The Legend Of Frozen Sovereign
Chapter 78: Testing that gives an advantage

After defeating the lizard monster that was somewhat similar to the previous dragon, Xuan Yu gazed towards the dark golden pill left from the body of the previous monster that still survived.

“Khkk!”

When he wanted to get close, Xuan Yu felt a great feeling of pain on his body with a piercing cold sensation, to the point that he was bowed to withstand the attacking pain.

‘It seems that I am too confident, even after being forged by the Dragon Illumination Ladder, I still do not have the conditions to move my full strength, let alone to the point of exerting the maximum output of True Icy Phoenix Qi, I still do not have the conditions to move my full strength, let alone to the point of exerting the maximum output of True Icy Phoenix Qi, so this is how it feels to be unable to control his own strength.’ Xuan Yu could only step down when the impact of his actions took place.

Xuan Yu had actually done a reckless act, due to the attacks that were deployed by him to kill the lizard monster that looked terrible earlier, he exerted his full strength by using the maximum output of True Icy Phoenix Qi, he exerted, and it weighed heavily on his body because it was still unable to.

So that he had to accept the consequences of his actions, and it was clear that it was very painful because he himself fell.

Yet at the same time, the dark golden pills that were each hovering in the air started to react strangely, and it turned into strands of energy that quickly ran towards Xuan Yu.

‘Ugh...this.’ Xuan Yu who was feeling better was confused when he felt that there was a strange energy entering his body.

It was not as detrimental as the evil energy in the Old Red Forbidden Land, but it was precisely excellent as it restored Xuan Yu's condition which was still in a condition affected by his carelessness, instead, and slowly restored the condition of his inner outer body to its fullest.

This was very surprising, as Xuan Yu sat down after regaining consciousness from the mutual impact of his actions, he saw the strands of dark golden energy that continued to enter endlessly into his body.

Not only did it restore its condition to its full potential, but it had somehow begun to strengthen its physical body thoroughly without exception, and its spirit power had also increased even if not by much.

‘Could this be compensation?’ thought Xuan Yu while remembering that this place is the path to the heritage location of the Dragon Monarch.

From what Xuan Yu knew, some extraordinary experts in the ancient times would usually leave some sort of test for anyone who wanted to obtain his legacy, he said, and that made Xuan Yu think that the media climbing the Dragon Illumination Ladder was one example.

Surely since this was related to the Dragon Monarch in the legends, then the level of the testing done by him would be different, aside from the fact that the gravitational pressure and the influence of the mysterious energy would be a hindrance, in every two thousand steps there is a challenge that must be faced.

“On the first thousand steps there is an accessible treasure room, and currently on the second step of the thousand I have to face dangerous strange monsters, but in the end I got the compensation corresponding to the level of difficulty..”.

“If my guess is correct, then on the third step I will enter the treasure room, and on the fourth step I will face a dangerous monster, it will continue over and over again until it reaches the top of this place.”

Xuan Yu realized the pattern given that he suspected that the process of climbing the Dragon Illumination Ladder was a test that forged and honed a person, rather than an obstacle to preventing anyone from obtaining an inheritance.

But out of the many occurrences on the Dragon Illumination Ladder, Xuan Yu discovered one fact that there was something of strength that felt contrary to what was inside him, which was, and this became even stronger as the dragon-like lizard monster showed a natural reaction of hostility, and vice versa to Xuan Yu although not that strong.

“From the many powers I have managed there are only two possibilities that trigger such a reaction, as this has to do with the Dragon Monarch... maybe one of them was once an enemy or something that he could not overcome?” Xuan Yu had so many thoughts about the condition he had just experienced.

But no matter what the circumstances were, Xuan Yu still had to continue his steps until the end, as he would stop stepping until he fell down and came out of this Dragon Illumination Ladder.

“Huff... what an incredible feeling, besides the strength of my physical body that increased significantly, my spirit power has also experienced a considerable increase, as well, indeed the distance is still there but I can feel that it is getting narrower.”

After finishing absorbing the strands of dark golden energy, Xuan Yu began to prepare to continue his steps towards the top of the Dragon Illumination Ladder, making his way to the top of the Dragon Illumination Ladder, and he also felt very happy because the increase experienced by him further narrowed the distance of his strength and control.

Right now in front of him was the two thousandth step one, Xuan Yu became a little nervous because on the rung of the thousandth step one a significant difference made him a little surprised, he said, so he was a little nervous while preparing his heart and confidence to set foot.

Tap...tap!

When Xuan Yu set foot on the next rung of stairs, he immediately experienced a powerful shock to his mind that left him barely aware of what he was going through, even then he did not know how strong the gravitational pressure was or how strong the heat radiated from the mysterious energy behind the stairs was.

‘Truly petty creature, do you really want someone to get your inheritance or not!!’

It was then that Xuan Yu was able to feel an unreasonable difference when setting foot on the two thousandth step one, but so it did not stop his steps despite having to suffer a lot.

......

At the top of the sky of the Old Red Forbidden Land, a majestic platform was as if it was the foundation base of a flying palace, a flying, there is a golden dome with a circular dragon carving pattern that protects the one place right in the middle of the platform.

Inside that had no light shining through the room, a large creature that seemed to be asleep opened its eyes, and once again woke up not by its will.

“It is disappointing, aside from the child with the power of a Phoenix, I did not see or feel someone with the corresponding potential, but the purity level of Bloodline Source that the child had was very strange.” The figure froze as if his consciousness was observing the situation within thousands of kilometers.

Even so he again closed his eyes with a slightly more patient feeling, because there was not much time for him to still maintain this condition, not to mention the fact that there was no decent figure.

“If nothing succeeds, then I will use the second method by wishing on the child with the power of the Ice Phoenix, whether this is fate or perhaps a trigger of the great destiny to come, I must remain optimistic for the future.” The figure again closed his eyes with a voice that sounded exhausted as if he was like an old man who could already be thousands of years old.
