Without Huang Yiyun, Su Mu wouldn't have recklessly descended here. Without the conflict between her fiery and cold energies, he would never have achieved such an effect. To call her his Lucky Star was no exaggeration.
As the vital energy within his Sword Vein grew more abundant, the tornt of ice and fire beca a form of enjoynt for Su Mu. As long as it could double his strength, even the greatest pain was a pleasure!
"Thirty drops of essence fluid!"
"I'm about to break through again!"
In just half a day, another ten drops of essence fluid had condensed, the surging montum scattering the surrounding cold air!
The fourth level of the Fate Palace Realm!
"Thrilling!" Su Mu felt exhilarated after breaking through two realms in succession, even more so than when he had advanced through the seventh-grade Fate Palace.
This was not just a matter of surpassing speed. The Sword Vein was six tis that of the seventh-grade Fate Palace, and the vital energy required to break through a realm was far more than six tis the previous amount!
Considering the difficulty of condensing essence fluid, advancing a realm was now more than ten tis harder than before. Yet, he was able to break through continuously—how could he not be thrilled?
Likewise, his foundation was now more than ten tis more solid than before, so he had no fear of instability despite the rapid progression!
"Yiyun's condition has improved."
Now that no more fiery energy could be drawn from Huang Yiyun's body, Su Mu reluctantly ceased the extraction. If he continued, she might not die from the fiery demon within but from the cold he imposed.
Huang Yiyun had not yet awakened, but her condition had stabilized. He picked her up and placed her at a distance, then continued to sit cross-legged in front of the Ice Spirit Essence to cultivate.
Even without the fiery energy, the extre cold air could still accelerate his cultivation. With the Martial House recruitnt approaching, he couldn't miss out on this excellent opportunity.
"Kid, why are you in such a hurry to summon ? Don't you know it costs a great deal of strength to wake up each ti?" The Mad Immortal Emperor's languid voice suddenly rang out, leaving Su Mu speechless. Now that he didn't need him, the Mad Immortal Emperor had awakened.
"Eh? Kid, you've struck it rich? You've switched two realms just like that?" Before Su Mu could speak, the Mad Immortal Emperor exclaid in surprise.
Su Mu couldn't help but smile slightly; it wasn't often that he could shock the Mad Immortal Emperor.
After recounting the process to the Mad Immortal Emperor, Su Mu asked if he knew what cultivation technique Huang Yiyun practiced and if there was a way to effectively reduce the chances of her succumbing to demonic possession in the future.
"So that's how it is, kid. You're quite fortunate to have encountered such a good opportunity in this godforsaken place," the Mad Immortal Emperor remarked. It was indeed lucky to co across such a chance here.
"Do you think I know everything? I can't directly investigate her condition—I don't know!" the Mad Immortal Emperor replied irritably, and Su Mu could almost picture him rolling his eyes.
"But you must know sothing, right? Senior, you used to kill even Immortal Emperors, and they were nothing in your eyes. Isn't this matter trivial for you?"
"Heh, you sure know how to flatter," the Mad Immortal Emperor scoffed disdainfully, and Su Mu pursed his lips. Was this flattery to your liking or not?
"Fine, since you put it that way, I'll make an effort to think about it."
Hearing the Mad Immortal Emperor's words, Su Mu pursed his lips. See, even soone capable of killing an Immortal Emperor couldn't escape convention.
"Hmm... That girl must have practiced so kind of hasty fire-based cultivation technique. I can't be sure which one specifically, but I'm certain that the technique she practiced is top-notch, capable of maximizing her cultivation speed and boosting her strength!"
Su Mu nodded. He had witnessed how Huang Yiyun had injured the Fourth Elder with a single sword strike—she was indeed formidable.
"However, without restraint, she's only playing with fire and risking self-destruction!"
"Kid, you can save her for a mont, but not for a lifeti. She can't even switch cultivation techniques now. What's most important is finding her an ice-based Heart thod. With the two complenting each other, not only will she avoid life-threatening dangers, but she can also reach new heights!"
"Senior, can you teach an ice-based Heart thod?" Su Mu's eyes lit up as he eagerly asked.
"You wish. I only have so much spiritual strength left. Do you want to disappear?" the Mad Immortal Emperor retorted irritably, and Su Mu's mouth twitched. Was it that serious for just one Heart thod?
But thinking about it, the Mad Immortal Emperor was now just a remnant soul. Whether he could recall it was one thing; even if he could, it would consu a lot of spiritual strength. Otherwise, why would he have fallen into a deep slumber after imparting the Chaos Genesis Record to Su Mu?
"Kid, this is sothing you have to do on your own. Aren't there many cold-natured spiritual plants where you are? Just boil them all into a dicinal solution for her to take regularly."
"Also, you can take the solution yourself to greatly increase your cultivation speed."
Su Mu nodded, and the Mad Immortal Emperor continued, "However, this isn't a long-term solution. You must quickly open a second Hidden Vein. On the first level of the Buddha Tower, there's an Ice Sovereign. If you devour his Divine Soul, you'll obtain an ice-based Heart thod!"
"Ice Sovereign." Su Mu's gaze was resolute. This was not just for Huang Yiyun, but for himself as well!
"There's also a Fire Sovereign on the first level. If you devour him too, with the fusion of ice and fire, your strength will greatly increase!" The Mad Immortal Emperor's tone suddenly beca serious. Fusing the powers of the two Heavenly Sovereigns would be the mont for Su Mu's strength to explode!
"Ice and fire powers!" Su Mu was heartily moved after hearing this. He had already experienced the formidable power of the ice-fire convergence today, which brought terrifying increases to both cultivation and strength!
"I can't hold on any longer. In the future, rember to find more soul-restoring herbs or elixirs, or you really won't be able to wake up next ti." The Mad Immortal Emperor's voice suddenly beca very weary, and after speaking, he fell silent.
"Soul-restoring herbs and elixirs." A determined light flashed in Su Mu's eyes, deeply etched in his heart.
He continued to cultivate in front of the Ice Spirit Essence, waiting for Huang Yiyun to awaken.
One day later.
"Cough cough..."
Huang Yiyun awoke amidst a bout of dry coughs, the coughing straining her internal organs and causing intense pain throughout her body.
"Am I, am I not dead?" She struggled to open her eyes and saw a field of dark orchids before her, her eyes filled with confusion.
"Where is this?"
"Yiyun, how do you feel now?" Su Mu's voice sounded beside her ear. Huang Yiyun turned to look and saw Su Mu approaching, looking at her with concern.
Seeing Su Mu, Huang Yiyun's expression beca complicated. She knew she had been saved by Su Mu once again.
"Thank you." She sat up with difficulty and expressed her gratitude. Beyond that, she didn't know what else to say.
Su Mu shook his head nonchalantly, helped Huang Yiyun to sit properly, and then turned to look at the plants all around.
"The cultivation technique you practice is too extre. Continuing this way will only lead to self-destruction."
Huang Yiyun remained silent, knowing this was true, but she had no other choice.
"Don't worry, I've found a solution." Su Mu spoke, and Huang Yiyun suddenly looked up at him, her eyes filled with disbelief.
"You, what did you say?"
