Two resplendent lights, one violet and one azure, enveloped Jianchen's sea of consciousness. At the same time, they protected Jianchen's soul. As soon as the terrifying stream of coldness came into contact with the azure and violet lights, it began to slow down.
The rapidly spreading momentum finally met with an obstruction, and it was difficult to advance any further.
"What powerful coldness. Master, where have you come to? How can there be such powerful coldness? Even your chaotic neidan has been frozen," Ziying's voice rang out in Jianchen's head. Her voice was filled with shock.
Not only had Jianchen lost control of his body, but he had also lost his senses. The moment the sword spirits protected his soul, his consciousness had entered his sea of consciousness involuntarily.
In the center of his sea of consciousness, a five-colored crystal floated there. This was a five-colored immortal crystal that Jian Chen had accidentally bought in Walaurent City. In the past few years, the sword spirits had been absorbing the pure Immortal Qi within the crystal to recover their vitality, and the crystal had shrunk by a few sizes.
Beside the Five-colored Fairy Crystal, two rays of light, one purple and one green, slowly revolved around the Five-colored Fairy Crystal like a rotating Taiji diagram. The two rays of light seemed to be intertwined with each other, but they did not touch each other and always maintained a gap.
This was the original form of the sword spirits. However, the color of their original forms was much deeper than before. Jian Chen understood that the sword spirits had become much more powerful than before after using the five-colored immortal crystals to recover their vitality.
Although the sword spirits were recovering in Jianchen's sea of consciousness, they clearly did not pay attention to anything. They knew nothing about what Jianchen had encountered in the arctic Ice Goddess Hall.
Jianchen recounted everything that had happened to him in the arctic Ice Goddess Hall. The sword spirits immediately fell into a short period of silence. After quite a while, Ziying's stern voice rang out, "In the past, Qing Suo and I both sensed that someone was secretly spying on us with the senses of their soul. However, we were heavily injured and had yet to recover, so we were unable to find where the person was hiding. Looking at it now, that person was that protector Shui. Master, that protector Shui is extremely powerful. She probably doesn't belong to this world. With your current strength, you are powerless before her. You must not provoke her. "
"Sword spirits, are you saying that protector Shui came from another world just like me?" Jianchen asked in surprise.
"That's right. The only difference is that master came from below, while protector Shui came from above. Although she is extremely powerful, she is restricted by the laws of the world here. She can't attack as she pleases, nor can she destroy the balance here, or she will be punished by the world. Master should be fine as long as you don't provoke her," Ziying said.
Jianchen's heart sank with that. He had never thought that protector Shui would have such a great background. She was an expert from a higher world. In other words, he would not be able to save Ruijin's group in a short amount of time. As a matter of fact, he would not even be able to see his sister if protector Shui purposefully prevented him from doing so.
Although the sword spirits had said that protector Shui could not attack as she pleases, that meant that she could not attack without reason. Protector Shui had also said that the origin energy weapons of Ruijin's group were saint artifacts that should not have appeared this year. Protector Shui had used this reason to attack Ruijin's group. It was reasonable and reasonable.
"Master, Qing Suo and I have yet to recover our strength, so we are not protector Shui's opponent. However, we can neutralize the coldness in master's body. All you need to do is cooperate with us and break free from the bindings of the ice seal. Then, we will leave the icy plains as quickly as possible. Otherwise, if protector Shui attacks master again, master's coldness will increase by several levels. At that time, even Qing Suo and my assistance will be useless," Ziying sternly said.
"I understand. Ziying, Qing Suo, let's begin," Jianchen said.
Afterward, the azure and violet light in Jianchen's sea of consciousness became brighter and brighter. Afterward, the two streaks of light shot out from Jianchen's sea of consciousness like two sharp swords. The two streaks of light coiled around each other, but they did not touch each other. They shot toward Jianchen's dantian like a hot knife through butter.
The two streaks of light were like miniature suns. All the coldness along the way melted away as soon as they came in contact with them.
When the two streaks of light arrived in Jianchen's dantian, the coldness that had frozen his chaotic neidan immediately began to disperse rapidly. Jianchen regained control over his chaotic neidan.
Without needing the sword spirits to say anything, Jianchen immediately used his mind to control his chaotic neidan to spit out strands of Chaotic Force. Afterward, he worked with the sword spirits' energy to circulate through his body, quickly purging the coldness from his body.
A few seconds later, a huge sound suddenly rang out from the snowy tundra. Jianchen shattered the thin layer of ice on his body. Without any hesitation, he immediately rose into the air and flew off into the distance as a blur. He left the tundra as quickly as he could.
"Master, we've expended quite a lot of energy. We'll have to enter a period of deep sleep. We'll only awaken when master faces a life or death crisis or when there's a heavenly resource that can draw our attention," Ziying's voice was rather weak. After saying that, she did not move at all.
Jianchen sank into his sea of consciousness. As expected, he discovered that the sword spirits had dimmed slightly. Clearly, purging the coldness from their bodies had taken quite a toll on them.
In the Ice Goddess Hall, the silver-armored protector Shui remained motionless in her original spot like an ice sculpture. A thoughtful look appeared in her eyes.
Suddenly, a gleam of light flashed through protector Shui's eyes. She glanced in the direction Jianchen had left in, but she soon lost interest. She glanced past the origin energy weapons of Ruijin and the other two as she sank into her thoughts.
Suddenly, a resplendent light erupted from protector Shui's cold eyes. Immediately, the temperature in the surroundings plummeted, becoming countless times colder than a ten-thousand-year-old ice cavern.
Protector Shui slowly clenched her fist as a destructive energy gathered in her fist. She coldly said, "I understand now. I finally understand now. No wonder I always felt that something was off when I used the senses of my soul to spy on you. You've discovered that I was spying on you long ago and purposefully put on an act for me to see. Good! Good! Good! What a Mo Tianyun. What a Winged Tiger … "Protector Shui's voice became colder and colder. Her anger became greater and greater.
Protector Shui suddenly looked in the direction of the Tian Yuan Continent. A huge stone statue gradually appeared in her icy-cold eyes. It was the statue of a god that stood at the center of Mercenary City. The next moment, the statue in her eyes vanished, replaced by a huge divine hall with ninety-nine floors tall. This was the supreme divine hall on the Beast God Continent, the Beast God Hall.
"Winged Tiger, Mo Tianyun, just who are you? Even this queen has been fooled by you …" Protector Shui said through gritted teeth. She felt like she had been tricked by the Winged Tiger and Mo Tianyun. This was a great humiliation to her, a humiliation that she would never be able to wash away.
Protector Shui suddenly waved her hand and three finger-sized ice arrows condensed in the air. They then shot toward the three frozen origin energy weapons with lightning-like speed. With three crisp sounds, the Sacred Dragon's Sword, the Scorching Godfire Hairpin, and Black Fish's machete all snapped in half. They fell to the ground with a clatter.
Jianchen returned to the Changyang Prefecture of Lore City in a rather dejected manner after finding the saint artifact. He locked himself up in his room and did not take a single step out.
Ever since Yu Fengyan returned from the Ice Goddess Hall, her mood had greatly improved. In just a few days, she was glowing with health, and the worry between her brows had completely vanished. Even her haggard face improved day by day.
Jianchen locked himself up in his room for the past few days. No one came to disturb him. He currently sat on his bed as he held a dim high class monster core in one hand. He did his best to absorb the energy within to cultivate.
The monster cores had all been taken from the artifact space. They had been covered in dust for who knows how many tens of thousands of years. Through the corrosion of time, they could not even be called monster cores anymore. They were products between rock and monster cores. Not only had most of the energy inside been drained away, but what little energy remained was basically solid as well, making it extremely difficult to absorb.
After experiencing how helpless he was when Ruijin and the others were trapped, Jianchen's desire for great power was roused. As soon as he returned to the Changyang Prefecture, he locked himself up in his room to cultivate.
Jianchen did not use the active monster cores in his Space Ring. They all came from the Heaven's Incense School. After distributing a large number to Bi Lian and Xiao Bao, he did not have much left. Even if he absorbed all the monster cores, his Chaotic Body would not be able to reach the fourth layer.
There was still a large number of almost useless monster cores in the artifact space. Due to the difficulty of absorbing them, he could only barely absorb them with his special cultivation method and Chaotic Body. If he gave them to someone else, even the Holy Emperor would not be able to absorb all the solidified energy. As a result, Jianchen needed to refine the almost useless monster cores first.
He also understood that even if he refined all the monster cores in the artifact space and the Space Ring, he would not be able to reach the fourth layer. However, he would be able to strengthen his chaotic neidan a little at the very least.
The energy required for each layer of the Chaotic Body would increase by several times or even over a dozen times. The amount of resources required to reach the fourth layer from the third layer was unimaginable.
In the blink of an eye, Jianchen had already been in seclusion for several days. He had refined many monster cores during that time, but the effects were almost negligible. His chaotic neidan remained the same size, without any changes. Jianchen could not even sense any increase in his Chaotic Body.
"Jianchen, the worldly ebb has arrived early. It will erupt soon, so prepare yourself and come to the sea realm as soon as possible!" At this moment, Poseidon's vague voice rang out in Jianchen's head. It was gentle and extremely pleasant.
