As soon as the ice needle appeared, Li Jinzhi's hand movements suddenly changed. The sharp ice needle trembled in the void, and mixed with a strong wind, it shot towards the woman surnamed Chen at an extremely fast speed. In the blink of an eye, it pierced through the void and directly pounced on the woman's back.

The two people who were walking forward felt the fluctuations of spiritual Qi as soon as the ice needles appeared. Before they could turn around, they had already put on a thick layer of spiritual Qi armor. However, the woman was still a step too late. After all, the ice needles pierced through the air and were very close to where she was.

As soon as the layer of light yellow spirit qi armor condensed, several ice needles had already pierced her back.

As soon as the ice needle pierced the other party's body, Li Jinzhi quickly formed another seal. The ice needle that was originally stuck in the other party's flesh suddenly exploded, causing blood to splatter everywhere. The ice shards that exploded quickly turned into ice flames, trapping the woman surnamed Chen within.

Icy Qi wantonly spread and the woman in the ice flames gradually froze. Her face and body were covered in frost and finally, she turned into specks of Ice Crystals and dissipated in the air.

All of this happened in the span of a few breaths. The woman didn't even have time to scream and the male cultivator beside her didn't even have time to react before she disappeared.

"Fellow Daoist Chen!"

The male cultivator quickly reacted and took out a tortoiseshell shield from his storage pouch. As soon as the shield appeared, it grew in size and blocked the woman's body. After doing all this, the male cultivator was still very vigilant. He took out a light pearl from his storage pouch and began to look around.

Everything just happened too quickly. He didn't even have time to analyze the position of the person who attacked him before Fellow Daoist Chen died.

However, those ice needles were clearly aimed at Fellow Daoist Chen. Although he wasn't afraid of these strange ice needles, he definitely wouldn't have felt good if he had been hit.

The aura that was revealed from the ice needles was a Yuanying cultivator.

At the very least, it was a cultivator at the peak of the early stage of the Yuanying Realm or a demon cultivator who was about to transform.

However, the surroundings were empty. He released his spiritual sense and scanned the earth walls inch by inch, probing the surroundings bit by bit, but found nothing. There were no people or demon insects hiding around.

At the very least, there was no one here whose cultivation was lower than his.

Just as he was vigilant of his surroundings, a fierce red whip lashed out at his head. As the tongue of flame flickered, the air was frozen and distorted.

As soon as the Flame Whip appeared, the male cultivator was stunned and muttered to himself, "So there really is a Yang Ice Spirit Root in this world!" Although he was surprised, the movements of his hands didn't slow down in the slightest.

A small crimson ruler slowly flew out from his storage bag. He slowly recited a spell, and a silver flame gradually flashed on the surface of the small ruler. The flame quickly spread in all directions.

The man held the ferule with a single hand and swung it towards the crimson red whip. Crack!

With a loud bang, the scarlet whip turned into sparks and dissipated.

Li Jinzhi, who was hiding in the void, was slightly stunned when he saw this scene. He frowned and said, "A supreme-grade magic weapon!"

Magic weapons were also divided into ranks. Low-grade magic weapons were the worst, mid-grade magic weapons were slightly better, and upper-grade magic weapons were second only to supreme-grade magic weapons. Naturally, there were better magic weapons above supreme-grade magic weapons. However, even mid-grade magic weapons were extremely rare in the Cultivation World, let alone upper-grade and supreme-grade magic weapons.

Every innate skill required a lot of time to study and experiment if one wanted to use it flexibly. One also needed to spend a lot of money to support one's research and trials.

However, cultivators had spirit stones but didn't use them on cultivation. If they had time, how could they be willing to waste it?

Therefore, except for those cultivators who didn't have the heart to cultivate and didn't have the heart to improve, who would do that? Even if there were some supreme-grade magic weapon refinement masters, they were all monopolized by the big clans and sects. Therefore, supreme-grade magic weapons had become priceless.

Therefore, most of the magic weapons that appeared in fights of magical powers between cultivators were mid-grade magic weapons. High-grade cultivators who were shy of money directly used skills and cultivation methods to fight. Of course, there were also rich high-level cultivators who could obtain very good magic weapons to defeat their enemies.

The magic weapons that Li Jinzhi and Ye Cheng found in the ice palace were neither upper-grade nor supreme-grade magic weapons. They were ancient magic weapons.

The Cultivation World had been evolving since ancient times. After tens of thousands of years, the cultivation methods of these magic weapons had been lost and changed. There were thousands of variations.

Ancient magic weapons weren't necessarily much stronger than modern magic weapons, but the cultivation methods had long been lost.

Therefore, when Li Jinzhi saw that the small ruler that the other party took out was actually a supreme-grade magic weapon, he naturally became slightly distracted.

Ye Yu's attack had failed, and he had also noticed Li Jinzhi's slight stupefaction. Naturally, he felt a little embarrassed. He, who had wholeheartedly wanted to show off in front of Li Jinzhi, gritted his teeth, and with a flick of his tail, he sent out a pitch-black Spirit Qi Dragon.

As soon as the small dragon appeared, the surrounding air became dark and distorted due to the heat. It swung its tail and was about to fly out, but its tail was pinched by a hand.

The black Little Dragon swung its tail shyly, but it didn't manage to get rid of the troublesome hand. It turned around angrily, only to see Ye Cheng staring at its tail enviously.

Li Jinzhi frowned and pulled the small black dragon back, throwing it onto Ye Cheng's claws. "You're dizzy, so rest well. If you release your original body, it might attract danger. Don't move, I'll do it."

After saying that, he was about to cast a spell, but Ye Cheng hooked his robe with his claws. "I know a magic weapon that can deal with him!"

Li Jinzhi paused, and the Ice Crystals that had just condensed suddenly scattered. "What?"

Ye Cheng rummaged through the ring on his claw for a while, then took out a broken porcelain bowl. "This."

"…" Li Jinzhi glanced at the broken bowl and then at the Silver Flame Ferule in the man's hand. His face was full of disbelief as he said, "I haven't seen the Magic Weapon Encyclopedia. Don't lie to me."

Ye Cheng swung his tail, pointed the broken bowl at the man outside, and slowly chanted a spell.

Li Jinzhi noticed that the broken bowl's mouth was slowly condensing a small ball of wind. Although the ball of wind was very powerful, even a person with a cultivation level like Li Jinzhi's could feel his spirit energy rapidly depleting when touched by the ball of wind at the mouth of the bowl.

This broken bowl could actually forcibly deprive people of their spirit energy!

Ye Cheng stared intently at the man who was wrapped in protective spirit energy. He chanted the spell even faster, and the ball of wind kept increasing in number. The broken bowl could no longer contain so many balls of wind.

Li Jinzhi narrowed his eyes slightly in the ball of wind. He subconsciously wanted to block it, but the ball of wind instantly left the void and pounced directly on the other party's two magic weapons.

The man seemed to be very confident in his magic weapons. He didn't care about the few small balls of wind that came out of nowhere. He stretched out his hand and flicked a dark red spell. After seeing the man's spirit energy envelop the ball of wind, he ignored it.

However, his eyes were fixed on the position where the ball of wind appeared.

After what happened just now, he could roughly guess that someone had used a secret technique to hide here. The other party had chosen to kill Fellow Daoist Chen directly, not because of a personal grudge, but because the other party's ability was weak. It was better to get rid of one than to fight two people at once.

A look of contempt flashed across the man's face. He probably knew who the person hiding was.

Since he knew that the two people's cultivation was not as good as his, he was relieved. An enemy who he didn't know was always more terrifying than an enemy who he knew.

The man, who was still vigilant in the void, didn't realize that the ball of wind he casually dismissed just now had swallowed up his two spells. Now it was attached to the tortoiseshell shield and crazily devouring it.

In just the blink of an eye, the light on the shield had weakened significantly.

The man had already thrown two spells toward the open space, but obviously he didn't get anything. Those spells seemed to really spread out from the air.

Although the man had a top-grade magic weapon in hand, it was useless if he couldn't find the person. After all, the enemy was in the dark, and he was in the light. He couldn't just sit and wait for death.

The man held the ferule with one hand and reached out to touch the tortoiseshell above his head. He was about to escape quickly, but his body suddenly stiffened.

The spirit energy on the tortoiseshell was wrong!

This was a high-grade magic weapon. Although its power was not as good as that of the top-grade magic weapon, the spirit energy it contained was naturally extremely rich.

But at this time!

The spirit on this tortoiseshell shield was only at the level of an intermediate-grade magic weapon.

The man's face was stunned for a moment. He no longer had the intention to stay after being vigilant. He rolled up the spirit around his body and flew away quickly.

Ye Cheng, who was in the void, dragged the bowl with his claws. He stared at the man who was about to turn with gloomy eyes, and he softly spat out a word.

Immediately, Li Jinzhi saw a scene that he would never forget. He saw that the broken bowl emitted a dark light curtain. The light flickered, and the tortoiseshell shield suspended above the man's head trembled slightly. It flew from the top of his head and fell straight into Li Jinzhi's hand.

Before he had time to ask, he saw that the ferule that was originally tightly held in the man's hand also emitted a burst of silver flame uncontrollably. The scorching aura spread out.

The man was startled by the change that happened in the blink of an eye. The ferule in his hand moved quickly as if it was about to fly out of his hand.

However, the ferule's temperature was getting higher and higher. The man's hand could not help but loosen. With this, the silver ferule quickly flew out, broke through the air in front of the man, and disappeared in front of him.

Looking at the empty space, the man pulled the corners of his mouth dryly. "Two Fellow Daoists, can you come out for a chat?" His attitude was respectful, and he no longer had the attitude of wanting to kill and seize the treasure.

However, although his attitude was like this, the protective spirit energy around his body was constantly thickening. Around the palms hidden under the sleeves of his robe, strange spirit energy balls also appeared.

"You're not allowed to go out!" Ye Cheng, who was in the void, was the first to protest.

Li Jinzhi weighed the ruler in his hand and said with a smile, "If I go out, it's either peace or a big fight. I might even have to spit out the fat meat in my mouth. Do you think I will go out?" He was not a pig.

Ye Cheng nodded in relief. "Then quickly get rid of this person. We have been here for a long time."
