Chapter 2246 Opening, the fourth floor of the Ice Palace

Lu Long finished speaking.

It also means that this competition has truly come to an end.

There was an uproar all around.

"We were defeated. Even Senior Sister Lu was defeated."

"The most outstanding martial arts monster in the history of our Endless Snow Mountain has actually been defeated."

"How evil is this Xiao Yi?"

One by one, the young geniuses exclaimed in surprise.

The dozens of young women sitting in the Jiange Pavilion had expressions of disbelief on their faces, "Senior Sister, she actually lost?"

At the seats in the Ice Palace, Bing Man and others gritted their teeth, "Even that woman was defeated?"

On the ice crystal competition stage.

Xiao Yi's face straightened and he said, "I wonder when the fourth floor of the Ice Palace will be opened?"

Lu Long replied, "Anytime."

"Is it possible now?" Xiao Yi asked with a frown.

"Of course." Lu Long nodded, "Master Xiao Yi, follow me to the third floor of the Ice Palace."

…

Ice Palace, third floor.

Lu Long, Xia Yifeng, Protector Bing, Protector Nangong, as well as nine elders from both sides, are here.

Besides that, there is Xiao Yi.

"Master Xiao Yi." Xia Yifeng came over and chuckled, "You ended the battle much earlier than I expected."

"Just wait a moment. In a few hours, the fourth floor of the Ice Palace will be fully opened."

In front of others, Xia Yifeng still addressed Xiao Yi as the 'Palace Master'.

"Thank you." Xiao Yigong held his hand.

The third floor of the Ice Palace is where the elder protector can stay.

At this time, the four guardians reached the end of the third floor of the Ice Palace, and all four of them performed hand seals, and an astonishing momentum erupted.

"What a strong momentum." Xiao Yi's eyes were startled.

This time, he was absolutely sure that these four people were quite powerful.

Although these four people are not as high as the eight general hall masters, they are definitely infinitely close.

Among the six black demons, only Wuxinjuzhu can rival these four.

As for Lu Long, his explosive aura even completely overshadowed the level of Wuxin Resident and Changtian Liquor Demon.

On the side, Xia Canglan smiled and said, "The four guardians of my Ice Palace are naturally extremely powerful."

"Otherwise, if I, the Ice Palace, and the Ice Storm Sword Pavilion have the capital to stand proudly in the Central Territory, I won't even dare to offend the hundreds of hidden families."

Xiao Yi smiled and said, "Originally, I thought that the Ice Palace would be at the top of the hidden world at most."

"Now it seems that I have underestimated it far."

"The four guardians alone are probably as powerful as a main palace."

"That's natural." Xia Canglan smiled and said, "The four guardians are the strongest guardians of the Ice Palace and Ice Storm Sword Pavilion."

"The years they have lived are longer than you think."

"Xia Yifeng, the head of the Xia family, is known as the Hermit Master, so there is no need to say more."

"Or let me tell you this way, although the eight general hall masters are powerful, they are just carrying the inheritance of the eight main halls."

"Among them, except for Senior Que Luo, the other seven are probably far less likely to live as long as the four great protectors."

"Oh?" Xiao Yi looked surprised.

Xia Canglan explained, "Master Bing is from the same era as Senior Luo."

"The four founders of Ice Storm Sword Pavilion and my Ice Palace are considered to be a generation below Senior Luo, but the four founders are people from the era of the first generation of the Chief Palace Master."

This is easy to understand, after all, the era of the Six Venerables is earlier than the Eighth Palace.

Xia Canglan continued, "And Protector Lu Long and others, who are the current Protectors, are the second generation of Protectors and are the parents and children of the four founders."

"You can imagine how long they have lived, and how much cultivation they have accumulated over countless years is contained in their bodies."

"Hiss." Xiao Yi took a breath of cold air, "Doesn't that mean the years that the four guardians have lived..."

Xia Canglan waved his hand and interrupted, "The four founders were no longer young when they gave birth to the next generation. They had almost thought of handing over the reins until their end was approaching."

"Therefore, the four current guardians were all born after the end of the ancient times and a long time later."

"But no matter how you calculate it, it is far longer than the years that all the current chief palace masters have lived."

"Of course, the cultivation level of the four guardians is not as good as that of the chief palace masters."

"But apart from these eight current legends, only the four guardians of my lineage, Ice Lord, are the strongest."

Xiao Yi nodded.

The Ice Palace and Ice Storm Sword Pavilion indeed have a long and long heritage, and their heritage is quite astonishing.

These four protectors alone are enough to ensure that the inheritance of these two major forces is long and long, and few people in the world can shake it.

"Come to think of it." Xia Canglan smiled, "Dragon Protector Lu Long is an old man who is arrogant, but he is not unreasonable."

"It's just that on weekdays, even Protector Ice and Protector Nangong can't do anything to him."

"But you impressed him all the time, which is quite impressive."

Xiao Yi smiled and said, "Protector Lu Long is quite a cheerful person."

"It's refreshing." Xia Canglan said with a smile, "This old man only cares about his strength. If he can be recognized, he can say anything."

"This time you enter the fourth floor of the Ice Palace. If this old guy insists on objecting, even I, the head of the Xia family, will not be able to help you."

"Every member of the Lu family has a fierce temperament."

"Oh no, there is another person." Xia Canglan suddenly remembered something and smiled playfully.

"Who?" Xiao Yi asked doubtfully.

Xia Canglan shook his head, "I won't tell you, otherwise this old guy will make trouble for me."

Xiao Yi curled his lips and didn't ask any more questions.

Xia Canglan probably explained the matter of the two major forces to Xiao Yi.

Back then, the Ice Palace was supposed to be inherited by the four major disciples of Lord Ice.

However, later on, the ancestor of the Lu family apparently had disagreements with the other three and had a very fierce temper, so he simply ran away and established his own sect, the Ice Storm Sword Pavilion.

However, even if the opinions are inconsistent, there will not be any hatred between them.

Regarding the inheritance of Bing Zun, the four of them still regard their lives as their own.

The difference between the two sides lies in inheritance.

The differences can also be seen from the differences between Ice Palace and Ice Storm Sword Pavilion.

In the Ice Palace, it is obvious that all the disciples have different methods.

There are the palm path, the sword path, the beast path, the soul path, the body cultivation path, etc.

The Ice Storm Sword Pavilion only follows the path of swordsmanship, which is also the purest form of swordsmanship.

…

Several hours passed by in an instant.

At the end of the third floor of the Ice Palace, the four guardians each made different handprints.

The fourth floor of the Ice Palace really requires the joint efforts of four guardians to open it.

After a while, the four guardians all regained their momentum.

At the end of the third floor of the Ice Palace, a space crack appeared.

"Okay, the fourth floor of the Ice Palace is open, go in." Xia Canglan said.

Xiao Yi nodded, his figure flashed, and he moved to the end of the third floor.

Xia Yifeng looked at the other three people, cupped his hands, and said, "This time, I will enter the fourth floor of the Ice Palace with Master Xiao Yi."

"Huh?" The three of them frowned at the same time.

Xia Yifeng explained, "Next, I need to guide Master Xiao Yi in his future cultivation."

"As a hermit, it's natural for me..."
