he fell down on the ground.

It was also the moment when the ground a few meters in front of him has suddenly split apart into two halves and the upper part of the ground was shattered into many tiny rocks.

A huge head slowly emerged out from the ground, followed by a long neck and other parts of the body. This was yet another huge but strange creature.

A name suddenly appeared in Ye Xiao's mind as he looked at this strange creature in front of him: "Man-Demon Ice Horse!"

The Man-Demon Ice Horse is a snow monster that likes to live within the depth of the snow ground. It is a creature that will surely send a chill up the bones of any martial artist. It is said to be a type of Ice Demon. The Man-Demon Ice Horse likes to waste its time sleeping always and would not reveal itself if a person or even a beast stronger than it was to appear in its line of sight but if the person appearing was weaker than it, the Man-Demon Ice Horse will surely emerge out from the Snow Ground's depths.

It has a cowardly nature as it only likes to hunt down the weaker opponents and hides itself in front of stronger opponents.

The Man-Demon Ice Horse has the appearance of a horse with the upper body of a man coming out of the middle of its back. The head of the man-like part is three times big than a normal man and it rolls back and forth. Its arms were too long and were being dragged on the ground.

The legs of this creature have fin-like appendages. The horse head has a gaping mouth and a single blood-red eye. The creature has no skin; all that can be seen on its surface was the powerful muscles and pale sinew, with black blood pulsating through yellow veins. The horse's mouth breathes a smelly but cold toxic vapor.

"Roar!"

The Man-Demon Ice Horse looked at Ye Xiao with its one red eye and roared loudly. It could not sense any kind of strong aura from Ye Xiao's body other than the Sun Fire. So, according to it, Ye Xiao was yet another weakling that came to throw away his life.

Around a month ago, it had sensed three men coming here and doing something but the aura on their bodies was too strong. So, it never showed itself. Although it was hungry and carved for those three people to fill up his hunger, it dared not appear in front of them and attack.

But the case with Ye Xiao was different. He was nothing but a weakling that came to throw away his life in the eye of this Man-Demon Ice Horse.

It gave Ye Xiao a mocking look. Although the Man-Demon Ice Horse kept staring at Ye Xiao and even roared at him, it was still cautious and didn't immediately attack.

.....

_Outside!_

A group of participants was standing in the big arena were looking at the numerous water screens in front of them.

There were eight participants in this group, five men and three women. Four of them were holding Red Flags while the other four were holding white flags in their hands.

Clearly, they were the eight participants who have already been selected as eight out of ten participants that will represent the Immortal Star Sect in the competition of the Myriad Worlds.

In the sky, only two big water screens could be seen. As for other water screens, Wu Cheng chose not to show others. Not only it will consume a great amount of energy, but it was also taking up a large space.

The two water screens were showing two participants that were very close to obtain the flag placed in their respective areas.

One of the water screens was the scene of the Land of Fire where a chubby young girl was fighting against terrifying a Fire Demon. Not far away from where she was fighting, a Red Flag was hovering in the air, and around it was an invisible barrier that was protecting the flag from not only other's divine sense, but also from the fire and Fire Demons.

The chubby young girl was trying her best to fight against the Fire Demon and was on the verge of collapsing. She was seriously injured and was bleeding from her hands, cheek, waist, and from her back.

Her clothes were tattered and she was almost entirely nude but there was no greed or lust in the eyes of the people watching her. All the people had fear in their eyes as their heart was beating too fast.

The chubby young girl was fighting against this Fire Demon for whole two days without any rest. At first, she could still fight equally but as time passed, she started to fall at disadvantage, and now, she was on the verge of collapsing while the Fire Demon had no injury on its body.

Just like the Valley Ye Xiao was in was the most dangerous area of the Land of Ice, the place where the chubby young girl was fighting against the Fire Demon was also the most dangerous area of the Land of Fire.

The chubby young girl was actually at the Middle Stage of the Immortal King Realm. This could also show her potential as only the disciples of First Level Sects who were less than 300 years old were allowed to participate in the competition.

For many people, it takes them more than 500 hundred years just to reach the Immortal King Realm but this chubby young girl was already at the Middle Stage of the Immortal King Realm when she is still less than 300 years old.
