After watching carefully, he couldn't help but say: "The area around this Secret Realm is the activity range of evil cultivators. It is very likely that we will be attacked by evil cultivators. Isn't it a bit inappropriate to do this?"

"If you don't enter the tiger's den, how can you get the tiger's cub? It's in the territory of evil cultivators, but I believe they definitely won't take action. Don't talk nonsense. If you can't even beat an evil cultivator among the same tier, don't say you are from the Wuqu Academy. Do you hear me?"

The two agreed and followed the map to the Secret Realm. Just after entering the Secret Realm, they found it was a world of ice and snow, without any other creatures. The boundless cold ice almost froze Wan Shitong to death. Fortunately, with the help of the Nine Nether Nether Flame, he could barely resist it.

Just at this moment, a huge ice dragon rushed towards them. Its cultivation was at the high-stage of the Demon King, which made the two have to choose to respond cautiously.

"Boss, this should be the legendary ice dragon, transformed from the essence blood of the Extreme Ice Divine Dragon. If we can defeat this ice dragon, we can obtain the essence blood and help practice the Ice God Spear Technique."

Chen Ang considered for a while and said: "Leave this thing to you to solve. It just so happens that the Nine Nether Nether Flame restrains the ice dragon. There shouldn't be any problems, right?"

"Hehe, Boss, watch me."

After speaking, he summoned the Nine Nether Nether Flame, which turned into more than a dozen chains to control the ice dragon. It wanted to struggle to the death but had no way and couldn't escape at all.

He shouted loudly, "Burn!"

The chains transformed by the Nine Nether Nether Flame began to burn. The ice dragon couldn't resist and wailed in pain for a period of time. With unwillingness and anger, it turned into a drop of golden essence blood.

Just as Chen Ang was about to reach out to take it, a fierce attack rushed over, which was easily blocked. A black-robed person walked out from the dark. His strength was about the same; he should be at the Spirit Realm level.

"My name is Xie Dong. I am particularly interested in this kind of Extreme Ice Divine Dragon essence blood. I wonder if the two can raise your hands high and give me some face? Don't worry, the reward will definitely not be less."

"No way. This essence blood was obtained by our brothers with hard work. Wanting to get something for nothing like this is indeed a bit inappropriate. We have to pay attention to first come, first served, right?"

"Either hand over the items, or stay in this Secret Realm forever. I can see that the two have strong strength, but I have the confidence to kill you without leaving any traces."

"Don't forget this is the territory of evil cultivators. Two from the Wuqu Academy are obviously looking for death. There is a path to heaven, but you don't take it. Hand over the Extreme Ice Divine Dragon essence blood and I will let you leave."

Wan Shitong was about to take action but was stopped by Chen Ang, who said: "After dealing with the ice dragon just now, there shouldn't be much power left in your body, right? Just leave this evil cultivator to Boss to handle."

Xie Dong erupted with Spirit Realm cultivation. Fighting two with the same level was not a problem at all. If they really fought, he wouldn't be afraid at all, but he underestimated the genius in front of him.

Chen Ang used the Ice God Spear Technique to attack continuously. The Breaking Array Qilin Spear had been strengthened by a master craftsman some time ago and was almost like a divine artifact. Plus the help of god-level techniques, he would definitely be able to win.

Xie Dong didn't expect the Wuqu Academy to have such a powerful genius. He had killed quite a few before and was indeed a bit careless, but he wouldn't give up so easily.

After taking the pill, his cultivation directly improved to the peak of the Spirit Realm. He felt absolutely insulted and must kill Chen Ang. This kind of pill would stimulate his own potential and had particularly large side effects, but everything was worth it.

"Today, both of you must die. No one can stop me. Wuqu Academy, leave none!"

The powerful aura made the Secret Realm begin to collapse. Wan Shitong reminded: "Boss, take the essence blood and retreat. Don't bother with this madman. If the Secret Realm collapses, we won't be able to get out. Run quickly!"

466: Tenglong Firm

The two left the Secret Realm with the Extreme Ice Divine Dragon essence blood, but Xie Dong lost his mind due to taking the pill and was buried in the Secret Realm. There was no way to rescue him.

Wan Shitong said luckily: "Boss, fortunately we ran fast just now, otherwise we would have died here today. The Secret Realm is indeed unstable. That Xie Dong is really a madman, actually thinking of perishing together. It's too dangerous. Let's go back first."

The Evil King heard the movement and rushed over, saying: "Leaving? Killing the people of the evil cultivators and obtaining the treasures of the evil cultivators, wanting to leave safely is somewhat impossible. After so many years of disputes with the Wuqu Academy, it's time to settle it."

Teacher Xing Tian came forward to block the Evil King's attack and said: "Evil King, long time no see, still the same old look. Wanting to kill the students of the Wuqu Academy, didn't you see that I am still here?"

"Hmph, Teacher Xing Tian, you must give a reasonable explanation for this matter. Xie Dong is a genius of the heart. A large amount of cultivation resources have been consumed over the years, and he was killed just like that. I am particularly unwilling. You must give an explanation, otherwise, it's hard to let you leave."

"What does it have to do with me? I want to see how your cultivation is recently and if there is any possibility of progress. Let's spar. It definitely won't work without seeing blood."

The evil cultivators had few people. If they really fought with the Wuqu Academy, there was no possibility at all, so they chose to swallow their anger and not choose to resist. They obediently let the few leave, enduring humiliation and bearing heavy burdens, just waiting for an opportunity.

After leaving the territory of the evil cultivators and being truly safe, Teacher Xing Tian exhorted: "You two can really cause trouble, actually attracting the attention of the Evil King. Fortunately, Li Lao was worried about your safety and told me to meet you in advance."

"Be careful next time and don't be stupid. You have so many life-saving trump cards on you; why keep them? Use them if you can. How is it? Did you get the Extreme Ice Divine Dragon essence blood?"

"Don't worry, we successfully obtained the essence blood. Next, we will go back to refine it. Thank you for your help, Master. I will definitely pay attention in the future."

After returning to the Wuqu Academy, they began to refine it. When the Extreme Ice Divine Dragon essence blood entered the body, a lot of ice mist appeared on the body surface, and the surrounding temperature increased sharply.

He found that his blood began to solidify. He used his cultivation to resist, but it had no effect. The power of the essence blood was quite terrifying, and even his own spiritual power was affected to a certain extent, but he didn't want to be controlled by the essence blood.

Helpless, he used all his strength to force the essence blood remaining in his body to one place, trying not to let it spread throughout his body, but he was unable to turn the tide.

Wan Shitong, who was observing outside, was also anxious. He didn't know what to do. "Master Teacher Xing Tian, what's going on? Boss won't have any life danger, right?"

He exhorted: "Don't worry. Chen Ang, this kid, has great fortune. This bit of essence blood shouldn't be a problem. Whether he can pass through depends on his fortune; we can't interfere too much."

"The essence blood of this level of divine dragon is of a very high degree. It is very troublesome to absorb it completely. If he can pass this hurdle, it will be twice the result with half the effort to practice the Ice God Spear Technique in the future."

"Originally, I was prepared to tell my disciple before absorbing it, but I was afraid of increasing his psychological burden, so I didn't say it. Don't worry, there is a backup plan. This Divine Fire Bead can save his life at a critical moment. Unless it is a last resort, I will absolutely not use it."

Seeing that there was a guarantee, Wan Shitong felt relieved, but Chen Ang was suffering. He was still struggling hard. He knew that he must save himself at this time; it was impossible for others to help.

He refined the essence blood with all his heart. After a period of effort, he finally succeeded. His cultivation broke through to the high-stage of the Mountain and River Realm in one fell swoop, which neither of them reacted to. A dragon totem appeared on his right arm, which should be caused by refining the essence blood.

He asked: "Master, what's going on? I was always thinking of suppressing my cultivation, but why did I suddenly break through to the high-stage of the Spirit Realm? Suppression had no effect."

"Hahaha, disciple, this is your opportunity. Don't worry. I have checked it carefully, and there are no problems. You need to stabilize it well next."

It took half a day to stabilize the foundation completely. Using the Ice God Spear Technique was obviously much smoother than before. Sometimes he felt that this totem had a certain connection with the Ice God Spear Technique.

Every time he used the spear technique, the totem on his right arm would appear, giving powerful force. This point made Chen Ang particularly shocked, but the current situation didn't give any reaction time. Taking advantage of the hot hand feeling, he began to practice diligently.

There will be a higher breakthrough in the future. The essence blood hasn't been completely absorbed yet. There is still a period of time before complete absorption, and this time is just a buffer period. Settling these powers completely has great benefits for himself.

Teacher Xing Tian saw that Chen Ang had recovered and said: "Not bad, brat. This mission was successfully completed. Practice the Ice God Spear Technique well; it will have great use in the future."

"The Tenglong Firm is selling a batch of cultivation materials. You two represent the Wuqu Academy to participate. If there is anything you want, buy it. Don't worry, the academy will reimburse you; there won't be any problems."

Wan Shitong quickly said: "Don't worry, Master Teacher Xing Tian. I won't say anything else, but the cultivation resources sold by the Tenglong Firm are definitely not simple. They are all good things. Perhaps it is a good opportunity to make a name for ourselves."

"Why haven't I heard of this Tenglong Firm? Is it very famous?"

"Boss, it is particularly famous. Its strength is powerful, and its intelligence is extensive. Mainly, if the money is in place, they have everything. They can go to heaven and enter the earth, omnipotent. It's a bit exaggerated, but it's about the same."

"It is a very terrifying force composed of a group of merchants. As the old saying goes, money can make ghosts push the mill. The bodyguards hired every year are not a few. Generally, few people make trouble at the Tenglong Firm."

"What's more, the Tenglong Firm has a high prestige. In those years, the elders of the Baili family wanted to take action against the Tenglong Firm, but the family they were in was wiped out, leaving none."

"Later, various families also blocked them, but they were all ruthlessly rejected, which also made everyone understand the Tenglong Firm's dissatisfaction with the Baili family. But after all, they acted smoothly and intimidated and compensated those families that had blocked them, making their reputation soar!"

"The most critical thing is that every year the Tenglong Firm takes out a batch of very precious cultivation resources for sale. Even god-level techniques like the Ice God Spear Technique are possible. If I guessed correctly, there should be a certain connection between the Tenglong Firm and the Wuqu Academy, right?"

Teacher Xing Tian said: "That's right, there is indeed a connection between the two. Every year, the items of the academy in the Sin Prison need to be sold by the Tenglong Firm, and many who have graduated from the academy work in the Tenglong Firm. The relationship is definitely close, mutual benefit, who wouldn't want it?"

"Hahaha, I knew it. I found it through some clues. The Wuqu Academy is indeed not simple."

467: Old Man's Identity

Arriving at the Tenglong Firm, they were shocked by the scene in front of them. It was indeed quite magnificent. Even the guards at the door were at the initial stage of the Spirit Realm, let alone the bodyguards inside.

They indeed had some strength. They wanted to go in but were blocked. Wan Shitong took out the Dragon family's token, and the two were let in. Just after entering the Tenglong Firm, they felt a particularly terrifying aura rushing towards them from behind.

"Brother Long Jie, Boss, he is my cousin. Currently, he works in this place. Brother Long Jie is one of the top geniuses of the Dragon family, and his strength is very terrifying."

"Cousin, today we two want to see what suitable treasures are here. Can you recommend some?"

"The first three floors of the Tenglong Firm can be chosen at will. As for the fourth floor, you can also go, but they are precious items, and the cost consumed is very large. Generally, it is not recommended to go."

Wan Shitong's eyes lit up and he said: "Are there any divine artifacts appearing this time, or divine artifacts are fine too."

"There are divine artifacts, said to be from the ancient period, but there are many people competing. I estimate they will be sold in the form of an auction at night, but that is a matter for big shots to consider. You think too much."

"The first floor and the second floor are the free trade zones of the Tenglong Firm. They will charge a certain stall fee. You can put the things you want to sell here, and there will be specialized people to protect them."

"After the transaction is reached, they will extract one-tenth of the profit as protection for safety outside. The third floor is the goods of the Tenglong Firm itself, and the fourth floor should be out of reach. The main purpose this time is concentrated on the first two floors."

"Some people can make a fortune on the first two floors, and some can lose money and cry bitterly. What to do depends on your own choice. There are still some important matters, so I will leave first. If you have any problems, just go directly to the staff and mention your cousin's name."

After Long Jie left, Chen Ang asked: "Wan Shitong, how is your cousin's strength? He is young and not simple at all. He is definitely more than the Spirit Realm, right?"

"Hehe, Boss, you guessed right. My cousin's strength has reached the high-stage of the Sovereign Realm, one step away from the peak. He is a unique genius of the Dragon family."

"You should also know that the Dragon family is a big family. He didn't choose to compete for the position of family head, but instead worked as a guard here. It seems there is a hidden reason, but I can't say exactly what the reason is."

"They are not simple. Let's stroll around the first two floors this time. I have a premonition that there are treasures we want on the first two floors. We must take them down."

"Haha, since Boss has spoken, let's go take a look. The first two floors are mixed with fish and dragons, but there are indeed many good things."

The two strolled for a while on the first floor. Chen Ang was attracted by a purple feather in front of him. He didn't know what this thing was, but he always felt like he had seen it somewhere.

The stall owner was an old man, and he couldn't tell what cultivation the old man had. He asked: "Senior, I want to take this feather. I don't know what the price is?"

The old man couldn't help but say: "I didn't expect to meet someone who knows goods today. This feather was found in a special Secret Realm. I also studied it hard for a period of time, wanting to seek the secret inside, but found nothing. If you want to obtain it, it's easy to say. Just provide me with a god-level technique."

Chen Ang couldn't help but say: "Senior, are you joking? I won't say anything else, but god-level techniques are rare in the entire Perished World. I am a junior at the high-stage of the Spirit Realm. Where can I get a god-level technique? It is indeed a bit difficult for a strong man."

"Impossible, right? You two don't look simple. At your age, I didn't even have the Spirit Realm realm. I can clearly feel that you have an ice-attribute god-level technique on you."

"I tested the aura on you. That's right, it is indeed the technique I thought of. If you are willing to exchange, you can do it now. If you are not willing, forget it. Don't affect my business."

Wan Shitong, standing to the side, was a bit unhappy and said: "How valuable is a god-level technique? It's worth a city. You just want to take it away with this feather. It's a bit unrealistic."

The old man said with a smile: "All who come are guests. I won't force you. If you are not willing, you can leave. No one will block you at all. Some things, you know, depend on fate. If you miss it, you won't have a chance."

Chen Ang was particularly entangled. He always felt like he had seen that purple feather somewhere, but he couldn't say exactly where. But if he used it to exchange for a god-level technique, the risk and benefit were too high, which was a bit inappropriate.

After discussing with Wan Shitong, the two finally decided to go further away to take a look and come back after a period of time. Anyway, god-level techniques are not so easy to obtain.

Seeing that they were about to leave, he quickly said: "How about this? How about this? Besides this purple feather, there are some precious cultivation resources in this space ring, plus my three promises. What do you think?"

"Senior, everyone knows you are powerful, but whether your three promises are valuable or not is not certain. The risk is too great, completely not worth it."

"My name is Li Qinglian. You should have heard of my name, right? The clothes you are wearing should be related to the Wuqu Academy. The Old Dean and I are figures of the same period, with a senior-junior brother relationship. You should be able to find out. I don't deceive children or old people. If you don't believe me, you can go check."

Wan Shitong, standing to the side, immediately explained: "Li Qinglian, could it be that legendary adult? I didn't expect to see the real person today. The junior is honored."
