The Five Elders Peak was filled with gloomy clouds.

Below Old Snow Peak, three dense black mist clouds fought against three xiuzhe. A black monster was waving its tens of meters long tentacles in pursuit of a golden giant sculpture. On the back of the giant sculpture stood a blue-robed youth with a high spirited expression and eyebrows that resembled a pair of blades.

The young man stood upright on the back of the sculpture with his thin lips curled into a cold line. No matter what the sculpture did, he could still stand firmly. Under the blue-robed youth's command, a thick-backed sword flashed with lightning slashed fiercely onto the tentacle troll's body. The ground was covered in green juice from the tentacle troll's body, and there was also a tentacle that had been cut off. The giant monster waved its tens of meters long tentacles in an attempt to restrain the blue-robed youth into dust. However, the golden giant eagle divine steed was extremely fast and could always dodge the attack of the tentacles.

It was just a few cups of tea and there were dozens of broken tentacles on the ground. The black troll seemed to be afraid of being killed. The tentacles passively protected its vital parts, occasionally counterattacking once or twice.

"Ya!" A miserable scream rang out. The female cultivator who was fighting a ball of ghost mist suddenly screamed and flew out. Her left shoulder was dripping with blood, but it was forcefully torn off.

The ghost mist squeaked as it pounced towards the female cultivator. The blue-robed youth on the back of the statue waved his sword and shouted, "Explode!"

Chi! A ball of lightning that carried a strong aura of lightning struck the ghost mist instantly. Rumble! The power of lightning instantly shattered the ghost mist, turning it into an ugly ghost with red hair and a hooked nose.

The severed-armed female cultivator endured the intense pain and waved her sword finger. The flying sword buzzed and pierced through the ghost.

"Ga!" The ghost let out a miserable scream, revealing its mouth full of disgusting black teeth. Its body instantly mist, and finally a ghost tooth stone fell.

The female cultivator gasped for breath with lingering fear, but two more ghost mist appeared around her. Just as the female cultivator was feeling extremely desperate, a loud crane cry suddenly came from the sky. Two ice arrows shot towards her from above.

"Senior Sister Huang Bing!" The female cultivator shouted in surprise.

At this moment, Phoenix Ice's large white bird had already flown into the sky above the battlefield. With a somersault, it jumped down from a height of several dozen meters. With a flash of cold light, an ice sword appeared in its hand. Countless ice blades scattered like flying snow, instantly killing a ghost and landing lightly on the ground.

The blue-robed youth on the golden sculpture's eyes couldn't help but light up. He laughed and said, "Miss Huang Bing, long time no see!"

"Big Senior Brother!" When Shen Xiaobao saw the blue-robed youth on the golden eagle's back from afar, he immediately shouted excitedly.

The blue-robed youth was stunned for a moment, and then he laughed heartily, "Little Treasure, you monkey fellow also came to join in the fun!" After he finished speaking, the golden eagle immediately dived towards the tentacle monster. Two streaks of lightning shot out from its sharp eyes, and the meat slurry on the tentacle monster's body exploded.

"Explode!" The blue-robed youth shouted wildly and unexpectedly sent out five lightning explosive spells in a row!

Rumble rumble rumble rumble

The tentacle troll's body was instantly blasted into countless holes and sore. It shrunk into a ball with a strange cry. The ferocious golden-winged eagle took the opportunity to pounce on it. The giant claw grabbed onto the tentacle troll, and with a forceful flap of its wings, it actually dragged the small hill-sized tentacle troll off the ground.

Chu Jun looked at the blue-robed youth on the giant eagle's back and couldn't help but secretly cheer, "What a mighty man!"

"Chu Jun, this is Eldest Senior Brother Shangguan Yu!" Ning Yun said with a pleasantly surprised expression.

The giant eagle grabbed the tentacle troll and barely managed to fly to a height of nearly two hundred meters. Just as it was about to release its claws and throw the meat ball down, the tentacle troll was not stupid either. Its originally curled tentacles suddenly stretched out crazily and wrapped around the giant eagle's body. The tentacle troll's insidious move could be said to be unparalleled. The giant eagle was entangled and immediately used its ability to fly, screaming as it fell downwards.

"Ah!" Both Shen Xiaobao and Ning Yun cried out in shock.

Shangguan Yu waved his flying sword and slashed wildly. However, there were too many tentacles of the giant tentacles. He slashed one side and wrapped them around the other side. Chu Jun drove the grey crane over and slashed out with his long sword, aiming straight for the chrysanthemum-shaped area beneath the giant tentacle's lower abdomen.

Pu!

The flying sword stabbed in!

Zi!

The tentacle troll let out a shrill scream that could pierce through a person's eardrums. The tentacles wrapped around the giant eagle suddenly loosened and danced crazily. The arcs on its body flickered and jumped.

When Chu Jun saw that the attack was effective, he waved his sword finger and recalled the flying sword!

Boom!

The huge mountain of meat fell to the ground, instantly shattering into pieces. The internal organs scattered everywhere, causing the scene to be spectacular and disgusting.

The blue-robed youth glanced at the tentacle monster that was shattered to pieces on the ground. He raised his head and looked at Chu Jun with bright eyes. He laughed loudly and said, "Fellow Daoist, this sword stabbed beautifully. So that place is its door!"

Chu Jun secretly said, "I look like I have more anuses!"

"Big Senior Brother!" At this moment, Shen Xiaobao and Ning Yun also drove their mounts to surround them.

The golden-winged eagle warned, causing Chu Jun and the others' mounts to tremble and not dare to approach. The Golden-winged Condor was a Second Grade high-tier spirit beast with a violent personality. It was unknown how Shangguan Yu had subdued it.

"Let's talk when we get down!" The blue-robed youth put away the golden eagle and landed on the ground.

At this time, several ghosts had already been killed by Huang Bing and the other disciples of the Tenghuang Pavilion.

"Shangguan Yu, are you willing to come back?" As soon as everyone landed, Ning Yun cursed.

Shangguan Yu smiled and said, "This time, I'm really close to death. It's not bad to be able to come back alive!"

"Junior Sister Yun is talking about Big Senior Brother all day long!" Shen Xiaobao said.

Ning Yun's cheeks flushed red as he curled his lips and said, "Who said anything about him?" As he spoke, he stole a glance at Chu Jun.

Shangguan Yu's gaze fell on Chu Jun. He cupped his fists and said, "Thank you very much, Fellow Daoist, for your help just now. It's just that your eyes seem to be very bright. I wonder which sect's rising star is it?"

Ning Yun chuckled and said, "Guess!"

Shangguan Yu's eyes revealed a trace of doubt as he said, "Could it be a disciple of our sect?"

Chu Jun smiled and said, "Chu Jun pays his respects to Eldest Senior Brother!"

Shangguan Yu's eyes flashed with disbelief as he looked at Chu Jun. He knew all the inner disciples of the Heaven Sect, but he had never seen Chu Jun before.

Shen Xiaobao chuckled and said, "Are you shocked? This guy Chu Jun has only just entered the sect for a year. He is even more abnormal than you were back then!"

Shangguan Yu was stunned for a moment, then laughed loudly and said, "Indeed, I am very shocked. I only entered the sect one year ago and cultivated the Five Thunder Heavenly Arts to the early stage of Spirit Condensation. It seems that I am going to produce a genius who is astonishingly talented and gorgeous!"

Chu Jun couldn't help but sweat. He humbly smiled and said, "Big Senior Apprentice Brother praised me!"

At this moment, Huang Bing brought a few disciples of the Tenghuang Pavilion over. As her cold gaze swept past Chu Jun, a trace of undetectable astonishment flashed across her face. Huang Bing still recognized Chu Jun. Back on this old snow peak, this fellow almost swallowed the ice crystal snow clam that he had only lured out with the Fragrant Snow Lotus. He remembered that his cultivation was only at the early stage of Spirit Condensation, but now it was at the early stage of Spirit Condensation. The speed at which his cultivation had progressed was truly shocking.

"Shangguan Yu, thank you for your help!" Huang Bing said indifferently. Her voice was as ethereal as ice and snow.

Shangguan Yu smiled heartily, "It's just a matter of raising your hand, it's not worth mentioning!"

"That's right, it's just a simple move!" Shen Xiaobao replied hurriedly.

Ning Yun curled his lips and said, "Shen Xiaobao, you seem to have been watching the show all this time. You haven't raised your hand or feet!"

Shen Xiaobao's skinny face immediately turned red, "Junior Sister Yun, can you stop arguing with Young Master!"

"Pu!" The female disciples of the Tenghuang Pavilion behind Huang Bing couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Shen Xiaobao was extremely embarrassed. He changed the topic and said, "Strange. Didn't the last Ghost Hunt clean up the ghosts? Why is there still such a tentacle monster here?"

Shangguan Yu's expression became serious as he nodded and said, "The day before yesterday, when I passed by, I realized that the atmosphere was not right, so I observed here for two days and discovered that those ghosts had emerged from the cold pond at the peak of Old Snow Peak!"

"Is it that cold pond at the top of the mountain?" Chu Jun couldn't help but blurt out.

Everyone's gaze couldn't help but fall on Chu Jun's face, and Huang Bing's pair of ice and snow ethereal eyes revealed a trace of doubt.

"Chu Jun, why are you so excited?" Ning Yun said with wide eyes.

"Nothing much. I saw that cold pond last time!" Chu Jun couldn't help but glance at Huang Bing as he spoke.

The last time Huang Bing took away a toad, he found an Ice Phoenix Sword at the bottom of the pond. Thinking of this, Chu Jun couldn't help but be shocked. He remembered that when he pulled out the Ice Phoenix Sword, a cold evil energy rushed into his body. Could it be that those ghosts were able to escape because he pulled out the Ice Phoenix Sword?

"So what?" Seeing that Chu Jun's expression had actually changed, Ning Yun couldn't help but roll his eyes.

Shangguan Yuruo looked at Chu Jun meaningfully and asked, "Chu Jun, did you see anything?"

"Let's go and take a look at the top of the mountain!" Chu Jun turned around and ran towards the peak of Old Snow Peak.

"Ah, Chu Jun, what are you doing!" Ning Yun hurriedly chased after him.

Huang Bing'e raised her eyebrows and said indifferently, "Go take a look!"

Several female disciples of the Tenghuang Pavilion followed Huang Bing to the top of the mountain!

"Big Senior Apprentice Brother, let's go and see what kind of medicine that brat Chu Jun sells in his gourd!" Shen Xiaobao said as he ran towards the top of the mountain.

Shangguan Yu looked at Ning Yun, who was chasing after Chu Jun. A trace of disappointment flashed through his eyes, but he quickly shook his head with a smile. "It seems that Little Yun Zi has grown up and is no longer clinging to my senior apprentice-brother. Did Chu Jun really take only a year to reach Spirit Condensation?"

The Old Snow Peak was still covered with ice. The original location of the frost pool was already frozen, no longer rippling with green waves.

"Strange, this cold pond actually froze. When I came last time, it was still rippling with green waves. It's so beautiful!" Ning Yun asked curiously.

Chu Jun already knew. It seemed that he had indeed pulled out the Ice Phoenix Sword to cause trouble. Those ghosts were probably stolen from the bottom of the frost pond, and they had all escaped now.

Huang Bing stared coldly at Chu Jun, as if she had seen through something. Chu Jun was secretly frightened and thought to himself, "Could it be that she also discovered the sword at the bottom of the pond?"

At this moment, a dense cloud of black gas suddenly emerged from the surface of the ice. The black gas condensed happily, and a gloomy wind instantly rose in all directions.

Zheng …!

Everyone took out their magic treasures at almost the same time and slashed towards the ball of ghost energy!

"Ga, despicable cultivator!" The ghost aura let out a shrill cry and quickly disappeared into the ice.

Shen Xiaobao laughed proudly and said, "This unlucky ghost was beaten back by us before he even appeared!"

Chu Jun frowned and said, "I'm afraid there are a large number of ghosts sealed beneath this cold lake!"

Ning Yun asked curiously, "Chu Jun, how did you know?"

Feeling the gazes of everyone looking towards him, Chu Jun hesitated for a moment. In the end, he still felt that he should not say it out loud. He could insert the Ice Phoenix Sword back into the bottom of the pond sometime, so that outsiders wouldn't know that he coveted the sword.

"I guessed!" Chu Jun prevaricated.

Shangguan Yu nodded and said, "I also agree with Chu Jun's guess!"

"But if these ghosts are sealed under the cold pool, how can they escape?" A female disciple of the Tenghuang Pavilion looked at Shangguan Yu shyly.

Without waiting for Shangguan Yu to reply, Huang Bing said indifferently, "Perhaps someone can't break the seal in the frost pool, so these ghosts escaped. The frost pool water was originally not frozen, but now it froze. It must be the result of the seal being damaged!"

As Huang Bing spoke, Ice Snow's ethereal gaze had been staring at Chu Jun, wanting to see some clues from his expression. Unfortunately, Chu Jun had always been as calm as an ancient well.

"Miss Huang Bing is right. Report this matter to the Sect Leader when we return!" Shangguan Yu said solemnly.

"Chu Jun, excuse me!" Huang Bing suddenly said indifferently as she turned around and walked into the distance.

Everyone couldn't help but be stunned. Shangguan Yu looked at Chu Jun in surprise and secretly said, "Looks like my junior brother is not simple. He actually seems to be familiar with Huang Bing!"

However, Shen Xiaobao was dumbfounded, and his heart was dripping with blood. "Chu Jun is too happy. Huang Bing actually took the initiative to ask him to speak. Why don't I have such good fortune?"

Ning Yun stared at Chu Jun with an expression of bitter enmity. He felt very uncomfortable in his heart, "Damn Chu Jun, when did you hook up with Huang Bing? I have to tell Senior Sister Zhao Yu about this!"

Facing the gaze of the crowd, Chu Jun forcefully followed. The disciples of the Soaring Phoenix Pavilion looked at each other. One had to know that Senior Sister Huang Bing treated everyone coldly. She had never faked her words. It was as if there was nothing else she was interested in other than cultivation. How could she suddenly look at Chu Jun differently and even ask him to talk in private?

"Miss Huang Bing, if you have anything to say, just say it!" Chu Jun stood behind Huang Bing.

Huang Bing turned around and looked at Chu Jun calmly. Her exquisite face, which was like a goddess of ice and snow, was no less beautiful than Zhao Yu's. Perhaps Chu Jun had faced Zhao Yu more often, but now his calmness had increased by a lot. He was also calm when facing this suffocatingly beautiful ice and snow girl.

Huang Bing was a little surprised. She understood her advantage in appearance. Many older men would stand in front of her with a bit of restraint.

"No wonder Zhao Yu has taken a fancy to this person. Not only has his cultivation progressed astonishingly, his calmness is also comparable to others!" Huang Bing secretly gave Chu Jun an evaluation.

"Did you take something from the cold pond?" Huang Bing asked in astonishment.

Chu Jun's heart skipped a beat, but his face was filled with confusion as he said, "Miss Huang Bing, what do you mean? I don't quite understand!"

Huang Bing's clear and ethereal gaze quietly stared at Chu Jun, as if she wanted to see through Chu Jun's heart. Chu Jun's scalp was a little numb, so he could only roguishly say, "Miss Huang Bing, why are you looking at me like this? I will be shy!"

Unexpectedly, Huang Bing was indifferent to his teasing. Her gaze was still calm as she looked at him. Chu Jun grinned awkwardly. Only then did Huang Bing withdraw her gaze and indifferently ask, "Really?"

Chu Jun shook his head and said, "How can I get something from the bottom of that freezing pool? You don't suspect that I broke the seal, do you?"

"Why did you say that a large number of ghosts were sealed at the bottom of the pond just now?" Huang Bing asked aggressively.

Chu Jun's expression darkened, "Didn't I just say that? I guessed!"

Huang Bing stared at Chu Jun without saying a word. The latter cupped his hands and said, "Miss Huang Bing, if there's nothing else, I'll take my leave!" As he spoke, he turned around and left.

Huang Bing looked at Chu Jun's back and thought to herself, "Could it be that he really didn't take that sword from the bottom of the pond?"

It turned out that Huang Bing had also discovered a sword at the bottom of the pond. However, she did not have the ability of Chu Jun's Blazing Sun Art. She was unable to drill into the pond, so she planned to try it again in the future when she succeeded in Foundation Establishment. She did not expect that the sword shadow in the pond had disappeared when she came the second time, and the pond water began to freeze. At the beginning, she had not suspected Chu Jun. After all, Chu Jun was only at the early stage of Spirit Refining. How could he have the ability to take the sword from the bottom of the pond? However, Chu Jun's performance just now quickly aroused her suspicions.

"Chu Jun, you brat, hurry up and come from the truth. What did Huang Bing want with you just now?" Shen Xiaobao gritted his teeth and asked.

Chu Jun smiled and said, "Nothing much. I just thought I was handsome and invited me to visit Phoenix City, but I refused!"

"Pei pei pei! Bullshit, I don't believe it even if I kill you!" Shen Xiaobao said hatefully.

Ning Yun flew to Chu Jun's left with a dark face and snorted, "Chu Jun, if you dare to let Senior Sister Zhao Yu down, you won't be my friend in the future!" After saying that, he fiercely clamped his mount, and immediately went ahead, giving Chu Jun the back of his head.

Shangguan Yu's heart trembled as he blurted out, "Xiao Yun, what do you mean by this?"

Shen Xiaobao's face was filled with jealousy as he said, "Big Senior Apprentice Brother, there's something you don't know. Chu Jun has already ruined Senior Apprentice Sister Zhao Yu!"

Chu Jun almost fell from his flying mount, "Shen Xiaobao, if you dare to talk nonsense again, I will slash you with my sword!"

"Haha, that … isn't a waste, it's a soak!" Shen Xiaobao chuckled.

Shangguan Yu let out an oh, but his brows furrowed. He had originally thought that Ning Yun and Chu Jun were a couple, but he didn't expect that Chu Jun would actually coax Junior Sister Zhao Yu. However, Ning Yun's performance wasn't right. Could it be that Chu Jun was stepping on two boats with one foot? Thinking of this, Shangguan Yu's heart couldn't help but sink. When he first met Chu Jun, his impression was originally not bad, but now it had changed.

Seeing that Shangguan Yu's expression was not right, Chu Jun said that he also liked Yu'er. Hearing that Yu'er was with him, he was unhappy in his heart. However, Shangguan Yu turned his head to look at Chu Jun and said indifferently, "Chu Jun, Junior Sister Yu's character and appearance are all outstanding. Being able to obtain her favor is your greatest blessing. You must not lose to her with two hearts and two minds!"

Chu Jun was stunned for a moment, but Shangguan Yu's words were sincere. Obviously, they were all sincere words and did not have the slightest bit of pretense. Chu Jun couldn't help but be respectful to this Eldest Brother. He nodded his head and said, "Eldest Brother has taught you the right lesson. Chu Jun will definitely not let Yu'er down!"

Shangguan Yu couldn't help but look a little better. He smiled and said, "I heard that you killed the ghost this time!"

Hearing this, Shen Xiaobao's eyebrows fluttered as he recounted the story of the ghost attack, causing saliva to splatter everywhere.

"Haha, it would be great if the main culprit was really Yun Chongzi. However, the Lie Fa Sect would probably treat this sect as a mortal enemy. Unfortunately, if I had returned a few days earlier, I wouldn't have missed such a good show!" Shangguan Yu said regretfully.

Chu Jun smiled and said, "I heard that Eldest Senior Brother has arrived at the Immortal Crossing Sea. Why don't you tell me what it is like to cross the Immortal Crossing Sea?"

Shen Xiaobao nodded in agreement, "That's right, Big Senior Apprentice Brother, this Golden-winged Lightning Condor of yours is a Second Grade and High Grade spirit beast. How did you tame it as a mount?"

Ning Yun couldn't help but be angry with Chu Jun and slow down as he flew side by side with the crowd. Shangguan Yu began to talk about how he had crossed the Spirit Beast Mountain Range and experienced countless hardships to reach the Immortal Crossing Sea.
