Chapter 4379: Enemy Spotted

hat bit onto the green ancient bottle.Lu Xia Tian had a few puppets in his hand, but none of them were a match for the bear-headed snake-bodied monster. Whether he released them or not made little dif...“Elder Dongfang Dan, you've worked hard. I still have two sets of materials here, and I'll need to trouble you further.” Bing Qianren took the pill bottle, opened it and looked, her smile widening.

"How are my friends doing" Lu XiaTian asked.

"As friends of the Eastern Divine Alchemist, we will naturally welcome them with open arms. Coincidentally, my clan has encountered some trouble, and afterwards, the safety of the Eastern Divine Alchemist might depend on those few friends. I shall send someone to invite them over." Bing Qianren hastily said.

“Good.” Lu Xia Tian nodded. He was originally thinking about how to meet Lou Yikong and Fu Lian Yue later, but Bing Qianren directly proposed it. He didn’t know if the Bingying tribe people had really encountered trouble or other issues. However, regardless of the situation, the other party taking the initiative to ask Lou Yikong and others to come over was exactly what he wanted.

Bing Qianren was very efficient in handling matters, and soon brought Lou Yikong, Fu Lianyue, and the siblings Wen Tingfeng over. Seeing that Lu Xiaoteng was unharmed, everyone showed joy on their faces. Although they were temporarily confined here, the five of them were still safe and sound.

“The safety of Eastern Saint in the East will be entrusted to you three. After we handle the matter at hand, we will send clan members to protect Eastern Saint.” Bing Qianren bowed after explaining the situation to Lou Yi Kong and the others.

"This is our duty." Lou Yikong and several others immediately replied.

Before long, Bing Qianren and the other members of the Ice Shadow Clan successively withdrew.

“Eastern Divine Saint, have these Ice Shadow Clan members really left” Lou Yikong and the others successively transmitted their voices to Lu Xia tian. They all couldn't sense the presence of the Ice Shadow Clan. When facing the sneak attack of the Ice Shadow Clan members before, only Lu Xia tian could react the fastest. Without a doubt, Lu Xia tian’s primordial spirit was stronger than any one of them. At this time, if anyone could sense the existence of the Ice Shadow Clan members, it should be Lu Xia tian alone.”

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

“I’m not sure either. These Ice Shadow people do have a distinct advantage in this icy and snowy land, and it's probably not entirely due to their own strength. Perhaps there are special treasures passed down through the Ice Shadow clan. From this distance, while they remain still, I haven’t detected anything unusual.”

Lu Xia Tian shook his head. These years, he had been trapped here. Besides alchemy and cultivating himself, he was also secretly setting up a temporary passage within the Bingji Xuechi. As for the Ice Shadow Clan's hidden figure, Lu Xia Tian had also pondered it.

After years of pondering, Lu Xia Tian had indeed figured out some useful things. So far, all the Ice Shadow Clan members he had encountered were skilled in the art of concealing their figures. Although they relied on the icy and snowy terrain to achieve the state of becoming invisible, even he found it difficult to detect them. When they actually fought, their initial three moves were indeed powerful, but as the battle progressed, their combat effectiveness among celestial beings seemed mediocre. It shouldn't be entirely due to their own abilities.

Lu Xiaitian speculated that besides the inherited martial arts, there should be other external conditions such as treasures passed down by the Bingying Clan.

No matter what external conditions, if the other party can reach this state of trance-like immersion, it is already enough to intimidate the enemy.

"This is really troublesome. Before, they just said that after you, Eastern Saint, refined the pills for them, they would let us go. Now that the pills have been refined, they don't mention letting us leave at all. We are trapped here and can't communicate with the outside world, not even a single person to help us." Wen Tingyu said with some annoyance in her voice.

"Let me finish refining these two materials first. You guys stay guard around here and don't let anyone get close to my barrier." Lu Xia Tian was worried that the others might show some unusual emotions, so he didn't reveal the passage under Binghai Xue Tan to them for now.

“Good!” Though Lou Yikong and the others couldn’t hide the worry on their faces, there wasn't a better option at this time besides continuing to refine pills for the Bingying Clan.

Lu Xiaoteng continued to refine his pills in the center of the ice and snow pool. To Lu Xiaoteng's surprise, the fourth furnace of medicinal pills was also successfully refined, but there were only two inferior-grade pills. At this time, no one from the Bingying tribe came to collect the pills.

“Could it be that there’s truly no one from the Ice Shadow Clan nearby” Lu Xiaotian couldn’t help but feel a bit surprised. The current situation didn’t seem quite logical. He suppressed his curiosity and continued refining his pills. Trying to find other exits at this point seemed too slim of a hope. It would be better to stay put here. They already had a passage, so there was no need to risk venturing elsewhere.

Regardless of whether there were other Ice Shadow Clan members here, Lu Xiaotian continued to refine the fifth furnace of elixir. After all, the passage in the Ice and Snow Lake was only a preliminary construction, and the risk of teleportation was too great. If he had more time to eliminate some unexpected situations, it would be more stable. The actions of the Ice Shadow Clan at this time were all abnormal.

Prior to this, Bing Qianren would send people over every once in a while, or even come personally to check. It was evident that the Chi Yan Jiu Qiao Bing Po Dan was indeed extremely important to the Ice Shadow Clan. However, after taking away two pills, it seemed that he no longer paid much attention to them. Lu Xiaoteng could only guess that perhaps the other party's need for this kind of pill wasn't so great, or it was possible that they had encountered a major threat.

“Anyone dares to use our Chiyan clan's crystal core to refine medicine, it is truly a capital crime!” Until one day, Lu Xiaoteng's fifth furnace of elixir had reached the final stage. Suddenly, a sound like a great bell reverberated through the air. The mighty voice made Lu Xiaoteng's blood feel as if it were being scorched by flames.

“No wonder.” At this moment, Lu Xia Tian naturally understood what was going on without anyone needing to explain it. The Ice Shadow Clan had indeed run into big trouble. Just the fact that the other party had turned things around and directed the anger of these Chi Yan clan members onto him was truly vicious.

The Bingying Clan continued to have him refine pills, while simultaneously withdrawing all members of the Bingying Clan, leaving only him and a few others like Lou Yikong nearby. At this time, people from the Chiyan Clan arrived, naturally venting their anger onto Lu Xiaitian and the others.

Even Lou Yi Kong and Fu Lian Yue, who were usually oblivious, sensed something was amiss at this moment and guessed what had happened.

Before either side had made a move, that roar shook Lou Yikong and the others, causing their immortal essence to become chaotic. Their chests felt unusually tight and uncomfortable. At this moment, everyone's faces paled. The enemy's cultivation base had definitely reached the Golden Immortal level. Even if the five of them joined forces, they were far from a match for him.

The previous Ice Shadow Clan, although harboring ill intentions, had never directly resorted to violence. Now that new enemies have arrived, it is unlikely they will escape unscathed.

“Come inside the barrier, let’s teleport away together!” Just when Lou Yikong and the others were feeling utterly desperate, Lu Xiaottian’s voice suddenly reached them through telepathy. Lou Yikong, Fu Lianyue, and the others were simultaneously jolted, then reacted with incredible speed, rushing into the barrier.
