"What are you thinking about all day? Focus on your cultivation. The start of the Green Ranking Competition is not far off,"
Yan Ruxue said indifferently.
"With you and Second Senior Sister, the Green Ranking Competition should be enough. You don’t need . But Sister Ruxue, Second Senior Sister has always wanted to replace you, to prove herself stronger than you. Now she is only one realm below you. You must work hard, you absolutely must not let her surpass you,"
Tang Bao’er said while looking at Yan Ruxue.
"We are all fellow sisters of the sa sect. There’s nothing to compare. Just stop thinking about such things,"
Yan Ruxue shook her head.
"But if she becos stronger than you, she might beco the next successor as the Palace Master of the Snow Palace. Do you really want to let Second Senior Sister beco the Palace Master?" Tang Bao’er couldn’t help saying.
"We are all fellow sisters from the sa sect, she is also a disciple of our master, and her talent is equally outstanding. If she wants to take on the position of the Palace Master of the Snow Palace, then why not? Besides, I am not particularly interested in the position of Palace Master. If Second Junior Sister wants it, she might as well go for it,"
Yan Ruxue said very open-mindedly.
In the blink of an eye, night fell, and a Snow Palace disciple brought food to Ye Luo. After eating, Ye Luo waited for the right mont to seize the Snow Essence Ice.
Several hours passed, and Ao Long finally spoke up, saying it was ti to act. Ye Luo quickly used the Eight Feet Mirror to turn invisible, then left the room and headed towards the cave tunnel that Ao Long had ntioned.
After spending about fifteen minutes, Ye Luo found the location of the cave, in a very secluded area of the Snow Palace where there were no people.
Just as Ye Luo was about to enter, he suddenly noticed soone coming. His gaze swept over and saw a figure in green quickly approaching.
It was the cold and ruthless Second Senior Sister from the Snow Palace he had seen during the day. Ye Luo also learned her na from a Snow Palace disciple—it was Ruan Yu.
"What is she doing here? Could she be here for the Snow Essence Ice too?"
Seeing the green-clad woman, Ruan Yu, appearing here, Ye Luo’s eyes flickered.
Because Ye Luo was invisible at the mont, Ruan Yu did not see him and directly entered the cave tunnel.
"What are you dawdling for? Go in! Do you want soone else to take the Snow Essence Ice?"
Ao Long said indignantly.
Ye Luo swiftly followed and entered the cave tunnel as well.
The tunnel was narrow, only wide enough for one person. Ye Luo walked for dozens of minutes, covering a few hundred ters, before the tunnel began to slope downwards.
And a faint bone-chilling coldness approached, making Ye Luo shudder. He quickly circulated the Nine Yang Mystic Art, allowing the Nine Yang Energy to spread throughout his body, which helped him withstand the chill.
After walking about a thousand more ters, according to his estimate, Ye Luo by this ti had entered deep into the belly of the Snow Mountain. Then a huge ice cavern appeared before his eyes.
This cavern was completely covered in ice, resembling a cavern of ice and snow. In the center of this cavern was an ice trough, within which was an ice block the size of an infant’s palm, emitting a blue glow and radiating an extre chill.
The temperature here had definitely dropped to below minus seventy or eighty degrees. A normal person entering this place would instantly turn into an iceman.
Even Ye Luo, whose body was filled with Nine Yang Energy, felt a bit of coldness, and that ice-like object was likely the Snow Essence Ice. The extre chill it released seed to be emanating from this Snow Essence Ice.
In this cave, there was another figure, precisely the woman in green, Ruan Yu. At this mont, she was sitting cross-legged a ter away from the Snow Essence Ice, her eyes tightly shut, hands forming seals.
Streams of pure cold air were released from the Snow Essence Ice and entered her body, enhancing her strength.
Her face showed a hint of pain, yet she continued to absorb the cold air from the Snow Essence Ice.
"This girl seems to have known about the existence of the Snow Essence Ice for a while now," Ao Long spoke, "but she couldn’t refine it, so she used the Snow Essence Ice to accelerate her cultivation. She must be practicing a cultivation technique related to the ice attribute, which allows her to absorb the cold air from the Snow Essence Ice and rapidly increase her strength."
"So, what do we do now? There’s an expert at the eighth level of the Hua Yuan Realm here. How can I get the Snow Essence Ice? Now that she needs it for her cultivation, letting her know that I want to take the Snow Essence Ice might provoke her to kill with a single strike, given her character during the day."
Ye Luo said with so worry.
"Are you, a grown man, afraid of a woman? How embarrassing is that?"
Ao Long said disparagingly.
"Co on, Senior Ao Long, although she’s a woman, she’s an expert at the eighth level of the Hua Yuan Realm. And I’m only at the third level of the Saint Realm. How can I compare?"
Ye Luo’s face displayed utter helplessness.
"She’s currently in the middle of her cultivation. You just need to use your soul to launch a direct attack on her soul. She will definitely suffer a soul injury, leading to cultivation deviation, and then she won’t stand a chance against you."
"Isn’t that a bit too harsh? Although this woman has a bad temper, I have no grudges against her, and she is the second disciple of the Snow Palace’s master. It doesn’t seem right for to do this."
Ye Luo hesitated as he spoke.
"Why are you so indecisive? To beco strong, you must be ruthless. As long as she’s not your family or soone you care about, why bother so much?" Ao Long lectured.
"No, I can’t do that. Let’s think of another way."
Ye Luo shook his head. He could be ruthless towards enemies, but it was difficult for him to harden his heart against this woman; he wasn’t a bloodthirsty person.
Ye Luo began to search his mind for a solution when suddenly, an idea struck him.
"I can use the Silver Needle to block her acupoints, temporarily preventing her from moving. She’s currently cultivating, and I am invisible. Sealing her acupoints shouldn’t be a problem."
Thinking of using the Silver Needle to seal acupoints, Ye Luo’s hand produced several silver needles as he slowly approached Ruan Yu.
At this mont, Ruan Yu was in a state of cultivation. The Eight Feet Mirror had hidden Ye Luo’s presence and figure entirely, and she was completely unaware.
Whizz, whizz, whizz!
Ye Luo swiftly flicked several silver needles, directly piercing them into a few vital acupoints on Ruan Yu’s body.
Pffft!
Due to Ye Luo’s silver needles piercing in, the flow of True Yuan within Ruan Yu’s body was obstructed, causing her to spit out a mouthful of blood. Her face turned deathly pale, and suddenly, feeling unable to move, her complexion changed drastically, looking extrely unpleasant.
