Monsters appear more frequently on this route, and you may also encounter some unsighted tribulation cultivators, but for Ye Feng today, these are not a problem.
Sure enough, as he passed through a continuous mountain of ice crystals, several malicious auras locked onto him.
"Boy, leave the storage bag and I will spare your life!" Three monks dressed in uniform gray clothes and with cultivation levels around the first and second levels of the Golden Core rushed out from the mountain col, surrounding Ye Feng in a perfect glyph. From the looks of them, they were obviously a group of casual cultivators in the nearby area who specialized in robbing homes and buildings.
Ye Feng was in a hurry and was too lazy to talk nonsense with them. He didn't even take out his sword.
His eyes just turned cold, and an invisible pressure was suddenly released.
This coercion contains the fierce murderous aura that naturally formed after he killed the black evil grandmother of the ninth level of Jindan, as well as a faint aura of the origin of the stars.
The three Tribulation Cultivators were still smiling ferociously, but the moment they came into contact with Ye Feng's pressure, their smiles instantly froze on their faces, as if they were hit hard on the chest by an invisible giant hammer. Their faces suddenly turned pale and their breathing was stagnant.
They felt as if they were being targeted by a ferocious beast from the wild, and the fear originating from the depths of their souls prevented them from even thinking of resisting.
"Get out!" Ye Feng only spat out one word, his voice was not loud, but it sounded like thunder in the ears of the three of them.
Those three Tribulation Cultivators seemed to have been granted amnesty. They rolled around and ran away. They disappeared into the wind and snow in the blink of an eye, not even daring to leave a harsh word behind.
They had only one thought in their minds: They went out today without looking at the almanac, and they unexpectedly provoked such evil stars!
Ye Feng shook his head. These small episodes did not even qualify him to draw his sword. He continued to move forward, and his figure quickly disappeared at the end of the vast snowfield.
A few days later, Ye Feng finally left the scope of the Northern Territory and entered the vast area in the middle of Tianfeng Continent. The climate here is obviously much milder, and the ice and snow have melted away, replaced by lush mountains and plains.
He did not stop at any city, but still traveled under the stars and at night, heading straight towards the Tianji Sect.
Along the way, he also met some sect disciples or casual cultivators, and occasionally heard some rumors about the unusual movements in the Bingxin Valley in the northern region.
"Have you heard? Something big happened in the Ice Heart Valley in the Northern Territory!"
"What big thing? Could it be that another rare treasure has been born in the Wanzai Xuanbing area?"
"It's not just a rare treasure! It is said that the Wanjian Sect and the The Black Evil Sect fought hard in Bingxin Valley, causing heavy casualties! Even the Black Evil Grandma, who was at the ninth level of the Golden Core, died there!"
"What? The Black Evil Grandma is dead? That's a great expert at the ninth level of the Golden Core! Who is so capable?"
"I don't know. There are rumors that it was done by a mysterious young master, and some people said that it was a fight between two major sects, and both sides were hurt..."
When Ye Feng heard these comments, he just smiled lightly and didn't care. For him, all this was a thing of the past, and the most important thing right now was to deliver the Nine Nether Ice Lotus to Su Li as soon as possible.
As he got closer and closer to Tianji Sect, Ye Feng's mood became inexplicably lighter.
Although he has a bit of a "salted fish" personality and doesn't like to be bound by sect rules, Tianji Sect is after all the place where he grew up. There are teachers he respects, classmates he cares about, and...that beautiful figure.
Two days later, a familiar outline of a majestic mountain range appeared on the horizon.
"I'm finally back." Ye Feng breathed a sigh of relief, with a long-lost smile on his face.
……
The mountain gate of Tianji Sect is majestic and shrouded in clouds and mist.
Two disciples guarding the mountain were leaning on the mountain gate stone tablet in boredom, discussing several recent major events in the sect.
"Have you heard? Senior Brother Ye Feng actually went to the extremely cold place in the Northern Territory to find the Nine Nether Ice Lotus for Senior Sister Su Li!"
"Hey, who doesn't know that Senior Sister Su Li is the two most beautiful girls of our Tianji Sect, and Senior Brother Ye's move is really...hehe, it's just that in the extremely cold place in the Northern Territory, there is a narrow escape from death..."
"Isn't that right? It is said that people from the Wanjian Sect and the Black Evil Sect are also active in the Northern Territory. Senior Brother Ye's trip may be very unlucky."
"Shh, lower your voice, you can't say this nonsense. But , Senior Brother Ye’s strength is also unfathomable, back in the sect competition..."
The two of them were talking enthusiastically, when a sword light roared from the distant sky, and in an instant they were in front of the mountain gate.
The sword light faded away, revealing a tall figure, it was Ye Feng.
Compared with when he left, Ye Feng's aura at this moment is more restrained and deep. On the contrary, because of the Northern Territory group, he has gained a bit more iron-blooded killing aura.
His clothes were slightly torn and stained with wind and frost. It was obvious that he had been walking fast without stopping for a moment.
"Senior brother Ye...Senior Brother Ye?" A disciple guarding the mountain rubbed his eyes, somewhat in disbelief.
Another disciple even exclaimed: "It's really Senior Brother Ye! You...you're back!"
Ye Feng nodded slightly, without much emotion on his face, and just asked lightly: "Where is Junior Sister Su Li now?" He asked in a calm voice.
"Senior Sister Su Li... is still in Elder Xuan Shuang's cave." A disciple quickly replied, pointing to a mist-shrouded mountain peak deep in the sect.
Ye Feng said "Thank you", and with a sway, he turned into a stream of light and shot straight towards the cave of Elder Xuan Shuang. The speed was so fast that the two disciples guarding the mountain were stunned.
"Seeing how anxious Senior Brother Ye is, he must have found the Nine Nether Ice Lotus! Senior Sister Su Li is saved!"
Outside Elder Xuan Shuang's cave, Ye fell in front of the cave door.
"Disciple Ye Feng, please see Elder Xuan Shuang!" Ye Feng said loudly.
A moment later, the stone door of the cave opened slowly. Elder Xuan Shuang was dressed in white, with a frosty face and cold eyes looking at Ye Feng.
"You are back." Elder Xuan Shuang's voice still contained no emotion or anger, "Have you ever obtained the Nine Nether Ice Lotus?"
Ye Feng didn't say much. He turned his palm over, and a crystal clear ice lotus emitting a faint cold light appeared in his palm.
It is Jiuyou Ice Lotus!
The lotus petals are filled with light, containing the majestic breath of life and the coldest ice energy.
Elder Xuan Shuang's eyes, which were originally calm, suddenly burst into light the moment he saw the Nine Nether Ice Lotus.
She appeared in front of Ye Feng in a flash, her eyes fixed on Jiuyou Ice Lotus, and her breathing was slightly short.
"It is indeed the Nine Nether Ice Lotus! And... its appearance is so perfect!" Elder Xuan Shuang stretched out his slightly trembling hand, wanting to touch it, but he hesitated for fear of disturbing this rare treasure of heaven and earth.
She knows very well how dangerous the environment in which the Nine Nether Ice Lotus grows, and how powerful the monsters that guard these artifacts are. Ye Feng was able to bring him back, and the dangers he experienced were self-evident.
"Thank you for your hard work, the Northern Territory team." Elder Xuan Shuang looked at Ye Feng and said.
Ye Feng shook his head: "It's hard work for Senior Sister Su Li. Please use this lotus to heal Junior Sister Su Li's wounds as soon as possible."
Elder Xuan Shuang nodded, his expression became solemn: "Follow me."
