The Demon Ice Exhibition Hall was large, and with Golden Dragon Demon Ice broken, there were no treasures inside, dissuading many who had wanted to purchase the ice.

Even with such high-quality and uniquely shaped Golden Dragon Demon Ice, there were no treasures inside. This could only mean that the same was true for other ice exhibitions, although this was common knowledge. However, people's minds played tricks on them, causing them to believe that there might be treasures inside any uniquely shaped ice.

In this place, only Shen Xiang could see whether there were treasures inside the ice. However, Shen Xiang did not have high hopes; he believed that it was unlikely for treasures to appear inside the current batch of ice, especially since this type of ice looked quite exquisite. He was just curious about how these ice formations came to be.

These pieces of ice in the exhibition hall seemed as if they were sculpted by humans. Shen Xiang did not believe that they were naturally formed; he thought these ice formations must have been intentionally created by someone and discovered after many years.

There were quite a few people in the exhibition hall, as it gathered many powerful figures from various factions and those with plenty of crystal stones. They had nowhere to spend their wealth, naturally wanting to come here for a chance at fortune, as some treasures were priceless and no matter how many crystal stones one had, others would not be willing to sell them.

A man wearing black clothes walked up to Shen Xiang, bowed his hands, and said, "Companion, I apologize for my forward manner earlier. Please forgive me!"

The man was the owner of the Golden Dragon Demon Ice. Shen Xiang did not expect him to apologize proactively, but based on the previous incident, this person seemed honest despite being a little blunt. Although he lost the bet, he was straightforward and admitted defeat.

"It's nothing… May I ask, what is your name" Shen Xiang waved his hand and asked.

"I'm Bi Xian. What about you" The man wearing black clothes smiled and said, his intention clearly for friendship.

Shen Xiang also wanted to know about the Golden Dragon Demon Ice and responded with a smile, "Cai Dai!"

Bi Xian was shorter than Shen Xiang but had a sturdy build. Although he wasn't particularly good-looking, he looked very attractive from certain angles. His face was angular and showed a sense of stability, although his previous actions seemed impulsively done. Now he understood that the reason for him wanting to befriend Shen Xiang was because of his previous actions.

There was no conflict between the two, and neither were narrow-minded. They quickly started discussing their interests.

Shen Xiang felt that Bi Xian was not simple. Although he appeared to be someone who had survived through six涅槃 realms, Shen Xiang sensed a hidden strength from him, as if he was just mistaking his aura. It felt like Bi Xian was hiding his true strength.

"Senior Brother Bi, how did you obtain the Golden Dragon Demon Ice Getting it might not have been easy…" Shen Xiang and Bi Xian chatted about various things before asking directly, "Senior Brother Bi, how did you obtain the Golden Dragon Demon Ice It seems like you're not simple!"

Bi Xian was not surprised, and also replied with a telepathic message, "I got it from the ancient regions of extreme cold. The Golden Dragon Demon Ice is buried very deep… there's actually a secret, only those with strong powers know about it!"

"What's the secret" Shen Xiang had always been curious about where these unique ice formations came from. Although Liu Qinglian also had them, those were found by chance.

"There are hidden rivers in the ancient regions of extreme cold, and most of these unique ice formations are submerged deep in those rivers. Although many powerful factions know about them, they can't take them up… because those hidden rivers are extremely cold. Even if very powerful immortals were to go down, they might turn into Demon Ice!"

Shen Xiang secretly marveled. The ancient regions of extreme cold actually had hidden rivers beneath them, suggesting that they were responsible for the formation of the extreme cold regions. He also felt that those ice formations should have formed in a similar way, planning to find those hidden rivers someday.

"Senior Brother Bi, is the Golden Dragon Demon Ice you obtained from there It seems like you're not so simple!" Shen Xiang looked at a lion-shaped ice piece with three heads, and telepathically continued, "Not you, but it looks like you were just lucky."

"It wasn't me who obtained it, but I was just lucky. It happened to encounter a hidden river spouting out ice, and the Golden Dragon Demon Ice was released from someone else's excavation spot. However, this kind of situation is very rare; I was just lucky!"

Shen Xiang did not believe that Bi Xian was just lucky, but he didn't push the conversation further since they were not yet very close. However, he had a plan to let Bi Xian take him to find those underground hidden rivers.

"Big Brother Cai, why are you so sure that there's no treasure inside my Golden Dragon Demon Ice Don't tell me it was just luck, I could sense your confidence back then. It wasn’t the same as those gamblers betting on luck." Bi Xian asked, realizing his intention to befriend Shen Xiang.

Shen Xiang would never admit that he could see treasures inside the ice. He responded, "It's just a family secret technique, but it doesn't work on every piece of ice. Especially on those ordinary Demoices, it's hard to tell. But if it's this high-quality ice, I can easily see it! Not all of them, but the Golden Dragon Demon Ice is one that I can see clearly."

Hearing Shen Xiang's words, Bi Xian was thrilled!

"I didn't expect to find someone like Big Brother Cai, who can see whether there's treasure inside the ice. Although not all Demoices work, this is impressive!" Bi Xian was amazed and inwardly sighed. He didn't lose much by betting with Shen Xiang, as the latter did not increase their bets, which could have been costly.

This improved his impression of Shen Xiang and gave him the opportunity to befriend such a person.

"Big Brother Cai, since you have this family secret technique, how about we collaborate We can make a huge profit using the Demon Ice!" Bi Xian telepathically suggested.

This suited Shen Xiang's plan. He knew that he would soon be able to follow Bi Xian and find the hidden river sprouting out ice!

"Senior Brother Bi, I don’t lack crystal stones! I just want more high-quality Demon Ice. Because I think these broken ones have very high value for usage," Shen Xiang explained.

Bi Xian was alarmed; although this wasn't unheard of, he knew that the "Big Brother Cai" in front of him had secret techniques that might be able to turn those Demon Ice into powerful creations.

Shen Xiang tempted Bi Xian again, hoping to follow him after the Demon Ice was finished. If nothing went wrong, he should be able to join Bi Xian in his search for the hidden river sprouting out ice.

In the exhibition hall, not all Demon Ice was of high quality and unique formations. There were also many supposedly "inferior" Demon Ice pieces, those that were ordinary. It was in these inferior Demon Ice pieces where Shen Xiang had found the悟道石, a powerful creation.

Shen Xiang and Bi Xian approached the inferior Demon Ice pieces, and Shen Xiang noticed a yellow, ellipsoidal ice piece. When he looked at it, his Chaos God Eyes seemed to be able to discern something inside.

"There seems to be something inside this ice! I didn't expect that even inferior ice has treasures, and it's the first time for me!" Shen Xiang telepathically told Bi Xian. He needed to prove his technique, making sure Bi Xian believed him thoroughly.

Bi Xian was delighted, "Can you tell what the treasure inside is"

"I can't. I can only see if there's something inside, but the treasures are hard to discern," Shen Xiang spoke the truth.

"How much does this ice cost" Shen Xiang asked.

An old man responsible for the area walked up and said, "This isn't for sale; these are gifts. Only those who purchase designated Demon Ice can get them here. This isn't the place to sell inferior Demon Ice."

Shen Xiang nodded, "I see. I said before that there's no way you would sell inferior Demon Ice."

He looked at Bi Xian and jokingly asked, "Earlier when I bought the Golden Dragon Demon Ice from you, there were no gifts"

Since the bet started earlier, Shen Xiang and Bi Xian became noteworthy figures in the exhibition hall. Their cooperation turned many people's heads, and their ability to become friends stunned them.

"That was because someone prepared gifts, and there were also those who didn't," the old man chuckled. He knew that these two were not people to be trifled with; the former could have provided Golden Dragon Demon Ice, while the latter could throw away more than a trillion crystal stones. Neither was someone he could provoke.

Shen Xiang smiled, "Oh I wonder what kind of Demon Ice one needs to purchase in order to get this ellipsoidal ice piece I'm quite the person who likes small benefits!"

Shen Xiang would never announce that he wanted to buy the ellipsoidal ice piece directly!
