IMMORTAL ICE EMPRESS: PATH TO VENGEANCE - Season 2 Episode 99

All of a sudden, an oppressive aura reigned over the world, unfortunately only a few creatures were alive to experience this. Three of those creatures being Mira, Maria, and Celaine.

They instantly stopped cultivating and walked out of their little cave to greet Elenei, who should be there any second.

As they thought, only a few seconds later, a massive Frost-Fire Phoenix gracefully landed in front of them.

“I have returned, Mira. I do hope my findings bring you success so that you may better assist me.” Elenei greeted curtly, neither arrogant nor humble.

She shook off a large necklace and dropped it in front of Mira, which she assumed was some sort of Spatial Necklace.

Mira picked it up and briefly looked inside, but was utterly shocked by what she saw. It’s not that she was expecting something like this, but actually seeing it happen is another thing. It really makes one wonder why they struggled so much for the pitiful amount of loot that took them months, if not close to a year to gather when they can just instruct a giant bird to loot everything in their surroundings and bring it to them.

She saw mountains of fire elemental treasures in this Spatial Necklace. Ores, ingots, herbs, buckets of lava and magma, weird orbs that are radiating a ton of fire essence, fire-related beasts, stones that seemed to be Spirit Stones except having a fire affinity, and there was even a weak Fire Elemental Essence in there as well.

She wasn’t sure if all of these items will be needed or if she’ll need more, but this should be sufficient for a while.

“Almost all of the items in there are Rank 6(Core Formation) and above, with a few like the Fire Elemental Essence that is for ranks below that. Let me explain a few things that you might not know about, mainly the Fire Essence Core and the Fire Spirit Stones. The Fire Essence Core is the orb-looking thing and this thing is what usually produces lava or magma in a Volcano. They can be found in other places, but they are most commonly found in volcanoes. The Fire Spirit Stones are just like how they sound. They are Spirit Stones, except with a fire affinity. One thing to note though is that they are less effective than regular Spirit Stones for people that don’t have a Fire Affinity and are more effective for people that do.” Elenei explained and Mira nodded.

“I don’t know if this will be enough, but I’m sure that with all of these resources and you washing me with your Frost-Fire, I should be able to make significant progress in controlling the element I call Yin Fire. Having that ability will give me more confidence in being able to assist you.” Mira said, pleased with the direction things are going in, but Elenei was a bit confused.

“Yin Fire? I think I heard you mention something like that, but what do you mean exactly?” Elenei knew what Mira wanted to do, but it seemed things were slightly different than what she had originally thought.

Mira didn’t say anything and just summoned her Yin Magma.

Elenei was immediately drawn towards such a peculiar ability and started to examine it.

“This is what I call Yin Magma since it’s magma, but the properties and abilities differ from the original. My Physique assimilated magma into it as I was tempering my body, granting me this ability, yet changing it to something of Yin nature rather than Yang.” Mira explained.

Elenei was listening but didn’t take her eyes off of this weird ability. She touched to see how it would affect her, and to her surprise, it was quite similar to how her Frost-Fire ability worked.

The only difference being that it wasn’t trying to turn her into ash or freeze them to death, but was similar to poison or acid yet was slightly different. She couldn’t figure out what to compare it to as it was extremely unique. It just felt like this Yin Magma had control over whether it wanted to heal/assimilate with her or destroy her. Right now it wasn’t threatening, but Elenei was sure that if this ability was a bit stronger this would be an extremely terrifying ability.

She almost wanted to tell Mira that there was no need to go any further and to just use this ability on her, but the only problem was the Earth element mixed in. What she needed were Fire and Ice, anything other than those two elements wouldn’t be compatible with her.

“Very interesting. I’ve never seen such a peculiar yet terrifying ability. I understand now why you need these Fire elemental resources. If you were able to use this Yin Fire combined with your ice, then the chances of success are significantly raised. Alright! From now until I go back into egg-form, I will do my utmost to look for anything fire and ice related!” Elenei declared with excitement.

She didn’t tell Mira, but she was almost 100% sure that if Mira provided this stuff to her while she’s in her egg form, she’ll come out into something unique, horrifying. She might even be able to rival the Golden-Empyrean Winged-Wolf!

Mira nodded and started transferring all of the materials into her Storage Ring before handing the necklace back to Elenei.

“Hey Sister Elenei, won’t you be sad to lose the cultivation you’ve worked so hard for over the years? I know I would be devastated about having to restart everything and I’m only in my twenties!” All of a sudden Maria spoke up and asked Elenei.

​ “Not really. With my current cultivation, it would take a miracle for me to break through to the next major stage. Actually, Mira is that miracle. And I think you’re mistaking something here. When I go through my rebirth back into my egg form, I’ll still be cultivating albeit subconsciously as I’ll be asleep through it all. With Mira providing me resources and fixing my bloodline problem, I might even be born in a realm of power close to my current one. I have no idea how strong I’ll be when I’m reborn, but I know it won’t be weak!” Elenei spoke with pride, but these remarks only caused all three of their faces to turn dark.

These damnable mythical beasts have it so nice! They are able to be born stronger than most people and can sometimes even be born as an Immortal! What horseshit is this?! Why can’t we be born as a fucking overpowered chicken or an oversized lizard?!

The more Mira and the others thought about it, the more frustrated they got.

“Hmph! I’ll be sure to put that ‘strength’ to good use when you hatch and draw out your full potential.” Mira muttered while staring intently at Elenei, which caused a shiver to run down her spine.

She was sure that her life would be anything but easy after her rebirth is complete and she hatches.

“Alright! Enough of that! Let’s talk about our plans moving forward now that everyone’s here. We can either stay on this mountain for a few more weeks before heading out or leave for the next world right now.” Mira said, but Maria and Celaine didn’t need any time to think about their decision.

“Let’s stay here for a few more weeks. I’m close to a breakthrough and staying on this mountain is extremely beneficial.” Celaine said.

“I agree with Celaine. I might not be close to a breakthrough, but this mountain is incredibly beneficial to my cultivation! Plus, we have Sister Elenei here to transport us! That’ll save us plenty of travel time!” Maria suggested which caused Mira to nod.

“Very well, we’ll stay here for the next few weeks. Elenei, come with me. I want to try absorbing a sliver of your Frost-Fire to test its effects.” Mira said before turning around and leaving.

Elenei followed after Mira, as she was also curious to see what would happen as well.
