Luna Mountain Range snaked for a long time, and was covered in snow all year round. It was as if the highest point was to the horizon, and the lowest was like a bottomless abyss.

The rear mountains of the Yun Village lead straight to the Luna Mountain Range's lower valleys, which had always been the Yun Family's hunting grounds. Only in recent years, the number of wild beasts in the rear mountains had dwindled. Only by entering the dense forest area of the Luna Mountain Range could they find any traces of wild beasts.

Yun Yi walked along a small path covered with snow alone and reached an extremely dark cave at the back of the mountain. Looking around, he realized that no one was paying attention to him and quickly walked into the cave.

After entering the cave, he took out a fist-sized Moonstone, and the darkness was immediately dispersed by the light.

This cave was very deep and wide. It was said that it used to be the lair of a big python, after that big python was killed by the Yun Family people, this cave was always empty.

Three years ago, when Yun Yi discovered this cave, he had been running towards this place every day.

The light shone, Yun Yi was familiar with the route, so he quickened his pace. After they had advanced about eight hundred meters, they arrived in front of a pitch-black deep pool. Yun Yi decisively took off all of the Clothes s on his body and jumped into the pool.

"Hiss!"

Upon entering the pool, Yun Yi was trembling from head to toe, his teeth chattering.

The pool was not very deep and had just submerged his shoulders. However, the pool water was extremely cold. It was bone-chilling cold, as if a knife was cutting through it.

Yun Yi had been soaking in the pool for three years, but he still couldn't withstand the cold of the water.

Very quickly, he sat cross-legged and entered an ethereal state. Slowly, a wisp of fiery red light appeared at the location of his dantian.

The ghostly red light flashed like a cicada.

It was only the size of a thumb, with a pair of crystal clear wing s flapping gently. As Yun Yi circulated his inner strength, it also danced and spun inside the dantian, like a firework.

This thing was called "fire Gu", and Yun Yi only knew that it was called "fire Gu."

Back when Yun Yi entered the Third Sky of Refinement Realm, he had discovered that it was within his own dantian. He did not know what it was exactly because of its existence. Therefore, for the past three years, Yun Yi's strength had been in its original spot, and some of the clan members younger than him had even overtaken him.

Initially, he really hated this "fire Gu," and he wanted to inform Patriarch Grandpa of its existence. However, there was one time he encountered a vicious ice python in the middle of the cave. When he was about to die, the fire Gu had actually released a large amount of Spiritual Energy from the dantian and helped him kill the ice python.

Ever since that incident, he felt that the fire Gu's existence might not be a bad thing. On the contrary, it might even be a good thing.

And because of this, he didn't tell anyone about the fire Gu for the time being.

And just last month, the fire Gu that had been absorbing his Spiritual Energy suddenly became full, and stopped absorbing the Spiritual Energy. It seemed as if it had awoken from its slumber. It would occasionally hibernate, and from time to time, it would circle and dance about his dantian.

Initially, Yun Yi had judged from its external appearance that it was a bug, and it really did look like one. There were wing s, their bodies sparkling with a fiery red light.

But after some investigation, he realized that the fire Gu was actually not a Gu worm, but a piece of jade-like object. I don't know what makes it live, and it can dance.

But it was really only a piece of jade the size of a cicada, and not a Gu worm.

After the fire Gu no longer ate his Spiritual Energy, his cultivation speed returned to what it was before.

Three years ago, Yun Yi found out by chance that the cold spring water in the python's cave could help him cultivate faster. That was why he came here every day.

In these three years, if he wasn't cultivating inside the cold pond, perhaps with the fire Gu's appetite, it would have sucked all of his dantian dry and reduced him to body refining second level, or even body refining first level.

"Crack crack."

As Yun Yi cultivated, a layer of crystal clear Ice block quickly formed on the surface of his skin.

The cultivation technique he cultivated was called < Chinese kaleidospermum root >, it was a cultivation technique that specialized in the Cold Yin lineage. It was because he had been cultivating the Chinese kaleidospermum root all year round that he had a sickly look on his face.

It was not that he was truly ill, but this was something that would happen during the early stages of the [Chinese kaleidospermum root] cultivation. When one practiced this cultivation technique, a large amount of water vapor would evaporate out of the body. As time passed, the person would show signs of sickness.

In the entire Yun Family, only Yun Yi trained in this technique, he said that his father left this technique for him. As for who Yun Yi's parents are? Where is it now?

Patriarch Grandpa had never been willing to tell him about it.

"Break!"

Suddenly, Yun Yi opened his eyes and pushed his hands forward. Dozens of sharp ice cone s sprouted out of the cold spring water in the lake like bamboo shoots after a spring rain.

Taking a deep breath, Yun Yi slowly stopped cultivating and secretly checked on the movements of the dantian.

Sensing this state, a wry smile crossed his sickly face.

"It's been three years, and I'm finally going to break through my Body refining fourth level!"
