Chapter 242 The Secret of the Ice Palace
Zhou An looked at the two ministers and said with a smile: "The gods did not tell you all the truth. Five thousand years ago, the gods came to our continent from outside and tried to enslave all races, so they provoked a war of all races.
Later, they were attacked by all races. When the defeat was decided, they used some weapon to break the Kaiyuan Continent and became the current Kaiyuan and Jiuzhou Continents, as well as many large islands.
It also caused the spiritual energy in our world to disperse. After three thousand years of cultivation, the gods made a comeback. A few days ago, the Qianyuan Empire killed the gods in the Jiuzhou Continent. You should be able to see that battle. The light generated by the explosion shone on the entire Jiuzhou Continent.
Now the Kaiyuan God Clan is unwilling to give up and sends people to fight with me. He does not dare to fight directly with me, so he uses these tricks to provoke the rebellion of the Ice and Snow Empire and fund you combat robots to deal with Qianyuan.
Everyone present is good at scheming, and these tricks should not be difficult to see through. They should have come to your gods and did not explain all the information to you. They just promised to give you the power to destroy me, the demon emperor, right?
If they really have this ability, why do they still have to look for you?"
Now Qi Yan and Yu She's faces became even more ugly. They were both smart people. As long as they knew all the information, the gods could naturally see through this method.
The two of them knelt down suddenly, Qi Yan kowtowed and said, "Your Majesty, the guilty minister knows his mistake, and he deserves to die. I beg the emperor to spare his family members. I am willing to accept the final punishment."
Yu She also said the same thing. They knew they would die and just hoped to save their families. Even if they didn't, extermination of clans was better than extermination of nine clans.
"Now you can say where are the remnants of these gods? I can record your merits, reduce your crimes, and spare the implicated people." Zhou Jingrong said.
The two showed helpless expressions and said, "It was the gods who came to the criminals. They never told them whereabouts, and they didn't even know whether they were in the Ice City.
When they came to the Sin Chen and showed the strength of these guards to the Sin Chen, it was difficult for even the innate ninth level cultivators to break their bodies.
And they told the guards that they had a legion, and the criminals dared to commit such a serious crime."
"You are all the same?" Zhou Jingrong asked in a glance at the audience.
"Yes, I am aware of the crime, please forgive me." All the rebel ministers knelt down and kowtowed and answered in unison.
Zhou Jingrong looked at Zhou An and asked, "What do Emperor Qianyuan thinks he should deal with it?"
"The gods are handed over to me. The fourth sister will handle the matters in the Ice and Snow Empire. Now I should not interfere."
After Zhou An finished speaking, he stood up and said to the officials: "You all know the strength of the Qianyuan Empire. I know that the rumor of the Jiuzhou is now rumored that Qianyuan will unify the Jiuzhou and will not let any country go.
I will tell you here that this is not a rumor, but a fact. Only by unifying the Jiuzhou can we avoid war and gather our strength to compete with the Kaiyuan Continent.
The university of Qianyuan Empire is aimed at the people. If the Ice and Snow Empire joins, it will naturally be the people of Qianyuan. All the people can practice immortal martial arts. Don’t you want your descendants to enter the innate world and live for thousands of years? Is it a blessing for future generations?"
All the officials were really moved. Even if the Ice and Snow Empire and Jiuxuan Mountain were closely related, it would be impossible to teach these ministers how to practice the exercises. If they wanted to cultivate immortals, they could only dream.
Many ministers want to send their descendants to Jiuxuan Mountain, but that is not a matter of words. They have no extraordinary talent. Not to mention Jiuxuan Mountain, even other small sects will not accept it.
Now when I hear that there is a chance, no one is not moved. Among human desires, life ranks first, followed by strength, third, power, and followed by a series of emotions such as money and beauty.
Who doesn’t want to cultivate immortality to obtain the first three kinds?
At this time, Zhou Jingrong said, "Who else is there any opposition to the incorporation of Bingzhou into Qianyuan?"
"I agree." All officials agreed.
Zhou An stood up and said, "Very good. Since you agree, you are all ministers of Qianyuan. The emperor now appoints Zhou Jingrong as the Queen of Ice and Snow, managing the entire Bingzhou. All personnel arrangements in Bingzhou are under the control of the Queen of Ice and Snow."
"Emperor! Qianyuan has not yet been named a king. I am afraid that I, a woman, will not be suitable?" Zhou Jingrong was worried that she would break the rules and let Qianyuan fight in internal conflict.
Zhou An smiled and said, "The fourth sister does not need to worry. In the Qianyuan Empire, men and women will be treated equally. Any position can be occupied by those who can do it. After Bingzhou was merged into Qianyuan, our emperor will announce the world and be named King of Jiuzhou, Youzhou, Haizhou, Longzhou, Yuanzhou, and Sizhou. If anyone responds, I can help him become a king."
Hearing this, all the officials were shocked, but they knew that the current strength of the Qianyuan Empire was qualified to do so.
No matter which country is now, if Qianyuan wants to attack, they will definitely surrender, and the gap in strength between the two sides is too big.
Not to mention a country, any demon general in the Qianyuan Empire can destroy small and medium-sized countries, and the generals are enough to solve the problem of a big country.
Not to mention that there are many powerful people in Qianyuan, I am afraid that all the top sects in Jiuzhou will not dare to compete with it.
You should know that within the Qianyuan Empire, those evil demons who practice human blood or spirit either escape or modify other techniques can't survive in Qianyuan.
Even if you can withstand the siege of the Soul-Status, as well as powerful people like the Demon Division, Ghost Division, and Cultivation Heart Pavilion, even the powerful people in the Demon Realm cannot withstand the siege of so many people, and you cannot do it without leaving.
It can be seen how powerful Qianyuan is now.
"Then it's settled. You sirs are going to contact and merge with the left prime minister of Qianyuan Zhou Di." Zhou Jingrong gave the order, and all the officials bowed and accepted the order.
After retreating from the court, Zhou An asked Zhou Jingrong to take him around the palace, which made Zhou Jingrong and Yulian both wonder what was good about the palace, but Zhou An suggested that they all accompanied him.
Knowing that the Ice and Snow Palace is extraordinary, how could he miss such a good sign-in location?
After walking here, all the surface maps will be lit up, rewarding Ice Soul Spirit Crystal, Ice Snow Emperor Robe, Snow Phoenix Wing, Ice Soul Divine Needle, Ice Emperor Divine Sword, Ice Emperor Heart Skill, and some inferior materials, but they are also top-grade refining materials.
The Ice Soul Spirit Crystal is the top material for refining ice-type fairy treasures. Combined with the previous 100,000-year-old Xuan Ice Essence Crystal, it will definitely be able to refine ice-type fairy treasures. As for the level, it depends on the skill of the weapon refiner.
The Ice and Snow Emperor Robe is a top-quality fairy treasure. The system introduction is an immortal treasure personally refined by the ancient Ice Emperor. It is a symbol of the throne of the Ice Emperor.
Then Xuehuangyi and Ice Soul Divine Needle are both top-grade immortal treasures and also the famous treasures of the Ice Emperor back then.
In the end, the Ice Emperor Divine Sword is a symbol of the Ice Emperor's identity, and it is the best fairy treasure. Once the Ice Emperor Divine Sword comes out, it will be frozen for thousands of miles.
The last Ice Emperor’s Heart Art is the Ice Emperor’s practice technique, which can only be practiced by people with ice-based physique.
Zhou An didn't know what kind of person Ice Emperor was. There was no record of the person Ice Emperor in Qianyuan's history, but the systematic introduction shows that the Ice Emperor really existed and was also a top figure at that time.
Back at the palace where Zhou Jingrong lives, only Zhou Jingrong, Yulian and Zhou An were left in the hall.
Yulian then said, "Jingrong, you are the master's sister. I will tell you that my real name is Yulian, and Jiuxuan is my sister's name. The reason I will tell you later."
"Master?" Zhou Jingrong was shocked. In her mind, the master was the top powerful person in the world. It should be more important than Zhou An.
Yulian glanced at Zhou An and said calmly: "I am his servant god and also her Taoist partner."
"Ah!" Zhou Jingrong was shocked again, feeling that she must be dreaming, covering her mouth with an incredible expression.
Zhou An smiled and said, "Sister Four, you are not dreaming. Let's talk about this later. Now there is a more important thing to tell you."
"Divine Clan?" This was the first thing Zhou Jingrong thought of.
Zhou An shook his head and asked, "Have you heard of the character Ice Emperor? It should be from ancient times."
"Ice Emperor?" Even Yu Lian was surprised this time. She has been born almost 4,000 years ago and has never heard of the title of Ice Emperor.
"Why did Xiaojiu ask this? I haven't heard of this." Zhou Jingrong shook her head and said.
"I got some clues about the Ice Emperor, right in the Ice Emperor's Palace. These are the treasures and methods of cultivation of the Ice Emperor back then." Zhou An took out all the treasures he received and put them on the table.
The two of them were shocked again when they saw these treasures. They were all top-grade fairy treasures and top-grade fairy treasures. In this world, a low-grade fairy treasure can make countless monks fight to the death, let alone these.
Yulian picked up the jade slip of the Ice Emperor's Heart Skill, and the soul entered it. For a moment, she screamed: "This technique can make people reach the realm of Golden Immortal!"
Thinking of Zhou An's martial arts left by the Goddess Palace, Yu Lian truly understood why Xuannv would not hesitate to become Zhou An's servant god and also become his Taoist partner.
Her calculations are definitely correct. The method of dual cultivation is just one of the reasons. The most important thing is to get involved in Zhou An’s blessing.
Zhou An said, "Sister Four, you happen to be in the ice department, so you can give it to you all."
"Xiaojiu! Are you serious? Give me all this?" Zhou Jingrong was shocked again. Even Yulian was stunned. Even she was so moved that she saw these things. Zhou An gave them away.
Even brothers can settle the score clearly, not to mention that the value of these things is many times higher than that of an ice and snow empire.
"Take it, I declare that you are the Queen of Ice and Snow. If you don't have the strength, how can you help me guard Bingzhou? There is a history of Ice and Snow Palace. I want to investigate this. Maybe I can find relevant treasures or something." Zhou An said.
"Okay, okay, then sister is not polite. I'll come with me and I'll take you to the royal collection hall." Zhou Jingrong excitedly packed these treasures. If this thing is spread, there will definitely be many people who will assassinate themselves and seize it.
