The Butterfly Lady had helped Ling Xiao get through countless difficult times, but he never knew where she came from.
As for Cold Plum, she was a slave he had saved, and he didn't know where she came from.
However, he had noticed that Leng Mei and the Butterfly Lady were quite similar to each other to a certain extent.
Back then, Ling Xiao didn't think much of it, and thought it was just a coincidence.
But this time, by chance, Cold Plum and the Butterfly Lady met in the Mountain River World.
Then, they formed a special connection.
It was more like two parts of a person finally came into contact and fused.
However, Ling Xiao hadn't noticed the process yet.
Ling Xiao was now focused on cultivating the Nine Sovereigns Sword Incantation.
Now that he had made a breakthrough, it would be easier to cultivate the Nine Sovereigns Sword Incantation.
Ling Xiao eventually chose to cultivate Revered Ice's Cold Sky Sword Incantation and Revered Soul's Spirit Heaven Sword Incantation.
Revered Ice's Cold Sky Sword Incantation and Revered Fire's Blazing Sky Sword Incantation were the exact opposite of each other.
As for Revered Soul's Spirit Heaven Sword Incantation, it dealt more damage to the soul than physical damage.
It was definitely a powerful weapon. If used well, it could turn the tide of a battle.
He took out the Soul Pearl and the ninth level Lifeseizing Ice Crystal Snake demon core.
They floated in front of him.
Behind him, the map of the Western Domain's Divine Tombs appeared.
A sparkling ice sword and a spiritual sword that was almost completely invisible appeared at the same time.
Then, Ling Xiao used the Nine Sovereigns Sword Incantation.
The Soul Pearl and Ice Crystal Snake demon core's energy flowed into the two invisible swords.
The two swords were naturally formed from energy, and weren't real swords.
Only by fusing the Soul Orb and the Ice Crystal Snake's Demon Core would they be able to produce powerful explosive and destructive power.
The process of cultivation was extremely dry and tedious, and it was inevitable that one would have to endure unimaginable pain.
For a moment, Ling Xiao felt like his soul realm was about to explode. It was a fate worse than death.
For a moment, Ling Xiao felt like he had fallen into an endless ice cellar, and his entire body was filled with coldness.
It was a fate worse than death.
Cultivation was not something that could be accomplished overnight. Pain was often accompanied by pain.
Some people managed to pull through and succeed.
On the other hand, cowards would be scared off by the pain and their cultivation would stagnate.
Ling Xiao was also in great pain, but his willpower was incomparably firm.
After experiencing countless painful torments, he had long since adapted to this kind of pain.
Persevere!
He gritted his teeth and persevered!
One day!
Two days!
More than ten days later, the Soul Orb and Demonic Beast Cores in front of him had completely disappeared.
The two swords behind him were filled with terrifying power.
"Success!"
Ling Xiao opened his eyes and revealed a knowing smile.
After the pain, being able to succeed was naturally an extreme joy for him.
Many people either gave up or were tortured to death in this kind of pain.
Those who could make it through were all heroes and heroes.
"Supreme Flame Sword paired with Supreme Flame Blazing Sky Sword Art!
Supreme Ice Sword paired with Supreme Ice Sword Art!
Bloodthirsty Demon Sword, also known as a Soul Paragon Sword paired with Supreme Heaven Sword Art! "
Ling Xiao had studied the Bloodthirsty Demon Sword for a bit, and now understood what it was.
It was a Soul Paragon Sword, and could be fused with countless souls. It was a high-quality imperial item.
As for the Dugu Hegemon Sword, it was simply a modified version of a Soul Paragon Sword.
It wasn't a complete modification; all it did was make the Soul Paragon Sword even more bloodthirsty, and its killing intent even stronger.
Any one of the moves would be as powerful as an elementary King-Class martial skill.
When two swords were used, their power would be ten times greater!
When three swords were used, their power would be fifteen times greater!
Furthermore, each attack had its own unique attribute, and could be used to counter an enemy's attribute.
The Nine Paragon Sword Art was a consummate sword technique that was tailor-made for Ling Xiao, and he couldn't be happier.
With three sword incantations, and a sixth division Lifeseizing cultivation base, Ling Xiao was confident he could kill someone like Shui Wanying in a single blow.
Unfortunately, using three swords at once drained Ling Xiao of nearly ninety-nine percent of his true energy.
He wouldn't use them unless he absolutely had to.
Now that he could use a single sword incantation twice in a row, it was an improvement.
After spending another three days, Ling Xiao consolidated the results of his cultivation. Only then did he walk out of his Spirit Formation Martial Spirit.
If he wanted to make further breakthroughs in his cultivation base, and improve his martial skills, he would have to do battle.
He couldn't just sit here and wait.
Thirteen days had passed, and he had no idea what had happened in the outside world.
Dispelling his martial soul, he stepped out of the spell formation he had set up. As he did, the air was filled with the stench of blood.
"How many people died here? Why is there such a strong stench of blood?"
Ling Xiao sniffed the air, then flew in the direction of the smell.
The more intense the fighting, the more likely it was that there would be good stuff.
Take General Frost's Tomb for example. Whenever it appeared, it would lead to crazy fighting.
This time, it was no exception.
He flew about five kilometers in the direction of the stench of blood.
By now, he was very far away from the city of ice.
It was a desolate place, and yet, there were a large number of martial artists gathered here.
There were many corpses on the ground, clearly those who had lost in the competition.
Ling Xiao was a bit afraid of the Koi King and the Mirror Devil King, and even more so of Dragon Mother.
However, if he wanted to give up on the treasure, he would have to be killed.
He had come to the Primeval God Necropolis to get a head start.
If he saw the treasure and didn't dare to fight for it, he might not get another chance.
In the Primeval God Necropolis, the bold would die of hunger, and the cowards would starve to death!
A huge cave of ice had appeared where the group of martial artists had gathered.
A terrifying aura emanated from the cave, even more terrifying than the one in General Frost's Tomb.
Ling Xiao couldn't help but think of the eight imperial mausoleums.
In the Primeval God Necropolis, other than the imperial mausoleum of the Ancient Sword Emperor, only the eight imperial mausoleums were superior to the general's tomb.
'I really did come at the right time!'
Ling Xiao thought, a smile tugging at the corners of his mouth.
Then he walked over to the group of martial artists.
Most of them were in the sixth or seventh division of Lifeseizing.
In the past, Ling Xiao would have been very worried about such a level of strength. But now...
They weren't much of a threat to him.
At the entrance to the cave of ice stood a stone statue.
It held a longsword in its hand, and stood there motionless. However, it emanated the aura of an eighth division Lifeseizer.
'No wonder these people don't dare to enter the cave of ice,' Yang Qi thought. 'It seems they need to be at least in the eighth division of Lifeseizing to get in.'
With that, Ling Xiao walked into the crowd.
"What a bunch of trash!" he thought. "The last chance to get into the Ice Emperor's tomb is mine!"
Even as Ling Xiao walked toward the cave of ice, an enraged roar echoed out from off in the distance.
