The "Voice of Eternal Heaven" regarding the Mysterious God Conference brought a long-lasting and huge wave to the Eastern Divine Region. In addition to the Eastern Divine Region, the largest Western Divine Region, as well as the Southern Divine Region and the Northern Divine Region naturally received the news and also produced considerable changes.
Under the harsh conditions of this Profound God Convention that were far different from those of previous ones, even the Divine Ice Phoenix Sect, which was the supreme ruler of the Snow Song Realm, had only a very small number of disciples eligible to register, and they were basically all concentrated in the Divine Ice Phoenix Temple. The total number of qualified people in the thirty-six Ice Phoenix Palaces was less than a hundred, and they were all at the very edge of the registration qualification.
The great opportunity from the Eternal Heaven Pearl made everyone in the Snow Song Realm who was eligible to register unable to contain their excitement. However, they all knew very well that no matter how hard they tried, they would never be able to obtain the qualification to enter the Eternal Heaven Divine Realm... For them, as a profound practitioner of the middle-level star realm, to squeeze into the top 1,000 among the younger generation of the entire Eastern Divine Region was nothing more than an illusory fantasy.
It was also because of this Voice of Eternal Heaven that the Ice Phoenix Realm was a little less deserted than usual. A large part of the attention was directed to the Profound God Conference in thirty months, which was destined to be extraordinary.
"Junior Brother Yun, open the door. Master wants to see you."
Standing in front of Yun Che's training room, Mu Xiaolan knocked at the door impatiently. The "Voice of Eternal Heaven" that day had obviously dealt him a great blow. Mu Bingyun thought that after he calmed down, he would take the initiative to find him to seek a solution, but five days had passed and Yun Che had not made any movement. Moreover, judging from his aura, he had been staying in the training room for the past five days and had not come out even half a step.
“Junior Brother Yun… Yun Che… Hey! Quickly open the door, it’s Master calling you!”
Mu Xiaolan's voice gradually became louder, but the stone door of the training room was tightly closed and there was no movement.
"If you don't open the door, I won't care about you if Master gets angry! Open the door quickly and follow me to see Master!"
"Hello!!"
Boom! !
A blue light hit the stone door. Mu Xiaolan stomped her feet in anger and turned away.
“Where’s Yun Che?” Mu Bingyun asked in surprise when she saw Mu Xiaolan coming back alone.
“Hmph,” Mu Xiaolan curled her lips and said, “I called him for a long time, but he ignored me. Besides, I told you it was Master who came to find him… I’m so angry! How can he be so arrogant just because Master loves him? I’m so angry, so angry!”
“…” Mu Bingyun’s eyes turned slightly, and she said softly: “Although Yun Che’s words and actions are more reckless than those of ordinary people, he is not a person who does not know etiquette. Could something have happened?”
"Xiao Lan, follow me to take a look."
"oh."
Mu Bingyun personally came to the training room where Yun Che was. When she approached, a strange aura made her crescent-shaped eyebrows move violently. Her figure quickly approached, a blue light flashed, and she pushed the door of the training room directly open.
"Ah!" Mu Xiaolan screamed when the door of the training room opened.
An extremely chaotic, icy aura like a blizzard surged out from the training room, and the source of this chaotic aura was unexpectedly a blue figure in the training room.
A somewhat violent blue light was floating on the figure's body, and the entire body was covered in a thick layer of ice. It was motionless, and the facial features could not be seen at all. One could only barely capture the outlines of the torso and limbs.
“Ah… he… he…” Of course, the only person who could be in this training room was Yun Che. But what appeared before Mu Xiaolan’s eyes was only an ice sculpture that continuously released chaotic cold air, and this chaotic cold air clearly carried the aura of the Jade Falling Ice Soul Pill.
Mu Xiaolan was a little frightened and stammered, "Did he... force himself to take the Jade Falling Ice Soul Pill?"
Mu Bingyun’s face turned cold. She waved her hand, and the stone door of the training room closed instantly. Her figure flashed to the side of Yun Che. She stretched out her right hand, opened her slender jade fingers that looked like they were carved from ice and snow, and quickly and gently stroked Yun Che’s body.
“He… is he still alive?” Mu Xiaolan asked tremblingly. Even she would never dare to force herself to swallow the Jade Falling Ice Soul Pill, but Yun Che actually ate it on his own. With his mortal body… the consequence of doing so would be death, not to mention that five full days had already passed.
By now, his entire body, from the inside out, should have completely turned into ice powder...
Although, she didn’t like Yun Che that much, but she didn’t hate him too much either… The key point was, her master still doted on him.
When she asked this question, she did not expect to get a positive answer. But immediately, she saw Mu Bingyun's expression suddenly change, from extremely solemn to a little strange, and then she showed more and more surprise, as if she had suddenly seen something unbelievable.
“Master, what happened to him?” Mu Xiaolan asked more carefully.
“He… is still alive.” Mu Bingyun’s tone was strange.
"Ah?" Mu Xiaolan was stunned.
"Also, although his meridians are somewhat damaged, his profound meridians..."
bite……
Before Mu Bingyun finished speaking, the ice layer covering Yun Che suddenly shattered into a large number of cracks, and then scattered down. Before it hit the ground, it was carried far away by the air current.
The ice layer fell, revealing Yun Che's body... The surface of his body was surging with profound energy, with a faint blue light. Because his clothes had long since turned into ice powder, when the ice layer shattered, his entire body was completely naked in the sight of Mu Bingyun and Mu Xiaolan.
“Ah—” Mu Xiaolan’s eyes suddenly widened, her lips opened wide, and she was halfway through screaming when Mu Bingyun whispered to her, “Don’t make a sound.”
Mu Xiaolan quickly covered her lips and turned around like lightning. A blush spread from her cheeks to her neck in an instant. Her breathing became panicked and rapid. After a long while, she said in a trembling voice: "He...he...he's not...wearing..."
"He is not dead, and... he is still absorbing the medicinal power of the Jade Falling Ice Soul Pill."
Mu Bingyun's voice was very soft, but it was filled with deep surprise. She waved her hand, and a wisp of icy mist covered half of Yun Che's body. Then she stepped back two steps and said, "Xiao Lan, turn around."
Mu Xiaolan turned around carefully, but still didn’t dare to look up at Yun Che. She said timidly in a low voice: “Is he… is he really okay?”
“Although it is incredible, he is indeed not in any danger.” Mu Bingyun did not say much, but her brows were furrowed, and her pupils were filled with deep confusion. From Yun Che’s internal energy, she felt that his meridians must have been severely damaged not long ago... It should have been within the past few days. This was also the inevitable consequence of forcibly taking the Jade Falling Ice Soul Pill. But when she examined Yun Che’s whole body, she found that the degree of damage to his meridians was extremely minor.
How could such a serious meridian injury heal itself to such an extent in such a short time... and the medicinal power of the Yuluo Binghun Pill is still impacting his body.
“How… is this possible?” Mu Xiaolan’s face was filled with disbelief. “Even if it was me, if I took a Jade Falling Ice Soul Pill, I would die very quickly. And he… it’s been five days. Ah… his profound power!!”
Mu Xiaolan then noticed that the aura of profound energy released by Yun Che was already at the eighth level of the Sovereign Profound Realm… and was close to the late stage.
"He is not only safe and sound, but also in a stable state. He has completely controlled the medicinal power of the Jade Falling Ice Soul Pill." Mu Bingyun said: "From the smell of the medicinal power, he has absorbed and refined about 80% of the medicinal power of this Jade Falling Ice Soul Pill. In a few more hours, he will have absorbed all of it."
Another doubt flashed through Mu Bingyun's mind... The medicinal power of the Jade Falling Ice Soul Pill was so strong that if a profound practitioner in the early or middle stage of the Divine Origin Realm could absorb and refine enough of it, his profound strength cultivation could be raised by at least one small realm.
The medicinal power that can raise the Divine Dao Profound Strength by one small realm... Yun Che has now absorbed more than 80% of the medicinal power, but his profound strength has only been raised by three small realms of the Sovereign Profound Realm? ?
This doesn't make sense.
Could it be that... because he forcefully absorbed and refined the medicine, the previous medicinal power was dissipated and wasted to a great extent?
Mu Bingyun stood in mid-air, opening a colorless and invisible barrier to isolate everything that might disturb Yun Che. Her gaze was also fixed on Yun Che.
His Sky Poison Pearl, Jun Xuan's combat power comparable to that of the Divine Origin Realm, and using Jun Xuan's body to forcibly refine the Jade Falling Ice Soul Pill... Things that kept happening to him surprised her, and even overturned her cognition. There was still 20% of the Jade Falling Ice Soul Pill's medicinal power that had not been absorbed, and she wanted to witness with her own eyes what kind of changes this 20% of medicinal power would cause to Yun Che.
Three hours passed slowly in silence. Yun Che's expression remained exceptionally calm, and his aura became increasingly stable. As the last medicinal power of the Jade Falling Ice Soul Pill was gradually absorbed and refined, the icy blue light covering his body completely disappeared.
Yun Che’s profound energy aura also finally settled at the late eighth level of the Sovereign Profound Realm.
When Mu Bingyun and Mu Xiaolan arrived, Yun Che’s profound energy had already been stimulated to the late eighth level of the Sovereign Profound Realm. Even after continuing to absorb and refine the last 20% of the medicinal power, he still hadn’t broken through to the ninth level of the Sovereign Profound Realm.
This result caused Mu Bingyun's heart and soul to be in turmoil for a long time.
The last 20% of the medicinal power was absorbed under her perception. Yun Che's control of the medicinal power was perfect, with almost no waste. If the medicinal power of 20% of the Jade Falling Ice Soul Pill could be absorbed and refined to this extent by a profound practitioner at the eighth level of the Sovereign Profound Realm, it would definitely be enough to directly break through to the tenth level of the Sovereign Profound Realm.
But in Yun Che's case... it was not even half a small realm improvement.
Could it be that his profound veins... or the laws of profound strength are different from those of ordinary people! ?
After five full days, the medicinal power of the Jade Falling Ice Soul Pill was finally absorbed. Although the medicinal power was much stronger than Yun Che had expected, it was still safe.
The profound strength forcibly increased by spiritual medicine was not stable enough after all, and it needed quite a long time to settle. Yun Che felt his new profound strength, opened his eyes, and looked directly at Mu Bingyun.
“Palace Master, I am sorry to have made you worried.” Yun Che said apologetically. He had already noticed when Mu Bingyun and Mu Xiaolan arrived, but he was simply not able to be distracted at that time.
“…But it seems that you are not impulsive.” Mu Bingyun looked at him deeply, her eyes revealing a deep complexity. She had been in the God Realm for thousands of years, and her cultivation was at the top level in the entire Snow Song Realm, but she could not understand what happened to Yun Che again and again.
“You really… ate the Jade Falling Ice Soul Pill?” Mu Xiaolan still couldn’t believe it.
“Yes. As expected of a spiritual medicine from your God Realm, the effect is indeed extraordinary.” Yun Che raised his hands and stood up while speaking. A Jade Falling Ice Soul Pill allowed his profound strength to be raised from the fifth level of the Sovereign Profound Realm to the late eighth level of the Sovereign Profound Realm in just five days. This kind of medicinal pill had never appeared in the Profound Sky Continent, even in myths and legends.
As he stood up, the icy mist that Mu Bingyun had previously covered him also dissipated.
“Wow——”
Mu Xiaolan suddenly let out an earth-shattering scream and covered her eyes tightly. Mu Bingyun turned around and closed her eyes and said, "Put on your clothes first."
"~! @#￥%..." Yun Che then realized that he was completely naked. His previous clothes had turned into ice powder under the power of the Jade Falling Ice Soul Pill, leaving not even a piece of cloth. He quickly grabbed a set of clothes from the Sky Poison Pearl and put them on in a rather flustered manner.
“Yun Che! You big bastard! You dirty bastard! You actually… actually tarnished the eyes of our Master! Ah—unforgivable!”
“I didn’t mean it.” Yun Che stole a glance at Mu Bingyun and quietly defended himself, “The Palace Master didn’t say anything. But you… took advantage of me and even had the nerve to yell at me.”
“Who… who took advantage of you! It was you who obviously defamed the eyes of our master and me!” Mu Xiaolan was so angry that her teeth were bared and her claws were waving. If Mu Bingyun hadn’t been by her side, she would have wanted to go up and fight Yun Che to the death.
“Alright, Xiaolan.” Mu Bingyun whispered, “Yun Che, don’t tell anyone about the fact that you took the Jade Falling Ice Soul Pill. Using the power of the drug to forcibly increase your profound strength, the greater the increase, the greater the hidden dangers will be, you must stabilize it as soon as possible. For the next period of time, try to cultivate as peacefully as possible.”
“Okay.” Yun Che nodded.
"The Star-Picking Stone that Mu Sushan gave you can be a good aid in your cultivation. You will know once you give it a try. If there is anything you cannot decide, you can try to send a message to me. Try not to make rash decisions... Xiaolan, let's go."
After walking out of the training room, Mu Bingyun let out a light sigh. She looked ahead with a distant gaze, wondering what she was thinking.
“Master, didn’t you already get Yun Che the dimensional stone that could send him back to the Profound Sky Continent? Why didn’t you tell him about this?” Mu Xiaolan asked in confusion.
Mu Bingyun shook her head. “He took the Jade Falling Ice Soul Pill despite the great risk, just to increase his profound strength as much as possible in a short period of time, hoping to have the qualifications to enter the Eternal Heaven Realm in thirty months. He is so determined to find that person that he has already disregarded his own life. There is absolutely no way he will return to the Profound Sky Continent like this. Let’s return that Dimensional Stone to the First Palace.”
"But, reaching the Divine Tribulation Realm in thirty months is simply...impossible to achieve no matter what."
"Instead of forcibly breaking his fantasy, it is better to follow his obsession." Mu Bingyun said slowly: "After all, he has not yet entered the divine way, and does not know the difficulty of divine way cultivation. After a while, when he truly realizes that it is impossible, perhaps he will change his mind."
"Xiao Lan," Mu Bingyun turned sideways and looked at the only disciple who had been with him for the past few years. "Over the years, because you were trapped by the flame poison, I was unable to teach you properly. Instead, you took care of me. Now I am safe and sound. From today on, I will focus more on your cultivation, and I will not accept other disciples within a hundred years. I hope you will not blame me for being strict then."
Mu Xiaolan opened her lips, tears welled up in an instant, and she bowed down in a panic: "It is an honor for Xiaolan to meet Master and to always be by Master's side. As long as Master doesn't despise me, Xiaolan is willing to serve Master for the rest of my life..."
“Silly child.” Mu Bingyun smiled and shook her head, helping Mu Xiaolan up. “You are a girl, and a little princess of the Situ family. You will eventually get married and inherit the family business. How can your teacher keep you by his side forever?”
"Master Situ sent you to the Ice Phoenix Realm in order not to bury your extraordinary talent. Your teacher has delayed you over the years." Mu Bingyun looked towards the north and whispered, "The Profound God Conference is approaching, and the Great Realm King has decided to select his own disciples in advance. The Heavenly Nether Frost Pond will definitely be used at that time. Your profound strength has not yet reached the Soul Realm, so it is too difficult for you to withstand the cold there, but it is an extremely rare opportunity after all. It would be a pity if you miss it. So during this period of time, work hard for it."
