Cangming Mountain, located in the extreme north of the continent, is covered with ice and snow all year round, and is extremely cold. According to legend, a thousand-year-old snow lotus grows on the top of Cangming Mountain. This lotus is a spiritual object of heaven and earth, containing extremely pure ice and snow power. If you can get it, you can not only consolidate your cultivation, but may even break through the peak of the incarnation and enter a higher realm.
After breaking through the peak of the Spiritualization Realm, Fu Shaoping and Nangong Wan were immersed in the joy of their improved cultivation when they suddenly received an invitation from Cangming Mountain. The letter mentioned that there was a thousand-year-old snow lotus growing on the top of Cangming Mountain. This lotus was a spiritual object of heaven and earth, containing extremely pure ice and snow power. If they could get it, they would not only be able to consolidate their cultivation, but they might even break through the peak of the Spiritualization Realm and enter a higher realm.
After reading the letter, Fu Shaoping's eyes were deep and he said in a deep voice: "The Thousand Mountain Snow Lotus is a spiritual object of heaven and earth. If we can obtain it, it will be of great benefit to our cultivation. However, Cangming Mountain is an extremely cold place with many dangers. We need to act with caution."
Nangong Wan nodded, a hint of determination flashed in his eyes: "The Thousand Mountain Snow Lotus is indeed rare, but the extreme cold power of Cangming Mountain should not be underestimated. We need to be fully prepared before we can deal with it."
The two discussed for a while and decided to set off for Cangming Mountain immediately. They each prepared some magical instruments and elixirs to resist the extreme cold, ensuring that they could maintain the best condition in the extreme cold environment.
A few days later, Fu Shaoping and Nangong Wan arrived at the foot of Cangming Mountain. Looking up, Cangming Mountain towered into the clouds, the top of the mountain was covered with thick ice and snow, and the cold wind was howling, as if even the air was frozen.
Fu Shaoping took a deep breath, feeling the extreme coldness in the air, and said in a deep voice: "The cold here is even more severe than rumored. We need to be careful."
Nangong Wan nodded, and quickly formed seals with his hands. The spiritual power in his body surged, forming a light shield that enveloped the two of them. The shield isolated the cold air from the outside world, allowing them to stay warm in the extremely cold environment.
The two walked slowly along the mountain road. The higher they went, the colder it became. The ice and snow around them seemed to have life, constantly attacking them. Fu Shaoping looked solemn, and he formed seals with his hands. The spiritual power in his body burst out, forming a powerful barrier to keep the ice and snow out.
After several days of arduous journey, Fu Shaoping and Nangong Wan finally arrived at the top of Cangming Mountain. On the top of the mountain, there was a world of ice and snow, surrounded by a vast expanse of white, with only a crystal clear snow lotus growing in the center.
The snow lotus was snow-white, with a light frost covering its petals, emitting the pure power of ice and snow. Fu Shaoping's eyes lit up, and he said in a deep voice: "That is the Qianshan Snow Lotus!"
Nangong Wan nodded, a hint of joy flashing in his eyes: "It is indeed a spiritual object of heaven and earth. We finally found it."
However, just as the two were about to approach the snow lotus, the surrounding ice and snow suddenly trembled violently, as if something was waking up. Fu Shaoping's expression froze, and he said in a deep voice: "Be careful, something is coming!"
Before he could finish his words, a gigantic ice and snow beast broke out from the snow. It had a huge body, made entirely of ice and snow, and its eyes flashed with cold light as it stared straight at the two of them.
Nangong Wan quickly formed a seal, the spiritual power in his body surged, and he said in a deep voice: "This is the ice and snow beast guarding the snow lotus. We must defeat it before we can get the snow lotus."
Fu Shaoping nodded, and quickly formed seals with his hands. The spiritual power in his body burst out, forming a dazzling spiritual sword. He shouted, and his figure flashed, rushing straight towards the ice and snow beast.
The ice beast roared, and its huge ice claws slapped down, hitting Fu Shaoping directly. Fu Shaoping flashed, and the spirit sword cut through the sky and pierced the chest of the ice beast. However, the ice beast's defense was extremely strong, and the spirit sword pierced it, leaving only a shallow mark.
Nangong Wan saw this and quickly formed a seal. The spiritual power in his body surged, and as he waved his hands, he injected his magic power into the "Nine Heavens Thunder Array" that had been set up long ago. The array was instantly activated, and complex runes appeared on the ground, forming a huge protective shield that enveloped the entire valley.
"Nine Skies control the thunder, heaven and earth return to their origin!" Nangong Wan shouted, and the runes in the formation quickly lit up, emitting powerful spiritual power fluctuations, forming a confrontation with the thunder in the sky.
In the sky, the power of the thunder tribulation gradually gathered, and lightning and thunder roared in the dark clouds, as if destructive thunder would fall at any time. Nangong Wan looked solemn, and his hands kept forming seals to maintain the operation of the formation, while guiding the power of the thunder tribulation to prevent it from getting out of control.
Fu Shaoping tried his best to deal with the attack of the ice and snow beast. He used the Daluo Vajra Seal, formed seals with both hands, and the spiritual power in his body burst out, forming a dazzling golden light seal, which hit the ice and snow beast directly. The ice and snow beast was hit by the light seal, and its body shook slightly, but soon returned to normal.
"This guy's defense is too strong!" Fu Shaoping was secretly shocked, but he did not panic. Instead, he quickly adjusted his tactics and used the Qiankun Niluan Palm. He waved his hands, and the spiritual power in his body surged, forming a huge palm print, which hit the head of the ice and snow beast directly. The ice and snow beast was hit by the palm print, and its body shook again, but it still did not suffer fatal damage.
Facing the stubborn defense of the ice and snow monster, Fu Shaoping and Nangong Wan realized that it was difficult to defeat it with conventional attack methods alone. The two quickly adjusted their strategies and decided to join forces to perform a more powerful joint attack.
Fu Shaoping and Nangong Wan looked at each other and understood each other. Fu Shaoping used the Qiankun Niluan Palm again, while Nangong Wan tried his best to maintain the Jiuxiao Yulei Formation. Together, they directed the power of the thunder tribulation to the ice and snow beast.
"Boom!" With a loud noise, the power of the thunder tribulation finally arrived and hit the ice and snow beast directly. The ice and snow beast was hit by the thunder tribulation, and its body shook violently, and finally fell.
After defeating the Ice and Snow Giant, Fu Shaoping and Nangong Wan were not in a hurry to leave the top of Cangming Mountain. They knew that the Ice and Snow Giant, as a spiritual beast guarding the Qianshan Snow Lotus, might contain precious spiritual materials in its corpse, and might even hide some undiscovered secrets. Therefore, the two decided to carefully clean up the Ice and Snow Giant's corpse to make full use of its value.
Fu Shaoping and Nangong Wan first carefully examined the corpse of the ice and snow beast. Since the ice and snow beast was condensed from pure ice and snow power, its corpse did not rot like ordinary creatures, but turned into a pile of crystal clear ice and snow fragments. These fragments contained rich ice and snow power, which was obviously a rare spiritual material.
Fu Shaoping squatted down, picked up a piece of ice and snow, felt the power contained in it, and said in a deep voice: "The ice and snow power contained in these ice and snow fragments is extremely pure and can be used to refine magic tools or pills."
Nangong Wan nodded and added: "Not only that, there may be some undiscovered secrets hidden in the remains of the ice and snow beast. We need to search carefully to avoid missing any."
The two began to work together, with Fu Shaoping responsible for collecting larger pieces of ice and snow, while Nangong Wan was responsible for searching for some small pieces that might have been overlooked. They used specially made jade boxes and storage bags to collect the ice and snow fragments one by one to ensure that their spiritual power would not be lost.
As Fu Shaoping collected them, he said, "These ice and snow fragments can be used to refine 'Ice Soul Cold Jade', which is an extremely precious refining material that can greatly enhance the power of the ice attribute of magic weapons."
Nangong Wan nodded and added: "In addition, the ice and snow fragments can also be used to refine 'Ice and Snow Pills'. This kind of pill can help cultivators keep their spiritual power running in extremely cold environments, which will be of great benefit to our future expeditions."
In the process of collecting ice and snow fragments, Fu Shaoping and Nangong Wan discovered a crystal clear ice core hidden in the corpse of the ice and snow beast. This ice core is only the size of a fist, but the ice and snow power contained in it is several times more concentrated than the surrounding ice and snow fragments.
Fu Shaoping carefully took out the ice core, feeling the surging power in it, and said in a deep voice: "This is the core of the ice beast, and it is also the source of its power. The value of this ice core far exceeds the ice and snow fragments, we must keep it properly." Nangong Wan nodded, with a glimmer of joy in his eyes: "With this ice core, we can not only refine more powerful magic tools, but we may even be able to comprehend the ice beast's cultivation method from it."
After collecting the ice and snow fragments and ice cores, Fu Shaoping and Nangong Wan began to deal with the remains of the ice and snow beast. They used their spiritual power to thoroughly purify the remaining ice and snow fragments and return them to heaven and earth, so as to prevent these fragments from being used by other spirit beasts or monks and causing unnecessary trouble.
Fu Shaoping formed seals with his hands, the spiritual power in his body surged, and he whispered: "Heaven and earth return to their origin, and ice and snow turn into dust!" As his words fell, the remaining ice and snow fragments gradually turned into pure ice and snow power and dissipated into the air.
Just as Fu Shaoping and Nangong Wan finished cleaning up the remains of the giant ice and snow beast and were about to leave the top of Cangming Mountain, a melodious sound of a zither suddenly came from the sky. The sound of the zither was clear and melodious, as if it came from the sky, with a mysterious and ethereal atmosphere, which instantly attracted their attention.
Fu Shaoping's expression froze, he looked up at the sky, and said in a deep voice: "This piano sound... is extraordinary, could it be the legendary Fairy Tianyin?"
Nangong Wan also looked up, with a hint of surprise in his eyes: "Fairy Tianyin is a legendary hermit who is proficient in music and can communicate with heaven and earth and control all things through music. Why is she here?"
As the sound of the zither gradually became clearer, a beautiful figure appeared in the sky. It was a woman in white, with a beautiful face and a noble temperament, as if she was not of this world. In her hands, she held a zither, and the strings were gently plucked by her fingertips, producing pleasant sounds.
The woman slowly landed in front of Fu Shaoping and Nangong Wan, smiled slightly, and her voice was as pleasant as a clear spring: "My two Taoist friends, it's been a long time."
Fu Shaoping and Nangong Wan hurriedly saluted and said respectfully: "Junior Fu Shaoping (Nangong Wan), greets Fairy Tianyin."
Fairy Tianyin nodded slightly, her eyes swept over the two of them, with a hint of admiration in her eyes: "You were able to defeat the ice and snow beast and obtain the Thousand Mountain Snow Lotus. You are indeed extraordinary."
Fu Shaoping asked respectfully, "I wonder what advice the fairy has for you now that she has appeared?"
Fairy Tianyin smiled slightly and said softly, "I came here this time for the Thousand Mountain Snow Lotus. This lotus is a spiritual object of heaven and earth, and it will be of great benefit to my practice of music. I wonder if you two Taoist friends can give up this lotus and let me have it?"
Nangong Wan's eyes flashed with hesitation when he heard this. Qianshan Snow Lotus was equally precious to them, but Fairy Tianyin was a legendary master. If they could establish a good relationship with her, it would be of great help to their future cultivation.
Fu Shaoping pondered for a moment and said in a deep voice: "Since the fairy has spoken, I will obey. However, I have a favor to ask."
Fairy Tianyin nodded and said, "You can go ahead and tell me."
Fu Shaoping continued, "I hope the fairy can give us some pointers and help us break through the current bottleneck of cultivation."
Fairy Tianyin smiled slightly and said softly: "You were able to defeat the ice and snow beast, which shows that your strength has reached the limit of the peak of the spirit transformation. However, to break through the peak of the spirit transformation and enter a higher realm, you need not only strength, but also a perception of the great way of heaven and earth."
She paused and continued, "I practice the way of music, using music to connect heaven and earth and comprehend all things. If you can comprehend the way of music, you may be able to find an opportunity for a breakthrough."
Fu Shaoping and Nangong Wan heard this, and a glimmer of enlightenment flashed in their eyes. They knew that Fairy Tianyin's advice was extremely valuable to them.
Fairy Tianyin gently plucked the strings of the zither, and the sound of the zither rang out again. This time, the sound of the zither contained a mysterious power that seemed to be able to strike people's hearts directly, and make people fall into a mysterious state.
Fu Shaoping and Nangong Wan closed their eyes, listened carefully to the music, and felt the avenue of heaven and earth contained in it. Their minds gradually immersed in it, as if they had entered a whole new world.
Under the guidance of the piano music, Fu Shaoping and Nangong Wan's cultivation gradually improved, and the spiritual power in their bodies began to undergo subtle changes. They felt as if they had touched the bottleneck of the peak of the spirit transformation, and even had a faint feeling that they were about to break through.
The sound of Tianyin Fairy's piano gradually stopped, and Fu Shaoping and Nangong Wan slowly opened their eyes, with a glimmer of joy in their eyes. They knew that they had found an opportunity for a breakthrough.
Fu Shaoping said respectfully: "Thank you for your guidance, Fairy. I have benefited a lot from it."
Nangong Wan also nodded and said: "The fairy's piano music is indeed mysterious. I am very grateful to you."
Fairy Tianyin smiled slightly and said softly: "You are able to comprehend the way of music, which shows that you have a very high level of understanding. The future path of cultivation still needs you to explore on your own."
Fu Shaoping and Nangong Wan looked at each other and understood each other. Fu Shaoping took out the Thousand Mountain Snow Lotus and handed it to Fairy Tianyin respectfully: "Fairy, this Thousand Mountain Snow Lotus is in your hands."
Fairy Tianyin took the Thousand Mountain Snow Lotus, and a trace of satisfaction flashed in her eyes: "You are so generous, you are really extraordinary. This Thousand Mountain Snow Lotus is indeed very helpful to my practice of music. I will not take your treasure for nothing."
She paused and continued, "Here I have a volume of 'Heavenly Music Chart', which is the essence of the way of music. If you can comprehend it, you will benefit greatly."
Fu Shaoping and Nangong Wan heard this, and a hint of surprise flashed in their eyes. They knew that the Heavenly Music Score was the supreme secret book of the way of music, and if they could comprehend it, it would be of great help to their cultivation.
Fairy Tianyin handed the Tianyin score to Fu Shaoping and Nangong Wan, then gently plucked the strings of the zither and gradually disappeared into the air. Her voice echoed in the air: "My two Taoist friends, we will meet again later."
Fu Shaoping and Nangong Wan bowed respectfully and watched Fairy Tianyin leave. (End of this chapter)
