Chapter Seventy-two Ice Dance

  Ziyan has gone into seclusion.

  She took the scroll and various items into a cave, which had a mechanism that made it invisible from the outside. As for the poisonous Danfangs created by the evil master Batulu, Xiao Yu also left them to Ziyan. After all, those things were useless to him. As a Dan medicine master, even poison was very helpful to her, and it greatly benefited her in improving her alchemy skills.

  Idle Xiao Ao Yu began his cultivation.

  Day and night diligent cultivation, looking forward to breaking into the middle rank of the spiritual level as soon as possible.

  Xiao Bai also started to get busy.

  After Xie Ao Yu and Zi Yan successively went into seclusion to cultivate, Xiao Bai arrived at the highest point of Jie Tian Mountain. He looked down at the endless mountains and forests below, and sighed: "Ten thousand years ago we parted ways, I didn't think that I would come here again, yet it's over ten thousand years later. Old friends from back then, are you all doing well?"

  It suddenly transformed into a white light and shot into the deepest part of the mountain range that was cut off horizontally.

  Time just passed like this.

  Four days later, Xie Ao Yu was released from prison.

  He easily broke through to the middle stage of the Spiritual Realm, which was a natural process for him. He didn't pay much attention to it either, as his goal was to reach the Heavenly King level and he hadn't expected any difficulties in the early stages.

  "It's only been four days, and my sister is going to be in seclusion for over 50 days. I'll just go out and gain some experience." Xie Ao Yu turned his head to take a glance at the place where Zi Yan was in seclusion, slightly adjusted himself, then descended from the mountain that touched the sky.

  Xiaobai also restored its cute appearance and stayed by Xie Ao Yu's side.

  As soon as this man and beast came down from the top of the mountain, they began to search for a fierce battle with the demon beast nearby. Xie Ao Yu understood that the best way to quickly upgrade was to constantly fight.

  His target was those magical beasts.

  Jie Tian Shan is not deep in the Hengduan Mountains, this place can only be considered as the middle of the Hengduan Mountains. Teng-level magical beasts are common here, and occasionally there will be Yun-level magical beasts.

  But most of them were spirit-level magical beasts.

  It is most suitable for Xie Ao Yu, a high-ranking expert who has reached the middle level of the Spiritual Realm.

  For over ten days, Xie Ao Yu felt that his progress was still quite good.

  "Xiao Bai, next time you encounter a Cloud-level demon beast, please notify me in advance. You should know that I'm only at the Ling level boundary and have no way of entangling with a Cloud-level demon beast. If a Cloud-level demon beast gets within 10 meters of me, I'll probably be done for." Xie Ao Yu had just narrowly escaped an attack from a Cloud-level demon beast and was still feeling a bit shaken.

  "Ah-huh." Little White acknowledged.

  Xie Ao Yu smiled and said, "To think about it, fighting against Yun level demons, although it was just a distant exchange of blows, the feeling is indeed thrilling. Unfortunately, the gap is too big, and we can't engage in a prolonged battle."

  He had encountered several top-level demon beasts before, and had fought with lower-level demon beasts. Although he couldn't gain the upper hand, he managed to inflict heavy injuries on the lower-level demon beasts using his earth escape technique combined with some powerful killing moves, before escaping just as they were about to go berserk.

  As for those above mid-tier, Xie Ao Yu was much more cautious and didn't get close at all.

  He doesn't want to send himself to death.

  As for the spiritual realm of magic beasts, even if it's a high-ranking spiritual magic beast, Xie Ao Yu has full confidence in defeating it and making it his own dish.

  "Eh ya, eh ya......" Xiaobai rubbed his belly and started yelling.

  Xie Ao Yu rolled his eyes, "Little White, you can really eat!" He had discovered that Little White's head was small, but its appetite was astonishingly large, even surpassing some large magical beasts. He even suspected that Little White had been cursed by someone to become smaller. "Let's go, this time we'll find a magic bear, it will definitely be enough for you to eat."

  Xiao Bai jumped up excitedly.

  As a demon beast, the feeling of demon beasts was still very strong. As they walked, Xiaobai stopped and sniffed several times before running southwest.

  Xie Ao Yu followed behind, carrying the Lei Ling Sacred Knife.

  In this perilous place where danger lurked everywhere, he always gripped the Thunder Spirit Knife in his hand, ready for any unexpected event.

  "Roar!"

  A beast's roar came from ahead.

  Then came the angry roar of humans and the sound of battle.

  Xie Ao Yu rushed over and stood on a tree, looking forward to see that a land-violent bear in the Evolution Spirit Realm was being surrounded by a group of people.

  The Great Land Bear's strength was not weak, it was a lower-ranking Spiritual Realm, but the people attacking it also had high-ranking experts in the lower Spiritual Realm, and there were as many as thirteen or fourteen of them, joining forces to attack, and they had already beaten the Great Land Bear to the point where it could no longer resist.

  " Ice Dance?!" Xie Ao Yu caught sight of a nimble figure among the over ten people, holding a short sword and charging forward from time to time.

  That's exactly several months of ice dance.

  Along with a fatal sword from a top-notch master, the Great Earth Bear ended its life. A group of people excitedly cheered, and the man stepped on the corpse of the Great Earth Bear with a proud look, as if he was very impressive.

  Xie Ao Yu directly ignored everyone else, his eyes tightly fixed on Bing Wu, the beautiful girl who had always helped him when he couldn't cultivate Dou Qi.

  His memory returned to Langyaburg again.

  After being apart for several months, I saw Ice Dance again and felt somewhat excited.

  "Skating!" Xie Ao Yu calmed down and then said loudly.

  That Ice Dance, who was discussing with others how to deal with the Great Land Violent Bear, heard the sound, her slender body trembled, turned around and looked, and a hint of water vapor appeared in her eyes, "Ao Yu!"

  Two people looked at each other in silence for a moment.

  After a while, Xie Ao Yu walked over and gently brushed Ice Dance's disheveled hair behind her ear, softly asking: "Missed me?"

  "Mm." The ice dancer's face turned slightly red, but she still bit her lip and nodded lightly.

  Xie Ao Yu said: "Me too."

  Few words, but full of deep thoughts and feelings.

  The two people's hearts drew closer again.

  Being with Ziyan was different, at that time Xie Ao Yu always felt a bit of a gap, or rather, inferiority. Xie Ao Yu was just a young man who had just risen to prominence, but what about Ziyan? She was already a world-renowned beauty, the most promising candidate to become a top-tier super existence, and also a master alchemist.

  Ice dance is different.

  The two were childhood sweethearts, innocent and carefree, with no obstacles between them. More importantly, Xing Wu had once protected him through ice dance, but now Xie Ao Yu could turn around and protect Xing Wu like a man.

  After all, it's still male chauvinism at play.

  "Cough!"

  In this intense emotional exchange, someone suddenly cleared their throat loudly on purpose.

  Xie Ao Yu frowned, who is so blind.

  "Ah, Ao Yu, let me introduce you." Bing Wu's pretty face turned slightly red, but she had never been one to care about others' opinions, and reached out to grab Xiao Ao Yu's right hand. "Everyone, this is my..."

  "Future husband... Xie Ao Yu!" Xie Ao Yu continued.

  "What?"

  "What's with this 'future man'?"

  "It's true, when did Ice Dance have men? What is this kid doing?"

  Those ice dancing classmates suddenly exploded.

  Among them, many secretly admired Ice Dance, especially the low-ranking Spirit-level expert who had killed the Great Earth Bear. His face twisted instantly, his eyes fixed on Ice Dance, but to his surprise, Ice Dance didn't retort, and a surge of anger burst forth from his heart.

  Bingwu didn't expect Xie Ao Yu to say something like this either.

  Between them, although they both had each other in their hearts, they never broke through that thin layer of reserve. This time they did, and apart from feeling a little shy and tense, they were mostly joyful.

  "My fellow ice dancer, Li Chaofeng." The first of the Ling-level lower-ranked experts stepped forward and introduced himself.

  Xie Ao Yu smiled and said: "Just now when you killed the Great Earth Violent Bear with that one sword, I saw it. Not bad. The future development should be pretty good."

  What Xie Ao Yu said was simple, but when it fell into Li Chao Feng's ears, it didn't sound right.

  This isn't how seniors educate their juniors, what is he, Li Chaofeng thought resentfully.

  "So it seems that you are quite capable, why don't we have a competition and see who's better?" Li Chaofeng issued the challenge. His pursuit of ice dancing was well-known to all, so when he proposed the challenge, everyone else thought it was very normal.

  Lower than a ghost, really has no energy.

  Xie Ao Yu and Teng Jiu were evenly matched, so he naturally didn't have any interest in this level. He shrugged his shoulders and smiled: "Not interested."
