Early in the morning, a gentle breeze blew and birds chirped. The bright sunlight shone on the entire land. The trees were lush and lush, giving off a sense of vitality.
"Is this the place?" Looking at the narrow cave in front of them, a voice asked doubtfully.
This was a dense forest located in a sparsely populated area behind the Han Family's mountain! The surroundings were covered with thick weeds. If not for Wang Chen brushing aside the fallen leaves and weeds, no one would have discovered this place. Even with Wang Chen leading the way, it took a lot of effort for the two to reach this place.
"Yes, this is the place!" Nodding his head, Wang Chen took a step forward and walked to the entrance of the cave to clear the thick leaves on the ground. In an instant, he could feel a gust of cold air blowing in his face. Even though it was a hot summer day, he could not help but shiver.
He had discovered this place by chance. At that time, he had walked less than 20 meters in and was almost frozen inside. He had to escape in a sorry state. It could be said that the memory was still fresh in his mind. If not for Lin Zhan saying that he needed a cold place to help him cultivate, he really did not want to come here again.
"Let's go in and take a look!" Lin Zhan said solemnly as if he had also felt the chill.
With a trace of anticipation, Wang Chen carefully walked inside. The narrow passageway made it so that they could only walk sideways. After about 10 meters in, the two of them suddenly looked at each other. It was as if the world had suddenly changed from summer to winter. It was chilly and chilly. Gusts of cold wind blew on their faces, sending chills down their spines. The environment was incomparably humid.
Drip, drip, drip … At the top of the cave, drops of clear water fell to the ground and made a crisp sound. Occasionally, one or two drops would fall on Wang Chen's body, immediately giving him goosebumps and causing him to tremble violently.
As they continued forward, the passageway gradually widened, gradually developing to a width of two to three meters. The entire passageway was shaped like a cone, small on the outside and wide on the inside.
When the two of them had advanced about 50 to 60 meters, the temperature had completely reached the freezing point. It was like a snowy day in winter, chilling to the bone.
If it weren't for the fact that he had the Quintessential Essence, which was constantly circulating in his body to bring him a trace of warmth, Wang Chen wouldn't have been able to stand it.
After a while, they reached the end of the tunnel, and what appeared before them was an underground cave about the size of a room! In the middle of the cave, there was a basin sized puddle that was particularly eye-catching. It reflected a glimmer of light in the darkness, and the water was clear and crystalline.
"Hiss … Frigid Pond! There's actually such a thing in this place! "Lin Zhan gasped in disbelief when he saw the puddle.
"Frigid Pond?" Wang Chen asked doubtfully. This pool of water was indeed bone-chilling. He could feel a wave of cold air rushing at him from the side. He could not imagine what it would feel like to dive into the water.
"That's right, it's even better than I imagined. This is the Frigid Pond, a place of extreme Yin in the world. It can only be formed after hundreds of thousands of years, it's too wonderful for words! Brat, you will soon experience its benefits. "He then turned his head to look at Wang Chen and said excitedly.
Frigid Pond, such a treasure had actually appeared in this place without anyone discovering it. This made Lin Zhan really excited. He could imagine what would happen if this Frigid Pond was discovered by someone else.
It was an excellent cultivation environment, an excellent body-tempering environment. It was a place that any martial artist dreamed of.
"Hmm, you should cultivate your Quintessential Essence at the edge of the Frigid Pond. I'll see if there are any other discoveries!" Lin Zhan said to Wang Chen after pondering for a while.
He had come here to find a place of extreme Yin for his training. Now, it seemed that it had already exceeded his expectations. With a trace of curiosity in his heart, Lin Zhan walked to the side.
There were obvious traces of man-made carvings in the entire cave. Even in the narrow passageway that he came in, after careful observation, Lin Zhan also vaguely found some traces of excavation. This place must have been visited by someone before. To be able to find such a place and conceal it so well, it was definitely not something that an ordinary person could do. Perhaps there would be some unexpected discoveries.
Hearing Lin Zhan's words, Wang Chen sat cross-legged at the edge of the Frigid Pond and began to train.
Suddenly, he felt a terrifying chill coming from the ground. It was as if his whole body was sitting on a huge block of ice, or even worse. There were gusts of chilly wind around him, and cold air assaulted him.
As he inhaled and exhaled, he could only see thick white air. What he inhaled was Essence Qi, and what he exhaled was hot air.
There was a thin layer of frost on his eyebrows and hair, and the cold air was rising.
The Quintessential Essence in his body circulated, bringing a trace of warmth to Wang Chen, so that he would not be frozen stiff.
Training in such a cold environment, Wang Chen clearly felt the difficulty. The condensation of Quintessential Essence seemed to be nearly twice as slow as before.
However, the Quintessential Essence that entered his body was exceptionally strong. If every Quintessential Essence in the outside world was a child, then the Quintessential Essence in this place could be called a strong adult, and the benefits were very good.
Traces of Quintessential Essence were sucked into his body with difficulty, and began to circulate in his tendons and vessels, bringing a warm feeling. After a while, Wang Chen finally got rid of the invasion of the bitter cold. It seemed that there was a trace of faint heat emitting from the depths of every cell in his body.
This was the energy that was left in his body after a period of medicinal baths that could not be consumed.
Under the pressure of such a bitter cold, it began to be extracted and re-absorbed.
Only when the Quintessential Essence in his body was full and reached a saturation point did Wang Chen slowly exhale a mouthful of turbid air. It was like a white mist drifting in the air, gradually disappearing.
He slowly opened his eyes and revealed a trace of a smile. His Quintessential Essence had become a little more condensed. The current him could feel his own improvement every day, and this feeling was very good.
"Hehe … Kid, look at what I found." The moment Wang Chen opened his eyes, the phantom of Lin Zhan appeared in front of him and said excitedly.
There were two simple and unadorned items beside him. One was a worn-out sheepskin scroll, and the other was a pitch-black wrist guard. Even in such a gloomy place, it still emitted a faint dark luster, and was particularly conspicuous.
Puzzled, he picked up the worn-out sheepskin scroll and flipped through it. Suddenly, Wang Chen's face lit up with excitement.
"Ghost Steps!" Wang Chen exclaimed.
At this moment, in his hands was a secret manual of martial arts, and Ghost Steps was its name.
It was a kind of footwork martial technique. Martial artists trained their body, Qi, and footwork. Not only was footwork the most basic, but it was also the most important. A good set of footwork secret manuals could bring unimaginable benefits in battle.
Suppressing his excitement, Wang Chen continued reading: Ghostly Steps was divided into three stages. The first stage was Lower Mastery, which allowed one to move erratically; the second stage was Imperceptible, which allowed one to communicate with one's mind; and the third stage was Advanced Mastery, which allowed one to move like a phantom, unpredictable and ever-changing …
Looking at the introduction, Wang Chen was completely stunned. This was a mysterious martial arts technique, broad and profound, and an incomparably powerful footwork.
"Hehe … Kid, what do you think? This is a Middle-grade martial arts technique, you've hit the jackpot! "Seeing Wang Chen's excited expression, Lin Zhan also said emotionally.
"Middle-grade martial arts technique!" Wang Chen could not help but suck in a breath of cold air!
In the Xuan Tian Continent, martial arts techniques and martial arts techniques were divided into Heaven, Earth, Black, and Yellow, a total of four stages and twelve levels! The higher the level, the stronger the martial arts technique. When it came to Heaven level martial arts techniques and martial arts techniques, they were priceless techniques!
This was actually a Middle-grade martial arts technique! The entire Han Family probably did not even have such a high-level martial arts technique! Even in his own Wang Family, there were only a few of them.
Especially when it was a footwork technique. Between martial arts techniques and martial arts techniques, the value of martial arts techniques was much higher than that of martial arts techniques. However, there was a special case among martial arts techniques, and that was footwork techniques. A good footwork technique technique was comparable to a secret manual of martial arts techniques!
There was a saying on the continent that everyone knew: A footwork technique is hard to find even with money!
No matter how good one's martial arts technique was, without nimble footwork, it was equivalent to zero. As the saying goes, a hundred practices are not as good as a walk. Nimble and changeable footwork techniques played an important role in battle. One could imagine how precious and rare a footwork technique was.
"Haha … That's right, calling it a Middle-grade martial arts technique is an underestimation. Damn it, if this guy practices it to the large success stage, I think it will be comparable to an Earth-grade footwork technique! You better cherish it, kid! " Curling his lips, he had also seen this footwork technique before, and was deeply shocked by its profoundness. Lin Zhan said with a sigh.
Such a footwork technique technique, if it were to appear on the continent, it would definitely be fought over by countless experts.
Taking a deep breath, Wang Chen forced himself to calm down and carefully put the worn-out sheepskin scroll into his clothes, lest he lost it.
This was his first martial skill, and it was also his most important martial skill.
"Where's this wrist guard?" Picking up the other item on the ground and playing with it in his hand, it was a black wrist guard, and there was nothing special about it. Wang Chen asked curiously.
"You can't use this right now, keep it for now. When you step into the ranks of the True Martial Practitioners, there will be a big surprise for you!" Smiling slightly, Lin Zhan said slowly with a mysterious expression.
