Chapter 91 Ten Thousand Years of Mysterious Ice Essence (please subscribe for monthly tickets)
After leaving the Killing City, Gu Yi did not choose to return to Tiandou City, but continued to head north.
In less than half a day, Gu Yi and the others entered the frozen forest at the northern end of the Tiandou Empire.
The environment here has turned into a world of ice and snow, with white snow everywhere.
This place is less than five hundred miles away from the Far North. At Gu Yi's speed, he can fly to the Far North in less than an hour or two.
Speaking of which, Guyi came through the frozen forest a year ago and went deep into the far north.
That experience allowed Gu Yi to successfully hunt the fourth soul ring and obtain the soul skill 'Blood Explosion'.
The reason why Gu Yi came to the northern end of the Tiandou Empire again was not to hunt soul beasts and obtain soul rings.
Both he and Qing Lin are not at the level to absorb soul rings.
Gu Yi came here for a top-notch heavenly material and earthly treasure called ‘Wanzai Xuanbing Marrow’! !
The quality of Wanzai Xuan Ice Marrow is not much worse than the fairy grass of the Ice and Fire Eyes, and the gold of living beings controlled by the Silver Dragon King under the Star Dou Forest.
On the entire Douluo Planet, only two soul beasts with a million-year cultivation have been born in countless years.
One is the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King in the depths of the sea. It is powerful and is no weaker than a level 99 Ultimate Douluo.
The other one is the ‘Tianmeng Ice Silkworm’ who was born in the far north.
Compared to the former, Tianmeng Bingsukong has a million-year cultivation, but he doesn't know how to use it. His combat power is barely stronger than some ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts.
This also led to the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm being captured by several ferocious beasts when passing through the Star Dou Forest, and turned into a large power bank, and its cultivation was sucked by the ferocious beasts day and night.
Tianmeng Ice Silkworm was originally the soul beast ‘Ice Silkworm’ at the bottom of the food chain in the Far North. Apart from weak mental power, it had no means of attack.
The reason why it became a million-year soul beast is entirely because it accidentally fell into a cave of ten thousand years of black ice and swallowed all the ten thousand years of black ice marrow in it.
This allowed it to grow smoothly into a million-year-old soul beast, without encountering a single catastrophe during this period.
Ten thousand years of black ice marrow can turn a waste soul beast into a million-year soul beast, which shows how precious this natural and earthly treasure is.
Of course, what Gu Yi is looking for is not the Cave Ten Thousand Years Xuan Ice Marrow that Tianmeng Ice Silkworm ate.
This disappeared many years ago.
What Gu Yi is looking for is the second Wanzai Xuan Ice Cave. In addition to the Wanzai Xuan Ice Marrow, there is another special metal mineral 'Ice Divine Crystal'.
The former can be used to refine medicine, or can be taken directly to enhance cultivation, while the latter can be used as a weapon refining material.
It just so happens that Gu Yi's Blood Soul Gun needs such high-grade metal.
However, this Ten Thousand Years Xuan Ice Cave will be located underground in the largest city in the north, ‘Dragon City’, ten thousand years later.
In this era ten thousand years ago, there was not even a shadow of Dragon City.
After all, the Dragon City ten thousand years later was built by Tianlongmen.
The predecessor of Tianlong Sect is the current Shangsan Sect ‘Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Family’. The latter has not yet destroyed the clan, so naturally they will not come here to build new sects and cities.
So Gu Yi could not quickly find the cave based on this clue.
However, Gu Yi did not give up. He remembered that there was a natural cold spring outside the Wanzai Xuan Ice Cave. As long as he found similar terrain in this northern area, there was a chance of finding the Wanzai Xuan Ice Cave!
Gu Yina's ring flashed, and four figures appeared, bowing respectfully to Guyi.
“Meet the master!”
They are none other than Tang Xiao’s four blood shadow puppets.
"You are looking for a natural cold spring within a hundred miles. Once you find one, come back and report it immediately."
"Yes!" Tang Xiao responded and immediately went to carry out Gu Yi's order.
This is the tyranny of the 'Blood Shadow'. Their souls are in the hands of Gu Yi. No matter what they think in their hearts, they must faithfully execute Gu Yi's orders.
Even if Gu Yi lets them die again.
In other words, the blood of people who died in the Killing City will be sucked out as quickly as possible, and Gu Yi can't even use blood shadow on them.
Otherwise, Gu Yi could have more blood shadow puppets.
In this way, it will be more convenient to find the Wanzai Xuanbing Cave.
Gu Yi looked at Tang Xiao and others disappearing into the ice and snow, and smiled at Qing Lin and Xiao Wu: "Let's also look around here and take a look at the surrounding scenery. Speaking of which, you guys before They have never seen such a scene of ice and snow.”
Qing Lin and Xiao Wu nodded, their eyes full of surprise.
They live in the Great Star Forest in the center of the Douluo Continent. There are various terrains in it, such as lakes, hills, swamps... but there is no snow.
One was born in the Tagore Desert, the hottest place in the Jiama Empire on the Fighting Continent, and has nothing to do with cold. The surrounding ice and snow really made them feel extremely surprised and excited.
“Let’s go!”
Gu Yi cut down a big tree nearby, made several simple skis and ski poles, and took the two girls to slide into the distance.
Along the way, Gu Yi's spiritual power spread out, sensing the surrounding areas with lower temperatures.
Although Cold Spring is a spring water, its temperature is colder than the surrounding ice and snow.
Not to mention that under the cold spring, there are two kinds of natural materials and earth treasures with lower temperatures.
As long as you follow this direction, it will be easier to find it.
……
Five days passed in the blink of an eye.
Gu Yi, three people and several blood shadow puppets searched a large area, but still could not find the locations of Hanquan and Wanzai Xuanbing Cave.
Just when Gu Yi was about to expand the search scope, a blood shadow puppet brought him good news.
Stepping through thick ice and snow, Gu Yi and others came to the middle of an ice and snow canyon. A clear blue spring water came into view, and a chilly vitality of heaven and earth rippled in the water.
Gu Yi said: "Qing Lin, Xiao Wu, this cold spring contains rich vitality and can nourish the body. You can take a dip here later."
Qing Lin and the two women said to each other. Gu Yi's words do not doubt that he is there, and he is going to practice in Hanquan later.
As for Gu Yi, he jumped directly into the cold spring and sank rapidly downwards.
The further down the cold spring is, the lower the temperature becomes.
By the time Gu Yi sank to a depth of thirty meters and reached the spring of Hanquan, the temperature here was almost the same as that of the Yinquan of Hanji in the Eye of Ice and Fire.
Such a temperature has no effect on Gu Yi, who has extremely high resistance to ice and fire.
Gu Yi walked directly through the spring and entered an underground cave.
The cave is not big, and it is densely covered with crystal clear dark blue crystal ore.
This is exactly the ice-attributed metal mineral that Gu Yi is looking for, the Ice Divine Crystal!
The quality of the Ice Divine Crystals varies. Some are full of spirituality and have given birth to ice spirits, while others have no spirituality at all.
As the top metal in the Douluo world, the ice crystals are extremely hard and cannot be removed by ordinary means.
The 'only' way is to inject the soul power of 'Ultimate Ice' to soften the ice crystal.
Gu Yi, who does not have Ultimate Ice, obviously cannot use this method.
But Gu Yi could use another method.
I saw the Green Lotus Earth Core Fire emerging from the palm of Guyi's hand, turning the fire into a knife, and directly dug out the roots of the Ice Crystal in the cave.
The so-called cold air is not worth mentioning under the strange fire.
Soon Gu Yi dug out all the ice crystals, enough for Gu Yi to refine several two to three meter long gun bodies.
After taking away all the Ice Divine Crystals, Gu Yi did not choose to return to the cold spring, but continued to swim downward.
Ice Divine Crystal is only an accompanying mineral of Wanzai Xuan Ice Marrow, and its value is much lower than Wanzai Xuan Ice Marrow.
After going tens of meters deeper, Gu Yi once again entered a small cave of less than ten square meters. The temperature here was even lower than that of the Ice and Fire Eyes.
Gu Yi's whole body ignited with cyan flames, using the blazing high temperature to eliminate the effects of the extreme cold.
In this cave, there are more than a dozen icicles as white as jade, with liquid flowing faintly inside, and the terrifying chill is released from them.
"Wanzai Xuanbing Marrow!" Gu Yi's eyes flashed.
This rich ice-attribute energy of heaven and earth can probably be used to refine sixth-grade elixirs.
If they were all absorbed and refined by Gu Yi, his cultivation should be able to break through all the way to the Xuanwu realm.
Similar to taking the ice crystal, Gu Yi used the strange fire as a knife to remove the icicles containing the black ice marrow one by one.
At this moment, a cold and majestic voice sounded in Gu Yi’s ears:
“Completed the second test of the Shura Divine Examination, successfully entered the Wanzai Xuan Ice Cave, and obtained the Wanzai Xuan Ice Cave. Containing Xuan Ice Essence, rewards Shura God Affinity by 10%”
