Chapter 1113: Chapter 497: The Three True Inheritors
Fu Chao and Lv Ruoxi naturally had no objections. Their Spirit Root Attributes weren’t compatible, so it was impossible for them to use the "Profound Ice Mushroom" to enhance their Cultivation. Taking it could even be harmful to them.
"Boom!"
Just as the "Profound Ice Mushroom" was taken, the ice platform cracked. As the vibrations settled, the ice layer underground split open revealing a fissure, emitting a faint blue light, and a descending staircase slowly appeared.
"Looks like this is the entrance to the second level."
Li Yunjing nodded slightly, leading the way onto the stairs.
The staircase was built of transparent ice crystals, each step imbued with a chill that seeped into the body.
Descending to the bottom of the stairs, the view ahead suddenly opened up.
Here was a floating ice lake, its waters a deep blue, with giant ice blocks drifting on its surface. Each ice block sealed demon beasts of various forms.
At the center of the ice lake stood an ice tower, its body covered with intricate runes, and its top glowed with a bright blue light, as if something was hidden inside.
Around the ice lake, dozens of larger ice wolves were wandering. Their fur was like frost, eyes crimson, surrounded by black mist, exuding a more terrifying aura than the previous demon beasts.
"These ice wolves almost all have Half-Step Golden Core Realm Cultivation, everyone be careful!"
Li Yunjing’s gaze was like a torch, staring at the ice wolves exuding their terrifying aura, speaking in a low voice.
"Awoooo..."
As soon as he finished speaking, the leading ice wolf raised its head and let out a thunderous howl. In an instant, dozens of ice wolves shot towards the four like arrows from a bowstring.
"Damn it! There are so many demon beasts in this trial!"
Fu Chao cursed, his hands moving rapidly, shouting, "Samadhi True Fire, Blaze Cage!"
"Boom!"
Raging flames instantly rose around the wolf pack, forming a massive ring of fire, temporarily blocking the ice wolves inside.
"Boom!"
With Fu Chao’s assistance, Li Yunjing didn’t hold back, releasing one "Sunflower Divine Thunder" after another, completely obliterating the ice wolves, leaving no remains.
After slaying the ice wolves, the group had no time to rest and flew towards the ice tower in the center of the lake.
Approaching the ice tower, Li Yunjing noticed the runes on its body were glowing mysteriously, as if guarding some secret.
He attempted to inject Spiritual Power into the runes, which suddenly radiated brilliantly, and the door of the ice tower slowly opened.
The four carefully entered the tower, finding the first floor filled with numerous ice caskets.
Each ice casket held a sleeping corpse of unknown origin.
Li Yunjing and the others didn’t linger and continued climbing towards the top of the tower.
When they reached the top, a treasure chest emitting a bright blue glow appeared before them.
Li Yunjing stepped forward and slowly opened the chest, revealing a bright blue Jade Bottle inside.
"Pop!"
Li Yunjing opened the bottle stopper and glanced inside, finding three elixirs.
The elixirs were the size of a dragon’s eye, with nine natural spiral patterns on the surface, interwoven in blue and gold, shining with star-like light spots in the light.
Li Yunjing took one out, holding it in his hand, and saw the elixir automatically absorb the surrounding Spiritual Energy, forming a three-inch green halo.
"Nine Revolutions Profound Spirit Pill!"
Li Yunjing held the elixir to his nose for a sniff, then inspected it closely, seemingly recognizing it.
He looked at Yu Yunyi, Lv Ruoxi, and Fu Chao, smiling, "You’re in luck. There are exactly three ’Nine Revolutions Profound Spirit Pills’ here!"
"Yunjing, what does this elixir do?"
Lv Ruoxi asked curiously.
This elixir, confirmed by Li Yunjing as a "Nine Revolutions Profound Spirit Pill", initially exuded a clear ice-like scent, yet upon closer sniffing, turned into a rich floral fragrance.
This "Nine Revolutions Profound Spirit Pill" was highly regarded by Li Yunjing and truly piqued the curiosity of Yu Yunyi, Lv Ruoxi, and Fu Chao.
After Lv Ruoxi asked, Yu Yunyi and Fu Chao both looked at Li Yunjing, seemingly wanting him to explain about this elixir.
"Legend has it that the ’Nine Revolutions Profound Spirit Pill’ originated in ancient times as the secret formula of the ’Valley of Medicine King’, later becoming incomplete due to wars."
Seeing everyone looking curiously, Li Yunjing chuckled and explained, "This elixir should be an authentic ancient product. The current improved version was reconstructed three thousand years ago by the ’Ancestor of Danxia’ from incomplete fragments, with a pill formation rate of less than thirty percent, thus the Cultivation Realm has a saying, ’A single Profound Spirit Pill is worth half a Spirit Stone mountain’."
"Old Li, how do you know so much!"
Fu Chao, after hearing this, praised him continuously, asking curiously.
"I’ve always encouraged you to read more books, but you never listen! The ’Scripture Pavilion’ contains so many books, recording secrets from the Southern Heaven Continent and even other continents!"
Li Yunjing glared at Fu Chao in annoyance, then looked at Yu Yunyi and Lv Ruoxi, smiling, "In the future, if you have time, go to the ’Scripture Pavilion’ and read more books. It will definitely be beneficial!"
"I see!"
Yu Yunyi, Lv Ruoxi, and Fu Chao suddenly understood, nodding, their minds set on reading more and learning some things when they return.
Otherwise, they wouldn’t seem like "illiterates" in front of Li Yunjing.
In fact, what the three didn’t know was that Li Yunjing’s knowledge didn’t come from ordinary secrets but from the "Alchemy Technique Basics".
This book is not something an average person can afford to exchange.
It requires a large amount of Contribution Points.
"The ’Nine Revolutions Profound Spirit Pill’ is made from the millennium Profound Ice Grass, Gold Line Thunderstrike Wood, and Earth Vein Spirit Milk as the main ingredients, with hundreds of auxiliary materials like Seven-Color Deer Antler Powder, Yue Hua Condensed Dew, and Five Elements Spirit Sand..."
Li Yunjing continued introducing, "This elixir is considered Tier Three, and must be refined with the innate true fire of a Golden Core Cultivator, maintaining ’Samadhi Fire Timing’ throughout, alternating gentle fire, martial fire, and a blend of both, to successfully refine!
