Ah Hu looked curiously at that blue spirit spring, while Yan Zhaoge raised his head, looking at the surrounding heavens and earth.
Feeling the circulation of the spiritual qi between the heavens and the earth, he extended his hand and used his aura-qi to capture a portion of the blue spring water, carefully savoring it.
After a long time, Yan Zhaoge murmured, "The time is still not ripe; the spiritual qi here needs to accumulate a little more."
Saying thus, Yan Zhaoge looked at his surroundings, then exerted force once more.
This time, however, he destroyed the surrounding soil and rocks, burying the mouth of that blue hot spring once more.
The changes in the soil and rocks were inevitably a little conspicuous on the snowy plains.
The aura-qi around Yan Zhaoge's body abruptly changed, becoming bone piercingly cold. Streams of dense white aura-qi resembled numerous ice dragons, flying about in the air before landing on the ground, sealing up the soil and rocks that had been broken apart earlier.
By the side, Ah Hu also helped to fill in the gaps, reconstructing the scene so that it looked more or less the same as its surroundings, not being too different.
Having done all this, Yan Zhaoge said, "Come, let's go to the next place first."
As he led the way, Yan Zhaoge said, "Ah Hu, give me those four sabres that I passed to you earlier."
Ah Hu did as he was told, taking out four extremely ordinary-looking short sabres that were no longer than a foot long, handing them over to Yan Zhaoge.
Looking carefully, one would be able to discover that these four short sabres clearly still had not been sharpened, their edges still being blunt.
On their blades, however, a crimson light flickered, resembling blazing fire.
Receiving these four short sabres, Yan Zhaoge swept them with his aura-qi, causing them to hover in mid-air, stopping by Yan Zhaoge's side.
As the sabres shook, flowing fire vaguely danced about, condensing into an illusory line of fire above Yan Zhaoge's head, drifting indeterminately into the distance.
Following the general direction in which the line of fire extended, Yan Zhaoge brought Ah Hu along as they advanced.
As they advanced, that illusory line of fire gradually stabilized, finally pointing straight in a single direction.
This illusory line of fire was extremely conspicuous amidst the wind and snow, but only Yan Zhaoge who wielded those four sabres could see it.
Following the direction of the line of fire, after a long journey, Yan Zhaoge and Ah Hu finally stopped.
Following the line of fire on the snowy ground, Yan Zhaoge saw that the illusory line of fire shot straight into the ground.
Yan Zhaoge raised his head to observe his surroundings, feeling the flow of the spiritual qi here. After a while, he muttered to himself, "This place should be fine."
He patted the ground lightly with his palm, causing the ground to tremble.
The four blades hovering in the air descended, their tips touching the ground.
Yan Zhaoge reached out, slamming the four sabres into the ground one after another.
At this moment, a scarlet flame appeared on the saber hilt that was left outside the soil. In the next moment, the scarlet flame slowly turned into an icy blue.
Yan Zhaoge nodded, pulling out the four sabres one by one before retrieving the Underground Splitting Shuttle once more, riding it alongside Ah Hu as they entered the depths of the great earth down below.
In the frozen ground, the Underground Splitting Shuttle didn't seem very agile.
However, very quickly, Yan Zhaoge who was controlling the Underground Splitting Shuttle felt the pressure up ahead lessen.
The Underground Splitting Shuttle shot out of the soil and rocks. While the surroundings were still completely dark, Yan Zhaoge could determine that the place he was currently in was completely surrounded by a thick layer of ice.
Here, hidden deep underground in a massive ice cave, was also one of Yan Zhaoge's targets.
Passing through the ice layer, they suddenly came to an empty space. Yan Zhaoge and Ah Hu had already exited the ice layer on the Underground Splitting Shuttle, arriving in the empty space within the ice cave.
Being underground, within the ice cave, it should originally be a completely sealed space, but Yan Zhaoge and Ah Hu were able to breathe freely here.
The environment before them also lit up slightly, turning dark blue.
Looking at the blue stream of light that resembled a dark river of glaciers flowing silently before him, Yan Zhaoge instantly smiled, "It's here."
Ah Hu stared at that blue stream of light, "Young Master, this thing seems to be an existence formed from the highly condensed qi of ice and snow."
Yan Zhaoge said, "You're right. Even Essence Talisman Martial Grandmasters might not be able to withstand it. Therefore, you must remember not to touch it, not even a single drop of it. Otherwise, you will instantly be frozen into an ice sculpture, all of your flesh and blood frozen solid."
Ah Hu nodded, "In this ice cave, it instead doesn't feel that cold. Therefore, the cold qi has all been condensed within the blue stream of light. Just looking at it would cause one's heart to palpitate."
"This is the Extreme Northern Icy Plains, the source of the land of ice and snow, born of the creation of the heavens and the earth, the Ice Pith Vein here," Yan Zhaoge's expression was rather solemn, "This is actually still just a tiny branch vein."
"If it were the main vein, even Martial Saints would not be able to touch it lightly. If one were to plunge their entire body within, they might also be frozen to death."
Yan Zhaoge sighed emotionally, "The extreme coldness of the heavens and earth of the Eight Extremities World surpasses this."
Ah Hu shrunk his neck back, "Then, Young Master, what are we doing here?"
Yan Zhaoge said, "Doing an experiment. If it succeeds, we might be able to accomplish something major."
Ah Hu blinked, a blank look on his face.
Yan Zhaoge did not cease as he took out various materials that he had prepared earlier, setting them up as he said, "It is recorded in ancient texts that before the Great Calamity, there was once a hegemonic power of the martial dao known as the Snowy Immortal Palace. Within the Snowy Immortal Palace was a Heavenly Frost Ice Spring which was extremely miraculous."
"However, afterwards, without any prior warning whatsoever, this Heavenly Frost Ice Spring began to slowly dry up. The reason for this could not be ascertained."
Yan Zhaoge raised his hands, four fiery red sabres flying out one after another, stabbing into the layer of ice up above in four different directions.
"I also do not understand the reason for this, but I have some guesses," Yan Zhaoge said, "The creation of the heavens and the earth is actually one and the same. “
"The spiritual qi flow of the entire world seems to be going their own way, forming layer after layer of variations. However, if we look at it from a holistic perspective, there is a network to follow."
"It is just that some are more obvious, while some are more concealed. Some can be touched by us, while some cannot."
Using various materials, Yan Zhaoge speedily set up a formation here.
Even as he planned the formation, he said, "Extreme cold and extreme heat seem to oppose each other, but under certain circumstances, it is actually like yin and yang merging together."
"No one attacked the Snowy Immortal Palace that year. Under normal circumstances, the Heavenly Frost Ice Spring of the Snowy Immortal Palace would also have been far from having its spiritual qi completely depleted. What could have caused the spring water to dry then?"
Finishing his work, Yan Zhaoge lightly rubbed his temples, "My guess is that someone opened up a different path, exceeding everyone's expectations, exceeding even the Snowy Immortal Palace's expectations. Using a method that no one would have thought of, seemingly bizarre, he succeeded in doing so."
Hearing this, Ah Hu thought about it, "Young Master, what you mean is that someone touched the Fire Pith Vein, affecting the opposition between ice and fire, yin and yang merging, thereby changing the Ice Pith Vein and causing the Heavenly Frost Ice Spring of the Snowy Immortal Palace to naturally dry up?"
Yan Zhaoge nodded, "It is very difficult to say. Under normal circumstances, if that person really had such great ability, he would just directly attack the Snowy Immortal Palace, trampling them to the ground. However, this person did not do so. This means that he may only have used some sort of shortcut, truly moving a thousand catties with little effort, thus achieving his goal. "
Ah Hu asked curiously, "First not mentioning whether there is such a great force to affect the earth veins, how can he be sure that only the Heavenly Frost Ice Spring of the Snowy Immortal Palace would be affected, with nothing happening to the other Ice Pith Veins?"
