Lu Xuan coughed twice and quickly changed the topic. "Instructor Yang, you've been taking care of me all this while. This is nothing."
Instructor Yang glanced at Xia Chenxi and Chen Xiaohan behind Lu Xuan. A smile of understanding appeared on his face, but he did not expose him.
At this moment, the light from the Teleportation Formation in the valley gradually dimmed. Clearly, after such a long time, all the disciples who had entered the Profound Ice Secret Dimension should have come out by now. As for those who had yet to come out, there was only one possibility: they were in eternal slumber within the Profound Ice Secret Dimension.
Some people were happy, some people were sad. The path of martial arts was cruel. If you wanted to obtain more than ordinary people, you had to keep fighting. In the process of fighting, you might succeed, or you might only be able to sleep forever.
The people from Wind Sword School gradually quietened down. Looking at the Teleportation Portal that was about to close, the smiles on everyone's faces had long disappeared. Up until now, only two groups of people from Wind Sword School had come out. One group was Xiao Long and the other four, who came out with Du Xiaomao. The second group was Lu Xuan and the other two.
There were only eight people in total from the two groups, and there were twelve people from Wind Sword School who entered the Profound Ice Secret Realm.
"Huang Lei died in the hands of Han Qing from the Profound Ice Pavilion, but I've already avenged him and buried his body properly. Kong Wenbin should have been killed by Han Feng, but I didn't have time to look for his body," Lu Xuan said softly.
Instructor Yang nodded with a slightly heavy expression. "Now it seems that the other two people should have died in the Profound Ice Secret Realm, but I don't know if they died in the hands of martial artists or because of the dangers of the Profound Ice Secret Realm itself."
Those who were selected to enter the Profound Ice Secret Realm were the elites of Wind Sword School. Losing one of them was a great loss, not to mention that four of them died at once, including Kong Wenbin, who was once the first core disciple. Instructor Yang really could not be happy.
"Fortunately, we have Senior Du's protection this time around. Otherwise, I'm afraid that at least one or two of us would have to stay behind." Xiao Long said in a low voice. The other four nodded and followed Du Xiaomao. Although they couldn't freely search for treasures, at least they could guarantee their safety. The disciples of Profound Ice Pavilion and other rank three sects wouldn't attack them.
As the few of them spoke, the teleportation array finally stopped operating and the light disappeared. This also meant that the trip to the Mystical Ice Secret Realm, which happened once every four years, had finally come to an end.
"Silence, everyone!" A loud and clear voice resounded in everyone's ears. It was Elder Gu Qi who circulated his Yuan Power to speak. His clear voice spread throughout the entire valley.
Immediately, the disciples who were in the midst of their discussions all fell silent and turned to look at Elder Gu, waiting for him to continue.
Sweeping his gaze across the crowd, Elder Gu spoke again, "First of all, I would like to congratulate all the disciples who successfully came out of the Profound Ice Secret Realm. To be able to enter the Profound Ice Secret Realm, it means that your talent and strength have been recognized. To be able to come out alive from the Profound Ice Secret Realm, you are the elites among the elites!"
Hearing this, the disciples of Profound Ice Pavilion were all delighted. To be able to receive the recognition of an elder was a great honor for them. One must know that the elders of Profound Ice Pavilion were all in the Origin Realm.
"Although we also have a lot of elite disciples who died in the Profound Ice Secret Realm, the path of martial arts is originally built on countless bones. Only with risk will there be rewards! Only by continuously struggling, can you become a true expert! Undergoing the baptism of the Profound Ice Secret Realm will be very beneficial for your growth and strength. "
Elder Gu's voice echoed throughout the valley, encouraging the disciples. Indeed, many of the disciples felt their blood boiling. After three months of training in the Profound Ice Secret Realm, they had indeed grown a lot. Becoming a martial artist wasn't something that could be achieved by just cultivating.
"Disciples of Profound Ice Pavilion, for your gains from the Profound Ice Secret Realm, each of you will have to pay 3,000 contribution points worth of resources. Of course, the sect will not take these resources for free. All of them will be converted into contribution points and distributed to you. You can exchange them for any resources you need." Elder Gu finally talked about the resources. Profound Ice Pavilion did not open the Profound Ice Secret Realm for free. The disciples would have to pay a portion of the resources they obtained from the Profound Ice Secret Realm to Profound Ice Pavilion. In exchange for the contribution points, they would be able to read the various manuals of Profound Ice Pavilion or use some cultivation grounds.
After a pause, Elder Gu continued, "Disciples of the five great third rank sects don't need to pay. As a subordinate sect of Profound Ice Pavilion, this is what you deserve. Of course, if you want to join Profound Ice Pavilion, you only need to pay 10,000 contribution points worth of resources. Profound Ice Pavilion will take half of these resources, and the other half will belong to you."
As soon as this was said, the disciples of Profound Ice Pavilion were in an uproar. Obviously, they felt that it was somewhat unfair. They were clearly disciples of Profound Ice Pavilion, while those third rank sects were outsiders. However, they actually had to pay resources, while outsiders did not.
"Silence. This has been the rule of Profound Ice Pavilion for many years. Do you have any objections?" Elder Gu shouted softly. Profound Ice Pavilion controlled the five great third rank sects. Naturally, they had to give them some benefits. Moreover, the disciples of the third rank sects were not strong. Profound Ice Pavilion did not think that they would be able to obtain anything good. If they also collected 3,000 contribution points worth of resources, then the disciples of the third rank sects would have come here for nothing.
Seeing that no one else spoke, Elder Gu then said, "Don't be in a hurry to pay the resources. The disciple who obtains first place in the Profound Ice Secret Realm will have a chance to become a direct disciple. Disciples who think that they have obtained enough resources can come forward and display them. However, half of the resources that you display will be given to the elder you choose as a disciple."
Finally, the selection of the first place was about to begin. All the disciples of Profound Ice Pavilion were excited. Their gazes constantly swept across Du Xiaomao, Xiao Zhaohong, and Han Feng. In their hearts, these three were undoubtedly one of the predetermined candidates. The first place would definitely come from these three.
However, the three of them did not move. Han Feng was about to step forward, but after glancing at Du Xiaomao and Xiao Zhaohong, the corner of his mouth twitched slightly, and he stopped.
No matter how many resources they took out, they would have to pay half of it. Naturally, they did not want to expose their trump cards. If they took too much, they would not be willing to part with it. If they took too little, it would not be enough. They all wanted to see what other people's trump cards were.
Seeing this, Du Xiaomao smiled softly, walked forward and said, "Then I will go first. However, there are not many resources."
While speaking, Du Xiaomao had already walked in front of Elder Gu. She took out items from her storage ring and placed them on the stone table in front of her.
The first thing that Du Xiaomao took out was naturally the Primordial Stones. Primordial Stones were the easiest to calculate. One after another, she gently placed the Supreme Grade Primordial Stones on the table. Many disciples felt that it was worth it just to look at them.
This was a Supreme Grade Primordial Stone. One was equivalent to 10,000 mid-grade Primordial Stones, which was equivalent to 10,000 contribution points. It was hard not to be tempted.
"Hey, Lu Xuan, I see that Senior Sister Du is taking good care of you. Could it be that she likes you? What would happen if you took her as your wife? She is beautiful and powerful. "Xiao Long said mysteriously in Lu Xuan's ear.
Lu Xuan was shocked and hurriedly covered Xiao Long's mouth. When he realized that Chen Xiaohan and Xia Chenxi did not look over, he breathed a sigh of relief and said in a low voice, "Senior Brother Xiao, don't talk nonsense. I didn't even know Senior Sister Du before."
Xiao Long suddenly smiled, but it was just an ambiguous smile. He did not say much. He did not know about Zhao Binger's relationship. He only knew that when Du Xiaomao knew that Lu Xuan was in danger, she hurriedly ran to save him. No one would think too much about it.
Lu Xuan was helpless and did not explain. This kind of thing, the more he explained, the worse it would get.
At this moment, Du Xiaomao had taken out 20 Supreme Grade Primordial Stones and placed them neatly on the table. Then, she began to take out various spiritual materials and spiritual medicines and placed them in a pile.
"All the resources this disciple has obtained are here. Elder Gu, please have a look." Du Xiaomao slightly bowed and said.
Elder Gu touched his beard and showed a trace of a smile, "Very good. To be able to obtain so many Supreme Grade Primordial Stones. Even these spiritual medicines are rare. The total value is about 260,000 contribution points. Who else wants to compete for first place?"
Lu Xuan's eyes swept over the pile of resources on Du Xiaomao's body. He said to Xiao Long with some surprise, "You guys are lucky. You actually found so many good things?"
Xiao Long gently shook his head and said, "In fact, we only narrowly escaped death. We found a secret place, but we did not expect it to be a Black Ice Demon's nest. It was Senior Sister Du who almost single-handedly killed them. Then, we found that these Black Ice Demons had hidden a lot of Supreme Grade Primordial Stones. Originally, Senior Sister Du wanted to share them with everyone, but we did not contribute, so we gave them all to Senior Sister Du."
"So that's how it is." Lu Xuan suddenly understood. It seemed that in addition to the ice spirit, some of the wandering Black Ice Demons also knew to form teams and collect Primordial Stones for cultivation.
At this time, another voice sounded. It was Xiao Zhaohong who stood up and said, "Let me."
Everyone looked at Xiao Zhaohong again. Seeing that Du Xiaomao still dared to step forward after taking out the things, it proved that Xiao Zhaohong's resources would at least be no less than this.
"Hehe, it seems that this time the disciples have gained a lot." Elder Gu laughed loudly.
Xiao Zhaohong did not dawdle. He went straight forward and began to take out his own resources. The value of the spiritual medicines and spiritual materials he took out was similar to Du Xiaomao's. However, there was one more piece of Supreme Grade Primordial Stone. There were actually 21 pieces of Supreme Grade Primordial Stones. No one knew if it was just right or if Xiao Zhaohong deliberately controlled the number of Supreme Grade Primordial Stones he took out. After all, half of them had to be handed over.
"Xiaomao, do you have more?" Xiao Zhaohong smiled at Du Xiaomao. He was sure that Du Xiaomao must have a trump card. It was impossible for her to take out everything at once.
