The general formula of Broken Moon Brushing Shadow is mysterious and obscure, containing tens of thousands of mysteries and changes. The way its profound energy circulates is even more complex and changeable... and it can only be activated by the profound power of ice. If it is not for the profound power of ice, there is no possibility of success.
Regardless of the profound power required or the way it was operated, it was much more complex and demanding than the Star God Fragment... and the difficulty of cultivation was several times higher.
This was the holy temple of the Ice Phoenix Realm, a sacred place that no outsider would ever approach. Here, Yun Che could completely concentrate on his work. After the initial difficulties, he practiced hard for two hours without stopping. His Broken Moon Shadow had already transformed from its embryonic form to a small entry point. It only took him three breaths to activate a teleportation. The speed of the teleportation was much faster than before, but it would still leave a clear ice shadow.
After trying dozens of times, he would close his eyes and comprehend the mystery and changes of the general formula again. With his terrifying comprehension and concentration, he would have new insights almost every time, and every time he tried again, he would make exceptionally remarkable progress.
The speed of the attack became faster and faster, and the remaining ice shadow became fainter and fainter.
This kind of sudden enlightenment is often something that ordinary profound practitioners can only encounter by chance. Some extremely advanced and complex profound formulas often require decades, hundreds of years, or even thousands of years of contemplation before a flash of enlightenment can occur at a certain moment...
As for Yun Che, he would only close his eyes and concentrate for an average of a quarter of an hour or two each time before he would gain new insights.
This was the case with the Bingyi Divine Art, the Yun Family’s Ziyun Art, and the Golden Crow’s Record of the Burning World… and now when practicing Broken Moon Shadow, it is still the same.
Four hours later, a glacial figure appeared in the temple, silently watching Yun Che who was concentrating on his cultivation.
Four hours was undoubtedly only an extremely short period of time for cultivation, but in his sight, Yun Che's repeated performances of Broken Moon Brushing Shadow were several times more complete than four hours ago. Although it was still only a prototype and could not be used in actual combat, if such amazing progress could be maintained, it was very likely that within a month, he would achieve some success and reach the initial "shadowless" realm.
And this process... doesn't seem to require her to teach at all.
Another "Broken Moon Brushing Shadow" was completed. This time, not only was the speed extremely fast, but there was almost no icy afterimage. However, it was still a world of difference compared to what Mu Xuanyin had demonstrated before.
Yun Che breathed a sigh of relief. Suddenly, his eyes blurred and he could clearly see Mu Xuanyin’s figure. He immediately stepped forward: “Master!”
“Follow me.” Mu Xuanyin turned around.
Yun Che hesitated for a moment, about to say something, and followed.
But Mu Xuanyin suddenly stopped at this moment and asked: "Do you have something to say?"
Yun Che also stopped, quickly organizing his words in his mind, and said seriously: “Master, I know very well that the way of cultivating the profound should be gradual and orderly, and it is most taboo to rush for success. Moreover, the progress of profound skills is sometimes more important than profound strength, but…”
“Do you want to ask if there is any method that can help you reach the Divine Tribulation Realm within two years?” Mu Xuanyin’s eyebrows slightly frowned.
“Yes!” Yun Che nodded. “Master… should have known the reason why I followed Senior Bingyun to the Snow Song Realm. This matter is extremely important to me. If I can enter the Divine Tribulation Realm before the Profound God Convention and obtain the qualifications to enter the Eternal Heaven Realm, even if it is very hard… even if I have to pay a great price, I will definitely be able to bear it. I hope Master will help me.”
Although the mysterious Broken Moon Whispering Shadow aroused his great interest, whether he could cultivate Broken Moon Whispering Shadow was not that important to him. Because he belonged to the Blue Pole Star, not the God Realm. After achieving his wish, he would leave the God Realm forever and return to the Blue Pole Star... and his greatest desire in the God Realm was to see Jasmine.
And in order to see Jasmine… what he needed most was profound strength, not the Ice Phoenix God-conferring Canon or Broken Moon Shadow.
He forced himself to take Mu Xuanyin as his master, and restrained his temper, behaving properly in front of her. This was not because he coveted the Ice Phoenix bloodline, profound skills, or the status of a direct disciple. Instead, in this Snow Song Realm, if there was really someone who could help him achieve the Divine Tribulation Realm before the Profound God Convention… it could only be Mu Xuanyin.
Mu Xuanyin turned around slowly, her pair of icy eyes only had a cold light that seemed to have never changed: "You are only just entering the Divine Origin Realm now. It is not that easy to break through to the Divine Tribulation Realm in two years!"
“…” Mu Xuanyin’s words not only did not make Yun Che dejected, but instead shocked him.
Because what she said was "It's not that easy", not "It's impossible"!
This means...she might really have some special method!
“Master, no matter what method, as long as there is a glimmer of possibility… I am willing to try anything!” Yun Che did not avoid Mu Xuanyin’s gaze and said firmly.
“Is she really that important to you?” Mu Xuanyin asked coldly.
“Yes.” Yun Che nodded without any hesitation.
“…Okay.” Mu Xuanyin nodded slowly, but the color in her icy eyes did not change at all: “Since you are so impatient, then I can only help you.”
While Yun Che was stunned, a blue light suddenly appeared in front of Mu Xuanyin: "Huanzhi, I allow you to temporarily use the Holy Temple Teleportation Array. Within a hundred breaths, let Feixue come to the Holy Temple to see me!"
Mu Xuanyin's voice fell, and the blue light dissipated. Yun Che was stunned and asked: "Mu Feixue?"
"If you want to cross the two great realms of the Divine Path in just two years, unless you can enter the Eternal Heaven Pearl, it is impossible to do it no matter how high your talent is or how extreme your cultivation is. Although the Snow Song Realm has countless rare elixirs and magical medicines, it is definitely impossible to reach the sky in one step."
Mu Xuanyin changed the subject slightly: “But our Ice Phoenix Divine Sect can indeed achieve a shortcut because of the Ice Phoenix Divine Canon!”
“Master, you…the ‘shortcut’ you mentioned…could it be…is…is…” Yun Che began to stutter.
“Do you know why most of the women in our Divine Ice Phoenix Sect who have the highest talent, cultivation, and status are single, and some never marry in their entire lives?” Mu Xuanyin asked in return.
"...I have heard from you that if a woman with the blood of the Ice Phoenix loses her Yuan Yin, her cultivation and progress in profound skills will slow down and will be far inferior to before. In addition, the higher the talent and cultivation, the colder the temperament, so..."
Yun Che answered in a low voice. He had heard this from Mu Xiaolan. Mu Bingyun had been single for thousands of years, and Mu Xuanyin was even older than ten thousand years… cough, and Mu Xiaolan had said that Mu Feixue, who had the direct bloodline of the Ice Phoenix and was extremely talented, would probably remain single for life like Mu Bingyun.
But now…
“Humph, so you already knew.” Mu Xuanyin’s beautiful face was filled with a coldness that could freeze the ocean. “But this is only half the reason.”
"Although the way of dual cultivation is despised by some so-called upright profound practitioners who are hypocritical, it is definitely not an evil way. If they can be compatible enough, the yin and yang will blend and complement each other, which will be of great benefit to the cultivation of both parties' profound strength and profound skills. But the ice phoenix bloodline inherited by our Ice Phoenix Divine Sect is an extremely yin bloodline, and the Ice Phoenix God-conferring Canon we practice is also an extremely cold profound skill, which will extremely reject external yang energy, and it is absolutely impossible to achieve the fusion and coexistence of yin and yang. Therefore, if yin and yang are combined, not only will the primordial yin be lost forever, but each time only the man will benefit."
Yun Che: “…”
"And precisely because of the relationship between the Ice Phoenix bloodline and the Ice Phoenix God-conferring Canon, the vitality of an Ice Phoenix woman is far greater than that of other women, and it contains an extremely pure Ice Phoenix aura. If a man obtains it, it can greatly improve his profound strength cultivation and strengthen his icy physique."
"So, do you understand?"
Yun Che opened his mouth, and after a long while, he said with some difficulty: “Is this the shortcut that Master mentioned? Appointing Mu Feixue as my disciple’s dual cultivation partner is also… for…”
“Right!” Mu Xuanyin frowned slightly at Yun Che’s reaction: “If you want to break through to the Divine Tribulation Realm in just two years, grabbing the Ice Phoenix Essence Yin is the most likely shortcut to achieve it!”
“Enough… Yuan Yin…” The corners of Yun Che’s mouth twitched slightly. He shook his head, and for some unknown reason, he asked in a daze, “Then… approximately how much Ice Phoenix Yuan Yin is needed to reach the Divine Tribulation Realm?”
Mu Xuanyin was silent for a while, then said calmly: "Among the Ice Phoenix disciples of this generation, Feixue possesses the best Ice Phoenix Yuanyin. If all of them were like Feixue, perhaps a thousand would be enough."
“One… one thousand!?” Yun Che opened his mouth and almost bit his tongue.
Mu Xuanyin was not moved by Yun Che’s reaction. “But there is only one Mu Feixue, and there is no one in the younger generation who can compare with her. If we choose from the Divine Temple, the Ice Phoenix Palace, and the major Ice Phoenix branches, we need at least 3,000 female Ice Phoenix disciples who have preserved their Yuan Yin. Humph, although the possibility is less than 10%, there should be no better way than this.”
Three...three thousand! ? ?
“~!@#￥%…” Yun Che’s scalp felt numb and his legs felt weak: “Too… too much…”
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Yun Che suddenly woke up and shook his head with all his strength: “No, this method, disciple… cannot accept it.”
“Unacceptable?!” Mu Xuanyin’s brows suddenly sank: “Why?”
The slight change in Mu Xuanyin’s eyes caused the atmosphere to change suddenly. A chill instantly rushed from the soles of Yun Che’s feet to the top of his head. Yun Che had not expected that his refusal would lead to such a violent reaction from Mu Xuanyin. He could only bite the bullet and say, “For the sake of my disciple’s profound strength improvement, so many of my fellow sisters’ talents will be damaged… and their innocence will also be sacrificed. I… cannot do it.”
“Sacrifice? Humph!” Mu Xuanyin said coldly, “You are my personal disciple. It is their honor to be chosen! How can you sacrifice me?”
Yun Che never dreamed that the only shortcut Mu Xuanyin was looking for for him would be this way. Two years... Three thousand Ice Phoenix Yin essence...
I can't imagine what the situation will be like in the next two years...
Not to mention that the probability was less than 10%. Even if he could really achieve the Divine Tribulation Realm within two years... what difference would that make him different from a demon who used Yin to replenish Yang! It would be fine if his reputation in the Snow Song Realm would be ruined, but if the Little Demon Queen, Xue'er, and the others knew...
Moreover, Mu Feixue...
“No,” Yun Che still shook his head: “Disciple still can’t do it. If it is extreme training, no matter how cruel it is, disciple can bear it. But, to use so many sisters and brothers, disciple…”
“Use?” Mu Xuanyin snorted disdainfully: “You saved Bingyun’s life, wasn’t it to use her to come to the Snow Song Realm? You suddenly changed your main forces in the Dark Frost Sky Lake and tried your best to worship me as your master, wasn’t it to use me to help you break through the Divine Tribulation Realm?”
“…” Yun Che opened his mouth, speechless.
“Do you know that in the Snow Song Realm, a woman with the Ice Phoenix Yin Essence is someone that even an emperor would never dare to dream of getting his hands on. But your master has allowed you to choose any one you want, and no one will disobey! Not only is this the most likely way for you to reach the Divine Tribulation Realm, it is also a blessing that others would never be able to hope for in a lifetime. Yet you refuse!?”
"Hmph, don't think that I don't know. You are less than half a century old, but you already have several wives in the lower world. Bingyun also told me that you are unbridled and never suppress your desires. In the Bingyun Palace she founded, as the Palace Master, you committed blasphemous acts against the women in the palace in broad daylight. Now you pretend to be a saint in front of me!?"
“!@#￥%…” Yun Che was dumbfounded… Oh my god! Why did Mu Bingyun tell her everything…
"Disciple...disciple and they are...both of us are in love with each other, and..."
Just at this moment, a cold breeze slowly approached, and Mu Feixue, dressed in snow, came with snow.
Her arrival made it seem as if a beautiful and icy snow-heart ice lotus suddenly bloomed in the temple.
"Feixue greets the Sect Master."
She bowed gracefully beside Mu Xuanyin, but did not even glance at Yun Che, as if he did not exist in the entire world.
"Feixue, you're here just in time."
Mu Xuanyin responded to Mu Feixue, but her eyes never left Yun Che. Her voice suddenly slowed down at this moment... and it was incomparably gentle: "Che'er, today is only your first day as a disciple, and you dare not listen to your master like this."
"This is not up to you!!"
