In a dimly lit ice cave, Lu Xiaotian was sitting cross-legged on the ground. From time to time, a pained expression would appear on his face. A little further away, near the entrance of the cave, Luo Qing was leaning against the ice wall with her sword in her arms and a cold expression on her face. Her eyes were slightly closed, as if she was resting.
The space in the ice cave was not small. Luo Qing and Xiang Qingcheng had explored it before and found that it was more than a mile deep. There were originally two ice raccoons with extremely low spiritual intelligence who were sleeping in this ice cave. The ice raccoons had created a passageway that wasn't too big, leading to the other end of the ice mountain. It was still a few hundred feet deep from the other end of the ice mountain and had yet to be completely opened. However, for Luo Qing and Xiang Qingcheng, once a strong enemy attacked, they could completely open up the passageway in a short time and escape from the other end.
There was a slight movement at the entrance of the cave. Luo Qing's bright eyes suddenly opened, but when she saw Xiang Qingcheng flash over, she closed her eyes again.
Xiang Qingcheng moved some ice cubes that she had prepared in advance to block the entrance of the cave. Then, she set up two sets of restrictions to conceal one's aura, enveloping the entire ice cave. After doing all this, Xiang Qingcheng could finally breathe a sigh of relief. However, when she turned to look at Lu Xiaotian, Xiang Qingcheng still couldn't hide her worry. They could hide in this ice cave for a while, but they couldn't hide forever. She didn't know how Lu Xiaotian was doing now.
There were dozens of strong cultivators from various races who were lucky enough to survive in the ice cave. Most of them weren't weaker than her and Luo Qing. Even Xiahou Dun Feng, Mu Yuefeng Nichang, Xuan Yan Ghost King and other True Meaning cultivators might not be able to defeat them even if they joined forces. Every strong cultivator had their own unique methods. They could hide in this ice cave for a while, but after a long time, they would definitely be discovered by those people.
After all, the Dragon Essence was related to the advancement into the Deity Transformation Stage. Even if they had to dig three feet into the ground, they would still try their best to find Lu Xiaotian. As time went on, perhaps reinforcements from the immortal dynasties or the demon, devil, and ghost races would come in.
Even if Lu Xiaotian was safe and sound and had the Dragon Essence in his body. He was also the target of everyone's desire to kill. Even the Snow Region Demonic Deer, a Soul Formation cultivator, was no match for the endless backups of the Great Celestial Dynasties, let alone Lu Xiaotian, a Nascent Soul cultivator. The world was so big that there was probably no place for Lu Xiaotian to stay.
The only consolation was that the ice cave was extremely cold and not just anyone could enter. Xiang Qingcheng, on the other hand, hoped that the cold air in this ice cave would be a little thicker. With Lu Xiaotian's defensive capabilities as a body cultivator, he would most likely be fine. As for the others, even if they were True Meaning experts, they would not be able to hold on for long.
However, neither Xiang Qingcheng nor Luo Qing, who had the same thoughts, were aware that their bodies were trembling in this strange cold. The Fierce Monkey Wine was very strong, but if they drank too much, even their Primordial Spirits would feel a wave of intoxication. In this place where danger lurked everywhere, the two of them did not dare to let themselves fall asleep easily.
"The two of you, come here!" While Xiang Qingcheng and Luo Qing were deep in their own thoughts, they suddenly heard Lu Xiaotian's hoarse voice.
"You're alright?" Xiang Qingcheng looked at Lu Xiaotian with a face full of joy. Luo Qing's eyes also lit up.
"I'm a little better than before. I shouldn't die for the time being." Lu Xiaotian felt as if something was stuck in his chest, making him feel extremely uncomfortable.
"The two of you, take the Water Spirit Treasure and the Metal Spirit Treasure and refine them."
Lu Xiaotian stretched out his hands with great effort. The two jade bottles swayed in the air and flew towards Xiang Qingcheng and Luo Qing respectively. The Jade Water Spirit Toad was obtained from the River Suppressing Stone Tablet in Moshang Lake when he wreaked havoc in the Xiao Family. Lu Xiaotian had two of them. He had prepared to keep them for himself to comprehend the True Meaning of Water. He did not give the two to Xiang Qingcheng or Luo Ping 'er, who was also a Water Spirit Cultivator.
In Lu Xiaotian's opinion, it was only a matter of time before they comprehended the True Meaning of Water. On the other hand, it was extremely difficult for him to break through to the next realm. The Lightning Tribulation he faced during his tribulation transcendence was far more ferocious than that of ordinary cultivators. Compared to Xiang Qingcheng and Luo Ping 'er, he needed these more.
As for the other Metal Spirit Crystal Sparrow, he had obtained it from a Demon Race's spatial ring during the chaotic battle on the glacier.
"I can't take this." Luo Qing frowned and rejected.
"The Water Spirit Treasure and the Metal Spirit Treasure are useless to me. They're just right for you. "Lu Xiaotian said.
"You don't mean what you say. The cultivation technique you cultivate is neutral and peaceful. It shouldn't be the type that doesn't pick attributes. How can it be useless to you? Every time you break through to the next realm, there will be a strange phenomenon. You rely on your Dharma Body Dual Cultivation and many other methods to survive every time. Now you're giving away the Metal Spirit Treasure and the Water Spirit Treasure. Do you want to die during your next tribulation transcendence? "Luo Qing snorted.
"Every time you transcend a tribulation, there will be a strange phenomenon. What's going on?" Xiang Qingcheng asked in shock. Back when she went to the ancient tomb with Lu Xiaotian, her friendship with Lu Xiaotian was not ordinary. It was also through Xu Qin that she learned that Lu Xiaotian had used Xu Qin's spiritual land to transcend the tribulation. Later on, it was also through Junwang Consort Huya that she learned how dangerous Lu Xiaotian's Tenth Stage Body Cultivation was.
"I don't know what's going on either. Every time he transcends a tribulation, it's extremely dangerous. No one except him can transcend the Nascent Soul Lightning Tribulation." When Lu Xiaotian transcended a tribulation, Ancient Sword Sect's Wen Zhangyun had recorded it with an Image-Recording Pearl for Luo Qing's reference. Later on, when Lu Xiaotian became famous, some of his past experiences were dug up. She didn't even need to deliberately inquire about it. Just from the private discussions of the Ancient Sword Sect's disciples, she knew that Lu Xiaotian's Foundation Establishment was not simple.
"When he transcended the Tenth Stage Body Cultivation Heavenly Tribulation outside Xiangdu, it was indeed extraordinary." Xiang Qingcheng nodded at this time, but she didn't reach out to take the Water Spirit Treasure. Clearly, her attitude was the same as Luo Qing's.
"I already have the Dragon Essence. I don't need these two treasures." Lu Xiaotian took a breath and suppressed the discomfort in his heart.
"Let's wait until you refine the Dragon Essence." Xiang Qingcheng said unhappily. Lu Xiaotian obtaining the Dragon Essence was a complete accident. The Dragon Essence, which didn't affect anyone else, actually went out of control in Lu Xiaotian's hands and brought about this inexplicable phenomenon. She didn't know what the consequences would be in the future. Whether it would affect his future cultivation was also unknown. After hearing Luo Qing's words, she didn't have any thoughts about this Water Spirit Treasure.
"With the strength of the two of you, you've roughly reached the level of the Six Great Families' Patriarchs. Later on, you still have to face True Meaning experts. It's already difficult for you to protect yourselves. What will you use to protect me? If the two of you don't improve, you won't be able to pass this hurdle. What's the point of talking about the future? "With a puff, Lu Xiaotian could no longer suppress the abnormality in his body and spat out a big mouthful of blood.
