Nine Revolutions Star Technique

”This is...”

As he stepped out of the mist, Ye Qingchen’s eyes brightened.

Before him appeared a serene little island. Contrary to his expectations of Immortal Mountain pavilions, the island only had a simple grass hut, covered by a thick layer of dust.

Clearly, it had long been abandoned, and it was unknown how long it had been left deserted.

”I suppose this place must have been a cultivation site for an Earth Immortal!”

Ye Qingchen sighed softly.

”Wait a minute!”

”If this place is an ownerless land, then how am I going to leave? Am I going to be trapped in Ice Crystal Lake for the rest of my life?”

Ye Qingchen’s expression suddenly turned a little grim.

He initially thought that upon discovering Little Ying Continent, he would find an Earth Immortal residing there, thus finding a way out. However, discovering that Little Ying Continent had been abandoned for an unknown duration left him dispirited.

”Right!”

Gazing at the uninhabited grass hut, Ye Qingchen’s eyes suddenly lit up.

”Since this place was once used as a cultivation site, it wouldn’t be like others blindly stumbling about every time they enter and exit. Perhaps there’s a passageway!”

With this thought in mind,

Ye Qingchen folded his hands behind his back, releasing his divine sense and began searching inch by inch.

In doing so, he indeed found many valuable items.

”Extreme Cold Water! A Spirit Liquid formed in the extremely cold and yin places. It’s extremely beneficial for cultivators with ice-based True Qi, and it can also be used to refine pills, enhancing their potency!”

”Profound Ice Grass, growing in extremely cold places, is an even better catalytic Spirit Grass than Celestial Fragrance Fruit. It can help refine the soul and temper a Ghost God Body!”

”The Earth Immortal who once lived here was at least at the same level as the one from the Earth Immortal Tomb, perhaps even more terrifying!”

Ye Qingchen nodded to himself.

The Spirit Grass and herbs within Little Ying Continent were few in number, but they were all sacred items for alchemy, extremely rare.

Although not enough to solely start a large furnace of medicine, with these things, the effectiveness of the pills refined would be increased by at least thirty percent, possibly even more!

However.

These were not what Ye Qingchen was seeking. He swiftly expanded his divine sense to envelop the entire Little Ying Continent. The whole area was barely a hundred yards, a trivial task for Ye Qingchen.

Just as he was about to finish his search, his body suddenly paused, and his eyes flickered:

”Is that... array fluctuations?”

Ye Qingchen waved his hand, releasing a powerful force that swept across.

The rolling Qi Force surged like a raging dragon, carving a deep mark on the ground as it plowed forward. Suddenly, it crashed into a piece of bluestone, and with a ’boom’ the force exploded, shattering the moss on the stone into powder, with numerous rock fragments scattering like rain, revealing its original form.

It was a white marble stone, covered with dense, tadpole-like runes. Upon closer inspection, it seemed there was golden light flowing within.

”Found it!”

Upon seeing the white marble stone, Ye Qingchen’s eyes gleamed.

”This is the core of the entire Little Ying Continent, even the whole Ice Crystal Lake!”

”Once I refine it, I can leave!”

”I might even be able to control the entire Ice Crystal Lake!”

A joyful smile appeared on Ye Qingchen’s face.

With this thought in mind,

he could no longer hold back and decided to take immediate action.

Swoosh!

Clenching his right hand, he shot out a green light. The marble stone trembled violently, with numerous runes suddenly coming to life, swirling around the stone.

These runes were carved by the previous Earth Immortal, each one engraved with the cultivation of a top-level Earth Immortal, containing enormous and terrifying power!

Even.

The vast cold tide outside Little Ying Continent couldn’t compare to it and was even more dangerous. Any mistake would cause the power within the runes to explode through the body, resulting in instant destruction!

Even gods would struggle to save one in such a situation!

And this kind of refining,

for Ye Qingchen, was also a form of intensive training.

His Cultivation Realm advanced rapidly, progressing swiftly towards the Human Immortal Ninth Layer!

One day! Two days! Three days!

...

Time slowly passed.

Unknowingly.

At this moment.

It had already been forty-nine days since Ye Qingchen entered Little Ying Continent!

After sitting in meditation for a long time, suddenly, Ye Qingchen’s body trembled. A white light appeared on the marble stone before him, quietly covering about one-tenth of the stone.

When this white light completely envelops the marble stone, it would signify that Ye Qingchen can fully control the entire Ice Crystal Lake.

”Phew!”

After a moment, Ye Qingchen exhaled a long breath, opening his eyes.

”With my current power, I can only refine about ten percent of this array, but that’s already enough!”

Ye Qingchen nodded to himself.

Refining ten percent was enough for him to access and control the entrance to the array, allowing easy entry and exit. If he completely refined the array, the whole Ice Crystal Lake would become his abode.

With just a thought, he could control the freezing tides of the entire Ice Crystal Lake, rendering even Earth Immortals helpless to leave!

Not to mention, similar to Luo Yunfei’s earlier forced manipulation of the Ice Crystal Lake tides!

”Let’s find the exit first!”

Rising slowly,

Ye Qingchen gently placed his hand on the marble stone.

Swish!

An invisible ripple emanated from the center of Little Ying Continent, spreading like a vast intertwined net or a surging tide in all directions.

It swept over numerous star-studded islands, brushed over expanses of calm and turbulent waters, encompassing the entire Ice Crystal Lake almost in an instant.

Rumble!

In a flash.

Countless chaotic pieces of information, like a swirling tide, flooded in madly. If it were an ordinary person, their mind would have exploded from the overwhelming influx in an instant.

Even though Ye Qingchen was prepared, in the face of this vast information, he remained dazed for half a stick of incense’s time before coming back to his senses.

Meanwhile,

everything within the thousands of miles of the Ice Crystal Lake’s range appeared in his mind, leaving no secrets!

At this moment, Ye Qingchen saw the beasts lurking beneath the waters; he saw the corpses frozen to death on the star-studded islands; he saw the Heavenly and Earthly Treasures guarded by the beasts; he saw several figures prowling and wandering outside the Ice Crystal Lake...

”Hmm?”

”Isn’t that Tang Mei’er? Why is she still outside the Ice Crystal Lake? What’s going on? It seems someone is chasing her?”

Ye Qingchen squinted his eyes, extending his divine sense. When he saw what was happening ahead, he couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow.

But soon after,

A seething murderous intent surged in his eyes!
