Enduring humiliation for three years, seizing the elixir, the treasure, and the holy maiden.

The spiritual energy surged forth, but was blocked by the restrictions at the palace gate.

The two of them finally breathed a sigh of relief.

This place is much older than the underground world of Xingluo.

"Anyway, we're safe now."

Bai Luwei finished tying her hair up, and with a jingle from the little bell on her ankle, she walked towards Su Chen.

This woman is good in this respect; she doesn't hold grudges.

"There's something over there, let's go take a look."

With a single step, her jade-like feet floated towards the center of the main hall.

Su Chen then followed.

The central government is like an altar, upon which rests a cauldron and a sword.

A layer of white frost had formed on the surface of the cauldron, and even from three feet away, one could feel the chill that seemed to seep into one's bones.

Bai Luwei's breathing suddenly became more rapid.

Su Chen frowned. Judging from her expression, he knew that the cauldron seemed to be extraordinary.

Su Chen didn't really have much of a concept of these treasures.

He considered his own seal to be a fine treasure.

Before, I was in Qingzhou, a very barren place.

It's rare for a cultivator to produce any extraordinary magical treasures.

However, Su Chen noticed the sword.

It doesn't even have a sharpened edge, but it's extremely exquisite, and you could say that this sword has a certain pride about it.

"The Immaculate Sword Embryo".

Su Chen saw these words carved under the stone platform.

However, there were no inscriptions on the bottom of the small tripod.

This is enough to show that this sword should be the most valuable item in this hall.

I hesitated for a moment, wondering which one to choose.

Logically speaking, the sword would be better, but the woman's expression was enough to show that the cauldron was extraordinary.

I hesitated...

More importantly, both of these treasures are shrouded in a protective barrier.

"Since we're already here..."

"White Fairy, you choose first."

Su Chen was quite generous, raising his hand to point at the stone platform.

Since I don't know how to choose, I might as well do this woman a favor.

Bai Luwei was stunned for a moment.

She thought that this man, who had been acting so arrogantly all the way, would have to compete with her for it.

"Are you really letting me choose first?"

Bai Luwei asked a question.

"Nonsense, would I lie to you?"

"Judging from your martial arts skills, they're ice-based. This cauldron must have been made just for you."

Su Chen raised an eyebrow.

Su Chen guessed that she could also choose that cauldron, since this woman's cultivation technique was ice-attribute.

Bai Luwei didn't stand on ceremony anymore.

This journey of thousands of miles to the ruins of the star remains was all for the sake of ice-related objects.

The ice cauldron before us faintly exudes the power of laws.

The Laws of Ice.

If one could comprehend even a fraction of its essence, it would be more than just a magical artifact.

That will be the opportunity for me to explore the realm of Void Refinement in the future.

"I'll take this cauldron."

As soon as Bai Luwei's fingertips extended, they were jolted numb by the restriction and withdrew.

Su Chen simply unleashed his seal and smashed it down, but the restriction remained completely unmoved.

"Strange."

Su Chen frowned.

This seal could withstand even nine heavenly tribulations, so how could it not break through an ancient restriction?

"This restriction seems to require both yin and yang spiritual energy to break!"

Bai Luwei frowned.

The two exchanged a glance and decided to act together.

Both masculine and yin spiritual energy were poured in at the same time.

A ripple appeared on the barrier.

"I see."

"This restriction recognizes the spiritual power of the fusion of Yin and Yang."

"My energy is pure Yang, and yours is extreme Yin, but our spiritual energies have not merged."

Su Chen stared at the restriction for a long time.

However, there are very few cultivators in the world who possess both Yin and Yang spiritual powers.

Bai Luwei's expression changed slightly.

Yin and Yang in harmony.

In the cultivation world, there is only one way to briefly allow the Yin and Yang spiritual energies to intersect.

She had naturally thought of that.

However, as a holy maiden of the Snow Abyss Palace, she simply couldn't bring herself to say those words.

Su Chen made no attempt to hide anything.

"There is a way."

"After a brief period of dual cultivation, my pure yang spiritual energy entered your body and merged with your yin and cold spiritual energy."

"We'll cultivate together while channeling spiritual energy into this restriction. Whether it works or not, we'll find out by trying."

The hall was very quiet.

Bai Luwei lowered her head, and the knuckles of the hand that was gripping the hem of her skirt were turning white.

The opportunity to achieve immortality is right before our eyes.

a step far.

But to cultivate dual cultivation with this man...

But then, that scene from just moments ago popped into my head again, at an inopportune time.

That thick, strong arm, gripping me tightly and refusing to let go.

That suffocating feeling of being forcibly held down and unable to move.

It's strange, but the feeling was clearly humiliating.

Bai Luwei's eyelashes trembled.

She wasn't some naive, innocent girl.

Having spent so many years in Xueyuan Palace, all the senior and junior brothers who fawned over her wished they could give her their hearts.

She found it utterly repulsive.

Too soft.

It's so boring.

On the contrary, it's someone like Su Chen, domineering and unreasonable, who doesn't take her saintly status seriously at all...

That's it.

The more Bai Luwei thought about it, the hotter her face became.

But she nodded, unable to let go of her last bit of pride.

If it's difficult for you, then forget it.

Su Chen was quite decisive; he flicked his sleeve, turned around, and walked towards the sword.

"I'll go try out that flawless sword embryo."

"You can figure out that ice cauldron yourself."

This time, Bai Luwei was truly panicked.

"you..."

She bit her lower lip, her voice as low as a mosquito's buzz.

"...Then please help me."

"I do."

Su Chen stopped in his tracks.

He turned around and looked at her with a half-smile.

What are you thinking?

"This isn't something you can decide whether you want to or not."

"It's me who's helping you."

"Since I'm helping you, shouldn't you beg me?"

As soon as Su Chen finished speaking, Bai Luwei's face turned bright red, reaching her ears.

lecher.

What a complete lecher!

She, the dignified Goddess of Xuanbing, has never bowed her head to anyone.

But the ice cauldron sat right there on the stone platform in front of her, its icy blue light flashing and captivating her soul.

Bai Luwei's chest heaved several times.

"Please...cultivate with me."

After holding it in for a long time, he finally managed to squeeze out a sentence through gritted teeth.

Su Chen nodded in satisfaction.

"That's right."

A wisp of pure yang spiritual energy, following the bridge of dual cultivation, forcefully penetrated Bai Luwei's body.

...
