Giving up unseen benefits to gain immediate ones, while also doing Wang Junze a favor. Even if they can’t become friends, at least it can smooth over past conflicts. Such a decision is indeed outstanding.
Even Wang Junze has to admit, the Lin Family’s actions today truly reflect the wisdom and depth of a great family.
Perhaps, the death of Master Lin Si might actually be a good thing for the Lin Family.
"Patriarch Lin, after this matter, my grievances with the Lin Family are written off."
Casting a glance at Lin Tong, Wang Junze spoke softly.
After saying this, Wang Junze walked straight to the Ice Sculpture.
Watching Wang Junze’s back, Lin Tong’s eyes appeared somewhat complex.
Ever since clashing with Wang Junze, the Lin Family has constantly been on the losing side. Now, such a light statement makes it seem as if the Lin Family owes him a favor. This inevitably made Lin Tong feel uncomfortable.
Yet, in a flash of thought, with a quick side-eye glance at the other members of the Lin Family, Lin Tong finally noticed that because of Wang Junze’s words, a hint of joy appeared between many people’s brows, as if a heavy stone had been lifted from their chests. Official source ıs novel※fire.net
Unknowingly, Wang Junze has truly grown to a point where he instills fear in the entire Lin Family.
Almost simultaneously, a terrifying Sword Intent suddenly erupted from Wang Junze!
The next moment, that Ice Sculpture seemed to come alive, similarly emitting a shocking Sword Intent, spreading rapidly, with the dancing wind and snow immediately forcing everyone else back.
Sword Intent inheritance!
A flash of insight suddenly crossed Lin Tong’s mind, waking him abruptly.
Before entering the relic, Su Yuwei and Luo Qingxuan had mentioned the words Yi Sword. At that time, Lin Tong hadn’t quite understood, but now, as the Ice Sculpture released this Sword Intent, he completely understood!
Feeling that terrifying Sword Intent, at this moment, Lin Tong finally completely let go.
It was unstoppable. Somehow, Wang Junze’s rise had already become inexorable, a great momentum.
If the Lin Family cannot let go of their resentment, they will only sink deeper until... they are utterly destroyed at Wang Junze’s hands.
"Master Jing Yuan, this Ice Sculpture is whole; attacking it will trigger the Ice Crystal’s power. It cannot be shattered directly, and destroying it by force would require exhausting all the Ice Crystal’s power... For those in the Refining God Realm, it would take at least an hour or two of full-force assault, possibly longer, to completely destroy it."
After several attempts, the Desert Powerhouse beside Jing Yuan reported somewhat helplessly.
There’s no choice; this Ice Sculpture is entirely made of Ice Crystals, containing immense power. Unless one has Heaven-Stepping strength, trying to drain all the Ice Crystal’s power by consumption alone is extremely difficult.
If there were enough people, it would be manageable; a hundred or several hundred working together could win by sheer numbers. But the problem is, only a few dozen Deserters entered the Restriction this time, and they have scattered to explore the snowfield, naturally making the destruction of the Ice Sculpture much more challenging.
"Then summon everyone back."
Looking at the Ice Sculpture before him, Jing Yuan instructed softly.
Hearing Jing Yuan’s words, the Deserter was taken aback, incredulously asking, "Summon everyone back? But there isn’t just one Ice Sculpture !"
"Precisely because there are more than one, that’s why we must summon everyone back!"
With a slight smile, Jing Yuan spoke slowly, "Or do you plan to have them carry the Ice Sculptures on their backs?"
Chided by Jing Yuan, the Deserter dared not argue and immediately retreated.
"Brother Jing Yuan, do you really want to destroy the Ice Sculpture?"
Nini asked curiously.
The Ice Crystals within the Ice Sculpture were indeed precious, but given Nini’s status, she didn’t care much. She was merely surprised that Jing Yuan genuinely intended to give up these Ice Crystals and choose to destroy the Ice Sculpture.
"Indeed, the more peculiar this Ice Sculpture is, the more likely it contains a profound mystery we cannot comprehend, perhaps even a powerful Sword Dao inheritance!" Jing Yuan calmly replied. "We do not cultivate Sword Dao and cannot acquire such an inheritance, so... the best choice is naturally to destroy it!"
"The relic doesn’t contain duplicate inheritances, so if there is more than one Ice Sculpture, then... it’s highly likely they combine to form a complete inheritance!"
"The snowfield is vast, and we cannot prevent Wang Junze from obtaining the inheritance from other Ice Sculptures, but destroying just one is sufficient!"
"Is there enough time?" Nini asked again, "Wang Junze is also formidable; he might guess your plan?"
"Then... a final battle here it is!"
Smiling, as he ruffled Nini’s hair, Jing Yuan calmly replied, "Do you think those of the Human Race will choose to search for Ice Crystals all over, or accompany him in a life-and-death struggle?"
With this, Nini finally fully understood.
Jing Yuan wasn’t afraid of Wang Junze knowing he wanted to destroy the Ice Sculpture; it was even intentional, recalling all Deserters from the snowfield to inform Wang Junze of this clue, thereby... forcing Wang Junze to his death!
