The layer of ice outside the ice sculpture became thicker and thicker. In the end, the entire ice spring quickly froze, and there was a loud crackling sound.

Ye Cheng, who was curled up outside the ice spring, suddenly looked up. He saw that the ice spring had already been sealed. He quickly threw out a ball of burning ice flame. The ice flame expanded in the air and quickly rushed toward the ice spring. However, the moment it touched the ice spring, it turned into specks of fireflies.

Ye Cheng was shocked. He hurriedly used his divine sense to explore the bottom of the spring. What made him even more shocked was that his divine sense was bounced off the surface of the spring and could not penetrate it.

。

Ye Cheng calmed down and quietly looked at the changes on the surface of the spring. He saw that it was indeed a little strange. The water on the surface of the ice spring seemed to be dropping little by little.

Realizing this, Ye Cheng sighed in relief. He thought that Li Jinzhi must have gained something from the bottom to cause such a commotion.

When the ice flame left his body just now, the surface of his body was quickly invaded by the cold air. The surface of his black scales was covered with thick frost. Ye Cheng exhaled a breath of white air and slowly curled up. It was too cold.

In the ice sculpture at the bottom of the spring, Li Jinzhi's eyes were tightly closed. His consciousness was completely immersed in his body. He saw that the demon lotus ice seed was wandering around the meridians of his body. It was unrestrained and carefree.

As long as it passed through the meridians, it would be sealed by a thick layer of ice and become an ice pillar. There was also a half-white frost on the outside of the translucent bones.

Li Jinzhi could not move. His divine sense could not expel the demon lotus. He could only watch as the meridians of his body were frozen.

"Huh?"

A small voice came from the meridians. The demon lotus quietly spun and did not move forward. "Why aren't you shouting?"

Li Jinzhi was taken aback by this sudden voice. Then, he realized that it was the demonic lotus that was speaking. It turned out that this thing had already gained sentience.

After hesitating for a while, Li Jinzhi replied, "Shout what?"

The demon lotus thought for a while and said in a strange voice, "Master Demon, don't.

Master Demon, I will not disturb your sleep in the future. "After a pause, the demon lotus seemed to be very satisfied with this shout. He concluded," It's like this. "

Li Jinzhi was speechless. What was going on with this kind of deja vu that was full of elegant butterflies?

Seeing that Li Jinzhi did not speak, Evil Lotus began to move forward again. The speed at which his meridians were freezing increased. It looked like he was going to turn this place into an ice cave.

Li Jinzhi secretly gritted his teeth, and the thunder arc hidden in his meridians suddenly shot out. The meridians that were originally frozen suddenly thawed, and the demon lotus that couldn't dodge in time was completely exposed. Flustered and exasperated, it suddenly exploded, turning into countless ice flames that scattered in all directions. The meridians in the path were quickly sealed, and finally condensed into the body of the demon lotus in the dantian.

"How dare you sneak attack your Master Demon!" Yao Lian said angrily. "Today, Master Demon will kill you!" Then, he turned his head and disappeared into Li Jinzhi's Dantian.

Li Jinzhi saw that the other party had entered his dantian, but he did not panic. Instead, he calmly started to circulate his martial arts.

All the Spirit Qi in his body was gathered in his dantian, tightly sealing the demon lotus inside. The demon core spun quickly, releasing layers of ice power, and using his blood as a guide.

The demon lotus that was originally flustered and wantonly destroying the earth gradually quieted down, as if it was sleeping quietly in his dantian. Li Jinzhi's martial arts did not stop, and the frozen meridians slowly thawed. Just as they were thawed, they were quickly frozen again. This cycle repeated, and the meridians in his body had already widened by several times.

"How dare you! How dare you sneak attack your Master Demon!" Evil Lotus violently trembled, as if wanting to escape.

"If you come with me, I will let you sleep in my dantian." Li Jinzhi threw out an olive branch.

"Master Demon won't go with you!" Evil Lotus retorted.

Li Jinzhi raised his eyebrows, not angry. "It must be very boring to sleep here alone."

“”

"It's been a long time since someone played with you, right?"

Li Jinzhi realized that this demon lotus condensed a spirit creature that was very lively. Just now, it said that it wanted to harm him, but in fact, it did not use any powerful means.

Evil Lotus twisted its body. "Hmph!"

Li Jinzhi did not say much and continued to use his martial arts, guiding the ice Spirit Qi of Evil Lotus into his bones. Now that he had the ice seed of Evil Lotus, there was hope for his Jade-coiled Ice Bones, which was slightly lacking.

Then, he felt another refreshing Spirit Qi enter his bones through his skin. Slightly stunned, Li Jinzhi realized that this Spirit Qi was completely blue, just like the spring water outside.

"Keke said it," Evil Lotus said awkwardly. "Bring Master Demon out to play."

"Mm." Li Jinzhi smiled.

"Hmph!"

Evil Lotus then looked around carefully and found something strange. "Why are your bones ice white, and your blood is not right?"

"I have the Ice Phoenix bloodline in my body."

Li Jinzhi was stunned and then asked, "Were you imprisoned here by someone, or were you formed in this spring?"

"Hmph, Master Demon was formed together with this spring water, but one day, someone dug out my nest and imprisoned me here!" Evil Lotus was so angry that it jumped up and down in his dantian.

Li Jinzhi could only comfort it. "In any case, that person moved your old nest here."

The cool spring water slowly seeped into the bones, filling up the main bones first, then countless small bones. Finally, the spring water stayed in his dantian, slowly wrapping around the broken demon core.

"Since Master Demon is going to go with you, I naturally have to bring my old nest with me!"

Li Jinzhi naturally would not reject an opportunity that was sent to his door. Feeling the ice Spirit Qi in his dantian, he felt comfortable all over, and under the rapid circulation of his martial arts, there were faint signs of a breakthrough.

Li Jinzhi suppressed the joy in his heart and guided the fragrant Spirit Qi into his bone marrow, refining it into jade-coiled ice bones, the bones of a real demon body.

Ye Cheng waited by the spring, and the coldness around him suddenly disappeared. It seemed that the ice source had disappeared, and the Spirit Qi in his body could also circulate freely.

He breathed a sigh of relief and opened his eyes, only to see that the blue spring water that was about to overflow had disappeared.

Ye Cheng was stunned. He grabbed the ground with his two claws and stretched his body to look down, only to see that the water level had dropped to the bottom of the lake. He saw Li Jinzhi sitting cross-legged, his body cold.

Ye Cheng saw that the other party was safe and relaxed. Just as he was about to fly down, he heard a white mist surging around the person at the bottom of the lake. He sensed it and could not help but be shocked. This cold air was even more penetrating than the spring water.

He heard a slight explosion, and the cold white mist suddenly rolled back into the other party's body, not revealing anything.

Li Jinzhi slowly opened his eyes and looked up to see a black flood dragon clinging to the rocks beside the spring and looking down.

He thought that the strange change just now had worried him. His heart felt warm, but his body was full of coldness. When he looked inside his body, he could see that his meridians and bones were all white. After refining the jade-coiled ice bones, he only needed to condense a demon core.

Li Jinzhi turned into a ray of light and flew back to Ye Cheng's side, only to see the other party spitting out a white breath.

"What's wrong?" Li Jinzhi was puzzled.

"You …" Ye Cheng took half a step back, wanting to say something but hesitating.

Li Jinzhi was puzzled. He looked at his own body and could not help but be stunned. He saw that his originally white skin had turned icy white, and at this time, there were wisps of white mist.

No wonder he could freeze the other party until his mouth was white.

Coincidentally, the other party also had the Extreme Yang Ice Spirit Qi. Although it was also ice, it was the Extreme Yang Spirit Qi. Moreover, it had not yet transformed, so naturally, it could not tolerate the extreme cold.

Ye Cheng saw that the other party had retracted his Spirit Qi, then twisted his body and moved to Li Jinzhi's side. He hesitated and wanted to cling to him, but in the end, he gave up. "What did you encounter under the water?"

"There was an ice seed. I've already refined it." Li Jinzhi reached out and condensed the demonic lotus ice seed in the palm of his hand.

The moment the demonic lotus came out, he shouted, "Lord Demon was not refined by you!"

"Yes, it was reclaimed." Li Jinzhi nodded. "Do you know what's in the other rooms here?"

The demonic lotus was stunned. It quietly spun in the palm of Li Jinzhi's hand, then a slender arm split out from it. "The room at that end is the medicine field, the one at that end is the Weapon Storage Pavilion, and the one at that end is …"

"What is it?" Ye Cheng looked up and asked.

"The Dharma artifact array core." The Ice White Lotus muttered, "That old man placed the Cold Morning Palace array core there."

Li Jinzhi and Ye Cheng looked at each other and saw the joy in each other's eyes.

They could get out of this ice palace if they controlled the array core.

Without hesitation, the two of them walked straight towards the array core.

"Don't think about it. That ice door can only be opened by a Yuanying cultivator. It can't be opened by just two people. Hmph," the demonic lotus said coldly. "Stop daydreaming."

Li Jinzhi restrained himself and asked, "Who is the old man you're talking about?"

"He's a demonic cultivator who has already ascended to the Upper Realm. Lord Demon doesn't care who he is. He doesn't look like a good person."

"Then the two of us have to cultivate until we reach Yuanying here?" Ye Cheng frowned and shook his long beard.

Li Jinzhi poked the small bump on the other party's head. "Do you think that if you enter the Cultivation World with your current body size, you will be skinned alive?

Will you be cramped?

Will you be blown up into a dried Flood Dragon? "

Ye Cheng was speechless. He couldn't refute.

The Ice Dragon had an ancient bloodline and was extremely rare. There were rumors that the entire body of a Flood Dragon was a treasure. Its skin could be used to make armor, its scales could be used to make weapons, and its core could be used to make medicine.

"Besides, if the mystic realm closes, the two of us might be trapped for fifty years." Li Jinzhi squatted down. "What can we do if we don't cultivate?"

Ye Cheng was startled and nodded. "Yuanying is equivalent to a seventh-grade demonic beast. It's indeed enough for you to transform."

"The level where the demonic core transforms into a phoenix is equivalent to Yuanying. Then it's decided. The Spirit Qi here is not weak." Li Jinzhi was startled. Only then did he realize that the extreme cold in the Spirit Qi here had already dissipated.

"You swallowed it."

The demonic lotus scurried and said in a somewhat complacent tone, "The extreme cold here was deliberately exposed by Lord Demon. Now that Lord Demon has decided to move, the extreme cold here is gone."

"Let's go check out the herb garden." Li Jinzhi put the demonic lotus back into his dantian and turned around.

Spirit herbs were the foundation of alchemy. The age of the spirit herb determined its value. This place had existed for countless years. No one knew the age of the spirit herbs left behind.
