The Ice Phoenix That Returned to an Egg, a Small Accident at Hatching

In the cultivation room, Han Li watched as Shui Bing'er sat down.

"After breaking it into pieces, swallow it one by one, and it's best to chew it all thoroughly so that the medicinal effects can be more easily exerted. Don't worry, its energy is very gentle and will not burden your body. As for the ice element energy, leave it to me."

Han Li gave her one last instruction, indicating that she could begin.

Only the two of them were there. Azure Luan and Broad Hill were in the outer courtyard and hadn't come. This was mainly because Shui Bing'er's Martial Soul was inherently unstable, and they didn't have the ability to control the elements, so they didn't want to affect her Martial Soul Evolution.

Shui Bing'er did not answer, but instead followed Han Li's instructions, opened the box, and slowly put the Nine Rank Purple Ganoderma into her mouth.

Only after she had finished eating did she slowly enter a meditative state.

As soon as her Soul Power was activated, the phantom of her Martial Soul manifested above her head.

Unlike before, the Ice Phoenix seemed more solid now, giving the impression of poised to take flight.

Then, after circling around her head a few times, the Ice Phoenix condensed into a giant ice-blue egg, which floated quietly above her head.

During this process, Han Li was not idle either. He took the initiative to mobilize the ice element in the cultivation room, enveloping Shui Bing'er and monitoring her changes at all times.

One hour, two hours, time quietly slipped by.

After about two and a half hours, Han Li could sense that the medicinal power in Shui Bing'er's body had been basically digested, and the ice-blue giant egg above her head finally began to move.

The illusory giant egg suddenly made a "crack" sound, and an even stronger light emanated from it. Moreover, as it hatched, the Ice Phoenix inside began to actively absorb the cold air from the outside world to strengthen itself.

Centered on the giant egg above Shui Bing'er's head, a vortex of cold air was generated in the not-so-small training room, and the ice elements in the Simulated Environment began to be continuously drawn out by it.

Han Li initially cooperated with it in mobilizing the ice element, until a piece of ice-attribute ore in his Simulated Environment shattered, at which point he sensed something was wrong.

Shui Bing'er's Martial Soul Evolution is a money pit; he can't just watch the Simulated Environment be destroyed like this.

Although the item isn't particularly valuable to him now, it's quite meaningful because it was created by Broad Hill after dismantling his Simulated Environment.

Seeing that the nearby ice element was almost depleted, he did not hesitate and took the initiative to convert his own Soul Power into ice element and release it towards Shui Bing'er.

He did have other things to replenish his ice element, namely the Extreme Frozen Cold Spring from the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and Fire in the jade bottle on his wrist, but considering the signs of his corruption at the time, he chose to use his own Soul Power instead.

With him acting as a human filter, it's as safe as it gets.

With his Soul Power as a supplement, the speed at which the giant Martial Soul egg on Shui Bing'er's head hatched suddenly increased significantly, and cracking sounds began to ring out continuously.

Finally, when Han Li's Soul Power was nearly half depleted, the giant egg above her head was covered with countless cracks, almost completely absorbing the ice elements from the outside world.

Phoenixes soar together, their cries resounding.

Han Li heard the phoenix's cry for the first time; it was loud and clear, but in this enclosed room, his eardrums didn't feel very comfortable.

Looking at the newly hatched Martial Soul, Han Li's first impression was one of magnificence and nobility.

Shui Bing'er's Martial Soul has changed a lot compared to before. Before, it could only be described as having the appearance of a phoenix, and most of the time it just looked hazy and cold, not even clear enough.

Now, although it still exists in the form of an energy phantom, it is no longer blurry in appearance, but has fully revealed its form, and even the details are impeccable.

Its entire body is a translucent blue, as if it were carved from a piece of crystal. Snowflakes are constantly falling around it and disappearing quickly, giving people a very dreamy feeling.

To Han Li's surprise, the Ice Phoenix's long tail feathers and the few feathers on its head had turned the same milky white as his Martial Soul, and were constantly interacting with the aura of its entire body, subtly increasing the coldness of the Martial Soul itself.

If this continues, will Shui Bing'er's Martial Soul also become like her master's? Han Li had some vague suspicions.

Just as he was thinking this, the Ice Phoenix on Shui Bing'er's head detached itself, shrank slightly, and flew to Han Li's side, circling around him.

Shui Bing'er opened her eyes somewhat blankly, looking at her Martial Soul expressing her affection for Han Li, and for a moment she didn't know how to speak.

She could feel that her Martial Soul had become much stronger and was not out of control. With just a thought, her Martial Soul could return to the top of her head, but she did not choose to do so and just watched.

Han Li was also somewhat bewildered. Shui Bing'er's Martial Soul had actually flown to his side, and his Martial Soul was even faintly feeling a tremor.

"Could it be because Shui Bing'er absorbed his Soul Power and transformed it into ice element when her Martial Soul Evolution?" Han Li wondered uncertainly.

"Ahem, Bing'er, why don't you take back your Martial Soul first?"

Han Li also noticed that Shui Bing'er had woken up and spoke up.

"Good."

Shui Bing'er glanced at him, stood up, and took the initiative to summon her Martial Soul, returning it to her body.

"Alright, let's go out first. We can talk about this later. The strange phenomenon of the Martial Soul Evolution just now attracted them all, and they're waiting for us outside."

Han Li noticed the commotion outside the training room and smiled as he spoke to Shui Bing'er.

"Good."

Shui Bing'er nodded obediently; this was indeed not the place to talk.

Han Li opened the door to the training room and immediately saw the crowd waiting outside.

"As expected," he said with a smile. "Come on, get ready to welcome our protagonist today."

After saying that, he stepped aside, revealing Shui Bing'er to everyone.

"Bing'er, your hair has become a bit lighter, it looks even better."

It was Dugu Yan who spoke. Sure enough, men and women focus on different things. Han Li hadn't noticed at all.

"Yes, Sister Yan is right, and it seems to have a layer of white glow, making your skin look even whiter."

Xiu'er nodded in agreement, somewhat envious.

"Yeah?"

Shui Bing'er hadn't even noticed the changes in herself after waking up when she heard her words. She grabbed a strand of hair and then a happy smile appeared on her face.

Han Li, Broad Hill, and Azure Luan, who were standing to the side, looked at the three women discussing the changes in their hair, and were somewhat at a loss for words.
