Immortal World: Elena arrives at the Ice Phoenix Sect

The daughter of the Grand Mistress of the Ice Phoenix sect, Aveline Mei, eagerly awaits the arrival of the imperial princess with a heart full of hope. As she prepares for the arrival of her illustrious guest, she feels a responsibility to revitalize the sect and make sure it is a success.

Aveline, dressed in her traditional Ice Phoenix sect costume, paces back and forth in her room as she thinks about the imperial princess's visit. Despite her seriousness and lack of expression, concern for the future of the sect is reflected in her gaze.

"What can we offer the princess to stay and help us?" she wonders. "Is our sect so weak that we need her help to survive?"

As he continues walking, he remembers the proposal of the son of the thunder colossus sect and his threat towards the Ice Phoenix sect. "By accepting his proposal, we would become his subordinates and our sect would be reduced to being just an appendage of his. How can we allow that to happen?"

He pauses in front of his window, looking out at the snow-capped mountain surrounding the sect. "Our sect has a history of hundreds of years, we cannot allow it to degrade because of this situation. If necessary, I am willing to sacrifice everything to maintain the independence and integrity of the sect."

She recalls the situation in the competition between the Ice Phoenix sect and the Thunder Colossus sect.

On that painful day, her sect was directly crushed and humiliated in that competition, even she herself was a victim of the power of the son of that sect. Moreover, he was so brazen to propose marriage and argue that the Ice Phoenix sect would soon be destroyed if they did not do something and that the empire could not protect them better than them.

"We can't give in to their threats and blackmail," thinks the daughter. "Being subordinates of the Thunder Colossus sect is not an option. The independence and integrity of the Ice Phoenix sect are the most important thing."

As she prepares for the arrival of the imperial princess, Aveline knows she must be careful about the decisions she makes. "We cannot simply accept any offer of help that comes our way. We must be wise and make sure that any help received does not compromise our position and values."

Despite her serious expression and lack of emotion, the sect master's daughter is willing to do whatever it takes to protect the Ice Phoenix sect and make sure its future is secure.

Meanwhile ...

Elena's journey from the county to the Felix Sect of Ice is long and grueling.

It begins on a dirt road through grassy hills and leafy groves with lots of snow, and continues north into the snow-capped mountains. As it nears its destination, the mountains grow taller and more majestic, and the trees become sparser.

Elena leaned back in her carriage seat, watching her daughter sleep peacefully beside her. The child was tired after a long day of travel, but Elena knew the little girl was strong enough to endure the journey to the Ice Phoenix Sect.

Elena looked around and noticed that the wandering cultivator she had hired was sitting quietly in the front seat, facing forward. She was a beautiful woman, with a wild and free appearance that attracted the attention of every man who looked at her. Elena, was impressed with her appearance and also wondered if she was available, so as to add one more woman, and fulfill the system's mission.

You should know that Elena was confident that she could convince some of the Ice Phoenix Sect's female cultivators, but she doesn't think many would agree to her proposal. And what is the reason why she is taking the trouble to convince this sect instead of looking for wandering female cultivators?

Simple, Elena has a grudge against her mother, who is in the Phoenix of Fire sect. And what is the best revenge? Strengthening a sect that is directly your rival.

Besides, you can't always beat the gacha of life and, although Illios has the star inheritance, you don't know if they would be able to give enough potential to their descendants for the mission.

Besides, he thinks it's a waste not to use the Illios children as a bridge to make alliances with different powers in this immortal world, in which, by the way, you don't know what mission will come out after you reach the milestone of 20 people with "Sovereign of Existence" potential.

That's why he will make overtures like this one, which he is about to make to the Ice Phoenix sect, to different factions to gain potential allies, but he won't look down on errant cultivators who catch his eye.

So Elena decided to take the opportunity to talk to the woman and assess whether she would be a good match for her brother. "Excuse me, may I speak with you for a moment?" asked Elena in a low voice.

The woman turned to Elena curiously, and the sunlight filtering through the window illuminated her beautiful face. She had large, bright, deep green eyes and dark, curly hair that cascaded over her shoulders. Her features were strong, yet delicate, and her skin was silky smooth.

She was wearing simple leather attire, but it was evident that she was in excellent physical shape. Her posture was erect and confident, as if nothing could bring her down. Elena could see why the woman attracted so much attention, and perhaps her brother might be attracted to her.

"My name is Kira," the woman said, interrupting Elena's thoughts. "How can I help you, my lady?"

Elena cleared her throat before continuing to speak. "I've noticed that you don't have any Dao companions with you," she said, watching Kira with a sly look. "Is it that he has no interest in them?"

Kira shrugged indifferently. "I haven't met anyone worthwhile, I guess," she said, with an enigmatic smile.

Elena took the opportunity to introduce her twin brother, Illios, who was a prince of the empire and was currently administering a county. "My brother is looking for a suitable wife," Elena said. "And I think you might be a good choice for him."

Kira seemed surprised by the proposal, but did not reject the idea immediately. Elena went on to argue that, if she agreed to become Illios' concubine, she would have access to many resources and wealth, and that she could have a life full of luxuries.

"Of course, I'm not asking you to give me an answer right now," Elena said, smiling slyly. "Take your time and think about it. But I would love for you to consider my proposal. I'm sure my brother would be delighted to meet you and discuss the details with you."

Kira seemed to seriously consider Elena's offer, but did not give a definite answer. "I'll mull it over," she said simply, looking forward again.

Elena leaned back in her seat, satisfied with their conversation. She knew she had made a good impression on Kira, and she was eager to see if the woman would accept her proposal in the future.

Finally, after several hours of travel, Elena reaches a steep trail that winds up the mountainside. The path is rocky and dangerous, and is covered with snow and ice in many places. Nevertheless, Elena is determined to reach the Ice Phoenix Sect, and she continues up without hesitation.

And after a fucking steep climb, Elena arrives at the entrance to the Ice Phoenix Sect.

The Ice Phoenix Sect is located on top of a mountain, surrounded by snow and ice. The buildings are constructed of blocks of ice and snow, with roofs that slope skyward like a bird's wings. The main structure is a large temple, with tall ice columns supporting a glass roof that allows sunlight to enter the interior.

The temple is surrounded by a series of smaller buildings, all built in the same architectural style. Each building has a frost pattern carved into its walls, and the roofs are covered with fresh snow. The buildings are connected by a series of ice bridges, which span frozen streams and crevices in the mountain.

In the center of the complex is a large courtyard, where members of the sect gather for ceremonies and rituals. In the center of the courtyard is an ice fountain, carved in the shape of a phoenix rising into the sky. The water flowing from the fountain freezes into ice crystals that sparkle like diamonds in the sunlight.

Along the walls of the complex, there are ice sculptures depicting figures of Phoenixes, dragons and other mythological animals. As the sun moves across the sky, the light reflects off the ice sculptures, creating a spectacle of bright, shimmering colors.

Overall, the Ice Phoenix Sect has an impressive and majestic appearance, but also cold and austere, in line with its spiritual focus and its relationship with the ice element.

"Well," Elena said as she straightened a silver dress made in the county and pulled a small princess crown from the system store, "the first thing is to give a stately but not too haughty appearance, and act respectfully. In this way, I can secure sympathy without being underestimated."

She looked at herself in the mirror and adjusted her dress. She was determined to make a good impression on the Ice Phoenix Sect and find female cultivators who wanted to join her cause.

"Besides, I must be persuasive and present an attractive proposal. If I can't convince them that our cause is just and worthy, then it will be difficult to win their support," Elena thought as she arranged the crown in her hair.

Elena's silver dress was elegant and simple at the same time. It was made of a soft satin fabric that fit her body perfectly, but was not too tight. It had a round neckline and a slit at the waist that exposed her delicate figure. The skirt cascaded down to the floor, with a soft, light drape that made it look like Elena was floating as she walked.

The crown she had chosen to match her dress was a masterpiece of jewelry. It was made of polished silver and was inlaid with tiny crystal stones that sparkled in the light. The shape of the crown was delicate and sophisticated, with small intertwined branches and leaves extending around the circumference. It was elegant enough to show Elena's status as a princess, but it was not too ostentatious to make her appear arrogant or pretentious.

"Everything is ready. Let's introduce ourselves first and then Elizabeth," Elena concluded as she stepped out of the carriage to face the Ice Phoenix sect.
