The vast lake, half ice and half fire, presented such an eerie scene right before Chu Feng. "How could there be such a lake here?" Chu Feng was stunned, as such a scene was inconsistent with common sense.
"This is what those two terrifying beads have transformed into. Back then, those two beads killed many of us, even I was severely injured by them and eventually became this state today." The Blue Dragon Taoist explained.
"Really so powerful?" Chu Feng couldn't help but gasp in astonishment. Even the Blue Dragon Taoist was killed by those two beads. How ferocious would those beads be?
"Of course powerful. After we broke through multiple obstacles and killed several evil spirits, we saw those three beads and thought we had obtained a precious treasure. But it turned out to be a fatal disaster."
"Fortunately, the ice beads and fire beads seem inseparable from the bead in my hand. So although their power is strong, they lost their terrifying power soon and eventually fell into this lake, transforming into the current form."
"More precisely, those two beads are already dead, but their remains are still there, and they still possess certain threats and special powers."
"The place where I want you to train is here. Although they are dead, they still retain their unique power. Here, the cold and hot air coexist, which will interfere with your mental power."
"But it is beneficial for you to enhance your control over mental power. As long as you can control your mental power freely on this ice and fire lake, then performing Dragon's Nine Heavens should not be a problem."
"Alright, start training now." As the Blue Dragon Taoist spoke, he turned and left, seemingly not planning to personally guide Chu Feng. However, not long after he left, he said to Chu Feng again, "Chu Feng, this is the final boundary. Don't go any deeper. There are some guys there that even I, now, can't handle."
After saying this, the Blue Dragon Taoist floated away. And the extremely curious Chu Feng, after the Blue Dragon Taoist left, deliberately bypassed the ice and fire lake to see what was behind it. Finally, he finally understood why the Blue Dragon Taoist didn't allow Chu Feng to go any further.
Because behind the ice and fire lake, the Demonic Destruction Spell had already appeared, and its area was extremely wide, stretching as far as the eye could see. This mostly indicated that there were very strong or many evil spirits in that depth.
"Ah, Emperor Burial, it's truly beyond reach. For now, I should focus on practicing my Dragon's Nine Heavens." Chu Feng, in front of Emperor Burial, always felt extremely insignificant.
After hearing the words of the Black Tortoise Shield Technique and the Blue Dragon Taoist's experience, and seeing the strange lake formed by the two beads in Emperor Burial, he increasingly realized how weak he was and how insignificant his power was.
However, Chu Feng wasn't discouraged. After all, he was still young and as long as he was willing to work hard and create opportunities, becoming stronger was just a matter of time. So Chu Feng began to head towards the strange ice and fire lake.
"This thing is really strange."
Before approaching, Chu Feng felt two strange breaths coming towards him, one was a bone-chilling cold air, and the other was a scorching hot air. These two gases, which shouldn't coexist, strangely merged into one.
Fortunately, Chu Feng was still able to withstand this strange gas. Eventually, Chu Feng walked onto the lake surface. Although Chu Feng's physical body could withstand the strange gas, his mental power was interfered with by this gas and became difficult to control.
As the Blue Dragon Taoist said, Chu Feng was truly affected by the special energy here. As a ghostly robe realm spirit master, his mental power was originally very strong, but he couldn't concentrate his mental power.
However, this is precisely the training that Qinglong Daoist wants Chu Feng to undertake. That is, to control his spiritual energy on this ice and fire lake. If he succeeds, then Chu Feng's control over spiritual energy will improve further, and he will have the opportunity to perform "Dragon's Flight Nine Altitudes".
So it is. From this day forward, Chu Feng will come to this ice and fire lake every day for training. And this training will last for a month. This can be said to be the longest time Chu Feng has spent on cultivating a martial skill.
Fortunately, during this month, Chu Feng did not waste his time. Starting from the initial inability to condense spiritual energy, he gradually gained simple control, and now Chu Feng can freely control his spiritual energy on this ice and fire lake.
"Success! Finally, it's successful. I can now freely control my spiritual energy here as I please."
At this moment, Chu Feng stands in the center of the ice and fire lake. On one side is the bone-chilling ice, and on the other is the surging flames. Chu Feng surrounds his body with spiritual energy, forming an invisible shield that protects his body from the erosion of the cold and flames.
"Beep." Suddenly, Chu Feng's mind moved, and his spiritual energy spread like a tide from his mind, probing downwards into the ice and fire lake.
After successfully controlling the manipulation of spiritual energy, Chu Feng did not rush to practice the mysterious martial skill "Dragon's Flight Nine Altitudes". Instead, he wanted to carefully sense this ice and fire lake formed by the two terrifying beads.
Chu Feng's spiritual energy pierced through the flames, broke through the ice layer, and reached the depths. The deeper he went, the stronger the bone-chilling coldness and terrifying heat he could feel.
"Ugh!" Suddenly, Chu Feng's eyes suddenly opened wide, and his entire body trembled involuntarily. His eyes revealed an unprecedented sense of fear and unease.
Because, just as his spiritual energy reached the bottom of the lake, he sensed two living beings. These living beings seemed to have been in a deep sleep for thousands of years, but due to his spiritual energy, they suddenly woke up.
"Boom!" At this moment, a loud noise came from under his feet, and at the same time, a powerful force shot up into the sky.
The powerful force carried Chu Feng directly into the air. At the same time, around Chu Feng, there were swirling clouds of ice and surging flames. This sealed-for-thousands-of-years ice and fire lake was revived.
"Damn it! I seem to have done something irreversible!"
At this moment, Chu Feng didn't need to think much. He already knew what had happened. Apparently, those two terrifying beads did not die but were sleeping at the bottom of the lake. Chu Feng had unintentionally awakened them just now.
Thinking of all those skilled people having been killed by those two pearls, even Qinglong Daoist was also killed by them, Chu Feng had no time to think much. He hurriedly adjusted his body in mid-air and cast the aerial control technique, starting to run rapidly towards the direction where Qinglong Daoist was located.
"Boom"
But before Chu Feng had flown far, there was another loud noise behind him. At the same time, a pair of extremely cold and a pair of scorching breaths also flew out from the bottom of the lake.
Looking back, Chu Feng's pupils suddenly shrank, and a look of horror appeared on his face. Because he could see that a blue pearl and a red pearl, like the eyes of two demons, were running towards him at an unimaginable speed.
