Li Qing entered the Yellow Springs Stone Tablet's space once more, this time carrying the Fire Spirit Pearl on him.
Although the pearl's origin had been severely damaged, it still contained the laws of the Great Dao. It was a sacred treasure unique to a single realm.
After waiting here for another eighteen years, Lin Jing appeared even weaker. Even within the Yellow Springs Stone Tablet's space, her voice could only ring out intermittently.
"Master."
Seeing Lin Jing within the ice crystal, Li Qing frowned slightly and said,
"Do not panic. Your master will get you out at once!"
Saying this, Li Qing took out the Fire Spirit Pearl.
Buzz!
In an instant, the entire pitch-black space became incomparably bright. Crimson spiritual power poured forth like fluorescent light.
Li Qing repeatedly tapped the void with one hand, and figures of spirit fire burst forth from his fingertips.
The spirit fire merged with the spirit pearl, and the temperature throughout the space rapidly rose.
Before long, the seemingly eternal, unmeltable ice crystal ahead finally began to show signs of melting.
This was the product of Yellow Springs Water and Great Yin True Water. It could dissolve all things beneath heaven, and once it froze into ice, it could freeze every living being within, leaving them neither aging nor dying inside the ice crystal while greatly slowing the loss of their lifespan.
Under the combined effects of the Fire Spirit Pearl and Heaven and Earth Spirit Fire, this peculiar ice crystal melted ever more rapidly.
Li Qing did not waste the mysterious water produced by the melting. Instead, he stored it all away in the Black Furnace.
When he continued cultivating the Dao Tribulation Wuji Scripture in the future, he would need this kind of destructive power to temper his own body.
