Chapter 70 Unleashing the Mysterious Ice Marrow, Sweeping Across the Poison Array
It was made up of forty-five strands of ten-thousand-year-old Xuanbing marrow and piles of ice-grade divine crystals.
An extreme chill permeated the demiplane, even forcing back the surrounding deathly aura.
Hyotei stood in front of the iceberg, her breathing becoming noticeably rapid.
She had lived for 400,000 years and had seen countless rare and precious materials in the far north, but this was the first time she had ever seen such a large pile of ten-thousand-year-old Xuanbing marrow.
"You little brat…" Hyotei turned her head and looked at Dai Huabin, who had followed her in, her tone complicated, "You actually managed to get your hands on this thing."
"I said, we are contractual partners, each getting what we need."
Dai Huabin walked to the iceberg, waved his hand, and separated fifteen strands of Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow, pushing them in front of the Ice Emperor.
"These are yours. Is that enough for you to attempt the Heavenly Tribulation?"
Hyotei was stunned.
Fifteen!
She originally thought that Dai Huabin would be generous if he could give her three or five sticks.
He actually gave away a third of it all at once?
A strange emotion welled up in Hyotei's heart.
The bond of blood made her clearly feel that Dai Huabin didn't feel any heartache; he gave it to her sincerely.
This human is interesting.
Ice Emperor gave a soft hum, concealing the turmoil in her heart, and reached out to take only ten strands of Ten Thousand Year Profound Ice Marrow.
"Ten is enough."
She tilted her head back and said haughtily,
"I need to overcome the Heavenly Tribulation. Ten strands of Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow are more than enough. Keep the rest for unforeseen circumstances."
Dai Huabin couldn't help but find it amusing to see her saying one thing but meaning another.
"Okay, then I'll keep it for now."
Dai Huabin was not pretentious.
"You should stay here and cultivate in seclusion. It's very safe in the undead demiplane; no one can disturb you."
Ice Emperor nodded, took the Ten Thousand Years of Profound Ice Marrow in her arms, found a corner to sit down, and a bright green light began to flow around her.
"Where are you going?" Hyotei asked casually before closing her eyes.
"Tian Dou City. Sunset Forest." Dai Huabin gazed into the distance. "Let's go get the bargaining chips that can be exchanged for the Snow Empress."
Hyotei remained silent, completely absorbed in the refining process.
Dai Huabin exited the undead demiplane and glanced at the sky.
The night was deep.
He took a deep breath, activated his Ice Soul White Tiger Martial Soul, and transformed into a streak of light, speeding towards Heaven Dou City overnight.
Dai Huabin traveled at an extremely fast pace.
After being possessed by the Ice Soul White Tiger Martial Soul, his endurance and explosive power were terrifyingly enhanced.
The properties of extreme ice allow him to reduce air resistance by condensing frost while moving at high speeds.
Three days later, outside Heaven Dou City.
Dai Huabin did not enter the city, but instead bypassed the city wall and plunged into the Sunset Forest, a hundred miles east of Heaven Dou City.
Most of the cut-off areas in this forest are now only inhabited by low-level soul beasts that are ten or a hundred years old. But Dai Huabin knows that the core area of Sunset Forest contains one of the greatest treasure troves on the Douluo Continent: the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.
"call!"
Dai Huabin stopped on the trunk of a towering tree and took a short breath.
"According to my memory, the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye should be in the valley at the very center of the forest."
He closed his eyes, and his spiritual power spread outwards like a tide.
With the blessing of the Life Gold, his mental detection range far exceeds that of other Soul Masters of the same level.
Soon, he sensed an extremely strange aura emanating from a distance of several miles ahead.
It was a thick cloud of poisonous fog.
Dai Huabin immediately confirmed that this must be the Seven Absolute Flowers of Azure Phosphorus, and the Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire was inside the Seven Absolute Flowers of Azure Phosphorus.
The poisonous domain of the Seven Deadly Flowers of Azure Phosphorus was even more outrageous than he had imagined.
The area within a radius of several hundred meters was shrouded in poisonous fog, and even the grass on the ground withered, leaving only grayish-white dead soil.
Occasionally, a few flying insects would accidentally fly in, and before they could even flap their wings twice, they would fall down, turning into a lump of mud when they hit the ground.
"If someone with level 38 soul power tried to force their way in, they probably wouldn't last five seconds."
Dai Huabin smacked his lips.
Although he was protected by the ultimate ice power of the Ice Soul White Tiger, he still dared not be careless.
He was not impulsive.
He closed his eyes and used his mental energy to probe into the undead demiplane along the blood pact.
The process of contacting Hyotei went smoothly. After the blood pact was established, the mental connection between the two was like an invisible conduit; when they wanted to communicate, they only needed to push their consciousness in that direction.
"Bing'er".
A moment later, Hyotei's voice rang in his mind, tinged with obvious impatience.
"What are you doing? I have just finished refining the first Ten Thousand Year Profound Ice Marrow and am about to start the second one."
"There's something I need your help with."
"What's up?"
"I've reached the outside of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, but the entrance is blocked by the poisonous mist of the Seven Absolute Flowers of Azure Phosphorus, and I can't get in by myself."
There was a two-second silence on the other end.
"The Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire?"
"Yes. There are bargaining chips for trading Xue Di inside." Dai Huabin directly threw out the key information, "I need you to come out and pave the way for me."
Another silence followed.
Dai Huabin could sense the Ice Emperor's inner turmoil through the blood pact. She was refining the Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow and making good progress, so being interrupted must have made her unhappy.
But once the title "Snow Emperor" is thrown at her, she definitely won't be able to sit still.
really.
"You wait."
Hyotei's tone was irritable, like someone who's just woken up.
"I will come out immediately."
Dai Huabin breathed a sigh of relief.
He jumped down from the tree branch, found a clean rock to sit on, and then, with a thought, opened a portal to the undead demiplane.
A silver-gray portal opened before him, and Hyotei stepped out from it.
She was still wearing the same white-and-green fitted short skirt she had worn before, and her white leather boots made a soft sound as they stepped on the withered earth.
Her dark green twin ponytails swayed slightly behind her, and her expression screamed:
This emperor is not pleased.
"Is this the Seven Deadly Flowers of Azure Phosphorus you mentioned?" Hyotei glanced at the purplish-green poisonous mist ahead, wrinkling her nose. "Stinky."
"The toxicity is very high." Dai Huabin stood up. "Even ordinary Title Douluos would lose a layer of skin if they went in."
Hyotei snorted coldly, raised her right hand, and slightly spread her five fingers.
Emerald green light surged from her palm, and the aura of extreme ice instantly spread out.
The surrounding temperature plummeted at a visible rate, and a layer of white frost quickly formed on the dry soil beneath Dai Huabin's feet.
"That's all the poisonous fog?"
Hyotei took a step forward, and a verdant aura expanded from her, forming an icy domain within a three-meter radius around her.
The purplish-green poisonous mist, upon touching the edge of Hyotei's domain, was instantly frozen into tiny ice crystals that crackled and fell to the ground.
"Follow me." Hyotei said without turning her head, then stepped directly into the poisonous fog.
Dai Huabin quickly followed, staying close to the edge of Hyotei's icy domain.
He could see that with each step Hyotei took, a large section of the poisonous fog in front of him was frozen and shattered.
The potent poison released by the Seven Deadly Flowers of Azure Phosphorus is no different from paper in the face of the ultimate ice.
"This flower is quite ugly," Hyotei casually remarked.
After the poisonous fog dissipated, Dai Huabin finally saw the true nature of the Seven Deadly Flowers of the Azure Phosphorus.
It was a strange plant, entirely emerald green with phosphorescent edges on its petals, densely covering the entire area.
Each flower was constantly releasing a purple-green mist, and tiny, shimmering points of light could be faintly seen at the center of the flower.
"Don't touch it," Dai Huabin warned. "The pollen from this stuff will kill you if it gets on your skin."
Hyotei didn't even glance at the flowers.
She directly increased the output of her icy domain, and the Azure Phosphorous Seven Absolute Flowers beneath her feet were frozen brittle by the severe cold, their petals shattered, and even their stems turned into icicles.
The two continued their advance, crushing their way forward.
After walking for about ten minutes, the poisonous fog gradually thinned out.
The terrain ahead began to change; the trees disappeared, replaced by a patch of bare rock.
The rocks piled up layer upon layer, getting higher and higher as you went forward, eventually forming a steep cliff.
The edges of the cliff were sharply shaved by the wind, and looking down from the top, one could see a circular valley about a hundred feet deep.
Dai Huabin walked to the edge of the cliff and looked down.
His breath hitched for a moment.
At the bottom of the valley, there are two springs, one on the left and one on the right.
