The Rise of the Shen Family

The few Liang family cultivators quickly entered an underground dark river following the overflowing cold air, and followed the dark river to a dark and humid cave.

Everything in the cave was covered with a thick layer of ice, and the biting cold air filled the entire cave, causing the temperature in the cave to drop a lot.

I saw that there was a spring above the karst cave, and there was a steady stream of white cold and cold air gushing out. This cold air seemed to be able to freeze everything in the cave.

When the members of the Liang family jumped out of the dark river full of floating ice, their wet clothes were instantly frozen into strips of ice, and even their hair and eyebrows were immediately covered with a layer of ice. Hoarfrost, like a snowman that has just been built.

"Ninth Uncle, there really are treasures here..."

A qi-training cultivator who was closest to the cold spring turned his attention to the cold spring not far away, his tone was full of joy, and he involuntarily took a step forward.

However, an unexpected scene soon appeared. The cold spring seemed to usher in an outbreak, and endless cold and bone-chilling cold air continued to spew out of the spring water.

When the white cold air drifted past the Qi cultivator, his whole body was frozen in an instant, and his face still kept the look of fear when danger came.

"Go back!"

Seeing this, the base-building cultivator couldn't help but screamed in panic, and then blocked all the spiritual power of his body from the cold air that was blowing toward him.

When this overwhelming terrifying cold air passed, a thicker layer of ice formed on the originally thick ice layer, and the dark river surface, which was originally full of floating ice, was completely frozen again.

At this time, even Shen Ruiling, who was hiding in the dark river, immediately felt a chill that pierced his bone marrow, and the fire attribute spiritual power in his body instantly resisted the chill.

Although the [Earth Yin and Cold Spring] is considered a water-type spiritual object, it possesses the unique icy and biting chill of an ice-type spiritual object.

This cold and bone-piercing spring water penetrated from the Nine Serenity Land. After it came out, it would not flow everywhere, but would turn into a cold air and hide in the spring water, and would burst out from time to time and then spread to the outside environment.

Although [Earth Yin and Cold Spring] itself is the most yin and cold thing, its own spring water will not freeze, because it can keep flowing forever.

However, around the spring water, an icy cold area will be formed due to the cold air emanating from it. The old cold air that spews out is enough to threaten all the monks below the Golden Core Realm.

When the Liang family dived into this cave, they happened to encounter an eruption of a cold spring, and the cold air that had been deposited for many years was released from the mouth of the spring.

I saw that the white cold air instantly froze the spiritual power released by the cultivator in the early stage of foundation establishment, and followed the spiritual power directly into the latter's body.

For a while, the cultivator in the early stage of foundation establishment immediately felt that the spiritual power in his body was stagnant, and the blood in his body seemed to be freezing at an extremely fast speed, and the ice slag appeared in his meridians, and was Relentlessly flocked to his dantian.

At this time, even if he wanted to escape, he would have no chance. The dark river was covered by the thick layer of ice, and his lower body had been frozen by the ice, so he lost the ability to move.

And the few qi cultivators around him had long since lost any vitality, turning into lifelike human-shaped ice sculptures.

Seeing that the vitality of the early foundation-building cultivator was rapidly fading, Shen Ruiling finally couldn't sit still. After all, he still wanted to find out some secrets about the Liang family from the former's mouth.

The next moment, a glamorous blue-red flame immediately appeared in his eyes, and the blue-red flame spewed out of his body and quickly enveloped it.

When those blue-red flames appeared, the cold and biting river water around Shen Ruiling boiled instantly, and even the several meters thick ice layer on the river above his head was melting at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Boom..."

With a loud bang, a huge hole suddenly appeared on the originally frozen river surface, and then a huge fireball flew out from under the ice layer at high speed.

After the huge blue-red fireball appeared, it immediately released a terrifying high temperature to the surroundings, and it collided violently with the cold and biting chill in the cave.

At this time, Shen Ruiling was the huge fireball. The blue-red flames wrapped his whole body. The whole person was like a red furnace, isolating the ubiquitous icy cold in the cave.

Soon he turned his attention to the foundation-building cultivator who had been frozen into an ice sculpture by the chill in the cave, and then directly waved a blue-red flame at him.

I saw a blue-red flame swept out from Shen Ruiling's body, turning into a rebellious fire dragon hovering over the base-building cultivator who was about to die.

As the blue-red flames hovered over the former, the blazing temperature radiated began to melt the ice on his body at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"tick...tick"

When the ice on his body gradually melted, the cultivator in the early stage of foundation building was touched by a burst of warmth, and the consciousness that had fallen into a deep sleep woke up again.

On this side, Shen Ruiling's gaze turned solemnly towards the cold spring above the cave, and found that the latter was still spewing out biting cold air.

According to ancient books, the eruption of the [Earth Yin and Cold Spring] can be long or short. The short one is a few breaths, while the long one may last for several hours or even several days.

And when the [Earth Yin and Cold Spring] cold air broke out, it was also the time when its power was at its greatest, and even Jindan Zhenren didn't dare to collect the cold spring spirit water in the spring's eyes easily at this time.

Just as Shen Ruiling was contemplating, the flames he released seemed to disrupt the balance in the cave, and the cold spring erupted again.

"Gudu...gudu..."

With the continuous churning of the faint purple spring water, endless white cold air spewed out of the water, causing the temperature in the cave to drop sharply again.

The next moment, a blue-red sun slowly rose above Shen Ruiling's head, and a crazy solar storm raged around the sun immediately, intertwined with the oncoming chill.

While resisting the cold attack, he also had to protect the foundation-building cultivator, lest he die accidentally.

In this way, the cold eruption lasted for about a stick of incense, and after half a stick of incense, the cold air gushing from the spring began to decrease.

When Shen Ruiling noticed that the chill was beginning to weaken, the corners of his mouth could not help but curl up, and he could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.

It seems that his luck is not bad. This time, the [Earth Yin and Cold Spring] outbreak did not last long, allowing him to rush back in time to join Shen Ruizhi and others.

And every time the [Earth Yin and Cold Spring] erupted, the chill contained in the spring water would weaken, and this was the best time for monks to collect the spring water.

When the [Earth Yin and Cold Spring] in front of him regained his usual stability, Shen Ruiling gradually put away the flames released, and only covered a layer of his body, like a flame armor, which could effectively resist the inside of the cave. The gloomy chill that has not yet dissipated.

He quickly flew to the side of the small cold spring, and turned his eyes to the quiet purple spring water that was constantly rolling in the spring.

From the faint purple spring water, Shen Ruiling could clearly feel the water attribute power and its unique cold power, so he couldn't help but murmur:

"Sure enough, it is the most yin and cold..."

As soon as he finished speaking, he directly took out a rusted copper pot from the storage bag and threw it over the spring.

Judging from the strong spiritual power fluctuations emanating from the rusted copper pot, it is a third-order high-grade spiritual weapon!

Shen Ruiling pinched a magic formula in front of his chest with both hands and hit it on the copper pot, which immediately burst out with a dazzling light.

The next moment, the lid of the copper pot was slowly lifted, and a huge suction force came out from the copper pot, which immediately introduced all the spring water in the spring into the pot.

The faint purple spring water flew out of the spring, and it turned into a waterline and slowly entered the copper pot. The whole movement was as smooth as running clouds and flowing water.

After half a cup of tea, the copper pot suspended in mid-air emptied the spring water in the spring, leaving a spring bottom covered with thousands of years of ice.

I saw that there was a small gap at the bottom of the spring, and the faint purple [Earth Yin and Cold Spring] slowly flowed out from this small gap of unknown depth.

Shen Ruiling's eyes slowly retracted from the gap, and once again turned to the third-tier high-grade copper pot with the [Earth Yin and Cold Spring] in the air.

At this time, the rusted copper pot was covered with a thick layer of ice, which froze the entire copper pot into a lump of ice, and it continued to exude a piercing chill.

Seeing this, Shen Ruiling's eyes couldn't help but flash a hint of surprise. Obviously, he didn't expect the [Earth Yin and Cold Spring] in the pot to have such a huge power.

With a wave of his hand, he put the copper pot suspended in mid-air into an empty storage bag, and then turned around and flew to the base-building cultivator who was frozen into an ice sculpture.

At this time, the lower body of the base-building cultivator, who was frozen into an ice sculpture, was still frozen there, and the ice on his chest and head had gradually melted.

"Looks like you're awake?"

Shen Ruiling's calm voice suddenly sounded slowly in the man's sea of ​​consciousness.

The vitality of the base-building cultivator is not as fragile as imagined. Even if the lower body has frozen to death, as long as the heart and soul are not destroyed, they can continue to breathe.

And if there is a great cultivator willing to take his body and be reborn at this time, he can also continue to live, just change a body.

When the spirit of the foundation-building cultivator who had just woken up heard Shen Ruiling's voice, fear instantly enveloped his whole body.

At this time, another extremely powerful divine consciousness actually appeared in his sea of ​​consciousness, and the coercive aura emanating from the other party's divine consciousness made him feel deep fear.

That seems to be Jindan real person? !

"I want you to know how bad your situation is now, answer my questions well, and if you behave well, I don't mind saving your life..."

Shen Ruiling communicated with the other party through his divine sense, and his voice was extremely indifferent.

It seems that it was because he had just experienced a death threat, so the man's desire for life was extremely strong now, and the desire to live in his soul was exactly what Shen Ruiling wanted to see the most.

"Are you from the Liang family in Liangtaishan?"

"yes..."

The man replied quickly.

Hearing this, Shen Ruiling asked again:

"How many Foundation Establishment cultivators are still in your Liang Family Mountain Gate?"

Hearing this question, the man suddenly hesitated and did not speak immediately. From his soul, Shen Ruiling could feel the entanglement and anxiety of the other party.

"Since you don't want to say it, this seat is not reluctant..."

As soon as Shen Ruiling's voice fell, his consciousness began to withdraw from the sea of ​​consciousness of men like a tide.

At the same time, the man's soul felt that the gloomy chill had invaded his body again, and it was coming towards his sea of ​​consciousness at this time.

If his soul is frozen by the cold, he will not be able to wake up completely.

There was deep fear in the man's soul, so he hurriedly said:

"I said! I said!... Now there are four foundation-building cultivators in the family..."

After hearing this, Shen Ruiling nodded slightly from the outside world, and then waved a fire attribute spiritual power to dispel the chill that was spreading in the man's body.

Although the [Earth Yin and Cold Spring] in the cave has been taken away by Shen Ruiling, the cold and biting chill in the cave has not completely dissipated.

At this time, the foundation-building man's entire body's meridians were frozen, and only his soul was preserved, and he could not stop the invasion of the outside cold at all.

He can still hang his life now, and it is entirely Shen Ruiling who is helping him to expel the chill!

"What is the cultivation base of these four foundation-building cultivators?"

"The third uncle is the foundation-building Great Perfection cultivation base, the seventh uncle is the middle-stage foundation-building, and the rest are the foundation-building early..."

After asking the left-behind monks of the Liang family, Shen Ruiling asked about the Liang family's family protection formation.

"What is the formation of your Liang family's family protection formation, and where is the formation base?"

"The family protection formation is called [Senluo Vientiane Array]. It is a third-order high-grade formation based on thousands of spiritual trees on the family mountain..."

After several beatings, the man's defense line completely collapsed, and he told Shen Ruiling all the family details he knew like a bean.

"Have your Liang family ancestors been high-level monks and left behind for your family?"

"My family's ancestor was a law enforcement elder of the Promise Sect. As for the family's successor, I really don't know. I only know that the patriarch has a third-order top-quality spiritual weapon..."

...

After more than half an hour of questioning and answering, Shen Ruiling asked everything that he could, and even the man himself was not very clear about some questions.

Looking at the shivering man's soul hiding in the corner of the sea of ​​consciousness, Shen Ruiling shook his head slightly and said:

"Forget it, this seat will send you the last ride!"

After all, his divine consciousness immediately left the other party's sea of ​​consciousness, and then his right hand was directly buckled on the other party's Tianling cover.

With a heart-piercing scream from the man's soul, Shen Ruiling's mind immediately flashed the memory of the man's life.

Although Shen Ruiling had already asked everything he could ask, he still chose Soul Search in the end. In fact, he just wanted to know more about the Liang family.

Moreover, it is impossible for this man to continue to live, unless there is a high-level cultivator willing to spend a lot of resources to regenerate it.

As the images in his mind kept flashing, a look of joy appeared on Shen Ruiling's face, as if he had discovered some more important information from the other party's memory.
