Peerless Immortal Son-in-law

"Mayor, what happened to you?" The guard turned pale and looked at the mayor worriedly, "How can this be?"    

    

"You didn't close the gates of life and death, and now that you've successfully broken through, how could you …"    

    

Hearing the guard general's words, the mayor bitterly smiled and shook his head.    

    

At this time, Ding Yi and Wen Yi walked over, looked at the City Lord and shook their heads as they sighed: "At this critical juncture of life and death, he forcefully came out. Although he temporarily obtained the power of Transcendence Stage, because of force, his cultivation had completely disappeared, and he might not even be able to preserve his life."    

    

"What?!" When the guard heard these words, his face paled.    

    

The reason why this huge city could endure until now was because the City Lord made wise decisions and had great strength, which was why he was barely able to hold on. If the City Lord's cultivation was crippled, he didn't know how long the city could hold on.    

    

"I can't just watch as you guys die miserably." The mayor shook his head again and smiled bitterly. He looked at the guard and said, "If I can't hold on this time, I'll have to leave the future revival of the family to you."    

    

"City lord, city leader, you cannot die! Our clansmen still need you to carry out our plan!" The guard tightly clenched the City Lord's hand, his voice trembling and mournful.    

    

Faced with this situation, Ding Yi was powerless, because his injuries were not caused by external forces, but because he forced his way out during seclusion. Not to mention healing other people, even Ding Yi himself was suffering from the backlash of the Grand Dao, so he was helpless as well.    

    

"What a pity, what a pity, I can't continue to guard the defense line here." The mayor's aura became weaker and weaker, to the point that he was no longer able to breathe. Fresh blood continued to flow from the corner of his mouth.    

    

Ding Yi sighed, squatted on the ground and asked: "Do you know about the Ice?"    

    

Now that the mayor's life was at stake, Ding Yi no longer cared about keeping it a secret. He just wanted to quickly find out if the Ice's true function was as Young Emperor said, and whether it could protect the entire northern defense line.    

    

Hearing Ding Yi's words, the City Lord, who was originally dispirited, suddenly had a look of excitement in his eyes. He suddenly raised his head and looked at Ding Yi: "Ice, has the Ice been cultivated?!"    

    

"Is that true?"    

    

Seeing the mayor's mood, Ding Yi frowned. He seemed to care a lot about the Ice.    

    

"It has been developed. This time, I came here because of Young Emperor's instructions for me to place the Ice into the Formation Aperture and activate the formation." At this point, Ding Yi paused for a moment before continuing, "This formation can cover the entire defense line?"    

    

Honestly speaking, Ding Yi didn't believe it. How could such a big formation be set up in such a short time? It could activate the defense and cover the entire northern defense line.    

    

It had to be known, the entire northern defensive line was extremely long, and many times bigger than the Capital City City. If one wanted to cover the entire northern defensive line, they had to at least be a level higher than the Dark Yellow Formation s of the Capital City.    

    

"That's right, there is indeed a super formation here." Who knew, the mayor's words actually confirmed Young Emperor's words.    

    

Following that, the city lord continued to speak and told Ding Yi about the formation here.    

    

So, there was originally a super formation here. No one knew who set it up and it enveloped the entire northern defense line. The reason they chose to station themselves in this place was also because it was one of the auxiliary Formation Apertures.    

    

The five giant cities formed a line of defense made from mountain rock flesh and blood just for the sake of waiting for the Ice to grow them. Once the Ice was successfully cultivated, they would be able to activate the super array and the entire northern defense line would no longer have to be on tenterhooks.    

    

"With the Ice activating the formation, I am relieved." The City Lord revealed a smile. This should be his only good news after failing the Gate of Life and Death. "However, I'll have to trouble you two to head to the Formation Aperture and activate the formation."    

    

"With my current condition, I won't be able to go in person."    

    

Hearing the City Lord's words, Ding Yi nodded his head. He originally wanted to go along with the request to personally place the Ice in.    

    

Wen Yi stood at the back without saying anything. Only now did he take out a small black pill from his storage bag and said, "Take this pill. It might save your life."    

    

After he finished speaking, he threw the pill out.    

    

The mayor took the pill, hesitated a bit, and then swallowed it.    

    

He was already on the verge of death, and even he wasn't sure if he could continue or not.    

    

If Wen Yi wanted to kill him, it would be easy, there was no need to harm him. If he ate this pill, he might have a chance of survival.    

    

After consuming the pill, his state of mind had slightly warmed up, and his face no longer looked as pale as before.    

    

"There's no time to lose. Tell me the location of the core of the formation, and we'll go start the formation right now." Seeing that the City Lord had gotten better, Ding Yi directly opened his mouth.    

    

His goal this time was to activate the formation. Now that he saw the huge city pay such a huge price to resist the beast race, the other regions were probably not that strong. In order to prevent such a disaster from happening again, Ding Yi decided to immediately head to the Formation Aperture and activate the formation.    

    

"Bring the two of you to the core of the formation and activate the formation." The mayor immediately understood and said to the guard.    

    

After hesitating for a moment, the guard knew that this matter was of the utmost importance, so he sent two people to take care of the Mayor. He then brought Ding Yi and Wen Yi out of the city in a hurry.    

    

"The eye of the formation is located in a snow-capped mountain, and it is not in the vicinity of the huge city. It is in front of us." The general pointed at the front of the city, at the northern territories with a grim look on his face.    

    

What did this mean? This meant that if they wanted to head to the eye of the Snow Mountain formation and activate the formation, they had to enter the northern territories. They could encounter the beast race at any time. The northern territories were too dangerous.    

    

Fortunately, with the strength of Ding Yi and Wen Yi, they had nothing to fear from these beasts.    

    

"Are there still people who have yet to leave the northern border?" On the way, Ding Yi suddenly asked.    

    

Although he felt that it would be difficult to withdraw even if there were people around, he still thought of Young Emperor's words and added a few more words.    

    

However, what he did not expect was that the general's words were out of their expectations, "Now that the northern territories have completely fallen, there are no more people who haven't retreated. Some have already died, and those villages have all been slaughtered to their limits."    

    

"We also sent people to try and evacuate the people from the nearest villages, but after wasting a great deal of energy, we finally found those villages. In the end, they all died." At this point, the guard shook his head helplessly.    

    

Even they, Evolver, found it hard to survive in such a cold environment, let alone ordinary people.
