"What kind of item is it, Master?" Lynne grew curious after the Divine Ice Phoenix Empress ntioned it.
However, the Divine Ice Phoenix Empress didn't divulge everything to her disciple. Or rather, she didn't understand what it was either.
The Divine Ice Phoenix Empress only knew there was a great power slumbering deep within the Extre Misty Forest. Furthermore, it was a power that matched their elents.
But apart from that, the Divine Ice Phoenix Empress had no other information.
'You'll understand once you find it. All I can say is that this item will greatly increase your cultivation and lifespan,' the Divine Ice Phoenix Empress stated.
"Oh… I understand, Master," Lynne replied.
Since her master had already said as such, it ans that her master wouldn't divulge further information to her.
Her Master seemingly knows everything but, at the sa ti, never explains everything to her. It might be her Master's way of training her critical thinking. Nevertheless, she had grown accustod to it.
"Even Transcendents have been wary of Extre Misty Forest in the past several hundred years. How should I deal with the vengeful spirits if I run into a powerful one, Master?" Lynne inquired.
'You should understand the nature of the True Permafrost Divine Art by now. This skill doesn't just have absolute defense; its offensive is equally fearso—especially against spiritual beings," the Divine Ice Phoenix Empress ntioned.
'Furthermore, you're already at the peak of Preliminary Accession-stage Transcendent Realm. It wouldn't be a problem for you to defeat Early Rank 2 Transcendent-level vengeful spirits with the True Permafrost Divine Art.'
'And even if you can't defeat Mid Rank 2 Transcendent-level vengeful spirits, you can still seal their movents with it,' the Divine Ice Phoenix Empress added.
'What if we run into sothing even stronger than that, Master?' Lynne inquired further. She did not feel reassured at all.
She was rather weak-minded against things like ghosts. The distant howls of Extre Misty Forest were already giving her goosebumps.
'If we run into a situation that you cannot overco on your own, I will take over and deal with it. However, this cos at the cost of reducing your lifespan even further. Thus, unless the situation requires it, we will only use this as a last resort," said the Divine Ice Phoenix Empress.
'Don't depend on your master, child. Instead, pretend I don't exist and learn to resolve everyone on your own. That is the only way you can grow strong in both mind and body. I have seen geniuses rise and fall. They all had high cultivation, but their hearts were weak.'
'Don't be like them,' the Divine Ice Phoenix Empress lectured seriously.
Lynne was not her first disciple, and she wouldn't be her last either. But regardless of how many disciples she had, she had continuously poured all her effects into nurturing them.
Unfortunately, they could never overco their short lifespans.
'I understand, Master,' Lynne engraved the divine Ice Phoenix Empress's word in her heart. She could feel her Master's sincerity in teaching her.
After stabilizing her ntal state, Lynne decisively ventured deeper into the misty forest. She followed the direction pointed out by her master.
Yiiii—!
Shortly after Lynne only advanced a few dozen yards, shrill cries echoed, and dead leaves rustled throughout the forest as if they were coming to life.
Lynne imdiately knew the vengeful spirits had already discovered her presence.
However, she could not tell how close or far away they were. She couldn't even tell how many she had attracted nor their strengths.
The extre mist in the forest gave her poor visibility.
Nevertheless, Lynne quickly recalled her Master's teachings and released her ice power, scattering countless chilling ice particles into the area and forming an ice domain.
This allowed her to sense the number of her enemies that enter her domain and slow them down at the sa ti.
The True Permafrost Divine Art was a versatile skill that could not only attack and defend, but also sense enemies and mask her presence. There was also a movent skill included as well.
Although Lynne was a bit slow on the idea, she eventually covered herself in ice power and masked her presence.
Yiii—!
The vengeful spirits imdiately made piercing screams, sounding much closer than before. They were furious when Lynne's signs of life disappeared from their senses.
Nevertheless, they had already discovered her general location earlier.
Eventually, several Transcendent-level vengeful spirits entered Lynne's domain. The mont she sensed their numbers were also the mont her domain attacked them.
The nurous ice particles contacted the vengeful spirits' seemingly intangible bodies before they erupted with terrifying coldness.
Yiiiiiiii—!
The vengeful spirits howled painfully. The level of pain inflicted on them didn't just startle them; it caused them fear.
They retreated, but unfortunately, the vengeful spirits had advanced too quickly. Thus, they were already deep within Lynne's domain, which was no different from a field of floating landmines that covered both ground and air.
The ice power of the True Permafrost Divine Art didn't just freeze the surface of their spiritual bodies; it transford their spiritual bodies into ice!
As such, the vengeful spirits didn't just feel ordinary pain. No, they felt pain that reached the very core of their beings!
Afterward, the vengeful spirits' weightless bodies gained mass due to the ice and dropped to the ground. Those that tried to resist their own increased weight had their frozen parts broken away from their bodies.
Yiii—! Yiii—!
The vengeful spirits issued multiple shorter piercing howls. Even though Lynne didn't know what they were saying, she understood that they felt fear and desperation.
Lynne continued her advancent and spotted the frozen vengeful spirits by her feet.
"Only Early Rank 1 Transcendent-level vengeful spirits, huh? They are so much weaker than I anticipated, Master," Lynne comnted.
Her blue pupils flickered, and the frozen vengeful spirits fragnted into countless smaller ice shards in the next mont.
They were died without being able to resist.
'I already ntioned that you can battle vengeful spirits above your level.. Did you think vengeful spirits below your level will stand a single chance?' the Divine Ice Phoenix Empress remarked.
