Is there a better thod than relying on puppets?
"Shenxiao Dao Sect!"
The Daoist Nun, upon hearing Li Yunjing’s words, exhibited a slight change in expression, and said indifferently, "Youngster, are you using the na of the ’Shenxiao Dao Sect’ to suppress ?"
Li Yunjing’s heart tightened, and he hurriedly shook his head, speaking with respect and urgency: "Senior, you misunderstand! I have no such intention! I only hope that, seeing as we are both of the Profound Sect lineage, you will spare us this once. I am willing to pay any price to atone for this offense!"
The Daoist Nun regarded Li Yunjing coldly, her gaze like a knife, as if wanting to peel him open and see through him.
Her voice remained icy, yet carried a faint trace of mockery: "Profound Sect lineage? Ha, re ’Shenxiao Dao Sect,’ do you think you are worthy of discussing lineage with ?"
"Isn’t that statent a bit excessive, Senior?"
Hearing this, Li Yunjing felt even more despair, but as a disciple of the "Shenxiao Dao Sect," his pride couldn’t be suppressed. He glared angrily at the Daoist Nun and sneered coldly: "Our ’Shenxiao Dao Sect’ is not inferior to your ’Guanghan Palace’ in the heavens, and there is more than one great ancestor above us! In terms of strength, our ’Shenxiao Dao Sect’ lineage is stronger than ’Guanghan Palace’!"
"Today, relying on your high cultivation, you oppress ! I admit it, do what you will with !"
"But if you think of insulting my ’Shenxiao Dao Sect’, that’s impossible!"
Upon hearing Li Yunjing’s words, Zhao Qi, standing to the side, turned pale as paper, her body trembling slightly.
She had never imagined that Li Yunjing, when the Sect was insulted, would beco so unyielding!
Seemingly not expecting such insolence from a re ant, the Daoist Nun’s gaze lingered on Li Yunjing.
Her voice remained cold, but carried an undeniable authority: "Ha! Since you ntion the ’Shenxiao Dao Sect,’ I could indeed give you a chance."
"Oh?"
Li Yunjing felt a glimr of hope at these words, promptly looked up at the Daoist Nun, and exclaid: "I’ll agree to any condition! But I, Li Yunjing, will never tolerate any insult to my ’Shenxiao Dao Sect’!"
"You have so courage for a youngster!"
The Daoist Nun said indifferently: "I require an item, called the ’Nine Revolutions Profound Ice Lotus’! This item grows in the ’Profound Ice Abyss’ in the Land of the Far North on ’Celestial Wave Star’, if you can acquire it, I shall let you both leave."
"The Nine Revolutions Profound Ice Lotus?"
"Celestial Wave Star?"
Li Yunjing’s brow furrowed, and he silently pondered.
He had once seen records of it in the Sect’s classics, saying it is the coldest item of heaven and earth, growing in the coldest places, blooming only once every three thousand years, extrely rare.
What’s more, the Profound Ice Abyss is a forbidden land in the Land of the Far North, reputedly guarded by countless fierce beasts, even a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator dares not enter easily.
As for "Celestial Wave Star"?
This was the first ti Li Yunjing learned the na of the world he resided in!
The "Celestial Wave Star" is too vast!
With Li Yunjing’s cultivation, he rely road around the Southern Heaven Continent, unable to venture beyond, much less to other places.
The Land of the Far North is but a legend, Li Yunjing simply lacks the capability to reach there.
"Senior! It’s not that the junior is unwilling or afraid! It is truly beyond my capability to traverse nurous continents, traveling north to the ’Land of the Far North’!"
Li Yunjing hesitated but nevertheless spoke honestly.
This was their only lifeline.
Li Yunjing added: "If the senior could extend the ti, once I break through to the Golden Core Realm, the junior would be willing to go to the ’Profound Ice Abyss’ to fetch the ’Nine Revolutions Profound Ice Lotus’ for the senior!"
"You are quite honest for a youngster!"
The Daoist Nun nodded slightly and said indifferently: "Very well! However, I won’t give you too much ti. One hundred years! If you fail to fetch the ’Nine Revolutions Profound Ice Lotus’, I can claim your life from afar!"
"One hundred years?"
Li Yunjing’s heart shivered, and he hurriedly nodded: "This junior will not fail the senior’s trust!"
He understood that just now, the Daoist Nun had already placed a restriction on him and Zhao Qi!
And this kind of restriction, neither Li Yunjing nor Zhao Qi could detect at all!
This level of ability left Li Yunjing with no choice but to comply!
A Divinity Transformation Realm expert!
Even if he returned to the "Shenxiao Dao Sect" seeking help from the Sect, there might not be anyone capable of lifting such a restriction, right?
Whether the "Shenxiao Dao Sect" had a Divinity Transformation Realm expert was a question that persisted in Li Yunjing’s mind.
Regarding the ti granted by this Daoist Nun to Li Yunjing,
If it were an ordinary Foundation Establishnt Realm Seventh Heaven cultivator, they might find it insufficient!
But for Li Yunjing, it was very ample.
Never mind Core Formation, even after breaking through a few realms post-Core Formation, Li Yunjing had great confidence!
Even if the ancestors of the "Shenxiao Dao Sect" could not assist him, Li Yunjing could still complete the task to rid himself of this restriction!
Additionally, Li Yunjing harbored a suspicion.
Perhaps after breaking through to the Golden Core Realm, Li Yunjing himself would be capable of dissolving this restriction?
After all, he wasn’t an ordinary person!
Li Yunjing had many valuable items on him.
Upon reaching the Golden Core Realm, he had full confidence to venture early to the Land of the Far North to test his luck!
"Alright! You may leave now."
The Daoist Nun paid no more attention to the pair, rely waving her hand as the doors of the Ice Palace slowly opened.
Li Yunjing took a deep look at the Daoist Nun, then turned and marched out of the Ice Palace with Zhao Qi.
"Clang..."
The doors of the Ice Palace closed again.
"The boy from ’Shenxiao Dao Sect’! Quite interesting!"
The Daoist Nun muttered to herself while gazing outside the door.
A subtle, enigmatic smile hovered at her lips.
At this mont, Li Yunjing and Zhao Qi, having exited the Ice Palace, fled the icefield at what was nearly their top speed.
