Chapter 2259 Deterioration

"Um?"

Xiao Yi looked at the smile on the corner of Lord Bing's spiritual consciousness, and his body suddenly trembled.

But in an instant, it was clear that he did not feel any discomfort from this smile, or in other words... half fear.

"Senior, you..." Xiao Yi frowned.

This feeling is so different.

Comparing his narrow escape in the extremely cold and dangerous areas of the Eastern Territory and the feeling he had when he encountered that spiritual consciousness, the difference is too huge.

Lord Bing's spiritual consciousness smiled, "Although I am only a Taoist spiritual consciousness, I am not a fool."

"To enter the space of the Ice Palace, in addition to breaking through the secrets of the fourth floor of the Ice Palace, you also need the Palace Token, which is the token that is always hanging on your waist."

"To get this token, prove that you have seen the true body outside."

"Original body?" Xiao Yi asked in confusion.

"Yes." The Ice Lord nodded with his spiritual sense, "To be precise, the one you meet outside is the real Ice Lord."

"And I am just a piece of spiritual consciousness forcibly separated by Lord Ice more than ten million years ago."

"I have all the memories of Lord Ice, and I have exactly the same character and thoughts as him. I can be considered a part of him, but I don't have any cultivation. I am just a palace spirit guarding Ice Lord Palace."

"Perhaps the only difference is that I am purer than the original body."

Xiao Yi listened carefully, cautiously and thoughtfully, without interrupting.

The Spiritual Consciousness of Lord Bing continued, "The moment you came into Bingzun Hall and saw me, you immediately looked panic-stricken, as if you had seen some evil ghost."

"Proof." Lord Bing's spiritual consciousness suddenly strengthened his tone, and there was also a touch of sadness between his brows.

After a pause, he continued, "Proof that you must have seen the true form when you were outside."

"As for the true body, he has changed his nature and will even have a life-and-death struggle with you."

"Since you have obtained the palace order, it proves that you killed the original body, although I don't know what method you used."

"And the moment you entered the Bing Zun Palace, you must have been in an inexplicable panic, thinking that my spiritual consciousness was not dead yet, and that I was waiting for you here, and even wanted to take your life here."

Xiao Yi's face was startled, and at the same time he was also a little surprised.

He finally understood what was going on with the spiritual consciousness in front of him.

However, just judging from the few words and explanations of this spiritual consciousness today, the Ice Lord back then must have been a thoughtful and extraordinary person.

He had not had much conversation with this spiritual consciousness before.

But this spiritual consciousness had guessed all of this in the simple meeting before, and even guessed what he was thinking at that time.

And this spiritual consciousness has exactly the same personality and thoughts as Lord Bing's body.

The Ice Lord back then must have been a more mentally powerful person than Senior Luo.

"Deterioration?" Xiao Yi then expressed doubts.

"Yes." Lord Ice nodded with his spiritual sense, "When my body separated from me, the end was actually approaching."

"To be precise, it's not really in danger; but the sky is indeed almost falling."

"The main body left me here, firstly to guard the Ice Lord Palace, and secondly, to leave an existence with all his memories and thoughts exactly in case something unexpected happens."

"The main body will find a way on its own."

As he said that, Lord Bing smiled with his spiritual consciousness, "But today, since you appear here, it proves that not only did he not find a way, but he also died."

"Tell me about your encounter with the original body."

When Xiao Yi heard this, he was surprised for a while, but he still told all the things he encountered in the extremely cold and dangerous place.

There is nothing to hide about these things.

"That's it." Lord Bing nodded with his spiritual sense.

Xiao Yi said seriously, "A long time ago, I had doubts."

"My impression of Senior Bing Zun back then was that he was evil and gloomy, and he was a vicious man with monstrous means."

"But after I came to the Central Territory, especially after I really entered the Central Territory, after I stepped into Xinghuan City, and before I arrived at Fangcun City, I started to hear a lot of amazing stories about the Six Venerables of Yanlong."

"Among them, Senior Bing Zun is the most famous."

"And the deeds I heard about, even if tens of millions of years have passed, are still like ancient legends, and they are respected by everyone and have excellent reputations."

"The word "Bing Zun" is more like a legendary master and a respected senior."

"I was wondering at that time, could it be that Lord Ice's real city is so deep that he can hide his true identity from countless creatures and powerful men in the Central Region? Even after tens of millions of years, no one has discovered his true identity?"

"Hahahaha." Lord Bing's spiritual consciousness laughed a few times, "You kid, you really dare to say anything."

"The original body back then did have a good reputation, but it wasn't that everyone admired it."

"Although this Middle Territory is full of killings and is ruthless, before the word warrior, the word human needs to be added."

"Human beings have a certain humanity after all. No matter how high up the mountain they are, no matter how independent they are, there are still some things that should be taken care of."

"Something? What?" Xiao Yi asked.

Lord Ice shook his head with his spiritual consciousness, "You are not qualified to know now."

"When you walk through the windy and snowy Netherworld Road, I will consider whether to tell you."

Xiao Yi nodded and asked, "Then... I killed you back then..."

Lord Bing's spiritual sense face twitched, "You didn't kill me, you killed the main body."

"I told you, his true form has changed."

"Sigh." Lord Ice sighed, "According to what you said before, he must have gone through a very difficult time in his true form."

"Back then, he failed to find a way and died in the Eastern Region. He could not return to the Central Region with the help of spiritual stones alone, and was even trapped in the depths of that windy and dangerous place."

"For thousands of years, I watched my body decay bit by bit and was helpless. I watched my body turn into white bones and I was helpless."

"I'm afraid it's hard to describe the feeling."

"I have been lonely for thousands of years, alone in the wind, snow and cold, and only see darkness and coldness all year round. Even if it is as strong as the tenacious Taoist heart of the original body, I am afraid that I will not be able to bear it."

"Fang Ye has just become like that evil ghost."

"Boy." Lord Bing looked at Xiao Yi seriously with his spiritual consciousness, "If he has not deteriorated in his true form, he will not blame you for this matter."

"It's better to kill him, so as not to become a legacy."

"Now that the matter is clear, is your sword heart still a little light?"

"How should I put it?" Xiao Yi smiled awkwardly, "I didn't feel any guilt when I killed you, so it's not considered the sword's heart being dusted."

Looking at Lord Bing's spiritual consciousness's darkened face, Xiao Yi changed his words and said, "Oh no, I'm going to kill your body."

"However, after entering this place, if I want to wait for your opportunity and gifts, I haven't made it clear yet. Instead, my heart is not smooth, and my sword's heart is half dim."

"Now that I've explained it, and senior doesn't care about me, I naturally won't think too much about it."

"Yes." Lord Bing nodded with his spiritual sense, "Although I have practiced many disciplines, my methods are unpredictable in the eyes of outsiders."

"But I am also a swordsman after all."

"I can feel the resonance of the extremely transparent sword heart in your body."

"Let's start walking on this snowy and dark road."

"Okay." Xiao Yi nodded, his eyes suddenly turned cold.
