"Oh really?" Alex asked. Then he said with great contempt in his tone "Do your worst, boys"

Immediately Alex said that, the cultivators in the air became more wrathful.

Who is this boy and where is he from?

So disrespectful!

"I see that you are the one with a sharp mouth." One of the cultivators said.

"Then what are you going to do about it?" Alex questioned with full disdain in his tone.

"Hahaha. I am going to rip it off from your face" The cultivator laughed raucously and then spoke with annoyance in his tone.

Then he suddenly aimed his hand at Alex who he grabbed with an invisible force.

Once the force was released and it enveloped Alex's body, he slowly clenched his hand into a fist which caused the force that had enveloped Alex's body to contract in size, causing Alex intense pain as numerous cracks suddenly appeared all over his body.

"Now, where did you hide the palace? Or I would reduce you into mist of blood." The cultivator said.

"I don't know. You can try finding out yourself" ex replied.

"Oh. Then you would like to be tortured more I guess" The cultivator said and continued to slowly curl his fingers to make a fist. And as he did so, Alex began to groan within himself. However the pain became too much and he screamed out in pain.

A few seconds later, the cultivator stopped and asked "Now, are you ready to tell us the location where you hid the treasure?"

"Yes. I would tell you" Alex said as the agonizing pain he felt rapidly lessened.

"Then tell us" One cultivator amongst them said impatiently.

"No. Not like that. I can only tell you on one condition" Alex replied.

What kind of bastard is this? Who is the parent that gave birth to this rogue?

The cultivator using a crushing force on Alex murmured frustratedly within himself. So were the others too as expressions of frustration appeared on their faces.

The cultivator that released the invisible restraining force couldn't use all his power on Alex, or it would be their total loss; since if they killed him, there was no way they would be able to discover where he actually hid the treasure-palace.

But he was torturing him to tell him the location. However, he wasn't yielding.

"I will take it from here" The law enforcement agent said to the cultivator who nodded and ceased the flow of the unseen constricting force emanating from his body and engulfed Alex's entire figure.

"Where is the treasure-palace, kid? See, I am not torturing you. But you don't wanna make me angry as I have many ways to force you to speak the truth. So, just humble yourself and tell me, or you would absolutely regret it." The law enforcement agent said.

"Well, it's mine. I can't share it location with you guys. I am sorry for that" Alex said with boldness on his tone.

"Then when you are dead, is it still yours?" The cultivator asked.

"Yes" Alex replied.

The law enforcement agent then looked at Alex with frigidity in his eyes.

With one of his hands out which was aimed at Alex, a force-wave that could crush mountains suddenly discharged from it. But before the tyrannical wave of immense crushing power could strike Alex, it was suddenly blocked by a towering, wide and thick layer of ice that suddenly appeared before Alex.

Bang!

The enormous ice barrier shattered apart with a loud bang. But it successfully stopped the force-wave in it track.

However, this barrier suddenly regenerated in the next instant and grew so tall that it seemed to want to connect to the sky. Also, it became so thick that it was many feet long; twelve feet thick precisely. And as soon as this barrier appeared, a type of coldness that caused the temperature of the surroundings for a thousand feet to suddenly rapidly descend to the point that it could seemingly, totally freeze gods; turn them into cold, solid statues carved out from thick ice blocks, abruptly erupted from his eyes which had turned white.

When the first barrier of ice appeared and exploded with a loud, ear-aching bang on impact with the destructive wave unleashed by the law enforcement agent, the eyes of the cultivators before Alex in the air shone with great awe. They were totally amazed by the tall ice barrier that had suddenly manifested from nowhere, so they felt, as they quickly deployed their scanning power to scan the entire valley for an hidden expert that caused the abrupt appearance of the shielding ice barrier that surfaced before Alex. But they saw no one. And before they could do anything else, the barrier instantly regenerated and grew so tall and thick to block further wave-attacks which was then instantly accompanied by an exceedingly low coldness that turned them into ice.

Although Alex was incredibly fast with it; quickly blocking their attacks and unleashing his, they were still however experts who wouldn't go down without a battle.

So, when the immensely tall barrier of ice appeared, as experts who had quickly sent out their scanning senses for an hidden, powerful expert who was around in the valley but detected nothing, they quickly produced armors from their spatial rings which appeared on them and then abruptly activated the energy-producing defensive arrays in their full body armors.

Therefore, although the coldness that appeared and caused the temperature of the surroundings for a thousand feet to greatly plummet to a degree where the frozen experts would turn completely into ice and be easily shattered into ice fragments if impacted with a powerful kinetic force, they didn't fully transform into ice. The armors that they wore produced protective, enveloping auras of different realm-energies around them which defended them from the great coldness that had suddenly appeared, causing the ground to be completely frozen in ice.

The cultivators who were conscious within the thick ice that had enveloped them suddenly unleashed the energies that they cultivated from their hands.

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!...

Hundreds of loud bang sounds rang out as the ice that solidly, fully enwrapped their bodies shattered apart explosively because of the violent releases of the energies that they cultivated.

In the next second, the ice on them could be seen on the ground in the tiniest fragments.

Then they looked at Alex who was surprised that they hadn't yet died. However, in the next instant, the surprise in his eyes vanished as he comprehended why they hadn't been eliminated yet, and this was because he saw them on armors.

"Kid, how did you do that?" The law enforcement agent who was at the front asked with amazement in his tone.

"Do what? I did nothing" Alex replied with false innocence in his tone.

"So, the ice that shielded you from my killing attack surfaced by itself?" The law enforcement agent asked again with anger and evilness glowing in his eyes.

"I don't know. I know nothing about that" Alex replied, boldly looking at the law enforcement agent in the eyes.

Earlier, he had only deployed a tiny amount of the Ice and Frost creation power of the God-eyes of Ice World Creation and Glacial Desolation which was available to him upon the removal of a few of the numerous seals that inhibited the eyes from showing it full power. He had done so as he didn't want to completely freeze himself along with the enemy cultivators before him. But seeing that from his little test which was unsuccessful in turning his enemies into ice, he prepared to unleash the ice generation power that was available for deployment.

The law enforcement agent who was excessively annoyed at Alex and couldn't stand him anymore because he was frustrating him, a proud cultivation expert, suddenly unleashed a powerful telekinetic force to grab Alex and rapidly teleport away with him to a secret place in his government-awarded residence.
