As soon as he stepped into the teleportation formation and activated it, he felt dizzy. He felt as if he was about to lose his mind.
This was not the first time that Lu Xuan had used a teleportation array, but the teleportation array he had used before was only a short distance. In the blink of an eye, he arrived at his destination. This teleportation array to the Profound Ice Secret Territory was undoubtedly a long distance teleportation array. After a few breaths of time, Lu Xuan was still in the space tunnel. He did not know how Profound Ice Pavilion obtained the method to enter the Profound Ice Secret Territory.
After a few breaths of time, Lu Xuan suddenly felt relaxed. The weightlessness and disorientation from the teleportation instantly disappeared, and a chill invaded his body. Lu Xuan, who had not adapted to the environment, could not help but shiver.
He had arrived at the Profound Ice Secret Territory!
Lu Xuan scanned his surroundings and saw nothing but pure white. Just looking at it made one feel cold. Furthermore, the place was not a flat plain. Jagged rocks of strange shapes were everywhere, and there were even trees that had been frozen into ice sculptures.
It was obvious that the environment here was not natural, but man-made. Perhaps countless years ago, this was just an ordinary area, but something happened that formed the Profound Ice Secret Territory.
Lu Xuan did not delve into the origins of the Profound Ice Secret Territory. Profound Ice Pavilion had not been able to find out for so many years. It was unrealistic for him to find out everything in a short period of time.
The temperature in the Profound Ice Secret Territory was about 20 to 30 degrees lower than the outside world. It might be a little troublesome for ordinary people, but it was not a problem for martial artists.
The Taiyi Convergence Technique activated on its own, slowly absorbing the Yuanli in the air. Lu Xuan sensed that the concentration of Yuanli in this place was indeed much higher than in the outside world. It was even higher than the concentration of Yuanli in the Xuan Ice Pavilion. The concentration of Yuanli in the Xuan Ice Pavilion was about twice that of the outside world, while the concentration of Yuanli in the Xuan Ice Secret Realm was about three times that of the outside world. Furthermore, the concentration of Yuanli in the Xuan Ice Secret Realm was obviously higher. It was an excellent place for martial artists who practiced Yuanli techniques.
Even if they did not do anything, cultivating here for three months would benefit them greatly. Of course, it was a waste to use such a precious secret territory quota to cultivate.
With a flash of sword light, the Human upper-grade Shattered Ice Sword was already in Lu Xuan's hand. In such an unpredictable and dangerous place, he could not hold back at all.
Holding the Shattered Ice Sword, Lu Xuan walked forward slowly. At the same time, he held the identity token of Wind Sword School in his left hand. He injected a trace of essence force to activate it. He kept sending out signals, but did not get any response. Obviously, there were no people from Wind Sword School nearby.
That was within Lu Xuan's expectations. There were only 12 disciples of the Wind Sword Sect, and they were scattered throughout the vast Xuanbing Secret Realm. The chances of them meeting each other were slim.
As he continued to walk forward, Lu Xuan did not have any intention to explore the secret territory. The most important thing now was to find Xia Chenxi and Chen Xiaohan. Anyway, he had three months. There was no hurry to explore the secret territory.
Along the way, the entire Profound Ice Secret Territory was silent. Only Lu Xuan's footsteps could be heard. Not to mention the disciples of Wind Sword School, Lu Xuan did not even meet a single person. It seemed like this Profound Ice Secret Territory was much bigger than he imagined.
At this moment, Lu Xuan's footsteps suddenly stopped. His expression changed slightly. He seemed to have sensed some movement and had a feeling that he was being watched.
Lu Xuan turned his head abruptly. A figure suddenly appeared in Lu Xuan's sight. Seeing that it was a martial artist, Lu Xuan heaved a sigh of relief. They had just entered the secret territory. Even if someone wanted to kill someone and steal their treasures, it would not happen now.
"May I know which sect this senior brother is from?" Lu Xuan cupped his fists and asked.
The figure did not answer at all. He just kept walking towards Lu Xuan.
Lu Xuan frowned and tightened his grip on the long sword in his hand. A hint of warning rose in his mind. Something was not right.
As the figure got closer, Lu Xuan could see his face clearly. He indeed looked like a martial artist. Lu Xuan searched his mind, but he did not have any impression of this person. Moreover, he felt that this person was a little strange.
Lu Xuan stared at the face of the newcomer, and a look of shock flashed across his face. He finally knew why he felt strange. Not only was he unable to see through this person's cultivation, but more importantly, there was not a trace of human aura on him. Instead, he carried a trace of the unique aura of the Xuanbing Secret Realm!
If he could not see through this person's cultivation, then it could be explained that this person had reached the Spirit Refinement Realm. But if he did not have a human aura, then it could not be explained. The only possibility was that this person was not human!
"Profound Ice Demon!" Lu Xuan shouted. Without any hesitation, he suddenly attacked with the Shattered Ice Sword. Startling Wind!
A cold gust of wind blew up in an instant, directly attacking this "martial artist"!
Seeing that Lu Xuan had launched an attack, the "martial artist" put his hands together. Ice-type Yuan Power instantly condensed. In the blink of an eye, countless tiny ice balls appeared and directly rushed towards Lu Xuan.
Lu Xuan's guess was right. This fellow in front of him who looked no different from a human was the Profound Ice Demon!
The Profound Ice Demon was a unique creature born in the Profound Ice Secret Territory. It possessed intelligence and did not have a fixed form. It could change its form at will. This was because every few years, some martial artists from the Profound Ice Pavilion would enter the Profound Ice Secret Territory to explore. Once they were seen by these Profound Ice Demons, they would transform into human form. If one was careless, they might really fall for their tricks.
Since this Profound Ice Demon could transform into human form, it proved that it had experienced the opening of the Profound Ice Secret Territory last time. It had seen real martial artists, and it might have even personally killed a martial artist. Its strength was not to be underestimated.
A portion of the tiny ice balls shot out by the Profound Ice Demon suddenly exploded in the air. The power of Lu Xuan's Startling Wind was immediately affected. The remaining ice balls continued to attack Lu Xuan.
Using the Blink Sword Technique, Lu Xuan used the Shattered Ice Sword. In an instant, countless sword strikes accurately struck the ice balls. The Profound Ice Demon's attack was instantly defeated.
"Jiejie!" The Profound Ice Demon let out a strange laugh and attacked again. A strong ice-type Yuan Power quickly pressed towards Lu Xuan. Moreover, it condensed into ice at a speed visible to the naked eye. It was as if it wanted to freeze Lu Xuan alive.
Wind Riding Technique!
Lu Xuan quickly circulated the Wind Riding Technique and easily retreated from the Profound Ice Demon's attack. At the same time, he quickly approached the Profound Ice Demon and stabbed out with his longsword. A sharp sword aura instantly shot into the Profound Ice Demon's body and pierced a small hole in its heart.
However, contrary to Lu Xuan's expectations, this wound that was fatal to most martial artists had no effect on the Profound Ice Demon.
Slightly stunned, Lu Xuan then realized that the guy in front of him was not a human, but a Profound Ice Demon. Although it had turned into a human, its heart might not be its weak point.
Taking advantage of Lu Xuan's daze, the Profound Ice Demon attacked again. It suddenly punched out with both its fists and a huge force came towards Lu Xuan. In terms of power, it was comparable to a martial artist at the first level of the Spirit Refinement Realm.
He did not expect the first Profound Ice Demon to be so strong. He did not know if Lu Xuan's luck was too bad or too good.
However, Lu Xuan did not put this attack in his eyes. Even if it was at the first level of the Spirit Refinement Realm, it was only an ordinary first level of the Spirit Refinement Realm. It was not a match for Lu Xuan.
With the help of the Wind Riding Technique, Lu Xuan dodged the attack again. With a turn of the Star Shattering Sword, the Thunderclap was instantly released. A thick thunderbolt directly shot towards the Profound Ice Demon. Since Lu Xuan did not know where its weak point was, he might as well use an area of effect attack.
At this moment, an ice shield quickly condensed in front of the Profound Ice Demon. After the thunderbolt that Lu Xuan released broke through the ice shield, it landed on the demon's body. However, the power of the thunderbolt had already decreased by a lot.
The Profound Ice Demon did not seem to have a fixed attack method. The attacks that they released could not be considered martial techniques. It was purely the use of ice elemental energy. Because they lived in the Profound Ice Mystic Realm all year round, their use of ice elemental energy was even more exquisite than some martial artists.
Even though the Xuan Bing Sword had been partially blocked by the Xuan Bing Sword, a Profound Level martial arts technique was not something that could be easily withstood. Lu Xuan took the opportunity to get close to the Xuan Bing Sword and thrust it straight at the center of its forehead!
The Frost Demon's movements suddenly paused, and its entire body abruptly dissipated. An extremely dense ice elemental force emanated from its body. Lu Xuan's mind stirred, and the Taiyi Convergence Technique quickly operated, rapidly absorbing the elemental force.
While the Yuanli dissipated very quickly, Lu Xuan still managed to absorb close to 30% of it. While it was only 30% of the Yuanli, it would have taken him at least a day to absorb that much if he were to train directly. That was when he was training in the Mystery Ice Secret Realm. If he were to train in the outside world, it would have taken him nearly three days.
Risk was always accompanied by benefits.
After absorbing the energy emitted by the Profound Ice Demon, Lu Xuan bent down and picked up an item that was left behind by the Profound Ice Demon. It was a crystal clear item shaped like a Yuan Stone. Even looking at it with the naked eye, one could feel the energy contained within it.
"Looks like this is the so-called 'Ice Soul'. It is said that only Profound Ice Demons with strength equivalent to the Soul Refinement Realm can condense it. This guy just now was equivalent to the Soul Refinement Realm." Lu Xuan looked at the Ice Soul and muttered to himself.
Holding the Ice Soul in his hand, Lu Xuan recalled the value of this Ice Soul. According to the standards given by the Profound Ice Pavilion, the Ice Soul's value was different depending on the size. This Ice Soul wasn't considered big, it was probably the lowest grade one. It was around 50 contribution points.
In order to reach the standard of joining the Profound Ice Pavilion, one needed 10,000 contribution points. In other words, one had to collect at least 200 of these Ice Souls. For an ordinary disciple, it was indeed very difficult. 200 Ice Souls meant that one had to kill 200 Profound Ice Demons with strength equivalent to the Soul Refinement Realm. For a disciple with strength equivalent to the Body Refinement Realm, it was truly not easy. Not to mention, they might not even be able to encounter so many Soul Refinement Realm Profound Ice Demons.
After storing the Ice Soul, Lu Xuan thought for a moment and walked in the direction that the Profound Ice Demon came from. He didn't know if there were any Profound Ice Demons in that direction.
