Chapter 504 – Snow Lotus
“The Ice Crystal Jade Spring actually appeared in the Coldjade mountain range, and it’s even located in such a southern part of Nanwan County?”
Not long after Qi Min crossed the Liang Jade Mountain Range from the Yuzhou and entered the Liang Zhou, he received the news that the Frozen Snow Region had appeared.
I heard that Junior Zhang has also rushed there. Hmm, I might as well join in the fun as well, my Snow Wind Sword is only a thousand years away from the thousand year old Ice Stone and I can reach the upper grade of the Spirit Stage. The chances of finding it in the Snow Region of Ice and Snow are even greater than the Northern Frozen Plains.
In the valley where the Ice Crystal Jade Spring was located, after Adept Jing Chen and Spiritual Master Liu Qiu had left, the Adept Jing Yuan stood up and left as well.
This person’s Qi was extremely secretive, as though he had trained in a secret technique to hide his body. Other than Yang Junshan, the other three Spiritual Masters, including the true inheritor of Snow Wind Sword Sect, Zhang Mo Feng, did not sense anything, and Yang Junshan had only managed to faintly catcrace of the Qi by relying on his refined spiritual consciousness. Furthermore, the Qi had given Yang Junshan a sense of familiarity.
However, after the Adept Jing Yuan left, one of the five springs had clearly been emptied out, while the Spiritual Master who was previously hiding his presence had not appeared at all. Yang Junshan thought to himself, could it be that the person was not guarding outside the valley to launch a sneak attack, or that there is an enemy within the valley who does not dare to reveal himself?
He had just arrived at Liang Zhou and no one knew him aside from Qi Min, who had offended the Snow Wind Sword Sect. Naturally, that person was not his enemy, and even if he wanted to ambush and kill him, right now, not a single trace of him could escape from his senses, so naturally, he wouldn’t be ambushed.
He had already completed the refinement of the True Divine Art in his body long ago, and there was not a single strand of spirit essence left in the source energy in his dantian. Instead, he had completely transformed into the True Divine Art, and it could be said that he had already completed the astral transformation process for the first stage of the realms of life, so much that it could be said that he had already stepped into the perfection-stage of the Astral Transformation Realm.
Of course, this Perfection Stage was only the perfection stage where all the other spirit sources in his body had been converted into True Divine Spirit Qi. There was still some distance between it and the true Gangli Accumulation Realm realm, but even so, this time, the Ice Crystal Jade Spring had still saved him more than a year of cultivation time.
More importantly, after the Ice Crystal Jade Spring s had refined the True Divine s within his body, they had become purer. The flaws brought by the that he had forcefully broken through the bottleneck had been wiped away, and the poison that had accumulated in his body had also increased, so in the future, it would no longer becomindrance for his cultivation.
In addition, the Ice Crystal Jade Spring had also greatly enhanced his physical body’s tempering. Although Yang Junshan’s entire person was submerged in the ice spring and other cultivators were present, making it impossible for Yang Junshan to complete the eight movements of the Mountain Monarch’s Map, he could still feel that after his physical body had been tempered by the cold source. Cultivating the sixth picture of the Monarch’s Map was already nothing difficult.
What was more important was that after he had started cultivating the Stomach Blessing during his martial arts realm, his achievements in the six viscera brocade remained stagnant. Even though the method of cultivation for the Stomach Blossom was a little incomplete, until he advanced to the realms of life, he had already completed the method of cultivation for the Stomach Blossom cultivation and even cultivated it to the maximum level. However, he had never managed to open the third inner organs’ diagram of the technique, which also showed how difficult it was to cultivate the six viscera brocade.
However, Yang Junshan never thought that when his body was about to be fully refined, it would give iry. He once again followed the cultivation method of the six viscera brocade and started to communicate with his internal organs, and did not expect his internal organs to react.
Cultivation of this organ was not an easy task. Thankfully, the training methods were complete. As long as he could open it, then everything would be fine.
From the looks of it, this trip to the Snow Region of Ice and Snow was not a wasted trip. As long as he continued to cultivate without interruption, at least the bottleneck to the advanced Gangli Accumulation Realm would have been greatly reduced. After all, it would greatly shorten the time it took for him to advance in Gangli Accumulation Realm.
At this time, the true disciple of the Snow Wind Sword Sect, Zhang Mo Feng, also finished his cultivation in the Ice Crystal Jade Spring. He only nodded slightly towards Yang Junshan, then jumped out of the frozen spring, and drove away with his light.
Not long after Zhang Mo Feng left, Yang Junshan’s consciousness moved. The aura that had appeared at the entrance of the valley in a flash but was gone, and this time, was no longer hiding himself. Instead, he soared into the air and landed inside the valley, then slowly entered the cold pond that Adept Jing Yuan had left in time and space.
Yang Junshan looked at the man in shock, he saw that the man was also looking at Yang Junshan and was the first to speak: “Fellow cultivator, looks like we are fated to meet!”
At that time, he had expressed good will, but Yang Junshan was extremely cautious, and did not talk much with him. He did not expect that this person would ultimately find the Snow Region of Ice and Snow after walking along a detour.
Yang Junshan smiled slightly and said: “That’s right, we have met again.
This time, it was Yang Junshan who first asked him for his name, causing him to be slightly stunned.
In fact, after the Snow Wind Sword Sect’s Zhang Mo Feng left, this person appeared. Yang Junshan knew that this person either offended the Snow Wind Sword Sect or had a grudge with Zhang Mo Feng, or else he would not have used a secret technique to hide outside the valley entrance, and waited for Zhang Mo Feng to leave before daring to enter.
That person did not expect that Yang Junshan, who was deeply wary of him before, would actually first ask him about it this time. After being startled for a moment, he looked at the other two Adept Realm Cultivator s beside him and laughed: “I am called Liu Chang Zai, a citizen of Liang Zhou’s Bingzhou Region, and I don’t know who my friend is …”
Yang Junshan laughed and said: “I am Yang Xishan, and have always been following teacher around Liang Zhou. I just advanced to realms of life two years ago, and am just a nobody.”
Ren Qing laughed, “Oh, so it’s Taoist Yang. My friend is joking, someone as young as my friend, the moment you advance to realms of life, I’m afraid you will immediately become famous.”
The two of them chatted for a while, then Ren Ziling asked tentatively, “I wonder if you have any plans after coming out of the Ice Spring, would you like to join forces with me to explore the Ice Snow Region?”
Yang Junshan smiled as he shook his head. He stood up from the ice spring and said: “Dao is friendly. However, Fellow Daoist, you entered the ice spring earlier than me.
When Yang Junshan rode the light escape, he saw a cultivator at the peak of the martial arts realm pacing back and forth at the entrance of the valley. After Yang Junshan left, the Martial Realm Cultivator saw that there were two Frozen Spring Wintry Ponds in the middle of the valley.
By now, the Snow Region of Ice had probably shrunk down to more than half of its original size. The other few Spiritual Masters were a step ahead of him, so he didn’t know if he would still be able to find any treasures in the Snow Region of Ice.
After exiting the valley, Yang Junshan spread out his spirit sense, and immediately noticed the violent spirit energy movement 10 li away in the south. It seemed like there were at least 3 to 4 Adept Realm Cultivator s fighting with their techniques.
Yang Junshan’s heart was moved, he naturally wanted to watch the show, but Yang Junshan’s aura was quickly detected by the two opposing sides, and a voice came from afar: “But Yang Xiashan, Taoist Yang, I hope that fellow cultivator can lend uand. After this matter is settled, we will split it equally!”
When Yang Junshan arrived, he saw that Adept Jing Chen and Adept Jing Yuan had teamed up and blocked the encirclement of three Spiritual Masters. Among the three Spiritual Masters, two of them were indeed Spiritual Master Liu Qiu and Spiritual Master Zhang Mo Feng.
He did not know the other one, but he did not know why he did not go to the Ice Crystal Jade Spring s. Instead, he had teamed up with the two Spiritual Masters to attack the two from the Adept Jing Chen.
Upon seeing Yang Junshan, Spiritual Master Liu Qiu then said, “Taoist Yang, Junior Brother Chen Mu and I have the thousand-year ice lotus, this thing can be used to cure wounds and cure poisons, and is of high quality. At the very least, it can be used to refine more than seven middle-ranked pellets!”
If there were seven mid-grade treasures, then this thousand-year ice lotus would be at least a seventh grade. If it could reach ninth grade, then it could be used to refine nine high-grade treasures.
The thousand-year-old ice lotus was indeed precious, but Yang Junshan currently had three treasures that were not inferior to it. Furthermore, he was currently in the Outer Region, and he did not wish to make too many enemies.
Just when he was hesitating, the two Adept Jing Chen s hesitated. Seeing Yang Junshan appear, the two junior brothers did not dare bet on Yang Junshan’s luck. They immediately activated a green talisman in front of their chests, and a breeze blew in from all directions.
“Not good! It’s the Wind Manipulation Talisman. Quickly stop them!”
Zhang Mo Feng was able to see through the charms the two of them were throwing out, and he hurriedly warned the others to stop them.
However, the two Adept Jing Chen s had already made sufficient preparations. With the activation of the Wind Disorder Talisman, the two of them immediately turned into cool winds and hid in the air currents in different directions before disappearing.
Without another word, Zhang Mo Feng rode on the light and left. It was unknown whether he was going to chase after the two Adept Jing Chen s or leave alone.
Spiritual Master Liu Qiu glanced at Yang Junshan, and thought, “Whaity,” and then turned and left in different directions, while the remaining Spiritual Master seemed to have known the location of the Valley’s Ice Spring, and upon seeing the two who had temporarily allied with each other leaving, he also headed towards the direction of the valley. In an instant, only Yang Junshan remained as one of the last of the five Spiritual Masters in the competition.
Yang Junshan laughed helplessly, and subconsciously scanned his surroundings with his Spiritual Sense, but suddenly he found a strange and weak Qi suddenly appearing in the ice and snow, and then quickly leaving, quickly disappearing from Yang Junshan’s Spiritual Sense!
What was this thing? How could it still survive in this snowy region?
Moreover, the aura just now was definitely not gone out of the range of his Spiritual Awareness. Instead, it had suddenly disappeared.
