Chapter 467: Ice God Mountain
```
Outside Ice God Mountain.
Above the snowy landscape.
Seeing Ye Chen, the Little Provincial Princess, and over five thousand others flying into the teleportation array and completely entering the assessment area of the front half of Ice God Mountain, Lan Xi God King smiled and flew back to the side of Divine Venerable Hong Zhu, God King Wucan, and God King Lei Yun, the three great powerhouses.
"The seven-day assessment period, I wonder how many of this batch of youngsters will acquire the qualifications to enter the third training ground this time," Lan Xi God King said, her gaze towards the Extreme Heaven Spirit List floating in the void.
God King Wucan and God King Lei Yun glanced at Divine Venerable Hong Zhu and laughed, "Anyway, the Little Provincial Princess and Ye Chen have already scored more than enough to meet the requirements to enter the third training ground. Those two will definitely make it."
"The four young descendants of the four great generals are also very close to the thousand-point assessment requirement. Given their strength, it should be easy for them to break into the third training ground."
"Others will depend on their combat power and fortune!"
Divine Venerable Hong Zhu's beautiful eyes also gazed towards the Extreme Heaven Spirit List.
At this moment, as over five thousand warriors officially began their assessment, their scores on the Extreme Heaven Spirit List began to change.
Jumping and shifting dynamically.
The battles against the Ice Wing Tribe didn't proceed like the previous assessments, where results were counted after the assessments and then integrated into the Extreme Heaven Spirit List by the spirit child.
In this combat, when eliminating opponents, their assessment points would instantly display on the black cards in the warriors' hands and show directly on the Extreme Heaven Spirit List.
Although the detailed assessment inside Ice God Mountain remained unseen, by observing the numerical changes in assessment points on the Extreme Heaven Spirit List, Divine Venerable Hong Zhu and the others could gauge the situation of these warriors' assessments.
Divine Venerable Hong Zhu's gaze rested continuously on the assessment scores of Ye Chen and Fang Luo, the Little Provincial Princess, who were ranked in the top two.
She murmured to herself, "Entering the third training ground shouldn't be a problem. But I wonder to what extent Luo'er and Ye Chen will manage in this trial, with True God Hunters chasing them."
"Will they continue to expand their leading advantage in assessment points or even manage to take one or two red cards from the hands of True God Hunters to exchange for special treasures left by Lord Tianyun, or will they be eliminated early by the True God Hunters?" Stay updated through empire
The actual assessment was unpredictable with countless variations; everything would depend on their actual combat preparations and reactions.
Divine Venerable Hong Zhu also couldn't predict to what extent the Little Provincial Princess and Ye Chen would succeed.
All she could do was wait outside. Just wait.
...
Ice God Mountain.
Inside the Ice Wing Tribe's residential area of the back half of the mountain.
Here, one could see numerous huge screens spanning across several voids behind the mountains of Ice God Mountain.
Countless Ice Wing Tribespeople scattered across these realms were watching the enormous screens between the voids.
Among these tribespeople were children who had not yet started cultivating, young boys and girls who had just reached the True Qi Realm or Spirit Sea Realm, and even Ice Wing Tribe warriors who were at the Rotating Pill Realm, Heavenly Saint Realm, or True God Realm.
They watched the names and white card numbers of the fifty thousand Ice Wing Tribespeople who had entered the assessment area of the front half of the mountain shown on the screens, as well as the names of the ten True God Hunters.
At that time, these Ice Wing Tribespeople were intently watching the screens and chatting.
"Our Ice Wing Tribe once again faces combat against external warriors," they said.
"Last time, our tribe sent out fifty thousand warriors, and in the end, thirty of them accumulated enough to have the opportunity to go to the Divine Kingdom to follow Lord Tianyun for training!"
"This time, who knows how many more will succeed in earning the chance to train under Lord Tianyun in the Divine Kingdom, and how many can endure to the end!"
Some of the extremely powerful eight-tribulation and nine-tribulation True Gods among the Ice Wing Tribe were even more keen-eyed: "Other than cultivating to the Divine King Realm and being taken away by Lord Tianyun, our tribe members can only be recognized by Lord Tianyun by accumulating achievements in battle against external warriors."
"This time, those selected from our tribe are either the promising descendants or strong Heavenly Saints, including the ten True God Hunters, who are both potential and powerful warriors of our tribe."
"Let's hope they seize this opportunity!"
The children and young boys and girls of the Ice Wing Tribe were even more captivated by the stories of their elders, their eyes sparkling as they looked up at the names on the massive screens: "These are the strong warriors of our Ice Wing Tribe entering the battle?"
"When I grow up, I also want to participate in this battle, representing our Ice Wing Tribe to face those external warriors!"
...
Ye Chen was unaware that his and the other warriors' performances were under constant scrutiny by Divine Venerable Hong Zhu, Lan Xi God King, and the other four powerhouses.
Ye Chen was also unaware that their opponents, the Ice Wing Tribe, also had countless tribespeople following the combat situation of their members.
At this moment, after the teleportation, Ye Chen had arrived inside an ice cave in the assessment area at the front half of Ice God Mountain.
Cold.
Bone-chilling cold!
This was Ye Chen's first impression upon entering Ice God Mountain.
```
This feeling was even more direct than the cold in the ice and snow outside.
The temperature here could absolutely freeze the energy channels of countless low-level martial artists, shatter their skin, bones, and cells, and severely damage their souls!
After experiencing this extreme cold for a while, Ye Chen stimulated his True Qi, transforming it into protective light, keeping the piercing cold out.
"Within the Ice Divine Mountain, it's a trial of True Qi techniques, where only True Qi methods can be used in battle. Physical and spiritual techniques are prohibited."
As soon as he entered the Ice Divine Mountain, Ye Chen sensed that his physical strength and spiritual probing methods were both restrained.
Thinking back to the first assessment area "Dragon's Lair" where only physical strength could be used, Ye Chen understood.
Each battle area corresponded to a training area, he had just completed his True Qi training, so it seemed that here they were assessing the achievements of his True Qi cultivation.
Ye Chen took a deep breath and instantly transformed into an unbelievable streak of light, flying towards the front.
True Qi methods.
For an assessment like this, Ye Chen was not afraid!
True Qi methods were always Ye Chen's strongest, in the past, he could compete with late-stage Heavenly Saints using True Qi methods. Now, after training in the "Thousand Leaf Stage's Sea of Rules," just the number of Rotating Pills increased from four hundred and five to nine hundred and ninety-nine, eventually fusing into an even more powerful Taiyuan Divine Pill!
Not to mention his realm, which also upgraded from the mid Rotating Pill Realm to the late Rotating Pill Realm!
Now, Ye Chen's True Qi methods, though still not enough to overcome those True Gods, he was absolutely not afraid of anyone in the Heavenly Saint Realm!
As for True Gods?
Now that True Qi methods could be used, Ye Chen could finally use those two True Phoenixes and True God Talismans given to him by Mu Lan True God!
Plus, with the Ice Snow Jade Pendant, a space mystical artifact, even if he couldn't defeat the True God Hunter from the Ice Wing Tribe this time, Ye Chen was confident he could escape!
Even facing those True God Hunters was not out of the question!
Ye Chen flew rapidly through the icy caves within the "Ice Divine Mountain," the deeper he went, the more he felt the vastness of the assessment area of the Ice Divine Mountain.
From the outside, Ye Chen had previously looked down at the entire Ice Divine Mountain and felt that it was as massive as a starry continent.
Now, truly inside, flying in the endless white icy caves, encountering new cave openings and passages intermittently, Ye Chen felt like it was an endless labyrinth.
But Ye Chen did not need to recognize directions. He knew that since this was an assessment area, the fifty thousand members of the Ice Wing Tribe that entered would surely encounter him.
While flying, Ye Chen had the spirit child "Sixty-Two" following him, observing the surroundings, and he also paid attention to the resonance of the black badge on his body.
After entering the "Ice Divine Mountain," his spiritual probing was no longer usable, but he still had other methods to stay aware of the situation inside.
Hum! Hum! Hum!
A short while after Ye Chen started flying, his black badge vibrated softly, and at the same time, the spirit child "Sixty-Two" immediately spoke up, "Master, there are members of the Ice Wing Tribe nearby! It's a mid-stage Heavenly Saint martial artist!"
"Hahaha, it's actually a late-stage Rotating Pill outsider martial artist!"
When Ye Chen sensed the presence of a member of the Ice Wing Tribe, a middle-aged warrior of the tribe with snow-white ice wings behind him also had his eyes flash with a sharp light as he sensed Ye Chen.
He burst towards the direction he sensed Ye Chen at in an instant.
In just a few breaths, he flew into Ye Chen's line of sight.
This mid-stage Heavenly Saint warrior from the Ice Wing Tribe immediately had an Ice Divine Saber appear in his hand, and with a cold glint in his eye, he vanished in a flash, reappearing before Ye Chen the next moment, bringing down a slash towards Ye Chen.
Ye Chen just shook his head and smiled.
As the saber from the Ice Wing Tribe's mid-stage Heavenly Saint warrior came slashing towards his neck, Ye Chen made his move.
Whiz.
It was just a spark of fire.
In the next instant, the middle-aged warrior felt his Ice Divine Saber engulfed by an overwhelming fiery force, and a spark of flame piercing straight towards his skull.
He had no chance to dodge, and instantly his white badge fell off his body, and he was teleported out of the assessment area.
This meant that without the white badge warding off a deathly blow, the member of the Ice Wing Tribe would have died by Ye Chen's hand!
Whiz!
Ye Chen reached out and captured the mid-stage Heavenly Saint's white badge in his hand.
A mid-stage Heavenly Saint warrior?
Before he even entered the "Thousand Leaf Stage's Sea of Rules" for training, Ye Chen could easily kill such characters.
How much more now!
His power from the Five Great Divine Arts had improved from its original two or three tenths to almost the perfect nine tenths, just shy of completing the divine arts.
Killing this middle-stage Heavenly Saint from the Ice Wing Tribe was now as easy as crushing an ant!
