The night sky was like a curtain that enveloped the land. Snowflakes were falling from the dark sky. Those snowflakes contained an indescribable chilling aura. As the snowflakes drifted onto the ground, even the ground was instantly sealed in ice.
In this region that was covered in snowflakes, even the Spiritual Energy between the heavens and earth showed signs of freezing.
A couple of figures were seated within a mountain cave with a fiery-red bead suspended between them. The bead appeared to contain a volcano as it emitted a high temperature, causing the cold air within the cave to be completely expelled.
There was also a Spiritual Array that was vaguely visible at the entrance of the cave, resisting the erosion of the chill between the heavens and earth.
"This snow is truly domineering."
Mu Chen couldn't help sighing as he looked at the snowflakes outside the cave. They had left the Spiritual Butterfly Legacy a day ago, and they were unlucky to encounter another natural disaster in the Primordial Sacred Abyss, which forced them to hide for the time being.
"This is the Soul-Freezing Snow. It's said that it can even freeze a person's soul."
Wen Qingxuan said with a smile. She then pointed at the fiery-red pearl floating in the middle of the group with some pride and said, "It's a good thing that I came prepared and brought a Spiritual Flame Pearl. Otherwise, even if we hid in the cave, we would have to constantly exhaust our own spiritual energy to expel the cold air."
Mu Chen nodded his head. If it wasn't for Wen Qingxuan's preparations, they would have to resort to the most exhausting method, which would undoubtedly affect their condition.
"What should we do next?"
Luo Li's crystal-clear eyes looked towards Mu Chen. At this moment, she slightly tilted her head, causing her previously untied long hair to instantly flow down like a waterfall. With a faint smile on her face, her unintentional flirtatious expression gave off a breathtaking feeling, as if it had caused the entire mountain cave to light up.
"Luo Li, you're getting more and more beautiful!"
Her breathtaking beauty made Mu Chen unable to shift his eyes away, while Wen Ziyu and Long Xiang didn't dare to look at her. On the other hand, Wen Qingxuan's eyes lit up as she quietly moved over and wrapped her arm around her waist with a smile.
Sensing Wen Qingxuan's actions, Luo Li rolled her eyes in amusement and anger. With a gentle flick of her jade-like finger, she flicked Wen Qingxuan's jade-like hand away.
"That fellow really got lucky."
Wen Qingxuan bitterly retracted her hand before she lazily said, "Our next destination is a city in the Primordial Sacred Abyss. According to the information, it's a gathering point, and there should be many teams gathered there."
"Oh?" Mu Chen squinted his eyes and asked, "Can we obtain the information that we want there?"
They were naturally thinking about the two Ancestors of the Ancient Buddha Clan and Ancient Spirit Clan.
Nodding her head, Wen Qingxuan replied, "Back then, four Saint Heavenly Sovereigns of our Great Thousand World fell in the Primordial Sacred Abyss, and their ruins are the hardest to find. Although there's some information circulating, no one has managed to obtain their inheritance."
"According to some reliable information, the ruins of those four Saint Heavenly Sovereigns aren't fixed, but they're moving around in the Primordial Sacred Abyss."
"Moving?"
Mu Chen instantly knitted his brows. If that's the case, then it would be harder for them to find the ruins.
"That's why we have to go to that gathering point, because that's also the gathering and exchange place for information. Almost all the powerful teams will head to the gathering point after exploring for a period of time. We should be able to obtain some relevant information there," Wen Qingxuan said.
Mu Chen nodded his head. If that's the case, then they had to head to the gathering point. Otherwise, it wouldn't be easy for them to obtain any information.
But according to what Wen Qingxuan had said, that gathering point was a place where dragons and snakes mixed together. There's a high possibility that even the three teams of the Ancient Buddha Clan would head there.
Amongst the three teams, Xuan Luo and Mo Xin clearly had ill intentions for him, and if they encountered each other, there might be a conflict between them.
But regarding this matter, Mu Chen had already skipped it. If the so-called Young Master Xuan Luo and Young Master Mo Xin wanted to treat him as a pushover, then he wouldn't mind testing the capabilities of the Young Masters of the Ancient Buddha Clan.
"I can try the Promotion Pellet now."
Naturally, although he wasn't afraid of those Young Masters, Mu Chen wasn't a careless person. Even a lion would use its full strength to capture a rabbit, not to mention that Xuan Luo and Mo Xin weren't pushovers. Thus, he felt that it would be best if he could use the Promotion Pellet to make a breakthrough in the Sovereign Ability of the Immortal Golden Body.
Thinking about it, Mu Chen no longer hesitated. After speaking a few words with Luo Li and Wen Qingxuan, he stood up and walked towards the cultivation room at the side of the cave.
"It's time for us to make our breakthroughs."
Looking at Mu Chen's silhouette, Wen Ziyu and Long Xiang also stood up and impatiently spoke out.
They had obtained the Holy Spirit Pellet in the Spirit-Butterfly Legacy, and as long as they refined it, it wouldn't be a problem for them to break through to the Perfected Earth Sovereign Realm.
The confrontation in the Spirit-Butterfly Legacy had already let them know that a Quasi-Perfected Earth Sovereign could only protect themselves in the Primordial Sacred Abyss. If they wanted to become a top-tiered fighting force, then they would have to reach the Perfected Earth Sovereign Realm.
"I'll have to trouble you guys to keep watch."
Luo Li smiled towards Wen Qingxuan and Ling Xi before entering a cultivation chamber. She had also obtained a Promotion Pellet from Mu Chen, which was extremely important to her.
After all, the Luo Shen Celestial Body that she had cultivated was a genuine Sovereign Celestial Body on the 99 Rankings of Sovereign Celestial Bodies!
Following their departure, the mountain cave instantly turned silent. Exchanging a look, Wen Qingxuan and Ling Xi could only smile helplessly, before gradually closing their eyes and entering a shallow state of cultivation.
In the cultivation room of a huge cave.
Mu Chen was like a boulder as he quietly sat with his legs crossed. Before him, there was a round pellet that looked like a crystal pearl quietly floating in the air. A delicate fragrance was emitting from it, causing the Spiritual Energy in the entire Cultivation Chamber to fluctuate.
Looking at the Promotion Pellet, Mu Chen took a deep breath and his hands joined together. A spiritual lustre swept out from his body and the Immortal Golden Body that was a few hundred feet in size swiftly formed behind him.
The Promotion Pellet could raise a Divine Ability by a level. But if you used the Divine Ability that you've cultivated before consuming it, the probability would be increased by more than 50%. Thus, Mu Chen wasn't worried that the Promotion Pellet would affect other Divine Abilities.
If that's the case, then he could only blame it on his bad luck.
When the Immortal Golden Body appeared, Mu Chen no longer hesitated. He opened his mouth and devoured the pellet.
Boom!
When the Promotion Pellet entered his mouth, it instantly shattered and an indescribable chill spread throughout Mu Chen's limbs and bones. In the next moment, there was a miraculous feeling that poured into the depths of his spirit.
At that moment, it was as if he possessed infinite intelligence. Some of the obstacles that he faced when he was training in the past had completely disappeared at this moment.
Both of Mu Chen's eyes were shut with a calm expression, as if he had fallen into a state of comprehension. The Immortal Golden Body behind him had also adopted a cultivation posture with a purplish-golden lustre flickering on the surface of its massive body, as if it was nurturing something.
Silence once again returned to the huge cave.
The snowflakes that permeated the sky had already disappeared the next day. What surprised everyone was that the land, which was originally sealed in ice for thousands of miles, had actually begun to swiftly melt.
Boom!
Suddenly, two majestic and powerful Spiritual Energy fluctuations soared into the sky from a mountain cave. Shortly after, two figures of light broke through the cave and soared into the sky.
The two silhouettes roared towards the sky with thunderous roars that attracted Spiritual Energy in the sky.
"So noisy!"
Outside the cave, Wen Qingxuan glared at the two of them and barked.
Wen Ziyu and Long Xiang exchanged a look and immediately shut their mouths. However, the joy in their eyes couldn't be concealed. That's because, with the Holy Spirit Pellet, the two of them had finally broken through and stepped into the Perfected Earth Sovereign Realm!
At this moment, the tightly shut stone door of a cultivation room opened as Luo Li walked out with an elegant demeanor.
"Luo Li, how was it?"
Wen Qingxuan curiously looked at Luo Li. She also wanted to know if the so-called Promotion Pellet was really that miraculous.
But facing her curiosity, Luo Li lightly smiled. "The Promotion Pellet is truly worthy of being the work of the Spirit-Pellet Butterfly Fairy."
Hearing his words, Wen Qingxuan couldn't help feeling even more curious. She wanted to ask more, but Luo Li mysteriously smiled, which made her feel depressed.
Boom!
The other stone door suddenly shattered and Mu Chen's silhouette appeared before everyone.
"Mu Chen, did you succeed?" Wen Qingxuan turned to look at Mu Chen.
Exchanging a look with Luo Li, Mu Chen smiled with his eyes narrowed. "The Spirit-Pellet Butterfly Fairy is truly worthy of her reputation."
Seeing the two of them having the same expression, Wen Qingxuan couldn't help clenching her teeth. The two of them were truly a pair!
However, from their reactions, Wen Qingxuan at least knew that they were very satisfied with the effects of the Promotion Pill.
"Let's go, we'll head to the gathering point!"
Mu Chen did not speak any further. He waved his hand towards everyone and said.
As he spoke, he tapped his foot on the ground and his figure burst forth, turning into a streak of light that flew towards the depths of the Ancient Abyss. Behind him, numerous figures followed closely behind in a vast and majestic manner.
