Duan Gujin's brows deeply furrowed, he released his Divine Sense, scanning the surroundings.
His mind was filled with doubt; he truly couldn't understand why there were so many pieces of gravel here.
Those walking in the front feared this might also be a test from the Liuyun Immortal Sect, hence they spared no effort to clear the gravel away.
Quickly, the group cleared away the gravel.
After the people in front had cleared a path, others entered the passage.
After passing through the passage, they saw a space crystal wall in front of them, and in front of the wall stood a stele that read: "This place is a millennium land of Yin Cold, containing countless Yin Cold Spiritual Objects. Take the necessary Yin Cold Spiritual Objects, refine the Anti-Cold Spiritual Medicine, and then cross the Extremely Yin Land."
Upon reading this, everyone's brows furrowed tightly, the same thought crossing their minds.
"Good heavens! How is this possible? Normally, to resist the cold, one would need Extreme Yang Spiritual Items, but in a place full of Yin Cold Spiritual Objects, how could one possibly find Anti-Cold Spiritual Medicine?"
Such were the thoughts in everyone's minds, but having come this far, they wouldn't give up without taking a risk.
Thus, everyone immediately passed through the space crystal wall and entered the Secret Realm in front.
After passing through the space crystal wall, they instantly felt the temperature plummet by several tens of degrees.
Even though those present had read the introduction on the stele and were mentally prepared, they were still shocked by the Yin Cold Aura.
Many people shivered and then ran their Primordial Power to generate heat, which finally shielded them from the invading Yin Cold Aura.
"It's really too cold here!"
Many people exclaimed.
Everyone immediately extended their Divine Sense to inspect the conditions around them.
Duan Gujin released his Divine Sense and saw that the surroundings were shrouded in a vast expanse of white snow; the ground was very flat, devoid of any vegetation.
The entire environment within the Secret Realm was eerie and terrifying, with cold winds fiercely assaulting the faces of every contestant.
"Who would have thought, this time, the test for the Liuyun Immortal Sect's Sixth-level Alchemists would be so unique!"
Everyone's expression changed, as they had previously inquired about the test from seniors who had already passed the Liuyun Immortal Sect's Sixth-level Alchemist test. From these seniors, they knew that the testing methods of the Liuyun Immortal Sect varied each time, being highly irregular.
It is said that the higher-ups of the Liuyun Immortal Sect believe that once an Alchemist's Alchemy Techniques surpass the Fifth-level, the High-level Alchemist can hold their ground already.
The Liuyun Immortal Sect needs those Alchemists who can flexibly apply their Alchemy Techniques, not those who can only refine Elixir Pills strictly according to the Elixir Recipe.
In this sense, the Liuyun Immortal Sect places more emphasis on an Alchemist's ability to flexibly apply their knowledge of elixirs under different environments.
Duan Gujin's brows slightly furrowed, he noticed the ground beneath his feet was extremely smooth.
He sent his Divine Sense into the ground below, inspecting the situation underneath.
After a while, he discovered that beneath his feet was a huge block of ice, under which there was water.
"Could it be that the place we are standing on is a massive pool?"
This thought quickly flashed through his mind.
The others immediately dispersed in all directions, believing that the Yin Cold Treasures here were scarce; they thought to grab whatever they could quickly.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
The contestants around immediately spread out, releasing their Divine Sense and widening their eyes, carefully scanning their surroundings, not overlooking any plants that grew here.
The contestants were well aware that for them, time and taking the initiative were of utmost importance now.
Duan Gujin quickly moved towards the left area, extending his Divine Sense and keeping a watchful eye, carefully observing the situation around him.
However, to his surprise, he did not expect that after traveling a full three kilometers, he had not seen any plants in this yin-cold land, which seemed to be surrounded entirely by barrenness.
"Good heavens! Why is it like this here?"
He frowned slightly, contemplating.
But he did not stop; the stele had not given them many clues, and he only knew that to pass this level, he must find enough Yin Cold Spiritual Objects and refine them to help withstand the yin-cold aura of this stage.
However, so far, he had not found any Yin Cold Spiritual Objects.
"Could it be that the people from Liuyun Immortal Sect only want to test which of us has the best luck?"
He frowned and thought for a while, feeling that this possibility was unlikely.
Logically, the Liuyun Immortal Sect couldn't just be assessing an alchemist's luck. They surely placed more emphasis on testing an alchemist's alchemy abilities.
With this doubt in his mind, he continued to move forward.
After a while, he saw another contestant ahead.
Just like him, that contestant was also searching for Yin Cold Spiritual Objects.
Upon seeing someone else, the contestant quickly called out: "Friend, I just want to ask you something. I've been searching here for a long time and haven't found any Yin Cold Spiritual Objects. What about you?"
Duan Gujin slightly furrowed his brows and hurriedly replied loudly: "Friend, just like you, I haven't found any Yin Cold Spiritual Objects here. All I've seen along the way are bare chunks of ice, completely void of any Yin Cold Spiritual Objects!"
"Oh!"
The contestant did not know whether to believe Duan Gujin's words or not, but seeing as the other party was also searching around like him, he let out a troubled sigh.
"If this level really is assessing who among us has better luck, and if the other person's luck is truly better than mine, what could I say?"
The contestant, like Duan Gujin, was truly perplexed about the purpose of this test.
They went their separate ways, each continuing their search for the Yin Cold Spiritual Objects.
Duan Gujin proceeded forward, and after a while, his Divine Sense Inspection detected someone ahead, with their face covered and body lying flat on the ground.
The person's body was lying on the ground, and their face-covering cloth had been smeared with ice fragments.
Seeing someone disguise themselves so, Duan Gujin guessed that the person harbored ulterior motives.
"It seems very likely that this person intends to sit and wait for prey, laying in ambush for a target here!"
He sighed inwardly; he did not expect that in such a short amount of time, someone would resort to covering their face with cloth strips to rob others of the hard-earned Yin Cold Spiritual Objects they found.
He initially intended to leave directly, but after a while, he saw four graceful women passing by on the left.
He recognized that those four women were the ones with the lovely faces he had seen before. His eyes flashed as he warned: "The four women up ahead, be careful where you walk. I saw someone with their face covered by cloth, planning to rob here. Pay attention and observe your surroundings when you walk!"
Upon hearing Duan Gujin's words, all four women immediately heightened their alertness.
"Is what you're saying true, or is it false?" asked one of the women in a clear voice.
"Of course, what I'm saying is true. Be careful!" he responded.
After saying that, he waved his right hand, pointing in the direction where he had previously detected the lurking person.
The four women quickly understood and immediately released their Divine Sense in the direction Duan Gujin had pointed.
After a while, all four women had detected the presence of the person with their Divine Sense Inspection.
The ground where they were now standing was very flat, with nothing but a vast expanse of white ice blocks surrounding them.
