hi Jie, do you truly believe that I will forever be at your mercy" He spoke in a sinister tone."When you reach Qianshe Island, whether it's kneading or flattening will depend on your words as the Cran...“Something seemed strange ahead. Even cultivators of the Qi refinement stage wouldn't be able to get through. Let's go take a look.” 。As the cold intensified, several Qi Refinement cultivators even froze solid and became immobile. They had to be carried away to save their lives. Lü Jǐnróng knew that his idea of using Qi Refinement cultivators to open the way was not feasible. 。“Good too” 。When it comes to reviving the family, we cannot adopt a passive and self-preserving attitude. 。Several other Foundation Establishment cultivators also nodded, shook off the Qi Refining cultivator's ranks, and continued to search forward. 。In fact, after entering the cave of the Cold Mites, I saw a lot of spider eggs, as well as some scattered Ice Crystals and Water Crystals. There were also quite a few medium-grade crystals. 。So even if it's a bit cold, with the threat of spiders cleared now, those who can bear it continue to search nearby. 。“I’ll keep looking ahead, see if there’s anything I want.” 。Lu Xia Tian said 。"Then be careful, and if there's danger, retreat immediately." 。"Lv Feng said worriedly, they were still relying on Lu Xiaitian's Huiguandan to prepare for their entry into the Xuan Yuan Dao Zang later." 。After entering the reef cave leading to Tongtian Lake, Lu Xiaoteng's previous advice had already saved them once. Lü Feng and the other naturally didn't want anything bad to happen to Lu Xiaoteng. 。"Rest assured, a Foundation Establishment senior has already gone past, no formidable monster will come out again, it's just a bit cold, if I can't hold on, I'll retreat." 。Lu Xia Tian made a gesture with his hand and walked forward directly. 。Lu Feng thought about it, and said, that's right. A few foundation-building cultivators had just passed through here. If there was danger, they wouldn't have failed to notice. Lu Xiaoteng had taken a fire-type spirit pill, which could make him more resistant to the cold. There were quite a few spiritual creatures in this den. In the absence of danger, it would naturally be good to harvest more. 。“A high-grade Bing Ling Stone!” Hu Xiaomin followed another four Qi Refining cultivators to the bottom of the spider nest and discovered that not far away was a small, cold pool covering several mu. 。Along the edge of that cold pool, there were dozens of high-grade ice spirit stones scattered about. However, to their astonishment, they discovered that even with their Qi Condensation stage strength and fire element spiritual shield, they couldn't get too close to this cold pool. As for collecting the ice spirit stones, it was completely out of the question. 。"Three feet high, the Blue Frost Sunflower!" "Water Illusion Stone!"Lü Jinhong, Hu Xiaomin's elder brother Hu Bin, and two other middle-aged men from the Lü family all had ecstatic expressions on their faces. 。Of course, another person who showed a hint of surprise was Lu Xia Tian, who had been following behind all along. At this time, he used the斂息術 (Lian Xi Shu) to suppress his aura to the extreme. There were seventeen high-grade Bing Ling Stones by the cold pool, which was also a huge sum for a Qi Refining cultivator, equivalent to seventeen thousand low-grade spirit stones. 。And that three-foot-tall Qingxiang sunflower probably dates back over a thousand years. It can be used to refine the Qingxiang Longgui Pill, which not only heals the physical body but is even more effective in healing the soul than the Yingshen Pill. 。For Foundation Establishment cultivators, consuming this pill still has a certain chance of greatly increasing their cultivation. 。

Even a Jindan cultivator is still healing with a holy elixir.

However, it also has certain drawbacks. Although this elixir is very effective, its main effect is only felt upon the first use. 。The second time I took it, the effects were significantly reduced. 。not even as good as some common pain relievers 。

Other ice-type spirit beasts are also very valuable, no wonder a few people are a little overwhelmed.

Lu Xia Tian thought to himself. 。It's just that the Fire Dragon Scale Armor he wore instinctively had a good defense against the cold. Even from so far away, he could still feel the chill here. According to Lü Feng's introduction, the leader, middle-aged man Lü Jīnróng, and Hu Bin of the Hu family were both cultivators in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment. Although their cultivation level was higher than him, they might not be able to easily approach the edge of the cold pool and collect the spiritual creature. 。Moreover, this cold pool is probably not that simple. Lu Xiaoteng's eyes flickered. The Cold Mantaray spider prefers the cold and chooses this as its nest. Along the way, there are quite a few spider eggs everywhere, but near the cold pool, there isn't even one spider egg to be seen, nor any trace of the Cold Mantaray spider's activity. 。Those high-level frostbite spiders were equally formidable, the only explanation being that there were even more troublesome monsters in this cold pool, preventing the frostbite spiders from getting too close. 。When Lü Jinyong started to circulate his magic power with all his might to resist the cold from approaching the three-foot-tall Qing Shuang Gui, a sudden change occurred... 。A faint, almost imperceptible wisp emerged from the icy pool and leaped into the air. 。Lü Jinyong was startled and drew his sword towards the phantom, but it only flickered before vanishing. Several low growls, like piercing the void, followed. 。"Big brother, quickly retreat!" The two cultivators from the Lu family behind shouted, they didn't even have time to rescue, Lu Jinrong had already cried out in pain and fallen. 。

Even Lu Xia Tian, who was watching from afar, was shocked. A cultivator in the middle stage of foundation building had fallen in the blink of an eye.

“Big brother!” The two middle-aged cultivators of the Lü family cried out in grief, each commanding their magic weapon to slash at the several phantoms. The Hu siblings also lent a hand, but these phantoms were incredibly fast. 。How many times did the weapon strike an empty space wielded by how many people 。"Ice Bee Scorpion!" When the phantom had stabilized in mid-air, Lu Xiaoteng's heart jolted. No wonder he hadn't noticed Lü Jinhong's death earlier. At this time, that fist-sized ice bee, flapping its wings and hovering in the air, was carrying a scorpion tail about a foot long. 。The tail end is a crystal-clear needle. 。These three ice bees are not very strong, even weaker than Lv Jinhong. However, at the edge of Hantan, Lv Jinhong had to use most of his mana to resist the cold air from entering his body. 。The potential of the former is limited, while the ice scorpion thrives in such an environment. 。Lu Xia Tian secretly thought that if he went himself, the result probably wouldn't be much better. 。The three ice scorpion bees were incredibly fast, and the ice needles on their tails could even pierce through protective shields. 。"Sister!" Hu Bin roared, slashing at the Ice Scorpion with his sword. But the Ice Scorpion stopped right on top of Hu Xiaomin's neck. Hu Bin hesitated for a moment, but it was too late - the Ice Scorpion's tail had already stung Hu Xiaomin in the belly. 。In an instant, Hu Xiaomin's head was covered with a thick layer of ice crystals. 。The whole person powerless fell to the ground. 。The ice scorpion was too fast. With them having to focus on resisting the cold and maneuvering their weapons, they simply couldn't strike the ice scorpion. Their speed paled in comparison, and even trying to escape wasn't easy. 。"My leg!" A cultivator from the Lü family cried out, his speed abruptly slowing down, and then he was stung by another ice scorpion. 。He died shortly after, stiff as a board. 。

Flee! At this time, Hu Bin and the only remaining Lü family cultivator were terrified, with no desire whatsoever to stay behind to collect any treasures.

The only thought was to escape this cursed place as soon as possible. 。However, the three ice bees scorpions would not allow these intruders to leave. 。Hu Bin and the Lu family cultivator were one after the other, seeing that both of them were about to be caught up by the other party. Suddenly, Hu Bin slapped the Lu family cultivator in the chest with his backhand. The Lu family cultivator, who was knocked back in pain, glared angrily, but his anger did not last long before he was stung by the ice scorpion and fell to the ground. 。He was rather sinister, Lu Xia Tian sneered. Even among allied families' cultivators, when life and death were at stake, they would choose what benefited them most, even sacrificing others' lives for it. 。These ice bees are not to be trifled with. The opponent is terrifying, not just because of its speed, but also because of the horrifying cold poison that may be contained in those icy needles. Otherwise, several foundation-building cultivators who were pierced wouldn't have died so quickly. 。Five Foundation Establishment cultivators, only Hu Bin managed to escape. However, it wasn't certain if he had truly escaped safely. If this Hu Bin were to get away, the news of Qing Shuang Kui would soon spread.Lu Xia Tian was hesitating when to make his move, and Hu Bin, who had already escaped, also saw him. In this moment of crisis, Hu Bin didn't have time to think about how a Qi Refining cultivator like Lu Xia Tian could enter such a cold place and be chased by several Ice Bee Scorpions. He simply sneered, reaching out towards Lu Xia Tian with an empty grab, intending to throw him to the Ice Bee Scorpions chasing behind him. 。Although the ice scorpion was faster, Hu Bin felt there was still a chance of escaping as there were plenty of cultivators who could act as shields in the back. 。Lu Xiaodong's body was sucked up as expected, but soon, a monstrous aura that shook the sky made Hu Bin widen his eyes. 。A fiery crimson longsword shot out from Lu Xia Tian's hand, its power far surpassing that of an ordinary magic weapon. Even in the hands of the patriarch, Hu Bin had never seen a weapon with such astonishing aura. 。“The Dan Yuan Artifact!” Hu Bin said with difficulty, the Zhiyan Lihuo Sword had already transformed into a streak of fire that swept past his throat. 。He never would have expected that this seemingly ordinary Qi Refining cultivator before him was actually a Foundation Establishment cultivator, and in his hand, he even held a Dan Yuan magic weapon. 。There were only about thirty foundation-building cultivators from the three families, and he knew them all. How could he have expected a lone cultivator to slip in 。With a multitude of questions swirling in his mind, Hu Bin's consciousness blurred. The fiery spiritual energy unleashed by the Blazing Inferno Sword burned away his very soul, plunging him into an eternal darkness. What exactly was the other party's intention 。Lu Xia Tian didn't hesitate at all, throwing Hu Bin's corpse towards the ice-scorpion bees that were flying toward him. 。Although he had fire dragon scales armor, his defense was far superior to dead Lü Jinyong and several other foundation-building cultivators. However, even the fire hidden scale armor had its weaknesses, and he didn't want to test the might of a few ice scorpions with his own body. 。After throwing Hu Bin's body out, he quickly retreated. 。

A few ice scorpion did not show any interest in Hu Bin's body, and their bodies flashed away. As for Lu Xiaoteng who also escaped, the few intelligent ice scorpions hesitated a little. They could feel the breath of many human monks far away, and they were simply inexhaustible. The red long sword in this person's hand just now gave them unprecedented threat. The scorching heat that cut through everything made the ice scorpion instinctively resist.

After circling for a while, several ice-scorpions retreated back into the cold pond. 。Although the Ice-Scorpion had retreated, Lu Xiaottian was not willing to give up his plans just like that. He was very interested in the seventeen top-grade Bingling Stones by the cold pool, as well as the Qingxiang Gui and the five Foundation Establishment cultivators' storage pouches. 。Horses grow fat without a night of rest, people grow rich without an unjust fortune. 。He needed a number of times more pills to raise his cultivation than ordinary cultivators, and the spirit herbs used to refine these pills all had to be ripened with spirit stones. 。Although we are not short of Spirit Stones at the moment, it's natural to accumulate more whenever possible. 。

But the few Ice Scorpion Bees in the Cold Pond were exceptionally troublesome. Going alone, even with the Fiery Blazing Sword in his hand, he didn't have much chance of winning. These Ice Scorpion Bees were too strange

After a long while, Lu Xia Tian's eyes lit up. He brought out the centipede puppet and had it use its mouth to bite on the piece of 2000-year-old cold iron wood. The two rows of centipede feet moved quickly, first grabbing back the storage bag of the cultivator who had been killed by Lu Xia Tian recently. 。Then Lu Xia Tian again controlled it to quickly arrive at the edge of the cold pool. As the centipede puppet approached the cold pool, three ice scorpions angrily charged out again. 。Although the Centipede Puppet's speed wasn't slow, it was significantly slower than the Ice Beescorpions. Soon, the Centipede Puppet was stung several times by three Ice Beescorpions. Even two Ice Beescorpions landed on the Centipede Puppet's back and attacked fiercely. 。

Lu Xia Tian, who controlled the centipede puppet with his deputy soul, smiled. The terrifying thing about this ice bee scorpion, besides its terrifying speed, was the needle on its scorpion tail. It could break through a cultivator's protective spirit shield and most protective artifacts.

If a human cultivator is stung by it, they will be poisoned by its cold toxin. Their magical power and blood will stop circulating throughout their body, and they will perish in a very short time. This is how several Foundation Establishment cultivators, including Lü Jīnróng, died before. 。Even though Lu Xia Tian was wearing the Fire Jiao Scale Armor, he didn't dare to get close easily because his head wasn't within the protection range of the armor. If he were stung, there would be no salvation. 。But the centipede puppet is different. This puppet is not made of flesh and blood, so even if it is stung, it will not be affected by the cold poison of the ice scorpion's tail needle. Even if it suffers some damage, it will not be as fatal as a human cultivator. The centipede puppet is controlled by a high-grade spirit stone. As long as the high-grade spirit stone does not run out or its head and important areas are not destroyed, being stung a few times in other places is not fatal at all. 。

The ice scorpion's intelligence is very high. The two landed on the back of the centipede puppet. One had already begun to attack the head of the centipede puppet, but the ice scorpion's attack power is not very powerful and will not produce a destructive explosion or anything similar. It's also not known for its strength.

...that single tail needle was unusually domineering... 。Lu Xia Tian calmly controlled the centipede puppet, using this piece of cold iron wood, which even a Golden Core cultivator would find difficult to destroy after two thousand years, to block the vital area on its head. 。After stinging several times, the ice scorpions found that this piece of cold iron wood was completely unaffected. Several ice scorpions were frustrated and circled the centipede puppet for a while, looking rather like dogs biting hedgehogs with no way to get in. 。Lu Xiaotian chuckled. The centipede puppet swaggered triumphantly, stripping all seventeen rare high-grade Bingling Stones from the edge of the cold pool, along with the three-foot-tall Qing霜葵, some valuable ice-type spirit herbs, and the storage bags of the four cultivators. Then it ambled back leisurely. 。

Three ice bees chased for a short distance, but finding that they were helpless against the centipede puppet, they could only fly back to the cold pool in great agitation.

He really made a profit, Lu Xia Tian sent all these gains into the barrier, and he was also quite happy. 。other vast expanse, even Lu Xiaoteng felt himself within this space. Then there was a distinct feeling of being repelled by the other side.>Since entering the Tian Sang Wasteland, Lu Xiaoteng has enco...
