Ice Block Had Learned to Be Bad?

"Is your Hundred Flavor Fruit sweet?"

"Sweet."

"Turn your face around."

"Okay, the taste is a little strange..."

Little Li had just taken a bite of the Hundred Flavor Fruit when he realized his handsome face was now distorted and looked a bit like a piggy bank, so he turned his face to the side.

Well, how come he tasted a sense of 'vicissitude' in this fruit? Is that the taste a fruit should have?

I really shouldn't have eaten the food that the Ice Block brought...

But then again...

Such a cold, icy Ice Block, yet I'm offering you a heart in my hands—what kind of cadre could withstand such a test?

"I clearly ate it..."

Ying Bing took another small bite of her fruit, her cheeks twitching slightly.

"It's quite sweet."

"Then I'll try yours."

Li Mo leaned closer suspiciously, took a bite of the fruit in her hand, and then, as if he had eaten a large black plum, his expression became ferocious.

"Ice Block, you kill a thousand enemies but lose a thousand of your own..."

Li Mo felt like vomiting as soon as he opened his mouth.

Splat--

A slender hand covered his mouth; it was icy cold.

Little Li's eyes widened as he clearly saw the girl's lips slightly upturned, revealing a shallow dimple.

Ice Block has gone astray.

She doesn't uphold martial ethics, and neither does Little Li necessarily aspire to be a virtuous gentleman.

"This fruit..."

Just as Ying Bing was about to explain, a warm sensation, like a subtle electric current, flowed through her entire body from her palm.

She couldn't help but purse her lips and gently shrink her swan-like neck.

"Hmph..."

Little Li feeling quite pleased with himself.

Suddenly, I felt a warm sensation rising from my Dantian and reaching the depths of my heart.

What surges into my heart, causing ripples on the lake of my soul... is it emotion?

He seemed to see the young man and woman standing under the Marriage Tree. He was full of vigor and said that he would go to Southern Pass to make a name for himself and return home to make her a general's wife. But when the young woman came again, she was only dressed in white mourning clothes and hung the bamboo plaque on the tree.

There are also childhood sweethearts, living happily ever after, pledging to be together for life under the Marriage Tree, only to be separated by war. When they finally meet again under the tree in their old age, they are strangers to each other.

There was also a young monk who skipped his morning lessons to play, but under the Marriage Tree, he encountered the most beautiful and dreamlike Green Phoenix he had ever seen in his life.

Later, he became the abbot of the Suspended Pavilion, spending half his life trying to forget that one second...

These are the flavors he tasted.

"This fruit contains the Power of All Living Beings and the myriad flavors of life, hence it is called the Hundred Flavor Fruit."

"It has remarkable effects in strengthening the Will Soul."

Accompanying the girl's voice came the Taiyin Clear Radiance and the Jade Phoenix God.

Thus, amidst the sea of emotions, Li Mo's resolve remained unwavering.

Maintaining the body of the Cry Dragon, or any other form of Demon Race transformation, had very little effect when cultivating the Will Soul.

But Li Mo felt his Will Soul stirring within him.

Moreover, the effects were immediate, surpassing all the heavenly materials and earthly treasures he had previously consumed.

The cold little hands were removed.

"The Power of All Living Beings?"

Little Li can finally speak normally again.

"Yes, by receiving offerings and the beliefs of others, one will receive the Power of All Living Beings."

Ying Bing tucked her small, curled-up hand behind her back and said nonchalantly:

"The Method of Observing Self as God usually involves devouring the Power of All Living Beings to strengthen Will Soul."

"For example, those half-demons?"

Li Mo seemed lost in thought.

He finally understood what he had seen on the Witch Spirit that day. No wonder he had asked Wu Dameng to act in the play. By extension, fear could also generate the Power of All Living Beings.

When the people are filled with fear, they will worship and rely on the so-called Witch Spirit even more, providing them with more faith.

He had only taken two bites of the Hundred Flavor Fruit when the growth of his Will Soul became visible to the naked eye.

If one could acquire these resources consistently, how fast would one's cultivation progress be?

As if sensing his thoughts, Ying Bing said seriously:

"This shortcut has huge drawbacks; otherwise, wouldn't the Demon Summoning Cult be considered a demonic sect?"

"Oh? And the fruit we're eating..."

"The Hundred Flavor Fruit has been flowering and bearing fruit for thousands of years, making it extremely pure. Eating one will not cause any harm."

Li Mo was finally relieved.

Looking at the fruit in his hand, he knew it was very precious; if he ate it all, he estimated he could break through to a higher realm.

I forced myself to eat it, but I was afraid I wouldn't be able to hold it in and would throw it up.

"Ice Block, give me a hand."

"Hmm." Ying Bing assumed it was a dual cultivation session, so she reached out to take his hand.

Li Mo shook his head and gestured with his lips. "Here."

It probably won't do much good if he covers it up himself.

Ying Bing pursed her lips. "Find something to cover yourself, it'll be the same."

"This fruit is awful; I can't eat it unless I'm eating something delicious with it."

Li Mo was very serious. He had just thought about the whole process of how he ate that Hundred Flavor Fruit.

"?"

Ying Bing looked at him expressionlessly, "Why don't you just tell me to put my foot in your mouth?"

But after lowering her eyes and thinking about it, she couldn't resist his upright and gentlemanly appearance, so she decided to just touch his face.

"Don't stick your tongue out..."

"I promise!"

Li Mo spoke with unwavering resolve and a firm gaze.

Unless you can't help it.

Then.

Little Li's new dual cultivation technique with the Ice Block: +1.

"Huh? What are they doing?"

Murong Xiao searched for Li Mo for a long time. He would soon be leaving Southern Border with the Hanging Temple and planned to say goodbye to Brother Li.

Wu Qing, Murong Feng, and his parents came with him. Upon seeing the scene before them, they immediately stopped and even pulled their son back from asking questions.

"This is cultivation." Murong Feng coughed lightly.

"Um?"

Murong Xiao looked at his parents blankly. He had never even heard of such a cultivation posture, let alone seen it.

But his mother nodded, and since both his parents said so, Murong Xiao believed it.

"I wasn't full yet, and I was hoping Brother Li would cook some more food. His cooking is delicious."

"And now?"

"I don't seem so hungry anymore."

Murong Xiao looked at his loving parents and the two people cultivating together not far away, and touched his shiny bald head.

Suddenly.

A faint ripple came from within.

"He broke through to a higher realm? Is he really practicing dual cultivation?"

Murong Feng was taken aback.

"Wow... Li Mo, this little guy, has mastered the Four Apertures of Divine Observation?" Wu Qing's eyes widened slightly.

Murong Xiao: "?"

So, wasn't that right just now?

A childhood without being misled by one's parents is incomplete; at this moment, Murong Xiao's childhood felt much more complete.

Congratulations!

The next moment.

The Jade Phoenix God shone brightly, Li Mo decided to press on with the momentum of breaking through the Four Apertures of Divine Observation and continue to perfect the Seventy-Two Transformations.

Ying Bing, in order to gather the Divine Intent of Hundred Birds and condense the Phoenix God, also needs to accept the many True Spirit within the Jade Phoenix God.

Divine light shone brightly, and numerous True Spirit manifested, displaying a myriad of phenomena that illuminated the Aquatic Clan Grotto-Heaven.

"Father, Mother, you..."

"Son, don't speak, Divine Observation."

Murong Feng grabbed his son and made him sit cross-legged.

Wu Qing then went to inform the other Aquatic Clan to hurry to the surrounding area and use the Divine Jade True Spirit to enhance their bloodline power.
