“Wait a minute!” Suddenly, Fang Lin called out loudly from behind.
Yang Pojun stopped in his tracks and turned around, his face full of confusion. He was already gearing up for an all-out battle with these Ice Puppets. What did they have to wait for now?
Fang Lin smiled slightly, “It’s just nine puppets. We don’t need to move heaven and earth to handle them. I alone am enough.”
Hearing this, Yang Qingyao, who had always had a contemptuous attitude towards Fang Lin, scoffed, “Do you know how to talk without exaggeration?”
Fang Lin ignored Yang Qingyao, reaching into his Nine Palace Bag and pulling out the black Boundless Stone.
Upon seeing the Boundless Stone, Qing Jianzi immediately understood and a smile spread across his face, suggesting he knew everything was under control.
Others, who had never seen the object in Fang Lin’s hand, were all curious.
“What are you doing with this broken stone? Do you plan to kill all those puppets with this stone?” Yang Qingyao asked in a mocking tone.
Fang Lin replied seriously, “You’re right, I’m going to bash them to death with it.”
Yang Qingyao nearly laughed out loud, thinking that Fang Lin was utterly unreliable.
The others also looked puzzled, all thinking that Fang Lin was overselling. What could this broken stone do?
Without further explanation, Fang Lin noticed Yang Pojun still standing in a daze. He urged, “You better move. It won’t be good if the stone hits you.”
Yang Pojun, speechless, came back. His facial expression really weird.
Fang Lin chuckled, drawing back his hand, with Inner Strength quietly pouring into the Boundless Stone. Once he felt the stone getting lighter, he knew it was ready.
“Go!” Fang Lin yelled, and he viciously threw the Boundless Stone.
Whoosh!
A gust of wind came along. The Boundless Stone turned into a streak of light, hitting the first Ice Puppet directly.
With a thud, the Ice Puppet crumbled, delicate as paper.
The Boundless Stone did not stop, continuing to fly towards the back of them.
Thump! Thump! Thump! Thump!
The sound of continuous impacts echoed as one Ice Puppet after another was smashed by the Boundless Stone. No ice puppet could withstand it.
The hardy Ice Puppets seemed as vulnerable as tofu in front of the Boundless Stone.
Then, the Boundless Stone fell on the icy plains, causing a deafening noise. The floor beneath their feet began to shake violently, feeling like an earthquake.
Cracks began to spread from where the Boundless Stone had landed, making it seem as though the entire icy plain was about to crumble.
With a wave of his hand, Fang Lin summoned the Boundless Stone back into his grasp with a swoosh.
Looking again, the nine Ice Puppets had been reduced to a pile of crushed ice shards.
Everyone, except Qing Jianzi, was stunned. Their eyes wide in disbelief, as if they had just seen a monster.
Especially Yang Qingyao, whose face was full of disbelief. She’d been scoffing at Fang Lin’s bravado, but then he had shattered all nine Ice Puppets in the blink of an eye.
This was like a resounding slap to Yang Qingyao’s face, and a loud one at that.
Yang Pojun was also shocked. The unobtrusive black stone was so terrifying. Especially when it fell to the ground, it felt like a mountain was crushing down. Only Qing Jianzi wasn’t surprised. He had previously seen the power of Fang Lin using the Boundless Stone, so he wasn’t too astonished.
The rest of the people took quite a while to react, looking at the Boundless Stone in Fang Lin’s hand with awe and envy in their eyes.
Fang Lin grinned, looking pleased with himself, and put the Boundless Stone back into the Nine Palace Bag.
Some people glanced at Yang Qingyao, seeing her face change from red to green. When she noticed their sly looks, she quickly scolded, “What are you looking at?”
Those people immediately looked away, but they couldn’t help but laugh under their breath.
Yang Pojun coughed, shooting a dissatisfied glance at Yang Qingyao. His own cousin, when will she ever learn? If Fang Lin dares to say so, he must have some method. Now look, Fang Lin shows off his prowess, and you, Yang Qingyao, are the one who’s disgraced, right?
Yang Qingyao was regretting it a bit at this moment. She had disliked Fang Lin all the way, but he ignored her grievances repeatedly. This made her look petty.
However, being a princess, Yang Qingyao was inherently arrogant. Therefore, even though she regretted her actions internally, she wouldn’t openly acknowledge it.
“With this little distraction out of the way, let’s take a look at what this so-called Ice Emperor’s palace is all about,” Fang Lin suggested, beckoning everyone to move on.
Immediately, the group moved past the location. After walking for a while, another nine Ice Puppets appeared.
“What the…? They’re back?” Fang Lin asked Qing Jianzi, puzzled.
Qing Jianzi explained, “The Ice Puppets aren’t just a one-time wave. There should be about five waves. The last wave of Ice Puppets will increase to eighteen.”
Upon hearing this, Fang Lin retained his laid-back demeanor. No matter how many there were, he was going to smash them all with his stone.
Immediately, Fang Lin threw the Boundless Stone again, efficiently destroying all nine Ice Puppets.
Thus, the group managed to get past the Ice Puppets smoothly, with hardly any obstacles. Even when the final wave of Ice Puppets increased in numbers, they were no match for the terrifying Boundless Stone in Fang Lin’s hand.
Eventually, the crowd grew accustomed to Fang Lin’s method. They journeyed through the perilous area jovially, as if on a picnic rather than a dangerous expedition.
Finally, a majestic palace loomed before their eyes. It was so grandiose that it could only be described as a miracle.
“Oh my God!” Fang Lin exclaimed, eyes wide in awe as he looked at the exquisite palace in front of him. He was utterly amazed.
The other members were equally stunned, as if they had entered a whole new world. They were unable to verbalize what they were witnessing.
The entirely ice-constructed palace stood at the end of the ice valley, exuding grandeur. Above the palace, snow fell from the sky, creating a curtain of white.
In front of the Ice Palace stood five life-like ice sculptures, each as tall as mountains. To see them clearly, the crowd had to crane their necks.
The sight of these five ice sculptures alone left them breathless.
The five sculptures seemed to contain immense power, standing in front of the Ice Palace like imperial guards protecting a capital, guarding the palace behind them.
No one could utter a word, as if all sound was muffled by the snowstorm. Even their breaths sounded extraordinarily faint.
Fang Lin suddenly felt something wrong, a sensation of uneasiness.
“Not good! My Inner Strength is being suppressed!” Instantly, Fang Lin checked within and indeed, his Inner Strength seemed to have been sealed by some force, as he couldn’t mobilize it at all.
