"Blood Demon, are you sure we won't freeze to death if we go in here?"

Upon hearing this, Xue Ming snorted coldly.

"Don't worry about that, I've already prepared everything."

"Although these storms are powerful, if we guide them properly, we can prevent them from harming us."

After speaking, Xue Ming made a gesture, signaling them to follow.

Seeing this, Xuan Yang had no choice but to obediently follow them inside.

As soon as Yang Fan stepped into the area of ​​the ice storm ahead, he felt a chill.

He hid inside the blood-red cocoon, yet the chill still seeped in.

Fortunately, the blood cocoon provided some protection, so the chill he felt wasn't too intense.

At the same time, Xuan Yang shivered first.

"This place is so cold. Blood Demon, what do you think we should do next?"

"What should we do next? It's simple, just move forward."

After speaking, Xue Ming pointed ahead, signaling Xuan Yang to follow.

Immediately afterwards, he sped up and rushed forward.

The surrounding whirlwinds kept blowing, and the closest whirlwinds were not particularly tall.

After it blew towards them, it was immediately scattered by Xuan Yang.

After Xuan Yang dispersed the attack, he raised his hand with a grim expression.

A thick layer of ice crystals had formed on his hands.

"That won't do. Even this small whirlwind can freeze my hands. It would be even more troublesome if I went into a big whirlwind."

Upon hearing this, Xue Ming shook his head.

"Don't worry, I have a way."

"Alright, enough with the nonsense. Just follow me, and I'll make sure you get there safely."

Seeing that Xue Ming had gone this far, Xuan Yang had no choice.

He snorted coldly and continued to follow behind Xue Ming, hurrying forward.

Although he still had some doubts about Xue Ming's words, Xuan Yang had no choice but to believe him at this moment.

As they continued on their way, Xuan Yang carefully surveyed his surroundings.

After a while, an extremely large whirlwind began to approach them.

Even from dozens of feet away, Xuan Yang could feel the icy chill emanating from it.

"How are we going to avoid this thing? If we crash into it head-on, we're probably doomed."

Xuan Yang murmured to himself.

Just then, Xue Ming suddenly pulled out several array flags and threw them to the ground.

"What are you doing?"

Xuan Yang looked at Xue Ming, puzzled.

Then Xue Ming smiled slightly.

"You wouldn't know this, these are battle flags I prepared in advance."

"I've been through this before, and someone demonstrated it to me. If you set up this formation, you can get through safely."

Then he looked ahead.

"The several huge whirlwinds here are distributed according to the eight directions."

He pointed forward, chanting "Xiu Sheng Shang Du Jing Si Jing Kai".

"Don't be fooled by how dangerous cyclones are; every cyclone is different."

After setting up the formation on the ground, he sat cross-legged inside.

He took out a Bagua compass and began to examine the surrounding directions.

After a while, he pointed in a direction.

"Look, there's no problem going that way."

He then immediately put away the battle flags and led Yang Fan and Xuan Yang forward.

Although Xuan Yang was skeptical, seeing Xue Ming's determination, he followed him.

I had only taken a few steps forward when a whirlwind suddenly blew in from the side.

"Blood Darkness, is this the direction you're looking at?"

Upon hearing this, Xue Ming waved his hands repeatedly.

"Just follow me."

Immediately afterward, Xue Ming not only didn't stop, but instead charged towards the whirlwind.

Just as Xue Ming approached Feng Xuan, Feng Xuan suddenly dissipated on its own.

The ice crystals inside also fell to the ground layer by layer.

"How is this possible?"

Xuan Yang found it hard to believe.

"Xue Ming, you've cultivated to this level now, you can easily shake off the whirlwind here."

Hearing this, Xue Ming rolled his eyes speechlessly.

"Are you an idiot? If I had that kind of ability, would I still be here?"

Hearing this, Xuan Yang also felt it was somewhat unlikely.

"But this shouldn't be happening. How did you manage to do that?"

Upon hearing this, Xue Ming chuckled.

"You don't need to worry about that. Anyway, I know how to get out of here."

Then, Xue Ming led Xuan Yang and Yang Fan forward.

He kept changing direction, sometimes heading east, sometimes west.

Although his gait was extremely strange, not a single whirlwind managed to reach him along the way.

Seeing that Xue Ming could actually avoid these whirlwinds, Yang Fan and Xuan Yang were both extremely shocked.

Xuan Yang nodded repeatedly at this moment.

"You old codger, you've been here before, so you really know the way."

Hearing this, Xue Ming snorted coldly.

"To be honest, if we were at our peak, we could easily break through these whirlwinds."

"But the icy chill of the whirlwind has become increasingly intense over the years, and our cultivation is not as strong as before, so we can only use this method."

While talking about Xue Ming, he carefully examined the direction using a compass.

After a while, he finally led the two through the thick whirlwind with the help of his compass.

After leaving the whirlwind, Xue Ming immediately let out a long breath.

"Finally out."

The hardships along the way made Xue Ming feel somewhat uncomfortable.

Seeing this, Xuan Yang nodded repeatedly.

"Blood Darkness, you old bastard, you're really exceeding my expectations more and more."

Hearing Xuan Yang say this, Xue Ming snorted coldly.

"Alright, now that the storm has passed, we just need to get across the ice field as quickly as possible."

Upon hearing that they could soon cross the ice field, Xuan Yang's expression immediately relaxed considerably.

He nodded repeatedly.

"That's better."

Upon hearing this, Xue Ming couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"What, even you, Xuan Yang, have moments of fear?"

Upon hearing this, Xuan Yang chuckled awkwardly.

"There's no other way. I've been through the Fire Plains before, so I really know nothing about this Ice Plains. That's when I have to rely on you."

Xuan Yang understood that this mission depended on Xue Ming, so he was much more polite to Xue Ming.

Seeing this, Xue Ming didn't say anything more hurtful.

He dutifully guided the two of them forward.

The group continued their journey at a faster pace, and a day later they finally crossed the ice field successfully.

After leaving the icy plains, looking at the faint barrier in front of him, Xue Ming smiled slightly.

"Alright, once we pass through the barrier, we can enter the second level of the entire secret realm."

"I wonder what treasures we'll be able to get this time."

Upon hearing this, Xuan Yang, who was standing to the side, was also extremely excited.

"Yes, the Xuanyuan Sect's treasure pavilion is on the second floor."

"Although it's just a treasure vault in the trial grounds, it still contains quite a few precious weapons."

"We didn't get many good things before, so this time we should at least get a few magic weapons, and maybe even some spiritual treasures."

As Xuan Yang spoke, he rubbed his hands together excitedly.

"Lingbao?"

Upon hearing this, Xue Ming sneered.

"Are you crazy? How could you possibly get your hands on a magical treasure?"
