"You took a while to get here," the snow man said .
"Were you waiting for me?" Ye Qingyu smiled and continued, "If I rushed over, I would have missed out on many beautiful views . "
"If you continue making your way forward, there will be five checkpoints you'll need to pass . It won't be an easy task making your way up this mountain," the snow man said as he slowly rose to his feet and held his long spear with both hands . Then, abundant energy that was as full as the sun slowly unfurled and the snow that covered his body instantly disappeared to reveal his burly feature, handsome and tough features, as well as an undeniable will to fight .
Ye Qingyu nodded and said, "Your Highness, many thanks for your guidance . Are you the guardian of the first checkpoint?"
The snow man was none other than the third prince of the Mzar Race, Yin Kaishan .
He didn't deny it either and answered, "You're right . I'm the guardian . "
"If the matchless third prince of the Mizar Race is the guardian of the first checkpoint, then the remaining four checkpoints would be even more challenging," Ye Qingyu's expression changed slightly . Although he had never exchanged blows with the third prince of the Mizar Race, he knew how terrifyingly powerful the Heaven's pride of the Mizar Race was . Yang Wanqu, the Young Lord of Sinful Pit and the others paled in comparison to him . This was the true top-level Heaven's pride and before Ye Qingyu's period of self-isolation, he had even speculated that if he were to run into the third prince of the Mizar Race, he would definitely find it challenging to beat him .
"I don't know who other guardians of the next few checkpoints are," Yin Kaishan the third prince of the Mizar Race said . "However, you're right to deduce that they are all terrifying . They are so powerful to the point that I wouldn't dare to face them . "
"But I need to scale the mountain, so I guess I'll just have to pass through one checkpoint at a time," Ye Qingyu said with a smile . Then, the white mist that swirled around him together with all his sweat suddenly vanished without a trace . He looked like he was in great spirits as he did some stretches and said, "I've long wanted to battle against the third prince . With all due respect, it is my opinion that very few experts throughout the Vast Thousand Worlds live up to their title as a Heaven's Pride and you're the only one who ignites my will to fight . "
Yin Kaishan was slightly surprised by Ye Qingyu's words .
He had planned to say these words to Ye Qingyu but to his surprise, Ye Qingyu said these words before he did .
At that moment, he suddenly respected Ye Qingyu as a fellow hero .
Yin Kaishan was well-aware of the foreign domains' perception of him in recent years and knew that they had labeled him as a fool who had been bewitched by the Four Stars Holy Girl . This was the same opinion that many within the imperial court of the Mizar Race held as well . He knew that they despised him beneath their respectful facade and he had seen too many people who had the same reaction, including those who knew him extremely well .
Therefore, he hadn't expected Ye Qingyu who he had only met a few times on opposing sides to hold such a high opinion of him .
If anyone else had said those words, Yin Kaishan would've probably brushed it off and remained unmoved but since those words came from Ye Qingyu, the weight and significance that they held were completely different .
"Look below at the myriad of foreign races who have gathered . They are like a heap of loose sand," Yin Kaishan used the tip of his spear to point toward the bottom of the cliff and said, "You've made a wise choice by not encouraging these foreign races to follow you . "
Ye Qingyu took a few steps forward to stand beside Yin Kaishan and looked down at the scene below .
Through the snowstorm, he could clearly see the bottom of the mountain where he had battled earlier from this vantage point . Almost 10,000 foreign race experts continued to wait at the vast plains outside the entrance to the mountain path and as he looked down at this group from above, they indeed resembled an army of ants . It was had to associate these group with the top-level experts of the Vast Thousand Worlds that they were supposed to be from this angle .
The authority of Quasi-Emperors pervaded the entire Capital Sky Peak so the foreign race experts at the foot of the mountain would naturally not be able to spot them above and wouldn't know that they were being watched .
Ye Qingyu realized that Yin Kaishan must've witnessed his astonishing battle earlier on .
"I'm not sure if I'd be able to defeat you," Yin Kaishan said as he retracted his long spear . "Please go ahead . "
Ye Qingyu was slightly stunned .
"Many thanks," he didn't stand on ceremony either .
Although meeting Yin Kaishan had ignited a strong combat will in him, it clearly wasn't the best time for them to battle .
He saluted him with both hands, then he walked to the edge of the cliff and leaped up in the void . There was another cliff that was about 10 meters away and after he landed, the winding mountain paths reappeared . As he headed up the mountain earlier, he had already noticed that the path up the mountain was on the other end of the cliff . However, since the Quasi-Emperor's mighty force field blanketed this entire area, it would have been extremely hard even for an average Great Saint to jump even 10 meters . The difficulty level was pretty high .
Fortunately, it was only a distance of 10 meters, so it was nothing to him .
Yin Kaishan who was standing on the opposite end of the cliff let out a soft sigh .
Even without the Four Stars Holy Girl's instruction for him not to engage Ye Qingyu, he wouldn't have attacked either .
"He's an outstanding talent who managed to kill 10,000 single-handedly . I don't want to make things even difficult for you under such circumstances . I hope that you'll truly be able to fulfill your wish of scaling the mountain peak to look at the most beautiful and frightening view in the world!"
He gazed after Ye Qingyu as he disappeared along the winding paths .
"The guardian of the second checkpoint was still someone from the Four Stars Sect… What exactly is the relationship between the Four Stars Sect and the 'camp'?"
Ye Qingyu wiped the blood off his sword .
Knife qi and sword slash marks could be seen all around the surrounding mountain face and ice rocks and there was a dead body 10 meters away . All signs showed that a fierce battle had just ended .
