Not long after Qi Min crossed the Liangyu Mountain Range from Yuzhou and entered Liangzhou, he received news that the Snow Region of Ice and Snow had appeared.
I heard that Junior Zhang has also rushed there. Hmm, I might as well join in the fun as well, my Snow Wind Sword is only a thousand years away from the thousand year old Ice Stone and I can reach the upper grade of the Spirit Stage. The chances of finding it in the Snow Region of Ice and Snow are even greater than the Northern Frozen Plains.
In the valley where the Ice Crystal Jade Spring was located, after Daoist Master Pure Dust and Daoist Master Liu Qiu had left, Daoist Master Pure Yuan also stood up and left. Not long after he left, the aura of a Daoist Master flashed within the valley.
This person's aura was extremely secretive, as if he was training in a secret art of concealment. Other than Yang Junshan, the other three Spiritual Masters, including the Snow Wind Sword Sect's Successor Disciple Zhang Mo Feng, didn't notice it at all. Yang Junshan had only managed to catch a trace of this aura by relying on his refined spiritual consciousness, and this aura even gave Yang Junshan a sense of familiarity.
However, after the Pure Yuan Spirit left, one of the five springs had clearly been emptied out, but the one with the aura concealed just now had never appeared. Yang Junshan thought to himself, 'Could it be that the person outside the valley was planning a sneak attack, or that his opponent is hiding somewhere in the valley and doesn't dare to show his face?'
Other than Qi Min who offended the Snow Wind Sword Sect, no one else knew about that person. Naturally, that person was not his enemy, and even if he wanted to ambush and kill him, right now, even her tracks could not escape his senses. Naturally, she would not be caught red-handed.
At this time, his refining of the cold essence in the ice crystal jade spring had almost reached the saturation point, and the nine man True Divine Light in his body had already been completely refined, and there was no longer any spirit essence left in the source energy of his dantian, but instead completely transformed into nine man True Divine Powers. At this time, he could already be said to have completed the process of breaking through to the first stage of the Astral Transformation Stage, and it could even be said that he had already stepped into the great circle of the Astral Transformation Stage.
Of course, this Great Perfection Stage only allowed him to completely convert all the other Spiritual Sources in his body into Supreme Qi. He was still quite a distance away from reaching the threshold of the Qi Condensation stage, but even so, the Ice Crystal Jade Spring had saved him at least a year of cultivation time.
More importantly, after the Icy Jade Springs had been used to purify the true essence within his body, the originally vigorous Nine Transformations of the True Handle had become purer. The flaws brought by his forcefully breaking through to the Mortal Realm, the poison that had accumulated in his body had been completely removed, and as his cultivation increased in the future, these flaws would no longer hinder his cultivation.
In addition, the ice crystal jade spring also enhanced his body's tempering greatly. Although Yang Junshan was completely immersed in the ice spring, and other cultivators were present, Yang Junshan couldn't perform the eight movements of the Mountain Lord's Map, but he could still feel that after being tempered by the cold source, cultivating the sixth map of the Mountain Lord's Map was no problem.
More importantly, after he had started cultivating the Flowing Light Flower at the Martial Disciple Realm, his achievements in the Six Paths Pagoda had been stuck at a standstill. Although there were some flaws in the cultivation method for the Flowing Light Flower, when he had advanced to the Human Realm, he had already completed the cultivation method for the Flowing Light Flower at the Stomach Realm and reached the Great Circle of the Cultivation. However, he had yet to open the third Treasure Pagoda, and the difficulty in practicing the Six Pills was evident.
However, Yang Junshan had thought to try his luck when his body was almost full. He had started to communicate with his internal organs according to the cultivation method of the 'Six Innates Mantra', but he didn't expect to trigger the bladder in his internal organs to respond.
Cultivation of this organ was not an easy task. Thankfully, the training methods were complete. As long as he could open it, then everything would be fine.
All in all, this trip to the Snow Region of Ice was not a wasted trip. As long as he continued his cultivation, the bottleneck for him to enter the Qi Condensation stage would be greatly reduced. After all, it would greatly shorten the time for him to advance to the Qi Condensation stage.
At this time, the Snow Wind Sword Sect's Successor Disciple Zhang Mo Feng had also finished her cultivation in the Ice Crystal Jade Spring. He nodded slightly towards Yang Junshan, then leapt out of the Ice Spring and flew away.
Not long after Zhang Mo Feng left, Yang Junshan's spiritual sense moved. The aura that had flashed outside the entrance of the valley appeared again, and this time, he no longer hid himself. Instead, he jumped into the valley and slowly entered the cold pond where the Pure Yuan Zhenren had left.
Yang Junshan looked at the man in surprise and saw that he was also looking at Yang Junshan. He spoke first, "Fellow cultivator, it seems that we are fated to meet!"
This person was none other than the cultivator Yang Junshan met when he was near the stream in the forest. At that time, this person did express good will, but Yang Junshan was very cautious and didn't talk much with him. He didn't expect this person to find the Snowy Region of Ice after a long detour.
Yang Junshan smiled and said, "Yes, we meet again. May I know your name, friend?"
This time, Yang Junshan was the first one to ask for his name, which surprised him a little.
In fact, after Daoist Master Zhang Mo Feng of the Snow Wind Sword Sect left, this person immediately appeared. Yang Junshan knew that this person either offended the Snow Wind Sword Sect or had enmity with Zhang Mo Feng; otherwise, he wouldn't have used a secret technique to hide outside the valley, waiting for Zhang Mo Feng to leave before daring to enter.
That person didn't expect Yang Junshan, who was very wary of him before, to ask him first this time. After a moment of surprise, he looked at the other two cultivators and smiled, "I am from the Liangzhou Ice County, and I don't know who will be my friend …"
Yang Junshan smiled and said, "I am Yang Xishan. I have been travelling around Liangzhou with teacher. I have only advanced to the Mortal Realm two years ago. I am just a nobody."
Ren Qing laughed, "Oh, so it's Fellow Yang. You're joking, Fellow. With your age, once you advance to the Zhenren level, your reputation will immediately rise greatly."
The two of them chatted for a while, then Ren Ziling asked tentatively, "I wonder if you have any plans after coming out of the Ice Spring, would you like to join forces with me to explore the Ice Snow Region?"
Yang Junshan smiled and shook his head. He stood up from the Ice Spring and said, "Fellow, please feel free to enter the Ice Spring before me. Now, I have to leave before you can fully absorb the cold qi."
When Yang Junshan drove the light away, he saw a peak Martial Disciple cultivator wandering around the entrance of the valley. After Yang Junshan left, the Martial Cultivator saw two Icy Spring Frost Ponds in the sky and finally ventured into them.
By now, the Snow Region of Ice had probably shrunk down to more than half of its original size. The other few Spiritual Masters were a step ahead of him, so he didn't know if he would still be able to find any treasures in the Snow Region of Ice.
Other than the valley, Yang Junshan spread out his spiritual sense and immediately detected the intense spiritual energy turbulence more than ten miles to the south. It seemed that there were at least three to four cultivators of the Mortal Realm present in the battle.
Yang Junshan's heart skipped a beat, and he naturally wanted to watch the show as well. However, Yang Junshan's aura was soon noticed by both sides, and a voice came from afar: "But Fellow Yang Xiashan, please lend us your help. When this is done, we will split the treasures!"
When Yang Junshan arrived, he saw Daoist Master Pure Dust and Daoist Master Pure Yuan working together to block the attacks of the three Daoist Masters. Two of the Daoist Masters were indeed Spiritual Master Liu Qiu and Daoist Master Zhang Mofeng, and the one who had spoken earlier was Spiritual Master Liu Qiu.
He didn't know the other person, but he didn't know why this person didn't go to the Ice Crystal Jade Spring and instead joined forces with the other two Adepts to attack the two.
Upon seeing Yang Junshan appear, Daoist Master Liu Qiu then said, "Fellow Daoist Yang, this Pure Dust's senior and junior brothers have a thousand-year ice lotus on them. This ice lotus can be used to cure wounds and remove poisons, and is of high quality.
If there were seven mid-grade treasures, then this thousand-year ice lotus would be at least a seventh grade. If it could reach ninth grade, then it could be used to refine nine high-grade treasures.
The thousand-year-old ice lotus was indeed precious, but Yang Junshan had three treasures on him that were not inferior to it. Besides, he didn't want to make too many enemies in the Outer Regions.
However, while he was hesitating, the two men did not hesitate. Seeing Yang Junshan appear, the two brothers did not dare to bet on Yang Junshan's character. A green talisman was lit in front of each of their chests, and a breeze blew over from all directions.
"Not good! It's the Wind Manipulation Talisman. Quickly stop them!"
Zhang Mo Feng was able to see through the charms the two of them were throwing out, and he hurriedly warned the others to stop them.
However, the Adept duo had already made sufficient preparations. With the activation of the Anarchic Wind Talisman, the two of them immediately transformed into a cool breeze and disappeared into the air currents in all directions.
Without another word, Zhang Mo Feng rode the light and left. It was unknown whether he was going to chase after the two cultivators or leave alone.
Daoist Master Liu glanced at Yang Junshan, and thought to himself, "What a pity," before leaving in different directions. The remaining Daoist Master seemed to have found out where the ice spring was, and seeing the two who had teamed up, he too headed in the direction of the valley. In an instant, Yang Junshan was the last one left in the battle of the five.
Yang Junshan smiled helplessly and scanned the surroundings with his Spiritual Sense. Suddenly, he found a weird and weak Qi appearing in the snow and quickly distancing itself. Soon, it disappeared in Yang Junshan's Spiritual Sense!
What was this thing? How could it still survive in this snowy region?
Moreover, the aura just now was definitely not gone out of the range of his Spiritual Awareness. Instead, it had suddenly disappeared.
