The Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire has disappeared.

Instead, there was a huge, bottomless pit.

The edges of the pit were jagged, as if some terrifying force had forcibly "dug" away a piece of it.

The bottom of the pit was pitch black, and a faint smell of sulfur and earth lingered in the air, proving that something had indeed once existed here.

But the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire itself—disappeared.

"this----???"

Jiang Bai suddenly stood up, quickly walked to the edge of the pit, and leaned down to look down.

It was bottomless, with only the cold wind blowing up from the bottom of the pit, carrying the stench of earth.

He looked around again. The valley was still the same valley, except that the most precious part in the middle had been completely dug out.

"Snow Emperor? Ice Emperor?" Jiang Bai called out subconsciously, his voice echoing through the valley.

no respond.

Jiang Bai's heart sank.

Did something happen while they were absorbing the immortal herb? Did something happen to the Snow Empress and the Ice Empress? Was the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire blown away?

Just as he was lost in thought, a clear and ethereal voice suddenly rang in his ears.

"We are now inside your martial spirit."

It's the Snow Emperor!

Jiang Bai was taken aback, then realized what was happening and quickly raised his right hand.

With a thought, a nine-story glazed pagoda, crystal clear and radiating nine-colored light, slowly appeared in the palm of his hand.

The tower is more exquisite and more sacred than before.

"Are you really in my tower?" Jiang Bai asked tentatively, his voice filled with disbelief.

"Indeed." This time it was Hyotei's voice, tinged with surprise and teasing. "I can even see your dragons!"

Jiang Bai was overjoyed. The significant improvement of all four dragon beasts was undoubtedly good news. However, he was more concerned about another issue.

"Then—what about the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire? And those immortal herbs?"

"They're all inside," Xue Di replied calmly. "The core area of ​​the entire valley, including the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well and most of the medicinal herbs, has been absorbed by your martial spirit. Now they're in this space, forming an independent area."

Jiang Bai opened his mouth, but for a moment he didn't know what to say.

The Nine-Treasure Glazed Pagoda—did it "swallow" the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire? Along with the spring water and immortal herbs inside?

What... what kind of operation is this?

"Can you come out?" Jiang Bai asked tentatively.

"Let's give it a try."

As soon as he finished speaking, two beams of light flew out from the Nine Treasures Glazed Pagoda and floated in front of Jiang Bai. The light subsided, revealing the figures of the Snow Emperor and the Ice Emperor.

As soon as they appeared, they both looked down at their feet. When they saw the huge, bottomless pit, even though they were mentally prepared, they couldn't help but show their shock again.

Hyotei put his hands on his hips and asked curiously.

"Hey kid, what kind of heaven-defying herbs did you eat? Evolving your martial soul through tribulation is one thing, but you even absorbed such a huge piece of land!"

Jiang Bai looked down at the Nine Treasures Glazed Pagoda in his palm, then looked up at the huge crater in front of him, his brain working at lightning speed.

The Qiluo Tulip evolved the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda into the Nine Treasures Pagoda, which could actually bring down a heavenly tribulation?

It can even directly move the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, a treasure trove of heaven and earth, into its own martial soul space —

This feels like a dream.

"I'm not quite sure either—" Jiang Bai spoke frankly, "The Qiluo Tulip is a celestial herb, perhaps its effects far exceed my expectations. As for why my martial soul has become like this—perhaps the mutation direction is rather unusual?"

Xue Di listened quietly, her icy blue eyes fixed on Jiang Bai, as if trying to discern something from his face. But Jiang Bai's bewilderment and shock seemed genuine.

"In any case, this is a good thing for you," Xue Di finally said. "That space is perfect for cultivation. Bing Di and I will live there for the time being. You can communicate with us telepathically whenever you need us."

Jiang Bai nodded, suppressing his overwhelming joy.

Jiang Bai's gaze passed over the pit and landed on the still unconscious figure at the foot of the distant mountain wall.

Jiang Bai thought for a moment, then took out paper and pen from his storage bracelet and quickly wrote a few lines.

Then he walked over to Dugu Bo and stuffed the note into his hand.

After doing all this, Jiang Bai returned to Xue Di and Bing Di's side and said.

"Making such a commotion here might attract the attention of other Soul Masters in Sunset Forest. To avoid unnecessary trouble, we need to leave as soon as possible."

Xue Di nodded: "That makes sense. Where to?"

Jiang Bai pondered for a moment.

Now that he has the treasure trove of the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, and the two trump cards of the Snow Emperor and the Ice Emperor, his resource and security issues in the short term have been resolved.

Next, we should focus on improving our own capabilities.

"Let's go to Silves City," Jiang Bai said.

Xue Di didn't ask any more questions. She reached out and grabbed Jiang Bai's arm, about to take him flying.

"wait"

Before Ice Emperor could speak, Snow Emperor had already transformed into a pale blue streak of light, soaring into the sky and disappearing instantly above the forest.

""

Hyotei stood there, stunned.

She stared in the direction where Xue Di and Jiang Bai had disappeared, her delicate face first blank, then gradually turning red, and finally stomping her feet in anger a few times in the air.

"Xue'er!!! You've forgotten me again!!!"

Hyotei gritted her teeth, her figure flashed, and she transformed into a streak of emerald light, chasing after the direction where Yuki had left.

Three figures, one in front and two behind, quickly disappeared into the horizon of Sunset Forest.

Shortly after they left.

Dugu Bo slowly woke up.

He touched his head and struggled to his feet.

I was knocked unconscious by that little girl's slap. Although I didn't suffer any fatal injuries, I was bound to get a concussion.

I have a headache and my whole body aches.

Three intruders—a green-haired little girl, a blue-haired woman, and a black-haired boy.

-

Dugu Bo remembered something.

He stumbled to the edge of the valley and froze when he saw the bottomless, enormous pit below.

"This—this is—"

He rubbed his eyes in disbelief.

What about the hot spring? What about the poison array he painstakingly set up over decades? What about those precious medicinal and poisonous herbs?

Everything is gone.

All that remained was a bare, gaping pit, as if a giant beast had gnawed at it.

Dugu Bo's face turned deathly pale instantly. He staggered back two steps, his chest heaving violently, and he almost spat out a mouthful of blood.

That was his life's work! His hope for curing his own deadly poison! And just like that—it's gone?

Just then, he suddenly felt something in his right hand. Looking down, he saw a folded piece of paper.

Dugu Bo opened the note with trembling hands; a few lines of text were written on it.

He glanced at it quickly, his expression shifting between light and dark.

After reading it, he clutched the note tightly.

After taking a few deep breaths, Dugu Bo flew back to Tiandou City.

Not long after, another black streak of light flew from the depths of the forest and landed on the mountaintop.

The light faded, revealing the figure of a withered old man.

He stared in disbelief at the bottomless pit in the valley below.

When did this huge pit appear in Sunset Forest?

Is it related to what happened earlier?

After observing for a few more moments, the withered old man flew away.
