Invincible Beyond Heavens: Cultivating With A Broken EXP System - Chapter 292: Arrival of the Ice God Valley!

Chapter 292: Arrival of the Ice God Valley!

More importantly, Li Yun had no intention of fleeing.

In fact, as he stood in the center of the encirclement and felt four waves of killing intent pressing down on him from every direction, another thought had already appeared in his mind.

If he fought four Essence Qi Realm elders openly at Heaven Dew Peak, the result would be chaos on an enormous scale. The summit would split further. Buildings would collapse. Geniuses would panic. Major forces would lose face. Countless people would remember the scene forever.

And most importantly, the experience points would be tremendous.

That thought alone caused Li Yun to slowly lick his lips, a trace of greedy anticipation flashing through his eyes.

The surrounding geniuses felt their scalps turn numb when they saw that expression.

He was surrounded by four powerful elders, yet instead of fear, hesitation, or desperation, Li Yun looked excited. Many people could not help asking themselves the same question. Was this person mad?

Just as Li Yun was about to move first and break through one side of the encirclement with overwhelming force before the elders could coordinate, a loud voice suddenly rang across Heaven Dew Peak.

“This is enough.”

The voice was cold, dignified, and carried unquestionable authority. It was not shouted, yet every person on the mountain heard it clearly as though it had sounded directly beside them.

The moment those words spread through the summit, even the surging killing intent of the Boundless Martial Palace elders paused for an instant.

Then a second flying boat descended from the sky.

Its arrival changed the atmosphere immediately. Frost spread through the air, and snowflakes began drifting across the summit despite the clear weather only moments earlier. The temperature dropped so quickly that many disciples shivered involuntarily.

The massive vessel was carved from pale blue crystal-like material. Under the sunlight, it gleamed like a moving iceberg gliding through the heavens. Ancient formations glowed faintly along its surface, while streams of icy qi spiraled gracefully around the hull.

At the highest point of the vessel fluttered the banner of another great force.

Ice God Valley.

The summit erupted instantly. People who had already been shocked several times that day now found themselves stunned yet again.

“The Ice God Valley has arrived as well!”

“What is happening today?”

“First Boundless Martial Palace, and now Ice God Valley?”

“This Tea Ceremony has become something entirely different!”

Even those who had come merely to observe now understood they were witnessing an event that would be discussed for years to come.

At the front of the crystal flying boat stood an elderly woman in silver-blue robes embroidered with snow lotus patterns. Her posture was perfectly straight, and though age lined her face, her eyes remained sharp and terrifyingly clear. Cold qi naturally flowed around her body, freezing the moisture in the air wherever it passed.

She was Elder Mu.

And it was she who had spoken.

Behind Elder Mu stood several elders of Ice God Valley, each carrying deep and restrained auras. Their presence was calm rather than explosive, but no one doubted their strength. They were the kind of experts whose power no longer needed display.

Standing farther back were the younger generation elites of Ice God Valley. Every one of them radiated extraordinary talent.

Some carried swords forged from translucent ice crystal. Some wore robes marked with the valley’s sigils. Others stood with folded arms, silently observing the chaos below with proud and composed expressions.

They were all ranked geniuses or figures close to the rankings.

And among them stood a woman Li Yun recognized immediately.

Mu Lan.

She stood near the front in flowing pale robes. Her expression remained calm, yet the instant her eyes found Li Yun below, a sharp light rose within them.

Han Li and Han Xue looked upward in astonishment. Neither of them had imagined Mu Lan would appear again in such a manner.

Mu Lan’s gaze shifted from Li Yun to the four elders surrounding him, and a trace of coldness immediately appeared in her eyes.

On the flying boat of Boundless Martial Palace, Yan Luo’s expression remained composed, but her gaze toward Elder Mu had clearly grown colder.

Elder Mu slowly stepped forward to the edge of the crystal vessel. Her robes fluttered lightly in the freezing wind as she looked down upon the summit. When she spoke again, her voice descended like a cutting winter gale.

“This is a Tea Ceremony for the younger generation.”

Her eyes fell directly upon the four elders encircling Li Yun.

“Since when did Boundless Martial Palace become so shameless that four old men surround one junior in public?”

The entire crowd instantly fell silent.

The accusation was direct, sharp, and impossible to ignore.

Elder Fan’s expression darkened at once, and the veins at his temple visibly twitched with anger.

At the center of the ruined arena, Li Yun casually rested his sword upon his shoulder and lifted his gaze toward the flying boat of Ice God Valley. His expression remained calm, but inwardly he could not help letting out a sigh.

What a pity.

A perfect opportunity to create even greater chaos had just appeared before him. Four elders of Boundless Martial Palace had surrounded him in public view. Killing intent pressed in from every direction. Countless geniuses watched with racing hearts. A battle powerful enough to shake all of Heaven Dew Peak could have erupted at any moment.

The amount of experience he might have gained from such glorious madness would have been extraordinary.

Yet with the arrival of Ice God Valley, Li Yun already knew that chance had likely slipped away. Once great powers entered the stage, politics usually arrived before bloodshed. Matters that should have been solved by fists became tangled in reputation, alliances, and hidden calculations.

Even so, Li Yun did not move. He remained exactly where he stood, watching events unfold as though he were merely an observer instead of the center of the storm.

Above him, Elder Fan’s face had already darkened to the point of distortion. The veins at his temples bulged visibly, and the scar running across his face made him look even more savage.

He slowly turned toward the crystal flying boat of Ice God Valley, his gaze burning with hostility.

“Elder Mu,” he said coldly, each word filled with restrained fury, “are you saying Ice God Valley intends to interfere in the affairs of my Boundless Martial Palace?”

The atmosphere tightened immediately.

Many disciples unconsciously stopped breathing for a moment.
