Chapter 492: Thousand-Year Ice Mountain Snow Lotus, Hundred-Year Ice Jade Bodhi Fruit

Gu Seywei was left behind by the Ice Snow Queen for a private conversation.

"Your Majesty, what important mission do you have to entrust to me?" Gu Seywei asked.

The Ice Snow Queen did not mention any mission, but instead asked, "Weiwei, how long have you been with me?"

Gu Seywei found it somewhat strange and answered honestly, "Since Your Majesty brought me back to the Ice Snow City from the snow plains, I have always followed Your Majesty. Come to think of it, it has been twenty... twelve years."

It still took her a brief moment to figure it out.

She had almost said twenty years, but realizing that the eight years within the Mystic Realm of Time did not count, she corrected herself before speaking.

The Ice Snow Queen sighed with emotion, "Yes, twelve years. Back then, you were just a little girl, and now you have grown so big."

Gu Seywei smiled and said, "Yes, I still remember the first day Your Majesty brought me back to the Ice Jade Palace. At that time, Mornice was still an apprentice Valkyrie."

"As for Your Majesty, the passage of twelve years has not left any trace upon you; you remain as beautiful as ever."

Hearing this, the Ice Snow Queen smiled faintly.

Unlike humans, she naturally would not complete her entire lifespan within a few decades as humans did.

Next, the Ice Snow Queen and Gu Seywei chatted about many things that had happened in the past.

From time to time, laughter drifted out from the Ice Jade Palace.

The doubts in Gu Seywei's heart also gradually faded, even though she really wanted to ask why the Ice Snow Queen had kept her behind.

However, being able to chat so easily and reminisce about the past was also very pleasant.

When the chat ended, the Ice Snow Queen finally revealed what she wanted Gu Seywei to do.

"What... why me?"

Gu Seywei looked at the Ice Snow Queen in shock, unable to understand her choice.

The Ice Snow Queen did not explain, only telling Gu Seywei to just be prepared.

Whish! Whish! Whish!

Shengxi spread her broad wings, cutting through the sky and rapidly speeding away in a direction leading away from the Ice Snow City.

Levi sat on Shengxi's back, checking the treasures given to him by the Ice Snow Queen.

"Thousand-Year Tianshan Snow Lotus, Hundred-Year Ice Crystal Jade Bodhi Fruit, Tianshan Snow Water richly infused with magical elements... Wow!"

Seeing the natural treasures placed inside the spatial ring, Levi could not help but cry out in pleasant surprise.

These things sent by the Ice Snow Queen were all rare and scarce items in the world.

The Thousand-Year Tianshan Snow Lotus was a top-grade natural treasure for increasing mana, and its effect was even better than the Amethyst Source Magic Potion.

Refining it into a secret medicine would make the consumption effect even better.

Currently, it was of no use to Levi; he was in the stage of awakening and advancing his extraordinary characteristics and did not need to increase his mana.

Once he broke through to the sixth rank, the Thousand-Year Tianshan Snow Lotus could help him reduce a lot of the time required to accumulate and cultivate mana.

The Hundred-Year Ice Jade Bodhi Fruit had the effect of clearing the mind, refreshing the brain, and short-term enhancement of the consumer's comprehension.

It happened to be useful for Levi's current awakening and advancement of extraordinary characteristics.

After using the Hundred-Year Ice Jade Bodhi Fruit, he should be able to complete the awakening and advancement very quickly, without having to wait for another long six months.

Levi planned to find a safe place to go into isolated cultivation after this matter ended, using the Hundred-Year Ice Jade Bodhi Fruit to advance.

The Tianshan Snow Water rich in magical elements was a natural mana recovery potion.

Its effect was second only to the water from the Spring of Magic in the Elven Kingdom.

Inside the ring, there were also many precious and rare natural treasures that could only be seen in the Extreme North Ice Plains.

Some things Levi could not recognize either; he would have to look through books after returning to find out.

Thinking of this, Levi felt slightly downcast in his heart.

The Tower of Elements choosing to abandon him when facing the Church of Holy Light made Levi feel somewhat uncomfortable.

He could understand the actions of the Tower of Elements.

After all, the Church of Holy Light was far more powerful than the Tower of Elements.

Only if the five top wizard towers united would it be possible to speak on equal terms with the Church of Holy Light.

Relying on the power of a single Tower of Elements alone was far inferior to the Church of Holy Light.

When facing the Church of Holy Light, choosing the lesser of two evils was also normal. According to Lilith, in reality, not everyone within the Tower of Elements chose to abandon him; at least some people were still good to him.

Levi also knew very well who those people were.

The Vice Master and Master of the Hall of Truth were among them.

Even Lilith's teacher, Harros, could be considered one of them.

Perhaps Harros only let Lilith tell him about this matter out of consideration for his status as Torresta's disciple.

Ultimately, the trouble he had stirred up was just too big, and the Tower of Elements could not bear it either.

This could not be blamed on others.

Levi only wanted to see if there was any way to go back.

There were still many acquaintances in the Tower of Elements, and there were also many resources he needed.

"Roar!"

Shengxi let out a low growl to remind Levi, who was lost in thought.

Levi snapped out of it, looked toward the distance, and saw a dark shadow appear on the horizon.

The distance between the two sides was rapidly shrinking.

After getting closer, Levi saw the incomparably massive body of the Emperor of Ice, floating in mid-air like a mountain range, slowly advancing toward him.

Looking down, he saw that the earth behind the Emperor of Ice had whipped up an ice and snow storm that blotted out the sky.

That was not an attack by the Emperor of Ice; it was merely because it passed over the snow plains, causing the ice and snow on the ground to collapse and fly up, turning into a sky full of flying snow and storms rolling along behind the Emperor of Ice.

It was hard to imagine what kind of terrifying might this was.

Standing thousands of miles away, Levi could already feel a heavy pressure rushing toward his face.

He did not dare to get close to the Emperor of Ice.

Patting Shengxi's back, he said, "Maintain your distance, do not get too close to it."

Shengxi nodded; she also felt the pressure.

The Emperor of Ice seemed like a creature that did not belong to this world, crushing across the world with a huge body size that surpassed all living creatures.

The entire world trembled before it.

Levi took out the communication crystal given to him by the Ice Snow Queen, telling her his current location, as well as the advancing direction and speed of the Emperor of Ice.

After the Ice Snow Queen received the message sent back by Levi, a trace of worry appeared in her eyes.

The Emperor of Ice did not seem to be heading for the Ice Snow City.

But the Ice Emperor's colossal form was too massive, and the ice and snow storm it generated as it moved blotted out the sky and sun. Even from a great distance, it posed a tremendous threat to the City of Ice and Snow. The Ice and Snow Queen had no choice but to prepare for the worst-case scenario. If the Ice Emperor were to turn toward the City of Ice and Snow and come crashing down upon it... At this moment, appealing to the gods was her only remaining option. "I hope everything goes smoothly."

While the City of Ice and Snow made preparations for the ritual to honor the deity, an uninvited guest on the snowy plains was quietly drawing near. Levi sat behind Saint Xi, watching the Ice Emperor from afar. At its current pace, the Ice Emperor would pass by the City of Ice and Snow in at most two days. Time was running short for the city.

Back when Otis had planned such a divine ritual, it had taken him over a month to complete. Could the Ice and Snow Queen finish preparing the ceremony in just two short days? Even Levi himself harbored doubts in his heart.

At night, the Ice Emperor floated in midair, absorbing the moon's radiance. The gentle lunar light enveloped its enormous body, making it appear like a floating moon drifting above the snowy plains during the darkness. After leaving the extremely frigid depths, the world had returned to its natural cycle of day and night. Levi and Saint Xi stayed on a distant snow-capped mountain, watching from afar as the halted Ice Emperor remained motionless.
