Persistence and patience! Colorful Glazed Ice Heart

Ever since he seized the bronze cauldron and the Miniature World, cutting off half of Ye Tian's Luck, Xiao Fan had become a lucky person due to the ebb and flow of their Qi Luck.

Every hundred miles he traveled, he would encounter an Opportunity, be it an immortal vein mine, a rare Spirit Beast, or even occasionally pick up a Divine Weapon.

Not only that, but the fragment of the Indestructible Blade in his hand, after touching the bronze cauldron, glowed brightly and constantly emitted fluctuations, as if guiding him to something.

After two and a half days, he somewhat understood that it was guiding him in a direction to search for Treasure Troves.

This left him somewhat at a loss.

It was his first time experiencing such flourishing Luck, and Xiao Fan was still unaccustomed to it.

"Is this how a Child of Destiny is treated? Treasures to pick up everywhere he goes."

Xiao Fan had cut off Ye Tian's Opportunity, so the good fortune Ye Tian would have received in the Eternal Gate was naturally taken by Xiao Fan, leading to his current benefits.

Although he mostly didn't care for these things.

Miao Xiaoqing, however, was very attentive, thoughtfully picking them up for him and then presenting the acquired Opportunities to Xiao Fan.

"Master, here's a bronze sword for you."

Miao Xiaoqing's eyes gleamed as she looked at the bronze sword, her heart burning with excitement.

But she understood what was important.

Everything belonged to Xiao Fan; only what Xiao Fan didn't want could Miao Xiaoqing reach out and take.

Seeing the longing in her eyes, Xiao Fan teased, "What, have you taken a liking to this bronze sword?"

Miao Xiaoqing replied, "No, I just thought this sword was quite pretty, so I took a couple more glances. I definitely have no other thoughts."

She denied it repeatedly, fearing she might displease Xiao Fan.

"Hehe, you little cat, your mouth is so sweet."

Xiao Fan was no Saint; when someone flattered him like this, he couldn't help but feel secretly pleased.

However, he wasn't the type to just give things away after hearing a few nice words.

Conditions had to be added.

"Do you want it?" Xiao Fan smiled.

"Just a tiny bit," Miao Xiaoqing said softly, looking pitiful.

Xiao Fan lifted her chin with his right hand, playfully stroking her delicate face. Her skin was as smooth and flawless as congealed fat, her features picturesque, especially those captivating beautiful eyes that stirred unquenchable desire.

Teased by Xiao Fan like this, she inevitably blushed, but since she wanted to obtain this sword, she had to give up something, and all she had to exchange was this beautiful appearance.

"I haven't thought of the conditions yet. If you think you can agree to my uncertain demands, then take it."

Xiao Fan lightly pinched the maiden's earlobe, finding it quite amusing.

Miao Xiaoqing's delicate body trembled slightly; how could she not understand his meaning?

Wasn't it just to let him do as he pleased?

She was already his plaything anyway, so what if he did as he pleased!

Her eyes filled with shyness, and she softly whispered, "I think I can fulfill Master's requests."

Little horny cat, agreeing so quickly, you probably don't know the wickedness of human hearts.

Xiao Fan said nothing more, merely tossing the item to her.

Aside from personal desires, there were also serious matters.

He wanted to elevate Miao Xiaoqing to a Saintess! Naturally, he had to invest some capital to motivate her; relying solely on the deathly pressure of [Life and Death in a Single Thought] wouldn't make her completely subservient to him.

Benefit, threat, plus that tiny bit of dispensable carnal desire, that was the Dao of controlling women.

Ah Kun always felt that the relationship between these two was a bit strange. Master and servant? It didn't quite feel like it.

Forget it, I won't think about it. This is not something a mount like me can comprehend.

Riding the Kunpeng, Xiao Fan flew along, sensing the location of the Myriad Thought Pearl, feeling a bit strange.

"Why is its position constantly changing? Up and down, east and west, hiding and dodging."

After a careful thought, Xiao Fan understood.

This Ye Tian was hiding.

After all, only Ye Tian was present at the Dragon Palace Treasure Trove incident, and the entire Treasure Trove was empty, making it hard not to suspect he had taken it all for himself.

If he didn't hide, it was likely that everyone in the Secret Realm would surround and kill him.

Xiao Fan became interested.

Wants to hide?

I specifically want to throw him into the fire and roast him!

"Ah Kun, speed up. I've thought of something fun."

"Yes."

...

Ye Tian seemed to have turned his Luck around. Ever since he killed three people from the Liu family and slaughtered a village, his days slowly became smoother again.

Initially, he wanted to rescue the natives here, but he had nowhere to hide them.

Coincidentally, the brand on his body attracted a Cultivator from the Liu family.

That Liu family Cultivator tried to kill Ye Tian, but was unexpectedly killed by him instead. Now, he had a Storage Pouch and a Spirit Beast Pouch.

With the Spirit Beast Pouch, Ye Tian could take the Mortals of this world into the pouch.

Of course, he didn't just take people directly.

If he took people directly, they wouldn't be devout. Only by experiencing danger and then acting at the right time could he create his glorious and magnificent image.

Therefore, whenever he found a city, he would make a commotion to attract other Cultivators.

When other Cultivators saw a Mortal city, their hearts burned with desire, and they immediately began to slaughter.

When they were more than half dead and in despair, Ye Tian stepped forward, with an invincible posture, sweeping away the other people in front of these Mortals.

The Mortals all bowed in reverence.

Ye Tian then spoke earnestly, explaining the situation to these Mortals, scaring them into kneeling repeatedly, begging him to save their lives, and willingly sculpting golden statues for him and offering incense.

Ye Tian was torn, but finally reluctantly agreed to take them into his Spirit Beast Pouch.

His methods were a bit dirty, but the goal of gaining the Mortals' trust was achieved.

They were very devout.

Ye Tian repeated the process, gathering a total of three million people before stopping.

"Over three million people. Mortals average one generation every eighteen years. If I occasionally bestow some blessings and ensure good weather, it won't take many years for the population to multiply several times over."

"In less than three hundred years, the population can exceed 100 million."

In Ye Tian's plan, he would raise these people to continuously harvest incense and Dao rhyme from them.

This way, his trip would not be in vain.

Taking out the broken blade to serve as a guide, Ye Tian continued to fly towards his target.

However, as his Qi grew stronger, the blockage in his Meridians became more severe, and he even faintly felt his cultivation regressing, as if fulfilling the saying 'when at its peak, it declines'.

"How strange, is there something wrong with my Physical Body?"

Before he could ponder further, he passed over an ice lake. At this moment, he was ten thousand feet above the lake surface, yet he was still shivering from the icy coldness emanating from the lake.

The bone-chilling coldness pulled him back to reality.

"What's going on? How can there be such extreme cold!"

He used his magical power to erect a protective Qi shield, but it could only barely resist the severe cold.

Ye Tian's gaze narrowed as he looked directly at the lake surface, and his Divine Sense also spread out, but it couldn't penetrate the Jade Lake at all; his Divine Sense was completely blocked.

The Jade Lake wasn't large, just a small lake ten miles square. The lake surface was as white and clean as jade, but the coldness it emitted was enough to freeze a common Human Immortal to death.

Such an unusual place was, more often than not, where a great Treasure Trove was hidden.

The biting cold couldn't stop Ye Tian's burning desire to explore for treasures.

"Bad Luck gone, fortune turned!"

Ye Tian was certain that his good days were about to begin.

He slowly descended, hovering above the ice surface. The ice spikes actually rose from the ice, shooting straight up towards the soles of his feet.

Ye Tian had to dodge, until he ascended to a hundred feet above the lake surface, only then did the ice spikes stop pursuing him.

"Do you want to stop me?"

"Trying to cover up, the more you try to stop me, the more it proves there's a treasure inside."

Ye Tian began to make various attempts. He even used spells to bomb it, but he couldn't break open the ice surface, which made him a bit anxious.

The great Treasure Trove was right beneath his feet. The longer he delayed, the more people would arrive.

By then, his initial advantage would be gone.

After thinking for a moment, Ye Tian gritted his teeth and stomped his foot, choosing to penetrate the lake with his Physical Body.

As expected, this worked.

"Indeed, brute force won't work. I can only resist the Yin cold with Yang Qi and pave the way with my Physical Body."

Although he found the method, it was not easy.

Before Ye Tian even got close to the lake surface, hundred-foot-tall ice spikes would freeze him. This meant he had to melt the ice spikes by facing them to reach the lake surface.

And the distance from the lake surface to the lake bottom was unknown.

But Ye Tian was not afraid; he had seen many such trials involving fire and water.

It was all about endurance and perseverance, and he was best at enduring!

He advanced step by step, the ice spikes rising from the lake surface froze him into an ice sculpture, but Ye Tian moved against the current, stubbornly using his Physical Body to melt an empty path and move forward.

One day, two days, three days...

Seven days passed in a flash, and Ye Tian barely reached the lake surface, where the cold was even more biting than the ice spikes above the surface.

The extreme cold made his Physical Body pale and stiff. The physical torment was bearable, but the suffering of his Soul was agonizing; the cold of the lake froze his Divine Soul, making it tremble.

If not for his strong will, his Divine Soul would probably have been frozen solid.

"Endure, I will endure, I will endure again!"

Ye Tian gritted his teeth and persevered, even though his teeth were constantly chattering, making a grinding sound.

At a height of a hundred miles in the clouds, a Kunpeng with a wingspan of a hundred feet stood on the wind, suspended above the sky.

Xiao Fan stood on the Kunpeng's back, looking down, making no movement.

He had arrived at the Ice Jade Lake five days ago.

He just saw Ye Tian looking for an Opportunity and didn't make a move.

[Ding, the hidden Opportunity location of the Child of Destiny, Ice Jade Lake, has been triggered.]

[Beneath the Ice Jade Lake lies a Seven-Colored Glazed Ice Heart. This is a sacred object of the Ice Soul Clan, the origin of the Ice Soul Clan. Its seven colors represent seven different Divine Abilities, each possessing world-shaking, unparalleled power. Even a Grand Unity Golden Immortal would drool at the sight of this item.]

[Exploring the lake surface is too difficult; only by using one's Physical Body to clear a path is there no other way.]

[It is recommended that the Host first wait for the dog Child of Destiny to clear the path, and then intercept him, avoiding the suffering of freezing.]

[The main point is to utilize the dog Child of Destiny, making him suffer all kinds of hardships and torments.]

Good, I knew the Child of Destiny wouldn't be that simple.

Xiao Fan watched Ye Tian clear the path with his Physical Body, his Divine Soul trembling from the extreme cold, and couldn't help but feel grateful, 'You truly are a good person.'

For my Opportunity, you silently persevere and endure. You are the most tenacious Child of Destiny I have ever seen.

Alright, the words of gratitude have been said. Xiao Fan's mind drifted to the heavens, thinking of the beautiful woman in the distance.

The origin of the Ice Soul Clan, isn't that Yuhong's clan?

Thinking of Lan Yuhong, Xiao Fan felt a sense of longing. Obedient, sweet, sensible, and not clingy, she only accompanied him when he needed her. Lan Yuhong's charm was what he enjoyed the most, the most relaxing.

Youthful and sweet, lovely and charming, with eyes only for him, seeing him as her only one!

How could he not love such a sworn sister?

Alright, this Seven-Colored Glazed Ice Heart shall be prepared for Yuhong!

Good afternoon.
