Sovereign to Immortality

Chapter 518 – Yuangang

Before the black robed cultivator left, he looked deeply at Yang Junshan, and then left with his senior without turning back, in the blink of an eye, he was engulfed by the blizzard.

Seeing the two of them leave, Adept Jing Yuan reached out to the three stones on the ground that were almost covered by the falling snow. Then, the three fist-sized Ice Yuan Stones landed in his hands.

Even though the three of them could be considered experienced and knowledgeable, they could not help but be excited at the sight of the Cold Ice Essence Stone. Adept Jing Yuan laughed softly and said: “With this piece of Essence Stone, it would be equivalent to training for at least a year.”

As he said that, he threw one of the three primeval stones in his hands to Spiritual Master Liu Qiu and Yang Junshan.

Liu Qiu received the primeval stone and said, “I can’t compare to you. Although my Chungmen cultivation technique can’t be compared to the cold attribute, it is mainly pine, plum, chrysanthemum and other wood attribute cultivation techniques. These primeval stones are worth at most nine months of my time.”

Yang Junshan played with the Qi Stone in his hand, and upon seeing the two’s gaze on him, he could not help but laugh bitterly: “I hope I can save half a year of cultivation time.”

The Adept Jing Yuan said: “It’s not bad, Taoist Yang is not a cultivator of my Liang Zhou, so the cultivation technique he cultivates is not related to the cold attribute, but as long as he can filter the cold attribute from the Essence Stone, all that remains would be pure origin energy. After refining, he would want to increase his cultivation level for half a year without any problems.”

“Next is to find a safe place to refine the Essence Stone.”

Daoist Master Liu Qiu suggested, “How about we go to the Ice Bear’s nest? After so long, if the two Ice Bears return to the den, the three of us can work together to catcurtle in a jar. If they don’t return, then we can just wait there and conveniently refine the Essence Stone.”

“Good idea,” the Adept Jing Yuan praised, then turned and asked Yang Junshan: “What does Taoist Yang think?”

Yang Junshan muttered to himself for a bit, then said: “Alright.”

If he had been ambushed by the three of them first, there was at least an 80% chance that he would have won. Yang Junshan naturally did not have any reason to reject them, not to mention that after experiencing the Ice Fox’s lair, Yang Junshan also wanted to see if the thousand-year-old ice silkworm could even dig out the origin of ice energy from the ice bear’s lair.

The huge ice cave was still the same as before. The two ice bears did not return to their nest, and the three of them were not in a hurry. Each of them found a place to refine the Frozen Essence Stones in their hands.

This Ice Essence Stone was condensed from the purest Ice Essence Qi. Cultivators who cultivated in the cold attribute would only be able to refine it and condense it into the true essence in their dantian to raise their cultivation.

Even if Yang Junshan’s cultivation technique was not related to the cold attribute, as long as he removed the cold aura and kept the pure source energy, he could still use it to increase his own cultivation. But this way, the effect of his training would be greatly reduced, and the efficiency would be greatly reduced compared to the other two.

Adept Jing Yuan only spent a day’s worth of time to refine a single Ice Essence Stone, and the results of his cultivation was also the best. Although Spiritual Master Liu Qiu was a little lacking, it did not even take two days to refine all of the Ice Essence within the Ice Essence Stone.

He had to spend a total of three days to finish refining the Origin Energy Stone in his hand. This made Liu Qiu and Pure Yuan Li somewhat regretful, thinking that the Origin Energy in the Origin Essence Stone that it originally contained wauge waste.

However, what the two of them did not know was that although Yang Junshan was able to reduce the effect of the ice origin energy that he had used to refine the Ice Origin Stone, the ice origin energy that he had refined was not wasted. Instead, the ice origin energy continued to be greedily devoured by the thousand year old ice silkworm in the stone bottle on his waist.

And at the same time, as Yang Junshan was cultivating with all his might, the aura around him surged, so it was naturally not appropriate for the other two people to observe the cultivation process of others. Aesult, the two of them did not know that while Yang Junshan was refining the origin energy with all his might, the thousand-year-old ice silkworm had also discovered the icy origin energy hidden within the ice cave.

At the same time, it also made Yang Junshan even more convinced that there was a small amount of Ice Origin Qi hidden in the Ice Fox’s Lair, and the Ice Origin Qi inside the Ice Bear’s Lair would even need to hide from the Ice Fox’s Lair.

However, the amount of Ice Origin Qi in these nests was extremely low, to the point that no cultivators would be able to detect it. Furthermore, Ice Fox and the Ice Bear had only built their nests here based on their innate abilities, and only through the thousand-year Ice Silkworm could they condense the ice origin energy that was hidden in these nests.

With the amount of Essence Qi he absorbed from the Nine Toughness Formula, even if the Ice Source energy within the Essence Stone would reduce Yang Junshan’s refining efficiency, it would still only cost him two days. The reason why it was extended by another day, aside from Yang Junshan not wanting to reveal too much of his strength, was to cover up the process of him using the ice silkworm to extract the Ice Source energy from within the nest.

A single Origin Energy Stone was undoubtedly only equivalent to six months of Yang Junshan’s cultivation time, but with the help of the ice silkworm, Yang Junshan actually had an extra month of cultivation time.

After the three of them finished refining the Essence Stones, they could faintly feel the increase in each other’s cultivation. Although the degree of increase was limited, it was extremely precious to the Adept Realm Cultivator.

The only pity was that in the past three days, the two adult bears had not returned to their nest. This caused the three of them to feel extremely regretful, as they guessed that the two bears had probably already abandoned their nest.

In a glacier valley a hundred kilometers away from the ice cave, the three of them, who had originally been waiting for them, were now lying prostrate on the ground like docile dogs.

However, in front of these two bears, there was a muscular man with thick fur patting the heads of the two giant bears, as if talking to himself, he said: “Oh, your child was killed by a human cultivator, it’s pitiful, you can only act based on instinct, you can’t use 30% of your abilities, the thing I just passed down to you, you just need to focus on cultivating, as long as you’re smart, what else can make you suffer!”

However, the man seemed to be able to understand the meaning behind the two bears’ words, and said: “Don’t worry, the most important thing right now is to find a new nest, hide, and don’t let anyone find out. Then, train according to the things I’ve given you, as long as you become a Demonic cultivator, you can personally avenge your own child.”

As he spoke to here, the big fellow ‘eh’ uttered a cry and suddenly lifted his head, only to see a bright light suddenly erupting from the extreme north, and then a bright light rushed towards them. He was like a flame that jumped out of the source of fire, cutting off the connection to the source of the light and converging together, leaving behind only a beautiful light that appeared in the gray clouds, and this light was now several dozen miles away in the sky.

The explosion of the Aurora, or in other words, the Dual Polarity Origin Divine Handle, was coincidentally not far from where Yang Junshan and the others were.

Yang Junshan and the other two had just come out of the ice bear’s den. They were initially discussing their next course of action, and Yang Junshan even had plans to travel on his own with the other two, when the Aurora above them suddenly disrupted their original plans.

“Let’s join forces. Right now, the Aurora is erupting above our heads. I’m afraid all of the Daoist cultivators within a hundred kilometer radius will arrive soon.” Daoist Master Liu Qiu suggested to the other two.

The Adept Jing Yuan added, “Not only the other cultivators, there might be other Icy Plains savage beasts joining in as well. If the three of us join forces, even if we don’t take the initiative to snatch the other party, at least we don’t have to worry about being robbed by others.”

The two of them looked at Yang Junshan, although the two of them were also arrogant people, they had to admit that Yang Junshan was probably the strongest amongst the three of them, if they could win against Yang Junshan, the strength of the three of them could even suppress the Gangli Accumulation Realm cultivators.

Yang Junshan thought for a while and understood the pros and cons, thus he said straightforwardly: “Alright then, while the Yuangang has its own methods, when encountering an enemy, we have to advance and retreat together.”

“There’s no time to lose, let’s go!”

The three of them controlled the Escape Light and turned into three streams of light, shooting straight into the clouds in the sky that were dyed in the Aurora’s light.

However, as Yang Junshan and the other two flew higher, the raging cold wind became increasingly stronger as well. Under the assault of the dense coldness, their protective auras were covered in a thick layer of ice, and it looked as if three gigantic balls of ice were flying upwards. “Creak creak creak” sounds of freezing ice would occasionally ring out, as if their protective protective auras were about to collapse from the cold at any moment.

At this time, they had to rely on their own means. First, Daoist Master Liu Qiu had taken out a furry leather hat and put it on his head. This hat was stimulated by his true essence.

Yang Junshan couldn’t help but be a little speechless. If he didn’t guess wrongly, this hat should have been made from the skin of an adult ice bear. This kind of funny hat was actually a genuine cold fighting spirit artifact.

As for the top of Adept Jing Yuan’s head, a cyan colored bead that flickered with cyan light appeared above his head. Even though the cold air current was blowing on his face, the bead had seemingly formed a protective barrier around him.

Just when Yang Junshan was surprised at the skills of the two, he did not know that Adept Jing Yuan and Spiritual Master Liu Qiu were not only looking at Yang Junshan with astonishment, they were also shocked!

After the protective aura, which was no longer able to withstand the freezing coldness, was withdrawn, Yang Junshan actually didn’t do anything. He just exposed his body to the cold current in the air which was mixed with the ice origin energy of the extreme northern lands, and when the cold current blew on his body, it was actually like a spring breeze, unable to harm him at all.
