Huo Feng felt a surge of anxiety; if everything fell apart at this stage, it would be devastating. However, seeing Master, Mo Qi, and Wind Serpent King still motionless in their state, Huo Feng finally relaxed. It was important to note that Master's desire to reach the Otherworld was no less than Huo Feng's. Thus, Huo Feng decided to patiently wait for them to awaken.
As success drew near, impatience grew stronger. Moments felt like an eternity to Huo Feng. Finally, Mo Qi opened his eyes and stood up.
At that moment, Master, Ling the Elder, and the General flew down from the ancient tree without hesitation, followed closely by Wind Serpent King. Only Mo Qi remained in place, feeling an inexplicable sadness.
Huo Feng quickly appeared beside Clan Leader Mo Qi, looking at him anxiously and asking, “What about the Teleportation Array? Where are they going now?”
Looking at Huo Feng, Mo Qi replied, “I have no interest in power. Even if I were to go to the Otherworld, I wouldn't know what to expect. But you are different; I can sense that as long as you survive, your future will be extraordinary. So hurry and follow them. They are headed to the Mineral Palace. In front of that palace, where the throne is placed, there is a Teleportation Array. It will transport you to the location of the current throne, which is also the Teleportation Array leading to the Otherworld.”
Without delay, Huo Feng bowed to Mo Qi and flew down while saying, “Thank you, Mo Qi, the Clan Leader. If I succeed and am still alive, I will come back here to drink your Azure Fruit Wine.”
Watching Huo Feng depart, Mo Qi murmured, “I hope you can return alive. Our ancestors were forced there; your fate depends on your own fortune.”
With determination, Huo Feng headed towards the Mineral Palace. At this point, he could have reached it before Master and the others if he wanted to avoid detection.
Upon arriving at the Mineral Palace, Huo Feng noticed that Wind Serpent King was about to pass through while it seemed that Master and his companions had already gone through since no one else was present. Thus, he stopped Wind Serpent King, speaking in the universal language of beasts: “Wind Serpent, are you also going to the Otherworld?”
Looking at Huo Feng, Wind Serpent replied, “No. Our ancestors passed down that we are the guardians of this throne. Protecting it means ensuring that this Teleportation Array remains closed. Moreover, we guard our bloodline in the Otherworld, so I cannot allow any of you to pass.”
Seeing how urgently Wind Serpent rushed over, thinking it was also heading for the Otherworld, only to hear this response left Huo Feng feeling helpless. “Then let’s hurry over first,” he said.
After all, they had been working together for some time now, and since Huo Feng was not a bad person—otherwise, he would have killed Wind Serpent King already—under these circumstances, it made sense for them to first deal with those from the Thunderstrike Hall. Thus, together they passed through the Teleportation Array.
When they arrived on the other side, they found themselves in a vast expanse of snowy ground. Meanwhile, the three who had arrived earlier—Master, along with two others—were facing off against three towering Snow Giants, each standing four or five meters tall. The giants surrounded a place resembling an altar where a throne seemed embedded in its center.
At this moment, the General was gravely injured; clearly, they had been attacked by these three giants as soon as they arrived. While wearing a large black cloak that obscured his features, only Master kept his gaze fixed on the throne behind one of the giants. It appeared that the giants had no intention of attacking them directly; Huo Feng speculated that they were preventing anyone from crossing over that altar.
Observing closely, he noted that even the weakest of these three giants was at least at the advanced level of the Earth Vein Realm while the other two were Elementary Earth Vein beasts. The appearance of Huo Feng and his companions made Master's expression even darker; he occasionally cast sidelong glances at him as his frown deepened.
Feeling an oddly familiar aura emanating from Huo Feng, along with the ice on his shoulder changing form, prompted a reaction from him. With a smile, Huo Feng said to Master, “Does it feel familiar?”
As muscles rippled across his frame, he instantly transformed into his chubby baby-faced appearance from when he was at the Thunderstrike Hall. Seeing this transformation caused involuntary twitches on Master’s face as he incredulously exclaimed, “Impossible! How could someone who entered the Thunder Punishment Hell possibly come out alive?”
Huo Feng scoffed and said, "You think too highly of your Thunder Punishment Hell. I wanted to go in there myself; otherwise, do you really think you could control me? But don't worry, I've already destroyed your Thunder Punishment Hell, and I've also gotten what I wanted."
"Bastards," Master said angrily, his white hair standing on end as he glared at Huo Feng. "Once I get stronger in the Otherworld, I will definitely come back to kill you."
"With someone like you, old Fellow, do you think you can make it? You ruthless dog, I'll finish you off right now." Huo Feng charged towards Master.
Huo Feng's speed was so fast that it panicked Master, who couldn't even see Huo Feng's figure clearly. Without hesitation, he pushed the injured general towards Huo Feng with one hand while kicking Ling the Elder aside, sending him towards the three Snow Giants.
Immediately, the three Snow Giants raised their massive fists and slammed them down towards Ling the Elder. It was as if they were robots; even though one could have sufficed, all three attacked simultaneously as if controlled by something.
Huo Feng suddenly halted to catch the general, but Ling the Elder was not so fortunate. The attacks from the three Vein Realm Snow Giants could easily crush him to pieces.
At that critical moment, Master seized the opportunity and suddenly burst forth with speed, instantly flashing to the throne on the altar. By the time the Snow Giants reacted and tried to attack him, they found a Light Barrier rising around the throne, enveloping Master within it. No matter how the Snow Giants attacked, they couldn't harm him at all.
Master burst into wild laughter and said, "Hahaha... I've finally succeeded! Just wait here for me to come back and kill you."
In a flash of light, Master disappeared without a trace. The three Snow Giants roared in anger, raising their fists and pounding their chests. They then turned to glare at Huo Feng and his companions but did not attack; they only snorted out white steam from their nostrils, which showed their fury.
Huo Feng set the general down. The general was physically and mentally exhausted; he hadn't expected Master to treat him this way and felt extremely frustrated. "Go ahead and do it," he said.
Huo Feng looked at him and smiled. "Why would I kill you? We have no grievances against each other. Besides, you're the father of my friend Ruan Yiqing. That gives me even less reason to kill you, even if he won't consider me a friend anymore."
A fleeting shadow of sadness crossed Huo Feng's eyes before he continued, "General, you should leave. Staying here serves no purpose, and right now only you can control the vast Azure Calamity Nation; otherwise, it will descend into chaos."
"You are just taking advantage of my son's trust. You killed Third Elder; I won't believe that you'll let me go," the general stood up firmly and said.
Huo Feng shook his head helplessly. "I killed him because he always wanted to kill me and take my things. Believe it or not, if you don't leave now, you'll find yourself in a dead end here too."
With that, Huo Feng ignored him and spoke in Beast Language to Wind Serpent King. "Wind Serpent, do you know about these three Snow Giants? Their appearance is quite strange; logically speaking, those who have reached Elementary Earth Vein shouldn't behave like puppets."
"I don't know about this," Wind Serpent King replied with some frustration. "This is bad; we've already let one person through. Our Wind Serpent Clan in the Otherworld is facing disaster."
Ice Monarch transformed into a giant form and said to Wind Serpent King, "Since it's come to this, you might as well come with us. Your mission has failed anyway; there's no need to worry about so much now. Once we get there, we can support each other, and you can also find your Wind Serpent clan and tell them to hide."
Hearing Ice's words, the Wind Serpent King was suddenly enlightened, but then he helplessly said, "However, these three large Fellows are indeed a bit troublesome. This Teleportation Array won't last long and will revert to its original state, and that throne will automatically return to the Mineral Palace."
Upon hearing the Wind Serpent King's words, Huo Feng became anxious. "What should we do? Even if we want to kill these three large Fellows, it will take some time."
While they were talking, the general had already trembled down the mountain alone, leaving Huo Feng and the others here without any ideas.
Suddenly, Ice waved a claw and excitedly said, "I've got it! I have a plan."
"What is it? Hurry up!" Huo Feng was anxious and quickly looked up at Ice, who was as imposing as a mountain. The Wind Serpent King was also very interested in Ice now, his eyes filled with anticipation.
Ice mysteriously said, "Big brother, do you trust me?"
Huo Feng was eager to teleport over; the Teleportation Array was right in front of him. He didn't want to come this far only to fail at the last moment, so he quickly replied, "Of course I trust you! Just stop keeping me in suspense and hurry up; otherwise, it might be too late."
"Alright then, big brother. You transform into the body of the Golden Wyvern and hold them off for a while. I will coordinate with the Wind Serpent, and soon I will give you a big surprise." Ice still maintained an extremely mysterious demeanor.
For Ice, Huo Feng had long since trusted unconditionally. He said, "Okay, but don't take too long; those are three Elementary Earth Vein magical beasts."
