Chapter 70: The Ice Cave

"Ice cave?" Sun Hao asked suspiciously, "What is that place?"

Deacon Tang reminisced a little and said: "At that time, a big secret of my Song Kingdom, only my family, the royal family, and the Wang family knew the details of it, and it was a blessed land in ancient times. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½ā€

"So what's the matter with me?"

"Don't be busy, listen to me. Deacon Tang continued: "It is an ancient place in the Song Kingdom, which contains huge treasures, and the monks of my Song Kingdom have always obtained a lot of benefits from it. ā€

"But three hundred years ago, some monks from other places didn't know where to learn about this place, and they attacked on a large scale, trying to seize control of the ice cave. ā€

"That battle made the cultivation realm of the Song Kingdom a mess, and the royal family and our Medicine Valley also rose in that battle, and in the end, although the foreign monks were expelled from the Song Kingdom, the seal of the ice cave was also broken. ā€

"The three of us had no choice but to re-strengthen the seal, but we didn't know what was wrong, so that only Qi Condensation Stage disciples could enter the Ice Cave. ā€

"In order to protect the ice cave, the three families had to limit it to only once every thirty years, and the Qi Condensation disciples sent by the three families entered it to look for opportunities, and they have been like this all these years. ā€

"And in another year, it will be the day the ice cave opens, and the valley lord personally ordered that you have your share among the people who entered the ice cave this time, so I asked you to hurry up and cultivate, and reach the ninth layer of condensation as soon as possible, so as to deal with entering the ice cave this time. ā€

It turned out that this was the case, Sun Hao's heart couldn't help but become active, and after thinking for a long time, he said: "The disciple can be loyal to the sect, and he is naturally happy, but there are not a few senior brothers who are better than me in the sect, and the disciple asks himself if there is nothing outstanding about it, why did the valley master choose me." ā€

Deacon Tang shook his head in confusion, and did not say the reason, he could only smile and say: "The valley master naturally has his plan, you just need to carry it out, you know, there are many opportunities in the ice cave, as long as you get one of them, it is enough for you to work hard for several years, such a good opportunity is something that everyone wants, you have to cherish it." ā€

Sun Hao nodded yes.

Out of the house, Sun Hao scratched his head in confusion and asked Huo Lao, "Huo Lao, do you know anything about the ice cave?"

The old man said lazily and nonchalantly: "I haven't heard of any ice caves, I guess it's just a small space made by some boring ancient monks, and there are some pretty good things in it." ā€

"Are you saying that there is more than one such place?" asked Sun Hao suspiciously.

"Of course!" said Huo Lao proudly, "I have seen many such places before, and each of them has been blown by people to be amazing, but in fact, there are not many really good things, they are all some rags, and only you monks in small places will be treasures." ā€

When Sun Hao heard this, he couldn't help but shake his head, I am afraid that the things that can be called good things by a big demon like Huo Lao are real treasures, and the rags in his mouth are probably all treasures that ordinary people can't think of.

Otherwise, a large number of monks in the Song Kingdom would not have rushed to enter the ice cave.

In any case, this is an opportunity, not only can I improve my cultivation, but also have the opportunity to enter the Ancient Immortal Spring, and I may not be able to meet the opportunity.

In the next few months, the sect opened up Sun Hao's elixir to a great extent, and there was a steady stream of elixirs every day, so Sun Hao was relieved to cultivate boldly.

It didn't take long for him to be promoted to the eighth layer of condensation, and the aura in the dantian had turned into a small lake, and it was about to occupy Sun Hao's dantian, and it seemed that he could enter the ninth layer of condensation as long as he stepped at the door.

But in the next period of time, no matter how much Sun Hao cultivated, he couldn't break through the ninth layer of condensation, which made Sun Hao very depressed.

Soon it was a year's time, and in seven days it was time for the ice cave to open, but his cultivation did not break through.

On this day, Sun Hao tried again, but he worked hard for a long time, but it was also in vain.

Just when he was a little annoyed, an arrogant voice suddenly came from outside the door: "Sun Hao, you come out for me, I have something to say to you!"

Sun Hao frowned, stepped forward to open the door, but found that it was Wang Wanying, who he hadn't seen for a long time.

When he opened the door and saw this person, he was a little helpless, and frowned: "Wang Wanying, why are you still ghostly, you can't help me in this medicine valley, what's the point of talking more nonsense!"

Wang Wanying smiled and said with a sneer: "Sun Hao, Sun Hao, do you think you can hide behind Deacon Tang for a lifetime, let me tell you, this time the ice cave is opened, I will also enter, and when the time comes, our account should be settled." ā€

Sun Hao frowned, and secretly said in his heart that it was troublesome, how could this Wang Wanying enter the ice cave, and it would be a trouble to really have a dispute at that time.

However, he didn't show his cowardice, and said with a cold smile: "Don't be happy too early, it's hard to say who will kill the deer at that time!"

Wang Wanying gritted his teeth and sneered: "I'm not ashamed to die when I die, look at you, I'm still a disciple of the eighth layer of condensation, and I have entered the ninth layer of condensation, and my cultivation can crush you, and I still have the magic weapon given by the family, why are you fighting with me!"

Sun Hao was not annoyed, waved his sleeves and said coldly: "What the hell, I will know when the time comes, I still have something to do, and I won't send it slowly." ā€

After saying that, he closed the door and ignored the person.

Wang Wanying was stunned for a moment, and then muttered a little resentfully: "Boy, you are arrogant, when you cry, hum!"

With that, he shook his sleeves and turned to leave.

Sun Hao entered the house, and couldn't help but check his inventory first, now there is an extra threat from Wang Wanying, you must prepare in advance, otherwise you won't know how to die if you enter the ice cave.

He opened the storage bag, only to find that before he knew it, his storage bag was already so rich, and there were a lot of miscellaneous things.

There are thousands of light spirit stones, which can be regarded as a lot of wealth among Qi Condensation Stage monks, but they are not useful yet, so they will be put aside for the time being.

There are also a lot of cultivation pills, which are also put aside for the time being.

Next is the pill to heal the wounds and replenish the qi, there are a lot, one of the pills was given by Deacon Tang before, according to him, this pill has the miraculous effect of flesh and bones, as long as there is still a breath there, it can be quickly recovered, and it is very precious.

This is a life-saving elixir, and it must be put to good use.

Next is the magic weapon, in addition to Sun Hao's most convenient shadow needle, there are also the thousand jin seal and treasure armor that were snatched from Zhao Jing's hand, these are also good things, the treasure armor can keep himself safe, and the two top-level magic weapons are his biggest reliance.

As soon as he saw these things, he couldn't help but think of Song Ling'er, who was the Zhao Jing who joined forces with her to kill her, but he didn't know where she was now, and whether Qizhumen had been destroyed by the enemy.

Sun Hao shook his head and put these behind, now is not the time to think about this.

There are also a large number of mid- and low-level magic weapons in the storage bag, all of which have been accumulated over the years, but I am afraid that they will not be of much use in a short period of time.

The blue crystal was also turned out by him, but now he can't count on this uncle, so he put it aside.

The next thing is some talismans, which are not very useful, Sun Hao put them in a convenient place, so that they are easy to use.

In the end, there are those two strange beast diagrams, and Sun Hao has not been short to get them, but he has never been able to understand their use, so let's put them aside for the time being.

This is Sun Hao's entire net worth, for a Qi Condensing Cultivator, it is a lot of wealth, even against the enemy Wang Wanying.

Only then did he put his mind at ease, packed up his things, and calmed down, wanting to impact the ninth layer of condensation again.

But before he could calm down, another voice came from outside the door, asking in a low voice: "Senior Brother Sun, are you there, the valley master has an order, please come over." ā€

Sun Hao couldn't help frowning, how could the valley lord look for himself at this time, could it be that he had something to settle down for the matter of entering the ice cave.

When he opened the door, he saw a medicine boy with red lips and white teeth standing outside the room, who looked to be no more than twelve or thirteen years old.

When he saw Sun Hao come out, his cheeks were slightly red, and he said nervously: "Senior Brother Sun, the Gu Lord ordered me to come to you and ask you to go to the Health Palace." ā€

"Oh?" Sun Hao asked strangely, "I don't know what the valley master is looking for me." ā€

"No...... I don't know, you went...... You'll find out when you go. ā€

Sun Hao saw that he was shy, so he didn't ask much, so he followed him to the health palace.

When he arrived at the health hall, the medicine boy retreated, and Sun Hao walked in alone. In fact, having said that, this is the second time he has come here, and it is also the second time he has seen the valley master, and he doesn't know much about this valley master.

He secretly reminded Huo Lao in his heart: "Huo Lao, you be careful, don't show your feet." ā€

Huo Lao nodded, tightened his senses, and said in a low voice, "It's okay, he won't find me so easily." ā€

Sun Hao walked in with peace of mind, and saw the valley lord sitting alone in the main hall, bored playing with a small wine glass.

He saw Sun Hao come in and said with a smile: "Sun Hao, you are here, sit down." ā€

Sun Hao gave a salute and sat on a futon, waiting for the valley lord to speak.

I only heard the valley lord say in a harmonious voice: "Sun Hao, do you know what I am looking for you for." ā€

Sun Hao shook his head and did not speak.

The valley lord smiled mysteriously, leaned forward slightly, and whispered to Sun Hao: "I came this time to ask you to do me a favor, do you know why I want you to enter the ice cave." ā€

Without waiting for Sun Hao to reply, he continued: "What I fancy is your alchemy qualifications. ā€œ

Sun Hao glanced up at the valley master suspiciously, expressing puzzlement.

The valley lord's voice was a little low: "Sixty years ago, when the ice cave was opened last time, our disciples of the Medicine Valley went there and found an alchemy site, and they wanted to enter it. ā€

"But there is a seal at that site, and there is a stone tablet left outside, which says that the conditions for entering the site are to find a monk with excellent alchemy qualifications to open the seal. ā€

"But although each of those disciples is an excellent alchemy talent, no one has been able to open the seal, and in the end they can only return in vain, so I have continued to recruit disciples over the years, hoping to find a disciple with very good alchemy qualifications to go there and take out the treasure in it. ā€

"To tell you the truth, that birth promotion technique is the qualification test method they brought out from there last time, and only monks who can reach more than seven years of birth have the ability to open the seal, but even I can only give birth for five years, and I can't save it anymore. I even let it out and said that this technique was an unearthly thaumaturgy, and it was a hereditary spell of my Medicine Valley, but it didn't attract real alchemy wizards. ā€

"Originally, I was going to give up, but I accidentally recruited you as a disciple, and now, do you understand why I want you to enter the ice cave? Sun Hao!"
