The Zhu Family's Ancestor smiled and said, "Back then, I found the Inferno Stone in the same Ancient Ruin where I found the formation plate of the Thousand Illusion Killing Formation."
"Ye Xiao, after going out, can you give a message to my Zhu Family's members?"
Ye Xiao nodded his head and asked, "What message do you want me to deliver to the Zhu Family."
"Tell them, my soul will vanish in the next fifty years so they have to send someone to obtain my inheritance as soon as possible otherwise, they will lose their chance to obtain my inheritance. After this bit of my soul will vanish, this Infernal Phoenix Plane will be destroyed. At that time, no one will be able to obtain my inheritance." said the ancestor of the Zhu Family.
Ye Xiao nodded his head and promised the old man that he will definitely deliver this message to the Zhu family, and then asked how to go back.
That old man pointed at the long corridor from where he came and said, "Follow the path you came and open the Moonstone Door. This Moonstone Door is actually connected to the door that you see at the underground palace. It is just that when entering, a formation laid by me gets activated because to which the person who enters will find themselves in the middle of the river of magma."
Ye Xiao now understood why there was an underground palace built inside the Zhu Family. He started to walk back the same path and after arriving in front of the Moonstone Door, he slowly opened it.
Here, this Moonstone Door slowly opened while outside, in the Zhu Family, all the elders present there saw the Moonstone Door of the underground palace slowly opening.
One of the elders hurriedly ran back to the family and informed the patriarch about the opening of the Moonstone Door. The patriarch of the Zhu Family hurriedly gets up and prepares to welcome Ye Xiao back while making the elder who came to inform him, go to the Great Elder and give him this news.
Helplessly, that elder once again ran toward the place where the great elder lives to give him that news.
The door of the Underground Palace slowly opened and soon Ye Xiao walked out from inside and saw some elders staring at him with their eyes filled with hope and expectance.
Soon, the patriarch of the Zhu Family arrived and he was followed by the Great Elder, Pill King Zhu. After the arrival of these two people, some more elders also appeared.
"Welcome back, Young Master Ye Xiao!" The patriarch of the Zhu Family smiled at Ye Xiao as he cupped his hand and welcomed him.
Ye Xiao knew what they want just by seeing their eyes full of hope and expectance. He did not waste his time. He took out the Infernal Phoenix Seed's box from his spatial ring and gave it to the patriarch of the Zhu Family, saying, "Here is the Infernal Phoenix Seed."
The patriarch of the Zhu Family hurriedly took the box from Ye Xiao's hands and opened it in front of everyone. Seeing that the object inside was the same as what was described in the books, the Zhu Family's patriarch laughed out loud, and following him, other elders also laughed.
After laughing for a short while, the Zhu family's patriarch looked at Ye Xiao and said, "Since Young Master Ye Xiao kept his promise, we, the Zhu Family will definitely not back down. Please follow me to the treasure and from there, you can take anything you want."
Ye Xiao nodded his head and decided to tell them the message of their ancestor. Before this, he did not give them the message because he wanted to see if the Zhu family keeps its promise or not. If they would not have kept their promise, Ye Xiao had already made up his mind that he will not only not give them their ancestor's message, he will also take away the Infernal Phoenix Seed.
His cultivation was no longer suppressed so he can now fully utilize his strength.
Seeing that the Zhu family kept their promise, Ye Xiao gave them the message of their ancestor. Hearing the message, the Zhu family was shocked to the point where they kept looking at Ye Xiao without blinking their eyes.
Knowing that the soul of their ancestor was out there waiting for his descendent inside the Infernal Phoenix Plane, they immediately became excited and decided to do their best to raise someone who can enter the Infernal Phoenix Plane and obtain their ancestor's inheritance.
After that, they led Ye Xiao to their treasury where Ye Xiao spread his Divine Sense to find something that can be useful to him but as he expected, there was nothing that attracted his attention.
Ye Xiao was disappointed.
Although the treasury of the Zhu Family was full of Low-Grade and Middle-Grade Spirit Stones, many rare medicinal herbs, weapons refining materials, higher-graded pills, they were not enough to enter his eyes.
He let out a sigh of disappointment then bid his farewell.
The Zhu Family asked why he did not take anything and the answer he gave them made them roll their eyes. He said that there was nothing in the treasury worth him taking so he did not take anything.
It was fortunate that the ancestor of the Zhu Family has already given him the Inferno Stone otherwise this trip of his would have been nothing but a waste of time.
After leaving the Zhu Family, Ye Xiao aimlessly walked and when the night was about to descend, he booked a room in a luxurious inn and went to sleep.
The next morning, after waking up, Ye Xiao washed and then ate his food. Then he once again entered the Heavenly Pearl and arrived at the Nine Story Pagoda.
Since he had already refined the Ice Heart Pill, it was time to eat it.
After arriving at the First Floor of the Nine Story Pagoda, Ye Xiao sat down cross-legged and ate one of the Ice Heart Pills. The moment Ye Xiao swallowed the Ice Heart pill, a cold sensation surged inside his body, giving him the feeling that he will turn into an ice sculpture at any moment.
At this time, the Blue Fire Soul within his body felt threatened as it started to emit more fire energy, giving Ye Xiao a chance to take a long breath.
The Ice Heart Pill he concocted was at the Seventh Tier. Its potency and power were something a Sixth Tier Pill will never match. He underestimated the power of the pill, resulting in him almost turning into an ice sculpture.
If not for the Blue Fire Soul, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
Ye Xiao did not dare to underestimate the power of the Ice Heart Pill anymore. He started to circulate the Third Layer of the Nine Dragon Universal Circulation Technique and along with the temperature brought by the Blue Fire Soul, he managed to suppress the cold feeling within his body.
He then slowly started to refine the cold energy of the Ice Heart Pill roaming within his body. He can now feel the changes happening within his body. His body was slowly gaining affinity with the Ice element of the world. It also means that very soon, he will gain an Ice Elemental Body.
Although he had the Blue Fire Soul and can control the fire, it did not mean that he had the Fire Elemental Body, and the same goes for the Heavenly Thunder. He did not have a thunder elemental body but now, very soon, he will gain an Ice Elemental Body.
He also planned to obtain Fire Elemental and Thunder Elemental Body in the future. Now, he already had a mine of elemental stones. This was the fourth mine that opened along with the mine of High-Grade Spirit Stones.
With the elemental stones, his body's affinity with the corresponding element will only grow stronger and stronger and it will not be long before he will even surpass those who possess an inborn elemental body.
Ye Xiao slowly refined the cold energy that was making him feel so cold that he was shivering. The only thing that made him comfortable was the fire energy that was trying to suppress the cold energy in his body.
At some moment, when the Blue Fire Soul was about to succeed in suppressing the cold energy, Ye Xiao once again ate a second Ice Heart Pill and not long after, he again ate the last pill.
He had a total of three Ice Heart Pill. Although a single Ice Heart Pill can still grant him an Ice Elemental Body, the affinity of his body with the ice element would not have been much strong. But now, after swallowing the three Ice Heart Pill, his body's affinity with ice element was close to someone who was born with an ice elemental body.
Yes, he finally obtained an Ice Elemental Body. In the future, he'll search for ways to obtain a Fire Elemental and Thunder Elemental Body.
