Chapter 1099: Volume 6, Heavenly Skill Spiritual Treasures, Chapter 1995: Suspicion Chapter 1099: Volume 6, Heavenly Skill Spiritual Treasures, Chapter 1995: Suspicion “Brother Han, what do you think?

Although what Fellow Daoist Han Li said makes some sense, I still have some concerns.

For safety’s sake, how about you and I advance and retreat together?

As for Fellow Daoist Fire Dragon, as far as I am aware, she has some deep connections with the Minor Extreme Palace, so we’d better be careful.” The monk in the gray robe stealthily sent a telepathic message to Han Li.

Han Li’s heart chilled, and with a flicker of his gaze, he glanced sidelong at the monk, only to find the other party giving him a slight smile.

His thoughts racing, Han Li was contemplating whether the monk’s words were true or false when suddenly a rumbling noise erupted from the Void Spirit Hall above Mystic Jade Cave, and the entire cavern trembled slightly, as if struck by a powerful blow.

Everyone’s complexion changed.

If they had been at the top of the mountain where the Minor Extreme Palace was located, they would have seen a gigantic Ice Phoenix, tens of feet in size and as white as jade, circling outside the mountain’s protective barrier.

With a sweep of its wings, a chilling wind howled past, and below it, a hundred-foot-wide ice mountain was condensed out of thin air before being released from its talons.

It fell like a great mountain crashing down onto the barrier, emitting a thunderous roar.

Countless white lights exploded and twinkled.

The originally solid barrier twisted strangely but ultimately did not break.

Even so, the mountain still trembled under the impact, and some of the less stable buildings promptly collapsed.

This giant phoenix was none other than the transformation of the woman in silver.

Enraged by the earlier heavy losses of the lower-grade demons of the Ice Sea, she, being a primordial demon beast of the Yin Ice attribute, directly broke through the outer icy restrictive formations, tore apart space to appear above Ice City, and used her divine skills to attack the protective restrictions of the Minor Extreme Palace.

Although she succeeded in a surprise attack, causing chaos among the cultivators within the mountain, the high-level cultivators of the Minor Extreme Palace naturally wouldn’t allow her to continue attacking.

Just as the demonic bird was wreathed in white light, about to condense another ice mountain, a silver streak and a white glow shot out from beneath the barrier, figures shifting within them-it was Bai Yaoyi and the grey-haired elder.

Before even approaching the icy wind, Bai Yaoyi let out a delicate shout, sending Two Silver Flying Swords slashing forward, while the grey-haired elder’s face darkened as he rubbed his hands together, and an exquisite jade bottle flew out from his sleeve, growing rapidly as it faced the wind.

The bottle shone brilliantly, and from its mouth came a thunderous roar, exuding an air of mystery.

Upon seeing this, the Ice Phoenix’s light green eyes flashed, and with a ferocious flap of its wings, several ten-foot-long ice spears appeared beneath them, shooting towards the two.

The grey-haired elder snorted coldly, and within the white glow, he formed an incantation with his hands.

The jade bottle suddenly trembled, and from its mouth, over a dozen strands of black and white light beamed out, swiftly wrapping around the ice spears.

It was unclear what mysterious power the light possessed, but once it touched the ice spears, they trembled violently, rapidly shrinking to the size of chopsticks, then pulled into the bottle by the black and white light.

A hint of surprise flashed in the Ice Phoenix’s eyes, but without time for further thought, its form shimmered, turning into a boundless blizzard sweeping towards the two.

Bai Yaoyi and the grey-haired elder did not show weakness.

They advanced, their silver streaks and black-and-white energy brilliantly meeting the onslaught.

Soon, continuous rumbling noises could be heard from the top of the mountain, where wind and snow met with flickering spiritual light.

Strangely, the beautiful woman and other Minor Extreme Palace elders did not come out to assist, suggesting they were either directing the protective formations or had gone to confront other high grade demon beasts.

With the battle raging outside, Han Li and the others inside the Void Spirit Hall felt the reverberations and looked at each other, perplexed.

Fellow Daoist Han Li also glanced towards the entrance of the cave, a serious look appearing on his face.

“It seems those demons have truly made their move.

In this case, it’s not safe to simply open the cave entrance.

Otherwise, any disturbance during a critical breakthrough could potentially ruin all previous efforts.

I intend to rely on the strength of you fellow Daoists to resist the horde of demons, and I assuredly won’t do anything detrimental to the three of you,” the Great Elder of the Minor Extreme Palace said gravely, with a undertone of determination.

“Fellow Daoist Han Li’s words make sense, and we can understand.

But if we help you to break through the bottleneck, and you succeed while the three of us are left severely weakened, such a disparity might become very unsettling, especially enclosed here underground.

A wise man does not stand under a collapsing wall, and it is necessary to guard against others.

Even if we have relations with your palace, we cannot simply trust our lives to you based on a few words,” the monk frowned slightly and said slowly.

“It’s not surprising that fellow Daoists are so cautious; if it were me, I wouldn’t put myself in such a situation either.

But does Master Mo Jiu have a proposal that satisfies both sides?” Fellow Daoist Han Li asked helplessly.

“Here’s a thought.

If Fellow Daoist has no other schemes, why not leave the Celestial Ice Cauldron temporarily in our custody?

Once this matter is resolved, we will return the cauldron to you.

This way, we can assist you with peace of mind in overcoming your bottleneck,” the grey-robed monk’s eyes flashed with a sharp light, suddenly suggesting this.

As soon as these words came out, both Han Li and the old woman standing on the beam were taken aback, but then they seemed to understand.

“Good, this is indeed a solution that satisfies both,” Han Li readily agreed.

After thinking it over carefully, the old woman also slowly nodded in agreement.

However, the middle-aged man in the green shirt changed his expression and couldn’t help interjecting: “Master Mo Jiu, is this really appropriate?

You should be well aware of the origin of the Celestial Ice Cauldron.

It is the exclusive magic artifact for our palace to cultivate the Celestial Ice Flame; it cannot be carelessly handed over to others.” He said this while continuously shaking his head.

“We are only going to safeguard it temporarily, returning the original item before leaving this place, with no intention of keeping it for ourselves.

What’s wrong with that?

Fellow Daoist Ouyang is being overly cautious,” the amicable grey-robed monk stated, now showing no sign of giving in.

“But…” The middle-aged man in green was about to say something more when Fellow Daoist Han Li interrupted him: “Enough, Fellow Daoist Ouyang.

Master Mo Jiu’s words are not without reason.

Very well, I agree to this matter.

But I wonder, among the three of you, who shall take care of the Celestial Ice Cauldron?” The Great Elder agreed readily, but his rhetorical question made Han Li hesitate a bit, prompting him to glance at the other two.

The monk and the old crone remained silent, too.

“Since this was proposed by Master Mo Jiu, let the master take care of the cauldron.

I’ve always had great trust in the master’s character,” the old crone said, her expression shifting as she spoke.

Han Li narrowed his eyes, thought rapidly like a flash of lightning, and subconsciously nodded in the end.

“Since both of you trust this poor monk so much, I shall temporarily safeguard the cauldron,” the gray-robed monk did not decline, accepting the responsibility solemnly.

Seeing that a decision had been made, Fellow Daoist Han Li wasted no time.

He pointed at the mini cauldron high above, which then spun and its Celestial Ice Flame retracted before slowly descending.

The monk, observing this, acted without delay.

He waved his sleeve and a green glow flew out, swirling around the cauldron and temporarily restraining it.

Although the cauldron could produce Celestial Ice Flame, he himself possessed an Extreme Cold Flame, so there was no fear of any mishaps.

This time, Han Li took the initiative to transform into a streak of light and shot towards the purple light pillar.

To tell the truth, after observing during the past few days, Han Li had come to understand most of the secret technique.

However, the final breakthrough was crucial; he had to witness it personally to completely integrate the technique.

Therefore, even though Han Li felt uneasy about the cave being sealed, he trusted in his own capabilities and showed no fear.

Even if the Great Elder of the Minor Extreme Palace truly succeeded in breaking through to the Divinity Transformation Stage, there wouldn’t be anything to fear before he had stabilized his realm.

Moreover, as mentioned in the jade slips left behind by the escaping spirit, the restrictions the Divinity Transformation Stage in the human world faced were such that, after understanding a little, he felt much less apprehensive.

However, for safety, he summoned the True Fire of Taiyin into the Array with a movement of his spiritual sense, hiding it beneath a random stone.

This went unnoticed by the others.

At this moment, the monk smiled and then leaped up, followed by the other cultivators who also flew into the Array.

Fellow Daoist Han Li didn’t hesitate to repeatedly press his fingers down and re-activate the Array.

Immediately, a surge of brilliance arose all around, and a curtain of light reappeared, enveloping everyone within it.

A white, whirling wind also picked up, hiding the light curtain beneath it.

Han Li blinked, carefully observing his surroundings.

Even though the activated restrictive formations seemed the same as before, he could tell there was some difference in the spiritual energy fluctuations.

With his near-Grandmaster understanding of Formations, he quickly discerned some of the subtleties and analyzed them inwardly, while maintaining a composed exterior.

“Let’s begin!

Hehe, if I truly succeed this time, I will not forget the favors granted by my fellow cultivators,” said Fellow Daoist Han Li from within the milky white cold light, chuckling deeply, and then he formed incantations with both hands.

The blue Celestial Ice Flame around him shook and transformed into a deep azure color, as profound as the deep blue sea, captivating anyone who cast their gaze upon it, reluctant to look away.

“Eh!

I didn’t expect Fellow Daoist Han Li’s Celestial Ice Flame to be refined to such an extent; it’s probably the limit of purity we can achieve in the human world,” the old crone murmured enviously upon seeing this.

“Is this the fully refined Extreme Cold Flame?” Han Li thought, taking another long look at Fellow Daoist Han Li.

At this point, the others started to sit cross-legged, with huge luminous lotuses unfolding beneath them.

Han Li gave a slight smirk and sat down with ease, pinching his fingers to stir the incantations.

Different colors of Celestial Ice Flame appeared on each person, but this time, instead of taking immediate action, low incantations could be heard.

The lotuses beneath them grew continuously larger with the chantings, soon doubling in size, and with the empowerment of the lotuses, their Celestial Ice Flames became even more dazzling and intense.

Han Li suddenly felt a burning sensation all over, feeling as though he was in the midst of a scorching sun, with his Purple Apex Flames fully kindled.
