Crafting an Immortal Race with Daily Hexagrams

Putting away the long sword in his hand and continuing forward for a short while, Shen Chongzhen suddenly felt that the extremely Yin and cold power around him was gradually strengthening.

His eyes pierced through the thick mist, faintly seeing a strange figure standing on the gray-black earth ahead.

Cautiously approaching that figure, Shen Chongzhen discovered that it was actually a middle-aged cultivator.

This middle-aged cultivator was in a running posture, appearing strange, with a somewhat terrified expression.

When Shen Chongzhen circled around to the front of the figure, he noticed that although the person’s body was frozen stiff by the extremely Yin and cold power, his eyeballs could still move, and his vitality had not been completely extinguished.

Upon seeing Shen Chongzhen, a strong desire flashed in the eyes of this middle-aged cultivator, seemingly wanting Shen Chongzhen to save his life.

But Shen Chongzhen simply glanced and discovered that most of the organs inside this person had already lost vitality.

The reason he could retain some level of consciousness was probably due to the Yin Qi in the surrounding Earth Spirit Nether Soil giving some nourishment to his divine spirit.

However, this nourishment was akin to quenching thirst with poison.

As Shen Chongzhen hesitated on whether to give him a swift end, he suddenly witnessed a bizarre scene.

The eagerness in the eyes of the middle-aged cultivator gradually dimmed, and immediately, a gray-white ghostly figure emerged from his body.

That was his divine spirit!

After detaching from the body, the middle-aged cultivator’s divine spirit appeared bewildered for a moment, and then, seemingly remembering Shen Chongzhen’s previous ”refusal to rescue,” it instantly turned vicious and rushed toward him!

Unfortunately, he underestimated the power of Shen Chongzhen’s Geng Metal Sword Intent on his body.

As the ghostly figure lunged forward, it was instantly pierced into a hedgehog by several dazzling golden Sword Intents and Sword Auras!

For a moment, the ghostly figure froze in place before letting out a shrill and tragic scream, slowly splitting apart, transforming into numerous gray-white light orbs floating away.

The surrounding wandering ghostly figures, upon seeing these gray-white light orbs, like hyenas smelling blood, instantly pounced and devoured those orbs completely.

Witnessing this scene, Shen Chongzhen shook his head slightly, not daring to linger, and directly departed, continuing forward.

The extremely Yin and cold aura grew increasingly intense, indirectly guiding him toward the direction of the Xuan You Ice Flame.

Continuing for another few dozen miles, he gradually found that his Sword Intent was nearly unable to resist the pervasive cold erosion. Helpless, he could only retrieve the Nine Yang Refining Fire Pill gifted by Zhou Xuan and swallow it.

Boom!

At the moment the elixir entered his mouth, a terrifying force of Yang Fire suddenly burst forth on his body!

At this moment, Shen Chongzhen seemed to transform into a burning human torch, with blazing light flames enveloping him!

These light flames blocked the terrifying extremely Yin and cold Qi about ten feet away, significantly reducing the pressure he felt.

”What a treasure!”

Rejoicing inwardly, feeling the melting speed of the pill in his mouth, Shen Chongzhen realized he couldn’t afford to waste any time and must swiftly locate the Xuan You Ice Flame.

With the protection from the Yang Fire produced by the Nine Yang Refining Fire Pill, he could proceed unrestrainedly across this earth.

After speeding for about two hours, when the range of Yang Fire on his body compressed to only about ten feet, Shen Chongzhen finally noticed a hint of the suspected Xuan You Ice Flame.

Looking ahead, the surfaces of the earth and rocks had unknowingly accumulated a thick layer of frost.

Moreover, the frost continued to spread outward.

By deducing from the spreading direction of the frost, the approximate location of the Xuan You Ice Flame could already be determined.

”The Nine Yang Refining Fire Pill should support half an hour longer.”

”Find the Xuan You Ice Flame within half an hour, and then use three Fiery Sun Shield Talismans to depart from here.”

Calculating slightly in his mind, Shen Chongzhen channeled the Sword Essence power within him, flying in the opposite direction of the spreading frost.

When he arrived at an area of the earth and rocks sealed by ice, he suddenly saw not far away two other figures also surrounded by Yang Fire, glaring at a sapphire blue ice flame suspended above a low-lying depression!

Upon gazing at the ice flame, Shen Chongzhen was instantly amazed!

The ice flame was a sapphire blue throughout, and during its flicker, it resembled a flower sculpted of ice, continuously changing its form.

Germinate... Blossom... Wither...

Then repeating the previous cycle.

The two opposite also appeared to be beholding this exquisite supreme treasure of heaven and earth for the first time, their heart spirits stunned, they unexpectedly forgot to act first.

As a sword cultivator, under Sword Heart Clarity, Shen Chongzhen clearly awoke faster than them.

Feeling the pill in his mouth leaving a trace, he immediately flashed toward the continually morphing ice flame!

Midway, he had already pulled out the special jade box gifted by Zhou Xuan, directly covering toward the ice flame!

”No!”

”You brat, stop!”

”This treasure is mine!”

Seeing Shen Chongzhen had acted, the other two also snapped to their senses!

Among them, an elder in the Fetal Breathing Realm angrily shouted, simultaneously changing finger techniques in his hand and instantly summoned an earthy yellow small flag!

That small flag spun twice in the air, and the dragon embroidered on its flag surface roared, charging towards Shen Chongzhen who was collecting the Xuan You Ice Flame!

Meanwhile, another mid-stage Fetal Breathing young man swiftly followed, summoning a peculiar copper tripod, its mouth suspending upside down, with massive beams of golden light shooting out, colliding toward Shen Chongzhen’s body.

These two were loose cultivators chosen by external cultivators.
