Chapter 70: Chapter 70 : The Three Realm Spear (2)

Remnants of a strong weapon remained powerful even after it was broken into three parts. Additionally, the three parts attracted each other.

From the lowest level sea creatures, the three fragments wandered from one creature to another. Sometimes through peaceful means, sometimes through forceful methods.

The Realm Splitting Spear was originally used to soak in the blood of Li Guang’s enemies, so it was constantly on the look for bloody confrontations to strengthen itself.

The unrest that it caused within the ocean posed a great disturbance to the Four Sea Kings who ruled over the entire water body in the human realm.

The Four Sea Kings did not want to have anything to do with a wretched, broken weapon. In the end, the fragments were carried by turtles to the dry land and dumped unceremoniously at a beach.

The fragments cried sorrowfully due to his master’s abandonment and the ill fate that led them to this miserable end. Their cries reached the ears of the God of Arms and Weaponry, who took the fragments with him back to heaven.

In his arsenal, he worked hard to repair the Realm Splitting Spear. Due to the excessive damage to the body, it required some modification to recover its initial strength.

The God of Arms and Weaponry brought the half-restored spear back to Li Guang, hoping that the latter would feel nostalgic about his once beloved spear and help restore it to its glory. Li Guang was unfortunately still bitter about his brother’s death. In the end, not only did Li Guang not take the spear back, he even banished the spear to a prison.

The Realm Splitting Spear was no more. Its name was changed into Three Realm Spear, and it was chained with numerous chains and drowned at the bottom of the Abyssal Ice Pond that froze all year round.

The Abyssal Ice Pond was located at Heaven and Hell Peak. This name was given as a tribute to a human cultivator who cultivated for a long time but had yet to ascend.

This cultivator climbed the high peak and went there to pray. After he prayed, he threw himself from the peak to put the gravity of his intent to display.

He either plummeted to hell or was pulled to heaven.

Which one was it?

No one knew, because his body had never been found.

Theoretically, the heavenly realm residents should be able to reach the peak easily by flying downward. Alas, the Heaven and Hell Peak was a tricky place. It was sometimes there, it was sometimes somewhere else. In order to reach the peak, it was necessary to walk all the way up from the base of the mountain to the peak.

In retrospect, many people understood why Li Guang selected this place to be the Three Realm Spear’s prison. He wanted to discourage people from trying to take the spear away. Or, as many optimists liked to say, Li Guang wanted only the best of the best to fight over the spear and obtain its approval.

Many spearmen had braved the arduous trip to climb the Heaven and Hell Peak and reach the Abyssal Ice Pond. To those who showed a high potential, the pond melted and the spear rose to the surface to meet its future master.

What happened next was pretty obscure because all those who failed to get the spear woke up some distance away from the frozen pond with numerous bruises and wounds all over their bodies.

These wounds were not serious enough to endanger their lives, but no one remembered what happened. They all agreed that they were rejected by the spear and no longer wished to obtain the spear.

All but Zhang Fengxi, the only one who managed to obtain the spear in his past life. It was not easy. He almost died. The good news was that this time around, he came fully prepared. This was why he wanted to master Crimson Judgment Spear Art before he came to get the Three Realm Spear.

When they arrived at the Heaven and Hell Peak, it was very early in the morning. Gentle mist hung above the surface of the frozen Abyssal Ice Lake, making it impossible to even see the edges of the lake.

Commandant Jiang took a deep breath.

When he was young, he too came here to claim the spear. He did not only fail, but also developed a strange aversion toward this place.

It was as if something horrible happened to him at that time.

Now, he had brought his disciple to the same place to have a try. Turning to Zhang Fengxi, he patted the young alpha’s shoulder and said, "Good luck, Prince. Do your best."

Zhang Fengxi beamed at him.

"Thank you, Teacher."

He was more prepared this time. Naturally, everything must go well.

Zhang Fengxi slowly walked into the mist. His steps were unhurried, he kept looking at the ground in order to prevent himself from accidentally stepping into the frozen lake.

[Who...?]

Zhang Fengxi stopped as soon as he heard the voice.

"I am Zhang Fengxi, heir of the Longjing Palace in the Heavenly Realm."

[Ahhhh... The Heavenly Realm...]

CRACK

SNAP

CRACK

More cracking sounds were heard, until the entire frozen lake collapsed and something emerged from the center. The sound of rattling chains filled the air.

Zhang Fengxi squinted his eyes. An intense aura emanated from the spear that just burst through the water surface.

[Heavenly... Realm... it has been so long... so long...]

The spear wept.

It still remembered its first master, the master who abandoned him so cruelly.

"Three Realm Spear, I am here to undergo your trial."

[Kehehehehehe... youngling, you have the confidence. Do you have the strength too...?]

Zhang Fengxi smirked.

"Try me."

The moment Zhang Fengxi replied, six pillars of water shot out from inside the lake. Zhang Fengxi calmly closed his eyes when the pillars moved like snakes and wrapped themselves around his body.

At the next moment, Zhang Fengxi was dragged into the freezing cold lake.

Once Zhang Fengxi disappeared beneath the water surface, the water calmed down, ice slowly formed, and the Abyssal Ice Lake returned to its initial state.
