I am Master Maoshan

Chapter 1921 Ice Palace Invitation

"Well, Grand Elder Liu Jun, since you can't directly take out the Ice God Core for trade, how about we change our thinking and make a mutually beneficial deal? You also know that our Ice Palace's sincerity in cooperating with you is evident to all. As long as you can do us a small favor, we are willing to take out one hundred precious snow plums in exchange, even a hundred more would not be a problem." Elder Bi You's eyes flashed with a cunning light, and he spoke slowly, with a hint of temptation and probing in his tone.

Hearing this, Liu Jun raised a meaningful smile. He turned his head slightly and exchanged glances with Elder Chen Shanhe. The two thought to themselves that Elder Bi You was indeed a cunning old fox. He was willing to spend so much money. This so-called "little favor" was probably not an easy task and must be very difficult.

"Haha, Elder Bi You, you're too polite. Our Dan Sect and the Bing Palace have always been as close as brothers, sharing the same blood. It's natural that we are friendly forces. If we can help, I, Liu, will naturally do my best to help." Liu Jun laughed heartily, and his words were full of generosity and magnanimity, as if he had already regarded this matter as a piece of cake.

However, these words were heard by the Ice Palace guards who were just injured by the Dan Sect disciples not far away. They looked at each other with mixed feelings. What a "friendly army". If they hadn't been agile and dodged in time, they would have died. Are these so-called "friendly army" so ruthless?

Of course, the complaints and dissatisfaction in the hearts of these guards were just insignificant rumors to Liu Jun and Elder Bi You who were in the middle of high-level negotiations, and were not enough to affect the overall situation of their negotiations. This level of dialogue and transaction involved the interests and future direction of the two major forces, and the thoughts and feelings of these small characters were naturally ignored.

"Grand Elder Liu Jun is so kind and willing to help. That's great. Our Ice Palace is so lucky!" Elder Bi You had a look of joy on his face, with excitement flashing in his eyes, as if he saw hope for the future of the Ice Palace.

"Haha, Bi You, I told you that our Grand Elder Liu Jun is easy to talk to. What exactly does your Ice Palace need help with? Just tell us quickly and don't keep us waiting anxiously." Chen Shanhe said with a smile. There was a hint of sarcasm in his tone, but more of it was trust and respect for Grand Elder Liu Jun.

Hearing this, Elder Bi You took a deep breath and his expression became solemn. He slowly said, "Then I will say it directly. Our Ice Palace needs to refine a Chaos Kaiyuan Pill. This pill is very important to our Ice Palace. It is related to the future and prosperity of our Ice Palace."

"Chaos Kaiyuan Pill? Isn't that the legendary divine pill? How can it be refined?" Chen Shanhe was surprised when he heard it. As a master of alchemy, he naturally knew the preciousness and rarity of Chaos Kaiyuan Pill. This pill can not only help a Half-Step Divine King Realm expert to break through a small realm, but also has a 100% success rate without any accidents.

However, because the Chaos Kaiyuan Pill is extremely difficult to refine, no one has been able to successfully refine this pill. Even the Kaiyuan Pill can only be refined occasionally by a master alchemist, and the success rate is not high.

Elder Bi You saw the surprise on Chen Shanhe's face and felt a little uneasy. But he knew that he had to be honest at this time to win the trust and help of Chen Shanhe and Elder Liu Jun.

So, he continued, "Yes, Chaos Kaiyuan Pill is indeed difficult to refine. But our Ice Palace has been preparing for this for hundreds of years, collecting all kinds of precious materials and elixirs. Moreover, we have obtained an ancient alchemy secret book, which records the method and steps of refining Chaos Kaiyuan Pill. However, the level of our Ice Palace's alchemists is limited, and they cannot complete the refining of this pill alone. Therefore, we came to ask for help from Grand Elder Liu Jun and Grand Master Chen."

"I haven't heard of this, but if Elder Chen is willing, I can give it a try," Liu Jun said after thinking for a while.

He had indeed never heard of this Kaiyuan Pill. After all, there were at least tens of thousands of kinds of elixirs in the God Realm, and it was impossible for him to know them all.

Chen Shanhe's expression became a little solemn. He knew the importance of the Chaos Kaiyuan Pill and the preciousness and rarity of this alchemy secret book. He thought for a moment and then said, "Well, since you have put so much effort into this, we can't just sit back and watch. I will do my best to help Grand Elder Liu Jun refine this Chaos Kaiyuan Pill."

Elder Bi You was grateful when he heard this. He knew that with the help of Chen Shanhe and Liu Jun, their Ice Palace would finally be able to refine this legendary magic pill.

"Then everyone, shall we set off now?" Elder Bi You's eyes were full of anticipation and eagerness. He seemed to be eager to bring Liu Jun and Chen Shanhe, the two alchemy masters, to the Ice Palace. There was a subtle excitement in his voice, as if he was expecting a miracle to happen.

"What about the practical classes for our students in the room?" Liu Jun turned his head and looked at the students around him. Their faces were filled with curiosity and yearning for the unknown.

"Let's go together and visit our Ice Palace. This is also a form of practice!" Elder Bi You quickly responded, fearing that Liu Jun would change his mind because of this little concern. His tone was full of sincerity and enthusiasm, which made it impossible to refuse.

The students in the room nodded their heads upon hearing this, their eyes sparkling with excitement. They all knew that the Ice Palace, as one of the top powers in the God Realm, was not only powerful, but also mysterious. Ordinary people had no chance to see its true appearance, let alone enter it. And this time, they actually had the opportunity to go there in person, how could they not be extremely excited?
Even Chu Libie, who was always calm and composed, showed an interested expression at this moment. He narrowed his eyes slightly, as if imagining the magnificence and mystery of the Ice Palace. He knew that this would be a rare experience, and perhaps it would give him a new understanding of the path of cultivation.

"Okay, let's go!" Liu Jun nodded in agreement. Since the students were willing, he would take them to see the world. "Young Master, Young Master, can you take out your Autumn and Winter Shenzhou?" Bi You's words were filled with a bit of urgency and expectation, and his eyes turned to Mu Chuan, the young master of the Ice Palace.

Mu Chuan stood aside, his calm and deep eyes had already taken in every detail of the conversation. He naturally understood why Bi You would invite Liu Jun and his party to the Ice Palace at such a cost, not only for the future of the Ice Palace, but also to ensure that he would not lose a bit of family affection, because this pill was made for his grandfather.

"Please move aside." Mu Chuan's voice was calm and powerful, and his words seemed to carry an unquestionable majesty. Following his gesture, the people around him retreated one after another, making room for him.

Mu Chuan raised his hand and slowly took out an extremely exquisite boat from the storage space. The boat was small and exquisite, but it exuded a refreshing atmosphere, as if it was a work of art itself, rather than a tool for sailing.

"Go!" Mu Chuan threw the boat lightly into the air, and the boat seemed to be given life, and quickly expanded in the air. After a while, a huge boat several hundred meters long suddenly appeared above everyone's heads, covering the sky and blocking the sun, with a magnificent momentum.

The hull is a moon-white color, crystal clear, as if it were all carefully carved out of snow. It is covered with delicate and complex patterns, and every stroke reveals the craftsman's hard work and wisdom. These patterns are not only beautiful, but also seem to contain some mysterious power, which makes people feel awe.

The appearance of Shenzhou amazed everyone present. They all looked up, their eyes sparkling with envy and yearning. Mu Chuan stood quietly aside, his eyes deep and calm, as if all this was within his expectations.

"This is my Qiudong Shenzhou! It is unique in the entire God Realm," Mu Chuan said calmly, but his words were filled with indescribable pride.

Although the Ice Palace did not have an alchemy master, it did have an amazing weapon master. And the amazing Qiu Dong Shen Zhou in front of us was the masterpiece of this weapon master.

When Liu Jun heard Mu Chuan's words, a strange light flashed in his eyes for a moment, that light was full of curiosity and desire. His eyes were fixed on the Shenzhou, and he obviously had a strong interest in it.

Elder Bi You, who was standing by, couldn't help but twitch his mouth when he saw this. He sighed inwardly, thinking that his young master had been in the Ice Palace for too long, so he didn't understand the ways of the world, and didn't understand what it meant to keep wealth within reach! With Liu Jun's performance, he probably had to give him a Shenzhou like this.

"Well, shall we go on Shenzhou?" Elder Bi You said helplessly.

Everyone present was not an ordinary person. Although the Shenzhou was floating dozens of meters in the air, they did not need any tools such as ladders. They could easily board the Shenzhou with a light jump.

After everyone boarded the Qiudong Shenzhou, the light emitted from the Qiudong Shenzhou's hull became brighter and brighter, like a dazzling pearl, illuminating the surrounding sky. Then, the Shenzhou suddenly rushed forward.

Shenzhou was like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins, galloping forward at an extremely rapid speed, and its flying speed was as fast as lightning. However, what was amazing was that even though Shenzhou was moving at such a fast speed, the people standing on the Shenzhou deck seemed to be unaffected by the extreme speed and remained stable.

"The creator of this Shenzhou must be a master of formations with profound attainments!" Liu Jun glanced intently at the intricate and mysterious formation runes on the Shenzhou and couldn't help but admire sincerely.

"Grand Elder Liu Jun has a good eye. Elder Liu Feng of our Ice Palace is indeed not only a master in weapon refining, but also a master with extraordinary achievements in the field of formations." Elder Bi You hurriedly replied respectfully.

He had long heard that Liu Jun not only had outstanding skills in alchemy, but was also very proficient in the two fields of refining equipment and array formations. Today, he was fortunate to see him in person, and it was indeed true to his reputation. His profound attainments and unique vision were impressive.

Time passed quietly. The location of the Ice Palace was extremely far away from Wuyun City. The place they were in belonged to the vast territory of the Skyfire Divine King, and the destination they were going to this time was the vast territory of the Cold Water Divine King. It took a whole day and night to fly across an entire territory with the amazing speed of the Qiudong Shenzhou. During this long flight, the number of spirit stones consumed was too numerous to count.

It is no exaggeration to say that the consumption generated by this flight is enough to support the daily operation of a large city for a whole year.
