Huangfu Ying did not explain anything, and continued, "Shangguan Yuzhou absorbed the essence of blooming silver, and you sold another portion of the essence of blooming silver. I think you have found the vein that breeds the essence of blooming silver."
"If you are willing to hand over the location of the mineral vein to the sect, I will not let you suffer any loss. Of course, the choice is yours. I never force my disciples."
Although Huangfu Ying is a shrewd and scheming man, he is truly consistent in what he says and what he means when it comes to his disciples.
At least he never forced Kong Jue to do anything.
He even said the same thing about the Frost and Snow Spirit that time.
In the end, Kong Ju was unable to tell him how to obtain the Essence of Frost and Snow, and he did not ask any further questions.
Instead, he helped Kong Jue cover up everywhere.
Kong Ju respected the sect leader from the bottom of his heart for being so considerate of his disciples. Of course, it was inevitable that he would criticize him occasionally.
Preventing Kong Ju from complaining is as difficult as preventing Shangguan Yuzhou from participating in a competition.
Kong Ju was not really interested in the mineral vein. After returning to the sect, he was busy refining pills to improve his strength and busy looking for the secret of the sheepskin map.
He had forgotten about this matter and immediately responded sincerely: "This is my negligence. This mineral vein should have been reported to the sect. After I go out, I will mark its specific location and hand it over to the sect leader."
"Okay!" Huangfu Ying responded concisely.
Rumble.
A long-sealed stone door slowly opened from the outside with a dull roar.
The moment the huge door moved open, Kong Ju felt a gust of cold wind blowing in his face from inside the door, freezing his cheeks and causing pain, and his eyebrows and hair were instantly covered with white frost.
Feeling the biting cold sweeping through his body, Kong Ju looked slightly surprised.
This was the first time he encountered severe cold that made him feel uncomfortable after practicing the Guanghan Taiyin Sutra.
After calming down a little, Kong Ju looked inside through the wide-open stone door.
A space completely frozen by ice and snow appeared before my eyes.
Icicles as thick as an adult's waist covered the top of the space.
The floor is also covered with frost all year round, forming a smooth ice surface like a mirror.
The sight moved to the center of the center, where there was a mass about the size of a human head, emitting extreme coldness all over the body. There was no substantial snow-white substance, floating there quietly, emitting a milky white halo.
Obviously, that substance is the source of the coldness in this space.
"That must be the Snow Soul that Zhao Wei mentioned!" Kong Ju thought secretly while looking at the Snow Soul.
At the same time, Huangfu Ying's clear voice rang in his ears.
"Go in! Stay there until you figure it out. It would be great if you can gain some insights, but don't be discouraged if you can't obtain the Snow Burial Record."
"After all, not even the Zhao family can figure out the secret of this snow spirit."
"Yes! Disciple is going." He bowed to Huangfu Ying.
Under Huangfu Ying's gaze, Kong Ju took a deep breath and stepped into this world of ice and snow with a determined look.
He is not just going through the motions, he is determined to get "Burial in the Snow".
As his front foot just stepped into the stone gate.
Rumble! The thick stone wall closed on its own.
Only Kong Ju was left alone in this snowy world.
Only when he was truly in it did Kong Ju realize how terrifying the coldness emanating from the Snow Soul was.
In that cold air, the skin felt as painful as if it was pricked by countless silver needles, and even the spiritual energy in the body was frozen and slowed down.
"No one has figured out the secret of this Snow Soul. One of the reasons is that they can't stand the horrible cold!"
Muttering to himself, Kong Ju immediately activated the Guanghan Taiyin Meridian and controlled his body temperature to a level close to freezing point.
The chill that had frozen my bones just now was slowly dissipating.
After doing all this, Kong Ju slowly walked to the center of the space, in front of Xue Po.
The ball of snow soul, which was the size of a human head, did not react at all to the approach of someone.
On the contrary, as Kong Jue got closer and closer to Xue Po, the power emitted by Xue Po covered Kong Jue's body with thick white frost.
His cheeks, the palms of his hands sticking out of his sleeves, and even his black hair were all frozen.
Only his pair of bright eyes were left, staring at the snow soul in front of him that recorded the "Snow Burial Record".
Looking closely, it is not static; the material that makes up the Snow Soul is flowing at a slow speed.
Its existence is like a piece of ice and also like water.
Seeing this scene, Kong Ju's eyes lit up slightly, and he tried to find the pattern of its flow.
But as time went on, his eyes quickly dimmed again.
"There is no pattern to be found. If it were that simple, it would have been cracked by the descendants of the Cangwu School long ago."
Outside the stone gate.
Dongxian stood with his hands behind his back beside Huangfu Ying.
One is the unrivaled Law Enforcement Hall Master of the Cangwu Sect, who has extremely powerful combat power at the Palm of Life Realm.
The two of them actually gathered together just because the guardian Kong Ju, who was receiving the inheritance, was sitting in the underground.
With such treatment, the Cangwu sect could not find a third person other than Huangfu Wuqin.
"Ice Soul causes coldness. Over a dozen generations of the Zhao family have died from its coldness. The threshold for inheriting the Snow Burial Record is the highest among the three major inheritances of our sect."
"Why do you think he will succeed?"
Dongxian, who has always been frugal with words, rarely speaks so many words in one breath today.
It is conceivable how much he values the Record of the Burial of Snow.
Huangfu Ying just looked at the clouds of spiritual energy curling in the mountains, with unquestionable confidence in his voice.
"If the holders of the Earth Grade Essence of Heaven and Earth and the Essence of Frost and Snow cannot penetrate this Ice Soul, there is no need to include this inheritance in the three major inheritances of our sect."
"Because, no one will ever be able to obtain the Snow Burial Record from now on."
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
"Difficult!" Dong Xian expressed his judgment with just one word.
"Under the icy cold, he has to practice a very difficult Taoist technique before he can pass the test. Even if he can withstand the cold, it will be difficult for him to master the Taoist technique if he is distracted."
"How about a bet?" Huangfu Ying suddenly smiled, turned his head and looked at Dongxian and said, "Let's bet on your treasure."
"Okay!" Dongxian didn't hesitate at all.
The conversation between the two lasted only a moment.
Kong Ju, who had been observing the Ice Soul for a long time without any gain, simply ignored observing the flow of the Snow Soul and instead focused on the Snow Soul itself.
"Observing the Snow Spirit? Actually, this method itself may be wrong. Maybe we can try another method."
As he spoke, Kong Ju raised his palm, looked quietly at his five fingers that were already frozen and covered with white frost, and suddenly smiled.
"I have the essence of frost and snow, so I am not afraid of being hurt by it. Why don't we give it a try?"
If this idea were known to others who were not aware of the situation, they would probably be scared.
This snow soul is extremely strange. Just getting close to it requires a huge effort in order to resist the strange chill emanating from its body.
Of course, some people would think about reaching out and touching it.
Even those who have this idea do not have the courage to try it.
The reputation of the Snow Drink Patriarch is there, and the terror of the Snow Soul is also there, unless that person really doesn't want to live.
But Kong Ju is different. The special nature of his martial arts allows him to withstand the extreme cold that most people simply cannot endure.
There is also the essence of heaven and earth with the nature of ice, the essence of frost and snow.
All these factors allowed Kong Ju to almost ignore most of the damage from the Ice Soul.
In this case, Kong Jue could give this action, which would be self-destructive to others, a try.
As soon as he finished speaking, Kong Ju's hand had already reached out towards Xue Po.
As his palm got closer and closer to the ice soul, the white frost on his hand was being increasingly eroded by the cold.
Even his entire palm was frozen into a ball of ice.
In this situation, Kong Ju's eyes remained calm.
Until his palm reached into it.
Something unexpected happened.
The coldness emanating from the Snow Soul was so cold that even the strong ones in the Shenglun realm would tremble.
There is no temperature in the body of Xuepo.
Not cold, not hot, just like the touch of warm jade.
Even the black ice that had condensed on Kong Ju's hands due to the excessive cold melted away the moment it penetrated Xue Po.
The skin of the five fingers was almost glued to Xuepo's body.
The snow soul that was originally flowing leisurely, as Kong Ju's palm reached in, was like a drop of water falling into boiling oil.
They immediately started a crazy riot.
It was like a stream of water, starting from the palm of Kong Jue's hand that entered Xue Po's body, and quickly covering his entire body.
Kong Ju was startled at first and subconsciously wanted to pull back, but reason made him stop himself.
"There is no danger for now, let's wait and see."
With Kong Ju's indulgence, the snow soul completely enveloped him in just two or three breaths.
A vague and ethereal voice, which came from nowhere, entered the depths of Kong Ju's mind the moment he was surrounded by Xue Po.
"Those who wish to inherit the Snow Burial Record must first endure the freezing cold and practice the 'Cold Clothes and Snow Worshipping Technique' in the Snow Soul."
