Observing the exquisitely crafted palace, Xin Yun was simply dumbfounded. Everything here, was ford from the crystal-clear Profound Ice. Bathed in the light, it radiated a splendid brilliance. Wherever one looked, not even a speck of dust could be seen.
Looking at this hall that covered thousands of square ters, Xin Yun ventured to ask, "This... How long did it take you to build this hall? It must have been difficult!"
In response to Xin Yun's question, Lan Se replied with a gentle smile, "It didn't take very long, mainly because these small components are more ti-consuming. If it were just about creating this space, it would take about half a minute."
"Half! Half a minute!" Hearing Lan Se's words, Xin Yun was flabbergasted. That's too exaggerated!
With a slight smile, Lan Se reached with her right hand toward the center of the hall. Instantly... the smooth, mirror-like floor in the center of the hall began to dissolve away rapidly, forming a depression that continued to sink downwards, and in the blink of an eye, created a passageway stretching downward at an angle, with a diater of ten ters.
Looking at Xin Yun, Lan Se smiled and said, "If we continue downwards, the light becos difficult to collect. So, the passage that leads to the opening you ntioned can be directly reached from here without any detours."
"Yes, yes, yes..." Xin Yun nodded excitedly in response to Lan Se's words. "That's great, truly amazing. With the maze outside for protection, it's very difficult for anyone to get here, and even if they did, they might not discover this passage."
Hearing Xin Yun's words, Lan Se smiled faintly and shook her head, "That maze isn't ant to confuse people. The mont an enemy enters, I can instantly solidify the passage, sealing the incoming foe alive within the glacier. I can guarantee that even a diamond-ranked expert would be unable to escape being sealed!"
"What! This..." Hearing Lan Se's words, Xin Yun's face turned pale with shock. Yes... Although the passage is ten ters in diater, one must rember that the dragons they rode weren't small either!
With Lan Se's ice condensing ability and the extre cold, once the enemy entered the passage, she could launch an attack at any mont, freezing the foe within the passage, and then keep reinforcing it. There would be no escape.
Of course, nothing is absolute in this world. If soone were capable of breaking through the more than ten kiloters of glacier, then escape would be possible. Unfortunately... not to ntion diamond-ranked experts, even if the Nine Great Experts of the future were to co, they would be at a loss, the difference in power being too vast, like heaven and earth.
Watching Xin Yun overco with joy, Lan Se continued, "This place is ten kiloters away from the outside, no attack can penetrate through the ice walls between here and there. Once soone enters the passageway, their life and death are already in my hands. So... this location is truly ideal for our main headquarters."
Excitedly nodding his head, Xin Yun laughed and said, "Good, very good! But... just that is still not secure enough. Build another ice palace, one without any passages at all. Only like this can your safety be absolutely guaranteed. You have to realize... as the base for the gang, mbers are bound to co here eventually, and if they were to suddenly strike, then..."
Listening to Xin Yun's words, Lan Se smiled sweetly, "Actually... I have already built such a palace. Although this place is very nice, in reality, most of my energy has been focused on that palace with no access."
While speaking, Lan Se raised her hand and pointed upwards, "Beneath the peak of this glacier, ten kiloters from the ice surface, that's where I plan to build a palace. Except for the most core mbers, others won't be able to reach it. Also... the location is excellent, with abundant natural lighting. Once built, it will surely be the most wonderful place."
Hearing Lan Se's words, Xin Yun clapped and laughed. Indeed... halfway up the mountain is simply not sufficient. To truly build an ice palace, it must be at the summit of the mountain! That's where the conditions are the best, and the most valuable part is that it's right within the ninth layer of clouds, making ingress and egress extrely convenient, and difficult for outsiders to detect.
Of course, when it's said to be inaccessible, that only applies to the regular gang mbers. For Xin Yun, there is still a way through. With Lan Se's ice-condensing ability, she can instantly create a passage for him to enter, especially later on, once the Tai Chi Diagram is successfully restored. He could directly use a dinsional passageway to get inside, rendering even this unnecessary.
Admiringly, Xin Yun looked at Lan Se and asked, "By the way, how is your strength recovery going? To what extent have you recovered?"
Facing Xin Yun's question, Lan Se looked at him gratefully and said, "There's no problem anymore. Over the past year, I've successfully replaced my Origin Energy. Not only have I recovered to my forr realm, but I've also made a breakthrough! Now... I already have the strength of Crystal Three Stars!"
"My god!" Hearing Lan Se's words, Xin Yun jumped up in joy. This was truly unexpected. Logically speaking, given Lan Se's condition, being able to recover her original strength in one year would have been impressive enough, let alone an increase of one star!
It only took a mont of thinking for Xin Yun to understand why such a miracle was possible. It was entirely because the environnt here was truly so special, so suited to Lan Se. In this environnt, even slow cultivation wouldn't be possible. Just as Lan Se herself had said, she had beco one with the glacier, unable to leave or even want to.
In contemplation, Xin Yun asked expectantly, "How about it! After changing your energy, have there been any changes to your abilities or battle techniques?"
