"That's enough."
Snow Empress withdrew her hand, her voice clear and calm.
Naturally approaching Kong Ming'an, Snow Empress slowly emitted an invisible, extremely cold Domain around her, isolating the sparse poisonous Qi that occasionally drifted over, and at the same time firmly protecting Kong Ming'an within her Domain.
The two walked side by side and stepped into it.
Soon, after Kong Ming'an conveniently picked a few Seven Absolutes Green Phosphor Flowers as materials, the two easily passed through the poison array, and suddenly, the scene before them opened up.
Unlike the deathly stillness and terror within the poison array, this place was vibrant with life.
The rich Heaven and Earth Origin Qi had almost materialized; Kong Ming'an instinctively took a deep breath, and immediately, his spirit power began to circulate instinctively, converting the surrounding dense Heaven and Earth Origin Qi into spirit power, propelling his Cultivation forward.
Cultivating here, his Cultivation speed would at least double!
"It really is a treasure land..." Kong Ming'an murmured in his heart, his gaze fixed on the center ahead.
There, a peculiar spring was divided into two halves: one side was as crimson as magma, constantly bubbling with scorching heat, emitting extreme warmth, while the other side was milky white, chillingly cold, with ice crystals that never melted congealing on its surface.
Two diametrically opposed Energies perfectly merged here, forming a gigantic, Tai Chi diagram-like wondrous spectacle.
And around the spring eye were various exotic flowers and Immortal Herbs, each with a unique form, displaying different Energy structures under Kong Ming'an's Energy perspective, and revealing the vast Energy contained within them.
Undoubtedly, this was the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
Kong Ming'an and Snow Empress slowly approached, and almost in the next moment, the huge pink flower by the bank where the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well's waters met trembled slightly, and then an angry voice suddenly rang out:
"Who are you?! How dare you trespass here! Leave quickly, or don't blame me for being impolite!"
It was the Delightful Silk Floss Immortal Treasure.
At this moment, she stared at these two uninvited guests, and without any hesitation, the pressure of a 100,000-year Spirit Beast directly bore down.
However, as the pressure fell, the two showed no change in their movements.
Kong Ming'an observed the Delightful Silk Floss Immortal Treasure with interest, a faint blue light in his eyes, as if he were examining an intriguing specimen.
Meanwhile, Snow Empress's gaze was directly drawn to an Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass on the cold side of the spring eye, which was entirely crystal white, as if carved from ice; its ice-attributed aura made her feel very comfortable.
The two tacitly ignored the Delightful Silk Floss Immortal Treasure's warning.
"You... how dare you ignore me!"
The Delightful Silk Floss Immortal Treasure seemed enraged; its huge flower shook violently, and a more powerful mental shock suddenly struck.
Snow Empress didn't even turn her head; her surrounding cold Qi merely intensified slightly, and the invisible mental shock was instantly frozen within three feet of her.
She tilted her head slightly, her ice-blue eyes looking at Kong Ming'an, not speaking, but using her gaze to inquire about the solution.
"Erase its consciousness, preserve its body."
Kong Ming'an spoke calmly.
The various Immortal Herbs of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and the Buddha Tang had a relationship, all of which were unstable factors.
For such existences that might be connected to Tang San of the God Realm and potentially backstab him, he naturally wouldn't let them exist; erasing their consciousness and preserving their bodies as materials was the best choice.
Snow Empress understood; she raised her finger and lightly pointed at the Delightful Silk Floss Immortal Treasure.
A subtle, extremely fine ice-blue stream of light flashed and disappeared, merging into the huge flower.
Immediately, the Delightful Silk Floss Immortal Treasure's shaking and clamoring ceased abruptly, and the vibrant light on the flower quickly dimmed; although it still emitted fragrance, it no longer had that intelligent and Smart feeling, becoming identical to the surrounding Immortal Herbs that only possessed instinct.
The air was silent for a moment; Kong Ming'an's command and Snow Empress's decisive action made these Immortal Herbs tremble slightly, and fear began to spread uncontrollably.
However, in the next moment, several varied streams of light rose, attempting to escape.
Yet, Snow Empress's eyes showed no change; more ice-blue streams of light flew from her fingertips, merging into each of the various Immortal Herbs.
Whether they had developed consciousness or were about to, all the surrounding Immortal Herbs were swept by this extremely cold aura, their consciousness completely destroyed.
In a short while, the valley returned to silence, with only the gurgling sound of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well's spring water rolling.
Thus, the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well changed ownership.
Kong Ming'an looked at this uniquely blessed treasure land with satisfaction, then squatted down, his spirit power flowing through his fingertips, carving a stable small spatial coordinate on the hard rock not far from the spring eye.
This was for establishing a permanent spatial gateway with the Undead Demigod Plane.
After finishing, he stood up, casually opened a gray spatial gateway beside him, reached out his hand, probed inside the gate, seemed to grope for a bit, and then gently pulled—
A young girl, wearing a white dress with pink embellishments and still holding a tender Blue Silver Grass stem in her mouth, was pulled out of the gate by him with a bewildered expression.
"Eh?"
The girl blinked, her eyes blank and clear.
After a while, she seemed to realize something, raised her eyes, and looked at Kong Ming'an beside her.
"Pre... President?"
"Long time no see, Xiao Ya." Kong Ming'an greeted her with a smile.
The girl before him was Tang Ya.
In the original story, Tang Ya was forced to leave Heaven Dou City due to the destruction of the Tang Sect, then joined Shrek, but ultimately, despairing of revenge, she actively triggered her Spirit's life-devouring characteristic, degenerating into an evil Spirit Master.
However, in this life, her fate changed.
She still joined Shrek, but after confirming that Shrek would not help her with revenge, she received an invitation from Mingmeng Commerce Association's "Enlightenment Project."
After an investigation and his help with her revenge, Tang Ya has now become the general manager of his "Blue Silver Grass Cultivation Base."
Blinking her clear eyes, Tang Ya realized something and quickly removed the life-type Blue Silver Grass from her mouth, then stood up straight, looking serious:
"Th-that, President, are you here to inspect the work? My monthly Cultivation efficiency report has already been submitted to Sister Ju Zi! And the new batch of improved Blue Silver Grass is growing very well!"
"Also, the Blue Silver Grass and various medicinal herbs crossbreeding plan you mentioned before, the records of Blue Silver Grass changes under divine blood Cultivation, and the variants like 'Blue Silver Wood' and 'Blue Silver Rice' used for construction, consumables, and food—I'm doing all of it, absolutely no slacking off!"
Tang Ya spoke hurriedly, looking like an intern who was slacking off but was suddenly checked by the boss, so she could only hastily report her achievements during this period to prove herself.
Snow Empress cast a strange glance at him, and Kong Ming'an chuckled softly.
Waving his hand, he interrupted Tang Ya's words.
"I didn't ask you to report on your work."
Tang Ya blinked, "Really?"
"Really."
"Hoo..." Tang Ya exhaled softly, patted her chest, and relaxed slightly.
Being suddenly checked by the boss at work was still too frightening.
