Chapter 2637: Two Female Immortals by Blue Ice Lake
"Is it the Immortal Friend’s first time at Blue Ice Lake?"
That Immortal saw Great Sage Sun staring at the lake’s surface, looking excited and curious, and smiled as he asked.
Great Sage Sun nodded.
The Immortal "Hmm" sounded, starting to flaunt his "wealth of knowledge," and pointed to the large lake to explain to Great Sage Sun, "In this large lake exist Blue Ice Fish, and the Immortal Qi released by the Blue Ice Fish is exactly blue, therefore the lake water also became blue, hence its name ’Blue Ice Lake’..."
He chuckled, and continued, "Blue Ice Fish flesh is tender, not only delicious to eat but beneficial to Immortal cultivation. If the Immortal Friend is interested, perhaps wait for Blue Ice Fish to appear and catch a few to taste."
Great Sage Sun’s eyes shone brightly as he licked his lips and said, "Can it be eaten?"
Seeing the Immortal nod, he asked, "Then, when will Blue Ice Fish... appear?"
The Immortal pointed to the sky and said, "When the Golden Crow is at its fiercest, Blue Ice Fish will swim up from the thousand fathoms below to frolic. However... this only lasts around a hundred breaths, so you’ll need to seize the opportunity to act! But..."
He looked at the Immortals surrounding Blue Ice Lake and whispered, "Several Immortals around Blue Ice Lake are here for the Blue Ice Fish; if you want to grab Blue Ice Fish, you might face conflicts with them..."
Great Sage Sun glanced around, seeing Immortals surrounding Blue Ice Lake; several were Immortal Emperor Realm Experts, with the most powerful having high-rank Immortal Emperor Realm cultivation levels, two minor realms stronger than him.
However, Great Sage Sun, fearing neither Heaven nor Earth except his master Fang Bai, was not afraid of those Immortal Emperor Realm Experts, and waved his hand saying, "Why fear them? Whoever competes with me, I will strike with my iron staff, smashing their brains to smithereens!"
The Immortal thought he was boasting and chuckled, continuing, "Yet, today within Blue Ice Lake, there’s an anomaly, not knowing if treasures have appeared; those high-rank Immortal Emperor Realm experts likely focus on the unknown treasure and are too lazy to snatch Blue Ice Fish, so your chance is better... Immortal Friend, what are you looking at?"
That Immortal noticed Great Sage Sun’s attention seemed diverted, curious in his heart, and followed his gaze over.
To the left, several hundred feet away, stood a large and small female Immortal facing the lake, graceful and peerless in Immortal demeanor, and Great Sage Sun’s gaze fell upon them.
"The fellow won’t have his eye on those two Female Immortals, would he?"
Looking at the tall, fierce-looking Great Sage Sun and then at the two Female Immortals’ graceful personas and picturesque appearances, the Immortal couldn’t match them together and found it amusing.
The next moment, under the stunned gaze of the Immortal, Great Sage Sun strode over to the two Female Immortals.
"Just going over for a chat like that?"
Seeing Great Sage Sun drawing ever closer to the two Female Immortals, the Immortal shook his head with a smile, thinking he would embarrass himself by approaching.
The two Female Immortals sensed an Immortal approaching, turned their heads to see Great Sage Sun getting closer, initially frowning slightly, but within merely a few breaths, their beautiful eyes suddenly brightened, seemingly recognizing a familiar face while looking at Great Sage Sun.
"How... how could it be like this... Could those two Female Immortals have unique tastes and prefer such rugged men?"
The Immortal who had spoken with Great Sage Sun earlier found it unbelievable, seeing the two Female Immortals not only not rejecting Great Sage Sun but conversing easily with him using the Thread Condensation Sound Transmission Technique, as if the two sides had instantly gotten closer.
Other Immortals paying attention to the two Female Immortals were also wondering if the Female Immortals were blind, ignoring many handsome male Immortals around and why were they enjoying talking with a seemingly just acquainted rugged man.
Unfortunately, the two Female Immortals and the man were conversing using the Thread Condensation Sound Transmission Technique, otherwise, those male Immortals would have genuinely wished to listen to what they were saying.
Several dozen breaths later, as if a disturbance came from the bottom of Blue Ice Lake, the many surrounding Immortals perked up instantly, and focused their gaze on the lake’s surface.
Great Sage Sun and the two Female Immortals also stopped their sound-communication conversation, stood side by side, and looked into the lake.
"Splash!"
In the center of Blue Ice Lake, suddenly emerged hundreds and thousands of Blue Ice Fish, some even leaping high above the water surface.
Such a spectacle was unseen by surrounding Immortals.
The Blue Ice Fish in Blue Ice Lake, is said that consuming one equates to taking a lower-tier Immortal Emperor Level Immortal Pill, thus attracting many Immortal King Realm and Immortal Emperor Realm experts.
However, at this moment, the surrounding Immortals at Blue Ice Lake didn’t move to catch fish; their Divine Senses were probing deep into the lake water beyond the lake surface.
"It’s an Immortal Pill!"
An Immortal suddenly pointed at the lake surface, shouting loudly.
His shout hadn’t finished when a concentration of nearly unbreakable Immortal Qi wrapped around an Immortal Pill, rising quickly from the lake bottom, breaking through the water with a roar, rushing into the thousand-fathoms sky.
Before the Immortals reacted, a fat Taoist broke through the lake surface, chasing that Immortal Pill, shouting loudly, "Taoist Master won’t believe I can’t catch you!"
"That Immortal Pill... It’s an Emperor Elixir! It’s an Emperor Elixir!"
An excited high-rank Immortal Emperor Realm Expert captured the fleeing-swirling Immortal Pill in the void, expressing sheer joy, shouting uncontrollably.
What is called an Emperor Elixir is naturally an Immortal Emperor grade Immortal Pill.
Though Emperor Elixirs are "standard" during Immortal Emperor cultivation, for Immortal Emperor Realm experts present, an Emperor Elixir is nothing short of a supreme treasure, acquiring it would greatly enhance one’s strength.
Moreover, the Emperor Elixir could itself evade Immortal capture, showing its spiritedness, not an ordinary Emperor Elixir, likely refined by a Pill Master with top-tier Immortal Emperor prowess.
However, presently in the Immortal Realm, none of the eight top-tier Immortal Emperors are Pill Masters.
According to this inference, only the dazzling War Emperor who fell millennia ago had the ability to refine such an Immortal Pill.
This means the Emperor Elixir is likely a legacy Emperor Elixir from the days of the War Emperor left in the Immortal Realm.
An Emperor Elixir combined with the War Emperor suffices to drive all Immortal Emperor Realm Immortals mad.
They rushed up, chasing that Emperor Elixir at full speed.
"Old Taoist Wu!"
"Fat Taoist!"
As the fat Taoist emerged chasing the Emperor Elixir from the lake, recognizing him by figure, Great Sage Sun and the two Female Immortals almost simultaneously spoke up, and they followed the other Immortals flying forth.
However, their goal wasn’t to contest for the Immortal Pill with the fat Taoist, but rather to assist the fat Taoist in acquiring it.
Indeed, that fat Taoist is none other than Wu De, having split from Great Sage Sun earlier and tracked the treasure here.
Those two Female Immortals, one named Zhuge Lian, the other Xiao Ying, both are Fang Bai’s Immortal Lovers from the lower realm.
Fang Bai knew Zhuge Lian earlier, while Xiao Ying, a disciple under Fairy Xuanbing and sister of Qin Yaorao, became acquainted with Fang Bai later; she admired Fang Bai because of Qin Yaorao, initially married thanks to Qin Yaorao’s introduction.
