The Northern Sea Ice Palace’s Martial God Son-in-Law Chapter 61 : Chapter 61

Chapter 61 : Spiritual dicine

"I found it."

Whoosh!

The hot spring water that began to spout soon ford a hot spring.

Digging the tunnel diligently had hit the mark.

I poured Extre Yang Qi into the ground to grasp the structure beneath the surface.

Furthermore, the underground hot spring water would also possess Yang energy.

As long as the two energies resonated, finding the hot spring water was an easy task for .

"I didn't think you would really find it."

"As expected of the Young Master!"

"Ah, hot."

"Warrior Tae, be careful!"

"To think such a hot spring existed in the North Sea......."

The Small Snow Squad mbers began to explore the hot spring in their own ways.

On the other hand, I,

'First, it seems this is where the vein of the hot spring was. Where should I go now.'

-Ahem, just because the hot spring water ca out doesn't an the secret cave is near it.......

I was pestering the Sword Venerable.

Clearly, I went around looking for the hot spring because the Sword Venerable said the Sword Venerable Secret Cave was next to the hot spring.

-Master, you didn't even leave a mark?

The Demon Queen scolded the Sword Venerable, who was tilting his head because a whopping three hundred years had passed.

'It is a secret cave, a secret cave. I hid it with the intention of hiding it determinedly, so how could it be found? Furthermore, if hundreds of years have flowed.......'

It was natural that it would be even harder to find.

The Sword Venerable sighed and approached the hot spring.

It was because he thought he had planted vain expectations.

The mont he confird the Sword Venerable's face reflected in the hot spring water,

-Ah!

-What is it?

'Did you figure sothing out?'

-I rembered. I rembered!

A smile ford on the Sword Venerable's lips.

-It is inside this!

'Yes?'

-I just rembered that to make it so no one could find the secret cave, I made the secret cave inside the hot spring!

-Really, are you sure you just rembered? It wasn't that you didn't want to tell him?

As the Demon Queen took a stance to nag again,

-I really just rembered! I made the secret cave inside the hot spring on purpose, thinking who else but us possessing the Extre Yin Body could enter deep into the hot spring.

I stared at the hot spring after hearing the Sword Venerable's words.

'So... you are saying I have to dive into that hot spring right now, right?'

-That is correct.

I let out a sigh.

"It is practically the sa as digging up a gold mine, so why is your expression like that?"

Cheon Deung-jin noticed that my expression was getting progressively worse.

"Ah, I think I have roughly figured out where the dicinal ingredients to treat the Young Palace Head are."

"Really? Then search for them right now......."

"Well, it is not certain yet, so give a mont."

I left Cheon Deung-jin behind and looked back at the Divine Physician.

It was because I saw the Divine Physician's expression changing constantly since earlier.

-It seems you gave him so kind of enlightennt.

'Yes?'

-Let us leave him alone for now.

I, who was about to approach the Divine Physician, stopped my steps at the story that he seed to have gained enlightennt.

In a situation where I couldn't do this or that,

'It looks warm.'

Seol Ye-rin must be feeling the cold.

"What should we do now, Captain?"

If the Sword Venerable's words were correct, I had to jump into the hot spring right now.

'Are you really sure?'

-I said so?!

At the Sword Venerable's story, I made a decision.

"Let's bring her."

I turned my steps back toward the Ice Palace.

***

'Where, is this?'

The world is completely dark.

It is strange.

This feeling was a first.

Shiver-

'Cold?'

Her body trembles.

For the first ti in her life, she felt the cold.

Even while unable to believe the fact that she felt cold.

'Cold.......'

Seol Ye-rin began to realize that the cold was sothing biting.

'I want to beco warm.'

It was sudden, but she missed Hyeokryeon Yeom's warmth.

'I miss it?'

It feels like she is alone again.

When she was trapped in the ice wall and experienced the hell where everyone she touched turned into an ice statue.

Seol Ye-rin trapped herself.

The one who 'saved' Seol Ye-rin was a man from the Demonic Cult.

'Why again.......'

‘Did I end up like this?’

‘Clearly, we were supposed to hold the engagent ceremony with that man now.’

Once the engagent ceremony was held, she wanted to talk about going on a trip to Dongting Lake.

The ring was given as a gift.

She wanted to say that it was so pretty, that it was beautiful.

'Am I dying like this?'

In the pitch-black darkness.

‘Have I been left alone again?’

'I don't want to.'

Save .

‘I wish soone would save .’

And if possible.

‘I wish that person was Hyeokryeon Yeom.’

Seol Ye-rin thought within the darkness.

Splash-

'Splash?'

Splash-

'Uh?'

It is warm.

'Why is it warm?'

Her eyes opened on their own.

Flash-!

A brightness dazzling enough to blind pushed away the darkness.

"Uh?"

When she regained her senses,

"Are you feeling a bit better?"

Hyeokryeon Yeom was in front of her eyes.

And,

"It's warm. Where... is this?"

Steam is rising up.

"It's a hot spring."

"Yes?"

A hot spring in the freezing North Sea?

"A gift prepared for Lady Seol."

"What does that......."

"I'm glad you seem to like it."

At Hyeokryeon Yeom's words, Seol Ye-rin looked around.

She sees the snow piled up pure white.

There really was a hot spring in the middle of the North Sea.

"To think it's a hot spring."

"Your body hasn't fully recovered yet, so lt your weary body for a bit."

Hyeokryeon Yeom took a deep breath with those words.

"What are you trying to do......."

"There is sothing I need to find, so I will go down below this for a bit."

Below?

It ans inside the hot spring.

At those words, Seol Ye-rin looked inside the hot spring water.

Because her clothes were completely wet from the water, the curves of her body were being revealed.

Flash-

Her face turned red like a carrot in an instant.

If he enters the water in this situation, won't he see everything?

"No!"

It was already late.

Splash-

Hyeokryeon Yeom entered the water.

Deep and deeply enough for the hot spring water to splash up.

'Ah?'

Watching Hyeokryeon Yeom going down even further than she thought, Seol Ye-rin dipped her body into the hot spring water up to her upper body.

It was because she didn't like that her lower body was warm and her upper body was cold.

'So feeling hot and cold was sothing like this.'

Observing her body after entering the hot spring, she understood.

A foreign energy was being felt inside her body.

It was poison.

'I was poisoned.'

Due to that shock, the Extre Yin Qi was not moving properly.

And she had even lost consciousness.

If the Extre Yang Qi that had coiled inside her body hadn't burned the poison, it would have been truly dangerous.

'I need to build up resistance to poison.'

If things went wrong, she almost beca a virgin ghost who couldn't even get married.

Thinking such thoughts, Seol Ye-rin continued to watch inside the water.

It was because she had to cover her body in ti for when Hyeokryeon Yeom ca out of the hot spring.

'.......'

Hyeokryeon Yeom did not co out of the hot spring for half an hour after that.

'Just what are you doing under the hot spring?'

Seol Ye-rin began to wait for Hyeokryeon Yeom.

***

'Are you sure it is inside this?'

-I said it is!

-Let's look for it together!

I, having returned to the Ice Palace to recover Seol Ye-rin and carried her on my back to return to the hot spring again, descended to the bottom of the hot spring and examined the surroundings.

It was because I could only find the Black Yin Ten Thousand Year Herb and Clear Dark Marrow if I found the secret cave the Sword Venerable left behind.

The Sword Venerable and the Demon Queen also began to stir around inside the hot spring.

Conversely, I closed my eyes.

Occupying space to find sothing was my specialty gained from my past lives.

Whoosh-

The space inside the hot spring unfolds inside my head.

Threads of Extre Yang made sense rushed out from my whole body.

Just like when I sensed the underground water.

'The Black Yin Ten Thousand Year Herb and Clear Dark Marrow are elixirs that are a whopping three hundred years old.'

If it was such an elixir, it was clear it would possess a mysterious energy.

Then I just have to find it.

The 'space' where the mysterious energy is positioned.

What I had felt while going through three lives was always craving.

Just like how I craved outstanding results to beco a top-class baseball player during my days as a baseball player.

Just like how I read the martial arts of the Demonic Cult's Elders like a madman to survive in Murim after reincarnating in Murim.

Just like how I desperately wished to use magic as a servant of the Magic Tower Master who couldn't use magic.

'I crave.'

That energy is different from general energy, which only an elixir would possess!

Flash-!

I opened my eyes.

Swoosh―!

The Extre Yang Qi beca a single point and shot out sowhere.

Past the Sword Venerable and the Demon Queen, to the place the Extre Yang Qi touched.

Sword Venerable Secret Cave.

Red writing blood up.

To think he didn't tell while leaving a mark this openly.

-See that! Did I not say it was there!

-Sigh, it's not like you found it, Master!

I walked in front of the Sword Venerable Secret Cave.

'How do I open it?'

-It is easy. Inject your true qi.

'It didn't matter if it wasn't the Sword Venerable Elder's true qi?'

-In the hope that a descendant of later generations would take it when I die, I made it so it could be opened just by finding it.

It must be an act he committed knowing that finding it was harder than dying.

I placed my hand on the writing.

Then, whoosh, the Extre Yang Qi was sucked in.

Rumble-

Along with a vibration, the Sword Venerable Secret Cave began to open.

'Huh?'

The amazing thing is that the hot spring water does not enter the secret cave.

-Kuhahaha! It seems my Extre Yin Qi still remains even though three hundred years have passed!

It ans he coated the secret cave with Extre Yin Qi enough to block the hot spring water.

-Master, you were sincere about creating a slush fund.

-Ahem.

Watching the Sword Venerable and Demon Queen chatting, I entered the secret cave.

Perhaps because I was the one who injected the true qi, entering the secret cave wasn't difficult.

"Hu-ah!"

As I entered the secret cave, I was able to breathe again.

"To think the air still remains. It is truly amazing."

At the fact that I entered a secret cave that was three hundred years old, I began to examine the secret cave.

Twinkle- Twinkle-

Gold, silver, and treasures were scattered here and there.

"You didn't prepare a secret manual separately?"

-Is the place where I sleep not located elsewhere? This was simply my hideout.

Is that why? There were mostly items that would be worth money.

Also, perhaps intending to prepare mainly things to eat, several jars were visible.

In modern terms, it is a kind of hideout.

A smirk ford as I thought of the Sword Venerable, who would have created the secret cave by entering the hot spring water and rolled around alone here.

'Where are the herbs?'

-Over there.

I approached the jar the Sword Venerable pointed at.

When I opened the lid of the closed jar,

Whoosh-

Miraculousness began to waft out.

When I checked inside the jar.

I saw frost flowers blooming on small indigo leaves about a span in length.

And,

At the end of the stem, a dark blue fruit was shining brilliantly.
