第三千七百零三章 宝蛇与冰魄

Meanwhile, back at the Immortal Welcoming Palace, Lin Xuan returned to his cave dwelling and visibly relaxed.

He never expected that the Two Ancients of Heaven and Earth were such cunning cultivators.

Seeing the situation turn unfavorable, they proactively sought him out, mending their broken relationship and reconciling with each other.

A handshake and peace agreement?

Lin Xuan was more than willing to accept this.

After all, no one wanted to create an enemy for nothing.

He still worried that during the Peach Blossom Feast, his opponents might deliberately make things difficult for him.

Now it seemed such concerns were unnecessary; instead, they had offered assistance.

That was great!

With the Two Ancients of Heaven and Earth's support, if he encountered desirable treasures or cultivation techniques at the Peach Blossom Feast, his chances of obtaining them would significantly increase.

He wasn't worried about their insincere behavior; he trusted his judgment on people.

The only regret was that he couldn’t take this opportunity to probe into the Silk Robe Jade Talisman.

Actually, Lin Xuan had considered a roundabout approach, but the Two Ancients of Heaven and Earth were not easily fooled. A wrong move could backfire, so after weighing the pros and cons, he decided against it for now.

He would find another chance later.

Lin Xuan continued to sit cross-legged, this time not to recover his power, but to gain insights from facing a domain powerhouse up close.

Such inspiration shouldn't be wasted; perhaps he could push his strength to the next level.

It wouldn’t be easy, but without trying, how would anyone know?

There was still some time before the Peach Blossom Feast began. With nothing else to do, Lin Xuan decided to seize this opportunity for cultivation.

...

At another secret room in a different cave dwelling of the Immortal Welcoming Palace, two figures were whispering in hushed tones.

"Big Sister, have you heard? That Lin boy also came to the Peach Blossom Feast," a voice with some allure said.

"What! Lin boy is here too. How did he get the qualification for the Peach Blossom Feast? Could this little guy have advanced to the late-stage Transcendation?" another cold voice replied as she slowly turned her head.

It was a tall woman, beautiful and young, with long silver hair reaching down to her waist.

Ice Spirit!

This must be one of the True Demon Primordial Beings. The other voice's owner could only be known as

Precious Snake!

These two had also come to the Peach Blossom Feast. Given their status as True Demon Primordial Beings, they naturally had the right to reside in the Immortal Welcoming Palace.

"Big Sister guessed correctly. This Lin boy has not only advanced to late-stage Transcendation but is incredibly powerful, almost on par with a domain powerhouse."

"What? On par with a domain?"

Ice Spirit was taken aback and then burst into a silent laugh: "Sister Precious Snake, I know you hate Lin Xuan to the core, but there's no need to exaggerate. Ordinary late-stage Transcendation beings cannot match a domain even Arur had that ability."

"Even if their realms are similar, whether they possess domains makes all the difference. Challenging across realms is nothing special; I don't believe that Lin boy can challenge a domain."

"Big Sister, I exaggerated a bit, but this Lin boy is far more extraordinary than you imagine. Facing Jihe Immortal alone with just his sword, he didn’t fall behind at all, and even when the other used a domain, he was helpless," Precious Snake quickly explained.

"Is that so?"

Ice Spirit listened in silence before slowly closing her eyes.

Precious Snake’s face showed a hint of surprise. Could Big Sister be preparing to use a secret technique capable of reversing the laws of heaven and earth?

Indeed, a white mist emerged from Ice Spirit's body.

Another Ice Spirit Primordial Being appeared, resembling but not being an actual entity, formed by her three souls and six spirits.

In the next moment, she transformed into a gentle breeze, leaving the cave dwelling.

Instantly, she arrived at the location where Lin Xuan had clashed with the Two Ancients of Heaven and Earth yesterday.

Ice Spirit raised her hand.

A surge of power flowed throughout her body, and an invisible wave spread out, causing space to ripple.

An incredible scene unfolded.

The originally calm air transformed into a colorful scroll. The events that happened here yesterday were vividly displayed before her eyes.

Time Law!

Ice Spirit was indeed one of the top True Demon Primordial Beings.

She had mastered Time Law to such an extent; she could replay the events from yesterday.

...

On the other side, Ice Spirit opened her eyes in the cave dwelling.

"Big Sister, how is it? You've seen this with your own eyes. Do you believe that little sister didn't lie about Lin boy's strength?"

"Mm."

This time, Ice Spirit nodded: "What you said is right. This Lin boy can no longer be ignored. While his current power isn’t overwhelming, he still poses a significant threat to us. The issue is how fast he’s growing; if left unchecked, he will eventually become an internal enemy."

"Oh, so Big Sister plans to act?"

Precious Snake's face showed excitement. She had hated Lin Xuan for a long time.

"Indeed. This grudge between us needs to be settled sooner or later. Besides, the bracelet from Arur’s Seven Treasures is still in his possession; no matter what, I must reclaim it," Ice Spirit said calmly.

"When will you act?"

"At any moment. Impatience gets one nowhere. The Peach Blossom Feast isn't an option. After this, I won't let that little guy leave the Jade Pool alive."

"Big Sister has already made up your mind? Remember, although Lin boy himself is nothing special, he is True Dragon Immortal's sworn brother and has close ties with Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox and Cold Moon Immortal. We are in the Spirit Realm; don’t you fear retaliation from powerful beings here?"

"What do you mean by that, Precious Snake? Why keep probing me like this?"

Ice Spirit frowned slightly, showing a hint of displeasure.

"Big Sister, please don't misunderstand. I'm just worried because we can't act freely in the Spirit Realm. That's why we need to be cautious," Precious Snake quickly defended herself.

"Humph. What is there to worry about? Fear of wolves and tigers will only cause trouble. How can the Spirit Realm matter when this immortal girl isn’t a waste like the Two Ancients of Heaven and Earth? Even if True Dragon or the Lord of the Azure Qi Kingdom were here, what could they do to me after I extract his soul and refine it?"
