Xu Feng put away the Black Phoenix Demon Fire and suddenly felt a sense of satisfaction.
At this moment, Xu Feng turned his head and looked towards an ice hill. He said coldly, "Have you seen enough? How long do you plan to hide?"
After a while, the two men walked out from behind the ice mound with slightly awkward expressions.
"I am the Holy Son of Tianyuan Sect, Liu Houfei! Greetings to the Holy Son of Wanfa Sect."
"I am Master Yan, the Holy Son of the Taiyi Sect of the Eastern Region. Nice to meet you, Holy Son of the Wanfa Sect."
The two men bowed to Xu Feng and said.
"Did you all see the battle just now?" Xu Feng asked expressionlessly.
"We were attracted by the calamity cloud before. When we first arrived here, we only saw the scene where the Sky Phoenix Demon King was killed by you!" Liu Houfei said hurriedly.
"Do you know it?" Xu Feng asked curiously.
"Among the ten demon kings in the Barbarian Demon Mountain Range, the Heavenly Phoenix Demon King ranks seventh. Even if you have never seen him, you must have heard of him." Yan Shidao said with a smile, holding a folding fan.
Yan Shidao was holding a folding fan, looking like a handsome gentleman, but the freezing cold in the Black Ice Abyss made Yan Shidao look a little funny! "Have you found the Black Ice Skyworm?" Xu Feng suddenly asked.
"The Xuanbing Skyworm is agile and looks like a ghost. Moreover, an adult Xuanbing Skyworm can control the power of artistic conception. How can it be so easy to catch it?" Master Yan shook his head.
"The Xuanbing Sect's reward for discussing the Dao is extremely harsh. Even if I really caught the Xuanbing Skyworm, I would either use it myself or take it back to the sect in exchange for contribution points. I would never give it to the Xuanbing Sect in exchange for a few Xuanbing essences..." Liu Houfei curled his lips and said disdainfully: "Anyone who obtains the Xuanbing Skyworm and gives it to the Xuanbing Sect to get a reward for discussing the Dao is really a fool."
Xu Feng smiled slightly. Although it was his first time to participate in the Xuanbing Sect's discussion, he also felt that the reward given by the Xuanbing Sect was not as valuable as the Xuanbing Sky Worm. You know, the Xuanbing Sky Worm is a rare treasure in the world, and there is a certain chance of comprehending the artistic conception after using it.
Xu Feng is still not sure whether he comprehended a hint of the true meaning of ice because of the power of the four tribulations or because of the mysterious ice worm.
"In that case, we will take our leave, two saints." Xu Feng bowed to the two of them and prepared to leave.
The fact that he had killed the Sky Phoenix Demon King was not something worth keeping secret. Humans and demons could not coexist. If the two spread the news that he had killed the Sky Phoenix Demon King, it would actually be making him famous. Xu Feng should thank them instead.
Seeing Xu Feng leaving, Yan Shidao quickly spoke out to stop him.
"Xu Shengzi, please stay!" Yan Shidao said hurriedly.
"What's the matter?" Xu Feng turned his head and asked.
"Xu Shengzi, have you ever heard of the Ice Marrow Peaches?" Yan Shidao asked softly.
"Ice Marrow Peaches?" Xu Feng raised his eyebrows and shook his head.
Although Xu Feng didn't know what Ice Marrow Peach was, judging from the name, it should be a spiritual object similar to Purple Jade Grape.
“Haha, the Ice Marrow Peach Tree is a specialty of the Mysterious Ice Abyss. It only bears fruit once every ten years!” Yan Shidao chuckled and said, “It is said that the founder of the Mysterious Ice Sect planted it in the Mysterious Ice Abyss. This year happens to be the year when it bears fruit!”
"Why did you tell me this is such good news?" Xu Feng had a half-smile on his face.
Xu Feng didn't know about the Ice Marrow Peach Tree. Perhaps only those saints who had been to the Profound Ice Abyss knew about it.
"This matter is not a secret!" Liu Houfei said quickly, "But it is not easy to obtain the Ice Marrow Peaches."
"Do you want to join forces with me to get the Ice Marrow Peaches together?" Xu Feng asked.
"Yes, since Saint Xu was able to kill the Sky Phoenix Demon King, if he can join forces with us, the chances of obtaining the Ice Marrow Peaches will be much greater." Yan Shidao nodded and said, "The other Saints also know about this matter. There will inevitably be a fight at that time. If we join forces, we will have a better chance."
“But it’s not just us saints who know about it. The black ice monsters in the black ice abyss also know about the Ice Marrow Peach Tree. When the time comes, in addition to the fights among the saints, the most important thing will be to snatch the peaches from the black ice monsters!” Liu Houfei explained.
Xu Feng seemed to understand something, nodded and said: "No wonder the Xuanbing Sect's reward for discussing the Dao is of little value, it turns out..."
"This Xuanbing Sect's reward for discussing Dao is not that important!" Yan Shidao waved his hand and said, "It is well known that the Xuanbing Sect is stingy. Even if the Ice Marrow Peaches had not matured, they would not have given out any decent rewards!"
"Hmph, we met the Holy Son of the Xuanbing Sect before. He wanted to invite us to compete for the Ice Marrow Peaches together, but we refused!" Liu Houfei snorted coldly.
"Why is that?" Xu Feng asked with a smile.
"He wants too much!" Liu Houfei frowned.
"Then how do we divide it?" Xu Feng asked.
"Of course we divide it equally!" Liu Houfei said, "Each person can only eat one Ice Marrow Peach at most. It can increase your lifespan by ten years and also enhance your perception of the artistic conception of frost and cold air. Eating more is useless!"
“For us, only ten years of lifespan is somewhat attractive. As for enhancing the perception of frost and coldness, no one cares except the Holy Son of Xuanbing Sect!” Yan Shidao explained.
Hearing that each person could only eat one peach at most, Xu Feng immediately lost interest and nodded, saying, "Okay, let's go together and share the Ice Marrow Peaches equally if we get any!"
…
In an icy lake in the Xuanbing Abyss, a peach tree over a hundred feet tall stood in the center of the lake.
The peach tree is pure white all over, and both the trunk and branches look like they are carved from ice. From a distance, it shines with a faint light and looks like a perfect work of art.
This is the Ice Marrow Peach Tree. At this moment, there are many red fruits on the tree. The top of each fruit has a white spot the size of a fingernail. When the white gradually spreads and the whole fruit turns white, it means that these Ice Marrow Peach fruits are fully ripe.
Looking around, this Ice Marrow Peach Tree, which was over a hundred feet tall, only had less than thirty peaches.
Around this ice marrow peach fruit, there are countless black ice monsters. They don't make any noise, but stay quietly where they are, staring at the red fruits on the peach tree, watching them turn white little by little.
Further out, several saints who participated in the Xuanbing Sect's discussion also gathered in twos and threes. Like those Xuanbing monsters, they were quietly waiting for the moment when the Ice Marrow Peaches were ripe.
"Huh? The saints of Tianyuan Sect and Dongyu Taiyi Sect haven't arrived yet?"
“Haha, who knows where it might be hidden. How could those two give up the Ice Marrow Peach Fruit?”
"Do you think the Holy Son of the Wanfa Sect will show up?"
"A fifth-level cultivator, let alone saying he doesn't know, even if he knows, what can he do? I'm afraid he can't even get through these mysterious ice monsters in front of him."
"Don't underestimate him because he is only a level 5 cultivator. Many level 6 and 7 cultivators may not be his match!"
"Tsk, we haven't really fought before..."
Another half an hour later, three figures in the distance were flying towards this side quickly.
"Oh, you all came early!" Yan Shidao laughed, the folding fan in his hand snapping, and he casually bowed to several saints.
"Hey, everyone is here!" Liu Houfei sneered.
The other six saints were divided into three teams. When they saw Xu Feng and the other two together, they all showed obvious vigilance on their faces.
"Master Yan, I invited you before, but you refused. What's the matter? Do you think I am not as good as a fifth-level cultivator?" The Holy Son of Xuanbing Sect had a smile on his face, but his words gave people a bone-chilling feeling.
"Haha, people with different ideologies cannot work together. Sun Siqiu, you want too much. Aren't you afraid of eating yourself to death?" Yan Shidao said coldly.
"Hahahaha, I'm the Holy Son of the Xuanbing Sect. I can eat as many Ice Marrow Peaches as I can. They're just right to help me comprehend the realm of ice and frost!" Sun Siqiu, the Holy Son of the Xuanbing Sect, laughed.
"Do you think this Ice Marrow Peach Tree is yours?"
"Isn't it mine? This tree was planted by my ancestor of the Xuanbing Sect!" Sun Siqiu said proudly.
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
Xu Feng just glanced at Sun Siqiu and his eyes fell on the person next to Sun Siqiu.
Next to Sun Siqiu stood a man in black clothes and black pants. The man had a cold expression and was holding a sheathed sword in his arms. His temperament was somewhat similar to that of Zhao Qilei, the saint of the Hanhai Sect who was defeated by Xu Feng.
"That is Wu Qianfeng, the holy son of the Wanjian Sect. He has the strength of the peak level seven. It is said that he has comprehended a trace of sword intent. He should not be underestimated!" Yan Shidao whispered beside Xu Feng.
"Sword intent?" Xu Feng smiled. Knife intent and sword intent are the easiest artistic conception to comprehend, but it is not easy to comprehend the profound aspects. One must be passionate and loyal to the sword in his hand all his life. Many people fail to comprehend the most profound knife intent and sword intent, and end up becoming knife slaves and sword slaves, which is very sad.
"We are standing so far away now. Once the Ice Marrow Peaches are ripe, how can we snatch them from those Mysterious Ice Monsters?" Xu Feng suddenly asked.
"We can't compete with those black ice monsters!" Liu Houfei said in a low voice.
“When the Ice Marrow Peaches are ripe, those Mysterious Ice Demons will become chaotic and fight for them. We can then take the opportunity to get close to them. If we’re lucky, we might be able to snatch one or two from them. That’s considered good luck.” Master Yan shook his head and sighed.
"After all this time, do we still have to pick up the leaks of those Xuanbing monsters?" Xu Feng laughed.
"What should we do? Those Mysterious Ice Demons are at least at the peak of level six, or even level seven!" Master Yan pointed at the Ice Marrow Peach Tree and continued, "The closer the Mysterious Ice Demons are to the Ice Marrow Peach Tree, the stronger they are! See, those few Mysterious Ice Demons standing under the tree have all comprehended the realm of mind. How can we compete with them?"
"How about the nine of us saints work together to drive away these black ice demons?" Xu Feng suggested.
“Even if we join forces, we are no match for those Xuanbing demons, not to mention the Xuanbing demons who have comprehended the artistic conception!” Master Yan shook his head.
Xu Feng nodded, leaped, landed on the edge of the ice lake, and walked towards the Ice Marrow Peach Tree.
"What does this kid want to do? Is he looking for death?"
"You're not trying to get closer, are you? This is simply provoking those black ice monsters. Haha, there's something interesting to watch."
"Yan Shidao, Liu Houfei, your teammates have all stepped forward, why don't you two follow? As teammates, you have to advance and retreat together, hahahaha!"
Seeing that Xu Feng was only heading towards the black ice demon on the ice lake, several saints were stunned for a moment, and then each of them showed a mocking and gloating look on their face.
Even Yan Shidao and Liu Houfei looked at each other, not knowing what Xu Feng was going to do.
"He, he wouldn't really want to run under the Ice Marrow Peach Tree, right?" Liu Houfei asked in a low voice with a surprised expression on his face.
“The strength of those Mysterious Ice Demons under the tree is no worse than that of the Sky Phoenix Demon King, not to mention there are so many ordinary Mysterious Ice Demons!” Yan Shidao said expressionlessly: “Since he wants to try, let him try. When he is defeated, he will naturally retreat.”
Xu Feng heard the sarcasm and ridicule from the saints behind him, but he didn't care and stepped directly onto the icy lake.
Squeak! The black ice demons at the edge of the ice lake sensed Xu Feng's presence. They stood up instantly from their quiet lying state and entered combat mode.
Hundreds of Black Ice Demons pounced towards Xu Feng and were about to drown him in an instant. However, under the Ice Marrow Peach Tree, a few Black Ice Demon Kings who had already comprehended the artistic conception were attracted by the movement and movement, but they just turned their heads and glanced at it lightly, and then ignored it, keeping their attention on the Ice Marrow Peach Tree above their heads.
As soon as Xu Feng had a thought, the lightning talisman appeared. With a "boom", a thundercloud with a radius of one hundred meters appeared above his head with Xu Feng as the center.
Rumble~ There were bursts of thunder and lightning falling from the sky. All the Black Ice Demons that rushed into the 100-meter range of Xu Feng were smashed to pieces by the lightning.
Thunder tribulation!
When the Holy Sons in the distance saw this scene, they all fell silent.
“What’s so great about killing those ordinary Xuanbing demons? Who around here doesn’t have a few large-scale attack spells?” Sun Siqiu, the saint of Xuanbing Sect, snorted coldly.
"Hehe, I don't know how long he can last?"
"There are at least thousands of Mysterious Ice Demons here. Can he really kill them all?"
"The key is the few mysterious ice demons under the tree who have comprehended the artistic conception. If they take action, I'm afraid the Holy Son of the Wanfa Sect won't even have a chance to come back!"
…
With thunder above his head, Xu Feng walked towards the Ice Marrow Peach Tree step by step. Countless Black Ice Demons rushed towards him madly, but all of them turned into a pile of ice chips.
The calamity power in Xu Feng's body slowly decreased, maintaining the thunder tribulation above his head. At this time, the calamity power in Xu Feng's body had reached nearly three thousand points, and the thunder tribulation above his head was enough to sustain him until he killed all the thousands of Xuanbing demons around him.
The Ice Marrow Peach Tree was only a few hundred meters away from the shore of the Ice Lake. Soon, Xu Feng had entered an area thirty meters away from the Ice Marrow Peach Tree.
In this area, except for those few Xuanbing demons who have comprehended the artistic conception, other ordinary Xuanbing demons dare not set foot in.
Roar~ A black ice demon under the Ice Marrow Peach Tree saw that Xu Feng had stepped into their territory, and suddenly became impatient. It roared at him, and suddenly a towering snow-capped mountain phantom appeared behind it.
Snow mountain mood!
The black ice demon roared, leaped up, and pounced towards Xu Feng. For a moment, the momentum was so overwhelming that Xu Feng felt as if a towering snow-capped mountain was flying over and pressing towards him.
