Chapter 1490: Chapter 1490: Cold Ice Flame
After nearly another year, Qi Wen and the others also arrived at the barrier.
Qi Hao and Qi Xuan gritted their teeth and caught up with their sister at the bottom of the pool.
Their slow pace was primarily because they were also cultivating their Divine Sense.
When the three of them emerged, the following father and sons finally felt relieved.
"Now it’s fine," Qi Wen said with a smile.
The vestment robes wasted quite a few sets, but it was truly worth it.
When the group emerged from the Thunder Pool, the cultivators outside simply watched them leaving.
Immediately, others followed into the Thunder Pool. They insisted on persevering since the others had come twice already.
They smoothly exited the desert, "Master, let’s go find the Abnormal Fire."
Mu Tian nodded with a smile. "Sure, let’s go. I’ll take you there, but it will depend on your own abilities."
"Master, don’t worry. As long as it’s something good, I want to obtain the Divine Skill."
"Go to the Ice Mountain for the Cold Ice Flame. I discovered it in my youth and haven’t heard of anyone obtaining it. You have a Water Spirit Root, give it a try."
"Alright. Is there an Abnormal Fire suitable for my older brothers?"
"I don’t know about the Fire Spirit Root, but I know one for the Wood Spirit Root. However, it’s quite far away."
Qi Yan shook his head, "I don’t need Abnormal Fire." He won’t practice Alchemy or Artifact Refining, so what’s the use of having Abnormal Fire?
Moreover, Thunder Fire is something he’s sure to encounter during Nascent Soul Formation. If he wants it, he can collect it then.
Qi Hong was quite pleased to hear there was Abnormal Fire suitable for the Wood Spirit Root.
He didn’t want to use his own Elixir Fire. Using Abnormal Fire was most suitable.
Mu Tian released his Flying Artifact.
"Master, are you intending for everyone to know you’ve come out?"
Mu Tian put away his Spirit Boat. Zhu Huai’en took out his Flying Boat, "No one knows this Flying Boat, and it’s fast."
"Master, you didn’t plan to return, did you?" Qi Wen asked the master.
"After taking you to get the Abnormal Fire, we need to go back. We can’t leave the sect for too long."
The family boarded the Flying Boat. "Senior brother, this is quite luxurious."
"I’ll give it to you."
Qi Wen hurriedly waved her hand, "I’d rather not. I can’t accept without merit."
Zhu Huai’en didn’t say anything further. The two Great Powers were in a rush, so they didn’t make any stops along the way.
The speed of the Cloud-piercing Boat was really impressive. The family lived well on the Flying Boat. Each cultivated, and Su Yuanyuan prepared meals for the children. Although it was just spirit rice porridge, this was what normal life felt like.
Qi Wen was currently engraving array plates. Although she had already formed her core, the array plates she could record were still only at the Third Rank.
After ten days, they arrived at the Snow Mountain.
Under Mu Tian’s directions, the Cloud-piercing Boat headed directly into the Snow Mountain range.
It stopped at an inconspicuous mountain peak.
The group disembarked. Although cultivators were no longer afraid of the cold and heat, they still felt cold once they were outside.
"Master, is it here?"
"Yes, there are good things here. You and your daughter both have Water Spirit Roots; try to see if you can tame the Cold Ice Flame.
It’s a Heaven and Earth Spirit Fire, extremely precious. Although ranked tenth on the Abnormal Fire list, its power isn’t much less than the Chaos Fire. The temperature of this flame cannot be compared to ordinary Abnormal Fires.
In the past, I attempted to tame it and was burned, taking over ten years to recover."
"Master, I definitely won’t miss this good thing."
With someone leading the way, finding it would have been uncertain if seeking it alone.
Mu Tian performed intricate hand gestures, and soon a cave appeared in the mountain. He said proudly, "This is a Forbidden Technique I set during my Divinity Transformation time."
"Master, isn’t that why I’m your disciple? If I were, perhaps my family and loved ones could benefit from it? Don’t you think so, Master?
Your foresight left good things for your disciple."
Mu Tian laughed heartily, "Yes, exactly. All of you remember, in the future, be sure to guard any good things well.
Let’s go, there’s no danger inside."
After they entered, the Forbidden Technique automatically closed. Qi Wen praised again.
There was no danger here. Looking at the items inside, Su Yuanyuan squinted slightly; there were indeed many good things.
She saw a few flower buds swaying in the Cold Pool.
"The Cold Ice Flame is within the flower buds. Try to obtain them."
Qi Hong was very interested in the Spirit Plants here, so he went to one side to collect them.
Su Yuanyuan saw Qi Wen and said, "I’ll go first."
Qi Wen nodded, Tan Shaoting followed behind his wife.
Just now, the long-armed ape had already told her how to collect the Cold Ice Flame. Indeed, this wasn’t the most suitable Spiritual Fire for them; they could collect again if they encountered a more compatible one in the future.
She stood by the Cold Pool, performing intricate hand gestures toward the most vibrant flower bud.
Soon, the lotus-like flower bud opened layer by layer.
When it fully bloomed, a small flame appeared at the center of the flower. It wasn’t red or blue but that translucent blue.
Su Yuanyuan sat cross-legged and set up a Spirit Gathering Array around her before starting to collect the Cold Ice Flame.
Her Divine Sense and Spiritual Power acted together. However, the Cold Ice Flame remained unmoving, still stable there.
Once Su Yuanyuan released her Water Spirit Power, the Cold Ice Flame finally moved, appearing larger than before.
Her Divine Sense soothed it, and she used Water Spirit Power to envelop the Cold Ice Flame. Surprisingly, it showed no sign of resistance.
Now came the crucial step of refining. Su Yuanyuan branded the Cold Ice Flame with her Divine Sense.
Even now, there was no resistance, and everything went smoothly. It took just an hour, with the Cold Ice Flame obediently residing within Su Yuanyuan’s Dantian.
Su Yuanyuan stood up happily, "The Cold Ice Flame now has a Fire Spirit, though still naive. In the future, if there’s a chance to devour other Abnormal Fires, it will surely advance."
"Mom, that was too smooth, wasn’t it?" Qi Wen asked excitedly.
"Because of my Water Spirit Root," Su Yuanyuan explained how to tame the Cold Ice Flame, the formulas and gestures, precautions, and shared her experience with her daughter.
"Got it, Mom. I’ll try too."
Qi Wen, surrounded by her own Spirit Gathering Array, prepared just like her mother, uncertain of how long it would take or how much Spiritual Power it would require.
Following her mother’s instructions, she soon found the Fire Spirit of the Cold Ice Flame. Communicating like with a child, Qi Wen easily tamed it.
Mu Tian smiled from the side, initially planning to instruct them on taming, but didn’t expect them to have their own methods; both mother and daughter tamed the Cold Ice Flame so smoothly.
Now both mother and daughter possessed the Abnormal Fire. There were five flower buds left in the Cold Pool, meaning there were five more Cold Ice Flames here.
After obtaining the Cold Ice Flame, they knew other Spirit Roots couldn’t tame them. They also realized that the lotus could nurture the Cold Ice Flame, so they decided to take the lotus root instead.
