Ye Xiao opened his eyes and realized that it was not the endless white that he had imagined, but instead the surroundings which was colorful and bright. It was just like a mysterious underground karst cave!

Ye Xiao stood up and then slowly moved this new body of his. He actually did not feel any discomfort. If there was one thing that he felt uncomfortable about, it was that in this body of flesh and blood, Ye Xiao could feel that there was an endless amount of power contained within! Ye Xiao suddenly waved his fist, and struck a nearby ice bamboo shoot that had a circumference of a foot!

Boom!" The huge sound instantly came from far away. Ye Xiao was stunned as he looked at the ice bamboo shoot that broke from its roots. He muttered in disbelief, "This, this was done by me?" The sword spirit within Ye Xiao's body opened its eyes wide! Ye Xiao's physique had been tempered by the sword spirits before, so they were a bit stronger than ordinary cultivators. However, they were still far from reaching this level!

Although these ice cones weren't big, they were still around a foot wide, similar to the size of the ice pillar Ye Xiao fell on. However, because of the cold air, the icicle was much stronger than the icicle. At that time, Yuan Lei had only broken the ice pillar with almost all his strength. Although the distance was a bit far at that time, but when compared to Yuan Lei's strike, the power of his punch was similar to Yuan Lei's slash.

If he did not use his Essence, could his physical strength compare to a at the ninth level of the King Yuan's attack? Ye Xiao looked at his fist, then at the shattered ice awls, and gasped! If it was just in terms of physical strength, no one under Yuan Huang could be a match for him! Furthermore, his violent punch just now had left no damage on his fist. It was obvious that apart from his great increase in strength, his defensive capabilities had also increased by quite a bit. Although he had not tried it yet, Ye Xiao guessed that even if he did not have any protection, he could still take one attack from a normal King Yuan without suffering any injuries!

Ye Xiao looked at the colorful bottom of the ice cave, and naturally did not dare to carelessly charge in. The Power of consciousness violently surged out, and instantly, everything within several kilometers around appeared in Ye Xiao's mind!

Ye Xiao was startled, then he heard the Sword Spirit's voice. "Your soul has now reached the second level of the Carefree True Scripture. Ye Xiao was overjoyed. He had experienced the magic of the Power of consciousness many times during battle.

With the change in his body and the increase in the power of his mind consciousness, if he were to fight with the ordinary Ye Xiao who was at the ninth level of King Yuan, he would definitely have a lot more cards up his sleeves. Even if he was to fight with a King Yuan at Yuan Lei's level, although he might not necessarily win, he would at least not be as powerless as before!

Then, Ye Xiao calmed himself down and headed deeper into the ice cave! The depth of the ice cave was at least a hundred miles, so climbing alone was extremely difficult, but Ye Xiao had not yet become a King Yuan, so he was not able to fly, so Ye Xiao had to look for other paths! Furthermore, his original purpose for coming here was — — Radix Ginseng Sanguisorba. Previously, on the platform, Ye Xiao had not found any Radix Ginseng Sanguisorba, and the place where Radix Ginseng Sanguisorba were most likely to exist was the ice cave that no one had ever entered before.

Although this ice cave was very big, the underground space wasn't as big as they had imagined. Especially the chaotic drooping ice bamboo shoots and bulging stalactites, it took up almost all the underground space. If he wanted to walk inside, he could only pass through the gaps between the stalactites! Ye Xiao surveyed his surroundings, and then casually chose a direction to go in, and burrowed into one of the gaps.

Although the crevice was not large, it was still a good thing that he was able to easily pass through it by himself. When Ye Xiao walked in, he discovered that the crevice was very winding. However, there were various types of ice bamboo shoots, ice pillars, ice flowers and other exquisite and translucent, different colors, a myriad of styles. It was like a natural world of ice sculptures.

After walking for a long time, he did not find anything out of the ordinary.

Ye Xiao turned around, wanting to return back the way he came from. In that instant, a light suddenly attracted his attention. Originally, the color under the ice cave was very beautiful. There were many different colours in it. However, that radiance was abnormally dazzling, as if a diamond was shining under the sunlight. Moreover, after this light flashed, it quickly disappeared! Ye Xiao thought for a while, then walked around the two ice bamboo shoots, towards the place where the light was coming from.

However, he discovered that it was a small river. Of course, calling it a river might not be appropriate, because the water was only palm-sized and its depth could only reach beyond the palm of his hand. Ye Xiao walked forward, squatting down, he extended his hand out towards the small river!

A bone-piercing aura caused Ye Xiao to involuntarily shiver. With Ye Xiao's current constitution, being able to make Ye Xiao feel this, it was enough to say that the cold energy in the water far surpassed the other parts of the ice cave!

"Sword Spirit, why is the water still able to flow under such cold conditions? What kind of water is this? " Ye Xiao asked the Sword Spirit in his body, somewhat astonished.

The Sword Spirit was in the dantian space, pacing back and forth, when it suddenly said excitedly: "Look at the source of this water flow!"

This did not trouble Ye Xiao at all. The water flow was short, and did not flow far before disappearing, as if it was absorbed! After walking a few meters, Ye Xiao discovered a small hole that was a little thicker than his finger, and the water inside the hole flowed out slowly.

"Dig this hole open!" The Sword Spirit said somewhat urgently.

Ye Xiao nodded his head, it was extremely simple, he immediately raised his fist and smashed towards the small hole. "Bam!" After the ice crumbs flew everywhere and the ice surface was smashed into pieces, Ye Xiao realized that there was actually nothing inside, it was only a tiny ice cave laughing loudly at the mouth of a bowl. The water flow seemed to have appeared out of nowhere, and no water source could be found!

"Dig in, lighter, with the sword!" The Sword Spirit's voice trembled slightly.

Ye Xiao was startled, but still took out the broken sword s as instructed, and dug into the small hole in the ice! After digging in for just half a foot, he discovered that the layer of ice had suddenly become soft, as if there was no force involved at all.

The item he pulled out was no longer ice shards, but rather a kind of soft paste that emitted a slight fragrance.

"Stop!" Stop! "Stop!" The Sword Spirit hurriedly said, "Make a hole in that hole, then take out a few jade bottle and catch it!"

"What exactly is inside?" Ye Xiao scratched his head. From the looks of the Sword Spirit, could it be that it was something extraordinary?

Hearing Ye Xiao's question, the Sword Spirit laughed heartily, and then said a name that shocked even Ye Xiao: "anemone!"
