Time seemed to have stopped at that moment.
When the Mist Sword was caught by He Yiming, other than Yuan Lixun, the others all had a look of disbelief on their faces.
This was because when the Mist Sword came into contact with He Yiming's finger, it immediately disappeared without a trace. It was as if the Mist Sword didn't have the slightest bit of attacking power. Not to mention bringing him any punishment, it didn't even hurt him at all.
Li Mingxuan finally revealed a trace of shock. Although the cold Qi contained in the Mist Sword was far from her peak level, the cold attribute power it contained was not to be underestimated. Although it was not enough to seriously injure a Second Flower expert like He Yiming, she was confident that she could freeze his arm.
However, the final result was beyond her expectations. The cold Qi in the Mist Sword did not even have the slightest effect before vanishing.
She looked around and happened to see the faint smile on Yuan Lixun's face. Her heart skipped a beat, and she looked at He Yiming as if she had understood something. She nodded slightly.
He Yiming smiled bitterly inside. He knew that he could no longer hide the fact that he possessed cold attribute true Qi from this person.
"Supremacy Li, thank you for showing mercy."
Suddenly, an old voice rang out from nearby. Afterward, an old man slowly walked out from the mountain path.
The old man wore a light blue robe, and his hair was casually draped behind his head. However, he looked very neat and tidy. There was a gentle smile on his chubby face, and his small eyes had even narrowed into slits.
He did not give off any powerful aura at all. No matter how one looked at him, he seemed to be an ordinary old man.
However, He Yiming was secretly shocked. This was not because of the old man's tone, but because his all-hearing ability was unable to catch any traces of the old man's arrival.
Although he was distracted by his battle with Li Mingxuan, it was definitely not an easy task to hide from him.
Li Mingxuan did not even turn her head. She looked like she did not know whether to laugh or cry. She said, "Brother Ai, are you mocking me?"
Zhu Baqi stood in place and bowed deeply. She said in surprise, "Master, you've come out of seclusion."
He Yiming's eyes narrowed. Only then did he know that this person was Zhu Baqi's master, Ai Wenbin. He was also a top expert in martial arts whose cultivation was on par with Li Mingxuan's.
He sighed in his heart. Only by coming to Tianchi Mountain could he see these legendary experts. If he had not reached the fusion of the two flowers in martial arts, he might not be qualified to see these outstanding people.
Ai Wenbin nodded slightly at Zhu Baqi, then smiled. He Yiming. "Sovereign Li, you were holding back. If you had used your full strength, the result would have been very different."
Li Mingxuan snorted softly, as if she had accepted Ai Wenbin's flattery. As for whether her inner thoughts were the same as what she showed, it was unknown.
Li Mingxuan nodded slightly at Yuan Lixun. She said, "Miss Yuan, you should consider my proposal. I can assure you that as long as you agree, your future achievements in martial arts will not be inferior to mine."
Yuan Lixun bowed deeply. "Thank you for your high hopes, Senior. I can't thank you enough."
Li Mingxuan shook her head slightly. Although Yuan Lixun was extremely respectful to her, she did not mention anything about what she wanted her to agree to. Li Mingxuan could not help but feel irritated. She sighed softly and turned to leave. But when she passed by Ai Wenbin, she suddenly stopped and said, "Brother Ai, Miss Yuan's talent can only be fully displayed in our Rainbow Ice Palace. Your Tianchi Mountain can't interfere halfway."
Ai Wenbin laughed. "Don't worry, Sovereign Li. Our sects have long made an alliance. You haven't forgotten it, have you?"
Li Mingxuan glanced at him and thought for a while. "It's good that you still remember our alliance." With that, she waved her sleeves and quickly walked away. It was as if she had disappeared from the mountain path in an instant.
He Yiming's pupils abruptly constricted. He knew that Li Mingxuan wasn't using a two-point line wind technique, but in terms of speed, it wasn't slow at all.
He was secretly shocked. Could it be that these old fellows with the Three Flower at One's Prominence had such incredible achievements in the Lightness Technique? If that was the case, wouldn't it be a big problem for him to escape if he became their enemy?
After mastering the Essence of Wind, for the first time, he did not have absolute confidence in his Lightness Technique.
Zhuo Wanlian bowed deeply to Ai Wenbin. "Greetings, Sovereign Ai."
Ai Wenbin responded softly. "Send my regards to your master."
Zhuo Wanlian immediately lowered his body. "I will remember."
Ai Wenbin waved his hand indifferently. Zhuo Wanlian bowed and retreated a few dozen meters before turning around and leaving.
He Yiming could not help but feel nervous. He forced a smile and said, "He Yiming, disciple of Mount Heng, greets senior."
Ai Wenbin turned around. His expression had changed greatly. He Yiming felt relieved. The way this old man looked at him was completely different from the way he looked at Zhuo Wanlian. This was more or less a consolation.
"He Yiming, I've heard about your performance, and I've also seen it. For someone of your age, it's really an amazing achievement. "Ai Wenbin didn't hide his admiration for He Yiming as he spoke in a clear voice.
He Yiming smiled bitterly and said, "Senior, you're too kind. In front of you, how can I still be considered a junior …"
Ai Wenbin waved his hand and interrupted He Yiming. He smiled and said, "When I was your age, I hadn't even broken through to the Xiantian realm. However, you've already condensed two flowers, and they're the Fusion Flowers. With such an achievement, you're definitely the number one person in the world."
He Yiming's heart surged. It would be a lie to say that he was indifferent to such a person's praise.
"I saw your fight with Venerable Sir Li earlier, and I realized that you've created a Fusion Flower." Ai Wenbin paused before he asked, "How did you do it?"
"When I condensed the second Flame Flower, it automatically fused with the first Wind Flower. As for how I did it …" He Yiming smiled bitterly and said, "I still want to know."
Ai Wenbin sighed in disappointment. However, he shook his head and said, "I heard from Martial Nephew Chen that you have a replica of the Divine Soldier with the Five Elements Ring. I wonder if you can let I take a look at it."
He Yiming did not hesitate to take out the Five Elements Ring from under his armpit and respectfully handed it to Ai Wenbin.
Ai Wenbin took it and looked at it carefully for a while. However, he did not try to channel his Genuine Qi into it. He only looked at it quietly as if he was thinking about something. However, he did not say anything in the end.
He Yiming's heart moved slightly. He said, "Senior, it was a coincidence that I obtained this treasure." He then recounted what had happened that night. Of course, he did not mention anything about his epiphany or how he had won the battle. In the end, he said in a deep voice, "I heard it with my own ears that day. The ghost-faced freak admitted that he used this weapon to go deep into the mountains and steal the Wolf Totem Clan's sacred totem to frame me. Senior, do you know his origin? "
Ai Wenbin shook his head slightly and said, "Since this person has the strength of the Three Flower Realm, he can't be a nobody. However, since he covered his face, I can't make a judgment."
He Yiming raised his eyebrows and said, "Senior, do you know the origin of this weapon?"
A bitter smile appeared on Ai Wenbin's face. He said, "As far as I know, no one has used this weapon for thousands of years." Pausing for a moment, he looked at He Yiming's suspicious gaze and said with a smile, "Although this is a replica, I can tell you that its power is incomparably great. If someone had really used it before, then their name would definitely spread throughout the world. It is absolutely impossible for it to continue being unknown."
He Yiming pondered for a moment and finally accepted this explanation.
Ai Wenbin placed the Five Element Ring in He Yiming's hands and said, "In less than a year, this item will definitely spread like wildfire in your hands. However, you still have to be careful."
He Yiming was slightly startled. He asked, "Why?"
"Have you heard of the Five Elements Sect in the Eastern Great Shen?"
"I've heard of it, but it's said that the sect has long been disbanded."
"Hehe, you've only heard rumors. In fact, the sect hasn't been disbanded. It's just split into several forces." Ai Wenbin shook his head and said seriously, "Although most of them don't call themselves the Five Elements Sect anymore, if they find out that you have a replica of the Five Elements Ring, they'll definitely do everything they can to snatch it from you."
He Yiming was slightly startled, and a trace of distress appeared on his face.
Although he wasn't afraid of trouble, it didn't mean that he wanted to inexplicably provoke this kind of trouble that he didn't even know existed.
Ai Wenbin could not help but laugh out loud when he saw how troubled Ou Yangming was. "He Yiming, you don't need to worry. I'm only asking you to be careful. Based on your current martial arts cultivation base and with Tianchi Mountain as your backing, even if those fellas covet the Five Elements Ring in your hands, they won't dare to snatch it from you openly. As long as you're careful and don't fall into other people's traps, I guarantee that you'll be safe and sound. "
He Yiming also felt a sense of pride when he heard the elder's heroic words.
'Counter soldiers with arms, water with an earth weir. Since I have the treasure, I'll just have to deal with whatever comes my way.'
Once Ou Yangming made up his mind, his eyes became determined.
Ai Wenbin nodded to himself and thought more highly of the young powerhouse from Mount Heng's branch.
He cleared his throat and asked, "I heard that you once crushed Zhou Datian's Earth Flower with an earth-series combat skill. I wonder if you can show it to I?"
He Yiming was elated. He had stopped at a rather crucial point in his cultivation. If he could receive careful guidance from a senior with the Three Flowers at One's Prominence, it would be incredibly beneficial for his progress.
He bowed without hesitation and expressed gratefully, "I was just about to ask for your guidance, senior." (To be continued, if you want to know what happens next, please go to www.qidian.com. There are more chapters, support the author, support the original reading!)
