Chapter 1203: Entering the Spirit Incense, Three Yin Classics

After Chen Mobai stepped into the Lesser Yin Cavern, he discovered it was a colossal natural ice cave with a vast interior. Long, sword-like icicles hung from the ceiling, and the ground was covered with a layer of hard ice.

From the top of the ice cave, mysterious lights glowed, reflecting and refracting between the ice walls, making the entire cavern appear dazzling and colorful, as if one were in a fantastical rainbow world.

No wonder the Three Veins of Ice Heaven called this place the "Illusory Rainbow Spirit Cave."

Before Chen Mobai realized it, he had already reached the depths of the ice cave. Here, it was even more spacious and brighter, with shimmering ice crystals covering the surrounding walls, and a cool, crisp fragrance permeated the air.

Amidst the fragrance, Chen Mobai felt his spiritual sense becoming somewhat diffused. He immediately focused his mind and activated his Pure Yang True Fire, causing it to flare around his body.

After the fragrance dissipated, he saw illusory figures and glittering characters appear on the surrounding ice crystal walls.

This was clearly the inheritance of the Icy Heavens and Snowy Earth.

Under his Divine Transformation realm spiritual sense, these figures seemed alive, performing various actions and even illustrating meridians. In conjunction with the characters, they formed sections of long-lost cultivation techniques of the Icy Heavens and Snowy Earth.

Chen Mobai scanned all the figures and characters from the ice crystal walls into his Heaven Reckoning Pearl, then briefly comprehended them using his Five Tones of Law.

He found that this was the complete volume of the Lesser Yin Sutra, part of the Three Yin Sutra.

Chapters ranging from Qi Condensation to Divine Transformation, various complementary divine abilities and secret arts, medicinal formulas and secret elixirs, and even artifact refining methods—everything was present.

However, there was no method for refining the Lesser Yin Dao Fruit, which was what Chen Mobai was most concerned about.

He thought it might be deeper in the ice cave, so he continued forward, but soon he reached the end.

He saw the ice crystal waterfall outside the cavern entrance. Chen Mobai then felt he might have missed something on the way, so he walked back again. However, during his return, he discovered a powerful resistance emerging, attempting to forcefully bind him and render him immobile.

Han Xingzi had once said that in this Illusory Rainbow Spirit Cave, once someone entered, they could not turn back.

Whatever one could comprehend in a single pass was all there was.

But for Chen Mobai, it was not like that.

He directly employed Void Walking, instantly teleporting to the three divergent cavern entrances where he had started.

He re-entered the Lesser Yin Cavern, activating his Heaven Reckoning Pearl for the entire duration, and scanned everything within the ice cave.

But after exiting the cavern again, Chen Mobai compared it to his previous findings and found no differences.

This meant that while the Illusory Rainbow Spirit Cave contained the inheritance of the Three Yin Sutra, it still lacked chapters concerning the Dao Fruit and Void Refinement.

The Icy Heavens and Snowy Earth were a bit too secretive about their cultivation techniques.

This was Chen Mobai's first thought.

He looked up at Snowy Cloud Peak.

That was the place where True Monarch Suìyù had transcended. If any content about the Dao Fruit and Void Refinement was left behind, it could obviously only be found there.

However, he waited for a long time but Han Xingzi and Senior Luo Ying did not emerge from the other two cavern entrances.

Chen Mobai even thought they might be slow-witted, unlike him who could quickly comprehend the inheritance in the Illusory Rainbow Spirit Cave, so he waited for another long period.

But a full three days passed, and he still hadn't seen them appear.

Chen Mobai found it odd, so he simply used Void Walking to return to the three-way cavern entrance.

He followed the Lunar Yin Cavern that Han Xingzi had entered. When he was halfway there, he once again smelled that mysterious, cool fragrance.

Soon after, he saw Han Xingzi, unconscious in the cavern.

After Chen Mobai scanned the Lunar Yin Sutra from this location as well, he reached out and tapped Han Xingzi's glabella. Under the Lamp Lighting Art, the mysterious fragrance within him was quickly dispelled.

After a heavy breath, Han Xingzi awoke, instinctively unleashing a powerful frost radiance divine ability, but it was suppressed and crushed by a single finger from Chen Mobai.

"Awake?"

As Chen Mobai's words reached his ears, Han Xingzi finally opened his eyes and immediately stood up to thank him.

"Thank you, Sect Master Chen, for your intervention. If it weren't for you, I might never have woken up."

"Oh, you know what happened?"

Chen Mobai asked, somewhat surprised.

Han Xingzi nodded with a bitter smile and said, "This is the Soul-Entering Incense from my Icy Heavens and Snowy Earth inheritance. It is said to be condensed from a unique wood obtained by our patriarch from the Purple Cloud Heavenly Palace. Once lit, it can burn for a thousand years. When cultivators smell it, they can enter the deepest state of meditative trance, aiding in the comprehension of cultivation techniques and inheritances. However, it is only for Divine Transformation cultivators; if Nascent Soul cultivators smell too much, they can easily sink into the trance. When several of our Suìyù Palace patriarchs first entered the mausoleum, they could smell this fragrance and thus identified it. At that time, it was burning on Snowy Cloud Peak, but according to the passage of time, it should have extinguished long ago..."

Hearing Han Xingzi's words, Chen Mobai, however, thought of a possibility.

"You're saying, could it be that True Monarch Suìyù is still alive on Snowy Cloud Peak?"

These words from Chen Mobai made Han Xingzi shiver, his face showing horror.

"Sect Master Chen, you certainly know how to joke."

Han Xingzi swallowed and said with a dry laugh.

"You go out first; I'll go wake up Senior Luo Ying as well."

Chen Mobai pointed towards the end of the cavern entrance. Although Han Xingzi didn't know how Chen Mobai could bypass the restrictions, he wisely didn't ask further. It was normal for a Divine Transformation grand-ancestor to possess formidable methods.

After watching Han Xingzi's back disappear, Chen Mobai transformed into a streak of silver light and vanished from the spot.

But after traversing the Profound Yin Cavern, Chen Mobai did not find any trace of Senior Luo Ying.

This made him frown deeply.

How could such a large living person simply vanish?

Could it be that she wasn't affected by the Soul-Entering Incense and walked out on her own?

Thinking of this, Chen Mobai also scanned the Profound Yin Sutra from this location into his Heaven Reckoning Pearl. After collecting the complete Three Yin Sutra, he stepped out of the Illusory Rainbow Spirit Cave.

At the end of the cavern entrance, Chen Mobai, however, only saw Han Xingzi.

"Where's Junior Sister?"

Seeing Chen Mobai emerge alone, Han Xingzi asked with some surprise.

Chen Mobai's expression grew solemn. He gazed at Han Xingzi deeply for a while until the latter's heart was pounding wildly, then he sighed and said, "She's not in the cavern. I thought she had already left. Since you haven't seen her, something might have happened to her."

Hearing this, Han Xingzi's face turned pale.

For him, to mysteriously disappear right under the nose of a Divine Transformation cultivator was simply too terrifying.

"It couldn't be..." Recalling the Soul-Entering Incense from earlier and Chen Mobai's words, Han Xingzi stammered slightly, looking towards Snowy Cloud Peak.

"Let's go. Now we can only go to the mountaintop to see."

As Chen Mobai said this, his Heavenly Access Charm had already warned him again.

This was already very clear.

On the mountaintop, there was a power that could threaten him.

Combined with Senior Luo Ying's mysterious disappearance and the suddenly lit Soul-Entering Incense, it indicated that there must be some living being on Snowy Cloud Peak.

But whether it was True Monarch Suìyù or not was unknown.

As Chen Mobai's words fell, Han Xingzi's face, however, showed hesitation.

He remembered the last time he entered this Ice-Sealed Mausoleum, when an elder from their Suìyù Palace, after passing the waterfall and entering Snowy Cloud Peak, suddenly turned into an ice sculpture and lifelessly flew down from the mountain.

However, that time, Senior Luo Ying had sensed the aura of the Profound Yin Dao Fruit on the mountaintop, and had even resonated with it through a secret art.

"Senior, how about you go up, and I wait for you here?"

Han Xingzi eventually mustered the courage to say this. Chen Mobai glanced at him, and as the latter, feeling guilty, couldn't help but lower his head, Chen Mobai said nothing. He simply controlled his Blazing Dragon and flew directly towards Snowy Cloud Peak.

Seeing Chen Mobai fly away, Han Xingzi subtly let out a sigh of relief.

He turned, intending to head towards where the waterfall fell. There was a snow path leading directly to Mirror Lake, which could take him back to the cavern entrance opened by the Profound Yin Divine Talisman.

However, if he were to truly abandon Chen Mobai in the Ice-Sealed Mausoleum and leave alone, it was estimated that the Three Veins of Ice Heaven would be overturned by the Five Elements Sect afterwards.

Although this matter was supposed to be kept secret, the Divine Transformation cultivators from the Three Great Sacred Lands, such as the Dao Sect, knew about it.

Even if the Three Great Sacred Lands wouldn't avenge Chen Mobai, if Chen Mobai went missing, they would definitely inform the Five Elements Sect.

Thinking of this, Han Xingzi gritted his teeth and conjured his Lunar Yin Pearl, preparing to wait at the cavern entrance first, and if things went south, then escape.

At that time, he would say that Sect Master Chen sacrificed himself to save him, and his Junior Sister, Senior Luo Ying, also perished in the mausoleum.

He'd bestow some praise upon the Five Elements Sect, hoping that, considering they were both righteous sects, they wouldn't wipe them out completely.

Just as Han Xingzi arrived beneath the ice crystal waterfall, suddenly, a tremor shook the ground.

The summit of the ancient, majestic snowy mountain was being encircled by a blazing, fiery dragon. The thick, dense mist at the mountaintop, under the dragon's fiery breath, began to slowly dissipate, revealing its true appearance, never before seen by the Three Veins of Ice Heaven.
