Chen Xu exerted his mana and pressed the wine jar down through the air.

The soft, young voice on the cliff continued babbling, "Quick, release those sword insects, you don't know, if the sword insects die, all the Jade Needle Grass will die too.

If all the Jade Needle Grass dies, then everyone would have no way to obtain this Spiritual Medicine again.

Moreover, those sword insects are very dangerous, if they break through the wine jar, you'll be in trouble..."

Before the words finished, Chen Xu blew lightly onto the wine jar.

Then an orange-red flame leaped and landed around the wine jar.

In a moment, the soft flames swayed and grew.

Hulala——

The soft, young voice on the cliff didn't know that as the flame heated the wine jar, the sword insects inside, which were still colliding, began to slowly cease their assault.

By Chen Xu's ear, besides the continuous low shrieking of "ah ah ah" from the sword insects, there was also the sound of the Food Cauldron Celestial Book flipping open.

[Like +1+1+1...]

This was truly quite interesting.

It turns out these sword insects, though not possessing complete intelligence, were a peculiar species, belonging to the demon body.

So when these sword insects fell into the wine jar and got drunk and merry with the Joy and Sorrow Wine inside, their shrieks automatically turned into likes for Chen Xu.

Even though each shriek could only be [Like +1], there were so many sword insects.

So, in no time, Chen Xu accumulated a total of nine hundred and thirteen likes.

This was both a delightful surprise and Chen Xu's sudden inspiration.

If he hadn't wanted to test whether the sword insects would give likes, Chen Xu would have already burned those sword insects to ashes.

His Karmic Fire could burn even the likes of the Immortal Witch at the Core Formation Realm, although these sword insects had their strengths, surpassing the Core Formation Realm they could not.

Eventually, the movement of the wine jar completely stopped, and the sword insects inside it, completely drunk, were knocked out in the wine jar.

The soft voice on the cliff went "ah" three times in a row, the first in surprise, the second in puzzlement, and the third abruptly stopped.

Halfway through the "ah," with a kind of bewildering astonishment, it gradually faded away.

Splash!

A little hedgehog, using the Earth Escape Technique, suddenly burrowed to Chen Xu's side, rushing out, crossing its arms and stomping its feet next to Chen Xu.

"So cold, Brother Chen, I'm so cold..."

Wei Yuan shivered, the soft spines all over its body stood upright, and there was even a layer of frost on the tips of the spines.

"Huh!" the voice on the cliff finally spoke again, "You used Earth Escape, and yet you can come out from underground, don't you know, beside this Jade Needle Cold Pool, you cannot use Earth Escape?

Your Earth Escape Technique is so strong..."

Chen Xu was startled, he had just used the Wind Summoning Skill to catch the sword insects and put them into the wine jar, everything sounded long, but it all happened in an instant.

In an instant, as quick as a hare, Chen Xu dealt with the sword insects, but did not expect that after Wei Yuan used Earth Escape, it would be covered in frost, freezing cold.

Chen Xu quickly reached out his hand and said, "Ah Yuan, come into my arms."

While speaking, a soft, delicate flame, almost without temperature, appeared in his palm.

This was after Chen Xu's Fire Control Skill broke through to Level 3, allowing him to control the flames with great finesse.

Fire by nature rises hot, being essentially a form of intense energy.

Being intense energy, Chen Xu should be able to control its temperature.

For now, Chen Xu cannot raise the temperature of the fire too high using Fire Control, because he does not yet have the overwhelming power.

But he can control the fire to make it relatively gentle, making it fiery but not harmful.

Such meticulous control is actually extraordinary, no less than the ability to excessively raise the temperature of the flame.

Containing and restraining are sometimes even harder than releasing.

So in the Fire Control Skill, Chen Xu has always been very confident.

He generated flames in his hand, carefully holding Wei Yuan to warm it and fend off the cold.

The voice on the cliff went "Oh my!" once more, saying, "You also know the Fire Technique, your Fire Technique is good. But warming with Fire Technique, being both cold and hot, might bake the demon body until it cracks open...

Oh, it didn't!"

On the cliff, a continuous series of misjudgments, plus Chen Xu never responding, finally made that voice extremely annoyed, stopping its chatter.

Out of Chen Xu's line of sight, high on the cliff, near a gigantic rock about twenty to thirty zhang from the icy waterfall, a slightly upraised Sika deer impatiently stomped its foot.

It stomped, angry at both itself and at Chen Xu. But not knowing why it should be angry at Chen Xu, it finally could only sulk alone.

A long-haired white rabbit squatted beside the Sika deer, its long ears perked up, red eyes moving as it persuaded the Sika deer, "Sister Lu, why aren't you speaking anymore?

If you don't speak, how can we ask that person for the Jade Needle Grass?"

The Sika deer angrily said, "Even if I speak, that person wouldn't pay me any attention, how could he give me Jade Needle Grass?"

"Then, let's remind him a few more times," the rabbit hurriedly said.

The Sika deer stomped its foot, letting out a light hum, "No, I won't say anymore, unless he's in danger again, or recklessly dares to dive into the cold pool, otherwise I won't speak to him anymore.

Who... whoever talks to him isn't a deer!"

The rabbit could do nothing but lay flat, stretching its head beyond the gaps of the rocks and grass, continuing to observe Chen Xu below.

The Jade Needle Grass around this cold pool had actually been long coveted by countless Little Demons in the mountains.

However, the Jade Needle Grass was really difficult to pick, easily getting injured by the sword insects.

Even if many demons had the intent to gather it, approaching the cold pool meant either freezing or getting fatally harmed by the sword insects, leading the area around the cold pool to become a small forbidden zone over time.

No matter how enticing the Jade Needle Grass was, the demons dared not plot easily for it.

Besides, these sword insects coexisted with the Jade Needle Grass, if the sword insects died, the Jade Needle Grass would also die instantly.

With so many layers of protection, who would dare come to pick this Jade Needle Grass?

Even ordinary beasts in the mountains with no intelligence knew to avoid the area around the cold pool, understanding this place should not be approached lightly.

This was the reason why when Chen Xu suddenly set foot by the cold pool, he only saw lush greenery, but no other living beings.

Chen Xu still didn't know these details specifically, but just from the fragments of words from above the cliff, and the events he had just experienced, he could make a general judgment about the situation around the cold pool.

Chen Xu held the little hedgehog in his hands, using his Fire Control Skill to warm it up.

After a while, the frost on Wei Yuan's sharp spines completely disappeared.

The sharp spines all over its body gradually softened and lay down.

After another moment, Wei Yuan's shivering body ceased its trembling, and it suddenly exhaled a breath, a streak of ice-blue cold air shot out like a fine line.

Wei Yuan was startled, but fortunately, Chen Xu sidestepped his body, managing to hold the little hedgehog aside and avoiding the thin line of icy cold.

This was too abrupt, with no intent from Wei Yuan to harm Chen Xu.

It looked at Chen Xu, carrying an unspeakable panic.
