After listening, Qian Renxue's brows gradually relaxed a bit.
"Hurry up and go take a bath," she urged.
...
Early morning, Jiang Chen left the palace feeling refreshed. He brought along Xiao Qing and departed Heaven Dou City.
Outside Heaven Dou City, Yu Tianheng, Dugu Yan, and Ye Lingling were already waiting.
"Teacher."
"Teacher."
"Master."
The three called out at the same time. Yu Tianheng and Dugu Yan called him Teacher, while Ye Lingling called him Master.
At the same time, they also saw the tall, mature, and alluring Xiao Qing standing beside Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen introduced her: "This is a disciple I took in earlier, called Xiao Qing. From now on, you will cultivate together."
"Big Sister Xiao Qing." The three greeted her.
Ye Lingling's expression was somewhat vigilant. Although she had already followed Jiang Chen, she felt that if she could become Jiang Chen's woman, it would provide even greater protection for the Nine Heart Flowering Apple sect.
This suddenly appearing woman gave her a sense of threat.
Jiang Chen then introduced Dugu Yan and the other two to Xiao Qing.
Xiao Qing was very enthusiastic and did not take Ye Lingling's vigilance toward her to heart at all.
To her, this little girl whose body had not yet fully developed posed no threat whatsoever.
"Let's go," Jiang Chen said, immediately taking the lead and heading toward the Sunset Forest.
"Master, where are we going?" Xiao Qing asked curiously.
Jiang Chen felt somewhat helpless. He had previously asked Xiao Qing to call him Teacher from now on.
But the originally obedient Xiao Qing was extremely firm on this matter of address and still insisted on calling him Master.
"We are going to the Sunset Forest. There is a miraculous place there that can allow you to gain ice and fire immunity."
Ice and fire immunity?
Xiao Qing and the other four were startled, then immediately became excited.
Attribute immunity was an extremely rare and precious ability.
Moreover, it was immune to two common attributes: ice and fire.
Now, each of them already possessed terrible resistance to deadly poison.
Yu Tianheng even had an additional lightning resistance.
If they added ice and fire immunity on top of that, it would be enough to greatly boost their strength.
In the Soul Master competition, they could completely ignore energy attacks from ice or fire attribute soul masters.
"Does the Sunset Forest actually have such a miraculous place?" Yu Tianheng couldn't help asking.
The Sunset Forest was not far from Heaven Dou City, and students of the Imperial Academy usually obtained their soul rings there.
Yu Tianheng and Dugu Yan had entered it many times before.
"Yanyan, that place is where your grandfather used to cultivate often."
Dugu Yan was somewhat surprised. She had never been there before.
It was only that time when Jiang Chen bit her in the Sunset Forest that she learned her grandfather had such a place.
"Master, the Sunset Forest has ten-thousand-year soul beasts inside," Ye Lingling reminded him in a low voice.
She had followed Jiang Chen for the shortest time and felt her presence was somewhat weak.
Jiang Chen said: "Your Big Sister Xiao Qing is a sixty-seventh-level Soul Emperor, but her actual combat strength has already reached Soul Saint. With me as well, there won't be any accidents."
"I'll take you there to familiarize yourselves with it. After that, you can go by yourselves. The ten-thousand-year soul beasts in the Sunset Forest aren't too high in age. The four of you working together shouldn't have any problems."
Several hours later, they arrived above the valley where the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye was located.
"The Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye is right below. I'll go down first and wait for you. Come down on your own."
With that, he jumped downward, his figure quickly disappearing into the thick white mist.
Xiao Qing and the others observed for a moment. After confirming the cliff could be climbed down, they began to move.
Xiao Qing took the lead, climbing down while sticking close to the cliff wall.
Ye Lingling looked at the valley of unknown depth and couldn't help feeling fear in her heart.
She was only a healing-type soul master. Even though her strength had greatly increased after becoming a zombie, climbing a sheer cliff was still extremely dangerous for her.
Dugu Yan noticed Ye Lingling's difficulty and immediately comforted her: "We'll go down first, then have Teacher come up to get you."
Neither she, Yu Tianheng, nor Xiao Qing could easily climb down while carrying someone.
Only Jiang Chen, who had the ability to fly, could come up to pick her up.
Ye Lingling nodded and watched as Dugu Yan and the others climbed down.
Suddenly, her expression became resolute as she walked toward the edge of the cliff.
Jiang Chen had already said he would not accompany them in the future, which meant she could only rely on herself from now on.
Therefore, she had to learn to face this cliff herself.
Standing at the edge of the cliff, she took several deep breaths, suppressed the fear in her heart, and began climbing down with trembling hands and feet.
A healing soul master climbing a cliff, this was something she had never even dared to imagine before.
Although her strength had increased, her control over her body was far inferior to that of the combat soul masters.
She could be said to have strength but no technique at all...
...
Jiang Chen reached the bottom of the valley and saw an elder he had met a few times before.
Guarding here was a hard duty. The Spirit Hall would regularly arrange for elders to rotate shifts.
Every once in a while, some alchemists would also come to gather herbs.
At the bottom of the valley, several thatched huts had been built near the edge of the cliff.
"So it is His Highness the Holy Son." This elder enthusiastically came forward to greet him.
Jiang Chen also warmly exchanged pleasantries, which pleased the elder quite a bit.
"Elder, I plan to have a few of my subordinates come here to cultivate for a while. In the future, I will need the elder to look after them a bit," Jiang Chen said in a rather polite tone.
"No problem, no problem," the elder stroked his beard, very readily agreeing.
He glanced upward and sensed several people climbing down.
Jiang Chen turned around, his gaze directed toward the miraculous Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye.
He did not know the plot of the later parts of Douluo Continent, so he was not clear about the origins of this Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye.
Ever since he had come down, this Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye had been constantly attracting him.
More precisely, what was attracting him was something beneath the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye.
Back when he had absorbed a Blood Ginseng here, he had already felt this attraction.
But after having Hu Liena search inside the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye, nothing was found.
Now, after many years, he once again felt that attraction.
Moreover, this attraction was far stronger than before, giving him a fatal temptation.
It felt just like when he had faced the three drops of Asura God's essence blood in the Slaughter City.
"Could there be divine blood down below as well?"
Jiang Chen's heart jumped fiercely as this bold guess flashed through his mind.
If that were true, then this would once again be a heaven-defying opportunity for him.
Just as he was about to use the Heavenly Punishment Eye to investigate, Xiao Qing, Dugu Yan, and Yu Tianheng reached the bottom of the valley.
"Teacher, go up and get Lingling. She can't come down," Dugu Yan called out.
At that moment, an extremely terrified scream came from above.
Jiang Chen's expression changed slightly. His gaze pierced through the layers of mist and saw Ye Lingling, who had lost her footing and was now free-falling downward.
Ye Lingling's zombie cultivation was still very weak. Falling from several hundred meters high would likely turn her into a pile of minced flesh.
Jiang Chen had intentionally let her climb down by herself to train her courage.
But now it seemed he had still overestimated this girl.
His body moved, shooting upward like a rocket.
A moment later, he landed while holding Ye Lingling.
Ye Lingling's face was deathly pale, her eyes filled with terror. She clung tightly to Jiang Chen and refused to let go.
Her mind was still completely blank, and her legs had gone soft.
Jiang Chen felt somewhat helpless and signaled Dugu Yan to come over and support this girl who was almost scared to the point of wetting herself.
Dugu Yan held Ye Lingling and began comforting her.
Jiang Chen activated the Heavenly Punishment Eye, sweeping his gaze across the bottom of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye pool. Indeed, he found nothing unusual.
His gaze shifted downward, penetrating the ground and gradually going deeper.
