Chapter 4648: Ice Soul Immortal Lord

The Kunlun Dao Ancestor flicked his sleeve, and a nine-colored crystal core shot out, flying towards Wang Changsheng."This is the crystal core of a Daluo Golden Immortal-level Royal Beast. You've worked hard," the Kunlun Dao Ancestor said with a benevolent expression.He didn't possess a Dao Artifact, but he had a set of top-grade Immortal Artifacts, refined with Primordial Spirit Treasures, crafted with the assistance of several Fourth-Tier Immortal Artifact Masters. The fact that Wang Changsheng could refine one by himself indicated his exceptionally high artifact-refining skill."It is my honor to serve Senior Zhang; it's no hardship at all," Wang Changsheng humbly replied, accepting the crystal core."Cultivate diligently. If the Hunxie King's tribe attacks Green Lotus City, I will send people to assist you," the Kunlun Dao Ancestor said. Since Wang Changsheng could refine one set, he could refine a second. With Wang Changsheng available, the Kunlun Dao Ancestor only needed to gather the materials for him to help with artifact refinement."Yes, Senior Zhang," Wang Changsheng agreed, then left Kunlun Hall and returned to Green Lotus City.

"Master, can we obtain the secret technique for opening ten apertures?" asked Fairy Longyue."It's hard to say. The secret technique for opening ten apertures is the highest-level scripture in the Immortal Realm. With a complete set of top-grade Immortal Artifacts refined with Primordial Spirit Treasures, we can try. If we could find the hidden treasures of the Dao Family Lin, it wouldn't be so troublesome," the Kunlun Dao Ancestor explained.The Dao Family Lin possessed the secret technique for opening ten apertures, which was one of the keys to their becoming a Dao Family, and also one of the reasons for their gradual decline. Without a Dao Ancestor, the Lin family couldn't protect the secret technique for opening ten apertures and was coveted by other forces.

"The Lin family's hidden treasures? After all these years, why haven't their descendants retrieved them?" Fairy Longyue asked, puzzled."It's hard to say. The Lin family's gradual decline might have been intentional, perhaps to protect the secret technique for opening ten apertures, or maybe they sought refuge. In any case, the core descendants of the Lin family definitely possess the secret technique for opening ten apertures," the Kunlun Dao Ancestor said gravely."Can't we find the Lin family members using the Law of Karma?" Fairy Longyue pressed."Indeed, some have tried, but it's difficult to locate the Lin family's core members. It's not out of the question that someone might have obtained the secret technique for opening ten apertures using this method. There were immortals who mastered the Aperture Fusion Technique in the past, but they quickly vanished," the Kunlun Dao Ancestor said, then seemed to recall something and added, "You may go and attend to your duties.""Yes, Master," Fairy Longyue replied. She agreed and withdrew."The secret technique for opening ten apertures! The Lin family," the Kunlun Dao Ancestor murmured to himself, a pensive expression on his face.

Green Lotus City, Green Lotus Peak.Wang Changsheng and Wang Qingbai were seated in a green stone pavilion, chatting idly."Father, these are the Profound Snake Pills, Dragon Marrow Pills, and Phoenix Ganoderma Pills I've refined," Wang Qingbai said, taking out three golden porcelain bottles and handing them to Wang Changsheng. With the Calabash of Time in hand, Wang Qingbai could freely dedicate himself to alchemy.Wang Changsheng nodded and asked, "Qingshan and Qingfeng have them too, right?" He and Wang Ruyan had already cultivated into peak Immortal Physiques and had no use for these three types of immortal pills, but they could be used for exchange with other Daluo Golden Immortals."Yes, they all do," Wang Qingbai nodded.Wang Changsheng took out a blue storage bracelet, handed it to Wang Qingbai, and said, "This contains immortal herbs. Take them for alchemy.""Thank you, Father." Wang Qingbai expressed his gratitude and accepted the blue storage bracelet.Wang Yixin entered, her expression grave."Ancestor, Ice Soul Immortal Lord, the Deputy Palace Master of the Northern Cold Immortal Palace, is visiting. He says he has an urgent matter to discuss with Ancestor Qiulin," Wang Yixin reported.Wang Chuanming, using his position, easily obtained intelligence on the Northern Cold Immortal Palace. Information on most of the immortals in the Northern Cold Immortal Palace was recorded in the Wang family's Dark Hall, accessible only to high-ranking members of the Wang family. The Yama Palace had a long history and had collected intelligence on many forces. Wang Chuanming could easily access this information, greatly saving manpower and resources."Ice Soul Immortal Lord? Let Qiulin meet him and see what he wants. If he's looking for someone, first keep him steady, then contact me," Wang Changsheng instructed."Yes, Ancestor," Wang Yixin replied, taking her leave."Qingbai, you should also go back. Refine more Fourth-Tier immortal pills. I hope you all can cultivate into peak Immortal Physiques," Wang Changsheng instructed.Wang Qingbai acknowledged and left Green Lotus Peak.Wang Changsheng picked up the teapot, poured himself a cup of immortal tea, and took a sip.After a moment, Wang Changsheng took out a blue glowing magic disk, infused it with a spell, and his expression darkened. Ice Soul Immortal Lord wanted Wang Qiulin to help divine Lei Xiao's whereabouts. Wang Changsheng had clearly severed all of Lei Xiao's karmic lines, which suggested Ice Soul Immortal Lord possessed a high-grade karmic immortal artifact, or perhaps Ice Soul Immortal Lord himself, or another high-ranking immortal from the Northern Cold Immortal Palace, had mastered the Law of Karma or owned such an artifact.Wang Changsheng made several gestures on the magic disk, then entered a secret room where the Green Lotus Creation Cauldron resided.He spoke, "Good thing I was cautious. If someone tries to divine Lei Xiao's whereabouts, you can conceal the divination, right?""I've recovered most of my power, so concealment is no problem. Actually, there's no need for such trouble; I could just strike him dead," Qing Xuan's voice replied."No need for that. If he asks Qiulin to divine, and Qiulin isn't struck by lightning, it wouldn't make sense. Besides, activating a lightning tribulation consumes a lot of energy. Concealment is enough," Wang Changsheng said. He stored Lei Xiao's Nascent Soul inside the Green Lotus Creation Cauldron, making it easy for Qing Xuan to provide concealment. If Wang Changsheng had directly destroyed Lei Xiao's Nascent Soul, it would have created karmic lines, which he wanted to avoid."Alright then," Qing Xuan agreed.

At Nine Palaces Peak, Chu Yurou was seated in a green stone pavilion with a white-robed old man of medium build, engaged in conversation. The white-robed old man was Ice Soul Immortal Lord, a Daluo Golden Immortal at the middle stage of cultivation who had mastered the Law of Soul. Two Daluo Golden Immortals had gone missing, and Northern Cold Immortal Lord had dispatched Ice Soul Immortal Lord to investigate. With no clues, he happened to hear that Wang Qiulin had advanced to Daluo Golden Immortal and thus came to seek Wang Qiulin's help. To enlist Wang Qiulin's assistance, Ice Soul Immortal Lord offered a Primordial Spirit Treasure and the crystal core of an early Daluo Golden Immortal-level nine-colored Chaos Beast, hoping to divine Lei Xiao's whereabouts. Ice Soul Immortal Lord didn't even remember Lei Xiao's existence; he had merely been instructed by Northern Cold Immortal Lord to find the individual."By the way, Madam Wang, I have long heard of Grand Clarity Immortal Lord's great reputation. I wonder if I might have the honor of meeting him?" Ice Soul Immortal Lord politely asked. The Green Lotus Immortal Couple was renowned, and since he was already in Green Lotus City, he naturally hoped to meet them."Grandfather is in cultivation. I haven't seen him in a long time either. How about this? I'll ask Yixin," Chu Yurou said. Of course, she knew Wang Changsheng had come out of seclusion. Too many Daluo Golden Immortals wanted Wang Changsheng's help, making it not easy to meet him.Chu Yurou took out a golden glowing magic disk and infused it with a spell. A moment later, a sharp ringing sound came from the magic disk. She glanced at it, shook her head, and said, "My apologies, Senior Qin, Grandfather is in closed-door cultivation and has not yet emerged.""In that case, never mind. I hope Fellow Daoist Wang can successfully divine it," Ice Soul Immortal Lord said with a face full of regret.
