Janus breathed a sigh of relief, the expression on his face relaxed a little.
As for Ichigo, he frowned slightly and could not help but shoot a frosty glance at Master Secondson.
However, Master Secondson did not respond.
"Well, let's call it a day!" Master Firstson announced the end of the meeting.
All the chiefs left one after another.
There were only three masters left in the large hall.
Firstson's gaze shifted from the thin Secondson and to the smiling Thirdson before saying, "That kid, Fade, has something to do with the change of the World Tree core. If we can find out the secret, we may be able to escape earlier. By then, those guys in the Ice-sealed Realm will not be an issue at all."
"I hope you can understand this!"
"Brother, I understand. All these years, there isn't a day that we do not yearn to leave here." Thirdson smiled bitterly.
Secondson's face was still cold. He nodded and said, "Understood."Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
"It's good that you understand!"
Firstson nodded and turned to leave.
In the Ice-sealed Realm, Fade was soaked in freezing water with his upper body bare. His muscles twitched constantly under the cold stimulation. Out of the blue, his eyes shot open. He leapt to his feet and quickly draped his clothes over his body.
Then, he immediately ran his positive energy to dispel the chill in his body.
He stimulated his fire essence and the heat began to surge up in his body. It quickly expelled the cold and turned it into clusters of water vapor that rose into the air.
Feeling a little better, he rubbed his hands and downed a bowl of black liquid.
A strange feeling swiftly spread throughout his body and stimulated his muscles in an instant.
"Hewez's method is not that easy, having to suffer from freezing waters and medicines."
Fade muttered to himself.
At that moment, a trail of footsteps came towards him.
It was Hewez. "What's wrong, Fade? Blaming it on my method now?"
Fade was taken aback and quickly said, "Hewez, I'm just joking. Your body tempering technique works very well. With the stimulation from the freezing water and the soothing effect of the medications, I feel like I am improving much faster than I did before."
"If I keep up the pace, I will soon be able to achieve iron-like skin and officially enter the first stage of the Physical Refine Realm."
"That's fast!" Hewez was a little surprised and exclaimed, "You are indeed the disciple chosen by Master Hsuanyuen himself. You are pure talent." Speaking of his master, Fade could not help but ask, "Hewez, is my master still in seclusion? I have been here for almost a month. When can he come out?"
Hewez shook his head helplessly and answered, "We don't know when he will come out.'
"His master's injuries are unstable and so are his treatments. Sometimes, he'll come out in half a month, but other times, he might not come out for a year or two."
"Thus, I can't tell you the exact time."
Fade was a little helpless. "I see."
Hewez comforted him. "You don't have to worry about that. Just stay here and focus on cultivating. The most important thing is to improve your strength."
"Yes, I will." Fade nodded.
At that moment, hurried footsteps approached them.
"Captain, Captain!"
Hewez heard the noise and said, "I'm here! What's the matter? Why are you in such a
hurry?"
The man ran over and reported, "Captain, the people we sent out to patrol found something at a depth of around 60 kilometers."
"What is it?" Hewez asked.
The man glanced at Fade and paused before continuing, "This matter has something to do with Master Chen."
"Me?" Fade was stunned.
Hewez's expression darkened and he whispered, "What exactly is going on?"
The man quickly explained, "During our patrol, we found Taruca and the people of Prohibition Island at the depths of 60 kilometers."
"They called us over and asked us to hand over Master Chen. If we don't, three friends of his will die."
"Er..." Hewez's expression darkened as he looked at Fade.
"Did they mention who?" Fade asked in a panic.
The man shook his head, "They didn't mention specifically, but they claimed that the three people are from an organization called Final Sword Manor."
"Final Sword Manor! Jacinth, Jacory,
and Irene In an instant, Fade
thought of these three people. His gaze suddenly turned cold, and murderous intent gushed out from his eyes.
"Did they say anything else?" He asked with a gloomy face.
The man added, "They are giving us three days' time. If you don't show up, they will take action."
"D*mn it!" Fade spat out.
Seeing this, Hewez's expression darkened. He asked his subordinate, "Can you confirm if this is true?"
His subordinate shook his head helplessly and replied honestly, "It was too close to Taruca's territory. We couldn't get any closer, so we couldn't get any news about it."
"Brother Hewez, I think it's time for me to head out," Fade stated.
Hewez tried to stop him. "Fade, don't be impulsive."
"This could be Taruca's trap to lure you out and kill you. You mustn't fall for it."
Fade said, "I know. I'll be careful. However, if it's true, I can't just sit back and let it happen."
"But..." Hewez still had something to say.
Fade cut him off and continued, "Brother Newez, I know you're
worried about my safety, but
I
stay here forever. I have to go out eventually. It's just a matter of time."
Hewez was silent for a while. Finally, he sighed, looked up at Fade, and suggested, "Fine. How about I go with you? If anything happens, we can look out for each other."
Fade wanted to turn down his offer, but in the end, he changed his mind. "Thank you, Brother Hewez."
Hewez nodded and said, "Well, let's start preparing then!"
Fade nodded and jumped back into the freezing water, continuing where he left off.
He would be leaving soon to have a battle with Taruca. Thus, he wanted to strengthen his powers as much as possible and officially enter the first stage of the Physical Refine Realm, bringing his strength to a whole new level.
Half an hour later, his skin trembled in the freezing water, as if there were invisible waves rippling under the skin.
Various kinds of energy in the body converged into the skin. In the end, his skin became dyed with a silver-gray metallic texture.
Fade casually activated his positive energy and stabbed into the skin on his arm.
