Chapter 182

Baek Mu-Gun and Beigong Xue secured the Beihai Divine Ice Sword and descended the stairs. After a considerable descent, they encountered a grand ice door, with a small hole in the floor before it. Without hesitation, Beigong Xue slotted the Beihai Divine Ice Sword into the opening.

A resonant click echoed, causing the immense ice door to glide open. Beyond it revealed a vast ice chamber.

Lets go in.

Mu-Gun and Beigong Xue entered the ice chamber. The ice chamber seemed to be dozens of pyeong[1] wide, and ice coffins were erected on the ice walls on all sides. The number of ice coffins totaled exactly twelve coffins.

It seems like all the former patriarchs of the Beihai Ice Palace are in those ice coffins.

Yes, that is correct.

But how do we awaken them? Mu-Gun inquired.

They can be awakened through the Beihai Ice Soul Spell, Beigong Xue revealed.

Given your lower martial realm compared to the former patriarchs, can you control them?

Yes, dont worry. The Beihai Glacier Zombies recognize the possessor of the Beihai Divine Ice Sword as their master, regardless of martial realm.

I'm relieved. What's our next step?

First, we need to open the ice coffin lids, Beigong Xue said.

Will they wake up suddenly?

No, they wont wake until I use the Beihai Ice Soul Spell.

Mu-Gun nodded and, with his Supreme Realm strength, opened the frozen lids of the orderly arranged ice coffins. The first revealed an elderly man, unmistakably lifeless but emanating a potent energy of the Absolute Realm, the highest rank.

Thank you, Beigong Xue expressed gratitude as Mu-Gun opened the other lids.

Stepping back, Mu-Gun allowed Beigong Xue space for her spell. Holding the Beihai Divine Ice Sword, she stood at the chamber's center, closed her eyes, and began the incantation. The sword responded with a resonant voice and a growing blue lightan effect of the Myriad Ice Essence within the sword reacting to the Beihai Ice Soul Spell.

As Beigong Xue continued the incantation, the blue light intensified. Finally, after completing the spell, she stabbed the sword into the chamber floor. The blue light divided into twelve strands, spreading towards the locations of the twelve ice coffins.

The blue light spread across the floor, enveloping the ice coffins and then penetrating the twelve lifeless bodies within. The corpses trembled as they absorbed the cold qi emitted by the Beihai Divine Ice Sword, causing the ice coffins to shudder. The Beihai Divine Ice Sword continued to release its blue-colored cold qi, and the twelve corpses absorbed it eagerly, eventually opening their eyes.

A potent wave of cold qi surged from the awakened bodies, shattering their ice coffins. Rising to their feet, they turned towards Beigong Xue, who still held the glowing sword. As their gazes locked, a connection formed between Beigong Xue's mind and the twelve Beihai Glacier Zombies.

Mu-Gun shrugged in response, Then, lets go down now. The guards waiting below must be very worried because four days have passed due to you circulating your qi.

Four days have passed?

Yes. To be honest, I was bored to death waiting alone.

Ah! I am sorry. I didnt even know that.

I am kidding, it is a joke. The guards must be more worried than me, so lets quickly go down, Mu-Gun joked.

Lets quickly go.

Mu-Gun and Beigong Xue ascended Ie Sword Peak through the stairs, with the twelve Beihai Glacier Zombies following. At the peak, Beigong Xue inquired about the descent.

But how do we get down?

There is a way for me and you to go down, but the Beihai Ice Palaces former patriarchs are going to be a problem.

Then, shall we have the Beihai Glacier Zombies go down first?

That would be great.

Beigong Xue nodded and instructed the Beihai Glacier Zombies to descend. Without hesitation, they slid down the steep slope, controlling their speed with the frictional force generated by kicking their feet against the ice wall, thanks to their Vajra Physique.

Wow! I was worried for no reason, Mu-Gun admired the scene.

But how do we get down?

We will go down riding this.

Mu-Gun raised the Flying Golden Shield, showing it to Beigong Xue.

We're going down on a shield?

I will take you safely to the bottom of the Ice Sword Peak, so get on my back for now, Mu-Gun reassured, gesturing to his back.

With no other option, Beigong Xue climbed onto Mu-Guns back. Placing the Flying Golden Shield at the peak's boundary, Mu-Gun, with Beigong Xue on his back, descended the slope. The Flying Golden Shield, infused with the force from the Flying Golden Shield Scripture, zigzagged down the Ice Sword Peak. Mu-Gun expertly controlled the speed by creating friction with the ice walls whenever they changed directiona technique similar to that employed by the Beihai Glacier Zombies.

On Mu-Guns back, Beigong Xue felt exhilarated as they slid down. She contemplated the idea of trying this descent whenever she needed a refreshing break. Little did she know that this experience would later inspire the creation of the Ice Skateboard, eventually becoming one of the most enjoyable pastimes in Beihai.
