The rag picking sister turned out to be a weapon refiner

After getting the answer, Hu Xingtong did not stay any longer and pulled Han Qianyu and the other person to the edge of the cold pond. In order to prevent the two from freezing to death as soon as they went in, and to avoid exposing his own strange fire, Hu Xingtong chose the most embarrassing way of delivery.

Hu Xingtong first guided Han Qianyu and the other demon to get close to each other, then under the gaze of the two people and the demon, she pursed her lips, approached the two with a blushing face, and then stretched out her arms to hold the two in her arms.

At this moment, Tan Yuruo and Han Qianyu were so shocked by this action that they were speechless. They stood there in confusion, feeling the scorching body temperature of Hu Xingtong, and even felt a hint of burning sensation.

Qingyue, on the other hand, was watching with great interest. She took out a handful of small seeds from somewhere and started eating them intermittently. Hu Xingtong couldn't help but want to tear the seeds into pieces when she saw the way she was eating them.

Gradually, Han Qianyu and the other person felt as if their whole bodies were wrapped in a warm space. The warm feeling was as if they were in a hot spring, comfortable and warm, and it swept away all the coldness around them in an instant.

Qingyue, who saw this scene, inevitably received a warning look from Hu Xingtong, but despite this, she just shrugged her shoulders good-naturedly, supported her chin and looked at Hu Xingtong gently. Seeing this, Hu Xingtong ignored her. This monster was weird and he always felt something was wrong.

After protecting Han Qianyu and the other two, Hu Xingtong pulled them into the water. In the water, Hu Xingtong drew another barrier symbol in front of them before speaking, "Are you feeling cold?"

The two looked at her and shook their heads. Seeing that they were silent, Hu Xingtong reminded them, "You can talk, but there's no water here."

At this point, the two of them spoke, "It's not cold, it feels about the same temperature as our sect."

"That's good. I'll hold you guys in my arms later so we can get to the secret realm as quickly as possible."

The two nodded and took action immediately, each stretching out a hand to grab Hu Xingtong's clothes. Seeing this, Hu Xingtong just smiled, stretched out his hand to hold the other hands of the two, and gathered the spiritual power under his feet again. The spiritual power light ball after the explosion brought a sense of bursting impact, which made the two people unable to react for a while, and they were almost washed away by the strong impact of the water.

After finally reaching Qing Huanjian's position, the two finally had a chance to catch their breath. The feeling of falling backward at a speed close to life and death made Tan Yuruo feel as if she was going to meet her ancestors. She almost had the illusion that her soul was leaving her body. Han Qianyu walked forward with a normal expression. If you looked closely, there was a hint of unsuppressed lingering desire on her face.

Approaching the slightly opened entrance to the secret realm, Han Qianyu and the others looked at the deep crack. Although they felt uneasy, they were more curious about the unknown and eager to explore.

"We are ready, let's go in together." Han Qianyu composed himself and said calmly.

Hu Xingtong nodded, took back the Qing Huan Sword, and carefully checked it. After making sure that there was nothing wrong with Gu Xunzhou, he pulled the two of them into the secret realm.

The environment within the secret realm differed from that within the cold pond. The light within was soft and eerie, as if it were a world of its own, completely different from the harsh cold wind outside. A light mist permeated the surroundings, through which glimpses of lush trees and crisscrossing rock formations could be seen. The air was filled with the refreshing fragrance of earth and flowers, bringing a sense of peace and tranquility.

But opposite to this seemingly spring-like world is an endless expanse of white snow. In this world, you can vaguely see snow-covered woods and grasslands, as well as vaguely visible mountains shrouded in white fog.

The three of them were standing at the center of the two worlds. To their left was the white world covered with snow, and to their right was the land full of vitality. The two worlds were clearly separated, and a clear boundary line was formed under their feet.

"Where are we going?" Tan Yuruo asked her two senior sisters, her eyes wandering between two different areas.

Hu Xingtong gazed at the bizarre scene of two worlds before him, his brow furrowed slightly, as if pondering some important decision. Han Qianyu also appeared quite cautious, his gaze darting back and forth between the two worlds, trying to find a clue or sense which side was safer or more advantageous.

"The coexistence of these two worlds must have a reason," Hu Xingtong said slowly, a hint of contemplation in his voice. "The white world may seem cold and desolate, but it may hide unknown secrets or opportunities. On the other side, brimming with vitality and seemingly peaceful, it may also harbor dangers. The purpose of our journey is to explore the secret realm and seek opportunities, but if we blindly step into the unknown, we may encounter unexpected events."

"Xiao Wuzi, where are my brothers?" Hu Xingtong asked the system in his heart. Although he said so, it was undoubtedly difficult for someone with indecisiveness to make the choice.

"I'm like your radar. Can't you just turn on your scanning eye and take a look?" The system said this harshly, but its actions were endearingly honest. It helped Hu Xingtong scan both sides of the territory before saying, "Go left. Qingyue left Sun Ze and the other two on the iceberg in the secret realm. Their robes are almost worn out, and they're almost frozen to death."

Upon hearing this, Hu Xingtong immediately called out to Han Qianyu and the others, saying, "Senior Sister, go to the left. My sixth sense tells me that something has happened to my senior brothers and the others."

As he spoke, Hu Xingtong pulled the two of them and rushed into the white snow world. While on the way, he asked the system about the situation of Sun Ze and the other two. The system also considerately transmitted the current situation of Sun Ze and the other two to Hu Xingtong's brain.

The two men were covered with ice chips, and the light of their robes was gradually fading. Xiao Yuheng huddled beside Sun Ze, while Sun Ze continued to condense the life fire in his hands. The green flame rose and extinguished in Sun Ze's palms, just like the two men's current state, without any life at all.

"Why is the temperature of the icebergs here so low? Logically, cultivators are protected by spiritual power. I still don't understand why we are so afraid of the severe cold in Hanlu Mountain." Hu Xingtong asked the question that had been buried deep in his heart.

The system listened and patiently explained: "The temperatures on Hanlu Mountain and this iceberg aren't the sub-zero temperatures you experience in the real world. Instead, they're a natural extreme cold, similar to a cold poison. While cultivators have spiritual power to protect them, they can't resist the cold poison. This cold poison persists in the air, permeating the skin through the temperature, and triggering a chilling reaction in the body. This can cause frostbite or even death from freezing, as you've experienced in the real world."

"How long can they hold on with their physical strength?" Hu Xingtong pulled Han Qianyu and the other two and summoned wings directly. He didn't even have time to explain or cover up. He just took them with a clear goal and went straight to where Sun Ze and the other two were.

[Sun Ze still has his lifeblood, so he can hold on a bit longer. Xiao Yuheng's condition is already failing. At your current speed, you should be able to arrive in about fifteen minutes, which is barely enough time to treat him.]

"Sisters and junior sisters, hold on to me. I need to speed up. Fourth Junior Brother and Elite Brother are in danger now. The robes I gave them seem to be ineffective." Hu Xingtong explained briefly, then pulled the two of them and started to speed up.

However, Han Qianyu stopped her at this moment and said, "Third Junior Sister, I'll take you there. My spiritual power is more suitable for this environment. You should take this opportunity to conserve your strength. I'll be relying on you later."

Hu Xingtong stopped arguing and immediately gave his seat to Han Qianyu and told Han Qianyu the approximate location.

So, next, Hu Xingtong and Tan Yuruo had the opportunity to experience the thrill of the ice boat gliding in the air, and then, they vomited it out the moment Han Qianyu reached the destination.
