"A secret place?!"

Nan Shuishui's eyes narrowed slightly. "I wonder which secret place Your Majesty is referring to."

Anzhen said, "There is a secret place with an ice-attribute mineral vein."

Ice Extreme Crystal.

Mysterious Ice Marrow of Ten Thousand Years

These are all great treasures.

The air suddenly became still.

It wasn't until Nan Qiuqiu spoke up in confusion, "An Zhen, you must be mistaken, right? There are no ice-attribute mineral veins in our sect's secret areas."

“No.” Nan Shuishui shook her head, her eyes becoming wary as she looked at An Zhen. “Mr. An, may I ask where you learned this? Only the successive sect leaders of our Earth Dragon Sect know about this.”

“My mental strength is extremely powerful, among the best in the world.” An Zhen made up a reason on the spot. He couldn’t very well say that he saw it in the book “Douluo Dalu II: The Peerless Tang Sect”. “After entering Dragon City, I vaguely sensed a very terrifying ice attribute power. What’s underground is probably a mineral vein.”

"Sect Leader Nan should know something about me; I possess very powerful ice-attribute abilities."

Nan Shuishui nodded, her wariness lessening somewhat.

According to the intelligence report, the person in front of them was fighting Zhongli Wu with a very powerful ice-attribute ability.

Then he began to recount, “That is a cold well in the backyard of our sect. There is indeed a cave under the cold spring of that cold well. Our ancestor once smashed down a crystal with terrifying coldness, but the crystal had some metallic properties, so our ancestor believed that there was an ice attribute mineral vein in that cave.”

“I’ve been inside once,” Nan Shuishui said. “But even a Title Douluo could only stay for a short while. With such terrifying cold, the treasures inside must be extremely valuable to ice-attribute soul masters.”

An Zhen said, "Then Sect Leader Nan, please name your price."

Nan Shuishui smiled slightly, "Mr. An, why don't you tell me your offer?"

A faint smile flashed in An Zhen's eyes. "It seems that Sect Master Nan is planning to take advantage of me."

"It's business." Nan Shuishui shook her head slightly. "I suppose Mr. An has already been in contact with that old fox Ning Yunzhi of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School. Isn't that how business works?"

“Of course,” Nan Shuishui said sincerely. “After all, I will be working under you in the future, and I also want to make the most of this place that is about to become the site of a sect.”

“I’d like to take a look first,” Anzhen said.

"Of course," Nan Shuishui readily agreed. "This way, please."

The three of them arrived at the backyard of the Earth Dragon Gate and stopped by a well deep inside the backyard.

“This is it,” Nan Shuishui said, pointing to the well. “This cold spring has the ability to nourish the body of a Soul Master. Below this cold spring is the cave with the ice attribute mineral vein that I mentioned earlier, which was separated by a mechanism set up by our ancestors.”

Nan Shuishui explains how to open the mechanism.

Anzhen's spiritual power probed into the ground.

Ice spring.

Then there was the cave filled with icy divine crystals.

'Living metal.'

An Zhen's mental energy landed on several ice-blue ice crystals.

Continue down.

An extreme chill quietly seeped into An Zhen's soul.

"Sigh~"

An Zhen's true form shivered.

Absolute zero.

The temperature in that place, containing the millennia-old Xuanbing marrow, is already very close to absolute zero. Unless his spiritual power reaches the threshold of the Divine Origin Realm, he can forget about exploring it. But he's still one step away.

Nan Shuishui noticed An Zhen's unusual behavior. "Did you probe down with your spiritual power?"

"Ah."

"Truly brave." Nan Shuishui believed that An Zhen's mental strength was exceptionally powerful. She thought that An Zhen had entered a cave with ice-attribute mineral veins, after all, she herself dared not stay in that place for long, yet this guy dared to probe down with his mental strength.

Anzhen's consciousness probed into the virtual world.

The virtual world reflects the scene inside the Ten Thousand Year Ice Cave.

The cave covers an area of ​​less than ten square meters, with dozens of icicles crisscrossing and as white as jade, and it seems as if liquid is flowing inside.

There are forty-five in total.

An Zhen looked at Nan Shuishui and truthfully told her, "Sect Master Nan, besides the ice-attribute mineral vein in that cave, there are also some ice-attribute treasures under this spring. The temperature there is even lower, very close to the legendary absolute zero. Whether mining or using these treasures, one must be an ultimate ice soul master."

"There's something below the spring? Absolute zero!" Nan Shuishui exclaimed in surprise.

After a moment's thought, Nan Shuishui said, "I believe Mr. An."

After all, even a titled Douluo like her couldn't withstand the temperature in the cave for long; it was absolutely at the extreme of ice.

"Let me tell you my offer first," An Zhen said. "Two Immortal Grass Dragon Golden Melon plants, plus three 100,000-year-old soul bones from different parts, one of which must come from a Dragon Blood Soul Beast."

The soul bones don't require killing soul beasts; they're all sponsored by the Crimson King.

"Gudong~"

Nan Shuishui swallowed unconsciously. This...this is too much.

Leaving aside the legendary immortal herb, there was only one 100,000-year-old soul bone in their entire sect, passed down from their ancestors, which she absorbed.

An Zhen continued, "I can be very frank with Sect Master Nan. The things down here are more valuable than these, but there are only three Soul Masters on the entire continent, including myself, who possess the ultimate ice attribute. The other two are also Shrek Academy students, my people."

"But no matter how valuable something is, if it can't be used or circulated, it's worthless. Rather than occupying a treasure mountain that can't be mined, it's better to exchange it for the supplies you need."

An Zhen smiled and said, "What do you think of the Southern Sect's plan?"

“Very interested,” Nan Shuishui said without hesitation.

As An Zhen said, for the past thousand years, they have only used this ice spring water to soak their bodies. They have not developed this secret place at all. The metal ore brought out by their ancestor is also unusable and can only be kept as a collectible.

“But before a deal is struck,” Nan Shuishui said, “I’m a little curious about what exactly the treasure in this secret place that the sect has occupied for a thousand years is.”

Anzhen looked at the wellhead and said, "This is simple. I'll go down and start mining."

Reflection of the Ice Dragon King.

A chill no less intense than that of the Ten-Thousand-Year-Old Mystic Ice Cave quietly descended, and his dark eyes transformed into ice-blue vertical pupils. A layer of almost tangible ice-blue dragon scales covered An Zhen's entire body, and wings resembling those made of ten-thousand-year-old mystic ice unfolded behind him.

Considering that the Earth Dragon Sect's inherited martial soul is the Rouge Dragon, An Zhen deliberately concealed her aura to avoid frightening the group.

"This is……"

Nan Qiuqiu and her mother stared intently at An Zhen.

Yearning, longing, admiration, anticipation...

His gaze, brimming with emotion, seemed to be drawn out like silk threads.

The Crimson Dragon possesses the attribute of annihilation, belonging to a special dragon species, but ultimately it is only a sub-dragon. In the dragon race, where strength and bloodline reign supreme, a male true dragon king, after concealing his terrifying majesty and aura, is absolutely the mate that all female dragons below the dragon king dream of. If that male dragon king is in heat, his aura is absolutely fatally attractive to the young female dragons.

Anzhen entered the well.

Only when the icy spring water masked her aura did Nan Shuishui, a titled Douluo, finally react. Recalling the image that had subconsciously flashed through her mind, the middle-aged beauty blushed instantly.

But he was a Title Douluo after all; the first time was just an unexpected accident, something he hadn't been able to prevent.

Nan Shuishui suddenly thought of her daughter, her gaze falling on Nan Qiuqiu. The girl's face was flushed pink, her eyes overflowing with affection, and her smile was dreamy, as if she were imagining something wonderful. She nearly stumbled to the ground, her long, slender legs twisted so tightly they almost became pretzel.

"Nan Qiuqiu!" Nan Shuishui pinched her daughter's cheek. "Stop being so aroused, the person has already gone downstairs."

"Huh?" Nan Qiuqiu's consciousness broke free from the influence of the martial soul.

"mom?"

Nan Qiuqiu was stunned, and her mind instantly recalled what had just happened. Her cheeks flushed red. "Mom, what just happened?"

Shameful, so shameful.

If An Zhen had just turned her head, she would have been too embarrassed to face anyone.

No, An Zhen has strong mental power, she wouldn't have sensed it just now!

Ahhhhh!
"The influence of the Martial Soul," Nan Shuishui said.

The middle-aged woman looked at her daughter, who was in the prime of her youth, in her arms, and suddenly had an idea.

the other side.

Anzhen, now inside the well, transformed his arms into dragon claws, relentlessly digging and mining downwards. Any solid ice or frozen soil was like tofu to his frost dragon claws. The terrifying pressure posed no threat to his body; instead, it felt like a warm-up exercise.

"arrive."

The frost dragon claw slammed heavily onto the frozen ground before it, as if a dragon's roar echoed. The frozen ground cracked, revealing an ice cave beneath. Within this confined space, a terrifying chill that had accumulated for countless years instantly swept towards An Zhen. Even a Super Douluo would be frozen solid in An Zhen's place at this moment.

However, the terrifying chill, approaching absolute zero, struck the icy blue scales. An Zhen only felt a cool breeze, and the icy blue dragon scales glowed faintly, continuously absorbing the terrifying chill that was blowing.

"Work."

Anzhen began digging with her dragon claws.

As for why not use the power of corruption to simply empty this place outright.

Given the current scale of the virtual world, and with Yu Tong not by his side, An Zhen felt there was really no need to provoke the consciousness of Douluo Star without reason. He would take it slow, and if anything seemed amiss, he would use Flash to escape.

An Zhen carved out a separate small space in the stomach of the virtual world to store these millennia-old Xuanbing marrow. In this enclosed space, there was no need to worry about their energy loss.

They successfully excavated the Ten-Thousand-Year-Old Mysterious Ice Marrow.

An Zhen returned to the cave above and used her ultimate ice soul power to mine the ice divine crystals, emptying the entire vein and separating those with life force from those without. The former were already usable for crafting low-level divine artifacts.

Anzhen returned home with a great harvest.

Nan Qiuqiu and her daughter were still waiting by the well.

An Zhen, with her hands transformed into frost dragon claws, held up a small piece of ten-thousand-year-old Xuanbing Marrow and showed it to the mother and daughter, saying, "This is the ice-attribute treasure beneath that spring."

"A terrifying chill." Nan Shuishui used her soul power to resist the chill while pinching her daughter's acupoints.

Nan Shuishui, who couldn't tell anything from it, asked An Zhen to put it away, as the temperature was terrifying.

"An Zhen." Nan Shui Shui looked at the boy in front of her, becoming more and more satisfied. "Regarding what just happened, I have another plan."
