Chapter 632: Ice and Fire Realm_1
"Ice and Fire Realm! Ice and Fire Holy God! Holy Divine Artifact!"
Chu Yuan uttered three key phrases, a glint of divine light flashing in his eyes.

Frightened by these events, Jiao Feng prostrated himself on the ground, wondering what he'd done to anger his majesty.
"When did you receive this information?" Chu Yuan inquired.
In a submissive tone, Jiao Feng replied, "Great Majesty, I received this news two years ago. Before I could act on it, I was caught."
"Two years ago isn't too long," Chu Yuan murmured.
Chu Yuan gave a slight nod.
That was the period when the Empire of Dutian and the Jiuyou World were at war. Jiao Feng was unfortunate enough to fall into the line of fire. For news to travel beyond the stars, that was a relatively short period.
"Ding! Current side quest released: find opportunities within the Ice and Fire Realm and consider the mission completed upon obtaining the Holy Divine Artifact. Failure to obtain the Holy Divine Artifact will result in mission failure."
The system voice sounded, announcing a new task.
"Yang Teng!"
Chu Yuan summoned.
"I'm here!"
Yang Teng appeared.
He hadn't been in Dawu for long, but his strength had greatly increased. A slight movement emitted an aura that manifested into a image of the Primordial Chaos.
His strength continued to increase, just one step away from becoming a holy god. He was almost there.
This was due to the spiritual energy of the people of Dawu helping him develop his Primordial Chaos War Body.
Now, he could reap great benefits by completing tasks for Dawu, much faster than his previous method of cultivating on his own. It was as if he had come upon a paradise.
He was not willing to leave this favorable environment for his cultivation.
He also belatedly realized that if he had recognized the situation earlier, he would not have been beaten by the Soul Whip. The thought alone sent shivers down his spine.
"Do you know where the Ice and Fire Realm is?" Chu Yuan asked.
"I... I know."
Jiao Feng cowered on the ground.
"Good, Yang Teng, you and Jiao Feng will head to the Ice and Fire Realm. I've received news of a rumored Holy Divine Artifact there. Bring it back. I'll be waiting for your good news."
Chu Yuan ordered, "If you can bring it back and complete the mission, you will be granted more spiritual energy, which might help you break through to the holy god realm."
"A Holy Divine Artifact, huh?"
Yang Teng nodded, "I will definitely retrieve it for Your Majesty and complete this mission successfully!"
He knew that although His Majesty was ruthless in his actions, he was extremely generous to his own people.
"Considering that even Jiao Feng knows about it, there might be quite a few people heading to the Ice and Fire Realm this time. It will surely attract many strong contenders," Chu Yuan observed.
"No matter how many there are, I will obtain the treasure!"
Yang Teng declared confidently.
His current strength was far greater than before, ensuring that he would not be gravely injured in a battle against the same holy god as before.
"Just in case, take these two items with you."
Chu Yuan handed over the two items to Yang Teng, "One is the Phantom God Symbol, which can duplicate your aura to create deception. The other is the Holy God Seal, which contains the power of two five-layer holy gods."
"The power of five-layer holy gods!"
Yang Teng was taken aback in surprise.
The five-layer holy god, even in the starry universe, was an absolutely formidable foe. Although it was only capable of two moves, if used wisely, they could have an unexpectedly powerful effect.
"Jiao Feng, if you can help Yang Teng complete this quest successfully, you will become one of us in Dawu and share in our fortunes, ending your days as a wanderer."
Chu Yuan dismissed them with a wave, "Go, do not disappoint me."
"Let's go, we can't waste any time!"
Yang Teng, who was impatient, grabbed Jiao Feng and immediately left Dawu, first heading to the World of Destruction via the transportation circle.
The transportation circle in Dawu had also begun to expand outward. Although this action consumed a great deal of resources, it was deemed necessary for unforeseen situations.
This time, Yang Teng used the transportation circle to save a lot of time.
"I hope to bring back the Holy Divine Artifact from the Ice and Fire Realm this time. I need too many Holy Divine Artifacts now."
Chu Yuan stood with his hands folded behind his back, watching Yang Teng's retreating figure.
The Emperor's Sword needed to be unsealed.
The Taiyi Pill Furnace also needed repair.
Even a piece of uncertain news could not be ignored.
At this time, in the universe beyond our star field, Yang Teng, accompanied by Jiao Feng, was traveling through space after many days of journeying.
"Ice and Fire Holy God? How much do you know about this Holy God?"
Yang Teng asked Jiao Feng.
He knew that the task was not easy, but the rewards for completion were great. Despite his rough exterior, having reached this level of cultivation, he was far from a fool and understood the importance of intelligence.
"I know a little. The Ice and Fire Holy God is an ancient one, extremely powerful, deeply cultivated, the power of the sacred path of ice and fire law was contradictory and terrifying. However, he's already perished."
Jiao Feng had only been a god when he became a wanderer.
By cautiously choosing his alliances and focusing on his cultivation, he managed to climb up to the current rank of Main God.
He had also thoroughly researched the Ice and Fire Realm before heading there, but he was disastrously captured on his way there.
"Holy gods also have a limit to their lifespan. Only by integrating and controlling a super large world to obtain its power, can they acquire a life that coexists with the world. However, this is extremely difficult."
Yang Teng sighed, even gods that roamed in the universal starry space also had their day of demise.
He shook his head fiercely. What was he thinking about? He hadn't even broken through to the holy god level, and he was already fantasizing about the force of the boundary. He grinned, "What else?"
He tried to make himself seem friendly, but his gruff exterior made his smile seem ghastly, startling Jiao Feng.
Jiao Feng, frightened, said: "The news about the Holy Divine Artifact in the Ice and Fire Realm has been circulating for some years. A group of people who went in is mostly dead. It's said to be the place where the Ice and Fire Holy God perished, extremely dangerous."
"The place where a holy god collapses would indeed be perilous."
Yang Teng agreed with a nod.
"Although the news has spread among the wanderers, only a fraction of them dare to venture there. After all, without the strength of a Main God, it is suicide to go there."
Jiao Feng explained.
"Ha-ha, if it wasn't for you, I wouldn't have known about this news."
Yang Teng slapped Jiao Feng on the back hearty and then hoisted him up, "You're too slow! If we continue like this, others will snatch the treasure. We won't be able to complete the task that His Majesty has entrusted to me, let alone talk about rewards."
Like a human-form rampaging dragon, he suddenly picked up speed, rushing forth through the void.
This was different from Chu Yuan's use of the Great Void Transfer. Yang Teng was using his own physical body to rip through the void with brute force.
"Fast, too fast! Your speed is too fast!"
Fear was written all over Jiao Feng's face.
This storm of tearing through the universe with a physical body blasted grimly on him. Even though he was a Main God, he had great difficulty resisting the storm caused by Yang Teng.
"How can we get to the Ice and Fire Realm without speeding up? If the task fails, I can't even imagine the look on His Majesty's face."
Yang Teng continued to increase his speed.
Chu Yuan provided him with numerous imperial artifacts this time around - artifacts for healing, replenishing blood, and assistance.
Yang Teng didn't hesitate to use these items extravagantly, aware of Chu Yuan's bounty, which was beyond his wildest imagination.
All Jiao Feng could do was grit his teeth and bear it.
More than a month later, they finally arrived.
Yang Teng stopped and looked into the distance. In the starry space, there was an unusual world – the Ice and Fire Realm that Jiao Feng had mentioned!
