Chapter 965: Chapter 965: Impoverished Experts

Dream realization?

You actually call this dream realization?

So you mean we should be grateful to you?

Not only Celestial Venerable Ming Jue, but everyone present was dying to throw in their sarcastic comments.

Back then, Ming Jue’s words about ’I can still remember the scene of being recruited into the valley on the first day together billions of years ago’ were merely putting on an act.

Perhaps he truly felt a bit nostalgic.

But no matter what, no one would genuinely want to return to their weaker selves.

Did you actually take those words seriously?

What shocked them even more was how such a thing could be accomplished?

How mystical is this person?

Venerable Ying Yan gritted his teeth, furious, "Now that we’ve realized our dreams enough, can we go back to normal?"

"No way!"

Brother Cheng shook his head firmly, "After all the effort I’ve put in, you think it’s just a momentary experience?"

"Wouldn’t that be disrespecting my hard work?"

"Savor the experience, relive those days thoroughly!"

Relive your head!

I don’t want to be weak!

Whether it was Venerable Ying Yan or the uninvolved experts like Yun Suo and Feng Lin, they were all silently cursing.

But Celestial Venerable Ming Jue faced this blow without losing his sanity.

"This state definitely won’t last long!"

"Once it’s over, everything will surely revert!"

He wiped the blood foam from the corner of his mouth and slowly turned back to glance at Venerable Ying Yan and the others.

"In the future... strengthen our Ice Immortal Sect well!"

Immediately following, he activated his lone Emperor Realm First Layer immortal power and rules, fiercely charging towards Sect Leader Jiang!

Simultaneously, he shouted.

"Escape!"

Honestly, seeing this, Brother Cheng felt a bit impressed by the man.

From being at the bottom when entering the valley billions of years ago, he became the second strongest after the Ice Extreme Saint Venerable, single-handedly pulling up the powerful sect of Ice Immortal Sect.

He cared about the future situation, planned ahead, truly foresightful.

Compared to Ice Extreme Saint Venerable, he was indeed more suited to be the leader of the Ice Realm.

With him, the Ice Realm might truly become stronger in the future.

But alas, he couldn’t tolerate himself, nor Ji Linghan and others.

Destined to be enemies.

Jiang Cheng no longer stood with hands behind but specifically drew the Cold Slayer Sword.

Facing this Ice Realm hero, he unleashed his strongest strike, giving him enough dignity.

Bang!

The sky was filled with ice flowers, exploding into powder, flying scattered!

Celestial Venerable Ming Jue became history.

And the remaining disciples of the Ice Immortal Sect fled in all directions, yet how could they escape?

Jiang Cheng used a Divine Soul Shock, and all Ice Immortal Sect members, including Venerable Ying Yan, fell without a sound.

This battle ended just like that.

Henceforth, there was no Ice Immortal Sect in the world.

The scene was silent, and the previously panic-stricken Yun Suo, Zhong Bei, and others were all silent.

They merely watched the ground covered in bodies and debris, their expressions incomprehensibly complex.

After a long time, Venerable Zuo Mo finally sighed softly.

"Perhaps this is his fate..."

"Dying in Ice Origin Valley could be considered dying in worth."

"A billion-year dream ended in emptiness."

They weren’t Holy Fathers.

Though thoughtful, they wouldn’t blame Jiang Cheng for excessive slaughter.

If these people weren’t killed, it would be themselves who died in the end.

The Time Loop’s effect vanished, and everyone returned to their previous state.

"Jiang Cheng..."

Looking at Brother Cheng, they felt very conflicted.

How should one view this odd figure now?

Single-handedly taking down the entire Ice Immortal Sect, which even the Ice Extreme Saint Venerable couldn’t achieve.

Yet his realm was indeed just Emperor Realm Sixth Layer.

Meanwhile, Brother Cheng himself had no mood for joy.

Because he realized this battle lacked the spoils of previous victories.

The killed individuals died in the ancient state from billions of years ago, and naturally, their belongings were as well.

With death vanishing like extinguished lamps, even if the Time Loop effect ended, everything they owned as Celestial Venerables and Venerables wouldn’t recover.

Looking at the ground full of Ninth-grade Immortal Artifacts, Brother Cheng felt like crying without tears.

This won’t do; winning a battle without gains means it was pointless.

He could only rub his fingers and smile cunningly at Venerable Yun Suo and Feng Lin.

"I kind of saved you, right?"

"Well, indeed."

These esteemed experts rubbed their noses, truly having to admit this point.

If not for him, they would surely face a purge by Ice Immortal Sect.

Facing Celestial Venerable Ming Jue, none would survive.

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Jiang, for saving us!"

"Fellow Daoist Jiang showed great might, we admire!"

Brother Cheng felt urgent, you only express gratitude verbally, come on, show some real appreciation.

His dictionary didn’t include noble sentiments like doing favors without expecting returns.

To level up quickly, he wouldn’t let any opportunity pass.

Seeing these seniors’ lack of tact, he could only proactively remind them.

"In these billions of years, you must have... well, a lot of unused treasures, right?"

"If you insist on giving, I wouldn’t refuse."

This...

Venerable Yun Suo and Feng Lin exchanged glances, finally understanding his intent.

Momentarily, they felt both amused and helpless.

When did we ever insist on giving?

"Honestly, there’s nothing."

Venerable Feng Lin felt a bit embarrassed.

"We usually cultivate within the valley, went out only a few times in billions of years, there’s no opportunity to obtain treasures."

So poor?

Brother Cheng felt a bit unbelievable.

He couldn’t be bothered to pillage; instead, he felt more curious.

"Then where did the Tier Five True Artifacts and resources you currently use come from?"

Venerable Yun Suo shook his head with a resigned smile.

"All were bestowed by the Ice Extreme Saint Venerable back then."

"All his gifts?" Brother Cheng found it even more incredible.

Where did Ice Extreme Saint Venerable get so many high-tier true artifacts?

"Certainly."

"Even the weapons and armor used by the Ice Immortal Sect were his gifts?"

"Correct."

"Damn, this Celestial Venerable Ming Jue is really reprehensible!"

Brother Cheng instantly erased any respect he had towards the man.

You consume others’ resources, use their gifts, yet kill the benefactor in the end.

This is absolutely crossing the line!

"Alas, indeed, such a pity for Ice Extreme Saint Venerable!"

Mentioning him, several Venerables’ expressions turned dejected and sorrowful.

"With his power, how could he be killed by Ming Jue?"

Sect Leader Jiang was somewhat puzzled.

"Probably during cultivation deep within the Origin, Ming Jue took him by surprise."

"Is that so, then I’ll take a look."

Brother Cheng finished speaking and dove into the Origin.

After a period of traversing, he unexpectedly discovered Ice Extreme Saint Venerable.

At this time, the master of Ice Origin Valley was indeed in a pitiful state.

After his Law Space was shattered, his Ice Body suffered direct erosion from the Origin.

By now, it had been completely depleted.

The only thing left was a frail Divine Soul.

And even this Divine Soul wouldn’t last long, for the Origin would devour even Divine Souls.

However, at least he wasn’t dead yet.
