When 'God' Decides To Start Over-Chapter 963 - 372: Ice Breaking Barrier_2

If it were before, Li Xiu would not be using the Ice Ashes at this point, opting instead to pause for a while, wait for the absorbed heat to be converted, and then continue using the Ice Ashes.

Now, with the Heaven-Burning Demon Body, there's no need for such trouble. Such heat doesn't pose a challenge to the Heaven-Burning Demon Body.

After passing the halfway point, the frozen snow pillars became much fewer. Only Spirit Forging Level experts could withstand the extreme cold and make it to this point.

From the size of the snow pillars, it's clear that they're not freezing human Trial Takers inside.

"Trial Takers coming here is one thing, but why are these Demon Spirits climbing the mountain too?" Li Xiu knew from records that many frozen Demon Spirits lay here, but didn't know why they were frozen.

The Ice Peak is supposed to host only the Ice Bone Yin Spirit Beast, where Divine Position Demon Spirits are found. Ordinary Demon Spirits should steer clear, so why are these Demon Spirits daring to tread this mountain?

The further he went up, the fewer frozen snow pillars there were, and near the summit, they were entirely gone.

The heat converted from the Ice Ashes reached an astounding level, enough to melt steel by this point.

However, Li Xiu reached the summit effortlessly, thanks to the powerful immunity of the Heaven-Burning Demon Body.

Upon reaching the summit, Li Xiu discovered a pile of snow atop it.

"A creature actually reached the summit; could it be a Divine Creature?" Li Xiu mused in surprise.

It wasn't easy for him to reach the summit even with the Ice Heart, Ice Ashes, and Heaven-Burning Demon Body, so the idea that a creature had made it there piqued his curiosity.

Li Xiu examined the snow pile, which was only half a person's height, a height unlikely for a human Trial Taker.

He cleared the snow pile away and was surprised to find a human Trial Taker inside.

The human Trial Taker was sitting cross-legged on the ground, explaining why it appeared so short.

"It really is a Trial Taker!" Li Xiu studied the person, slightly astonished.

That was a middle-aged man dressed in a long white robe, appearing quite upright and giving off a righteous aura.

His facial expression looked calm, lacking the typical despair and helplessness seen in Trial Takers on the brink of death.

"Who is this person? I've never heard of him before." Li Xiu recalled the records of the Ice Bone Yin Spirit Beast and found no mention of a human Trial Taker on the summit.

"It's odd. For a Trial Taker to make it here, even if they're not of Divine Position, they must be a pinnacle Spirit Forging Level figure. How could such a person die here without someone to attend to their remains?" Li Xiu found it peculiar.

"To meet here is fate. I'll move you before I lure out the Ice Bone Yin Spirit Beast. A fierce battle might affect you, which wouldn't be ideal." Li Xiu picked up the person's body and headed down the snowy slope.

He walked until he reached halfway down the mountain, where he set the person down.

"Rest here for a while. Once I've killed the Ice Bone Yin Spirit Beast, I'll come back to find you a safe resting place." With that, Li Xiu turned to head back to the summit.

He indeed planned to return and bury the human Trial Taker's body and possibly examine the Demon Spirits' bodies for valuable items.

There should be several Spirit Forging Level Demon Spirits frozen here, and their Demon Cores would be a considerable wealth, which Li Xiu wouldn't let go to waste.

"Young man, you're not experienced enough to kill the Ice Bone Yin Spirit Beast." A suddenly heard an aged voice from behind him as he began to walk.

Li Xiu stopped, slightly startled, and turned around to see the middle-aged man once thought to be an ice sculpture, opening his eyes and looking at him.

"So you weren't dead?" Li Xiu was at a loss, wondering why the man hadn't spoken when he moved him earlier.

"I was quietly cultivating, and here you are moving me without a word, yet you ask why I'm not dead?" said the middle-aged man without any expression.

Despite looking middle-aged, his voice sounded as old as a man nearing his end, very peculiar.

"It was indeed my mistake. May I ask your name?" Li Xiu bowed slightly, apologizing.

"Modao Cang." The middle-aged man pronounced his name with pride, as if his name alone was worth being proud of.

Unfortunately, Li Xiu had never heard the name and, after pondering, asked, "Are you from the Mo Family?"

"You've never heard of my name?" The middle-aged man glared at him, as if not knowing his name was unimaginable.

"Ahem, I honestly haven't." Li Xiu admitted.

Modao Cang's eye twitched slightly, snorting, "No wonder you dared to come here alone. Truly, ignorance is fearless."

"If you have nothing else, I'll be on my way." Li Xiu didn't wish to waste time talking with Modao Cang. He had limited time and needed to kill the Ice Bone Yin Spirit Beast to obtain its Divine Position Gemstone, pushing up the Evil Spirit Token to Divine Position.

"Hold on, what's your name?" Modao Cang suddenly called after Li Xiu.
