101: The phantom of the Snow Emperor, protected by precious armor.
It was divided into two levels.
The first level was the Rune Legacy.
The second level was the Snow Emperor's Domain Legacy, which required two imperial decrees to open.
Qin Feng waited for Chu Han to rest for ten days before daring to approach.
After a long time of coaxing, Chu Han's anger finally dissipated.
Then, the two of them took out the imperial decrees and opened the second level of the Legacy.
"Pop...!"
As the imperial decrees merged into one, the lake surface instantly collapsed.
Their surroundings were no longer dotted with starlight, but the snowy field they had walked through before.
However, it was more vast here, the wind and snow were heavier, and the temperature was even lower.
Fortunately, Chu Han had already achieved a Breakthrough to the Sage Realm and had changed into a long robe.
Otherwise, she would have certainly been shivering from the cold again.
"Clang...!"
On the snow, a loud bang echoed from within the Void Realm.
Space began to shake, and the ground trembled continuously.
"Junior, welcome to my Domain."
"It has been thirty thousand years. Finally, someone decent from the Tianyan Divine Sect has come here, able to withstand the Imperial Authority I left behind."
"Has our Tianyan Divine Sect truly declined to such a state?"
Amidst the swirling snow, a weathered voice rang out.
Then, a dreamlike phantom gradually emerged.
The swirling snow stopped falling as the illusory figure appeared.
The entire space fell still.
Qin Feng and Chu Han looked up.
They saw a girl dressed in a snow-white robe, standing in the Void Realm.
The girl appeared to be about twenty years old. Her skin was fair and delicate, and her features were elegant.
However, the illusory figure's hair was white.
Her white hair was draped over her shoulders, possessing an indescribable beauty.
For a moment, Qin Feng was dazed.
"Ow~!"
Suddenly, someone pinched Qin Feng's arm, snapping him back to reality.
Turning his head, he saw it was indeed Chu Han.
Seeing Qin Feng staring blankly at the Snow Emperor's phantom, Chu Han felt a pang of jealousy and immediately used her orchid fingers to pinch him.
To be fair, even Chu Han was stunned for a while by the Snow Emperor's white-haired beauty.
However, Chu Han regained her senses more quickly.
Since Qin Feng was dazed, he suffered a small loss.
Qin Feng gave a helpless, bitter smile.
Then, he cupped his hands toward the phantom and said:
"Greetings, Snow Emperor."
Although it was only a wisp of a phantom, its strength was extremely formidable and terrifying.
Even a Quasi-Emperor could not compare to it.
"I pay my respects to the Snow Emperor!"
Chu Han, on the other hand, knelt and bowed directly, being very sincere.
The fact that the Snow Emperor's phantom still existed proved that the Great Emperor of the Tianyan Divine Sect had not fallen.
Perhaps she was simply cultivating in seclusion somewhere.
Or perhaps she was in a great battle with an enemy.
"Junior, why do you not kneel upon seeing me?"
The Snow Emperor's phantom frowned, her sharp gaze fixing on Qin Feng as she asked.
"Uh...!"
"I don't have that habit."
Qin Feng shrugged and replied.
Since birth, Qin Feng had never knelt or bowed to anyone.
It was always others who knelt to him.
"Oh?"
"Then this Emperor shall teach you."
The Snow Emperor's illusory figure flickered, turning into a snowflake and instantly appearing before Qin Feng.
Then, she returned to her original form.
At the same time, a terrifying Imperial Authority pressed down, overwhelming everything.
"Crackle... Crackle!"
Qin Feng's bones creaked slightly; releasing Imperial Authority at such close range was incredibly oppressive.
However, Qin Feng still did not yield, standing tall and proud.
"Snow Emperor, don't go looking for trouble. I'm here to receive the Legacy, not to kneel before you."
"If you continue to bully the weak, don't blame me for being impolite."
Qin Feng frowned and said.
Chu Han: "Snow... Snow Emperor, please don't be angry."
"He is still young, please don't take it to heart."
Chu Han hurriedly stepped forward to speak up for Qin Feng.
But the Snow Emperor's phantom didn't listen to Chu Han at all, instead continuing to increase the Imperial Authority.
"Junior, it is your honor to kneel before this Emperor."
"Don't think that just because you're handsome, I'll let you off."
"This Emperor also wants to see what a mere Wheel Sea Realm cultivator has to use against me."
The Snow Emperor said, feeling very displeased.
After speaking, the Snow Emperor waved her hand gently.
"Swish...!"
Immediately, the heavy snow condensed into a snow sword, streaking through the sky toward Qin Feng.
The Snow Emperor didn't strike ruthlessly.
This sword strike was, at most, at the Peak of the Divine Palace Realm.
She didn't want to harm this junior, but she also didn't want the Imperial Authority to be tarnished because of him.
"Bang...!"
The snow sword struck Qin Feng's body with a loud bang.
Then, the snowflakes turned to water, submerging Qin Feng and instantly freezing him solid.
"Junior, being able to come here shows you have some Aptitude, but you shouldn't be so arro—"
The Snow Emperor said coldly, looking at the frozen Qin Feng.
"Crack...!"
Before she could finish her sentence, cracks appeared in the ice.
With a "boom," countless ice shards flew in all directions.
The Snow Emperor was slightly stunned.
Although that sword strike just now wasn't strong, it had surpassed the youth by an entire major Realm.
Furthermore, with the presence of Imperial Authority, trapping him for three to five days should have been easy.
However, the slap to her Face came quickly; he broke free in the blink of an eye.
This truly moved the Snow Emperor.
"Interesting!"
"Endure one more sword strike from me, and this Emperor will allow you not to kneel."
The Snow Emperor said, her Face feeling a bit strained.
"Bring it on!"
Qin Feng shrugged, looking indifferent.
"Swish...!"
Feeling looked down upon by a junior, the Snow Emperor waved her hand again, sending a sword through the sky.
This time, the long sword condensed from snowflakes reached the Peak of the Venerable Realm.
It even surpassed the Venerable Realm and reached the Sage Realm.
Nearby, seeing this, Chu Han hurriedly stood up and blocked the way in front of Qin Feng.
"Screech!"
Seeing this, the Snow Emperor's thought moved, halting the snow sword's advance.
Then, with a wave of her hand, Chu Han was instantly teleported a hundred feet away, and the snow sword continued its flight.
"Bang...!"
With a muffled bang, the snow sword shattered, and snowflakes danced everywhere.
Yet Qin Feng remained completely unmoved.
"Snow Emperor, keep your word."
Qin Feng brushed the snowflakes off his body and said.
"Na... naturally, I keep my word."
The Snow Emperor's phantom flickered slightly as she turned away, responding haltingly.
At the same time, she withdrew her Imperial Authority.
"Damn it, this fellow has a protective treasure armor; he didn't even budge against a Peak Venerable Realm sword strike."
"The soft armor is even woven from celestial silkworm silk. No wonder he's so fearless."
The Snow Emperor's phantom thought to herself.
From that sword strike, the Snow Emperor had already seen through it.
The Silkworm Treasure Garment had blocked her strike.
Moreover, that treasure garment carried the aura of a Great Emperor.
"Are you alright, Qin Feng?"
Chu Han turned into a streak of light and arrived at Qin Feng's side, hurriedly asking after feeling him all over.
"I'm fine, it can't hurt me."
"Unless the Snow Emperor herself were to arrive in person."
Qin Feng said, still with a proud expression.
It seemed he simply didn't know the meaning of restraint!
The Snow Emperor's phantom gnashed her teeth; if she had known, she would have just used a Sage Realm sword strike from the start.
To dampen his arrogance first before letting him receive the Legacy.
However, now that the words were out, as a Great Emperor, she could not go back on her promise.
"Ahem!"
"Ahem! You two are both Disciples of my Tianyan Divine Sect. How is the Tianyan Divine Sect doing these days?"
The Snow Emperor feigned a cough, turned around, and asked.
"Snow Emperor, the Tianyan Divine Sect is doing... doing somewhat poorly."
"Before receiving the Legacy, there was only one Sage Realm expert."
"Now there are two."
Chu Han replied cautiously.
"One Sage?"
The Snow Emperor's illusory figure began to tremble.
When she left back then, the Sect had a multitude of Quasi-Emperors and countless Sages.
Now, there was only one Sage, and with Chu Han, only two Sage Realm experts.
"That's not right!"
"You're lying. The Silkworm Treasure Garment he's wearing can only be woven by a Great Emperor."
The Snow Emperor pointed at the robe on Qin Feng's body, looking directly at Chu Han as she spoke.
"Snow... Snow Emperor, he just recently joined the Tianyan Divine Sect."
"He is the child of the Qingqiu Great Emperor from the Bulao State of the Three Thousand Dao States; he's just here for a visit."
Chu Han replied cautiously.
