Chapter 993 Frost Monarch!
Ye Shao saw Jiang Hui"s feet were covered with ice too. He was sitting so the ice had already climbed up to his chest.
He was going to become an ice statue soon, but Jiang Hui still had a smile on his face. He looked as though the ice on his body, which was about to take his life, was non-existent.
A young person was on the edge of death but he didn"t look frightened at all. There was obviously something wrong with the scene. Unless this fellow was either an idiot or a lunatic, this shouldn"t be his reaction. However, he didn"t look like a lunatic or an idiot.
Dark Dragon was in deep thought. Light turned serious too. The expressions on Hades and Ninja couldn"t be seen so no one knew what they were thinking.
However, regardless of what was going through their minds, the ice was spreading up from Ling Lan"s chest. Within a few seconds, it had reached Ling Lan"s shoulder and was climbing up her neck.
As the ice reached her jaws, Ling Lan raised one of her eyebrows and said lightly, "This is not good. If it continues moving up, I won"t be able to talk."
The ice that was moving up from her jaw suddenly got suppressed. No, they were moving back. They moved down Ling Lan"s neck quickly like the tides in the sea.
In a blink of an eye, there were no signs of ice left on Ling Lan"s body. Not only that, the ice around Ling Lan was also starting to melt. Within the span of a few seconds, Ye Shao and Dibi Luya were also freed from the ice.
Light and Dark Dragon were surprised by this scene. "Who is this young man? He was able to escape from an attack of an imperial stage domain expert."
People as powerful as Light and Dark Dragon were able to sense a person"s age from his vigor of life. Thus, they knew that Ling Lan was still very young.
"Cough, I haven"t been out for many years so I didn"t know that there is such a powerful youngster." An old man with white hair walked towards them from afar. He had a crystallized ice walking stick in one hand. He walked towards them slowly, but he seemingly reached them within just a few steps.
A few meters in a single step. This was a technique only domain realm masters and above could understand.
The old man raised his head, revealing a face full of wrinkles. He opened his eyes slightly and looked at everyone through his squinted eyes. Everyone suddenly felt a chill up their spines. Even Light and Dark Dragon couldn"t help but shudder from the cold.
Frost Monarch"s understanding of the ice element seemed to have increased further over these years. Even without activating his domain, he was able to release his force of presence. Light and Dark Dragon had their guards up. They didn"t forget that Frost Monarch was one of the three kings of the Chaotic Land, the most powerful one at that.
"As expected of the Frost Monarch." Ling Lan bowed respectfully. From his action just now, she knew that his understanding of the ice element was way above hers. This was enough to gain her respect.

"Cough cough… Everyone calls me Frost Monarch because they respect me. Actually, I don"t have the right to be given this t.i.tle." Frost Monarch coughed and shook his head.
"Frost Monarch is the t.i.tle for the most powerful ice element master. You deserve this t.i.tle," Ninja refuted.
Light and Dark Dragons were enemies with Ninja but they still agreed with what he said.
"You all put feathers on my cap. Actually, before I enter the imperial stage through my physical skills, I shouldn"t use names that indicate I"m a king." Frost Monarch didn"t agree with what Ninja said.
Hades felt a little awkward. By right, Hades meant the king of h.e.l.l. However, Frost Monarch was right. A real king should be someone in the imperial stage. However, imperial stage was not so easy to enter. There were only nine people who managed to break through to imperial stage in the entire universe.
As for them, they were known as imperial stage domain experts but in actual fact, they were just half a step into the imperial stage. This half step was a huge difference.
"However, after meditating for more than ten years, your understanding of your domain had reached new heights. It won"t be long before you advance to the imperial stage." Ninja was in envy.
The more powerful a person becomes, the harder it gets for him to gain more understanding of his domain. He might even reach a bottleneck and never surpa.s.s himself ever again. Frost Monarch was already the most powerful among them. After he came out of his closed door mediation, his force of presence had gotten stronger. It seemed that his meditation was effective.
Frost Monarch sighed. "It"s not so easy. I don"t know if I"m able to enter the imperial stage when I"m alive." He looked at Ling Lan who was listening to them quietly. "This young man might advance to the imperial stage faster than me. He should be the Frost Monarch, not
me."
From what Frost Monarch said, Ling Lan was an ice element domain realm master that was very close to imperial stage too.
Light and Dark Dragon"s expressions changed drastically when they heard this. They looked at Ling Lan with vigilance. They would place much importance in people who were as powerful as them while being much younger than them.
Ninja and Hades turned to look at Ling Lan too. From their tightly clenched fist, everyone could tell that they were in great shock.
"Frost Monarch, you"ve spoken too highly of me. My understanding of the ice element is much less deep than yours," Ling Lan said honestly.
This was the truth. She wasn"t being humble. She was half step to imperial stage but Frost Monarch"s control of ice element was much more profound than her. She was still unable to release her domain energy unintentionally just by looking at people.
"This is embarra.s.sing. I"m more than a hundred years older than you. I"ve more time to understand the ice element." Frost Monarch said regretfully, "I"m already half a step into the coffin. Yet, you"re still young. You still have a long path ahead of yourself."
Ling Lan smiled and didn"t say anything. Whatever she said now would seem like boasting. She would feel bad if she boast in front of a dying old man.
"Enough of my lamenting. Little brother, I apologize for hurting you just now. However, the rules of the Chaotic Lands must be obeyed. I hope that you"ll not interfere with this matter." Frost Monarch didn"t want to offend a future king. Plus, Ling Lan managed to melt his ice, proving that she was not much weaker than him.
Plus, there were two half step imperial stage domain masters on their opponent"s side. If Ling Lan entered the battle, the strength of both sides would be equal. This wasn"t something Frost Monarch wanted to see.
