After completing the signing of the spirit beast contract, Ancestor Jiang on the side fell on Shanshan, sizing up this green girl who looked about sixteen or seventeen years old and was dressed in colorful clothes.
Originally, when she passed through the Snowy Plateau and discovered the Snowy Spiritual Vein, she had seen the Shanyan Demon King, but she had not met him face to face.
At that time, Shanshan was still sleeping in the ice lake, and Ancestor Jiang had no intention of occupying the spiritual veins, so Shanshan was not disturbed.
The Shanshan she detected at that time was the original form of the Shanyan Demon, but she had never seen what she looked like in human form.
Now, seeing Shanshan's girlish appearance, Old Ancestor Jiang suddenly became interested.
"This little girl is the Shanyan Demon King."
Ancestor Jiang was slightly surprised.
She has seen several golden elixir-shaped monsters, either enchanting and gorgeous in appearance, or majestic and cold in appearance. They all look to be at least twenty years old.
How could she be like Shanshan, who transformed into a green girl and looked easy to bully, just like the girl next door in the mortal world.
"Hello, sister."
Shanshan looked very lively. Seeing that Ancestor Jiang was attracted to her, she immediately caught Ancestor Jiang's gaze and greeted with a smile: "Sister, you are so beautiful, like a fairy in the sky, so beautiful!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Shanshan looked around Ancestor Jiang like a butterfly surrounding a flower.
Seeing Shanshan's reaction, Jiang Patriarch's beautiful face showed a smile, and he stood with a smile for a while before saying.
"The little girl has such a sweet mouth."
When they first met, she developed a crush on Shanshan.
"Hehe, I'm telling the truth!"
Shanshan laughed twice, with a serious look on her face, "I wish I had a sister as beautiful as me!"
The two girls, one young and one young, chatted for a few words and got to know each other.
In the following time, Lu Ping asked Patriarch Jiang for advice on how to arrange formations.
The formation he obtained from Ancestor Jiang this time was a set of fourth-level mid-grade Heaven and Earth Cold Water Formation.
This array is a water-attribute array, so it can be used to draw local materials, absorb the water-attribute aura from the snowy spiritual veins, lay out a large array, and maintain the operation of the array to bring out the best effect of the array.
"For you, it may be a little difficult to set up the Heaven and Earth Cold Water Formation. Why don't I go with you and lay out the formation for you myself."
After a few years, she also wanted to take a look at that spiritual vein.
"This is perfect."
On that day, Ancestor Jiang followed Lu Ping and Shanshan to the Snowy Plateau and landed in the sky above the Snowy Spiritual Veins.
Looking around, this spiritual vein is covered with ice and snow, covered in silver and white, it is a grand world of ice and snow.
Above the spiritual veins, several colorful light spots can be vaguely seen.
These light spots, under the refraction of the eyes, are extremely eye-catching against the backdrop of ice and snow.
These are those Shanyan monsters.
According to Lu Ping's instructions, Shanshan ordered them to guard this spiritual vein, so many Shanyan demons were emerging, no longer lurking under the ice sheet or among the corals, and they all showed their physical traces.
At this time, seeing Shanshan, Lu Ping and Ancestor Jiang arriving, many Shanyan demons looked up and cheered with joy to welcome Shanshan.
Shanshan accompanied Lu Ping and was not the first to set foot on the spiritual veins.
She uttered her own language, "yeah, yeah, yea, yea, yea, yea, yea, yea, yea, yea, yea, yea, yea, yea, yea, yea out."
Apart from those eye-catching Shanyan monsters, the most eye-catching thing in this spiritual vein is the huge ice lake.
This ice lake is also the only lake above the spiritual veins, and is the habitat of the Shanyan Demon King.
"Leave the formation to me."
Ancestor Jiang explored the surrounding environment and quickly got busy, arranging formations for Lu Ping.
With Ancestor Jiang taking action, it only took about a stick of incense for the Heaven and Earth Cold Water Formation to be completed.
In order to ensure that the spiritual energy of water and ice in the spiritual veins is abundant and pure, Ancestor Jiang did not change the environment of the spiritual veins and kept them as they were, with pure white ice and snow at a glance.
When they set foot here, they felt as if they were in a world of ice and snow.
This makes it almost impossible to see any vegetation here, with only a handful of cold-resistant plants growing solitary, which looks a bit desolate.
As for how to use this spiritual vein properly, Ancestor Jiang did not ask. He knew that Lu Ping had his own plans, so he did not ask any more questions.
After setting up the formation, Ancestor Jiang did not wait long. After informing Lu Ping, he set off back to Jiuhan Mountain.
"Master, why did Sister Jiang leave now?"
Watching Ancestor Jiang disappear like a giant, Shanshan let out a grunt.
Lu Ping stood in the air, floating above the ice lake, and glanced at Shanshan from the corner of his eye.
"How about you come along?"
"Ah?" Shanshan heard this and subconsciously wanted to say hello, but then she quickly reacted and stuck out her tongue.
"No, no, no, I'm not going."
Her voice was very low, as if she was talking to herself.
This has become Lu Ping's spiritual pet, so naturally there is no reason to leave Lu Ping and follow others.
"This will talk about the situation at the bottom of the lake."
Lu Ping didn't pay much attention to Shanshan's comments. He explored the ice lake with his consciousness and discovered something strange.
In the bottom of the lake, there is an area that shields the expression, which is very strange.
This aroused his curiosity.
"By the way, I almost forgot to tell you."
Like a butterfly fairy, Shanshan moved gracefully to the surface of the ice lake, reflecting her petite and exquisite figure.
"Have you noticed... that there is a place at the bottom of the lake that cannot be explored with spiritual consciousness?"
She asked with a smile on her face.
"Um."
Lu Ping nodded.
"Your insight is quite powerful."
Shanshan smiled lightly and waved to Lu Ping, gesturing for Lu Ping to follow her.
"Master, follow me, I will take you to see what's going on."
Following Shanshan's footsteps, Lu Ping dived into the ice lake.
The water is bone-chillingly cold and there are few traces of life.
Under the protection of his own magic power, Lu Ping formed a transparent magic barrier to isolate the surrounding lake water. As Lu Ping went deeper and deeper into the bottom of the lake, the surrounding light became dim.
Such changes in light have no impact on either Shanshan or Lu Ping. With their cultivation, they can see the scene in the dark clearly.
"That's it."
Arriving at the bottom of the lake first, Shanshan landed in a huge coral group and pointed to a light blue coral in front of her.
Lu Ping's eyes moved.
The coral in front of me is about the size of a person and has an irregular shape. It doesn't look much different from the surrounding corals, and it itself is inconspicuous.
