"The might of this profound ice is truly not inferior to an Otherworldly Flame…"
Feeling Xiao Yi's aura constantly rising at this moment, Xiao Xuan couldn't help but murmur softly.
Because in cultivation, the higher the Realm, the more difficult it becomes to improve. Although the Dou Zun Realm is not considered high, strictly speaking, it is not easy to achieve further improvement after reaching the Dou Zun Realm.
Therefore, after Xiao Yi refined the Ten Great profound ice, his Realm was able to directly ascend from Four-Star Dou Zun.
From this, it is evident that the energy contained within the Ten Great profound ice is also extremely vast.
Xiao Yi's strength at this moment was akin to the improvement he gained when he replaced his Dou Di Bloodline before.
If Xiao Yi did not control it, it would become an obstacle to his continued growth in the future.
But regarding this point, Xiao Xuan was still at ease.
Because he firmly believed that Xiao Yi had a sense of moderation and understood the pros and cons involved.
While improving strength through external forces might feel good for a while, for long-term development, it still needed to be controlled.
So, when Xiao Yi's aura surged from Four-Star Dou Zun to Peak Eight-Star Dou Zun, the speed of his aura's ascent also slowed down.
This was not because the Ten Great profound ice could only go so far, but because Xiao Yi was deliberately restraining that power!
Feeling Xiao Yi deliberately suppressing his power, Xiao Xuan nodded in satisfaction.
The Heavenly Cold Demon Saint beside him also nodded in satisfaction:
"This Little Fellow's talent is outstanding, and his Heart-Nature is so steady."
"Facing power that could help him Breakthrough to at least the Saint-Grade level, he can still resist the temptation; it is truly rare and commendable."
However, the power of the Ten Great profound ice was too strong, even with Xiao Yi's forceful suppression… it still allowed his Realm to reach the Nine-Star Dou Zun level.
"Nine-Star Dou Zun…"
"No, I still need to forcefully control it…"
Xiao Yi's consciousness was very clear at this moment, and he murmured inwardly.
At the same time, the Emperor-level Cultivation Technique [Origin Primordial Myriad Transformation Method] within Xiao Yi's Physical Body was also operating frantically!
Under Xiao Yi's control, the vast power brought by the Ten Great profound ice was temporarily suppressed and stored within Xiao Yi's Physical Body.
After an unknown period, accompanied by Xiao Yi slowly exhaling a breath of Cold Ice Dou Qi from the corner of his mouth, Xiao Yi, who had been meditating for a long time, finally slowly opened his eyes!
At this moment, as Xiao Yi opened his eyes, streaks of extreme cold Qi also flowed from his eye sockets.
At this moment, besides the initial fire-attribute Dou Qi, Xiao Yi's Physical Body now also possessed lightning-attribute Dou Qi, and the Cold Ice Dou Qi brought about by absorbing the profound ice!
After all, due to the existence of an Emperor-level Cultivation Technique like the Origin Primordial Myriad Transformation Method, the three different attributes of Dou Qi not only did not conflict within Xiao Yi's Physical Body… but also allowed Xiao Yi to use them as he wished.
Xiao Yi slowly opened his eyes and saw the Heavenly Cold Demon Saint and Xiao Xuan both guarding him in their Soul forms.
He immediately got up and thanked them.
And the Heavenly Cold Demon Saint smiled slightly: "Little Fellow…"
"It is truly rare that you could resist the temptation of this power."
"You are indeed worthy of being the inheritor I have chosen."
Xiao Yi smiled slightly, cupped his hands, and said:
"Senior, you flatter me."
"This Junior knows that with my current Physical Body, being able to refine a portion of the profound ice's power and reach Nine-Star Dou Zun is already very good."
"If I were to disregard everything and completely absorb the profound ice's power, although it could allow this Junior to immediately advance to the Dou Sheng Realm that others dream of…"
"But that would also lead to my Dou Qi being unstable, my Foundation being shaky, and it would be very difficult to continue improving in the future."
"But Senior, rest assured, this Junior will diligently Cultivate and soon enable my Physical Body to control the full power of the profound ice!"
"When this Junior's name spreads across the Fighting Qi Continent, I will definitely let the world know of your name, Heavenly Cold Demon Saint!"
Upon hearing this, the Heavenly Cold Demon Saint nodded gently and said:
"Little Fellow…"
"I am merely a remnant Soul now, and it is fate that I could wait for you."
"My Heavenly Cold Legacy is not limited to just these Ten Great profound ice."
After the Heavenly Cold Demon Saint finished speaking, he lightly tapped his glabella, and a blue light illuminated his fingertip!
Then, under the guidance of a power, that blue light came to Xiao Yi's glabella… and entered Xiao Yi's Soul.
Then the Heavenly Cold Demon Saint spoke again:
"This Soul imprint contains the three Heaven Rank Dou Skill I created back then."
"Heaven Rank Dou Skill, I presume you are not lacking, after all, you have a supreme expert behind you to guard your Dao, but it's always good to have more Dou Technique."
After the Heavenly Cold Demon Saint finished speaking, his gaze also fell upon Xiao Xuan!
Although the Heavenly Cold Demon Saint was a powerhouse from ancient times, from the aura of Xiao Xuan's Emperor Realm Soul, the Heavenly Cold Demon Saint could easily deduce that Xiao Xuan was at least a Peak Nine-Star Dou Sheng supreme expert during his lifetime.
And Heaven Rank Dou Skill, for a powerhouse of this level, was not a rare item.
But since he had chosen Xiao Yi as his inheritor, the Heavenly Cold Demon Saint naturally had to pass everything on to Xiao Yi.
And upon hearing this, Xiao Yi immediately cupped his hands in thanks again:
"Thank you, Senior…"
And as that Soul imprint entered Xiao Yi's Physical Body… the three Heaven Rank Dou Skill mentioned by the Heavenly Cold Demon Saint clearly appeared within Xiao Yi's Soul.
Heaven Rank Intermediate Rank: Heavenly Cold Finger!
Heaven Rank Intermediate Rank: Heavenly Cold Palm!
Heaven Rank High Rank: Heavenly Cold Prison Sealing Art!
At this moment, Xiao Yi had already mastered five Heaven Rank Dou Skill plus one Emperor-Grade Battle Skill!
Coupled with his Nine-Star Dou Zun cultivation, although above Nine-Star Dou Zun and below Half-Saint, there are still Realms like One-Turn to Nine-Turn Dou Zun… Xiao Yi, with his numerous Dou Technique trump cards, was already unrivaled below Half-Saint.
He could be called the number one person below a Saint!
And at this moment, the Heavenly Cold Demon Saint's remnant Soul also flickered again:
"The mission has been accomplished…"
"I hope my Legacy will not lose its brilliance and prestige with the departure of my remnant Soul."
"Young man, your path is still very long; I hope you can walk it well."
As the Heavenly Cold Demon Saint's voice fell, Xiao Yi could clearly sense that the aura of the Heavenly Cold Demon Saint's remnant Soul was rapidly weakening at this moment.
This was a sign that it was about to dissipate.
Seeing this, Xiao Yi cupped his hands again and said:
"Senior, rest assured…"
"This continent will definitely remember the name of the Heavenly Cold Demon Saint again!"
"Senior, farewell…"
The Heavenly Cold Demon Saint nodded upon hearing this.
"Hahahahahahaha…"
The Heavenly Cold Demon Saint let out one last hearty laugh, and with that clear laughter… the Heavenly Cold Demon Saint's remnant Soul, having lost the power of the Ten Great profound ice, finally could not continue to exist in the world.
Amidst the laughter, it gradually transformed into streaks of cold Qi and dissipated on the spot.
"Dou Di, what a temptation…"
"This Heavenly Cold Demon Saint was also born in the wrong era; if it had been earlier, perhaps the outcome would have been different…"
Xiao Xuan sighed softly, speaking of the Heavenly Cold Demon Saint, but in fact, also speaking of himself.
And with the dissipation of the Heavenly Cold Demon Saint's remnant Soul, the space here also began to collapse.
