At the next second, Yang Dingtian felt his nape turning cold. Dongfang Bingling actually grabbed him. Immediately, all of his mystic qi had been bound as if he had been frozen. He couldn’t even budge.
“Let’s go, Shen Lang.” Dongfang Bingling spoke coldly.
Yang Dingtian was startled. She actually addressed him as Shen Lang. Could it be that she had yet to recognize him? Why would she seize him here?
Yang Dingtian frowned, “Where are we heading to?”
“Search for the Heaven and Earth Mystic Flame.” Dongfang Bingling replied.
Yang Dingtian was immediately terrified. How did Dongfang Bingling know that he was searching for the Heaven and Earth Mystic Flame?
“Young Lady Dongfang, you must have been mistaken. I’m under Lord Qin Wanchou’s orders to form an alliance with the Half-Human Race in the East Parting Grassland.” Yang Dingtian replied.
Dongfang Bingling commented coldly, “Shut up, don’t try to lie before me. If you’re going to say another sentence of you not searching for the Mystic Flame, I will sever one of your arms.”
Yang Dingtian turned quiet immediately. This Dongfang Bingling was definitely not joking. Qin San, Qin Liu, and Qin Qi were Qin Wanchou’s trusted bodyguards. Yet, she had slaughtered like chickens.
Furthermore, Yang Dingtian had somewhat understood why Dongfang Bingling was not able to recognize him. It was because she was extremely arrogant. In her eyes, Yang Dingtian was nothing. Therefore, she might have already forgotten how Yang Dingtian looked. Hence, she was not able to recognize him after he had disguised himself as Shen Lang and was even more disinclined to recognize him.
“Go, search for the Mystic Flame. I will not kill you once you locate it. Furthermore, I will give you sufficient remuneration.” Dongfang Bingling commented.
“Not killing me? Is it even possible?” Yang Dingtian couldn’t help but laugh coldly, “You had killed Qin San and the others. Aren’t you afraid that I would divulge this out?”
“So, what if you had divulged it out?” Dongfang Bingling commented coldly, “Wait till I have devoured the Mystic Flame and advanced to the Master class. Although I still wouldn’t be Qin Wanchou’s opponent, he wouldn’t be able to do anything to me as well. Today, I had killed his bodyguards, but he would still forget it because of joy.”
Immediately, Yang Dingtian was shocked.
She would advance to the Master class after devouring the Mystic Flame? Wasn’t she just 20 years old?
Yang Dingtian had always known that she was a Martial Supreme class expert. But he didn’t imagine that she was already close to the Master class. What kind of fortuitous encounter did she come across? What kind of secret realm did she discover?
“Go, search for the Mystic Flame. Speak another sentence, and I will cut off your tongue.” Dongfang Bingling commented coldly.
“Alright. Let’s go.” Yang Dingtian continued. Subsequently, he pointed at the south direction, “Go towards that direction.”
He pointed in the wrong direction. He wanted to draw Dongfang Bingling to Ba Bi.
“Slap…” Who knew that Dongfang Bingling would actually slap him after he had pointed in the direction. Yang Dingtian’s face was in pain, and his mouth was filled with blood.
“Shen Lang, remember this. My patience is limited.” Dongfang Bingling commented coldly. “The Mystic Flame is at the center of Burial Lands. If you dare to point randomly, I will cut off your arm directly.”
Yang Dingtian was astonished. Dongfang Bingling hadn’t seen the Mystic Flame map. How did she know that the Mystic Flame was in the center of Burial Lands? However, from this, Yang Dingtian would no longer be able to give her misdirections.
Dongfang Bingling held onto Yang Dingtian’s neck and landed onto the ground. Subsequently, she rushed towards the north and headed towards the center of the Burial Lands.
Immediately, Yang Dingtian felt that he was riding on the cloud. When Dongfang Bingling walked, both of her feet wouldn’t touch the ground and would hover an inch above the ground. All the weeds that were a meter before her delicate body would turn into powder as they scattered around the ground. Although the Burial Lands was extremely dirty, her delicate body was completely untainted by even a speck of dust.
***
Dongfang Bingling’s speed was extremely quick. In just half an hour, she had already reached the center of the Burial Lands.
There was a big lake here. The lake was dozens of miles wide. Furthermore, it was completely different from the other areas around the Burial Lands.
The other areas in the Burial Lands would be extremely dirty and foul-smelling. But this lake was like a picturesque landscape that was extremely beautiful.
The soil here was normal, and the grasses were just taller than the knee level. Furthermore, it was green in color. There were all kinds of beautiful and blossomed flowers at the center of the bushes.
Furthermore, the water from the lake was extremely clean like a mirror. The sky here was also dark blue in color as if they had been washed by the water.
However, it was clear that the beautiful scenery here did not garner any of Dongfang Bingling’s attention.
“Speak, where’s the Mystic Flame?” Dongfang Bingling inquired coldly.
“Below the water.” Yang Dingtian replied.
“Where is the exact location under the water?” Dongfang Bingling inquired.
“I’m not sure as well.” Yang Dingtian commented.
“You really have no idea?” Dongfang Bingling spoke coldly. Subsequently, two rays of light condensed from her pair of eyes and shot into Yang Dingtian’s eyes.
Currently, Yang Dingtian felt a form of energy that had firmly locked onto his mind and thoughts.
“I have no idea.” Yang Dingtian replied decisively.
He didn’t lie. He truly had no idea about the exact location of the Heaven and Earth Mystic Flame.
“You aren’t lying.” Dongfang Bingling commented.
“Then, can I leave now?” Yang Dingtian asked.
“No.” Dongfang Bingling replied, “Although you weren’t lying, you still withheld some other information purposely. Therefore, you cannot leave until I find the Mystic Flame.”
After she spoke, Dongfang Bingling wore a glove before grabbing onto Yang Dingtian’s arm. She leaped up and hovered above the core of this big lake.
“What are you going to do?” Yang Dingtian questioned.
Before Yang Dingtian’s voice could come out, Dongfang Bingling had grabbed onto Yang Dingtian directly before charging into the lake.
Dongfang Bingling was truly too heaven-defyingly strong. The instant she dived into the lake, everywhere around her was emptied. Everywhere she passed through had been instantly cleansed with an air tunnel appearing, causing her not to be moistened by the water.
Furthermore, her speed was extremely quick. In just a few minutes, she had already brought Yang Dingtian with her to inspect the whole dozen of kilometers long lake.
Currently, not only Dongfang Bingling but even Yang Dingtian was also striving hard to search for it. However, even after searching all the corners of the lake, they still couldn’t find any information on the whereabouts of the Heaven and Earth Mystic Flame.
There was nothing else other than water in this lake.
Furthermore, Ba Bi had said before that the whole lake would become a high mountain once the time had arrived. Therefore, Yang Dingtian felt that there should be a mountain hidden beneath this lake. When the Mystic Flame would bloom, it would bring forth shocking changes to the environment. Therefore, the mountain had to be somewhere within the lake.
However, Yang Dingtian had inspected it already. The dozen miles long and dozen of meters deep lake was just filled with lake water. There weren’t any traces of a mountain peak.

“Whoosh…” Dongfang Bingling carried Yang Dingtian and charged out from the lake as they continued to hover above the air.
“Why aren’t there any traces of the Mystic Flame in this lake?” Dongfang Bingling questioned.
“How would I know?” Yang Dingtian commented, “Shouldn’t you have a look at what’s below the core of the lake?”
Dongfang Bingling looked at Yang Dingtian for a moment. Subsequently, she grabbed onto his hand and dived into the core of the lake once again.
This time, Dongfang Bingling didn’t travel around the lake. Instead, she dived down after she had located the core of the lake, diving to the bottom of the lake.
Both of them reached the bottom of the lake after diving down for dozens of meters.
Yang Dingtian discovered a strange matter here.
The bottom of the lake was actually extremely flat. This was extremely unreasonable. Regardless of whether it was Earth, the lake in this world or even the bottom of the ocean, it should be filled with muds and deformed debris, and such it couldn’t be flat. There could be some area in the seabed that could be flat. However, the bottom of this lake was unconditionally flat.
Furthermore, there was a distinct ice-cold feeling when he stepped onto the lake floor. Moreover, this kind of ice-cold energy grew even stronger when he approached the center of the lake.
Dongfang Bingling pulled Yang Dingtian and arrived at the absolute center of the lake.
Since they were dozens of meters deep beneath the water, it was extremely hard for the lights from the outside to reach in. Thus, it seemed especially dark here.
Dongfang Bingling stretched her hand and grabbed onto a lump of water before closing her jade hand softly. She pinched, and immediately, the water was solidified into cold ice.
“Bam…” Immediately, this lump of cold ice suddenly exploded out.
Suddenly, the area before Yang Dingtian lit up brightly. When the lump of cold ice exploded, it was instantly turned into thousands of white lights as it shot out. It caused the bottom of the lake to be illuminated like daytime.
Under the white light illumination, Yang Dingtian was able to see that the bottom of the lake was flat and glossy. Furthermore, it was pure and translucent.
The bottom of the lake wasn’t covered by stones or muds. Rather, it was covered by a layer of cold ice. That’s right, solidified cold ice.
Dongfang Bingling released Yang Dingtian’s hand after discovering this point. She sat down above the cold ice and shut her beautiful eyes slowly as if she were sensing something.
When Yang Dingtian saw her beautiful as jade body sat above the cold ice, he almost couldn’t control himself and wanted to ask, “Fairy, aren’t you cold when sitting above the ice?”
However, this woman before him was someone who killed without blinking her eyes. Yang Dingtian would never ask this kind of question to provoke her. Rather, he sat down beside her.
Immediately, he felt that his butt had turned cold. Not only he couldn’t circulate his mystic qi to withstand the coldness, he still needed to suppress his Nine Yang Mystic Meridians. Otherwise, the ice beneath his butt would thaw and cause two loopholes to appear.
Just like that, Yang Dingtian and Dongfang Bingling sat above the ice that was at the bottom of the lake.
Time passed by minute by minute. At the start, Yang Dingtian had no idea what Dongfang Bingling was trying to do. He couldn’t possibly start cultivating at the bottom of the lake even though the ice-cold mystic qi here was extremely dense.
Four to five minutes later, Yang Dingtian felt the peculiarity at the bottom of this lake.
“Did you sense it, Shen Lang?” Dongfang Bingling inquired.
“Sensed it.” Yang Dingtian replied, “The ice at the bottom of the lake has been rising, and the water here is condensing into ice continuously.”
Dongfang Bingling nodded. “That’s right. The water here is being condensed into ice continuously. Sure enough, you didn’t lie. This is where the Heaven and Earth Mystic Flame is situated.”
Yang Dingtian commented, “Because the Mystic Flame is doing its best to devour the heat. Therefore, the whole lake started to solidify into ice?”
