Urban Powerhouse: Chaos Supreme-Chapter 1509 - 1455: The Beginning

"Ice Emperor? Great Relic Land?"

Hearing these two words, Lin Mo's face subtly changed color. Whether the Ice Hall on Blue Star was related to the Ice Emperor, and the fact that Xia Mengdie disappeared while trying to get medicine for him, all seemed to be intricately linked to that Ice Emperor.

Even the "Ice Cloud Netherworld Record" he cultivated was created by the Ice Emperor.

"Young master, don't you know about the Ice Emperor?" Seeing Lin Mo's puzzled and somewhat strange expression, Qing Su blinked her bright eyes and said softly.

"Who exactly is this Ice Emperor?"

Lin Mo nodded, looking at Qing Su as he asked. "The Ice Emperor isn't from the Canglan Star Domain but had once visited it and cultivated here for some time. These were tales I heard from the older generation cultivators. In truth, the Canglan Star Domain has always had legends about the Ice Emperor,

but there are many versions out there, and even I don't know which one is true," Qing Su said.

"The Ice Emperor was the most astonishing and outstanding big shot. Since the disappearance of the Ice Emperor and Emperor Shang ten thousand years ago, the universe has not seen an 'Emperor'-level expert," Qing Su said slowly.

Lin Mo frowned with sword-like brows, "What is the relationship between the Ice Emperor and Emperor Shang?" "Rumor has it the Ice Emperor was a disciple of Emperor Shang, his most stunningly talented female disciple, following in her master's footsteps to become an Emperor-level expert. But later, both disappeared, and no one knows what happened," Qing Su said softly, pursing her lips.

At this moment, Lin Mo's tense face was nonetheless churning with monstrous waves in his heart. If the woman in the Ice Hall on Blue Star was truly the Ice Emperor, then the creator of the Star Wheel Universe Map and the owner of the Shattered Star Stone would be that Emperor Shang.

The relics of both were left on Blue Star, what exactly happened ten thousand years ago? 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

Lin Mo faintly harbored a strange sensation, as if everything about him seemed to be tied to that Emperor Shang, and it seemed an invisible hand was manipulating him.

"Whew!" Exhaling a heavy and stale breath, the confusion in Lin Mo's eyes vanished, becoming more resolute. No matter what secret and conspiracy lurked behind, only with the strongest power could he investigate, and the Great Relic might hold clues about the Ice Emperor, perhaps leading him to Xia Mengdie.

"I must go to the Great Relic Land," Lin Mo gritted his teeth, a firm voice echoing in his heart.

...The peak of the Seven Gates Master Mountain stretched endlessly upward, standing as the tallest among the entire Seven Gates Continent, majestically imposing. Below the peak lay a vast valley, where many people had already gathered, bustling with crowded heads.

Among them, the presence of several with Star Sea Level auras was evident, clearly Hall Master-level figures from the Seven Sects, all sitting on the observation platform above the valley.

This tournament was conducted in one-on-one battles, divided into four groups simultaneously, picking champions from each group, then proceeding to a final showdown.

"I must secure a spot to enter the Great Relic,"

Gazing at the dense crowd, Lin Mo transformed into a streak of flowing light and dashed forward, a resolute voice echoing in his heart. Entering the valley, many greeted him along the way, their eyes showing a hint of awe, no surprise given Lin Mo's astonishing performance in the elimination rounds, known by all Seven Sects disciples. Of course, that astounding display also made respect emerge in their eyes.

After all, whether it was within the Seven Sects or the entire Cultivation World, there was only one survival rule—stronger is respected.

Pushing through these 'enthusiastic' disciples, Lin Mo reached the valley center, finally letting out a sigh of relief. Of course, aside from those obviously fawning disciples, there were still over a dozen slightly sharp gazes falling upon him.

The owners of those sharp gazes were evidently the genius disciples not quite convinced by Lin Mo, though such 'discontent' could not muster enough courage within them to challenge Lin Mo.

"Mr. Lin..."

"Mr. Lin, I saw your battles in the last elimination round; you were incredible!" Rain King walked over with a big grin, laughing as he said, "But I didn't even pass the elimination round, sigh."

"Keep trying for next time," Lin Mo patted his shoulder with a smile, offering comfort.

"Congratulations, Mr. Lin, in this tournament you'll surely earn a great spot." A graceful figure like a butterfly swayed with a willow-like waist, and she slowly approached Lin Mo, smiling gently, incredibly captivating.

"Thanks for the good words, Miss Liu." Lin Mo looked at her and smiled.

Liu Qingyang smiled slightly and said, "This time, only three cultivators from Blue Star entered the tournament, but next time, I will surely obtain the tournament qualifications."

"You definitely will." In this gathering, mostly Blue Star cultivators were present, somewhat familiar to Lin Mo, who greeted them, then noticed Lord Tao, Chen Yan, and others arriving from afar, as esteemed geniuses from Blue Star, Lord Tao's presence sparked numerous whispered discussions among disciples.

After all, Lord Tao was personally recognized and recommended by the Sect Leader to the Inner Sect as a genius disciple, also shattering records in the Illusion Realm with extraordinary magic talent; his defeat of Lin Wuya elevated Lord Tao's reputation to a highly prestigious level.

"Lin Mo, lucky for me I didn't end up in your group this time, or I would've had a hard time against a freak like you." Chen Yan came up to Lin Mo and said. Lin Mo's and Lord Tao's tremendous progress had dimmed the brilliance of fellow top genius Chen Yan from Blue Star, but Chen Yan seemed to have accepted this reality. Especially after witnessing Lin Mo's performance in the elimination rounds, he had even less confidence in defeating Lin Mo.

"But don't get complacent; I'll keep pushing myself to surpass you one day." Chen Yan clenched his fists, a determined look shining in his eyes.

Regarding Chen Yan's personality, Lin Mo could only helplessly offer a wry smile, "In this tournament, I hope you achieve a good placement as well."

"Lin Mo, if possible, I'd like to face you this time," suddenly, Lord Tao, who had been silent, directed his gaze at Lin Mo and calmly said.

"I look forward to it."

Lin Mo met his gaze directly, without a hint of evasion, his eyes filled with intense fighting spirit. On Blue Star, Lin Mo had always regarded Lord Tao as his target to chase, especially when he witnessed Lord Tao slay a Galaxy-level Beginner beast among the Emperor Dragon Beasts. At that time, Lord Tao was an insurmountable wall before him, only now... Lin Mo was confident enough to challenge him.

And Lord Tao was also amazed at the speed of Lin Mo's growth, that guy he once didn't take seriously as an opponent, now sparked a deep interest!

While the crowd was chatting, two of the Seven Sects' Hall Masters flew into the sky, white robes fluttering in the wind, their sharp gazes sweeping over the crowd. "The tournament starts now!"
