Chapter Eighty: The Evening Approaches

drifted from afar to his ears.Jiang Wang sat up, feeling a strange sensation in her body. However, before she could investigate further, a woman dressed in a black gown and veiled in black gauze had...The largest mountain range in the snowy region is called "Extreme Celestial Gate".

Also known as "Celestial Mountains".

The highest peak in the Tianque Mountain Range of the Arctic is called "Everlasting Holy Winter." It is said to be the oldest ice peak in the snow region, standing since ancient times. Through the changing tides of time and the constant transformation of all things, it has remained steadfast, along with the ice and snow that have accompanied it throughout the ages, together they have formed the Arctic Tianque we see today.

It is also the "peak that never melts above Tian Shan" that Bai Guanji often talks about.

The thick, heavy snow cannot hide the perilous nature of this peak.

As you go up the mountainside, white mist sets in.

Above the boundless white mist, are the thunderclouds that have persisted for centuries.

Above the billowing sea of clouds, the sun shone brightly, illuminating thousands of miles.

The Eternal Holy Winter Peak protruded from the Sea of Thunder, thousands of meters high. It was like a spearhead, with the Sea of Thunder as its plume.

At the peak of the mountain, where snow never melted, sat a cold and austere man with black hair that cascaded down his shoulders.

Of course, he was Fu Huan.

Back then, when the Divine Thunder Realm ascended, the strongest warriors from both the human and demon races clashed across the "Causality Window" constructed through Cicada Dharma Affinity and Doe-Nature Void Structure. He was one of the ones who fought on behalf of the human race.

His credentials are extraordinary. He was already a master of the Way before the founding of the Snow Kingdom!

It was he and the founder of Xueguo, Hong Junyan, who together established this mighty northwest nation, reigning over the snowy regions and guarding the celestial gate at the edge of the world.

He is also one of the few peak powerhouses who have been active since the beginning of the new era of self-cultivation.

In the period when the ancient era was drawing to a close and the new age of cultivation was just beginning, there were countless prodigies who emerged in the mortal world. However, as time passed, the order of the world stabilized, and those brilliant stars that once shone brightly in the heavens gradually dimmed. Some of those familiar names perished, some vanished into seclusion, some retreated to cultivate diligently, each pursuing their own goals: either for the sake of all beings or for transcendence. They were all less visible to the public eye.

Eminent figures, like the renowned Zhenjun Zi Xu Zong Dezhen, practically never descended Mount Yujing after ascending it.

Only Fu Huan remained active on the stage of the present world.

This is the translation:

He was the one who assisted Lord Hong Junyan in founding the nation; he personally penned the tenets of the Frost teachings;he was the one who stabilized the situation in Xue Guo after Lord Hong Junyan's death;he is the one who, once every hundred years, selects "Children/Daughters of Winter" and takes them as his direct disciples, nurturing generations of talented individuals for Xue Guo; and he was also the one who, after the death of the former Frost Immortal Lord, forced the Northern Heavenly Master Wu Dao You to write a pledge in the Ancient Demon-Subduing Alliance, guaranteeing Xue Guo's continuation for a thousand years...

Such a person's status in the snowy country is self-evident.

He is history, and he is the present. He is a guidepost, and he is a pillar.

This is a test.

He is not a god, but in the hearts of the people of the snowy country, he holds a status higher than that of a deity.

At this very moment, he was dressed in a loose thin shirt, barefoot, sitting alone in the snow.

He seemed to have been sitting there for a long time, completely still. His eyes were fixed straight ahead, lost in thought. The sea, the snow-covered peaks, the heavens—they were all before him, yet he saw none of them.

Until a certain moment, snowflakes began to fall before him, forming a human shape and kneeling quietly on the ground.

Fu Huan blinked her eyes, and the world came alive.

"Ming Shi ah," he opened, "How many years have you been a bishop"

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Winter Diocese Bishop Shen Ming-shi, the leader of the Five Great Bishops of Rinding, also known as...the number one true master of the Snow Domain!

At this time, kneeling in front of Fu Huan, I answered steadily, "Three hundred and sixteen years."

His voice was like snow, drifting in the air and still clear. Once it landed, it vanished.

“Time... time flies so fast.” Fu Huan said with a strange tone: “Hong Xingjian has grown up under your watch.”

“Yes, Your Majesty is still young.” Shen Ming said.

Fu Huan said again, "Has someone from Taixu Pavilion come"

Shen Ming shi replied, "It's Jiang Wang. You once reached out across the distance and brought him back to the human world from the demon realm."

"A hero in his youth!" Fu Huan made a short comment, then asked, "What is he doing now"

>

Shen Ming said, “He...didn't do anything. He was busy the first day, going to Hanhua City and meeting Naran Longzhi. He chatted with Emperor Dong and even arrested some criminals to take to the Hanhua City government office. Then he took Wei Yu—and that was it. The rest of the time, he just stayed in Taixu Pavilion's original Taixu Jiao Lou, meditating and cultivating.”

Fu Huan chuckled softly: "He's a smart one, aren't we the dumb ones"

"The illusory realm is already in full swing, the human tide unstoppable. The complete opening of the Snow Country is inevitable." Shen Ming sighed deeply: "Sooner or later. Are you... ready"

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Fu Huan didn't answer, just looked outside the mountains, gazing at the distant place obscured by the eternal thunderclouds: "Look over there, what do you see"

“The sky, thunderclouds, and snow.”

“Farther away.”

Shen Ming said, “Kill intent, resentment.”

Fu Huan said: “In ancient times, the human emperor Fuxi made a covenant with hundreds of tribes, swearing an oath, ‘The human race shall not perish, nor shall the hundred tribes perish,’ thus gaining the support of the hundred tribes and uniting them to fight against the demons. Later, they also persuaded the dragon clan to turn against them, ultimately overturning the ancient Heavenly Court and ending the dark age.”

But the myriad races, proud and greedy, were insatiable in their demands, repeatedly asking for more. Their nature was rebellious and defiant, refusing to be controlled, and they frequently stirred up chaos.

“Thus, the great cost paid by Emperor Shennong allowed him to bypass the ancient oath. He joined forces with Panwu, the Ancestral Dragon Emperor, to launch the War of a Hundred Clans, known as 'Dragon and Human, Annihilate a Hundred Clans'. A portion of the ancient clans escaped to the heavens, while another part completely surrendered, merging into humanity. The vast majority were slaughtered. The resentment of the fallen powerful beings of the Hundred Clans remained undiminished, festering in the darkest depths, at the setting sun... transforming into Asuras.”

“Ming Shi,” Fu Huan asked, “Today’s people follow the ancients, many can only guess. You say that in ancient times, the hundreds of tribes were indeed frequently causing chaos.”Shen Ming Shi remained composed. “Perhaps.”

Fu Huan sighed: "Yes, perhaps there is."

“We have been prepared to open for a long time, it just takes some time.” Shen Ming shi said softly: “With you here, whoever it is, should be given some patience.”

“Male Asuras, female Rakshasas, this clan was born for slaughter.” Fu Huan said: “The world knows that Qin State guards the Yuquan at the foot of Wu Guan, locking the Wei River. But they don’t know that the Snow Country also guards the entrance to the Yuquan. Xu Wang killed A Yeji, shaking the world. Could it be that I haven't killed an Asura King”

He stood up in the snow, barefoot, and walked towards the cliff edge: "What is the Celestial Gate of the Arctic It is the Heavenly Gate of the human world! The great sun has fallen into the abyss here, so the sky wants to set."

“To some extent, this is fair,” Shen Ming Shi knelt and remained motionless: “We refuse to communicate with the outside world, and our honor is not known.”

“There are three entrances to the Netherworld, one in the Qin Kingdom, one in the Snow Country, and one on Mount YuJing. The entrance on Mount YuJing was completely sealed off as far back as the ancient times. So after the Daoist ascension of new era, it is the Qin Kingdom and the Snow Country that bear the responsibility together.” Fu Huan said with a sigh: "Hong JunYan regretted until his death - it was a pity that he guarded the Netherworld just like the Snow Country, and had the merit of suppressing the Asuras, yet the Snow Country failed to dominate the world. Not only did they fail to become the unrivaled power, but they couldn't even establish their own domain like the Jing Kingdom and the Mu Kingdom.”

Shen Ming Shi pondered, "I've always found it puzzling why Taizu didn't venture east back then."

Fu Huandao: "The main reason is our misjudgment. At that time, it was widely recognized that the national system would become the mainstream of the present world, and the power of the times was embodied in the state. Ji Yusu built Tiangjing first, establishing the first country. In the following twenty years, various countries emerged like mushrooms after a rain, and all kinds of ambitious figures appeared on the stage, but they were all easily crushed before Ji Yusu's military might... Until Daoli Twenty-Four Years, Gu Yanqiu ascended the throne in Dongyu and established Yangguo, which was the first time to truly curb Ji Yusu's frenzied expansion."

“The snowy region is strategically advantageous, difficult to attack and easy to defend. It's a good place to build a nation behind closed doors. My choice to establish our kingdom here with Hong Junyan was to avoid having the nascent regime crushed easily in these turbulent times. We seek a period of stability for development.”

Back then, Ji Yusu, Gu Yanqiu, Ying Yunian, Helian Qing Tong, Zong Dezhen... were all peerless heroes, each more ruthless than the last. The heroes fought each other, and war engulfed the land. They turned the world into a blood-soaked grinding disc, slaughtering countless ambitious men.

"Hong Junyan believed that we should accumulate strength and bide our time. When the world is in great chaos, and all parties are exhausted, we will then advance eastward and southward, unifying the land and establishing our dominance. We shall then use the pretext of suppressing the Asuras to seal off the country, focusing solely on the war against Yu Yuan, and meticulously rehearsing our military tactics."

"Alas, the world's affairs changed. Tang Yu rose to prominence, slaying the Heavenly King of the Divine Pool and subduing the water tribes of the Divine Pool. He built a city called "Ji Du."

The number "Heavenly Emperor's Town" gathered forces from all over Jingdi and established an unprecedented military court empire, also blocking our eastward path.

"In the south lies Qiangyong, with iron chains across the pass. If the Kingdom of Jing sends just one army to aid them, we will be unable to advance southward."

“The snowy regions are our homeland, but also our prison. In the end, we can only watch helplessly as the world outside changes, watching the grand scheme of things unfold, and in this era of heroes establishing their dominance, we become mere spectators.”

Fu Huan's voice was tinged with regret, and for millennia, it echoed softly in the wind.

Shen Ming shi was also hearing this history for the first time, and he sighed: "History books are so brief, and there are so many stories!"

Fu Huan looked at the thunderclouds for a while, and then asked, "What has the Winter Emperor been up to recently"

>

Looking back on the history of the Snow Country, every generation's strongest young prodigy came from under Fu Huan's tutelage, except for Xu Qiuc辭. She later created the highest achievement of the Snow Country's celestial pride, becoming the renowned Frost Immortal Monarch.

And Xie Ai is the daughter of this generation's Winter, and also a prodigy personally taught by Fu Huan. She performed well on the Guanhe Terrace. But overnight, she suddenly became Xu Qi Ci's reincarnation, and now she is the Winter Emperor.

Shen Ming shi shook his head. "I only know that she is hunting down Naran Rongzhi and searching for the location of the Heavenly Treasury... The whereabouts of Emperor Dong Huang, are not something I can pry into."

“Heavenly Thief’s Manor… Nalan Longzhi…” Fu Huan murmured, “When I was young, I met a man named Pu Shun’an. He said he was the master of Heavenly Thief’s Manor. But to this day, I don’t know what this sect does.”

"Where did you meet the master of the Heavenly Stealing Mansion"Shen Ming said, "Perhaps we can deduce the location of the Heavenly Stealing Mansion from his whereabouts."

"I didn't meet him in reality." Fu Huan obviously didn't want to talk more: "That was a long time ago." Shen Ming asked, "So, what was stolen from the Winter Emperor They have always been indifferent to worldly affairs. This time they took the initiative to come to us. Could it be—"

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

"Who knows Perhaps the Winter Emperor will be willing to speak when the time is right." Fu Huan said softly, "Don't worry about the Sky Thieves' Guild, they have never interfered with the mortal world."

Shen Ming shi nodded. "Then, what should we do next"

>

"Carry on as usual," Fu Huan said. "It's time to put an end to all of this."

The diligent Jiang閣員, in the Tai Xu Jiao Lou of Xue Ji City, diligently cultivated for many days. In this way, he diligently waited until the second Tai Xu Conference opened.

Though he was in the snow country, he did not descend in his true form. Instead, he entered the Taixu Pavilion through the way of entering the illusory realm of Taixu.

Still on the massive platform surrounded by starlight, Elder Jiang materialized his form, silently sitting down on his chair—he subconsciously glanced at Li Yi's seat, which was still empty. The other elders had all arrived.

Today we part ways, each of us somewhat hazy, unlike our first meeting where everyone was fully present.

"How is Jiang Ge's work in the Snow Country progressing" Dou Zhao slanted his eyes at Jiang Wang, his expression very displeased.

It seems I completely forgot. The reason why Jiang Wang was chosen for this task was precisely because of his strong recommendation.

Jiang Wang said calmly, "It's progressing steadily."

Dou Zhao grinned, "It's been a month already. Even if Qin Zhizhen was sent, things should be settled by now!"

His main dissatisfaction with Jiang Wang stemmed from the issue of intelligence.

After going to the snow country, Mr. Jiang was initially very proactive and quickly obtained information about Weiyu. But after receiving the high intelligence fee, he immediately disappeared like a mud ox into the sea. No matter how much he was urged, he didn't provide any new progress, not even a reply.

He thought that the situation in the snowy country was too complex, and Mr. Jiang was probably using his impoverished brain to outsmart others, working very hard. He also expressed his sympathy many times.

But later, by using Chu's intelligence system to investigate, I learned that this guy did nothing. He just cultivated with Wei Yu in Xueji City!

Qin Zhizhen heard this and frowned: "The words of the Douge members, I think it sounds quite unpleasant."

“If it doesn’t sound good, just stuff your ears with cotton!” Dou Zhao said impatiently. “What else do you want me to do Comfort you”

"The Tai Xu Pavilion is not your fighting ring." Ju Kui's voice was stern: "Amongst the pavilion members, don't constantly provoke each other. If you continue like this, I will have to file a complaint!"

Qin Zhizhen hadn't even had time to retort when he was stopped, his words swallowed back down.

Dou Zhao seemed not to feel that the criticism was directed at him, and continued to attack Jiang Gaoyuan: "I knew you weren't serious. After the last meeting, you immediately went drinking with Huang Sheli! Do you even consider the mission!"

Huang Sheli was not pleased and snapped back, "Dou, I advise you to mind your own business! What's going on in our private lives has nothing to do with you."

Jiang Wang seemed to feel Zhong Xuan's gaze again and hurriedly said, "We don't have much of a private life, just drink some wine together."

Huang Sheli spread his hands: "I didn't say anything else, either."

That's all!

Huang Sheli smiled: "Okay, as you wish."

Later, whenever the show reached day nine, he would get a headache. However, at this time, he hadn't realized the severity of the problem.

Just to reiterate: “The Second Vatican Council has officially begun. Please refrain from discussing irrelevant matters.”

"Then let's continue talking about the mission," Dou Zhao pressed. "Shouldn't Minister Jiang be giving a report"

Jiang Wang said in a low voice, "To ensure the mission goes smoothly, I will do my best to avoid any behavior that could lead to leaks. Of course, I will report to all of you after the mission is over, but for now — nothing to say."

Please note that I have only translated the text within the > tags. The HTML tags themselves remain unchanged.

“Fine,” Dou Zhaqi laughed, a mocking edge to his voice. “Now you’re telling me there’s nothing to say”

"Although the Douge members are targeting me, I have no intention of targeting them back," Jiang said calmly. "Some secret layouts are not good to disclose beforehand. I believe that with the Douge members' intelligence, it will not be difficult to understand. Moreover, even this sentence of mine has actually leaked information. The Douge members best pray that my plan will not be affected in the future, otherwise, I will find it hard not to suspect your motives for asking."

Compared to the composed Jiang Ge member, Dou Ge member was clearly much more impulsive. He momentarily glared fiercely: "What do you suspect Just make it clear."

Jiang Wang shrugged: "It's useless to say more, let time prove it."

After all, he didn't want to completely offend Dou Zhao, a major intelligence buyer, so he shifted his gaze: "Oh, where's Li Yi He's running late."

Dou Zhao was indeed furious: "This is a contempt for Taixu Pavilion and all of you present. Remove his chair!" once you add the identity of "mother," become reasonable.It's not just humans like that.At this time, Qing Jiu Ye walked over with a wooden expression."What's wrong" Qingbaji asked.Actually, he wante...
