Chapter 3860 Preparation for the Journey Ahead
It took Xiao Yi three hours to refine the Milk of the Earth's Core. These three hours were because of the small tree on the stone platform, which had already done the work in advance, and Xiao Yi finally became the beneficiary.
But Xue Yaoyue's speed was so fast that it was unbelievable. The gap between people can be made up by acquired efforts, but the gap in talent is insurmountable.
"I can't believe your refining speed. What level have you cultivated to in the Ao Han Jiu Jue I gave you before?"
"It was the fifth level before. After refining the Milk of the Earth's Core, it should be the sixth level now. I have a hunch that the seventh level will soon be reached."
"Sixth...sixth level, my master is right, don't compare your talent with people like you, you will be angry to death sooner or later."
Xiao Yi taught Xue Yaoyue to cultivate Taoism and practice. It took less than three months before and after that, and he practiced the Ao Han Jiu Jue to the sixth level.
As long as Xue Yaoyue practices to the ninth level, her strength will be almost the same as Xiao Yi. With her amazing talent, she can complete a transformation of the Ao Han Jiu Jue, and the skills at that time will also rise to a higher level.
"I didn't think I was that fast, but since I practiced the Nine Cold Techniques, I can control the coldness in my body very well."
"Speaking of coldness, I almost forgot that I have a surprise for you."
After opening the space ring, a piece of ten thousand year old ice appeared in Xiao Yi's hand, and this was also one of the fragments.
Such a fragment was nearly twice as big as the one Xiao Yi got at the auction before. The white-haired old man placed the hope of their people on Xiao Yi, and even entrusted such an important holy object to Xiao Yi for safekeeping.
As soon as the ten thousand year old ice appeared, the coldness that burst out suddenly lowered the temperature of the entire room to below zero. The water in the cup on the table froze. You can imagine how terrible this coldness is.
"Xiao Yi, you...how did you get it? This ten thousand year old ice is bigger than the one in my body."
Two cold rays bloomed in the depths of Xue Yaoyue's eyes. The appearance of the ten thousand year old ice triggered the resonance of the fragments in her body.
The walls and objects in the room were covered with a layer of frost. The frost was spreading rapidly and was about to spread out of the room. Xiao Yi handed the ice fragment to Xue Yaoyue.
"An old man entrusted it to me. He said that this thing was originally a whole, but it became fragments because of an accident. He hoped that I could help him and collect all the fragments."
Xiao Yi said truthfully. Hearing what he said, a vague voice appeared in the depths of Xue Yaoyue's mind, as if she thought of something, but every time she thought about it carefully, she couldn't remember what it was.
Holding the ice fragment in her hand, it was so familiar, as if it originally belonged to her. When her fingers touched it, the ten thousand year ice bloomed with a brilliant blue light, reflecting the whole room in blue.
The fragment gradually shrank in her hand until it finally merged into Xue Yaoyue's body. The pressing cold air disappeared without a trace at this moment. After practicing the Nine Art of Ao Han, Xue Yaoyue could perfectly control the cold air.
This large fragment is now merging with the previous fragments in Xue Yaoyue's body. It will only take a while for the fragments to combine into a whole. Xue Yaoyue doesn't understand why she has such an ability.
"Thank you, Xiao Yi. I don't know what to say."
"Then don't say it. If you say such polite words to me, it will make us look so strange."
Xiao Yi originally collected ice fragments for Xue Yaoyue. As long as it can make Xue Yaoyue stronger, he is willing to pay more.
Before, Xiao Yi flipped through several books on the table and noticed a message on it, which attracted Xiao Yi's attention.
He found a map in the cave of Poxiao Villa. The map was marked with special characters. Fortunately, the third elder was knowledgeable and translated the meaning of these characters.
Only then did he know that the place name marked on it was in Kunlun Mountain. This time he had time, so he planned to go there in person to explore what secrets there were and what the special mark on that location meant.
"Xiao Yi, are you going to Kunlun Mountain?"
After telling Xue Yaoyue about her thoughts, Xue Yaoyue confirmed again that she didn't understand why Xiao Yi was going to this place.
In Chinese culture, Kunlun Mountain is shrouded in a mysterious veil. Many myths and legends are closely related to this place, and Xue Yaoyue knows a lot of them.
"Yes, to be precise, we are going to a place, and this place is in Kunlun Mountain."
"It's like an adventure."
In order to confirm that there is no error in the information, Xiao Yi took out the map again and asked Xue Yaoyue to verify it.
This is an old map, but the drawing technique is very clever. Xue Yaoyue also found it very strange that Xiao Yi always gets some weird things.
The first thing she saw was to confirm that this place was on Kunlun Mountain. Just to make sure there was no mistake, she turned on the computer and scanned this map and mapped it on the satellite map.
Through a large amount of data comparison, even if the river channel on it has changed, it will be recorded in the information data of the computer, and the final inference will be converted into a modern satellite map.
"It seems that what your sister said is correct. This place is definitely on Mount Kunlun."
Xue Yaoyue showed Xiao Yi the last converted satellite map, which clearly marked the names and routes of each place.
However, when they reached the depths of Kunlun Mountain, the road markings disappeared, because even vehicles could not pass in the depths of Kunlun Mountain, let alone people living there.
In places with cold climates, the snow on the top of the mountain never melts all year round. Xiao Yi heard that there was a team in the army that entered Kunlun Mountain for investigation. I don’t know what happened, and eventually everyone disappeared.
"The climate change in Kunlun Mountain is complicated. If there is nothing particularly important, I suggest you wait and see and organize a team to enter the mountain again."
Xue Yaoyue was worried about Xiao Yi's safety. In front of nature, human power seemed so fragile. The place Xiao Yi was going to was in the depths of Kunlun Mountain, where the most accidents had occurred.
"There is not so much time to wait, and this is my own business, and I don’t want to implicate others."
Xiao Yi has already decided that if there is any secret in this place, he must personally explore it, and this kind of thing must be kept secret.
