Ling Chen led the way as Qin Qing and he finally found Liu feifei. She was pretty much in the same state as Qin Qing as someone was about to attack her and she was fighting against three members on her own. So, Ling Chen became the Prince Charming for her too as he saved her ass. They found three Jade Seals till now.

They only had a time period of two days before they will be teleported to Blood Lake just like how the ones there would be teleported here. So, they have to do their best.

The Forest of Bones is called such because at the center of the forest are densely packed bones which try to hide the Green Jade light emitted. Three Jade seals area always formed in the center of those bones, but no one has any guts to try to pick them because it is simply throwing away life. Even though no one knew the exact reason and procedure, one thing was clear to everyone: There is no one who escaped their fate of becoming a pile of bones after reaching the center.

Sheng Tian left the Cold Beauty. Suddenly, Xiao Lian spoke in an interrogative tone "Did you really want to help her?"

Sheng Tian said in surprise "Oh, You woke up from your 'deep meditation'. Surely, you heard it all right." he grinned cheekily for catching her red handed.

Xiao Lian protested and said seriously "Stop diverting the topic. Did you talk to her only to help her?"

Sheng Tian was silent for a moment before he responded calmly "You know me better, right? I am not a saint. I helped her because I'm in interested in her, her history, character, and beauty. And one more reason is, somehow she reminded me of you, who wished salvation through death. And the last reason, I just wanted to, I was interested in cold beauties."

He didn't want to start creating misunderstandings by speaking one lie after another. He felt that she deserves his trust.

Xiao Lian went silent for some time before she sighed. She too knew that someone like Sheng Tian would never settle for a single woman. Even though she knew it, she felt a bit sad. After growing on earth, she developed the idea of monogamy but even her 'father' in this life has more than one wife. So, with time, she came to accept this strange custom in the last 16 years. That is the reason she is not completely stubborn or against it when Meng Xin's topic was brought out, except no matter what, she still felt a bit of reluctance and fear.

But seeing him being completely honest with her, She felt a bit better as this showed that there are no barriers between them and Sheng Tian would not be someone who would leave her. The one thing she hated and dreaded the most is 'betrayal'.

Sheng Tian was her only solace soothing her scarred heart. Perhaps, she saw him as someone who won't abandon her no matter what. She enjoyed his affection and care. Even though she might not live to accompany him to the end, she wanted to indulge in this sweet fantasy before it shatters. She wanted him to be happy too, so she didn't go head against polygamy, but at least she wanted him to only be with her till she stays with him. She decided to be a bit selfish this time.


"Sheng Tian, I have a request." She asked solemnly.

"What?" he asked a bit taken back by her sudden change of tone.

"Until I say yes, don't go after anyone else, ok? Please?" at the end, she sounded like begging him instead of requesting him.

Sheng Tian's heart shook as he heard her tone. Until now, she always had a cheerful or mischievous tone. But now she sounded so pitiful. It sounded like she was begging him to listen to her. Since their hearts had a link, He could feel the bitterness, hope, and sincerity she was felling. After hearing her sincere yet pitiful tone, He felt an incredible sadness welling up inside his heart. He never realized that he was so emotionally attached to her until he felt pain in his heart when he heard her heartbreaking voice.

Maybe it was not logical for someone like him who acts rationally to act based on emotions, but f**k rationality! He didn't care! Now his only was to give happiness to the one person he cared about in this world.

"I won't go after any lady even if she is a goddess. I won't leave you even if you ask me to." He sighed deeply and solemnly said as all his plans of winning the Ice Beauty were thrown into the trash that very second.

Qin Cheng reached the place where Sheng Tian was previously. The Jade seals in his hand glowed in a direction. But he knew that their time was almost up. He pointed the Jade Seals in all the directions, north, south, east and west. But there was the previous glow was not present.

He was confused, then he thought of something. He pointed the Jade Seals downward. The Greenlight glowed with the same intensity as earlier showing that the Jade seals he came for were taken down.

But who would be stupid enough to go to the depths of the lake? Also, there are only a few hours present before they would be teleported to the Bone forest.

Qin Cheng felt that it would be waste to let go the Jade Seals go just like that. He ordered the two sisters of Mystic Ice Sect to go down and acquire the Jade Seals. Of course, they would only go with absolute safety. They would retreat even upon the slightest danger.

The two sisters were the strongest of Qin Cheng's group each with a cultivation base of 6th level of Earth Profound Realm.

When they were going deeper, they felt a familiar aura a bit far away. When they used their spirit sense in a straight line to check the aura, they were stunned. It was Leng Yue Yan! Earlier, before entering the Formation, they didn't see the other party members due to their arrogance so, they didn't know that she was here. But now seeing her in person, they were both speechless.

Leng Yue Yan; hailed as the Ice Goddess of the Mystic Ice Sect, is the strongest cultivator under the age of 20 in the sect. It was said that she once fought with a Sky Realm Cultivator without losing. She was the most worshipped yet the most isolated disciple of the Mystic Ice Sect.

These two sisters were naturally below her in status, cultivation or bearings. They didn't like her. They were jealous of her. But they couldn't do anything about it. However, when they thought about the fate she had to face when she turns 25, they couldn't help the gloating smiles appearing on their faces. She is just like a shining star whose brightness is the highest before it dies down. They thought and dived deeper.

The pressure started increasing. The blood in their body slightly trembled with some feeling they couldn't understand. They used their profound energy to protect their bodies but their blood started feeling restless.

Soon, they reached a point where they didn't dare to move deeper anymore. The short haired girl pointed downwards and shouted: "Sister, Look!".

Startled by her twin sister's, the girl with long hair focused her vision in that direction. Suddenly, her eyes widened and her mouth opened like a cave. Thankfully she was using Profound Energy to cover her face and body, or else, she might have drunk a mouthful of water.

(Author's note: For those geniuses who now got the question of how they spoke till now without opening their mouths, I will leave that to your imagination :P)

The long haired girl saw a dot going down into the water. She focused on hearing the sounds by focusing her spirit sense.

Even though cultivators can see in normal water clearly. Their sight in other mediums would be restrained. It is especially so for a magical place like Blood Lake. Once you are at a certain distance, you can't see the person. This is why even why Sheng Tian appeared far away in the water, they couldn't see him. Unlike normal water which only restrains sight, this blood lake cuts off the vision of objects after they are beyond a certain distance.

So, their option is to depend on sound to determine the positions. So, when the tall-haired girl focused on hearing the sounds from below, she heard the booms of water blasting.

She was shocked. How is it possible? Even though they too can travel down, they can't guarantee their safety 100%. Although the chances of an accident are small if they go only a little distance, it is still dangerous.

But this person is literally giving no sh*t about the dangers and dashing down. How can he bear the pressure on his body and the disturbance in his blood so easily? He is a genius!

The eyes of the two ice colds were shining with crescent moons in admiration.

If Sheng Tian knew that his action of traveling downwards at reduced speed to ensure safety made the two sisters from Mystic Ice sect his fans, he would have done it long ago. Alas, after traveling to such depths, he was ignorant.

Earlier Sheng Tian thought of snatching Jade Seals from Qin Cheng. But he decided to do that after he collects the seals from Forest of Bones as well if any are left.

Sheng Tian traveled deeper into the lake as the red color of the water started getting thicker. He felt the pressure increasing but with his Dragon Physique's, he just brushed it off. And the blood in his body only trembled a little when he first entered the lake, from then on, there is no further reaction. There is no feeling of restlessness in his blood. It might be due to his bloodline.

Sheng Tian soon saw the Lake bed. It was pitch black in color. Sheng Tian had an ominous feeling seeing it. Suddenly, his eyes caught a glimmering green light contrasting the Dark Red Water and the Black Lake Bed.

Sheng Tian dashed towards the green light. After he landed on the ground, he quickly picked up the seal which was never touched in history.

As he was about to go up, the corner of his eye caught an arc. When he looked over, he saw a Large circle filled with Red and Black colored inscriptions. It gave off a thirsty and ominous feeling.

Sheng Tian felt his scalp go numb. But he didn't fear much these things as he used to and went to the formation. On the interior of the circle were some creatures found in the lake as they slowly turned from fat to thin to bony as their blood was extracted into the center. In the center of the formation were wisps of red colored substances coagulating. After that, the substance stuck to the center firmly as it slowly lost its red color and turn black.

As Sheng Tian arrived near the Formation, suddenly a large suction force activated as he was being pulled to its center.

Sheng Tian felt his blood slightly rumble but it soon went into control. He fought against the formation and used his Profound Energy to escape. But his moments became stiff as he was unable to move forward but he made sure that he didn't take even a step back.

Sheng Tian felt like a mountain being pressed on his back as his legs felt incomparably heavy. He smelled something, the smell of death.

He didn't give up, He resisted the formation as seconds turned to a minute and minutes turned to hours.

Even though he is in water, Sheng Tian's back was drenched with sweat. He preserved for a few hours. He took it as a test of his will power. Then, he laughed loudly. He let his body loose as he felt himself being pulled into the formation. But before he could enter the outer edge of the circular formation, a light covered him as he disappeared.
