Chapter 43: The Cold Air Is Expelled
Chu Yang restored the stone block to its original state and walked out of the Azure Jade Gate. Inside the stone chamber, the chilling air had already filled the space again, looking as it did before.
However, Chu Yang knew that things were different this time. Although it was still a place of seven yin convergence, the spiritual energy of the Nine Calamity Sword was no longer present!
In places of seven yin convergence, there must be extremely cold treasures buried underground. This was a secret that Chu Yang only learned after reaching the higher realms in his previous life.
Having already obtained the Nine Calamity Sword, he had surpassed all his previous gains, so he had no desire for the treasures that caused the seven yin convergence.
Let’s just reserve this bit of vital energy for Sky Tower.
But with this one intake, the cold air he absorbed was almost a composite of decades’ worth of cold from this place! Although it was absorbed by the Nine Calamity Sword, Chu Yang could use it freely, just as if he were using his own skills.
This is the unique benefit of being the nine calamity sword master!
Of course, if one day Sky Tower were to be destroyed, then no matter what, Chu Yang would have to come and take that unknown treasure that caused the seven yin convergence, he would never let it fall into someone else's hands!
When he stepped outside, he couldn’t help but be taken aback.
Meng Chaoran was still standing there with an indifferent expression, but... why had the sect master turned into a masked figure? Moreover, he was wrapped up so tightly that only a pair of eyes were visible. Uh, it seemed that those eyes were also a bit smaller, just a narrow slit...
As soon as Chu Yang appeared, both Meng Chaoran and Wu Yunliang looked over at him. In that moment, they both felt a strange sensation: Chu Yang at this moment was definitely different from before he entered. But what exactly was different, they couldn’t say. It felt like a very elusive sensation...
At the same time, Wu Yunliang also sensed Chu Yang curiously sizing her up, causing her face to heat up.
“How is it?” the two asked simultaneously, in unison.
Chu Yang had been inside for a full three hours. The two were already astonished!
Typically, the longest any disciple from previous generations could last in the seven yin convergence was less than half an hour; otherwise, they would be frozen to death by the extreme cold!
When they came out, they would be trembling all over, with frost on their bodies and faces, looking like they were on the verge of death.
Yet here was Chu Yang, who had actually been in there for three hours and emerged so nonchalantly!
Both of them looked at Chu Yang, feeling as if they were seeing a ghost.
Seeing that both his master and uncle were staring at him with such intense gazes, and their expressions not changing at all, Chu Yang couldn’t help but instinctively touch his face. If there were a mirror here, his first reaction would be to look in it to see if a flower had grown on his face.
Those gazes were too strange.
He naturally didn’t know the typical reaction of someone entering the seven yin convergence for the first time...
“What’s wrong?”
“Are you okay?” the two asked again in unison.
“I’m fine.” Chu Yang was even more confused.
The two exchanged glances, and Chu Yang clearly saw Wu Yunliang’s eyes, which had become narrow slits, suddenly widen!
“Ahem... what your master uncle means is… how did your seven yin divine annihilation palm go?” Meng Chaoran coughed a few times and asked solemnly.
“I haven’t checked. But I feel like I absorbed quite a bit of cold air.” Chu Yang replied in a daze, “Let me try.”
Wu Yunliang and Meng Chaoran were left speechless: what on earth did you go in there for?...
Chu Yang circulated his vital energy, deliberately activating the cold air that was now stored in his dantian from the Nine Calamity Sword. Instantly, the stone chamber filled with a chilling aura, as if it were the middle of winter. His outstretched right hand suddenly turned silver-white.
