Chapter 2423 "Black Ice Gate"

Only take this step if absolutely necessary.
Ling Yun chooses to stay in the Primordial Ancient World in order to establish a strong support base for the disciples of the White Deer Sect in the Seven Treasures Ancient World. Reply token: @@Only take this step if absolutely necessary.@@ Ling Yun chooses to stay in the Primordial Ancient World in order to establish a strong support base for the disciples of the White Deer Sect in the Seven Treasures Ancient World.
In this way, the people of the White Deer Sect in the Qibao Ancient Realm will always be able to retreat to the Yuanchu Ancient Realm if they encounter danger in the Qibao Ancient Realm.
If he is being chased and escapes to the Qibao Ancient Realm, it means cutting off this escape route.
Last time he was fortunate as major forces didn't pay much attention to him, allowing him to visit the Qibao Ancient Realm and then return.
However, now all major forces are keeping an eye on him.
If he were to go to the Qibao Ancient Realm at this time, he would definitely be discovered.
Three days later.
Ling Yun finally arrived at the border of the Central Realm.
Using the spatial gate, one can cross it in an instant.
But using teleportation arrays and flying requires three days of travel, during which there can be no pauses.
After three days of traveling, Ling Yun was feeling somewhat weary.
So he found a restaurant in a city to take a break.
In the main hall of the restaurant, Ling Yun ordered some food and drinks, tasting them slowly while also listening to some news. Translated:
忽然凌云注意到，大厅不远处一个角落，出现骚乱。
是一个魁梧大汉在搭讪一个女武者。
这女武者拒绝魁梧大汉。
魁梧大汉却变本加厉，从言语上的搭讪，转化为动手动脚。
As the situation developed, Ling Yun and the other people in the hall paid no attention.
It's true that such things are common in places like restaurants where all kinds of people mix.
However, the subsequent development of the situation is indeed worrisome.
Female samurai's companion, seeing the situation, becomes furious and directly smashes a dish on the head of the burly man, forcing him to leave.
The burly man instantly flies into a rage and grabs hold of the female samurai's companion, giving them a severe beating.
Ling Yun's gaze turned slightly cold.
Setting aside the fact that the actions of the burly man were quite disgraceful.
In terms of cultivation, the burly man is at the level of crossing the first tribulation, while the female warrior is only at the level of a formative warrior.
The former is undoubtedly taking advantage of the weak.
The development of the situation is not over yet.
The other companions of the burly man rushed over, kicking and punching the female warrior.
The female warrior's companions tried to intervene but ended up being beaten together.
Everyone around watched.
Many people's faces actually showed expressions of unwillingness and anger.
But no one dared to step forward to stop it.
The burly man and his group were all tall and sturdy, and they were all experts at crossing the tribulation.
The locals are also well aware that they come from a powerful force.
Offending them, regular warriors wouldn't be able to bear the consequences and might very likely put themselves in danger.
Following this trend, if the burly man and his group continue fighting, the female warrior and her few female companions are estimated to either end up dead or injured.
Buzz! Suddenly, a blurry figure shoots past.
Bang! Bang! Bang... A group of burly men, almost in an instant, all fly backward.
The people around stare in shock.
Then they see the blurry figure stops, revealing a young man dressed in black.
Several heavily injured women were stunned.
Prior to this, they had been plunged into despair, thinking they would be beaten to death.
They never expected that someone would come to their rescue.
"Who are you?"
The burly man stared at Lingyun with shock and anger, "We are members of the Black Ice Sect, you've offended us..." Puh puh puh... Lingyun didn't hold back.
Sword light flashed.
The burly man and his companions were instantly killed by him.
These scumbags are not worth living! Just as the burly man and others died, a large number of figures appeared around them.
"They are people from the Black Ice Gate!"
Someone exclaimed.
This city is called "Black Ice City".
The Black Ice Gate is the ruler of Black Ice City.
This is also why the burly man and others dare to be so arrogant.
The Black Ice Gate is not a small power, it is considered a first-class force even in the Mustard Seed Domain.
Although not on par with top forces like the Golden Lion Tribe, they can still be considered a dominator in their own right.
"How dare you commit violence within the Black Ice City!"
A middle-aged man, who appeared to be the leader, said sternly.
He is the senior elder of the Black Ice Sect, a half-step supreme powerhouse.
The others present felt a chill, thinking that the black-clad young man was certainly done for.
Ling Yun's expression was cold: "When they were bullying the weak, you were nowhere to be seen. Now that they have been killed, you suddenly show up so actively." Translated:
“还敢狡辩，把他拿下，若敢反抗，就地格杀！”
The middle-aged man said.
“我看大胆的人是你。”
没等黑冰门的人出手，一道冰冷声音便响起。
Then people saw a young man in purple clothes appear out of nowhere! "How dare you disrespect our elder..." a disciple of the Black Ice Sect shouted.
Before he could finish his sentence, the elder of the Black Ice Sect slapped him away.
Then, the elder of the Black Ice Gate looked at the young man in purple clothes with fear and said, "Supreme Duan, you... how did you come here?"
Everyone else widened their eyes in astonishment.
Supreme?
This young man in purple clothes, is he actually a supreme being?
"If I hadn't come, how could I have seen the filthy side of the Heibingmen through you."
The young man in purple clothes said coldly, "You ignore it when a few scum bully men and dominate women, but you are very actively involved when someone comes out to act chivalrously.
Since the Black Ice Sect is so powerful, from now on, it doesn't need to be affiliated with my Caolu sect anymore.
Hearing these words, the elder of the Black Ice Sect was struck by thunder and his face instantly turned pale.
In this chaotic world, any force that wants to survive steadily must have a backer.
And for the Black Ice Gate, their backer is Caolu! Without the protection of Caolu, the Black Ice Gate will undoubtedly face countless enemies swooping in.
In the future, it will be a big problem for Heibinmen to even survive, let alone become stronger.
The surrounding people immediately began to make noise.
Damn it! This young man in purple clothes is actually from Caolu.
草芦，是须弥域顶尖势力。
在上古时期，草芦有过极度辉煌的时候，乃是须弥域之霸主。
不过后来草芦衰败，曾经的地位被元族取而代之。
Even so, the skeletal remains of a camel are still larger than a horse.
The Grass Rush is still a top force.
And if I find out that you dare to strike back against them, there will be no need for the existence of the Black Ice Gate anymore."
Purple-clad youth said.
"We have no intention of doing so."
The Elder of the Black Ice Gate hurriedly replied.
Previously, he had indeed thought of using these female warriors to vent his anger.
Now, upon hearing the words of the purple-clad youth, all his thoughts instantly vanished.
The current situation is very bad.
Just not reaching the extreme yet.
草芦只是不再庇护黑冰门，却没有主动针对黑冰门。
若激怒草芦，惹得草芦亲自对黑冰门下手，那才是真的惨。
After handling all these matters, the young man in purple looked at Lingyun with a smile and said, "Lingyun, why don't we find a place to talk?"
Lingyun's gaze flickered slightly.
This action from the young man in purple had aroused his interest.
He was also curious about what the other party wanted to talk to him about.
Immediately, Lingyun nodded.
Half an hour later.
The two stood by a small river.
"Lingyun, I am Duan Tianya, the senior brother of Caulu College."
The young man in purple clothes said, "I want to invite you, on behalf of the Grass Reed, to join us."
Ling Yun was shocked for a moment and replied, "You, from the Grass Reed, are inviting me to join?"
Duan Zhi Zun, if you are here to invite me, I suppose you must have some knowledge about me, and also know the kind of enemies I have offended.
If I join Grass Reed, it means you will take Grass Reed too and defend against these enemies for me. Are you sure?
He was really surprised.
Before, he approached several top forces seeking protection.
All those forces refused him.
Unexpectedly, when he had lost hope and decided to slowly wear down the Golden Lion Tribe, a top force took the initiative to invite him.
We have extensively and diligently studied you, and we are aware of the reasons why other forces reject you and why they refuse to accept you.
Duan Tianya said, "Since we are here to recruit you, I won't speak hypothetically. Your talent is an important factor that we value." Please note that
Another factor, then, is that we have always had a grudge against the Golden Lion Clan and have never had a good relationship with the Yuan Clan.
Ling Yun's expression barely changed.
If that's the case, then it would explain why Cao Lu doesn't mind offending both the Golden Lion Clan and the Yuan Clan for him.
Because Cao Lu is already an enemy of the Golden Lion Tribe and the Yuan Tribe.
"Okay, I agree!"
Ling Yun decided immediately.
Duan Tianya was slightly stunned, then he laughed and said, "I thought you needed some time to consider, but I didn't expect you to be more free-spirited and decisive than I thought."
凌云道：“所谓的考虑和斟酌，很多时候其实只是在故作矜持。
人在同意一件事时，其实内心早就做出决定。
而今天，段至尊你对我坦诚，那我也无需扭扭捏捏。”
“Then come with me.”
Duan Tianya directly took Ling Yun and headed to Cao Lu.
“In Cao Lu, I wonder how many people are there?”
Along the way, Ling Yun asked.
Since he had decided to join Cao Lu, it was natural for him to understand this power.
段天涯沉默，片刻后道：“三个。”
"How many people?"
凌云怀疑自己听错了。
“包括你在内，三个人。”
段天涯道：“我不想用欺骗手段招揽你，你如果反悔，可以随时离开。”
"I didn't mean anything else, just purely surprised. Listening to those people's comments, Grass Reeds is clearly a top force, how can there be only three, no, two people?"
Ling Yun said.
“The strength of a sect, relies on three aspects.”
Duantian Ya said, "First, the sect must have a strong historical heritage, and in this regard, Caulu is the most powerful force in the Central Domain's historical heritage."
Second, the high-level experts in the sect must be strong. Nowadays, the leader of the sect, who is also my teacher, is one of the top experts in the Central Domain.
Third, disciples must be strong.
As a disciple of the sect, I became a supreme expert at the age of fifty-seven. Among the younger generation in the entire Central Domain, this is definitely top-notch.
Of course, the second point is actually the most important.
He is truly powerful, as long as he is around, the Grasshopper Clan will remain the top force in the world!
"How powerful is he?"
Ling Yun asked.
"You will see for yourself in a while."
Duan Tianya asked.
Another half an hour passed.
Ling Yun stood on a dilapidated mountain peak, doubting if he had come to the wrong place.
He thought that Cao Lu was once the overlord of the Central Domain, and no matter how dilapidated it is now, the sect should still be luxurious and imposing.
There is only a broken mountain here.
On the mountain, there is a dilapidated grass hut.
It is indeed a grass hut.
"Is this really a grass hut?"
Ling Yun said.
"Guaranteed."
Duan Tianya asked.
“不是说，草芦曾经是中域霸主吗？”
凌云道：“其他顶尖势力，无不是阁楼如林，山峰众多，霸主更不用说，草芦就一间草芦？
你告诉我，是不是草芦有什么隐藏秘境，真正的宗门基地在秘境里？”
