(Supplement 7)
Ye Xing, on the other hand, was not affected by the cold. The Star Flame Seed in his Dantian's Star Whirlpool was constantly emitting heat, allowing Ye Xing's body temperature to remain at a normal state. He did not feel cold at all.
However, since he was traveling with Lin Tongyu, Ye Xing could only follow her.
The two of them traveled for two days in the ice mountain area. On this day, a faint fragrance suddenly came from the cold wind.
The two of them had eaten the meat of the Crystal Fire Beast before and were very sensitive to fragrances. When they smelled the fragrance, they immediately noticed it.
Ye Xing sniffed in the direction of the cold wind. "Senior Sister Lin, do you smell a fragrance in the cold wind?"
Lin Tongyu stopped and closed her eyes. She took a deep breath and savored it carefully. Then, she nodded. "There is a fragrance!"
After speaking, the two of them exchanged glances. Their eyes were filled with excitement as they said in unison, "It's the Ice Lotus!"
The Falling Star Sect was formed because of the Falling Star Secret Realm. Countless elites of their ancestors had entered the Falling Star Secret Realm and were very familiar with it. These experiences were passed down to their descendants.
According to the experience passed down by the ancestors of the Falling Star Sect, there was a treasure in the ice mountain area known as the Ice Lotus.
The Ice Lotus was a Spiritual Grade herb that could directly raise a Martial Sage's cultivation. The Ice Lotus had at least three leaves. The more leaves it had, the stronger its medicinal effect.
Before the Ice Lotus matured, it would emit a fragrance that would spread for fifty kilometers.
If one smelled the fragrance in the ice mountain area, there was only one possibility: there was an Ice Lotus about to mature within a hundred kilometers.
Herbs that could directly raise one's cultivation were the rarest and most precious herbs. Every Ice Lotus was an extremely valuable treasure.
The disciples of the Falling Star Sect knew how difficult it was to cultivate to the Martial Sage Realm. Even a Beginner Martial Sage would find it difficult to break through to the next realm.
However, the Ice Lotus could directly raise a Martial Sage's cultivation. Who would not want such a precious herb?
Since Ye Xing and Lin Tongyu both smelled the medicinal fragrance, it was clear that there was an Ice Lotus about to mature within a hundred kilometers. This was a fortuitous encounter.
This was a rare fortuitous encounter. The Fallen Star Secret Realm only opened once every three years, but every time it opened, there might not necessarily be disciples that would be able to encounter the ice lotus.
According to the past experience of the Falling Star Sect, the disciples would only obtain the Ice Lotus once every three times the Falling Star Secret Realm was opened.
In other words, this was an opportunity that only appeared once every ten years. It was indeed not easy to encounter it.
"Let's go quickly and find the Ice Lotus. Don't let others get ahead of us!" Lin Tongyu said.
The Ice Lotus had matured, and its fragrance had spread for hundreds of miles. Those who could smell its fragrance were definitely not limited to just the two of them. Perhaps there were other core disciples as well.
The Ice Lotus grew in the Ice Mountain Region and was originally an ownerless item. At this time, whoever found the Ice Lotus first would be able to obtain the Ice Lotus.
This opportunity was hard to come by, so no one wanted to be happy for nothing. Naturally, they all wanted to get their hands on the Ice Lotus.
"Go!"
Ye Xing nodded and walked towards the direction of the cold wind with Lin Tongyu.
At this time, Ye Xing was in a hurry to find the Ice Lotus, so he couldn't help but quicken his pace. The difference in speed between the two was obvious.
Ye Xing suddenly overtook Lin Tongyu.
Since the two of them were in the same team, Ye Xing naturally would not abandon Lin Tongyu and look for the Ice Lotus alone.
Ye Xing, who had run to the front, turned around and directly pulled Lin Tongyu's hand and said, "Come with me!"
Lin Danyu understood Ye Xing's meaning and did not resist.
Ye Xing had the Star Fire Seed in his body. This heat was transferred to Lin Tongyu's body through his palm, allowing Lin Tongyu to no longer use her Celestial Essence to suppress the cold. Her speed also increased.
As the two of them moved forward against the cold wind, the fragrance grew stronger and stronger. After moving forward for more than forty miles, they found an Ice Lotus in an ice valley between two Ice Mountains.
This Ice Lotus looked like it was carved out of ice and had a total of five leaves!
"Five-leaf Ice Lotus!"
After Ye Xing and Lin Tongyu saw the Ice Lotus, they were immediately attracted to it. They could not move their eyes away and exclaimed at the same time.
The Ice Lotus had at least three leaves, and with each additional leaf, its medicinal properties would be stronger.
The Three-leaf Ice Lotus was already a rare and precious Spirit Herb. The Five-leaf Ice Lotus was even more precious. It could allow a mid-level Martial Sage to easily break through to the next realm. Its medicinal properties were very strong.
Ye Xing and Lin Tongyu were overjoyed. They were the first disciples to arrive here. According to their names, this Ice Lotus belonged to them.
As long as this Ice Lotus completely matured, they could pick it. With the powerful medicinal properties of the Five-leaf Ice Lotus, it was very likely that both of their cultivations would break through.
"Hiss —"
A long hiss interrupted their beautiful illusion.
In the depths of the ice valley, between the rocks, a snow-white python drilled out. It spat out a long tongue and stared fiercely at Ye Xing and Lin Tongyu.
This was a second-grade Demonic Beast. Its aura was strong, equivalent to that of a five-star Martial Sage.
Lin Tongyu immediately sucked in a breath of cold air, while Ye Xing's eyes lit up.
The two of them exclaimed at the same time, "Ice Python!"
The Ice Python was a Demonic Beast that could only be found in the Falling Star Secret Realm. It was much rarer than the Crystal Fire Beast.
In fact, compared to the Ice Lotus, the Ice Python was even rarer. Disciples who encountered the Ice Lotus might not necessarily encounter the Ice Python.
The Ice Lotus appeared once in ten years, and the Ice Python appeared once in a hundred years!
This was a saying passed down from the Falling Star Sect. From this, it could be seen that the probability of the Ice Python appearing was ten times lower than the Ice Lotus.
Ye Xing and Lin Tongyu exclaimed at the same time. However, the meaning of their words was completely different.
The two of them were surprised by the Ice Python's appearance. This was the same.
However, apart from this, Lin Tongyu was also surprised by the Ice Python's strength. It was equivalent to a five-star Martial Sage. With the Ice Python around, anyone who was not a five-star Martial Sage would not be qualified to compete with it for the Ice Lotus.
On the other hand, Ye Xing was more surprised than surprised. This was because the meat of the Ice Python was the same as the tender meat of the Crystal Fire Beast. It was also a top-grade ingredient that was rarer than the tender meat of the Crystal Fire Beast.
The Ice Python appeared once in a hundred years. It had indeed been nearly a hundred years since the last Ice Python appeared. However, the Falling Star Sect's disciples did not catch the Ice Python the last time it appeared.
Therefore, the Falling Star Sect obtained the Ice Python's meat nearly two hundred years ago. The seniors who had eaten the Ice Python's meat had already passed away. Those who were still alive, including the Grand Elder Lin Xiuyuan, had never eaten the Ice Python's meat, let alone seen it.
Ye Xing and Lin Tongyu knew about it only because the Falling Star Sect's records of the Falling Star Secret Realm mentioned the existence of the Ice Python.
Lin Tongyu looked reluctant and said in a regretful tone, "Sigh, this Ice Lotus is actually protected by the Ice Python. This is bad. We can see it, but we can't touch it. Unless we are a five-star Martial Sage, how can we be qualified to compete with this Ice Python for the Ice Lotus?"
What made Lin Tongyu even more depressed was that a five-star Martial Sage was only qualified. It was not certain whether they could defeat the Ice Python and obtain the Ice Lotus!
Ye Xing's mood was the complete opposite of Lin Tongyu's. His face was full of joy. For someone like him who loved delicious food, obtaining the tender meat of the Crystal Fire Beast was already a great thing. It was like obtaining a priceless treasure.
Now, there was another Ice Python in front of him. Ye Xing felt that this was simply a gift from the heavens. In his eyes, the Ice Python had already turned into a piece of delicious top-grade ingredient.
In the next moment, Ye Xing rushed toward the Ice Python.
Lin Tongyu was shocked. "Junior Brother Ye, what are you doing? This Ice Python is equivalent to a five-star Martial Sage! "
Lin Tongyu knew that Ye Xing's combat strength was very strong and could challenge those of a higher level. The reason why he could enter the Falling Star Secret Realm was that he had defeated the core disciple, Ma Ji.
However, Ma Ji was only a four-star Martial Sage, and this Ice Python was equivalent to a five-star Martial Sage. The strength of the two was not on the same level.
Lin Tongyu did not think that Ye Xing, who was only a three-star Martial Sage, could defeat the Ice Python, which was equivalent to a five-star Martial Sage.
The Ice Python was an ice-type demonic beast. It was born to be proficient in the power of ice. Even human warriors of the same level were weaker than the Ice Python.
Therefore, most of the five-star Martial Sages were not comparable to the Ice Python. Only the strongest among the five-star Martial Sages had the possibility of defeating the Ice Python.
"Senior Sister Lin, watch me kill this Ice Python. I'll treat you to its meat!"
Ye Xing laughed and the Purple Feather Spear appeared in his hand. He used the Surging Undercurrent and dashed toward the Ice Python.
Lin Tongyu looked at Ye Xing's back in surprise. She was extremely alert. Once Ye Xing was defeated, she would immediately rescue him.
When the Ice Python appeared, it thought that it would scare away the two humans. However, it did not expect that a three-star Martial Sage would take the initiative to attack it. It was furious!
The ranks of demonic beasts were very strict. Ye Xing was a three-star Martial Sage, and the Ice Python was equivalent to a five-star Martial Sage. It was two levels higher than Ye Xing. Naturally, the Ice Python did not take Ye Xing seriously.
The Ice Python, which was more than ten feet long, let out a fierce hiss. It jumped and pounced toward Ye Xing. It opened its mouth and spat out a snow-white light.
This was an icy current. Wherever it passed, the ice was covered with a layer of ice. It was extremely cold.
If this icy current hit one's body, even a mid-level Martial Sage would shiver. Their blood would be cold and their muscles would be stiff.
The icy current was like the wind. It did not have a fixed shape. Although Ye Xing's spear light scattered it, the icy current was pervasive. Many of the icy current still passed through the spear light and pounced on Ye Xing's body.
At this moment, Lin Tongyu's heart was in her throat. If Ye Xing could not withstand this icy current, he would be defeated by the Ice Python. He might even lose his life.
Her worry was unnecessary. When the icy current pounced on Ye Xing's body, Ye Xing did not change at all. It was as if the icy current was just an ordinary cold wind. It did not affect Ye Xing at all.
The Star Flame Seed in Ye Xing's Dantian's star vortex was very domineering and hot. It maintained the heat of Ye Xing's body at all times. When the icy current spat out by the Ice Python pounced on Ye Xing's body, it was evaporated by the Star Flame Seed.
The icy current of the Ice Python did not affect Ye Xing at all. However, Ye Xing's move, Undercurrent Surge, hit the Ice Python's body fiercely. The Ice Python was immediately sent flying dozens of meters away.
