The Glory of the Sun and Moon in the Peerless Tang Sect

Xu Zihuang entered the cave. There seemed to be a strange power within this portal, which actually isolated the cold spring. Even the cold spring water that clung to Xu Zihuang's body and clothes was filtered out by that strange power.

He had just been soaking in the cold spring water, and suddenly felt completely refreshed.

Xu Zihuang ignored the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm and the Ice Extreme Divine Crystals. Instead, he released his spiritual power, which transformed into invisible energy and probed towards the bottom of the spring.

As he had anticipated, even with his tangible and substantial spiritual power, extending it within the depths of this icy spring was extremely difficult, as if he were mired in quagmire. Moreover, the consumption of spiritual power was astonishingly high.

Although mental energy is different from elemental energy, it is actually a manifestation of elemental energy.

When energy is condensed to a certain degree, all paths lead to the same destination. The ice-attribute energy contained in the cold spring can be described as reaching the ultimate of the ultimate. As long as his spiritual power enters it, it will be affected by the ice-attribute energy.

However, after several trials, Xu Zihuang had a better understanding of the situation. If he used the energy of his spiritual attribute soul core, he should be able to probe the bottom of his spiritual power. And using the second awakening of his gold-level main body martial soul to raise his spiritual power realm to the demigod level would be an incredibly easy matter.

This was also his original plan: to forcibly use the void abilities attached to his Golden Eye True Body to transfer the Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow here.

The problem now is that doing this is too costly. He'll also have to endure the negative effects of using his Gold-level Martial Soul for a second awakening, so he needs someone to help him.

And the right person to choose from is undoubtedly Ye Guyi.

Having encountered a ten-thousand-year-old ice cave before, the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm had largely calmed down. Noticing Xu Zihuang's actions, it instantly understood his thoughts.

"Zi Huang, you intend to use your Martial Soul True Body's abilities to take away those Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrows? However, for Soul Masters who are not of the ultimate ice attribute, touching these Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrows will require resisting that terrifying coldness. This will inevitably greatly increase your burden. Given your state after using the Gold-level Body Martial Soul's second awakening and Martial Soul True Body, it is definitely not feasible. Moreover, your storage Soul Guidance Device cannot contain these Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrows that contain rich ice attribute energy."

"Zihuang, if you do this, how are you going to take those ten-thousand-year-old Xuanbing marrow with you?"

"Tianmeng, don't worry. I have my own plans." Xu Zihuang smiled calmly. Without saying anything more, he left the cave and swam towards the well.

Outside the well.

Less than a quarter of an hour has passed since Xu Zihuang went into the water.

Although Ye Guyi had great confidence in Xu Zihuang's strength, as the saying goes, concern can cloud judgment, and the two of them had recently broken through that kind of relationship, so it was inevitable that she would feel a little anxious.

Nan Qiuqiu stood quietly to the side, as if she had been stimulated by something, remaining silent. Every now and then, she would steal a glance at Ye Guyi.

This surprised Nan Shuishui greatly. Although she had indeed scolded Nan Qiuqiu, the effect shouldn't have been this bad, right?

She knew her daughter's personality all too well.

As the three were lost in their own thoughts, a sound of water breaking rang out. Immediately afterward, a figure rose from the well and landed at its edge.

Xu Zihuang's figure appeared in the icy mist, and the heavy cold air made Nan Shuishui and her daughter Nan Qiuqiu take a few steps back.

Only Ye Guyi stepped forward with concern and asked, "Are you alright?"

Xu Zihuang shook his head, then looked at Nan Shuishui.

“Senior Nan, there is indeed a special rare metal there. However, the mining conditions are quite harsh. I'll take Sister Gu Yi in to try again.”

He had many secrets he couldn't tell Nan Shui Shui, so he could only come up with another excuse.

Of course, he would accept Nan Shuishui's favor.

"Alright, you can go ahead. Qiuqiu and I will keep watch outside for you." Judging from Yu Tianhuang's words, he had clearly made a round trip within half an hour. From the astonishingly cold aura emanating from Yu Tianhuang's body just now, he could tell that what Yu Tianhuang said was true.

Geniuses really can't be judged by conventional standards.

Nan Shuishui sighed softly, growing to like Xu Zihuang more and more the more she looked at him.

"Pity."

If it weren't for Ye Guyi's existence, she would have been willing to matchmake her daughter with Yu Tianhuang, even if it meant paying him.

Looking at her daughter, she felt increasingly frustrated. They were both human, yet the difference between them was so vast.

But she was just thinking about it casually. What mother would dislike her own daughter? It was just a feeling of disappointment and frustration at her daughter's lack of ambition.

After ten days of getting to know each other, Xu Zihuang and Ye Guyi had already developed an unparalleled tacit understanding.

Ye Guyi understood and went to the well with Xu Zihuang, preparing to enter the cold spring together. But Nan Qiuqiu, who had just realized what was happening, screamed and stopped them.

"and many more!"

Nan Qiuqiu's almond-shaped eyes widened as she questioned Xu Zihuang, "Are you crazy?! Don't you know Sister Ye is pregnant?!"

"What did you say?"

Nan Qiuqiu's words completely baffled Xu Zihuang, who looked at Ye Guyi beside him in disbelief.

"I was just teasing her," Ye Guyi whispered in Xu Zihuang's ear, her face flushed. Her fondness for Nan Qiuqiu, this kind-hearted and straightforward young girl, grew even stronger.

She said to Nan Qiuqiu somewhat apologetically, "I'm sorry, Qiuqiu. I was just joking with you."

Now it was Nan Qiuqiu's turn to stand there dumbfounded, watching Xu Zihuang and Ye Guyi enter the cold spring, still unable to come back to her senses.

Nan Shuishui shook her head helplessly.

How could my daughter be so foolish?

However, it was precisely Nan Qiuqiu's naiveté that allowed her to form a good relationship with Ye Guyi in such a short time. Nan Shuishui was quite pleased with this outcome.

This might just be a case of fools having good luck.

Chapter 333 The Undead Demiplane and Taking Away the Myriad-Year-Old Profound Ice Marrow

Xu Zihuang and Ye Guyi held hands and entered the cold spring again.

As soon as they entered the water, the remains left by the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm expanded and transformed into a golden light shield that protected them.

The proud voice of Tianmeng Ice Silkworm rang in their ears.

"Zihuang, I've now activated the power contained within the remains, which will at least ensure that you won't be bothered by the intense cold of the icy spring for a quarter of an hour. How about that? I'm not entirely useless after all."

"Then why didn't you do this before?" Xu Zihuang was speechless, but after thinking about it, he guessed what Tianmeng Ice Silkworm was thinking.

Tianmeng Ice Silkworm said guiltily, "You didn't need it just now either."

This is just one of the reasons.

The reason Tianmeng Ice Silkworm did this was primarily to gain favor with Ye Guyi. The fact that Xu Zihuang and Ye Guyi had crossed that line in their relationship made it feel threatened.

It's predictable that Ye Guyi holds a high position in Xu Zihuang's heart; it's always a good idea to cultivate a good relationship with Ye Guyi.

Another reason is that she wants to show off, not just in front of Xu Zihuang and Ye Guyi, but also to Electrolux. Don't underestimate the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm just because its strength isn't great; it's extremely concerned with its image. It often compares itself to Electrolux in its mind.

What it didn't know was that Electrolux had recently used his divine power to transfer the undead demiplane to Ye Guyi, and he wouldn't wake up for at least several years.

He showed off his loneliness.

This undead demiplane is the most important part of Xu Zihuang's plan.

Afterwards, he could have Ye Guyi move those ten-thousand-year-old Xuanbing marrows to that undead demiplane.

Ye Guyi also saw through Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's little schemes and couldn't help but smile.

"Thank you, Tianmeng."

"Hehe, no need to be polite." Tianmeng Ice Silkworm chuckled and immediately seized the opportunity.

"Bone Robe, although I'm not good at fighting, no one is better than me in other areas. Back when Zihuang went to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, it was thanks to your abilities that he was able to get past that layer of poisonous miasma..."

Listening to Tianmeng Bingcan's self-praise, Xu Zihuang and Ye Guyi had already arrived at the entrance of the cave.

Xu Zihuang pulled Ye Guyi through the portal and into the cave.

Ye Guyi's reaction was similar to Xu Zihuang's before; both were amazed by the strange power within the portal that isolated the water. Her long, golden hair, which had been floating in the water, instantly dried completely and draped back over her shoulders.

Gazing at the magnificent, shimmering azure-blue Ice Crystal before him, Ye Guyi was slightly lost in thought and sighed.

"What beautiful crystals. Zihuang, is this the rare ice-attribute metal you mentioned?"

"Mm." Xu Zihuang nodded.

"This crystal is called Ice Extreme Divine Crystal. If used properly, it can be used to make top-level soul tools."

Ye Guyi withdrew her gaze and looked at Xu Zihuang.

"You brought me down here, surely not for these Ice Crystals?"

“Zihuang’s target is indeed not these Ice Extreme Divine Crystals, but the Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow at the bottom of the Cold Spring,” Tianmeng Ice Silkworm took over the conversation, showing off with a smug look.

"The Extreme Ice Crystal can only exist in the Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Cave. In other words, this cold spring was a naturally formed Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Cave hundreds of thousands, or even millions of years ago. If I'm not mistaken, this Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Cave must have arrived here due to crustal changes. And where the Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Cave exists, there must also be Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow. Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow is a treasure of the same grade as the Life Gold in Zi Huang's possession."

Xu Zihuang said frankly, "Sister Lingyi, Tianmeng is right. My target is indeed those ten-thousand-year-old Xuanbing marrows. Tianmeng is a dual-attribute soul beast with both ice and spirit attributes. She once refined ten-thousand-year-old Xuanbing marrows from a ten-thousand-year-old Xuanbing cave. It was because of the power of the ten-thousand-year-old Xuanbing marrows that she was able to successfully break through to a million-year cultivation level. Tianmeng can refine the medicinal effects of those ten-thousand-year-old Xuanbing marrows and form a spiritual source to feed back to me."

Ye Guyi had absolute trust in Xu Zihuang and nodded slightly.

"Zihuang, what do you plan to have me do?"

"I plan to use the second awakening of my Gold-level Martial Soul to unleash the power of my Martial Soul True Body again and move the Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow here. After that, Sister Lingyi, you can store the Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow into the Undead Demiplane."

Ye Guyi frowned slightly. The method was feasible, but doing so would inevitably place a huge burden on Xu Zihuang's body.

"When you used your Gold-level Martial Soul for a second awakening a few months ago, you had to rest for a full half month."

"Don't worry, Sister Lingyi, I know what I'm doing. Last time, my soul was injured, and I couldn't mobilize the life force of the Golden Spirit in my second sea of ​​consciousness to nourish myself in time. Now I'm in the best condition. As long as I mobilize the life force of the Golden Spirit in time to replenish the consumed life force, the side effects of using the second awakening of the Golden-level main body martial soul will be much smaller."

"Alright then." Ye Guyi finally gave in, but her eyes were filled with frustration.

If she were strong enough, she wouldn't have made Xu Zihuang force himself to do things every time.

Xu Zihuang stepped forward with a gentle smile and lightly touched Ye Guyi's lips, which softened Ye Guyi's expression considerably.

Having just been fed a mouthful of dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing a public display of affection), Tianmeng Bingcan was so envious that her whole body contorted in a grimace. Her plump body writhed wildly within Xu Zihuang's sea of ​​consciousness.

"Bingbing—, my Bingbing—, when can I do this with Bingbing too! Ah! Ah!"

This wasn't the first time Tianmeng Ice Silkworm had felt this kind of envy.

From Ning Tian at the beginning, to Ju Zi later, and now Ye Guyi, compared to Xu Zihuang, it lost so thoroughly. It was completely routed and its defenses crumbled.

Although the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm didn't make a sound, a portion of its spiritual essence had long since merged with Xu Zihuang's, allowing Xu Zihuang to clearly sense the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm's inner thoughts—similar to mind reading.

"Alright, stop acting crazy here."

After saying this, Xu Zihuang's aura began to rise rapidly. A phantom golden vertical eye appeared behind him, then solidified, and then reappeared the characteristics of when he used his Gold-level Body Martial Soul for its second awakening.

The incredibly solid golden vertical eye turned into a deep black iron color, then shifted to bronze and silver, and finally became an incomparably dazzling gold.

Each time the color of Xu Zihuang's vertical eye changed, his aura seemed to cross a new boundary. His terrifying presence even affected Ye Guyi.

A golden light flashed, and six spirit rings—five black and one red—appeared almost simultaneously beside Xu Zihuang. They instantly converged, transforming into a blood-red spirit ring with three strange golden patterns, radiating brilliant light.

Xu Zihuang's first three spirit rings were all 40,000 years old, while his fourth and fifth spirit rings were 50,000 years old. In addition, his sixth spirit ring, the pure mental type Evil Eye Tyrant, was 100,000 years old. The new spirit ring formed by the fusion of the six spirit rings had an age of over 300,000 years.

Those three golden lines are the best proof.
