Chapter 282 - Cold Jade
Chapter 282 – Cold Jade
Although everything went smoothly under Yang Junshan’s lead, they still saw a few cultivators that were frozen to death along the way. Most of these people were in the process of finding a way out, and because their bodies could not withstand the cold, they lost their lives.
The entire Cold Wind Great Array had many paths, but there was only one way out. No one knew just how many people died in this place that no one knew.
“Do you have any gains from this Cold Wind formation?”
Seeing that no one spoke a word and only hurried on their way, Qu Feng couldn’t bear the atmosphere and couldn’t help but ask.
Zhang Yueming raised an eyebrow, and laughed: “Could it be that Brother Qu, you still have something to gain from this?
Hearing this, Qu Feng smiled complacently. “To be honest, when I was walking around in the formation before, I really did find three Icicle Grass and even found two pieces of Icy Soul Jades!”
“Icicle Grass?” Zhang Yueming looked surprised, and said: “Brother Qu is truly lucky, the Icicle Grass is not a 100 year old cold land, hmm, so that means that the Icy Grand Formation is suitable for growth, and is a necessary item for refining high quality Icy Crystal Spirit Pills. This pill is a Martial Realm Cultivator that cultivates an Icy Attribute cultivation technique, when your cultivation reaches the fifth stage of cultivation, foreasure to break through to the realms of life, it can be considered to be half a treasure!”
Qu Feng laughed and said, “I know you are Heaven-Shaken Sect’s genius alchemist of recent years. How is it? Do you want these three stalks of Ice Ling Grass?”
Zhang Yueming laughed and asked: “Then Brother Qu, what do you want then?”
Qu Feng stretched out a finger and said, “Clear Spirit Pill, I only want one.”
“So it turns out that Brother Qu’s cultivation has already touched the bottleneck of the late stage of martial arts realm!”
Yang Junshan seemed to have understood and continued to speak: “Three stalks of Icicle Grass for one Pure Spirit Pill is also worth the price. If both of us leave this time, Brother Qu can go to Shatian Village to find me and I will prepare one for Brother Qu!”
Although Yang Junshan did not know how to refine pills, he had a certain level of understanding towards pills. The Pure Spirit Pill might not be as good as the most top-grade Frigid Crystal Pill, but it was still considered to be an extremely difficult pill to refine amongst the Spirit Stage pills. The fact that Zhang Yueming was able to refine the Spirit Cleansing Pill was beyond Yang Junshan’s expectations once again.
Although Yang Junshan was surprised by Zhang Yueming’s pill refining skills, he was more interested in the two pieces of Ice Soul Cold Jade that Qu Feng had found.
“Where did Brother Qu find these two Ice Soul Cold Jades?”
Qu Feng said, “What, are you interested in these two cold jades? “Brother Yang saved my life, I’ll give these two cold jades to you!”
Qu Feng threw the two cold jades in his hands over. Yang Junshan could only reach out and catch them, and said: “Brother Qu is mistaken, I just want to ask where this cold jade came from. I have already walked through more than half of the Ice Cold Jade and I also have some guesses about this formation.
Hearing this, Qu Feng slapped his thigh and said loudly, “I said, these two cold jades were originally found at the place where you saved me, Brother Yang. But the moment I dug these two cold jades out from the ice beneath my feet, the surrounding ice and snow turned into ice cones and shot over from all directions. If it wasn’t for Brother Yang pulling me out, I probably would have turned into a blood gourd!”
Qu Feng paused before continuing, “However, Brother Yang, how did you find me? The place you pulled me out was clearly an ice wall!”
Yang Junshan laughed, then asked: “Brother Yang, according to what this Brother Qu said, if we were to find all the Frozen Soul Cold Jade used in the formation, wouldn’t the formation be broken?”
Yang Junshan shook his head and laughed: “How could it be that simple? Not everyone can have as much luck as this Brother Qu.”
Zhang Yueming knew that he had said something stupid to array masters, so he smiled apologetically, and heard Yang Junshan say: “The exit is right in front, no one knows what kind of situation is going on outside, so everyone can only pray for yourself!”
In these past few days, just how many cultivators had entered the cave and how many had broken through the three formations? No one knew.
Among these people were the cultivators of Tan Xi Sect, the cultivators of Heaven-Shaken Sect, the cultivators of Opening Spirit School, the various families in the neighboring counties, and many other people who had rushed over upon hearing the news. No one knew what was waiting for them outside the array.
Even if Zhang Yueming and the others were confident that they could pass the Cold Wind Great Formation with their late stage martial arts realm, they were not confident that their senior brothers would have the absolute advantage.
Furthermore, the other senior brothers in the sect might not all have the same intention. Zhang Yueming glanced at Yang Tianchen, who was staggering and following behind him. At least Yang Junshan’s fourth uncle, the direct grandson of Spiritual Master Wang from the Chenyu County, Senior Brother Wang Yuan, was not the same as Senior Brother Liu and Senior Brother Zhou.
Although this Yang Junshan did not seem to be on good terms with his uncle, his blood was thicker than water. At that time, if they were on the side of Senior Brother Wang Yuan and the others, with his identity as an array master, Senior Brother Wang Yuan’s group’s strength would definitely increase greatly.
Just as Zhang Yueming was considering his gains and losses in his heart, as Yang Junshan took a step forward, the scenery in front of them changed greatly. They had long gotten used to the extreme coldness of the passage, and were suddenly blown by the gentle breeze, making them feel a kind of scorching heat.
“Oh, no small number of people have barged in this time, and they are all baleful qi cultivators!”
Yang Junshan and the rest’s current facial hair, beard, and eyebrows were all hung with ice bars. All of their faces were so cold that they were green, and no one could see their faces for a moment.
Seven or eight cultivators with different temperaments stood around the exit, faintly surrounding the exit. The aura surging from their bodies indicated that they were at the late stage of martial arts realm. The person who spoke was one of them.
Everyone was startled, but Yang Tianchen, who was behind them, suddenly stumbled out, as he ran, he shouted to the cultivator in front of them: “It’s me, Brother Wu, it’s me, Yang Tianchen!”
“Huh?” Hearing that, a short muscular cultivator looked over carefully, and asked curiously: “It really is Lao Yang, you did not leave the cave, and actually passed the Cold Wind Great Formation?”
“Yes, yes,” Yang Tianchen hurriedly said. “Where is my brother-in-law?
When the cultivator heard Yang Tianchen’s order, he instantly became displeased, and coldly snorted at the people around him: “Since that’s the case, Old Wu, I will be leaving first!”
Even though Yang Junshan was angry, he could not help but heave a sigh of relief. If Yang Tianchen really remembered his nephew, Yang Junshan would not know what to do.
“Eh, it’s Junior Zhang?” A voice sounded.
After the formation coat was removed, the people’s cultivation was immediately removed, the frost on their bodies naturally melted. As this term’s strongest true disciple, Zhang Yueming was naturally a famous person in the Heaven-Shaken Sect, and quite a number of people knew him.
Zhang Yueming looked up and laughed: “So Senior Brother Zhou is here. May I know where the other Senior Brothers are?”
However, Yang Junshan recognized the Heaven-Shaken Sect cultivator that was walking over. Previously, when the field s were in the market, when he was in conflict with the Xiong Family cultivators, he was among the people that helped Liu Zhifei.
When Senior Brother Zhou saw Yang Junshan, he was startled, but his expression immediately lit up, and said: “Isn’t this Senior Brother Liu’s subordinate, Xiao Yang? I never thought you would also come in, how about it, come with me to meet Senior Brother Liu. Senior Brother Liu has always been complaining about not bringing you in, if he knew that you entered, he would be extremely happy!”
Although Yang Junshan had some understanding of formations, he was not arrogant enough to think that he could take all the treasures in a realms of life formation master’s cave by himself. Most of the people who could enter through the Cold Wind Great Formation were late stage cultivators, and any one of these people could be considered a strong opponent if they wanted to make things difficult for him.
Yang Junshan laughed: “So Senior Brother Liu was there too, that’s really great!”
Zhang Yueming also said: “With Brother Yang’s help, we are bound to be like tigers adding wings!”
Zhang Yueming, his brother and the two companions followed Senior Brother Zhou and were about to leave when Qu Feng suddenly became anxious and hurriedly said: “Brother Yang, Brother Yang!”
Senior Brother Zhou glanced at him in surprise, then looked at Yang Junshan.
Yang Junshan laughed and introduced him to Senior Brother Zhou: “This is Qu Feng, a disciple of the Great Yu County’s Qu family. This trip to Mengyu County coincided with the birth of the cave, so I also came in to explore.
Brother Zhou muttered to himself, and seeing that Zhang Yueming also nodded his head slightly, he laughed: “Jia Yu Qu Clan’s ancestors are also from the Heaven-Shaken Sect, and currently, there are a few people in the Qu Clan that are part of our sect. Since Brother Qu has entered, then please follow us!”
Hearing this, Qu Feng was overjoyed and hurriedly followed. Senior Zhou clasped his hands at the cultivators around him and led them away.
In less than a cup of tea’s time after Yang Junshan and the rest left, a few cultivators dressed in Heaven-Shaken Sect robes rushed over. Seeing that there was no one at the exit, he immediately asked the few cultivators who were still guarding the exit: “Everyone, where are the few people that just exited?”
A vicious looking cultivator wearing an animal skin coat snorted upon hearing this and spat on the ground: “Your Heaven-Shaken Sect people are so f * cking weird. After you guys took them away, they came to ask us!”
“Yang Tianchen, this useless trash!”
When the Heaven-Shaken Sect cultivator that had rushed over heard this, he cursed in a low voice and turned to leave. The beast skin cultivator behind him said something and suddenly, a wave of laughter resounded.
