Ice Phoenix [Monday Ask For Recommendation Tickets]

Lu Shui stopped reading at this moment. Last night had indeed been tiring, and he had consumed a lot.

He had eaten to the point where he couldn't eat anymore.

Not only that, but his body now contained the four attribute powers of fire, earth, yin, and yang.

If they weren't digested by himself within four to five days, they would be digested by the Active Method, which might allow him to advance to the Third Tier.

His luck was truly good.

Although True Martial and True Spirit had lost their color, they had gained considerable benefits.

However, they couldn't eat anymore either.

"It has calmed down now. It seems there are no more problems," Lu Shui muttered silently, then lowered his head to continue reading.

After reading for a while, Lu Shui spoke:

"Throw the things piled over there into the Wind Frost River."

True Martial and True Spirit were a bit confused. Throw them into the river?

Wouldn't that cause pollution?

But being accustomed to acting, they had already thrown the leftovers from last night into the Wind Frost River.

Old Man Withered Tree, watching all this from the depths, twitched his eyes. If the Third Elder knew that Young Master Lu was throwing trash into the river, he would be furious.

Even the clan leader would come in with a whip.

Finally, Old Man Withered Tree sighed softly:

"I'll turn a blind eye. Fortunately, they are just ordinary bone piles, and the Wind Frost River will dissolve them quickly."

The cold energy of the Wind Frost River was extremely special. It could freeze people and, more importantly, dissolve matter.

Subsequently, Old Man Withered Tree began to wait for the time. When evening arrived, he would start sending out treasures.

The first item he would send was a magical treasure.

It was a bracelet named Yang Yan.

This magical treasure was personally refined by the Third Elder, using materials that were the rare Yang Yan Fire Fish Skeleton, something seldom seen in the Wind Frost River for thousands of years.

Legend had it that this Yang Yan Fire Fish had reached the end of its lifespan and voluntarily died on the Fishing Platform, which was how the Third Elder was fortunate enough to obtain it.

It was a pity that it was a single fish. Otherwise... otherwise, it wouldn't have gone to the Fishing Platform to await death.

"How precious is the skeleton of this Yang Yan Fire Fish! As long as Young Master obtains the bracelet, he should have no problem getting through the next few days.

Moreover, this bracelet is a magical treasure that can activate a unique attack. At the Second Tier Peak, one can release the Supreme Yang Immortal Fire within it. Young Master, being in the Wind Frost River, must be longing for it."

Old Man Withered Tree was full of confidence. However, to let Young Master know the function of this magical treasure, he needed to leave a mark to serve as an instruction manual.

Lu Shui was reading, continuously reading.

True Martial and True Spirit, on the other hand, were constantly monitoring the Wind Frost River, fearing the appearance of anything new.

It wasn't until the afternoon that nothing else appeared, which greatly relieved True Martial and True Spirit.

In the evening, Lu Shui closed the Heaven and Earth Array Patterns. He had read for a whole day and needed to rest his eyes.

After all, he didn't plan to sleep here tonight. The banks of the Wind Frost River were already considered the Extreme Cold Land. They, who were enduring the extreme cold aura at this moment, could not sleep.

Falling asleep was a very dangerous thing.

In his previous life, the moment he fainted, he was immediately carried out, because he could have truly died there.

And at this very moment, something suddenly floated towards the riverbank.

Lu Shui looked over and saw it was a bracelet.

True Martial and True Spirit also saw it.

"This is a magical treasure? A magical treasure that can drift in the Wind Frost River, it doesn't look simple at all," True Martial said.

True Spirit nodded as well:

"There's a faint firelight emanating from this bracelet. It should be a magical treasure that can ward off the cold."

After speaking, they looked at Lu Shui, waiting to see their Young Master's reaction.

But Lu Shui remained silent, which made them feel a bit confused.

Finally, True Martial asked:

"Young Master, you don't want it?"

As long as Lu Shui said he wanted it, they could move to retrieve it.

Lu Shui looked at the magical treasure in front of the Fishing Platform and finally shook his head:

"Just an ordinary magical treasure. If I wanted one, I could grab a big pile from the warehouse."

True Martial and True Spirit were speechless. What Young Master said made so much sense that they couldn't refute it.

This was the foundation of the Young Master of the Lu Family.

Old Man Withered Tree: "..."

He attached a wisp of consciousness to the magical artifact, allowing him to hear Lu Shui and them.

But it would have been better if he hadn't heard them.

At first, he thought the young master couldn't hold on and was unable to retrieve the magical artifact. Turns out, he just didn't care for it.

One thing was somewhat comforting, though: the young master's condition was good.

In the end, Old Man Withered Tree let the Blazing Sun Bracelet drift away. Since the young master didn't want it, he would find something else.

This was his mistake. After all, their Young Master Lu wasn't someone who lacked money; he needed something more powerful to impress him.

Lu Shui watched the magical artifact disappear without much concern.

He wouldn't take anything from the Wind Frost River, whether it floated out from the riverbed or was deliberately sent to him. It made no difference to him.

Things like fortuitous encounters were sometimes just unreasonable.

The Wind Frost River possessed exceptionally mysterious properties, making it the most likely place to trigger a fortuitous encounter.

A seemingly ordinary bracelet might contain a hidden space, and that space could very well be a world unto itself.

At the very least, it might hold an ancient spirit, and these things often resonated with whatever lay at the bottom of the Wind Frost River.

In short, no stealing, no robbing, no greed.

Ignore dead objects; eat living things if you can.

He didn't care about True Martial True Spirit either. After the impact last night, a mere magical artifact was nothing.

Deep night.

Old Man Withered Tree felt it was time to send the second item. This time, the item was definitely a rare treasure.

Even Lu Shui, the young master of the Lu Family, wouldn't be able to produce such a thing casually.

"This time, let's see if you still don't get tempted."

Old Man Withered Tree was full of confidence, eager to see Lu Shui's astonished reaction.

Lu Shui was reading a book when he suddenly heard some sounds, faint and intermittent, like a phoenix cry.

Soon, the sound became clearer.

True Martial and True Spirit also perceived it.

Then, they looked towards the sky above the river. Not long after, they saw it: an egg, entirely snow-white and emanating a chilling aura.

"Is this... a phoenix egg?" True Spirit couldn't quite believe it.

True Martial was also surprised, then nodded:

"It should be. There's a faint phoenix shadow flickering above this egg. This should be an Ice Phoenix Egg on the verge of hatching."

True Martial and True Spirit couldn't understand what was going on with the Wind Frost River this time.

Why were things appearing one after another?

But soon, their brows furrowed. Was this phoenix egg going to be wasted?

After all, their young master only knew how to eat.

Lu Shui also looked at the phoenix egg, quite surprised.

Cold Plain Ice Phoenix? It's indeed quite rare. Mu Xue used to raise one. It was particularly difficult to roast, Lu Shui thought to himself.

He remembered that Ice Phoenix belonged to the Lu Family Spirit Beast Garden. His mother had specifically given it to Mu Xue.

Mu Xue had raised that Ice Phoenix very well. It was fat and white, covered in meat.

One day, when he was idle and bored, and Mu Xue was in seclusion, he had roasted that Ice Phoenix.

He had roasted it for over ten days, and it was just starting to be cooked when Mu Xue emerged from seclusion.

Then they fought for a long time.

After that, he hadn't seen that Ice Phoenix much. He heard it was busy trying to lose weight.

Lu Shui felt it was quite a pity. Such a fine fat bird had been wasted like that.

Snapping back to reality, Lu Shui examined the bird egg and finally shook his head, choosing to ignore it.

True Martial was puzzled:

"Young master, you don't want it?"

This was an Ice Phoenix, wasn't it? The Lu Family didn't have one, did they?

Lu Shui shook his head:

"It's already formed. You can't even make a fried egg out of it. What's the point of having it?"

True Martial, True Spirit: "..."

Old Man Withered Tree: "..."
