According to the memories of the Bai family spy who had his soul searched, the icy spring that Jiang Yuchuan was looking for was discovered by the Bai family more than a year ago.

The Bai family's residence is located in the Polar City, directly north of Dali.

The area around Polar City is the coldest place in the entire Great Li region; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say it's like winter all year round. For almost seven or eight months of the year, there is heavy snow and howling winds.

It is precisely because of this frigid environment that the unique landscape of Polar City has been created, surrounded on three sides by towering, continuous snow-capped mountains and glaciers.

And that icy spring is hidden in one of these snow-capped mountains.

With Jiang Yuchuan speeding at full speed, he soon arrived above Polar City.

Looking down at the vast expanse of snow-capped mountains and glaciers, which stretched out in all directions, Jiang Yuchuan released his divine sense and began to search inch by inch.

After being rebuffed twice in the desolate desert and at the Yeshi Mine, Jiang Yuchuan refused to believe that this small, cold spring could shield him from his divine sense.

Sure enough, Jiang Yuchuan soon discovered a clue in a seemingly low and inconspicuous snow mountain.

Deep within that snow-capped mountain, there was a chilling aura far surpassing that of other places.

After locking onto the location, Jiang Yuchuan's figure blurred, and he landed directly in front of the low snow mountain.

Although the snow-capped mountain looks quite small, it is right next to a wide and thick glacier. The entrance to the cave deep into the snow-capped mountain is located on one of the ice walls of the glacier.

The Bai family seemed to have intentionally prevented the cave entrance from being discovered by outsiders. They used a large block of solid ice to firmly seal the entrance and made many other camouflages around it, so that people could easily overlook its location if they accidentally passed by.

Jiang Yuchuan walked to the ice cave and had a sudden idea. Instead of using force to destroy the block of ice blocking the entrance, he pushed it aside.

As soon as the ice cave was revealed, a chilling aura rushed towards us.

This chill, though from the same source as the one Jiang Yuchuan collected from the patients, was far superior.

If an ordinary person with no internal energy cultivation came here, they would probably freeze to death in less than a quarter of an hour.

The ice cave is not very big, only a little over ten feet high, and can only accommodate two people walking side by side at most.

The further Jiang Yuchuan went, the dimmer and colder the light became.

Soon, the deep blue in my vision was replaced by pitch black.

With the aid of his divine sense, the presence or absence of light had no effect on Jiang Yuchuan. Therefore, even though he could not see his own hand in front of his face, Jiang Yuchuan's speed did not slow down at all.

The ice cave wasn't particularly winding or complex, nor did it have any mechanisms to prevent outsiders from entering. Jiang Yuchuan walked out of the ice cave and arrived at the location of the cold spring in just the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.

What appeared before Jiang Yuchuan was a huge, naturally formed cave.

Hundreds of crystal-clear icicles, like jewels, hang from the ceiling of the cave.

Although these icicles vary in size, the smallest is larger than an adult, while the largest and thickest are so large that several people cannot encircle them, hanging directly from the cave ceiling to the ground.

Although the cave is huge, it is still completely dark because it is located deep in the snow-capped mountains.

Unlike the ice cave leading here, even though sunlight can't penetrate, it's not dark inside at all. The icicles hanging from the ceiling all shimmer with a brilliant, deep blue light, illuminating the entire cave as if it were daytime.

Jiang Yuchuan knew that the glowing thing was not the ice pillars themselves, but the pool of cold spring lying quietly in the center of the cave, with a captivating, jewel-like blue color.

The shimmering light on the icicles is all reflected from this cold spring.

Jiang Yuchuan didn't care at all why the cold spring was glowing.

Reaching the edge of the cold spring, Jiang Yuchuan took out the storage bracelet he had obtained on Fangzhang Island, which had been passed down from Master Wuzang, and began to absorb the icy, bone-chilling spring water.

It's no wonder the Bai family didn't set up any traps here. Given the power of this icy spring, even top-tier experts with profound internal energy cultivation would find it difficult to resist its corrosive chill. Only grandmaster-level experts could freely access and even utilize this icy spring within this cave.

Since the Bai family discovered and claimed this cold spring, it seems that only the Bai family's grandmaster ancestor has ever entered it.

The internal energy cultivation method passed down from their ancestors by the Bai family seems to require the assistance of cold energy, which is probably why the Bai family chose to establish their entire clan in Polar City.

Although the spy's memories did not mention it, Jiang Yuchuan was almost certain that the Bai family patriarch was definitely using this cold spring to cultivate martial arts.

Since the Bai family wants to get rid of him, he naturally won't let them off easily.

As the saying goes, use their own methods against them.

Jiang Yuchuan had no interest in targeting the other members of the Bai family; if he were to deal with someone, it would be the most powerful ancestor.

Of course, he wouldn't just kill the other party directly; that would be too boring.

What he wanted to do was to use this cold spring to set a trap, so that the Bai family patriarch would make a mistake while cultivating with the spring, and even die suddenly.

As for how to do it, he had already thought it through from the very beginning.

Jiang Yuchuan did not absorb all of the cold spring water, leaving about two layers behind.

After putting away the storage bracelet filled with cold spring water, Jiang Yuchuan glanced around and slowly circulated his spiritual energy.

Soon, jets of water gathered from the top of the cave and poured into the nearly dried-up cold spring.

After the cold spring water was refilled, Jiang Yuchuan stopped circulating his spiritual power, opened his palm, and drew out a large mass of spiritual spring water from the spiritual pearl space.

The moment the ball of spiritual spring water, as large as a washbasin, appeared on Jiang Yuchuan's palm, it emitted a rich spiritual energy.

Jiang Yuchuan felt it wasn't thick enough, so he infused it with a trace of his own spiritual power.

Watching the sliver of green light swimming merrily in the water sphere like a fish, Jiang Yuchuan smiled with satisfaction, then flicked his wrist and tossed it into the cold spring.

The trap has been set; now, all that's left is to wait for the final result.

After exiting the ice cave, Jiang Yuchuan returned the large chunk of ice he had pushed aside to its original position before turning to leave.

His next task was to refine the Ice Soul Pill to make ample preparations for venturing deep into the magma underground.

Considering that he was going to refine an ice-attribute pill, Jiang Yuchuan did not go anywhere else. Instead, he carved out a cave on a tall snow-capped mountain in the distance and went inside.
