Chapter 573 Ice Spirit Cold Spring Lake? The Ultimate Ice?

After walking for half an hour, Jing Chen looked back and realized he had only taken fifteen steps into the mountain range. Only after taking this fifteenth step did he officially enter the mountain range. Jing Chen could only smile helplessly at this.

"Little fellow, I really don't know whether having such a mountain range is a good thing or a bad thing." The old herbalist floated out quietly, looked at the rare medicinal herbs covering the mountains and fields, and shook his head with a wry smile.

The herbalist floated out, and Jing Chen sighed helplessly, saying, "Who knows? However, with so many rare medicinal herbs, it's more than enough even for practice."

"Damn! Kid, are you serious? You're using these rare medicinal herbs for practice?" Hearing Jing Chen's words, the old herb master exclaimed in shock. While it was true that they had so many rare herbs, it was impossible to know when they would ever run out. But if they were used for practice, even the entire mountain range wouldn't be enough!

"Master Yao, did you misunderstand what I meant by practicing?" Jing Chen shook his head helplessly and said, "What I meant was, once I can refine high-level pills, I won't have to worry about materials. However, doing my best is always the best. With so many medicinal herbs, if I used them to cultivate my own power, I could probably cultivate a powerful force that stands tall throughout the entire Dou Qi Continent."

The old doctor agreed with this. With so many medicinal herbs, cultivating several Dou Ling and Dou Wang in a short period of time shouldn't be a big problem.

The two fell silent and continued to cautiously and slowly advance into the mountains.

In just half an hour, Jing Chen had lost count of how many rare medicinal herbs he had seen. Some he recognized, some he didn't, and some even the old herbalist had rarely seen before. This small world had indeed given Jing Chen a huge surprise.

It took Jing Chen nearly five hours to reach the middle of the mountain range. This five-hour timeframe was only achieved by slightly increasing his pace.

In the middle of the mountain range, they found a relatively spacious spot. Although it was spacious, it was only because Jing Chen had moved a few precious medicinal herbs to make room for them. Even so, there was only enough room for one person to stand.

Jing Chen sat cross-legged, with Yao Lao floating beside him, constantly looking around. Jing Chen closed his eyes, and his internal fighting spirit slowly began to circulate.

Surrounded by this sea of ​​medicinal herbs, even the old alchemist couldn't contain his excitement. Indeed, no matter the time, medicinal herbs are always the greatest temptation for alchemists. And now, the greatest temptation for alchemists was that Jing Chen possessed medicinal herbs from an entire mountain range nearly 100,000 meters high.

After resting for a while, Jing Chen slowly opened his eyes and saw that the old apothecary was still wandering among the herbs. Standing up, Jing Chen said to the old apothecary, "Old apothecary, if you see any herbs that you like or that you can use, just let me know, and you can take them with you."

"Tsk tsk, after looking around just now, I found the materials for at least ten Blood Lotus Pills. And these ten materials were obtained after only one failed attempt. If I were to refine them, I could probably make twenty pills," the old medicine master exclaimed.

"Sigh," Jing Chen looked up at the towering mountains and said to Yao Lao, "Yao Lao, shall we continue forward? Let's see what other surprises these mountains hold for us?"

"Hehe, we can go a little further in," said the old apothecary.

Jing Chen nodded and continued deeper into the mountains, or more precisely, towards the main mountain of the mountains.

It's called the main mountain of the mountain range, but it's just going deeper into the mountain range, and the goal is just to reach those continuous mountains.

As dusk approached, Jing Chen finally reached the foot of the mountain. He looked up at the towering peaks that seemed to pierce the clouds, wiped the sweat from his brow, and sighed, "Damn, we're finally here."

"I never imagined that what would normally be a ten-minute walk to the foot of the mountain would take a whole day here," Yao Lao exclaimed.

Shaking his head helplessly, Jing Chen said with a wry smile, "There's nothing we can do. With so many precious medicinal herbs, it would be heartbreaking to destroy even one."

"Hehe, that's the truth," said the old doctor.

As soon as the old apothecary finished speaking, a faint, almost imperceptible blue light flashed by. Jing Chen raised an eyebrow and looked in the direction the blue light had passed. But he saw nothing.

At this moment, the old apothecary also floated over, looking in the direction Jing Chen was looking, and asked, "Little guy, what did you see?"

"Master Yao, there was a very faint blue light flash by just now, but I couldn't pinpoint its exact location," Jing Chen said, his brows furrowing slightly.

"That area seems to be a cold region, right?" the old apothecary asked hesitantly.

Jing Chen remained silent for a moment, then his body suddenly rose, ascending about twenty meters. Looking at the cold area, his eyes sharpened, and he said, "No matter what's over there, since such a strange phenomenon has occurred, we naturally have to go and take a look."

The old apothecary nodded and floated into the ring. Jing Chen, on the other hand, flew towards the cold land.

Upon entering the cold land, Jing Chen did not feel any coldness, seemingly because the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire within his body dispelled the cold.

After flying for about half a minute, a chill suddenly crept into Jing Chen's body. Jing Chen, who was in flight, suddenly shuddered, and his flying body abruptly stopped.

"Did you find it?" Jing Chen looked around and muttered softly.

"What's wrong?" the old doctor asked.

"I don't know. Just now, a wisp of cold air suddenly entered my body. With the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame, it's impossible for any cold air to enter my body, unless, this wisp of cold air is not ordinary cold air," Jing Chen said with a frown.

"Yes, indeed. Some rare and precious materials do exhibit this peculiar phenomenon. Let's go down and search carefully; perhaps we can find the source of the cold energy."

Jing Chen frowned and nodded. Just as he was about to fall, his body suddenly stopped, and his gaze was fixed on one direction.

That direction led to a towering, snow-capped peak in the frigid land, its summit shrouded in white. About thirty meters above the ground, atop the peak, lay a cave. The cave's exterior appeared unremarkable, but when Jing Chen penetrated it with his spiritual energy, he felt as if his very soul had been frozen. This feeling... Jing Chen felt a strange sense of déjà vu!

This feeling is like the icy, cold spring!

Without the slightest hesitation, Jing Chen flew directly towards the cave. His feet landed gently, and he looked at the enormous cave. The cave walls were inlaid with moonstones. The moonstones were spaced irregularly, but they appeared to have been placed there intentionally.

With a slight frown, he slowly walked inside. The moonstone on the mountain wall extended all the way into the cave, and even with the faint light of the moonstone, Jing Chen still couldn't see the end of the cave.

The deeper they went into the cave, the more acute the bone-chilling cold became. With a slight thought, azure flames suddenly erupted from within Jing Chen's body, enveloping him entirely. Once the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame enveloped him, the chill instantly dissipated, completely shutting him out.

After walking for a full ten minutes, Jing Chen finally reached the end of the cave. As soon as he stepped out, a blinding blue light erupted. Jing Chen involuntarily closed his eyes, then opened them again a moment later. The scene before him completely shocked him.

"Holy crap! What the hell is this?!" Upon seeing the scene before him, Jing Chen couldn't help but swear.

Upon hearing Jing Chen's question, the old apothecary also floated out gracefully. The more elegant he was when he came out, the more bewildered he was by the scene before him.

It's no wonder Jing Chen was shocked, because the entire cave was a natural cave formed entirely of ice. In the middle of the cave was a giant lake with a radius of two to three hundred meters.

"This is... the ultimate ice? And this is... the Ice Spirit Cold Spring!?" Yao Lao exclaimed in surprise.

Jing Chen used his mental power to probe the lake, finding it to be over 500 meters deep. It was nearly 700 meters in diameter and almost 600 meters deep. But that wasn't the key point. The key point was that the lake wasn't filled with water; it was brimming with icy, cold spring water!
