Ice Field.
The snow had stopped, and the haze had dissipated. Sunlight shone on the white snow, and the Ice Spirit Crystals began to melt.
When Su Chen arrived, there were already some cultivators absorbing the pure Ice Spirit Qi.
They were not disciples of the Ice City Sect, and they would not dare to come back in the near future. Those who came here to absorb the Ice Spirit Qi were mostly rogue cultivators. There were some who were strong, and some who were weak. However, there was no Annihilation Tribulation, and the strongest one was the Lifeless Tribulation. Su Chen was considered one of the top cultivators here, and there was nothing to be afraid of.
However, considering that there might be powerful cultivators here, Su Chen did not dare to land in the center of the Ice Field.
Anyway, the Ice Field was huge, and he could not absorb that much Ice Spirit Qi. He just needed to find a place to absorb it slowly.
After searching for a while, Su Chen found a secluded ice valley, which was suitable for him to absorb the Ice Spirit Qi.
Su Chen was lucky. As soon as he landed in the ice valley, he found a pure white Snow Lotus under the melting snow. It gave off the aura of a high-grade Godly Medicine.
Su Chen immediately recognized that it was the Ice Soul Snow Lotus. It was the most suitable Godly Medicine for a Pure Yin Body, and it could greatly increase one's Pure Yin Energy.
Su Chen did not pick the Ice Soul Snow Lotus. Instead, he sat on the ground and activated the Fire of God. He began to refine the Ice Soul Snow Lotus with his bare hands to preserve its full medicinal power.
After six hours of refining, a snow-white Ice Soul Pill was finally formed.
The bottom of the pill was even connected to the roots of the Ice Soul Snow Lotus.
Su Chen swallowed the Ice Soul Pill in one gulp. While he was refining the pill, he began to absorb the rich ice spiritual energy in the valley to boost the refining effect of the pill. At the same time, he used the ice spiritual energy to expand the Water Spiritual Root in his body.
Time ticked by.
Su Chen's hair and eyebrows were covered with a thick layer of frost.
His body seemed to have turned into an ice sculpture. If not for the fact that he was still breathing normally, he would have been frozen to death.
After three days, the Ice Spirit Crystals in the valley had completely melted.
The valley revealed its original appearance. Under the moist soil, the seeds of plants and trees grew rapidly under the nourishment of the spiritual energy. A large number of ice attribute medicinal herbs appeared out of nowhere.
However, not long after, these medicinal plants withered.
The energy they contained was continuously absorbed by Su Chen.
At this moment, Su Chen was using his special physique, the Sevenshine Treasured Body, to absorb the Ice Spirit Qi that permeated the earth.
After the Sevenshine Treasured Body was integrated into the Renhuang Physique, all of its functions were retained. Moreover, its power had increased. Not only could it absorb the Qi of the earth veins deep underground, but it could also absorb all the energy contained in the earth. As long as it was in the right environment, using the power of the Sevenshine Treasured Body to cultivate, the results would be excellent.
However, Su Chen would still try his best to restrain himself. Otherwise, the destructive power of the Sevenshine Treasured Body would be too strong. Once he used it excessively, it might completely destroy the vitality of the water and soil.
It was better not to do such things that would damage one's virtue.
After another two days, Su Chen finished absorbing the Ice Spirit Qi in the earth and stopped.
After five days of cultivation, Su Chen could clearly feel that his strength had increased. Moreover, the Water Spiritual Root had also been nourished. Although it was still a little weaker than the Fire Spiritual Root, at least it could maintain the balance of Yin and Yang.
However, although his strength had risen to the level close to the peak of the Lifeless Tribulation, Su Chen's lifespan had not increased by much.
Although the system was currently upgrading and maintaining and could not display specific attributes, Su Chen could still roughly perceive that his remaining lifespan would not exceed five years.
If there were no problems with his soul, then the effect of Su Chen's cultivation might be enhanced a lot.
Standing up, Su Chen stretched.
"Let's go to the City of Soul Lanterns."
Stepping on the Taiji Immortal Sword, Su Chen flew north at full speed.
The City of Soul Lanterns was three hundred million miles away. It was a long distance. Even with Su Chen's speed, it would take several days to arrive.
If he teleported there, it would definitely be very fast. However, high-intensity teleportation was still quite a burden on the body. Su Chen's current state was not perfect, so it was not suitable for high-intensity teleportation. Although it would take more time to fly there, it was safer to fly there.
It would only take a few days.
In order to avoid the enemies on the ground, Su Chen flew at a very high altitude, almost 100,000 meters above the ground. At this height, ordinary flying monsters would not come close. The Primordial Qi and Spirit Qi here were relatively thin, and the temperature was very low.
The environment was a little difficult, but at least he would not encounter any obstacles. Su Chen could concentrate on flying.
After three days and three nights, Su Chen finally flew three hundred million miles.
Although he had not found the City of Soul Lanterns, he was definitely close.
However, Su Chen was already exhausted. After he landed, he landed on a desolate mountain. Lying on a large bluestone, he inscribed an invisibility rune and fell asleep.
Perhaps because of his weak soul, Su Chen's current physical fitness was very strong, but his mental strength was very weak. After three days without sleep, he was actually exhausted. This was something that had never happened before.
Su Chen slept for a full day and night.
When he woke up, he was shocked to find himself lying in a carriage.
Su Chen immediately put up a vigilant expression. He held the Taiji Immortal Sword tightly in his hand, and a blazing fire surrounded him.
"You're awake?
Don't be nervous. I saw that you were unconscious in the wilderness and happened to pass by, so I brought you here. There are many evil spirits and demons in the mountains. You slept there defenseless, so it's easy for the evil spirits to target you.
“
A pale-faced man sitting across from Su Chen said with a gentle smile.
He was seventeen or eighteen years old, with red lips and white teeth. His clothes were extraordinary, and he had an elegant aristocratic aura. He did not look like a bad person.
Moreover, there was a strange soul fluctuation on this person's body. Although he did not reveal his strength, Su Chen could clearly feel that his strength should be far above his own. If he really came with ill intentions, Su Chen was afraid that he would not have been able to survive until now.
Su Chen gradually retracted the flames on his body. He cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, brother. I am Su Chen. May I know your name?"
"Just call me An Rong."
"Brother An Rong, I want to go to the City of Soul Lanterns. Can you tell me the direction?"
"What a coincidence," An Rong said. "I happen to be returning to the City of Soul Lanterns. I'll be there before evening. Come with me."
Is that so?
Then Su Chen's luck was not bad.
"Thank you, brother An Rong."
“
Su Chen chatted casually with An Rong. He learned that his family ruled the City of Soul Lanterns, and that he was the third young master of the City Lord's family. An Rong himself was very strong. He had broken through the Immortality Tribulation and was only half a step away from becoming a Saint.
Su Chen learned that breaking through the Immortality Tribulation did not mean that one could become a Saint immediately. There was still a transition period. One had to go through the Great Tribulation of the Saint before one could truly enter the Saint realm.
