"Indeed, senior. The Sutra Collection Pavilion in this palace has seven floors, and the classics on each floor are distinctly different. The higher the floor, the greater the rarity. In addition, barriers are set up on each floor to avoid confusion of the jade slips."

"If the senior wants to go down to other levels, just inform the junior at any time. The junior will always wait outside the door and obey orders."
The old man was humble and respectful, and the spiritual pressure on his body showed that he was a monk in the middle stage of pill formation.
"Understood, please leave now." Yan Yun nodded, with a calm expression.
"Yes!" the old man responded respectfully, backed away and closed the stone door.
Yan Yun was the only one left in the secret room. He walked towards the light mask and pointed the object in his hand at the light mask.
In an instant, the mask of light shattered, and three jade slips appeared on the stone platform.
Yan Yun took one and put it into his heart.
At the same time, on the second floor of Bai Ning Pavilion, two women in white stood facing each other.
One is Bai Yaoyi, and the other is a female cultivator who appeared in Master Hanli's residence.
The two have similar looks, one is gentle and charming, the other is cold and ruthless.
"I have informed the second sister. I know very little about Taoist Fellow Yan. Although he once claimed to be an overseas loose cultivator, both Yinluo Sect and Tianlan Temple call him Tiannan cultivator."
"This human enemy is a monk in the late stage of Yuanying. He once subdued four tenth-level monsters in the Yin and Yang Cave. As for how he escaped from Kunwu Mountain, I don't know."
Bai Yaoyi leaned against the window, stroking her black hair, frowning slightly, as if she was dissatisfied.
"Don't be surprised, Seventh Sister. This person has extraordinary strength. He comes from Tiannan, which is amazing."
The other woman in white had a cold tone and no emotion.
Bai Yaoyi was indifferent to this, knowing full well that it was due to the extreme nature of her practice.
However, the other party kept asking about Yan Yun, which made her quite unhappy.
"My relationship with this person is not very close. I only met him last time I went out. I'm sorry to tell you more specific things."
"Everything I said before is true. I wonder why the Great Elder is so interested in Fellow Taoist Yan?"
Bai Yaoyi moved away from the window sill and asked leisurely.
"It's just because it possesses the extremely cold flame, which happens to be what Senior Brother Hanli needs. Seventh Sister should know about this, why didn't she reveal it to us?"
The woman in white's eyes flashed and she asked coldly.
"I have been separated from him for ten years. I don't know whether he can escape from Kunwu Mountain, so how dare I mention this matter rashly. Now, I originally planned to wait until I found the Xuanbing Jade before mentioning this matter. I never wanted to let my senior brother report it first. Great Elder.”
Bai Yaoyi replied calmly: "Since I can't understand, I won't ask any more questions. This fellow practitioner is extremely powerful, and we must do our best to win him over, especially to explore the true power of his white cold flames." The woman in white suggested sincerely.
Bai Yaoyi nodded gently: "I will look for opportunities to test."
After hearing this, the woman in white walked downstairs and left calmly. Bai Yaoyi watched her leave in silence, her eyes revealing deep thoughts.
Time flies, Yan Yun spent seven or eight days and nights in the Sutra Collection Pavilion of Xiaoji Palace, reading a large number of classics and gaining a lot. However, he could only navigate to the third level. He felt very sorry for this.
On this day, he was reading a book about rare ancient elixirs, when suddenly a ray of fire came through the air, directly penetrated the barrier of the secret room and entered the room. Yan Yun reacted quickly, took the fire light into his palm, and turned it into a blazing fireball, which turned out to be a transmission talisman.
After reading the message in the flame, Yan Yun looked happy, immediately put down the jade slip in his hand, turned into a escaping light and went downstairs. After a moment, a golden light fell in front of Bai Ning Tower, where Bai Yaoyi stood gracefully.
The light dissipated, and Yan Yun appeared, asking eagerly: "Fellow Daoist Bai, Xuan Bingyu has been found, is this serious?"
Bai Yaoyi responded with a smile: "It's absolutely true. It was originally expected to take more than a month to get the news."
Yan Yun was very excited: "Great! Fairy Bai, is it convenient for us to set off immediately?"
Bai Yaoyi smiled slightly: "Any time is fine. I am waiting here for Brother Yan to lead the way. The Wannian Xuanbing discovered this time is located outside Beiming Island, and it may take several days to go back and forth."
Yan Yun replied firmly: "This time is nothing. As long as I can collect Xuanbing flowers, I am willing to go there even if it takes a year."
Bai Yaoyi just smiled and said nothing after hearing this. Afterwards, the two left the Hanli Secret Realm, left the Ice City, and galloped all the way to the north. On the way, Bai Yaoyi informed the specific situation of Wannian Xuanbing in detail.
"It's actually in the Snow Roar Beast's lair?" Yan Yun asked in surprise.
Bai Yaoyi nodded and confirmed: "That's true. The disciple who discovered Xuan Bing was discovered and chased by the Snow Roar Beast due to his negligence. He was eventually seriously injured and almost died."
Yan Yun asked curiously: "How powerful are those Snow Roar Beasts?"
"Perhaps this operation will disappoint Brother Yan. The monsters this time only belong to the fifth or sixth level monster category, which is not enough to attract your attention." Bai Yaoyi raised the corner of her mouth slightly, revealing a warm smile.
"Indeed, the fifth and sixth level monsters don't seem to be worth catching." Yan Yun responded with a chuckle.
"However, as we gradually penetrate deeper into Beiming Island and are about to step out of its range, we will next be in the vast sea of ice. The environment here is completely different from that on the island, and there are many kinds of monsters and beasts emerging in endlessly."
"At the same time, the further away from the island, the higher the level of the monster. Normally, during a trip of several days, we will not encounter monsters above level eight, so we don't need to worry too much. But in the depths of the ice sea, But there are often many terrifying monsters hidden there, even level ten monsters.”
"According to the great elders of the previous two generations, they once witnessed a tenth-level ancient ice phoenix in the depths of the ice sea far away from Beiming Island. This is the true bloodline of ancient spiritual beasts. Only this one The monsters are enough to withstand the attacks of most of the monks in our Xiaoji Palace." Bai Yaoyi's tone became serious.
"Level 10 ice phoenix!" Yan Yun raised his eyebrows slightly after hearing the news. It would be great if he could really meet this ice phoenix.
"Brother Yan, there is no need to worry too much. It is said that when the founder of our sect founded the sect, he had a fierce battle with several ancient monsters in the ice sea and reached an agreement."
"According to this agreement, our Xiaoji Palace cannot launch attacks on high-level monsters in the ice sea at will, and high-level monsters cannot enter within a million miles of Beiming Island, otherwise they will be at the disposal of our Xiaoji Palace monks."
"As for low-level monsters, they are not bound by this agreement. Most of the monsters that have besieged our Xiaoji Palace over the years have migrated to the North from other areas of Dajin. If the ice sea monsters are also involved, our Xiaoji Palace will It has been destroyed countless times. This has been the case since ancient times. Otherwise, how could our Xiaoji Palace have established a foothold on the peninsula to this day?" Bai Yaoyi explained in detail. "There is such a thing, so it seems that we will not face too much danger in this operation." Yan Yun was surprised, but a relaxed smile appeared on his face.
"This matter is not absolute. Although there is an agreement in advance, there are still high-level monsters that occasionally lose their minds and break into Beiming Island desperately. Therefore, almost every year, some of our palace disciples die at the hands of monsters. We still need to be vigilant in this operation!" Bai Yaoyi shook her head and reminded.
"It only takes a few days to complete the journey in the blink of an eye. How could we encounter a high-level monster by such a coincidence!" Yan Yun said calmly as he looked at the crystal clear glacier below.
Immediately afterwards, golden light bloomed on his body, and his escape speed suddenly increased by 30%.
In fact, Bai Yaoyi had the same idea. She just briefly stated the facts. Seeing Yan Yun's reaction, a glimmer of light flashed in her eyes, a cold aura emitted from her body, and she quickly followed him.
During the rest of the journey, they did not encounter any traces of high-level monsters, and the ice sea was so vast that they did not even encounter a few waves of low-level monsters.
So, after three days and three nights of continuous flying, they finally arrived above a huge ice crevice.
"Is this the place where the Snow Howler beast lives?" Yan Yun looked at the bottomless ice cracks where the biting cold wind howled from time to time, and asked with a slight frown on his eyebrows.
"Indeed, this is exactly the location mentioned by my sect disciple!" Bai Yaoyi, a peerless beauty, floated over, looked around Yan Yun, and replied firmly.
"In that case, let's lure it out." Yan Yun nodded slightly, waved one hand, and as the aura flickered around him, sparks appeared in front of his eyes. Then, with a few "puffs", the sparks quickly expanded into a Each red fireball is about the size of a fist in diameter.
"Go!"
Yan Yun's sleeves flicked, and dozens of fireballs moved in front of him. Accompanied by a whistling sound, a blazing red light enveloped these fireballs and they fell rapidly, disappearing in a blink of an eye and disappearing deep into the dark cracks.
Yan Yun and Bai Yaoyi stared down, their eyes unblinking.
However, after waiting for a period of time, there was still no movement in the crack, and there was no explosion sound. It seemed extremely quiet and a little uneasy.
Yan Yun and Bai Yaoyi looked at each other, with a hint of surprise in each other's eyes.
"It is impossible for fifth- and sixth-level monsters alone to quietly resolve these fireballs. It seems that there must be more powerful monsters hidden below." Yan Yun touched his chin and analyzed thoughtfully.
"Perhaps so. The disciple of my sect did not go deep into the ice crevices. He only discovered the ten thousand-year black ice on the edge and was attacked by the Snow Shout Beast." Bai Yaoyi responded with the same solemn expression.
"It doesn't matter, let me use my spiritual beast to drive it out."
Yan Yun smiled indifferently, patted a certain spirit beast bag on his waist with one hand, and densely packed gold-eating insects flew out from it.
Looking from a distance, it seems to form a golden stream of light, which is dazzling.
Bai Yaoyi smiled sweetly, but did not take any offensive action,
Obviously she firmly believed that Yan Yun would be able to easily deal with the monster that was about to appear on his own.
A moment later, a strange roar of beasts came clearly from below, and then, a storm of white snowflakes swept over.
Among them were seven or eight snow-white monsters that looked like lions, each one looking panicked, as if they were trying their best to escape from danger.
Yan Yun recognized at a glance that these lion-like beasts were the legendary "Snow Roaring Beasts"!
Before these monsters could react, the golden light swayed strangely around them.
Immediately afterwards, several shrill roars pierced the sky. These monster beasts were instantly cut into two pieces, and their wreckage fell from the sky like raindrops and fell back into the ice crevices.
Immediately afterwards, a beast's roar that shook the world came from below, followed by a huge roar, and a hurricane several feet thick shot straight into the sky from the depths of the ice crevice.
Yan Yun narrowed his eyes slightly and looked up.
At the top of the hurricane, I saw a monster beast several feet tall with a ferocious face.
The appearance of this monster is very similar to that of the Snow Shout Beast that was killed before. However, the silver hair on its body is shining brightly, and its stature is more than twice the size of the Snow Shout Beast.
"Oh, it turns out this is not the Snow Howler, but the Ice Beast! Why does such a high-level monster appear here?"
Bai Yaoyi let out a low cry in surprise, seemingly puzzled by this.
Yan Yun's eyes flickered uncertainly, and he was about to take action.
"Please wait a moment, fellow Taoist, can you show mercy? This ice beast is a rare ice-wind attribute monster. Why don't you let me keep it in my pocket? It may be of great use in the future."
Yan Yun couldn't help being stunned when he heard this, but then he smiled calmly:
"In this case, let me do the work for you and capture this ferocious ice beast. Fellow Daoist Bai no longer needs to take action himself."
The moment he finished speaking, Yan Yun immediately opened his mouth, and a stream of pure white flames spurted out from his mouth. Then a crisp cry came from it, and it instantly transformed into a flame bird only three feet in size. It was lifelike and its wings were struggling. Spread out and gallop towards the top of the storm.
Although this monster named Ice Beast has not yet fully opened its spiritual intelligence, it already possesses a certain degree of wisdom.
When it saw the scene in front of it, it immediately realized the terror of the white flame bird, so the wind surged all over its body, trying to escape from this place by riding the storm.
However, at this moment, Yan Yun, who had been prepared for a long time, let out a cold snort, and his eyes flickered.
The monster beast suddenly felt severe pain in its head, as if it had been hit hard by a sharp object, and then let out a low roar, and its body instantly collapsed to the ground.
It turned out that Yan Yun used his powerful spiritual consciousness to deal a heavy blow to the monster, causing it to fall into a brief state of trance.
Although Yan Yun did not exert all his power, the intensity of his spiritual consciousness was almost equivalent to that of a late-stage Nascent Soul monk. This was undoubtedly unbearable for an ice beast with only level seven strength, so he succeeded in one blow. subdued the opponent.
Taking advantage of this rare opportunity, the white flame bird quickly pounced on the monster, spinning and flying around it.
Along with the sound of "Zila", a cloud of white smoke suddenly appeared out of thin air, shrouding the monster.
Immediately afterwards, the white flame bird flapped its wings, quickly flew back to Yan Yun, and then disappeared without a trace.
After the white smoke gradually dissipated, a ten-foot-high white ice block was revealed, and the ice beast was actually frozen in the ice block.
At this moment, because the monster was trapped, the originally raging storm began to gradually dissipate, and the ice began to slowly fall. (End of chapter)
