In the night sky, starlight dots the dark sky.

Li Shuidao and Xia Ruoxue's two figures flew by like streamers.

The silver-gray and blood-red light shimmered faintly in the night, like two meteors streaked across the sky.

Xia Ruoxue turned her head, her eyes fell on the few retreats behind her, and her brows furrowed slightly. She asked in a cold voice: "Husband, these people don't know whether they are alive or dead, it is better to kill them and leave!" ”

"No! Now there is no delay, if they hold us back, we will definitely die. Li Shuidao replied categorically.

Xia Ruoxue bit her lip, her blood-red eyes were surging with murderous intent, she knew that her husband was right, but she was still unwilling in her heart, she whispered: "They have been poisoned, it is easy for us to kill them." ”

"Now is a life-and-death situation, there is no room for any risk, it is precisely because they are all poisoned that it is easier to get rid of them!" After Li Shuidao said that, the flight speed of his mana surge increased by three points again.

Xia Ruoxue saw that her husband had no intention of killing, so she could only speed up her escape, and the speed of the two of them became faster and faster, like two lightning bolts piercing the night sky.

And behind the two of them, a group of Xue family monks descended one after another, and they were no longer able to continue to catch up.

Their mana was lacking, and the poisonous gas invaded their bodies, depriving them of the ability to pursue.

They could only watch the black and white figures gradually disappear, and their hearts were full of endless regret and helplessness.

One of the monks couldn't help but cry out, "Damn! We are powerless to pursue! ”

The other monk bowed his head gloomily, tears glistening in his eyes: "The family treasury has been stolen, but we can't leave the enemy, ashamed of the family." ”

"It's me who can't wait!"

The stars twinkled, as if to mock their powerlessness and failure. The Xue family monks stood silently, their hearts full of remorse and pain......

……

At noon, the sun shines brightly over the dense forest.

In a hidden valley, Li Shuidao sat quietly on a flat stone, exuding a faint mana fluctuation on his body.

He had just successfully refined the Aoki Rejuvenation Pill in his body, and this precious pill had refilled his mana.

Last night's escape had exhausted him, and when his mana was exhausted, he even had to borrow the demonic power of the Jade Toad to barely maintain his flight.

Now, they have come to Cuiping Mountain, which is the edge of Yunmang Mountain bordering Montenegro and Cangzhou.

Li Shuidao chose this hidden valley, and in order to recover his mana, he had been cultivating from last night to now, refining two Aoki Rejuvenation Pills, and only then did he fully recover.

After recovering his mana, Li Shuidao glanced at Xia Ruoxue, who was doing nothing in the valley, and then patted the storage bag and took out an ice lotus, which was a magic weapon that was suspected to be a spirit boat.

It was the only magic weapon that Li Shuidao broke into the Xue family's treasure house last night.

The ice lotus has a delicate shape, and it can be seen at a glance that it is the best work of "exquisite" type of refining.

Li Shuidao held the ice lotus tightly, closed his eyes, and threw himself into refining with all his might.

The silver mana on his palm surged, and the air around him seemed to freeze.

His fingers trembled slightly, fine beads of sweat oozed from his forehead, and he devoted himself to refining.

Xia Ruoxue, who was on the side, suddenly became solemn, she knew that her husband was refining magic weapons, so she carefully guarded him to protect the Dharma.

Time passes quietly in a quiet valley......

After a bright flash of light, the ice lotus in Li Shuidao's hand bloomed, and the petals of each ice lotus turned into an ice crystal flying sword, flying out!

In the twinkling of an eye.

More than a dozen ice crystal flying swords were instantly inserted around the valley, forming a spectacular sword formation.

In the next moment, the Ice Crystal Flying Sword Sword Array emitted a piercing humming sound, and the ice crystals on the sword body flickered with cold light.

The sword array began to spin, and the flying swords flew in the air like sharp arrows......

Xia Ruoxue was trapped in the sword formation, and the sharp flying sword slashed around her, making a sharp whistling sound, which made people feel chilled.

She felt that no matter which direction she moved, she would be pierced by the sharp sword light.

As soon as Xia Ruoxue raised her hand, the huge white bone blood demon knife was already in her hand, but even so, she couldn't defend against the flying sword that slashed from behind.

Her brows furrowed, and she only felt a strong sense of oppression coming from all directions, and there was murder everywhere.

Suddenly!

The sword array dissipated.

Dozens of ice crystal flying swords returned to Li Shuidao's hands and turned into spinning ice lotuses.

Top-grade magic weapon: Tibetan Sword Ice Lotus.

This is a formation weapon, and after urging, you can instantly arrange the "Ice Lotus Sword Array" to trap and kill the enemy.

"I really never expected that this ice lotus was actually a rare array artifact, I thought it was a spirit boat." Li Shuidao smiled, although the Tibetan Sword Ice Lotus is not a Spirit Boat magic weapon, but the formation path magic weapon is also extremely rare, and the value is not as good as the Spirit Boat magic weapon.

"Congratulations to your husband, you are happy to have a treasure." Xia Ruoxue, I owe a salute.

Li Shuidao nodded slightly, and then said solemnly: "After Cuiping Mountain, it is the boundary of the Black Mountain, and now that the spirit boat ebony shuttle has destroyed your blood, the light cannot be hidden, how to return?" ”

Xia Ruoxue looked at Li Shuidao's expression, she chuckled lightly, and said confidently: "Husband, don't worry, it's not the first time that the concubine has flown away from here, it is difficult to meet a monk, and even if you do, you will avoid it from afar, and no one dares to come to find the concubine at all." ”

Li Shuidao listened to Xia Ruoxue's words, shook his head and said: "Be careful to sail the 10,000-year-old ship, after a while, the two of us will fly away at the same time, I will fly in mid-air, with a wide field of vision, you are close to the ground, shuttling through the dense forest." If I see a monk coming from afar, I will immediately send down the light and you will hide it immediately, so that you will be safe. ”

Xia Ruoxue nodded: "Husband, this method is very wonderful!" ”

Then Li Shuidao set up the retreat and flew away first, Xia Ruoxue followed behind with the blood-colored retreat, hiding his retreat in the dense forest......

Two days later......

The two of them successfully returned to Tianchi Fort.

Xia Ruoxue went to the practice room to refine blood food for the first time, while Li Shuidao came to his study to sort out the jade book that had just arrived.

Taoist Secret Techniques: "Ice Spirit Sword Heart" and "Frost and Cold Sword Intent";

Exercise Secrets: "Ice and Snow Palm", "Frost Palm", "Ice Palm"......

Just when Li Shuidao was concentrating on sorting out the jade books, the voice of the guards came from outside the study: "Lord Castle, Deputy Castle Master Zhu Hongling asks to see you." ”

Li Shuidao stopped what he was doing, thought for a moment, and then said, "Let her in." He knew that Zhu Hongling was a smart and capable person, and she should have important things to discuss with her.

After a while, Zhu Hongling walked into the study.

She was dressed in red and had a beautiful appearance, she saluted Li Shuidao, and then said, "Lord Castle, I have a happy event to report to you. ”

Li Shuidao nodded slightly, motioning for her to continue.

"Another piece of fire poison crystal was found over there in the fire poison mine, and it is in complete condition." There was a hint of excitement in Zhu Hongling's voice.

When Li Shuidao heard the news, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

Counting this piece of "Fire Poison Crystal", the fourth piece has been dug out from the Tianchi Fire Poison Mine this year.

Three pieces were paid to the sect as taxes for the fire poison mine, and one piece could be left in the family.

It's a shame to sell this kind of thing......

"This thing has not yet been put into storage, waiting for the castle owner to decide." Zhu Honglin took out a jade box from the storage bag and handed it to Li Shuidao with both hands.

Li Shuidao opened the jade box, and there was a fire poison crystal as bright as gold inside. This is the fire poison crystal of the third-order spiritual material, which can be used as a material for refining magic weapons.

Li Shuidao carefully admired the fire poison crystal, and then his heart moved and he took out a piece of burning glass from the storage bag.

Third-order high-grade spiritual material: Phoenix glass.

Third-order lower grade spiritual material: Fire Poison Crystal.

Placing these two treasures together, Li Shuidao carefully pondered the art of refining.

If there is another batch of poisonous feathers with wind attributes, then he can refine the fire poison fan again, and the fire poison fan refined this time will definitely reach the top grade, even the best grade, and the power of the "wind and fire flame poison" emitted will also be doubled.

However, it is a pity that such a good material is used to refine a magic weapon......

Perhaps you can refine a fire poison formation based on the "Hidden Sword Ice Lotus".

"This matter still has to be taken care of, and it will be registered in the warehouse, and as for this treasure, leave it to me for the time being, and I will write to the head of the family to explain the situation." Li Shuidao said solemnly.

"Does the castle owner have any other needs?" Zhu Hongling asked.

Li Shuidao thought for a moment and then said, "Recently, I want to go into retreat and learn the sword technique, and the child will take care of it. ”

"Hmm......" Zhu Hongling nodded, leaving disappointed.

After Zhu Hongling left, Li Shuidao wrote a letter to the family with an iron pen in his hand......

Asking for it directly might cause dissatisfaction among the family elders, so he proposed to express his needs by purchasing three thousand spirit stones, and the letter was written loyally and sincerely......

Li Shuidao then sprinkled a few nuts on the windowsill, and a blackbird flew quickly and pecked at the nuts. When the blackbird finished eating the nuts, Li Shuidao quickly tied the letter to its feet.

"Go ahead, send it to the family." Li Shuidao commanded.

"Quack." The Raven let out a low cry, then spread its wings and flew away, disappearing into the night sky in the blink of an eye.

The speed of the distant crow is astonishing. At most, half an hour later, the patriarch Li Shuihong will receive a letter from Li Shuidao, and maybe he will receive a reply from the family tomorrow morning.

After putting the "Fire Poison Crystal" and "Phoenix Glass" into the storage bag, Li Shuidao continued to organize the Taoist book and jade book.

Finally, Li Shuidao obtained the long-awaited Taoist book "Taiyin Condensing Frost Sword Technique", which was an exercise closely related to his major exercises, and was of great value to him.

The Taiyin Condensing Frost Sword Technique is a Taiyin type of exercise, which allows Li Shuidao to directly use the Taiyin mana he has obtained through the cultivation of the Immortal Toad Qi; This technique also incorporates the Frost Sword Technique, which can be fused with his "Ice Toad Cold Qi" and complement each other. At the same time, this is also a sword technique, Li Shuidao is already familiar with swordsmanship, he even comprehended the sword intent of "Chengtan Kendo", and his practice is even more like a fish in water.

This technique may be difficult for others to practice, but for Li Shuidao, it is definitely a powerful exercise that can be achieved quickly, and it will comprehensively improve his strength in a very short period of time.

Seven days later......

On the shore of Tianchi Lake, the lake water is sparkling, and the earthy yellow smoke in the distance rises to the sky......

Li Shuidao stood by the lake, wearing a white cultivation robe, he slowly pulled out the frozen snow dance sword in his hand, the cold air on the sword was permeated, and the snowflakes fluttered around him......

He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and sank his mind into his sword. As he breathed, the cold aura on the sword's body became more and more intense, condensing into a thin layer of frost. He swung his sword slightly, the tip of which sliced through the air, leaving a cold trail.

"Taiyin Condensation Frost Sword Technique" focuses on sword intent first, followed by mana.

The stronger the Taiyin attribute of mana, the more pervasive and pervasive the sword technique becomes.

Li Shuidao's Taiyin mana was already extremely pure, and with the cultivation of "Immortal Toad Qi", his Taiyin mana would become more and more refined......

In general, Li Shuidao has already practiced this sword technique, but the "sword intent" has not yet touched the door.

If you want to comprehend the sword intent, you must accumulate it.

Accumulate for ten years, once enlightened.

Li Shuidao began to swing his sword, and the sword light flickered, like a lightning bolt piercing the night sky. His movements are becoming more and more proficient, and his swordsmanship is becoming more and more proficient.

He felt as if he was in a world of ice and snow, dancing a beautiful and awe-inspiring picture.

Gradually......

The sky by the lake also became gloomy, and the clouds were thick, as if he felt the power of Li Shuidao's cultivation. His swordsmanship became more and more powerful, and his sword light flew like snowflakes, condensing the surrounding air into ice crystals.

Finally, he stopped his sword technique, and the tip of his sword plunged into the lake, which instantly froze and formed a surface of ice. He slowly withdrew his sword, and the cold air on the sword gradually dissipated.
