Chapter 33 Cold Pond Jade Bead

Zhou Yiqiao leaned over to pick up Zhuo Meng's storage bag, a giant sword talisman was played, and the last proof of Zhuo Meng's existence in the world was also destroyed.

He walked to the body of the cold water snake without any wavering in his expression and began to decompose useful materials.

For a monk in the Qi Refining Stage, a monster that has reached the perfect state of Qi refining is full of treasures. If a complete monster is sold, its value can often be exchanged for a magical weapon of the same level.

It's a pity that this cold water snake has long been eroded by the poison of Gelsemium. Zhou Yiqiao carefully picked and picked out, and finally removed a pair of relatively well-preserved forehead scales.

Putting the scales into the storage bag, Zhou Yiqiao looked at the lake that was exuding chills.

"The cold air affecting the entire valley is emanating from this lake. The treasure Liu Yangyan mentioned should be at the bottom of the lake."

Thinking in his mind, he sat cross-legged by the lake and slowly restored his spiritual power.

An hour later, Zhou Yiqiao opened his eyes, and the spiritual power in his body had been restored to some extent.

Perhaps it was because Zhou Yiqiao had already experienced the feeling of weak spiritual consciousness when the Aoki Armor shattered before, or perhaps because his natural spiritual consciousness was stronger than the same level, so his complexion had returned to rosy.

With his strength restored to 70%, Zhou Yiqiao did not hesitate and jumped into the lake.

The coldness in the lake was many times higher than that on the shore, and the spiritual energy in his body finally felt stagnant.

But the priority at the moment was naturally not practicing the Qi-Refining Technique of Wheel Turning. Zhou Yiqiao protected the aura around him and slowly approached the bottom of the lake.

The water depth of this lake is about fifteen feet, which may be the reason why the huge cold water snake builds its nest here. The space becomes larger as you go to the bottom of the lake, and the cold air emitted by the treasure becomes stronger and stronger.

Zhou Yiqiao gritted his teeth and dived ten feet. The surrounding lake water turned into ice, and it was bitingly cold.

Fortunately, when he was preparing supplies earlier, he bought an extra Diyang Talisman just in case of an accident. He put the Talisman on his chest to withstand part of the cold air before diving down again.

A quarter of an hour later, Zhou Yiqiao finally touched the bottom of the lake.

Due to the influence of the treasure, the bottom of the lake has turned into an icy blue world. The bottom is not silt, but a crystal clear and smooth ice surface.

He looked down from the ice surface and saw many swimming fish and water plants frozen in it, forming a strange and magnificent landscape.

In the place where the water plants are densest, there is a cone-shaped shell the size of two palms lying in it. A blue pearl in the shell is still emitting a blue cold air visible to the naked eye.

After finally seeing the treasure, Zhou Yiqiao felt that the spiritual power in his body was about to be exhausted again, and he no longer hesitated.

He floated up some distance, took out several giant sword talismans, activated them, and shot them onto the ice.

After a rumbling sound, the instant noodles that were originally as smooth as a mirror were already covered with cracks.

Zhou Yiqiao took out the golden silk sword, broke the ice easily, and soon took the blue pearl and the shell in his hand.

The pearl turned out to be as pure white as jade, but the blue luster it exuded caused people to misunderstand the true color of the object.

Zhou Yiqiao put the pearl into the storage bag. In an instant, the surrounding ice melted, and the fish trapped in it began to move again.

Now that the temperature had returned and his activities were no longer restricted, Zhou Yiqiao spent another incense burning searching the bottom of the lake. After confirming that there were no other treasures, he returned to the surface and left the place.

He flew ashore, used his spiritual power to evaporate the water from his body, made sure there was no one around, and used the Cloud Stepping Technique to leave the valley.

There were stops and starts along the way, and it usually took another half a day to arrive. Until the sky started to get dark the next day, Zhou Yiqiao finally returned to Zhulufang City.

After returning to Fangshi, he went straight to Sun Da's residence. Through the concierge's message, he soon met Sun Da who had just walked out of the bedroom with Ji Lifang.

Zhou Yiqiao looked ugly, took out the scales of the cold water snake, threw them in front of Sun Da, and spoke angrily.

"Which casual cultivator gave Senior Brother Sun the information? The Cold Water Snake has clearly reached the point of perfecting its Qi refining. If Junior Brother I had not had an Earth Escape Talisman, I would have perished together with my two colleagues right now!"

After hearing this, Sun Da also knew that this matter was related to the lives of Zhou Yiqiao and several people. After whispering to Ji Lifang to prepare breakfast, he led Zhou Yiqiao to the study room with a serious face.

In the study, Zhou Yiqiao slowly told Sun Da the words he had thought of along the way.

During the conversation, he repeatedly emphasized that the cold water snake was about to break through the foundation. The three of them worked together to only cause slight damage to the cold water snake. After seeing the death of his two companions, he decisively used the earth escape talisman to escape from the valley. middle.

"The demon snake was already able to speak human words when it fought with us. I'm afraid it won't take long before it establishes its foundation and transforms."

"After junior brother escaped from the valley, he saw the figure of the demonic snake flying into the sky and leaving that place."

"With such a terrifying force, that damned casual cultivator actually said that he was in the late stage of Qi refining. He is truly an unpardonable sin!"

Zhou Yiqiao looked angry, 80% because of his hatred for the casual cultivator, and 20% because of his dissatisfaction with Sun Da.

After hearing this, Sun Da felt that Zhou Yiqiao was still in a state of shock, and did not care about his attitude towards him, but instead spoke out to comfort him.

"It's all my fault, senior brother, that I didn't know enough about people. I was deceived by a rogue cultivator who was greedy for profit. For such a bad behavior, senior brother, I will definitely arrest that rogue cultivator and let him do whatever he wants!"

"Now that the matter has come to this, junior brother, don't be angry anymore. Senior brother, I will definitely find a place that meets the conditions for you. When the time comes, senior brother will go with you."

Zhou Yiqiao knew that he had got through, so he stood up and left with a wry smile.

"Senior Brother, please don't do this. Junior Brother was also blinded by anger just now and contradicted Senior Brother. I hope Senior Brother will respect you."

"If something like this happened, if my junior brother still has the thought to refine this elixir, then I don't need to worry about it."

"Junior brother is exhausted both physically and mentally, so I will stop bothering him and leave first."

Seeing this, Sun Da couldn't help but persuade Zhou Yiqiao to stay for dinner. Looking at Zhou Yiqiao's leaving figure, he ordered the servants around him indifferently.

"Go and ask Junior Brother Li from the outer sect to capture the casual cultivator and hand it over to Junior Brother Zhou. Let him kill or hack him at his disposal."

The servant promised in a low voice and quickly left Sun Da's residence.

……

Zhou Yiqiao returned to Xiaoyao Inn and locked himself in the door.

Having seen the scene where the treasure's cold air spread, he did not dare to take it out easily in the inn.

In Zhulufang City, only the alchemy room built in the alchemy workshop has a temperature control array set up to prevent fire.

Zhou Yiqiao possesses a large amount of elixirs. Even if there is no small spirit gathering array to condense spiritual energy in the alchemy room, he does not have to worry about the problem of insufficient spiritual energy during practice.

"It seems that from now on, I will have to stay in the alchemy room for a long time."

He narrowed his eyes slightly and muttered to himself.
