Starting With 100 Million Lives

Chapter 945 - 945: The Gates of Ice Origin Valley Open

The experts of the Ice Palace were anxious at the thought that Jiang Cheng might reach the top.How could this be allowed?

If he entered the Ice Origin Valley, no one could touch him.

The three Seventh Layer experts who died before would've died for nothing.

This was quite frustrating.

"We must stop him!"

"Yes, we can't let this happen!"

"Third Palace Master, we can't wait any longer. It's time to act!"

Ji Cang was greatly annoyed by the Ice Palace higher-ups asking for action.

"Who can stop him?"

"Can you climb up there and pull him down?"

"Or can you destroy the Ice Ladder?"

He also wanted to stop him, but there's no way to do it, okay?

The Ice Ladder itself is too unique to use any Immortal Power or Divine Soul attacks on it.

At most, they could climb over 50 levels, while he was already at over 90; they couldn't even touch his tail lights.

What can stop him?

They could only watch helplessly as Jiang Cheng continued to ascend.

All the while listening to cheers around them, getting louder and louder.

At this time, Jiang Cheng had already surpassed 100 levels.

Only about 20 levels were left.

This guy still hadn't felt any pressure, nor found any challenges.

In his eyes, it was just climbing a staircase normally.

Is this it?

This is the test that garnered all the attention of the Ice Realm?

He even began to doubt if there was something wrong with the Ice Ladder.

"Can I have a little challenge? Without any difficulties, I feel like I'm cheating, having no sense of participation."

He wasn't satisfied.

He wished he had pretended to struggle a bit earlier.

Now it's too late to pretend.

Climbing one level after another was just too tedious and boring.

So, in the end, he directly leaped into the air.

Jumping all the way from the 101st level, he crossed over 20 levels, landing on the 128th level, officially reaching the top!

Really? Just like that?

Everyone was petrified, even Ji Cang.

Who hasn't struggled step by step upon reaching the Celestial Dao Ice Ladder?

To think he could still jump with both feet off the ground?

Did I just see it wrong?

Where were the challenges?

Where was the terrifying difficulty said to come later?

How relaxed was he?

He instantly turned everyone who had climbed the Ice Ladder before into a joke, just too cruel.

The whole place fell silent; everyone was stunned by this guy.

No one could process this scene quickly.

At that moment, directly opposite the top of the Ice Ladder, a light suddenly appeared.

A door glowing with mystical light appeared out of thin air.

Then, a middle-aged man in linen clothes, with a celestial demeanor and black beard, stepped out with a smile, walking slowly up to Jiang Cheng.

"Venerable Yun Suo!"

"It's Venerable Yun Suo!"

"He's one of the 500 people chosen back then by the Ice Extreme Saint Venerable, in the first batch!"

His power is unfathomable; even if he's not Ninth Layer, he should be late Eighth Layer.

In billions of years, he's only left the Ice Origin Valley three times.

And those three times were to participate in the True Realm wars.

To many, he's as good as a legendary deity.

"Oh my, to see him in person!"

The crowd erupted in earth-shattering exclamations.

"Someone from the Ice Origin Valley is here!"

"It really is the Ice Origin Valley!"

"Oh my, so reaching the top of the ladder really gets you noticed!"

The Ice Origin Valley holds an enormously high status in the Ice Realm.

Much like the Divine Hall does in the Xuan Race, it's practically a totem.

At this moment, countless eyes gazed with burning envy and jealousy at Jiang Cheng.

They already sensed something was about to happen.

"Congratulations to Fellow Daoist Jiang on reaching the top!"

Venerable Yun Suo seemed to have long known Brother Cheng's name.

He lightly shook the duster in his hand, stroked his long black beard, and formally extended an invitation.

"I have waited long in the valley, please come!"

Saying that, he gestured with his hand.

Next, Jiang Cheng only needed to take two steps forward to enter the Ice Origin Valley, fulfilling the lifelong dream of countless Ice Race people.

From afar, Ji Cang and other Ice Palace experts couldn't bear to watch any longer.

This must not happen!

They hurriedly flew inside, arriving below the Ice Ladder, loudly shouting upwards.

"Venerable Yun Suo, wait!"

"I have something to say, please listen!"

Standing at the top of the ladder, Yun Suo looked down with a slowly fading smile.

"Ji Cang, what do you wish to say?"

Ji Cang looked up and shouted loudly, "Jiang Cheng is from the Otherworld, he's not one of our Ice Realm cultivators!"

Meaning, how could you let an Otherworldly person enter the Ice Origin Valley?

The once noisy crowd quieted down.

Right, he's an outsider, so he shouldn't be allowed in, should he?

In fact, shouldn't the Ice Origin Valley take action against him, even slay him?

However, Venerable Yun Suo, upon hearing this, just shook his head slightly.

"We are already aware, it's no problem, no problem!"

Not a problem?

Ji Cang couldn't comprehend, nor accept.

"But he killed many elites of our Ice Palace!"

"This person is bound to oppose the Ice Realm; how can one raise a tiger to invite disaster?"

"Isn't Ice Origin Valley always tasked with defending the Ice Realm? If we let this person stay, it will only invite disaster in the future..."

Yun Suo interrupted him lightly, "How Ice Origin Valley conducts itself is not yours to question!"

So you want to tell Ice Origin Valley how to do things?

"If one can reach the top, no matter which realm they're from, they have the right to enter!"

Ji Cang was both angry and anxious.

However, Venerable Yun Suo didn't care for this Eighth Layer expert at all.

After speaking, he completely ignored Ji Cang's ugly expression and once again extended the invitation to Brother Cheng.

"Daoist friend, you may come!"

Brother Cheng was also quite surprised.

He had thought that once his identity was revealed, the Ice Origin Valley would bar him.

If that happened, he'd have to fight his way in to seek out Xiaojie.

Unexpectedly, they didn't care about his identity.

How interesting.

He glanced down, planning to step forward when he suddenly noticed Gong Qing watching him intensely.

At this time, Advisor Gong's eyes were exceptionally complex.

There was shock, envy, and also a hint of loss.

Shocked that Jiang Cheng could reach the top, envious that he could enter a place she dreamed of, and lost because she could no longer follow him.

After he entered, she'd be reduced back to her Emperor Realm Second Layer.

No, once he entered, she'd be immediately captured by the Ice Palace, wouldn't she?

Brother Cheng paused his forward step.

He could probably feel what Gong Qing was thinking.

He recalled the longing in her eyes and her eager tone when she mentioned the Ice Origin Valley.

And he remembered all those times she racked her brain to come up with strategies for him.

Even though he always just bulldozed through with his tricks, rendering her plans unnecessary, he appreciated her intentions.

Brother Cheng never neglected his own people.

Hence, he gave Gong Qing a reassuring smile.

Then, he looked at Venerable Yun Suo in front of him.

"She's my friend; may I bring her in with me?"
