Ice and Fire Extremes! Hidden Light Bloodline? Refining the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower Again!

"What is it? Speak."

Shui Bing'er responded without a moment's hesitation.

"I want to compress all the Evil Fire within my body."

Huang Yan said in a deep voice.

"Compress the Evil Fire?"

Shui Bing'er was slightly stunned.

"Aren't we supposed to take this opportunity to use the power of the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and the Ice Spring to purify it completely?"

"No, purifying it would be a waste."

Huang Yan chuckled, his tone brimming with powerful confidence.

"Although the Evil Fire is a flaw in my Martial Soul and prone to backlash, the destructive power it contains is terrifying. Since I have your Ice Phoenix ice to help me neutralize it now, and the immortal herb to consolidate my foundation, why would I want to destroy it?"

"I understand."

Shui Bing'er was sharp and intelligent, instantly grasping Huang Yan's intent.

"You want to master it completely, keep it, and turn it into your own means of attack?"

"Exactly! I want to make this Evil Fire a true blade in my hands!"

Huang Yan let out a low shout and immediately began to consciously guide and compress the violent Evil Fire within his body.

"Alright, I will use the origin of my Ice Phoenix to help you stabilize your meridians and maintain the balance!"

Shui Bing'er pushed her soul power to the limit, coordinating with Huang Yan's movements.

On the shore, Dugu Bo, who had been staring intently at the water surface, suddenly exclaimed in alarm:

"Third Offering, look! Why has the crimson flame on that boy's body dimmed? And it's constantly shrinking inward! Is he unable to absorb the energy of the Yang Spring and suffering a backlash?"

Azure Luan Douluo raised an eyebrow, carefully sensing the fluctuations of the aura beneath the water, and a smile appeared on his lips once more:

"Making a fuss over nothing. He isn't failing to absorb it; he is actively compressing that mutated Evil Fire."

"Actively compressing?"

Dugu Bo's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief.

"That is Ultimate Fire poison! Instead of taking the chance to neutralize and expel it, he dares to compress it to death? Is this kid tired of living?!"

"What would you know?"

Azure Luan Douluo snorted coldly, a hint of undisguised admiration flashing in his eyes.

"This boy's ambition is even greater than I imagined. He is forcibly refining the flaw of his Martial Soul into his own trump card. Watch quietly; when they come out, they will definitely be reborn."

Half a day later, the sky began to darken. Beneath the spring, the once violently surging auras of Huang Yan and Shui Bing'er finally began to settle.

"Bing'er, I succeeded."

Huang Yan's voice echoed in her consciousness, filled with a relieved smile.

"The Evil Fire has been completely suppressed. Now, it is no longer a hidden danger that backlashes against me, but a pure energy that is entirely under my control and can be released at will."

"That's wonderful!"

Shui Bing'er responded with pleasant surprise.

"I feel that my Ice Phoenix bloodline has also completely transformed. That pure chill... my ice attribute now is definitely the 'Ultimate Ice' you told me about before! And my soul power has broken through the bottleneck, reaching level fifty!"

"Ultimate Ice, level fifty, truly perfect."

Huang Yan exclaimed in admiration, then began to sense the changes within himself.

"My martial soul has also shed the impurities of the Evil Fire, evolving into a legitimate Fire Phoenix, and I have likewise mastered 'Ultimate Fire'."

"Then what is your current soul power level?"

Shui Bing'er asked curiously.

"Level fifty-eight."

Huang Yan replied.

"From level fifty-three to fifty-eight... only an increase of five levels?"

Shui Bing'er was somewhat surprised.

"I thought that with your foundation, you would have broken through directly to level sixty."

"This was within my expectations."

Huang Yan chuckled softly and explained:

"In order to completely strip away the Evil Fire and compress it into a controllable offensive method, I exhausted the majority of the immortal herb's medicinal potency and the Yang Spring's primordial energy on that process.

Compared to a simple increase in soul power, completely resolving the hidden dangers of my martial soul while simultaneously mastering both Ultimate Fire and the Evil Fire is the greatest harvest."

"Mm!

As long as your hidden dangers are resolved, that is all that matters."

Shui Bing'er said softly.

"Splash--"

The water broke apart as light, interwoven with icy blue and crimson, soared into the sky.

The two of them disengaged from their martial soul fusion state and landed steadily on the shore.

Dugu Bo felt the terrifying aura radiating from the two of them, his eyes nearly popping out of their sockets as he pointed at them and stammered:

"This... this aura... so pure?!

It has reached the pinnacle of both fire and ice attributes respectively!

You two little monsters, you actually survived?!"

Note.

Although the concept of 'Ultimate Attributes' did not yet exist in this era, it was not difficult to understand that when an attribute reached its limit, it could be called an 'Ultimate Attribute'.

Azure Luan Douluo stepped forward, his eyes filled with gratification as he looked Huang Yan up and down:

"Yan'er, how do you feel?"

"I have not failed your expectations, Teacher."

Huang Yan bowed slightly, a confident smile on his lips.

"The Evil Fire is now completely under my control, my martial soul has officially transformed into a legitimate Fire Phoenix, and I have mastered Ultimate Fire.

My soul power is currently at level fifty-eight."

"Good!

What a magnificent Ultimate Fire!"

Azure Luan Douluo laughed out loud, repeating the word 'good' twice before looking at Shui Bing'er.

"And what about you, Bing'er?"

Shui Bing'er replied respectfully:

"Reporting to Senior, my Ice Phoenix bloodline has also been purified to the limit, and I have mastered Ultimate Ice.

My soul power has jumped from level forty-three to level fifty in one go."

Dugu Bo stood to the side, swallowing hard as he stared at the two of them as if they were monsters, unable to help but mutter:

"One jumps from level forty-three to fifty, the other from level fifty-three to fifty-eight...

And both of them have awakened Ultimate Attributes...

If this were to get out, the entire soul master world would go mad!"

After hearing their reports, Azure Luan Douluo could no longer hide the smile on his face and couldn't help but laugh heartily:

"Good!

Good!

Good!

You are truly worthy of being my, Azure Luan's, disciples!"

"With Ultimate Ice and Ultimate Fire, your future achievements will be limitless based on these two ultimate attributes alone!"

Huang Yan smiled slightly, his words shocking:

"Teacher, actually... my martial soul still has room to evolve."

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire scene fell silent.

Shui Bing'er, Azure Luan Douluo, and even Dugu Bo standing to the side, all looked at Huang Yan with faces full of astonishment.

Dugu Bo could not help but cry out:

"Still has room to evolve?! Kid, you are already an orthodox Fire Phoenix of Ultimate Fire; what kind of monster could you possibly become if you evolve further?!"

Azure Luan Douluo also retracted his smile, his expression turning solemn with a hint of anticipation:

"Yan'er, is this true?"

"Absolutely true."

Huang Yan nodded and explained earnestly.

"Just a moment ago, the instant I completely stripped away and suppressed the Evil Fire, my martial soul completed its transformation. I clearly sensed that deep within my phoenix bloodline, there was actually a hidden, extremely pure Radiant attribute."

"Radiant attribute?"

Azure Luan Douluo was startled.

"Yes."

Huang Yan continued.

"Previously, this Radiant bloodline was suppressed by the violent Evil Fire and could not manifest at all. Now that the Evil Fire has been cleared, it finally shows signs of reviving. However, to fully awaken this Radiant bloodline, I still lack a catalyst."

Shui Bing'er's beautiful eyes brightened as she asked softly:

"What catalyst do you need?"

Huang Yan did not speak, but instead turned and walked toward a herb garden beside the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well. His gaze locked onto a strange, trembling red immortal herb that resembled a cockscomb.

"It is this."

Huang Yan reached out without hesitation and plucked the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower.

"This immortal herb is the perfect catalyst to awaken the Radiant Phoenix bloodline within me!"

The Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower could purify the Fire Phoenix bloodline. Since Huang Yan's fire attribute was already Ultimate Fire, refining the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower to stimulate his own Fire Phoenix bloodline would, in turn, trigger the latent Radiant bloodline.

Having said that, Huang Yan did not delay any further and immediately sat cross-legged on the spot. He placed the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower into his mouth, closed his eyes, and began to refine its medicinal power.
