Chapter 761

Call your family's old ancestor out to speak!

The snow-clad woman still refused, and a white guqin appeared in her hand, ready to be activated.

In the next instant.

An aged voice sounded: "Xue'er, do not be rude!"

Soon, a gray-robed elder stepped out from a hidden place on the main star, leaning on a cane, his body bent, he stared at Lu Xuan and sized him up, emanating the aura of a one-star Sovereign Realm.

The gray-robed elder's expression eased a bit, and he said, "Ah, it's Fellow Daoist Lu Xuan. Sorry. My sect's Snow Flower Ancient Sect, Xue'er, has just been forcibly roused from closed-door cultivation; I didn't know Fellow Daoist Lu Xuan had graced our sect—what brings you?"

After the battle at the God-Burying Abyss, Lu Xuan's name gradually spread.

In that battle, Lu Xuan saved the Human Alliance.

Many elders and disciples of the Snow Flower Ancient Sect also thus saved their lives.

In theory, their Snow Flower Ancient Sect still owes Lu Xuan a favor.

However, in the gray-robed elder's heart, no matter how strong Lu Xuan is, he's still beneath the Sovereign Realm; although he played a part in the God-Burying Abyss battle, ultimately he merely relied on the Abyss's power, so calling him 'Fellow Daoist' is completely appropriate.

Lu Xuan said lightly, "Is this how your Snow Flower Ancient Sect treats guests?"

Hearing that, the gray-robed elder smirked, "Sorry, Fellow Daoist Lu Xuan, please come in."

With a boom, the Snow Flower Ancient Sect's formation closed, and the gray-robed elder ushered Lu Xuan and the others into an ice hall.

Everyone took their seats.

The gray-robed elder introduced, "Fellow Daoist Lu Xuan, I am Bingquan. Last time at the God-Burying Abyss, I still thank Fellow Daoist Lu Xuan for turning the tide and saving the Human Alliance; many in our Snow Flower Ancient Sect survived because of it."

Lu Xuan said lightly, "Just a small effort."

Bingquan Lao Zu's face twitched as he thought, "This Lu Xuan really can't stop boasting; saying he's formidable, he doesn't even modestly downplay it."

Shortly after, he pointed to the snow-clad woman bringing in the spiritual tea and said, "This is our sect's Luo Xue."

Luo Xue forced a smile and poured spiritual tea for Lu Xuan and the others.

Lu Xuan drank it all in one go and got straight to the point: "I've come this time to bring your Snow Flower Ancient Sect a promising seedling named Yang Ling'er."

Bingquan Lao Zu's cloudy eyes suddenly flashed with a sharp light as he probed Yang Ling'er, "Is it you?"

Yang Ling'er stood up somewhat nervously, "It's me, Ancestor!"

In the next instant, Bingquan Lao Zu's expression shifted slightly: "This girl's spiritual body is practically tailor-made for our Snow Flower Ancient Sect. Come here, let me take a look."

Yang Ling'er looked at Yang Xuan; Yang Xuan nodded, and Yang Ling'er walked toward Bingquan Lao Zu.

Lu Xuan, meanwhile, activated his Penetrating Eye and began to scout the Snow Flower Ancient Sect's land of opportunity.

Since we've brought Yang Ling'er here, we naturally must arrange the best opportunity for her!

Although she's not yet a disciple, what about the future?

Incidentally, Lu Xuan's gaze swept over Sect Master Luo Xue.

Ah… this…

My apologies, my apologies!

It was an unintentional act!

However, speaking frankly, Luo Xue's qualities in all aspects are not bad.

Not bad, just her hips are a bit big.

Lu Xuan muttered.

Not far away, Luo Xue's face flushed; just now she saw Lu Xuan's gaze sweep over her, she suddenly pricked up her ears, but didn't catch what he said: "Fellow Daoist Lu Xuan, what did you say?"

Lu Xuan said, "Nothing."

His gaze swept over the main star of the Snow Flower Ancient Sect and the nearby few stars.

Soon, he knew every secret realm and trial ground of the Snow Flower Ancient Sect like the back of his hand.

Within the Snow Flower Ancient Sect also runs a trunk of the World Tree, and deep beneath the main star's earth lies a cold pool of icy power.

The power of this cold pool contains a strand of primordial power.

There, several ancestors are in closed-door cultivation.

This place is perfect for Yang Ling'er to cultivate.

Yang Ling'er's cultivation is weak; she has wasted ten thousand years, and now she is only at the one-star Great Emperor level!

We can't continue on the ordinary path!

So the best method is to intensify Yang Ling'er's training, directly perceiving and attracting the primordial icy power, causing her cultivation to surge.

This is like letting a middle school student directly study advanced mathematics and quantum mechanics; first, Yang Ling'er has talent, second, the Snow Flower Ancient Sect has resources—both are indispensable.

Thus, we can directly overtake by taking a shortcut!

Even to some extent, Yang Ling'er's talent surpasses Yang Xuan's.

Not long after.

Lu Xuan withdrew his gaze and took another sip of the spiritual tea poured by Luo Xue.

Beside him, Bingquan Lao Zu exclaimed excitedly, "Luo Xue, this Yang Ling'er is simply the most talented person this ancestor has ever seen in endless ages."

Luo Xue was also utterly astonished.

For the present Yang Ling'er has actually produced a resonance with the Ice-Cold Great Dao of the main star.

She herself couldn't even do that!

A moment of silence fell.

Bingquan Lao Zu excitedly gazed at Lu Xuan and said, "Junior Lu Xuan, it seems we'll owe another favor. We, the Frost Flower Ancient Sect, will take this disciple Yang Ling'er!"

Lu Xuan said lightly, "I need you to cultivate him/her with all your effort."

Bingquan Lao Zu said, "That is only natural."

Lu Xuan pointed to the ground and said, "Beneath your main star lies a cold pool; it is the heaven-defying spiritual fluid evolved by the World Tree over endless ages. Use it to cultivate Yang Ling'er."

The sound came down!

Bingquan Lao Zu's face turned grim, even a trace of killing intent appeared. "Little Friend Lu Xuan, are you eyeing our sect's supreme treasure?"

That cold pond is the founding cornerstone of their Frost Flower Ancient Sect, and also one of their supreme secrets.

Only known to a few of their elders and sect members.

I never expected that Lu Xuan would see through this!

From this, it seems the visitor comes with ill intent!

Boom!

Bingquan Lao Zu's body surged with an icy cold force; instantly the ice hall filled with "Dao" and "Rhyme"; a heaven-reaching momentum pressed toward Lu Xuan and his companions, a sound like mountains roaring and seas booming exploded, and the whole ice hall turned into a killing ground.

Lu Xuan frowned slightly, flicked his sleeve, directly activating the Great Dao Hand, entwined with a strand of the World Tree's power.

Hiss!

A beam of divine radiance surged directly toward Bingquan Lao Zu.

This power seemed ethereal and ordinary, yet in an instant it dispelled the momentum within the ice hall.

Pfft!

Bingquan Lao Zu spat a mouthful of essence blood; the throne behind him exploded into dust, he was blown backward by this divine radiance several hundred zhang, crashing heavily onto a jade pillar, which shattered.

Boom!

Bingquan Lao Zu fell to the ground, staring at Lu Xuan with shock, his voice trembling, "How could this be... Lu Xuan, how could your strength be so...?"

Beside them, Sect Master Luo Xue also stared dumbfounded.

Originally thought Lu Xuan was merely below the Sovereign Realm, but now he can actually overwhelm Bingquan Lao Zu!

You must know this is their home turf; they can draw on the power of the cold pond and a strand of the World Tree's power!

Lu Xuan said lightly, "What I just told you wasn't a discussion, merely a notification."
