If they hadn't gone to the Black Green Mountain Range that one time, if they hadn't suffered those casualties and set off a chain reaction, the Extreme Ice Sect would never have ended up in such a state.
Did the so-called calamity really exist? Did the so-called Pillar of Destiny really exist?
Or was all of this nothing more than an absurd outcome they had brought about themselves?
The Extreme Ice Sect's Sect Master was overcome with confusion. Could the Tail they had obtained through so much hardship really save the Extreme Ice Sect?
"Is this vast Extreme Ice Sect really going to be wiped out in my generation?"
The Sect Master clenched his fists.
Even if it cost him his life, he didn't want the Extreme Ice Sect to be wiped out.
The Extreme Ice Sect Disciples who had received the Bloodlight Ice Lotus's signal were surely on their way.
Their only chance of survival was to hold out until help arrived, then find an opportunity to escape under the disciples' protection. As long as they could make it back to the Extreme Ice Sect, the formations protecting its mountain gate might still give them a chance to save the sect.
Throughout this, the only thing he could do was...
Frost gradually formed in the Extreme Ice Sect Sect Master's eyes. Ice spread outward from him, freezing the ground.
"Oh? Getting serious now?"
The Blazing Fire Sect's Sect Master curled his lips into a smile.
Watching his old rival's final, desperate struggle was an enjoyable sight.
The elders beside the Blazing Fire Sect's Sect Master all sneered. Flames rose around them as they circulated their techniques, waiting for the Sect Master's command to attack.
The Blazing Fire Sect's Sect Master didn't waste any words. He swept his hand forward.
