39: Ice King breaks the seal! There is such a monster in the world
“Can you really undo my Seal?”
Hearing Gu Fei’s words, Hai Bodong’s eyes flickered, clearly showing some wavering.
“Hai Bodong feels hesitant, Emotion Value +80.”
“Do you know who placed the Seal on me?”
However, very quickly, a hint of mockery appeared in Hai Bodong’s eyes as he chuckled, “You’re just a young lad, how dare you claim to undo a Seal that I haven’t been able to break for decades?”
“Hai Bodong feels disdain and suspicion, Emotion Value +80.”
“Haha, it seems that to make you believe me, I’ll have to display my cultivation…”
Listening to Hai Bodong’s mockery, Gu Fei chuckled and shook his head. At the same time, he no longer deliberately suppressed his cultivation Aura.
An extremely domineering Aura spread from him, and in just an instant, it froze Hai Bodong in place, his pupils widening.
“How is that possible?”
“This Aura, even the Medusa Queen back then wasn’t this powerful!”
“Hai Bodong feels shocked, Emotion Value +80.”
“This young man, at such a young age, can possess such terrifying strength. It seems he really might be able to break my Seal!”
A glimmer of hope couldn’t help but rise in Hai Bodong’s heart. However, at this moment, he was also quite wary of Gu Fei.
A Prodigy like Gu Fei had completely refreshed his worldview.
“Hai Bodong feels anticipation and wariness, Emotion Value +80.”
“Haha, old sir, there’s no need to worry. Since I said I’d trade, I won’t resort to seizing anything by force…” Knowing Hai Bodong’s emotions, Gu Fei said with a faint smile.
Hearing this, Hai Bodong also breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. If Gu Fei were to seize it by force, he would truly be helpless, because the Aura Gu Fei had displayed earlier was so powerful that even if Hai Bodong hadn’t been Sealed, he would be no match for Gu Fei.
“Young friend, to be frank, I am Hai Bodong, one of the Jia Ma Empire’s former top ten powerhouses. I presume you’ve heard of me!”
Hai Bodong’s address for Gu Fei changed from “lad” to the more respectful “young friend.”
And when he said this, deep down, he seemed to have some expectations.
“I have!”
“The Ice Emperor’s name is quite renowned!”
Hearing this, Gu Fei nodded.
His reply brought a hint of pride to Hai Bodong’s face, and he sighed inwardly, “Even after so many years of disappearing, my former prestige still spreads throughout the Empire!”
“Then, may I ask where young friend comes from?”
Hai Bodong continued to inquire.
“I am not from the Jia Ma Empire!”
Gu Fei stated directly, “I came here because I heard that an unusual flame appeared in the Tagor Desert, and I came specifically to find it!”
Beside them, Xiao Yi Xian listened to these words without surprise; Gu Fei had already confided in her about seeking the unusual flame.
“So that’s how it is!”
Hearing this, Hai Bodong pondered.
He didn’t doubt Gu Fei’s words. After all, it was difficult for a place like the Jia Ma Empire to produce such a Prodigy as Gu Fei.
Perhaps only the vast Central Plains could give birth to such a Prodigy.
“Young friend just said you are willing to undo my Seal. Is that true?”
The next moment, Hai Bodong finally brought up the matter of his Seal.
“Of course, it’s true!”
Gu Fei nodded confidently.
Hai Bodong’s Seal was placed by the Medusa Queen. To undo the Seal, one could either use a high-grade Medicinal Pill for unsealing, or forcefully break through the Seal. With Gu Fei’s current cultivation, achieving this was not difficult.
“Good, if young friend can truly undo my Seal, then this incomplete map is yours. Additionally, I’ve been here for decades and can provide young friend with some information about the unusual flame as repayment…”
Receiving Gu Fei’s affirmative answer, Hai Bodong also showed his sincerity.
“Just this one incomplete map isn’t enough!”
After Hai Bodong offered his reward, Gu Fei smiled and shook his head, saying, “There are some traces on one side of this incomplete map that differ from the other side. It’s clearly been separated!”
“I didn’t expect this young man to not only have extremely strong cultivation but also be incredibly meticulous…”
Hearing Gu Fei’s words, Hai Bodong’s expression changed slightly, and he felt surprised again in his heart.
“Hai Bodong feels shocked, Emotion Value +80.”
“Young friend, you guessed correctly. This item was indeed divided into two by me. The other half is hidden. If young friend breaks my Seal, I will give you that other incomplete map as well…”
Hai Bodong hesitated for a moment, then nodded.
Before the Seal was broken, he wouldn’t hand over the second incomplete map.
“Then let’s begin!”
Gu Fei didn’t hesitate either; undoing a Seal wouldn’t take much time.
“How does young friend plan to break my Seal?” Hai Bodong asked.
Over the years, he had also been trying to find a solution for the Seal, and he had even found a Pill Formula called the Breaking Calamity Pill.
However, he struggled to find an Alchemist capable of refining a sixth-grade Medicinal Pill and possessing an unusual flame, and he was also missing one ingredient.
“For this kind of Seal, you can just forcefully break it with battle Qi!”
As soon as his voice fell, a scorching battle Qi surged from Gu Fei’s palms.
This magnificent battle Qi fluctuation instantly paled Hai Bodong’s face.
He had no time to react before his body was enveloped by Gu Fei’s powerful battle Qi.
Immediately after, a large amount of battle Qi began to pour into Hai Bodong’s body.
After a while, Hai Bodong’s body trembled violently, and his aged face suddenly tensed up.
At the location of his forehead, a strange, dark green energy rapidly condensed.
Moments later, it actually formed a thin, dark green energy snake pattern.
These snake patterns were the key to locking Hai Bodong’s body’s battle Qi.
And now, Gu Fei only needed to completely obliterate these snake patterns to break the Seal.
“The process that follows might be a bit painful, so prepare yourself mentally!”
Gu Fei reminded Hai Bodong, then with a movement of his hand Seals, an energy immediately surged from within Hai Bodong’s body.
“Ah!”
At this moment, Hai Bodong’s veins bulged, as if he was enduring immense pain.
However, this didn’t last long. After a short while, those snake patterns were squeezed out of Hai Bodong’s body by Gu Fei’s battle Qi energy.
As soon as those snake patterns left Hai Bodong’s head, they trembled violently, then transformed into a wisp of green smoke, slowly dissipating.
The instant the snake patterns left his body, Hai Bodong’s tightly shut eyes suddenly snapped open.
A sharp glint shot out from his eyes like a tangible substance, and a fierce Aura, like a roused lion, surged out from within his body, which had been suppressed for decades.
“Haha, this damned Seal is finally gone!”
“I’m a Dou Emperor again!”
With the Seal broken, Hai Bodong’s face was filled with wild joy, and he threw his head back and laughed heartily.
