The Pass of Life and Death

As Chen Yan fell with the collapsing Ice Wall, the instant countless shards buried him, he returned to the ancient palace.

"You are the second martial artist to pass the first trial of the Dao."

The Immortal Skirt Woman spoke from the throne.

Ying's whole body was wrapped in Black Mist as she looked toward Chen Yan. Beneath the mist, her eyes were perfectly calm.

This Six Paths Genius had taken much longer than she had to clear the trial, but passing it was proof enough of the firmness of his Dao Heart.

The Immortal Skirt Woman glanced at Chen Yan and Ying.

"Now, the final trial stands before you both. I must warn you: if you end things here, you can claim your treasures and leave.

"But if you choose to continue into the third trial, you will face the danger of death."

When the Immortal Skirt Woman's voice fell, Ying furrowed her brow slightly.

The danger of death?

She asked, "What will we receive if we pass the third trial?"

"I will preach the Dao to you for one day."

The Immortal Skirt Woman lifted her chin and smiled.

"Do you know who I am?"

Ying's expression wavered slightly. Then she bowed.

"I pay my respects to the Lord of Elements."

Ying's face filled with reverence, and her heart began to race.

Chen Yan narrowed his eyes. This being was actually the Lord of Elements.

Was she the original body, or a Divine Soul?

The Lord of Elements...

When Chen Yan had taken part in the College Entrance Exam Secret Realm, he had learned some secrets in Slaughter Village.

In the story of Slaughter Village, Snow Wife was the son of Zulian Hen, the village chief, and Zulian Hen had caused the deaths of his son's entire family.
