Chapter 522 – Reencounter
Although it was currently the peak of the Aurora Explosion, the aurora zone would only extend to a few dozen kilometers in the vast ice plains. Even though it was high up in the sky, it was not easy to find in time, and even if it was found, it was not easy to reach there in time.
Previously, Yang Junshan had used his advantage that he had to fuse the Primary Magnetic Force into that Aurora Belt, and had pretty much cultivated up to a fifth of the Primary Magnetic Treasure Light’s ability.
In reality, if it was any other technique that he was training in, this much of the Primary Magnetic Force was already enough for cultivators to raise the power of the technique, not to mention that Yang Junshan had refined and refined it while he was still in the process of refining it. Due to the excessive purification of the Original Energy, a large amount of Aurora had been wasted, and he had even angered the other cultivators who were collecting the Origin Energy.
However, ever since he met with danger two days ago, during the entire two days of time, Yang Junshan had been wandering in the depths of the ice plains, but never once did he encounter the situation where Aurora erupted again.
Fortunately, Yang Junshan had the ice silkworm in his hands, although he had not met Aurora, he managed to find another Ice Fox’s lair and an ice bear’s lair.
Especially after he discovered the nest of an ice bear, afteuge battle to chase away that ice bear, Yang Junshan reaped another piece of ice origin energy stone.
Because he did not want to miss the possibility of Aurora exploding deep within the ice plains, Yang Junshan did not refine the Cold Ice Essence Stone. Instead, he searched the entire ice plains along the way.
Originally, Yang Junshan was only a little curious about the Frigid Eagle that was holding onterson while it was flying in mid air. Suddenly, it launched a sneak attack from above the ice plains, and killed the Frigid Eagle that had lost all its agility and energy. Only then did Yang Junshan realize that the person who was being grabbed by the Frigid Eagle was no other than the Adept Jing Yuan that was previously teamed up with Yang Junshan.
Putting a Pei-Yuan spirit pellet into his mouth, protecting the essence energy in his dantian, Yang Junshan used his own master to help him expel the cold energy that had seeped into his body after falling unconscious in the air, causing Adept Jing Yuan to slowly wake up.
Seeing that it was Yang Junshan who had saved him, Adept Jing Yuan’s face revealed a look of shame, and he immediately bowed to express his thanks.
Yang Junshan asked him about what had happened in the past few days. Only now did he know what had happened to him that day after he had been sneak-attacked and left the battle formation.
Speaking of which, Yang Junshan actually benefited from the disaster. Even though that person was plotted against, not only was he forced to fight against the outstanding cultivators, he was also chased by seven Frigid Eagle s. Aesult, the number of eagles was reduced by half, and the pressure on the other cultivators was greatly reduced.
However, the good news did not last long. Just as the remaining cultivators easily blocked the surprise attack of the ten Frigid Eaglnd prepared to counterattack, another group of eagles were attracted by the laser beam and they numbered more than before.
The seven or eight people who had been thinking of joining hands to exterminate the falcons realized the situation was getting out of hand. They immediately retreated in an attempt to give way to the Aurora Belt, which was already in chaos, to escape the falcons’ pursuit.
However, not all of the remaining seven Spiritual Masters had the ability of Yang Junshan to fight against seven people. The battle group was instantly destroyed, and everyone fell into a state of self-defense, after Liu Qiu killed one Frigid Eagle, he was surrounded by four Frigid Eagle, and finally killed with two of them.
Adept Jing Yuan was luckier, although he relied on a secret treasure given by his sect to break out of the encirclement, he did not manage to shake off the Frigid Eagle that was chasing him from behind. Furthermore, that sect secret treasure had consumed a large amount of his vitality, so he was unable to escape from the two Frigid Eaglven after running for two days.
When the two Frigid Eagle caught up to him, he did his best to kill one of them but ultimately lost consciousness and was captured by the other Frigid Eagle. If not for his life, and if not for Yang Junshan saving him, the Middle Earth would probably have already become food for the Frigid Eagle to feed the young falcon.
After listening to Adept Jing Yuan’s story, the other things were fine, but there was one thing that made Yang Junshan brooding over it, so he asked: “I still need to ask fellow cultivator, what is the identity of the person behind the sneak attack, why did he sneak attack me, is he not from Snow Wind Sword Sect?”
After hearing Yang Junshan’s question, he heard him say with a bitter smile: “Although he is not a cultivator from Snow Wind Sword Sect, but he is not far off. He is the patriarch of a powerful family in Bingzhou, and belongs to a family under Snow Wind Sword Sect’s jurisdiction, so I believe that I obtained information about the grudges between fellow cultivator and Qi Min, and other Successor Disciples from Snow Wind Sword Sect.
After Adept Jing Yuan said this much, he seemed to be a little tired. He took a deep breath and said: “However, Fellow, you don’t need to go and seek revenge on this person. I saw with my own eyes that the person was surrounded and killed by seven or eight Frigid Eagle s.
Yang Junshan seemed to have thought of something and said: “Does that mean that at least half of the cultivators in the Liang Zhou would attack me at any time when they see me?”
The influence of the Snow Wind Sword Sect spread to the three counties in the north of the Liang Zhou, and the entire Liang Zhou was only six counties. Offending the Snow Wind Sword Sect meant that Yang Junshan had offended half of the cultivators in the north of the Liang Zhou.
The Adept Jing Yuan laughed bitterly and said, “At this time, there are many foreign cultivators who came from the depths of the ice plains, and there are even rumors that there are people who snuck into the ice plains. At this time, the situation in the depths of the ice plains is very complicated, Snow Wind Sword Sect probably wouldn’t do anything just for fellow cultivator, as long as fellow cultivator doesn’t reveal his identity in front of the cultivators of the Snow Wind Sword Sect, there shouldn’t be any danger.”
Yang Junshan nodded his head, then asked: “What do you plan to do next, with how you are injured, I am afraid it is not good for you to stay in the ice plains for long.”
The Adept Jing Yuan said somewhat embarrassedly, “Actually, this one has already sent out a secret distress talisman to the sect. Our sect has sent quite a few Spiritual Masters into the depths of the ice plains this time, and there should be people who have received the message and rushed over by now.”
Yang Junshan nodded his head, this was a normal thing to do, if he were in Su Yun’s place, he would have probably kepand in the shadows.
Yang Junshan placed the Adept Jing Yuan inside an ice cave while he himself waited outside the ice cave. A moment later, he streaked across the sky, straight towards the Adept Jing Yuan, and descended straight in his direction. Two cultivators filled with enmity appeared in front of Yang Junshan, and one of them was actually someone he recognized.
Adept Jing Chen’s heart tightened the moment he saw Yang Junshan, and he said coldly: “It’s you?”
The attitude of the Adept Jing Chen directly affected the cultivator that came with him, and he immediately brandished his treasure to attack Yang Junshan.
“Assistant, Junior Brother Jing Sen, cough cough …”
Adept Jing Yuan had already known when the two had arrived. He was holding onto the ice cave wall as he staggered out of the cave, and said, “It was Taoist Yang who saved me!”
Seeing that the Adept Jing Yuan was still there, the two of them heaved a sigh of relief first. After hearing his general story, the Jindan Stage Daoist who had tried to attack Yang Junshan at the start said in shame, “I nearly misunderstood Fellow Daoist, I am truly very sorry. I also need to thank Fellow Daoist for saving my Senior Brother.
Yang Junshan laughed and said: “It’s fine, since the two of you are here, I’ll leave Fellow Daoist Pure Yuan to the two of you. I still need to waste some time in the ice plains, so I can’t stay any longer.”
“I heard that Taoist Yang had a bad relationship with Snow Wind Sword Sect, and that there are many forces in the Ice Plains present. Thus, this Snow Wind Sword Sect will not pay any attention to you, but once fellow cultivator leaves the Ice Plains, fellow cultivator will remember to head south from the Ning Prefecture.”
Yang Junshan was puzzled when he heard it.
Just as Daoist Master Jisheng was about to explain, he saw the Adept Jing Chen at the side give him a meaningful glance, causing him to chuckle. He then said somewhat embarrassedly, “Taoist Yang remembers that the danger of leaving Ning County would be lower. As for the reason, Fellow Daoist, you will naturally know when the time comes.”
Yang Junshan could tell that the three of them seemed to have something hard to say. Although he was curious, he still changed the topic and laughed: “I will remember, but I still have to ask the two of you. In the past few days, have you seen an Aurora’s explosion in the depths of the ice plains?
Adept Jing Chen shook his head when he heard that, and said: “Yesterday, I encountered a small-scale explosion of Aurora, the light belt spread out for about ten li, and now, it has been completely snatched away by the cultivators who rushed over long ago.”
Daoist Master Jisheng replied, “When I came here, I saw a faint red light several dozen miles away from here. However, I was worried about Senior Brother Jingyuan at that time, so I didn’t go and confirm it because I didn’t know if it was the Aurora that burst forth.”
When Adept Jing Yuan heard this, he gratefully forgot to look at Spiritual Master Jisheng. However, Yang Junshan’s spirits were lifted, and he said, “Let’s not delay this any further. I will be leaving first.”
The Adept Jing Chen laughed, “Fellow cultivator, please go first. Every time the Primary Magnetic Force appears, it would attract a lot of cultivators to fight over it. Today, there are many more Adept Realm Cultivator that have gathered in the depths of the ice plains than in the past.
Watching Yang Junshan’s figure disappear into the wind and snow, Adept Jing Chen’s expression turned serious as he said, “Junior Brother Jing Sen, although we’ve succeeded in that matter, it’s difficult to protect the additional damage that will be caused if the news were to leak out. Junior Brother, you shouldn’t have done that this time!”
“I am grateful that he saved Senior Jing Yuan. Thinking of the conflict between him and the Snow Wind Sword Sect, my brain warmed up and reminded him of this. Isn’t this information kept hidden?”
Adept Jing Chen stared at him, and upon seeing this, Adept Jing Yuan quickly said: “Forget it, let’s just treat it as giving him a favor. No matter what, this matter happened because of me, so it’s not like Junior Brother Jing Sen, this good person’s senior brother, does not know.”
