Chapter 3206: Chapter 3205: Obtaining Treasures, Refining the Blood Soul Crystal Stone

In the profound and mysterious Ice Well, Lin Dong and Yun Che continued forward, searching for treasures in the deepest depths.

The surrounding cold ice shimmered with a ghostly chill, as if harboring countless unknown secrets.

As they delved deeper, the surrounding cold became increasingly intense, as if it were about to freeze their very blood.

Suddenly, a strange light appeared ahead, shining particularly brilliantly in the dark Ice Well.

Lin Dong and Yun Che exchanged a glance, surprise flashing in their eyes, and quickened their pace toward the source of the light.

When they arrived at the light, they couldn’t help but be shocked by the scene before them.

A treasure box made from Ten Thousand Years Cold Ice Marrow floated quietly in mid-air, emitting a gentle yet mysterious glow.

The Ten Thousand Years Cold Ice Marrow is a rare supreme treasure in the world, with a hardness and energy content beyond imagination; using it to craft a treasure box, the treasures within must be extraordinary.

However, the treasure box was shrouded in a layer of invisible force, making it impossible to see what was hidden inside.

Just as Lin Dong was about to ask about the ownership of the treasure, Yun Che preemptively said:

"Why don’t you take this treasure? After all, you discovered this Ice Well, and it was you who ultimately slaughtered that phoenix-form ghost beast, so this treasure rightfully belongs to you."

Lin Dong was slightly taken aback. He hadn’t expected Yun Che to so readily give the treasure to him.

In his impression, strong individuals often have a strong possessiveness towards treasures, but Yun Che was so magnanimous.

A surge of respect arose in Lin Dong’s heart, and not being overly polite, he stepped forward and carefully stored the treasure box into the Dragon Ring Space.

Moments after Lin Dong secured the treasure, he suddenly felt a strong sense of impending danger.

Relying on his keen intuition, he immediately sensed that a change was looming in the Ice Well.

He quickly said to Yun Che, "Senior Yun Che, from what I understand, this Ice Well is about to collapse, and will generate a terrifying mental power crush. We must leave here immediately."

Yun Che’s expression turned serious, he too felt the impending danger.

He quickly conjured a protective shield, covering both himself and Lin Dong.

The protective shield emitted a gentle glow, like an unbreakable barrier.

The two dared not delay in the slightest, immediately employing their movement technique, heading toward the Ice Well’s exit.

Just as they flew out, the Ice Well indeed began to collapse.

Huge blocks of ice fell, creating deafening noise.

Simultaneously, a terrifying mental force pressed in from all sides, as if trying to crush them.

Lin Dong’s heart tightened, he initially wanted to use his tri-color spiritual power to help Yun Che resist the mental pressure.

However, upon seeing Yun Che’s protective shield, he realized he had completely overestimated the situation.

Yun Che, worthy of being at the peak of the secondary ancestor, summoned an incredibly powerful defense, and the terrifying mental pressure only caused a slight tremor on the shield, unable to penetrate it.

Lin Dong silently marveled, gaining a deeper understanding of Yun Che’s strength.

Under Yun Che’s protection, they smoothly flew out of the Ice Well. Standing outside, looking at the continuously collapsing Ice Well, they couldn’t help but heave a sigh of relief.

Yun Che withdrew the protective shield and said to Lin Dong, "You should first refine that Blood Soul Crystal Stone to enhance your spiritual power, then we can look for the entrance to the Fourth Heaven."

Lin Dong furrowed his brows slightly, feeling a bit hesitant.

He asked, "Wouldn’t this delay your time?"

He knew well that Yun Che had his own mission, which was to stop Fengtian from releasing the Blood Ancestor, and time might be very tight for him.

Yun Che sighed inwardly. By this point, he knew stopping Fengtian from releasing the Blood Ancestor was somewhat unrealistic.

Fengtian was clearly familiar with the Nine-layered Heaven Tower, able to directly find the entrance to each level and ascend as quickly as possible.

But he couldn’t do that; perhaps by now, Fengtian had already reached the Ninth Heaven level of the tower.

Even if he were to chase at top speed, it would be too late.

However, he didn’t share this with Lin Dong.

He didn’t want Lin Dong to bear too much burden or get distracted because of his own affairs.

So, he laughingly said, "There’s no rush at this moment, you should quickly boost your strength, the future of the human Martial Arts World will depend on you."

This was his inner thought, although he had witnessed many geniuses, and there were quite a few promising seedlings in the Hidden Clan Sect, with a thousand-year myth potential.

But compared to Lin Dong, they were unmatched.

If Lin Dong were to truly grow, he would become the strongest existence in human Martial Arts history.

Even the Blood Ancestor would not be his match. Currently, his biggest concern was whether Lin Dong would have enough time to grow.

At this moment, Lin Dong also knew what was most important for him now.

That was to enhance his strength.

Only by being strong enough himself, no matter how the future changes, he would have enough confidence, without any fear.

Subsequently, Lin Dong wasn’t pretentious, and he found a quiet place to sit cross-legged.

He took out the Blood Soul Crystal Stone from the Dragon Ring Space; the crystal stone resembled a star intertwined with ice and fire, inside it flowed patterns of ghostly blue and crimson red.

This was precisely the dual blood soul crystal stone containing both spiritual ice and fire elements.

And it was at the fifty-fourth rank, the spiritual energy within it was as vast as the sea.

If Lin Dong could refine it, he was confident he could elevate his spiritual power to the forty-ninth rank peak, strongest below the fiftieth rank!

Lin Dong took a deep breath, his eyes revealing determination and anticipation.

His current spiritual power was at forty-nine and a half ranks, just one step away from the forty-ninth rank peak, and this dual blood soul crystal stone was the key to his breakthrough.

He slowly extended his hands, cradling the crystal stone in his palms, and the intertwining power of ice and fire surged into his body through his arms, causing him to involuntarily shiver, but he quickly steadied his mind.

He slowly closed his eyes and began to activate the mysterious and unique Nine Shift Longevity secret cultivation method.

The moment the cultivation method was activated, he felt his inner spiritual power awaken like a giant dragon, roaring and charging through his meridians.

The dual blood soul crystal stone in his hands also seemed to feel the summons of this power, glowing increasingly brilliant, and the ice and fire elements flowed like two nimble ribbons through his hands into his body, then converging into his sea of consciousness.

In the sea of consciousness, the initially calm sea of spiritual power suddenly surged into a turbulent wave.

The moment the ice and fire elements entered, it was like two stones thrown into a calm lake, stirring up ripples.

Wherever the ice element reached, the spiritual power seemed frozen, forming pieces of crystal clear ice crystals.

Meanwhile, the fire element was like blazing flames, wildly burning amidst the ice crystals, the ice and fire colliding and intertwining, emitting a "sizzling" sound.

Amidst this chaotic fusion of ice and fire, three fully blossomed Spirit Force Black Lotuses stood calmly in the center of the sea of consciousness, exuding deep and mysterious light.

The fourth Spirit Force Black Lotus, though also fully bloomed with nine petals, had its ninth petal somewhat incomplete, with some flaws and deficiencies.

Next, Lin Dong’s task was to cultivate this Spirit Force Black Lotus to perfection; once perfected, this would signify that Lin Dong had cultivated his spiritual power to the forty-ninth rank peak...
