Chapter 215: sword heaven

-Whoosh!

Within seconds, Alex and Nana reached their destination

['I need to get her to stop picking and taking me to places against my will. She almost pulled my shoulder out this time.'] Alex thought.

['Deal with it rabbit.'] Al mentioned.

Alex calmed himself down and took a look at where they were. He took a look and he was left speechless, the scenery he was gazing at wasn't something that he had seen before.

It was a mountain shaped like a gigantic sword, however, it wasn't a mountain that was made of rock. Its materials were unknown to Alex.

The gigantic sword-like mountain extended into the sky. Alex arched his head so that he could see how far in the sky the sword-like mountain extended to. The top of the place was just like the helm of a sword.

The sides of the sword-like mountain were silver in color and the middle was blue.

"This is the place that you were talking about? This is your clan's branch?" He asked with a stunned expression.

['Goddamn, if this is the branch, what is the main place going to look like? How much did it cost to get a place like this?'] Al exclaimed.

['Probably a lot.'] Lex chipped in.

['Why is it shaped like a sword though?'] That was the only thing Xander was interested in.

['Who cares about that? What matters is it's grandiose! I want something like this as the base of my legion.'] Al started to imagine what his legion was going to look like and grand it will be.

['You know, just like people, dreams die too. Don't get too absorbed in this dream of yours.'] Xander tried to pull Al back into reality.

['The day my dream dies is the day we die.'] Al declared with all seriousness.

Alex frowned at Al's declaration. ['Oii, oii, are you kidding me? Don't make stupid declarations like that, are you mental!?'] He began to reprimand Al.

['Hmph!!'] That was the only response that Al gave. Xander had kept quiet. He had already said all that he wanted to say for now.

"Yeah, this is one of the branches that my clan oversees." She noticed the frown on Alex's face. "I know, the sight of this is also repulsive to me." She added.

"You don't say" He whispered underneath his breath.

"Are we just going to stand here or are we going to go in there?" Alex questioned. He was quite eager to see the interior of the sword-like mountain.

"Give me a few seconds, I'll make those old men here come to greet us," Nana replied.

Nana decided to release a bit of her aura, the rule that the first emperor of the celestial realm made, still applied to the ordain plain realm.

Because of the rule, she can't use her full abilities here nor is she allowed to release the full pressure that comes from her aura.

-Thoom!

The sword-like mountain began shaking as soon as Nana released a fraction of her aura. The birds in the sky that were around the vicinity of the mountain all fell to the ground.

Nana protected Alex from the pressure that came with her aura, despite that, Alex could still tell how terrifying her aura was. He could feel his bones rattle in fear of her aura.

Alex gulped and took a quick look at Nana. Even when he faced Lilith the succubus, her aura wasn't this terrifying. At this moment, he developed more respect for Nana. She was indeed strong, but he still couldn't tell how strong she is.

['This is real power, if I have this much strength, I should be able to head back to Mars on my own, right?'] Alex thought.

['I don't know, but I think that this should be the bare minimum that we have to reach before we head back there.'] Xander replied.

The silvery part of the mountain started to vibrate, it created high-frequency sounds.

-Whoosh!!

-Whoosh!!

2 Dozen people arrived in front of Alex and Nana.

"Greetings, Mistress Ice. Welcome to the Sword Heaven." These 2 dozen people all fell to their knees at the same time, after they had finished greeting Nana.

As soon as they arrived, Nana retracted her aura, and the commotion that her aura had been causing, ceased to happen.

These people's movements were too fast for Alex to sense, to the extent that even when they arrived in front of him, he wasn't able to see or notice anything. He only knew of their presence after they spoke, and it was after they spoke that he was also able to see them.

Alex's eyes opened wide as he stared at them. His heart started to beat fast like it wanted to jump out of his heart.

Just from looking at these people that were kneeling in front of him and Nana, he could tell that he wasn't enough to be an ant in front of their strength.

His breathing started to change, he found it hard to control his breathing. Alex placed a hand on his neck, he felt like the air he was breathing in, was heavy.

Nana noticed this and she frowned. 'They are too weak for me to notice, but I forgot that Alex isn't strong enough to be able to manage the pressure

"Retract every bit of your aura if you don't want to die," Nana stated with a stern tone. "You are making my disciple uncomfortable." She added.

"Disciple?" They whispered unanimously. The 2 dozen people that were kneeling raised their heads and looked at Nana with a stunned expression, some of them had a mixture of confusion on.

"This weakling, he is your disciple?" A lady dressed as a man spoke. This lady shaved the left side of her hair and a tattoo was drawn on the shaved side. Her blue hair was cut short, left to rest on her ear.

She had a brown shirt on and another brown jacket over her shirt, but the shade of her jacket was darker than her shirt. Her trouser too was brown, same shade as the jacket that she had on; with combat boot that was also brown, the same shade as her shirt.

Alex couldn't even make an expression or refute what she said. After meeting them, he knew how weak he was compared to them.

This is was the first time in 9 years, that he had felt fear. The feeling of amounting to nothing overwhelmed him.

"Do you have anyone better than my disciple?" Nana glared at the woman that spoke.

"I do don't." After seeing the cold expression that Nana was making, she couldn't say what was on her mind.

"Good. Take us in." Nana commanded.

"As you wish, Mistress Ice." They chorused.

"This way." The lady that mocked Alex stood up as she said. She proceeded to lead the way.

"Where is that short man called Jacob?" Nana asked she followed beside the woman.

Alex walked behind Nana on instinct, he didn't want to walk side by side with her. Every arrogance that he had in him seemed to have vanished. While he followed behind his master, Alex made sure that he made no sounds.

He became a ghost.

"The sect master is in closed doors. He is trying to break through to the next realm." The woman leading them replied.

"And who are you?" Nana questioned.

"Forgive me for not introducing myself, I am the personal assistant of the sect master, my name is Thunder."

"That short leader of yours has a very weird taste in women." Nana took a jab at Thunder's ego.

Albeit the insult that she received from Nana, Thunder dared not to look displeased or hurt. She only smiled at Nana.

They knew what Nana was capable of, she was a very famous and notorious cultivator whose name has spread all over the ordain and celestial plain realms.

Moreover, they know that their sect is under the tutelage of her clan.

Nana held no regard for anyone, and since Thunder insulted Alex earlier, she had entered Nana's bad book.

"I don't care if the sect master is in seclusion, call him out here before I search for him myself," Nana said coldly.

"But-"

"But what? Do I look like I have time to spend with you?" Nana frowned and suddenly, snowflakes materialized.

They weren't falling to the ground though, they all levitated.

A small insect that was flying around aimlessly, collided with one of the levitating snowflakes.

-Booshh!!!

Upon contact, the snowflake exploded and it instantly froze the insect. The aftermath of that little explosion from one snowflake, caused everything in the direction at which it exploded, to turn into ice.

The trees and animals, as far as the eyes could see, had all been turned into ice sculptures.

"My word." Alex exclaimed. Although he knew that Nana froze things, this was different from what he had seen her use.

Whenever she froze the monsters in the forest behind the snow covered mountain, in the lower plain realm, they were still alive.

But now, everything in sight had been frozen to death.

It looked like a valley of ice.

-Whoosh!!!

"Forgive me Mistress Ice, I noticed your aura and came here as soon as I could." A child appeared in front of them, or so Alex thought
