During the day, Anka woke up from his deep sleep. This time he felt a pain in his body. He firmly believed that this was not entirely due to the injury suffered yesterday, but a large part of it was probably due to the magic sword.

"Well, even if you haven't fed your soul and body for a day, is your soul and body so tired?"

Then Anka Tijian went out to find the castle owner to discuss whether he could settle here.

"Where do you want to go? The castle master said we can't let you go too far." The soldiers around Scarface stepped forward and said.

"I'm going to find the castle owner."

"The castle master went to clear out the bandits around today." Scarface responded.

"I can still help somewhere."

Scarface thought for a while and decided to take Anka and him together. After all, the bandits would not come crazy to attack the fortress, and even if they did, the remaining defenders could hold out until reinforcements came back.

Soon a cavalry team of more than a dozen people was temporarily formed and began to move towards Bingya Peak in the south.

"Phew, it's going to be even colder here!" Anka tightened his coat and exhaled cold air from his mouth. Even the sweat would freeze as soon as it came into contact with the air. This caused everyone's hair to be covered with a thin layer of ice on their faces.

"It is rumored that there is an artifact hidden in this mountain that can freeze mountains and rivers in an instant, but that is just a legend. No one has actually obtained that artifact yet." Scarface responded with an even colder reason.

"There's a cave there, why not light a fire to warm yourself up!"

Then everyone led the horses into the cave to avoid the snow, while they went deeper into the cave to light a fire to keep warm.

"By the way, how did you get that sword?" Scarface looked at the magic sword in Anka's hand and asked.

After all, in his eyes, how could a slave who almost froze to death in the wild possess such luxurious weapons? They were probably picked up or stolen from the battlefield, but after seeing the terrifying strength of the opponent, he became more aware of the truth.

Confused.

"Well, it's just something I picked up." Anka responded, covering his face that turned red either from lying or from the cold.

In Anka's eyes, the other party may still be wary of him. If he says that this is a magic sword possessed by a demon and it is also the magic sword used by the first emperor, then the other party may have bad ideas.

"Huh? Still warning us!" Scarface quickly realized that this was a lie and kept thinking about the other party's true identity.

After resting for a while, the wind and snow outside also subsided a little. After drinking and eating, everyone got on their horses and started back on the road. After arriving at the foot of Bingya Peak, Scarface reminded: "Bandits are entrenched here, so be careful.

"

"Why can't you see the fortress master's team?" Anka asked doubtfully, facing the quiet Bingya Peak.

"Bingya Peak is huge overall. It may be on the other side, or it may have gone in to fight the bandits." Scarface responded.

Then everyone entered the interior of Bingya Peak through the narrow mountain path they found. Strangely, there was still no obstruction nearby.

When approaching a small, dim position of the bandits, everyone discovered that the ground and cliffs here were covered with cold ice. It stands to reason that large-scale freezing should not occur out of thin air in this kind of cave, and the freezing phenomenon is still continuing.

External expansion.

Everyone tied cloth to their shoes to prevent them from slipping and then started to move deeper. In a huge hall, they were surprised to find the castle owner and his team fighting eight giant icemen.

Those ice men are about three meters tall. Each of their attacks has the power to easily destroy boulders. The cold breath they exhale can easily freeze a living creature.

The castle owner and his soldiers, wearing heavy armor and holding maces, kept fighting the icemen. Although their attacks could destroy the icemen's limbs, the icemen recovered much faster.

Scarface looked at Anka with some worry. After all, he had never thought that a monster like the Iceman would appear. The light-armored soldiers he carried would simply die if he attacked.

Anka seemed to notice his worries and stepped forward and said, "I want to go up and try."

Anka was thinking to see what use the souls of these monsters would have for the magic sword. If it was useful, he wouldn't need to search for those bad guys to absorb the souls to satisfy the magic sword and improve himself.

Anka jumped into the middle of the hall with a magic sword and split an iceman from top to bottom, but the iceman quickly recovered and attacked Anka.

Anka dodged and tried to attack in various ways. During this period, Anka split an iceman with force and other icemen surrounded him to cover.

"Looks like they're all going to be wiped out at once!"

Then he burned all over and used more power to make the magic sword burn with blazing fire, and he also became a little hungry due to the rapid consumption.

Then Anka waved the magic sword like a ghost, and the flames spit out by the magic sword enveloped the ice people and roared with the fire attack of a ready-made fire dragon.

All the ice men attacked by the magic sword were melted into a large pool of liquid and did not recover. Soon the surroundings were filled with steam generated by the flames evaporating the ice men.

After that, all the icemen turned into large pieces of liquid and steam. Anka stood in the water and restored the magic sword to normal. Anka was surprised to find that the ice blue souls of the icemen were extracted from the liquid and gathered into the magic sword.

And in Anka's body.

In the eyes of others, Anka just now was more terrifying than what he had seen before. Anka had just shown power like the legendary demon god, and even these powerful ice men did not make him feel difficult.

Just when Anka was excited, a cold arrow shot out of his right arm. This made Anka very surprised and the magic sword slipped from his right hand due to the pain.

Then came several more cold arrows, but this time Anka was prepared and easily dodged it, grabbed an arrow and threw it back, and then a loud shout came from the shadows.

The leader of the bandits slowly walked out of the shadows and broke off the arrows on his body. When everyone saw the leader appearing, they stepped forward to arrest him.

The castle master led his warriors to surround the leader in a semicircle step by step. The spears and shields were pointed at the leader in front while the crossbowmen behind also defended the opponent.

The leader sneered and took out a transparent crystal embedded in a silver ring from his arms and placed it in front of the torch. In an instant, most of the soldiers standing in front were frozen in place by the light reflected by the magic mirror.

The castle owner then ordered the others to spread out to avoid the light and shoot. The leader threw the magic mirror on his head and suspended it. Then the reflected light froze the entire hall and most of the soldiers. The people who were not frozen did not know why.

Feeling very tired.

"It's really unexpected that such destiny would appear to disrupt the situation."

The leader stepped forward to pick up the magic sword and took out a one-way mirror-style magic prop. He observed and commented in his mind: "On the outside, it looks like a one-handed straight sword made by a skilled craftsman, but at its core, it has two

The soul that comes from the sea of ​​souls”.

While the leader was making an evaluation, Anka suddenly stood up and punched the leader away. The leader then hit the wall hard. But just when the leader was about to use the weapon he had just obtained, his own hand burned, which made him helpless.

Don't throw away the magic sword in your hand.

Then Anka took advantage of the victory and punched the leader, and soon blood oozed from the leader's body.

It stands to reason that a normal person should die in pain due to broken spine and shattered internal organs in the first punch, but the leader in front of him took several punches and still didn't die, which made Anka a little confused.

Just when Anka was stunned, the leader directly distanced himself and used a magic mirror to freeze Anka. Anka's movements began to slow down after being illuminated by a strange light.

"That's enough. I was really unlucky this time. I thought it would be okay with the Iceman..." As he spoke, the leader walked around Anka and limped towards the exit.

Just as the leader was about to walk out, an arrow was suddenly shot behind him by the castle owner. While the leader was cursing and seeking death, he turned back to freeze the person who shot the arrow.

However, because the strange light left Anka's side when the leader was escaping, Anka was able to recover. Just when the leader turned around, Anka jumped over and punched the leader away, then sat on top of him and punched him hard.

When the opponent fainted, Anka picked up the magic sword and planned to harvest his soul.

"Ahem, let's interrogate him first." The castle owner said while holding on to the wall.

Although Anka was a little disappointed, he thought that since he had confirmed that the monster's soul could be absorbed, the other party would be of no use to him.

So he obeyed the castle master's request and tied up the leader with a rope. Then the two sat on chairs in the hall and lit some bonfires to wait for everyone to thaw.

Then Anka looked at the magic mirror and thought: "If there is a demon in it, it will be troublesome!"

"Can I destroy this?" Anka tilted his head and looked at the castle master and asked.

The castle owner was so surprised that he couldn't speak for a moment. At this moment, his mind was spinning rapidly: "Why should it be destroyed? Is it because it is not needed or because you don't dare to use it? Or do you want to stimulate me to come forward and ask for some terms with me?"

"It's a pity that it was destroyed. Just leave it to me. I'll give it to the craftsmen in the royal city and let them try to recreate it. After all, this is a very powerful treasure." The castle owner said this but was still worried in his heart.

The other party will not agree, but in order to increase the possibility of getting the treasure, I have prepared many conditions that the other party should not refuse.

"It seems they do need it, but if there is really a demon inside, will it hurt them?"

After thinking for a while, Anka wrapped the magic mirror in a rag to prevent the strange light from suddenly appearing inside again. After saying a few words of caution, Anka handed it to the castle owner.

"Please let me know if something goes wrong and I'll just ruin this."

"certainly!"
