The Crimson Lord world-

"The plan seems to have worked out for the time being. I managed to alter my aura to give it more of a lifelike feel. The other party must be assuming me to be another Emperor level cultivator who is hiding in the dark. But the situation gets worse as time passes. The guy must be consulting with his fellow sect mates about this matter."

"What should we do?"

"Su Menqi's situation is unique. As soon as she comes in contact with the frost liquid flowing in the spring, her body will automatically start devouring it. Given the quality of the Qi, a rapid increase in cultivation would soon follow. We need to prevent that." The Keeper extended his hand and touched Long Tao's head. A bunch of information began to flow into his consciousness.

"This is the method to help her suppress rapid increment. If the two of you can achieve a certain amount of barrier, the body would start utilizing the collected Qi to develop itself. Although a harsh method, her current cultivation level requires the least amount of energy to develop into the perma-frost body."

"You need to maintain the suppression until the change happens. The artifact will simultaneously start absorbing the frost energy. It will not only help in mending the damages. The energy will also come handy in improving your cultivation."

"The resources present here belongs to Su Menqi. I will not be using anything that would harm her cultivation speed."

"You don't need to worry about that aspect boy. If my estimations are correct, she would require no more than a third of this pool to successfully transform her body into the next level. In the meantime, the artifact will absorb the rest of the energy and it can be given back to her in the future, in the form of Crimson world Qi, which is far superior in grade to this energy."

The Keeper proposal was quite beneficial for the duo. Long Tao was in dire need of the ice-energy to test his theory of elemental acupoints. So far only two elements were able to open up acupoints in his body, fire (from the beast flame0 and thunder (from the thunder pool above the thunder-god hall).

.............................................

"We need to increase the pace of the current work-flow. You need to concentrate on the pathway which I am going to show you. Make sure to follow it properly. All three of us will assist you in the process."

Long Tao transmitted the information to Su Menqi. She entered the frost spring and the other three surrounded her and began to instill their energy into her. The biggest supply was soul energy. The best way to help her in this situation was to improve her soul strength. She could then control her body likewise.

Su Menqi was doing a great job in that area. The artifact simultaneously began absorbing the frost Qi. Long tao hoped for another upgrade, but it wasn't going to happen anytime soon.

The first complication occurred when Su Menqi first came in contact with the dense frost energy. He body received a jolt and began to rapidly absorb it. As a result, her cultivation base began shooting up. The speed was incredible, but the objective required her to suppress her cultivation level. She was trying her best to do so.

Although the speed decreased, her cultivation was still rising. By the time she finally managed to gain control over her cultivation level, she was already at the 9th level of Qi general. Any mistake now could result in her stepping into the domain of king, and the objective would fail.

"You need to stay strong. Concentrate on the long term benefits rather than this short term gains." Su Menqi finally managed to get a grip on the situation. The vessel was slowly filling up, and soon enough it reached a maximum. The transformation finally began. The energy was being consumed and utilized in enhancing the quality of the body.

A phenomenon similar to when Su Menqi unsealed her body took place. Her body was radiating cold energy which was rapidly rising in terms of quality and power.

"Increase the supply of soul power. The process will get more complex as time passes by. She needs the supply to help her be conscious."

" What would happen if she loses her conscious."

"I would advice you to pull her out of the spring and let me absorb the remaining energy."

"Wouldn't she enter the king realm with the continuous supply?"

"Theoretically she would, but I would advise against it. The essence of becoming a Qi king lies with the establishment of law. Now the law to be established differ in quality. The higher the quality of your law, the stronger would be your power. The grades are divided into human, earthly, and heavenly laws."

"What is the difference between the strengths?"

"Let's take three Qi kings who are at the first stage but differ in the law they have established. An earthly law establisher would be ten times powerful than a human law user. A heavenly law user would be 10 times as powerful as an earthly law user. I suppose you can easily understand the situation as of now."

"If Su Menqi loses consciousness during the process the frost energy collected within her body would automatically form the easiest law, the humane one. Her future would be quite limited thereafter."

"What if she manages to transform into the perma-frost body?"

"The chances of forming an earthly law increases by 10 times, and with your help, that is the least she could achieve. Her chances of achieving the Heavenly law would be quite high. That is our objective. I would create some concentrated energy balls of ice-element, which would help her to form the highest possible laws. Forming a heavenly law is one of the requirements to successfully transform the perma-frost body into an absolute frost body."

" I guess I would need some extra hands then."

Su Menqi was soon supplied with huge amounts of soul energy. Long Tao wanted to help her to the best of his capabilities. After all his wife couldn't lag too much behind himself.

................................................................

Within the central plains, multiple powers were occupying a huge and dispersed topography. The powers were graded according to their overall strength and allotted a particular domain. Clashes were quite common and there would be a new power rising now and then. Even then, the old establishments continued to cultivate powerful groups of cultivators who would become the future pillars of the sects. These establishments remained in play for a long time.

One such establishment was the Frostleaf sect. It was a Monarch grade power and consisted of a huge amount of disciples. In one of the Halls, a conference was currently taking place.

"You are sure about her possessing the ice-jade body while still being in the Qi general level?"

"I have confirmed it with my own eyes. We need to get that girl into our sect. The sect master has long been looking for a suitable successor and she could prove to be the one. The ice-jade increases her chance to form an Earth grade law while stepping into the Qi king realm. The only other earth grade law cultivator is our sect-master. Wouldn't she be the perfect successor to her?"

"Let us capture the girl first. We would then request the sect-master to deliver her opinion."

A group of four Qi emperors soon rushed out of the sect in search of a group of four people. They wouldn't realize until later, that the group they came in search of had already escaped from the region.

...............................................................…

Su Menqi was on the verge of collapse from the grueling efforts required to transform her body. " She needs to hold a bit longer. The ice-jade body has already reached peak grade. A little more and a successful transformation to the perma-frost body would occur."

Long tao was feeling nauseous and dizzy by the excessive amount of soul power being consumed in the process. He couldn't even make sense of the Keeper words, but something just inspired him to instill all his soul energy into Su Menqi.

The three figures collapsed after doing so. But the efforts didn't go in vain. Su Menqi 's skin was visibly torn by now and she was already unconscious after exerting all her efforts.

"They did manage to reach the point." The keeper couldn't help but give out a satisfied expression. Su Menqi was shedding a huge amount of dead skin, underneath which a pearly white skin came into being. Her beauty was enhanced exponentially as the impurities were slowly being excreted. 

The artifact finally managed to absorb the whole spring and instantly vanished from sight along with the four unconscious figure. It was not until later that day when four figures hurriedly entered the hall.

It was none other than the four elders from the Frostleaf sect. they rushed in with maximum speed, but to their dismay all they could find was an empty hall with the frost spring vanished from its place.

"Look out for their aura traces. They couldn't have gone too far from here."

But to their surprise, there were no aura traces within the hall. It was as if the group of four vanished into thin air.
