The reason why the Watchful Glacier was listed as one of the eight forbidden lands was because of the crack in space that could not be healed. The crack led to who knows where, and it was constantly surrounded by the aura of riots.

Whether it was medicinal herbs, ores, or demons and devils, it was said that the Ice Crystal Kylin Beast in the depths of the glacier was not produced by the Tian Yuan Continent, but came from the other side of the crevice.

"The other side of the crack is definitely a higher level world. The medicinal ingredients, ores and demon beasts coming out are all much stronger than our Tian Yuan Continent's."

"It's also a Cold Star Grass. The Cold Star Grass that our Tian Yuan Continent s produce can only be used to refine Ice Muscle Pills, and the Cold Star Grass that is here to watch over the glaciers is enough to refine the Ice Bone Pill in place of the higher grade of Moonlight Grass!"

It was not only the medicinal ingredients, but also the ores. Other parts of the Tian Yuan Continent also produced ice crystals, which were used as the core to greatly increase the ice type spiritual energy in the array formation. However, the two were a whole grade lower.

There was even less of a need to talk about demonic beasts. It was said that the Ice Crystal Qilin had already chased the peak Earthly Immortal Stage Snow Demon Queen to the inner perimeter of the glacier and occupied the most fertile territory there.

"That's amazing."

Qin Tian could not help but sigh.

"Not only that."

Long Ya was in high spirits as she continued to speak, "Actually, that violent Qi is immortal energy, which is to say, the energy contained within the immortal stone, but because it was torn apart by space and time and became extremely uncontrollable, the sect master had teamed up with nine great protector elders to set up an array, and a strand of it was lured into the ethereal nine peaks, resulting in nine of the Blessed Paradises. It's said that the cultivation speed inside was faster than the training grounds by a hundred times!"

While speaking, Long Ya pulled out a few herbs from the corner of the wall, shook off the ice dregs on the roots, and handed them over to Qin Tian.

"This is the Cold Star Grass."

Qin Tian immediately recognized the name of the medicinal herb.

"That's right."

Long Ya nodded her head, and said: "Although the Cold Star Grass is extremely precious outside, but we can see it everywhere in this glacier, and the effects of the Cold Star Grass growing in this land of ice and snow are even better. Furthermore, I'm afraid that there is a large patch of Cold Star Grass growing in the depths of Shandong Province, and our trip was not in vain."

As he said that, Long Ya raised her head to look. Under the shine of the congealing force, there were plenty of Frigid Star Grass scattered in the corners of the cave. The deeper they went, the denser the Frigid Star Grass became.

After walking for about one kilometer, they could faintly see a warm and cold light from the corner in front of them. The two of them glanced at each other and couldn't help but speed up their pace.

As he turned the corner, he was shocked to see a large expanse of ice in front of him. Under the gentle light, the color of the ice was even brighter than outside.

Moreover, amongst the many Frigid Star Grasses, there was a plant half the height of a man that was translucent and faintly snow-white. It was actually a lotus flower!

The two of them could feel the pure spiritual energy from the lotus ten meters away. It was even richer than the top quality spirit stone.

"It's a snow lotus!"

Even the experienced and knowledgeable Long Ya could not help but to shout out.

With the snow lotus as the main ingredient or the supporting material, the pellets that were refined would at least be of high-grade Profound Rank. If it was matched with a demon beast from the flesh sage realm, then it would probably be able to refine the legendary Ice Snow Fairy. Any cultivator who consumed this pellet would immediately be able to step into the realm of Martial Saint!

Even if the cultivation method he trained in was not ice attribute, as long as it was not the cold energy from the snow lotus, this snow lotus could be comparable to hundreds of high-grade spirit stones. The spirit energy contained within it could make meat saintly stage cultivator jump two or even three levels!

This already belonged to the category of heavenly and earthly treasures!

"This snow lotus has long since matured, yet it's hidden in the depths of this cave. I'm afraid that the spirit beasts will be attracted here soon. Let's quickly harvest it and split it up!"

As Long Ya said this, she tiptoed to catch the water, and was about to go pluck the Snow Glacier Lotus.

However, at this time, a cold light flashed, and a ball of blood red shadow was even faster than Long Ya.

Qin Tian was shocked, he turned his head and saw that it was Lv Guan who had ordered the blood droplets to snatch the snow lotus away.

"Thank you Senior Sister Long Ya, Junior Brother Qin Tian!"

Lv Guan laughed madly, and was about to stuff the snow lotus into his mouth.

This Lv Guan was not an idiot, he knew that if he turned around and escaped, he would definitely be caught up by Long Ya whose cultivation level was even deeper. If he could reach Liu Ye's location, then even an inner disciple like Liu Ye would inevitably covet the Snow Glacier Lotus.

Even if Liu Ye was selfless, he would at least split the ice lotus evenly between the three of them. Lv Guan didn't believe that Long Ya and Qin Tian would cut open his stomach to snatch the ice lotus.

Besides, although the medicinal effects of the snow lotus would not burst out instantly after consuming it, the effects of the snow lotus was enough for him to break through the seven cubes of flesh sage. It was useless no matter how sharp Long Ya's attacks were, no matter how many steps he took.

Without waiting for Long Ya to speak, Qin Tian raised his hand and threw out the Yellow Rank spirit blade Dagger. Although it was not accompanied by the congealing force, its sharpness still did not allow for any underestimation.

Lv Guan thought that it was terrible. He dodged and dodged, but Long Ya had already used the power of his movement to attack back, and the Zhanmadao chopped down with the power of one ding. It was the ten-step killing technique that gained strength and speed.

Lv Guan's blood droplets were only a secret weapon thrown from afar. Seeing Long Ya's aggressive approach, not caring about swallowing the Snow Glacier, Lv Guan immediately used his base sword to block, only to see the golden cries filled with spirit energy, and Lv Guan, who was caught off guard, kneeling down from the impact. The solid ice layer had a dent in his knee, causing ice chips to fly out.

Just as he blocked Long Ya's slash, Qin Tian rushed forward again. Although it was because of the Dragon Tiger Tactic's Dragon Fist Art, he could not underestimate it. There was also a cauldron of power between his punches and kicks.

Not to mention this heavenly resource, even if Lv Guan did what he did earlier, it would not be considered as an unknown to him if he killed him.

Although it was still easy for Lv Guan to defend against the Qi from her body, he quickly slashed twice more with his blade and shattered the Qi from her body.

Seeing that he was about to use his own body to resist the enemy, Lv Guan clenched his teeth and hardened his heart. He suddenly slapped his palm on the ice, and with the power of this, he flew up into the air, pulling off the majority of the snow lotus and stuffing it into his mouth.

This was indeed a wise move. Rather than throwing his life away in a place like this due to being surrounded by enemies, he might as well just leave it at that.

Qin Tian and Long Ya also didn't expect that Lv Guan would play such a trick, and when they came back to their senses, they could no longer see his figure. Helpless, they could only pick up the broken root and count the number of snow lotus petals.

"Damn it, this guy took more than half of them!"

Long Ya felt pity and waved her Zhanmadao.

From the stem to the flowerpot, to the petals, they were neatly cut in half from the middle. Each petal had three petals. Although there was no longer any life in them, the spirit energy contained within them was still plentiful.

"I'm afraid that if he swallowed more than half a Snow Lotus, he would break through the flesh sage of the seven nations within one or two days, and within half a month, he will definitely step into the realm of creations in all four directions!"

Qin Tian was also extremely vexed.

"I must make him pay double."

Long Ya also said bitterly. She took out two pads of silk and said: "The medicinal properties of this Snow Lotus will quickly disappear. Although it will not cause any major problems by storing it in the storage bag, it's still better to keep it properly."

The two of them wrapped the snow lotus and harvested the piece of Cold Star Grass. After they cleaned up the area, they discovered something unexpected!

While these beast cores were emitting spirit energy to nourish the Frigid Star Grass, they were also absorbing quite a bit of spirit energy from the medicinal effects of the Frigid Star Grass. The Ice Origin Leopard Demon Pellet, which originally only contained Meat Sage Quadruple God of Brave Realm, already contained spirit energy that was several times denser than that of the Snow Wolf King's Demon Pellet.

It was probably a few Ice Origin Panthers who had smelled the Snow Lotus's fragrance but were killed by the spirit beasts guarding the place. The spirit beasts, however, had somehow left the place without waiting for the Snow Lotus to bloom, giving Qin Tian and Long Ya the benefit of the remaining spirit beast cores.

In addition, he also found a few pieces of Ice Meteor in the corner. These were condensed from the frost power of the meteors that had fallen into the mortal world. They were quite good materials for forging, and they were all divided between the two of them.

When he returned to the encampment, he could see Lv Guan meditating and cultivating from afar. The smart him was sitting very close to Liu Ye on purpose, afraid that Qin Tian and Long Ya would come to him to denounce him for his crimes.

Although Liu Ye's eyes were also closed, he was still deep in thought, but there was a trace of a smile on his lips, evidently, he had sensed that the spirit energy in his body had become a lot more abundant after Lv Guan had left and returned. He was sure that he had stumbled upon a fortuitous encounter, so with his experience, he could naturally guess what happened.

Everyone else either cultivated or rested, Qin Tian and Long Ya found a distant place to sit!

The moment they quieted down, the two discovered that something was amiss.

This was a huge mission involving the Glacier Glacier, but there were only two Earthly Immortal Stage Level 3 Elders accompanying them. Could it be that Celestial Sect of Clouds viewed these inner and outer sect disciples as nothing more than trash?

Liu Ye, an inner disciple at the peak of the Earthly Immortal Stage, appeared out of nowhere and claimed that he had forcefully joined the mission to find high-grade ice crystals.

The snow lotus in the depths of the cave was enough to be ranked among the treasures of the world. There were all sorts of indications that there were once powerful demon beasts guarding this place, waiting for the snow lotus to mature.

A huge face appeared at the cave's entrance. Soon after, a big hand reached in, and many disciples were sent flying far before they could even react to the sound of the hand hitting them.

And when the hand was three meters deep, it suddenly flicked, and actually flipped open the top of the cave. In the midst of the mountain crumbling and the earth splitting, Qin Tian could clearly see the entire appearance of the demon beast.

"Snow ape!"

This time, even Liu Ye was frowning.

The demonic beast that was guarding the snow lotus had returned!
