In silence, the Xuhuang Cauldron suddenly emitted a bright green light, dazzling and brilliant.

On the body of the tripod, the originally motionless patterns of flowers, birds, insects and fish now seem to be given life. They move nimbly on the surface of the tripod, tumbling and leaping, appearing lifelike.

In the reflection of the green light, an exquisite hairpin can be vaguely seen, like a bright star, shining brightly.

"Green Lotus Gilded Cloud Pattern Hairpin!" Yang Qian's eyes suddenly lit up, and the excitement in his heart could no longer be suppressed.

He took a deep breath, quickly closed his eyes, opened his mind, and tried to control this mysterious center of the formation through mind communication.

As his mind turned, the green lotus gilded cloud pattern hairpin slowly rose from the cauldron and hovered in the air.

The green light it emits is even more dazzling, as if illuminating the entire space.

Just as Yang Qian was activating the formation of the Sutra Repository, in the depths of Xiaoji Palace, in a quiet room, a gray-haired old man who was practicing with his eyes closed suddenly opened his eyes, and a sharp light shot out of his eyes, as if he could see through all illusions.

This old man, whose cultivation has reached the middle stage of Nascent Soul, has a large blue spot on his face, which looks quite strange and gives people a sense of unfathomable depth.

The next moment, he opened his mouth slightly, and a ball of green light shot out like a meteor, instantly transforming into a small three-legged tripod of ink-green color. Its appearance was similar to Yang Qian's Xuhuang Ding, as if they came from the same source.

At this moment, the ink-blue small tripod shone brightly. Wisps of green light emanated from the body of the tripod, making a buzzing sound as if whispering something.

The gray-haired old man looked at the small tripod in front of him, a hint of shock flashing in his eyes.

He felt the strong vibration coming from the small tripod, and an indescribable excitement surged in his heart.

"The monitoring magic treasure actually reacted! This feeling... Could it be that the real magic treasure left by the ancestor triggered the restrictions in the palace?"

The gray-haired old man muttered to himself, his expression changing unpredictably, as if he was thinking about this sudden change.

As time passed, the light of the ink-blue small tripod gradually dimmed, and finally returned to calm.

The gray-haired old man narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he had made an important decision. He took a deep breath, sucked the small tripod back into his stomach, and hid this mysterious monitoring magic treasure deep inside.

After a moment, the gray-haired old man suddenly shouted, "Someone come!" His voice was loud and majestic, instantly breaking the silence in the room.

As soon as he finished speaking, a young man in a blue shirt walked in from the door and bowed respectfully to Elder Ye:
"Elder Ye, what do you want?"

This young man in blue shirt is obviously a cultivator who has reached the late Jindan stage. He has a steady aura and an extraordinary temperament in his steps.

The old man surnamed Ye nodded slightly, his eyes revealing a hint of majesty, and asked in a leisurely voice:

"Tell me in detail everything that happened in the palace during this period. Has any outsider come to the palace?"

The young man in blue thought for a moment, then clasped his hands and replied:

"Reporting to Elder Ye, recently there have been frequent movements of monsters outside the palace, and patrols have been increased inside the palace to ensure safety. As for the foreign cultivators, as far as I know, two or three people have entered the palace. One of them."

As the young man in blue shirt spoke, the old man surnamed Ye's eyes gradually became deeper, as if countless stars were twinkling in them.

He listened quietly, nodding slightly from time to time, as if thinking about something.

The atmosphere in the entire room also became solemn, as if an invisible force was quietly gathering.

Inside the Sutra Pavilion.

Yang Qian stood quietly in the center of the seventh floor with a look of satisfaction on his face. The Xuhuang Ding had long disappeared, and the entire seventh floor returned to its normal tranquility.

"That's great. This way, even if the level ten Ice Phoenix and the incarnation of Old Demon Che from the Ten Thousand Demons Valley attack me, I won't feel any pressure at all. I can even snatch Old Demon Che's flag. As for the Ice Phoenix, hehe!" Yang Qian smiled deeply, as if he thought of something, and the corners of his mouth curled up more and more.

At this moment, a flash of fire suddenly shot into the secret room, ignoring the barrier of the Sutra Library.

Yang Qian raised his eyebrows, but immediately grabbed the void and sucked the flame into his hand, turning it into a raging fireball, which was a sound transmission talisman.

Using his divine sense to carefully scan the information in the flame, Yang Qian showed an expression of "as expected" on his face.

He immediately placed the jade slip in his hand on the stone platform and immediately turned into a beam of light and flew downstairs.

After a cup of tea, a beam of purple light flew to the front of Bai Ning Tower.

In front of the building, a slim and graceful woman stood there. It was Bai Yaoyi.

The light faded, and Yang Qian appeared in front of the woman. He smiled and asked, "Fellow Daoist Bai, is it true that the Ice Spirit Flower has been found?"

"Of course it's true! I originally thought it would take at least a month to get the news, but I didn't expect that Brother Yang could actually convince the Great Elder to mobilize so many people to search for the location of the secondary spiritual flower. In this way, the speed will naturally be several times faster." Bai Yaoyi looked at Yang Qian and smiled brightly.

Yang Qian smiled slightly, as if he had already seen through the secret. He did not show too much surprise, but just said lightly: "Oh? So that's it, haha! Fairy Bai, is it convenient for us to leave now?"

Bai Yaoyi smiled sweetly and nodded, "Of course! I am here to show you the way, Brother Yang. However, the location of the ten thousand year old black ice we found this time is quite remote, beyond the scope of Beiming Island. It will probably take several days to go back and forth."

"Hehe, this little bit of time is nothing. I don't have any urgent business. It won't be a big deal if I run for about a month." After a burst of laughter, Yang Qian said without hesitation.

When Bai Yaoyi heard what Yang Qian said, she just smiled and said nothing.

Next, the two of them did not waste any more time and immediately left the Hanli Secret Realm and left the Ice City.

Yang Qian followed Bai Yaoyi and rushed northward, the light of their escape flashing in the night sky like a meteor across the sky.

During this short journey, Bai Yaoyi told Yang Qian the secret of the ten thousand year old black ice.

"The ten thousand year old black ice is hidden in the Snow Howl Beast's lair?" Yang Qian stroked his chin, curiosity gleaming in his eyes.

“Yes, the disciple who discovered Xuanbinghua was not careful enough at that time and was discovered by the Snow Roar Beast. The beast chased him for more than a hundred miles and seriously injured him. He almost died.” Bai Yaoyi nodded and said.

"Oh, what level are these Snow Howl Beasts?" Yang Qian was interested. "I'm afraid this will disappoint Brother Yang. These monsters are only level 5 or 6, and they are not worthy of your attention." Bai Yaoyi said with a smile.

"Level five or six monsters are indeed not worth capturing alive." Yang Qian laughed when he heard this.

However, Bai Yaoyi's tone gradually became serious: "However, further ahead is the border of Beiming Island, and we will step into the vast ice sea.

It was completely different from the island, it was the world of monsters, all kinds of monsters appeared one after another. Moreover, as we got farther and farther away from the island, the level of the monsters we encountered would become higher and higher.

Generally speaking, we are unlikely to encounter monsters above level eight during a few days' journey, so we don't need to worry too much. However, in the depths of the icy sea, there are many terrifying monsters hidden, even level ten monsters.

It is said that the two great elders of our Xiaoji Palace had personally seen a level 10 ancient ice phoenix in the depths of the ice sea far away from Beiming Island. It is a creature with the blood of a true ancient spirit beast. It alone is enough to compete with most of the cultivators in our Xiaoji Palace."

"Level 10 Ice Phoenix!" Yang Qian narrowed his eyes slightly when he heard this.

"Brother Yang, don't worry! It is said that when our founder founded the sect here, he had a fierce battle with several of the most powerful monsters in the ice sea, and they even made an agreement with each other. Our Xiaoji Palace is not allowed to attack high-level monsters in the ice sea at will, and high-level monsters are not allowed to appear within a million miles of Beiming Island, otherwise they will be dealt with by our Xiaoji Palace monks. Low-level monsters are not subject to this agreement.

The monsters that besieged our Xiaoji Palace in the past were all monsters that fled to the north from other places in Dajin. If the Ice Sea monsters had intervened, our Xiaoji Palace would have been razed to the ground countless times. This situation has been the case since ancient times, otherwise how could our Xiaoji Palace stand on the peninsula until now. "Bai Yaoyi changed the subject and explained again.

After hearing this, Yang Qian nodded slightly, with a meaningful smile on his face: "The fairy is right. However, our journey is only a few days, so we shouldn't run into any trouble by chance. What's more, I, Yang, have some skills. Even if I encounter a level 10 Ice Phoenix, I have my own way to save my life. However, if I can really compete with this legendary Ice Phoenix, it would be an exciting thing."

"Brother Yang has great magical powers. He can protect himself even when facing a level 10 Ice Phoenix with ease. But I am far from that capable. If I really encounter a level 10 Ice Phoenix, I am afraid I will not be able to protect myself! Besides, an agreement is just an agreement. There are always high-level monsters that are violent and brutal and rush in without caring about anything. As a result, almost every year, we have disciples in the palace die at the hands of monsters. We'd better be careful on this trip!" Bai Yaoyi said with a wry smile while shaking her head.

Hearing this, Yang Qian looked into the distance, gazing at the crystal clear glacier below, and said with a faint smile: "Haha, Fairy Bai is right, but our journey is only a few days, and we can return in a blink of an eye. How could we encounter a high-level monster by chance?"

After saying that, purple light suddenly burst out from his body and his escape speed instantly increased by three points, like a purple lightning streaking across the sky.

In fact, Bai Yaoyi thought the same way, she was just explaining it just now.

Seeing this, her bright eyes moved, a dazzling cold light flashed around her, and she followed him in an instant.

The two of them were speeding across the icy sea, one in front and one behind.

As expected, there were no high-level monsters to be seen along the way, and even low-level monsters were few and far between.

The vast sea of ​​​​ice is like a pure land that has not been polluted by the world, which makes people feel relaxed and happy.

So after three days and three nights of non-stop flying, they finally arrived above a huge ice crack.

"Is this the lair of the Snow Howl Beast?" Yang Qian stared at the deep ice crack in front of him. A biting cold wind whistled out from it. He couldn't help but frowned and asked calmly.

"Yes, this place is indeed the place my disciple talked about!" The beautiful lady Bai Yaoyi floated beside Yang Qian, looked around for a few times, and said affirmatively.

"In that case, let's lure them out directly." Yang Qian nodded, raised one hand and made a gesture. With a flash of spiritual light all over his body, purple arcs of electricity suddenly appeared in front of him. After a few "puff" sounds, the arcs suddenly grew wildly and turned into fist-sized purple electric balls.

"go with!"

He gently swept his sleeves towards the dozens of electric balls in front of him. Amidst the whistling sound, a purple light enveloped these balls and they fell straight down. In the blink of an eye, they sank into the dark crack and disappeared without a trace.

Yang Qian and Bai Yaoyi stared down without blinking.

But after a long while, the crack was still as calm as before, without any sound of explosion, and the silence was a little eerie.

Yang Qian and Bai Yaoyi looked at each other, with a hint of surprise on their faces.

"It's just a level five or six monster, it's impossible for it to take away these fireballs silently. It seems there are more powerful monsters below." Yang Qian said after touching his chin.

“Maybe, my disciple didn’t go deep into the ice crack, and only saw the ten thousand year old black ice and black ice flowers at the edge, and then he was discovered by the Snow Roar Beast.” Bai Yaoyi also showed a trace of solemnity.

"Hehe, it doesn't matter! I'll use my spirit beast to force them out." Yang Qian waved his hand lightly, as if everything was under control.

He patted a spirit beast bag on his waist with one hand, and suddenly, a golden and silver torrent surged out, as if the stars in the sky had fallen, covering the entire sky.

These golden and silver dots danced in the air, and then turned into tiny insects with flapping wings, looking hideous and ferocious.

Yang Qian lowered his head slightly and issued a low command to the swarm of gold-eating insects in the air.

These gold-eating insects responded immediately, buzzing all over their bodies, and like a well-trained army, they dived into the ice cracks below.

When Bai Yaoyi saw this, a hint of surprise flashed across her face, but she didn't say anything.

Yang Qian was not afraid at all that these gold-eating bugs would encounter any danger. After all, when thousands of gold-eating bugs, which had been strengthened many times, joined forces, they could protect themselves even if they encountered an eighth-level monster.

Sure enough, not long after, a deafening sound of fighting came from the ice crack below. The sound rolled in like thunder, getting louder and louder.

It seemed as if something was struggling inside, trying to break through the ice.

The whole scene is like a thrilling painting, which makes people's heart beat faster and their blood boil.

Yang Qian pursed his lips slightly, and in the silence he flicked his sleeves lightly, as if the wind had passed by without leaving a trace.

However, at this silent moment, three bright rays of light suddenly shot out from the sleeves, like shooting stars across the night sky, brilliant and dazzling.

They quickly transformed in the air, becoming three flying swords that flashed silver, gold, and blue light. They were about a foot long and hovered in the sky above the ice cracks, shining with light, and stood still like stars.

Seeing this, Bai Yaoyi raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile.

She did not make any attacking moves, obviously having enough confidence in Yang Qian's strength.

In her opinion, it would be completely easy for Yang Qian to deal with the monster that was about to emerge from the ice crack alone. It would be a piece of cake.

After a while, a strange roar of an animal was clearly heard from below, followed by a gust of white snow wind sweeping out, mixed with seven or eight snow-white monster beasts that looked like lions, but all of them looked extremely terrified, as if they were running for their lives.
