Beiming Lieyang accepted the soul sacrifice of the Hundred-Thousand-Year Ice Jade Scorpion, and his Soul Power broke through the shackles of level sixty.
Vast amounts of Soul Power washed over his body and meridians. The sacrifice ignited the power of ice and fire, as well as the accumulated power within the Ice and Fire Dragon King bones, repeatedly tempering his body and soul.
Divine power compressed layer upon layer, making his Soul Power increasingly condensed and domineering.
One blue and one red beam of light shot into the sky!
Sixty-one, sixty-two, sixty-three... all the way to level sixty-eight!
The lower one's Soul Power Level, the more noticeable the improvement brought by a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast sacrifice.
Previously, the medicinal power of the Ice and Fire Immortal Herb and the energy of the Ice and Fire Spring Water still remained within him. Combined with the foundation laid by Xiao Wu's sacrifice, that was how he had previously reached level fifty-six.
But after level sixty, each level became increasingly difficult to advance through, though his Soul Power also became purer as a result.
After obtaining his fifth Spirit Ring, his Soul Power reserves increased threefold once more.
Now, his own Soul Power reserves had reached eleven times that of Soul Masters at the same level—and eleven times that of Ultimate Martial Soul Masters at that.
The Ice Jade Scorpion sacrificed this time had also consumed Void Mysterious Ice. Her overall attributes had been amplified threefold, making her Soul Power far more abundant and refined, vastly surpassing that Hundred-Thousand-Year Soft Bone Rabbit from before.
Even so, this Ice Jade Scorpion's sacrifice only pushed Beiming Lieyang to level sixty-four.
After all, he had previously instructed her not to fuse the Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone into Beiming Lieyang's body, so he lost out on a portion of the Soul Power boost.
As for the remaining four levels, they were entirely thanks to the medicinal power of the Ice and Fire Immortal Herb within Beiming Lieyang's body, the essence of the Ice and Fire Spring Water,
as well as, most crucially, the power contained within the Ice and Fire Dragon King Spirit Bones continuously pouring forth and surging wildly.
"It actually... rose directly to level sixty-eight?"
Ice Empress looked at Beiming Lieyang in utter astonishment, which was quickly replaced by shock.
"Can it still improve so much at this level? It seems I was right to have Xiaobi consume that Void Mysterious Ice."
Snow Empress was equally astonished. "Then Xiaoyang, what is your sixth Spirit Ability? And have your first two Spirit Abilities improved as Bing'er predicted?"
Beiming Lieyang sensed it for a moment.
"The energy purity and hardness of my first and second Spirit Abilities, as well as my own Soul Power reserves, have all increased by fifty percent."
"My sixth Spirit Ability is Void Sword God. It condenses Void Mysterious Ice into Void Sword Qi and summons a colossal sword that falls from the heavens."
"This sword has five levels: Heart, Form, Intent, Soul, and God. Each additional Spirit Ring raises it by one level."
"At its highest level, Void Sword God cannot be defended against or evaded. One slash severs the source, severing both the past and the future."
"Frozen Hundred Flower Burial. The energy purity and hardness of Void Mysterious Ice, as well as my own Soul Power reserves, all increase by three hundred percent."
"Void Mysterious Ice rises into the air and turns into snowflakes that drift down from the sky. Whenever a snowflake touches a target, it condenses into an ice flower upon their body."
"When one hundred ice flowers have accumulated, the target is completely frozen from the inside out, turning into ice crystals that shatter and disperse."
"The ice flowers cannot be dispelled or purified. The only options are to kill the caster or wait for the effect to end on its own."
Upon hearing Beiming Lieyang describe those two Spirit Abilities, everyone present stared at him in disbelief, especially at Void Sword God.
Ice Empress grabbed Beiming Lieyang's hand, utterly shaken.
"Xiaoyang, Xiaoyang, isn't your sixth Spirit Ability far too terrifying?! This already involves concepts! It can't be defended against or evaded, and one sword strike severs the source, the past, and the future!"
"And that Frozen Hundred Flower Burial—once a hundred ice flowers stack up, the target is guaranteed to die! How can it be this terrifying? Xiaobi is only a hundred-thousand-year Ice Jade Scorpion. She doesn't have such outrageous abilities!"
Everyone else nodded repeatedly as well.
It was simply too absurd. It was a growth-type ability, yet after being attached to the fifth Spirit Ring, it had already become its final form.
Beiming Lieyang raised his hand, and a piece of Void Mysterious Ice appeared in his palm. Then he looked at the Ice Dragon King Spirit Bone on his left arm.
"This probably isn't because of the Ice Jade Scorpion. When I obtained the Spirit Ring, the divine power of the Ice Dragon King Spirit Bone was washing over me. Combined with the Void Mysterious Ice, and... the Star of the Galaxy..."
He lifted the Star of the Galaxy hanging around his neck.
"It most likely created a special effect with it, resulting in these two outrageous Spirit Abilities. They already qualify as godly skills."
Atai and Xiaobai stared at the Ice Dragon King Spirit Bone on Beiming Lieyang's left hand in disbelief. They could sense an incomparably terrifying aura emanating from it.
Previously, Lord Snow Empress had said that the young master's Spirit Bones should not occupy ice-element slots. But now, it seemed this was definitely no ordinary Spirit Bone, which was why the young master had equipped it.
"Divine power..." Atai seemed to have already guessed something.
Ice Empress gave a soft snort. "That's right. This is a God-tier Spirit Bone."
"A God-tier Spirit Bone?!" The Titan Snow Demon King and Ice Bear King Xiaobai stared at that Spirit Bone in utter disbelief.
It was far too terrifying.
"Of course. What did you think we went out for?"
Ice Empress huffed. "Naturally, it was to take Xiaoyang to find good treasures."
"Wasn't it because Bing'er wanted to go to the human world for delicious food, and to make Xiaoyang's Void Mysterious Ice even purer?" Snow Empress exposed her from the side, chuckling softly.
"What's wrong with that? Improving Xiaoyang's strength was the important thing. Eating ice was only secondary."
As Ice Empress spoke, she thought of Void Mysterious Ice again. Drool suddenly appeared at the corner of her mouth, and she wiped it away with the back of her hand.
"Oh, right. Xiaoyang's Void Mysterious Ice has gained another three hundred percent increase in energy purity. It should have reached sixteen times the purity now, right?"
Beiming Lieyang smiled at Ice Empress's greedy expression.
He immediately condensed a piece of Void Mysterious Ice, then directly pressed it into his chest.
In an instant, all his attributes were amplified threefold once more.
He then summoned the Solar Star God Apollo Martial Soul and equipped its armor.
Amid repeated clangs of metal, crimson armor attached itself to Beiming Lieyang's body, shining upon the Far North like a blazing sun.
Yet the many ice-element Soul Beasts present did not find that blazing sun scorching. Instead, it carried an incomparably warm feeling, like sunlight shining down with gentle warmth.
In an instant, his amplification rose once more.
At this moment, the amplification covering Beiming Lieyang's entire body had reached a terrifying 11.3 times.
He immediately gathered his Soul Power and began compressing it, continuously condensing the purest, most refined Void Mysterious Ice, containing all the energy within his body.
Only Void Mysterious Ice like this was the purest and contained the greatest amount of energy.
After an hour of condensation, Beiming Lieyang expended all the Soul Power in his body and condensed a piece of Void Mysterious Ice the size of a human head.
This piece of Void Mysterious Ice emitted an even more terrifying fragrance and energy fluctuation, stirring everyone present's cravings.
"Everyone, have some."
Ice Empress decisively dug out a piece and put it into her mouth. Her eyes immediately lit up.
"Delicious, delicious, delicious! The energy purity is even more refined! Just one bite is worth a long period of cultivation for me!"
"Ah... delicious."
Those who had eaten Void Mysterious Ice all had their overall attributes amplified threefold.
Snow Empress, the Titan Snow Demon King, and Ice Bear King Xiaobai all stared at the Void Mysterious Ice before them with shock in their eyes.
At its current level, the energy contained within this Void Mysterious Ice was incomparably terrifying.
It was simply even more terrifying than the Ten-thousand-year Mysterious Ice Marrow they had obtained before.
"Xiaoyang, Xiaoyang, the energy purity of your Void Mysterious Ice has already reached sixteen times, while your Soul Power reserves are fourteen times those of ordinary Ultimate Martial Soul Masters. Now add all your own amplifications of 11.3 times..."
Ice Empress counted on her fingers while chewing the Mysterious Ice.
"Then this piece of Void Mysterious Ice, condensed from all the Soul Power in your body, wouldn't that mean... wouldn't that mean..."
Ice Empress got stuck. Beiming Lieyang looked at her and smiled.
"It contains one hundred and fifty-eight times the Soul Power reserves of a Soul Master at the same level."
"Hiss!"
Every Soul Beast present was utterly stunned.
"Then... then this... then the total energy in this Void Mysterious Ice already exceeds the Ten-thousand-year Mysterious Ice Marrow by several times!
"In other words, if a ten-thousand-year Soul Beast completely absorbed the energy in one piece of your Void Mysterious Ice, it could definitely become a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast!"
"Doesn't that mean Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts can be mass-produced?"
The Soul Beasts present were horrified beyond measure.
Ice Empress was overflowing with delight as she leaned against Snow Empress. "Xue'er, Xue'er, look! Doesn't this mean we can already mass-produce top-tier heavenly treasures? Look, my plan worked! Endless top-tier resources!"
Snow Empress looked at Ice Empress, her face equally full of emotion.
"Bing'er, your idea is incredible."
Ice Empress hurriedly nodded.
Titan Snow Demon King Atai and Ice Bear King Xiaobai blankly stared at the piece of Void Mysterious Ice in Beiming Lieyang's hand and swallowed.
At first, they had merely been attracted by its terrifying energy purity. They had never expected the energy reserves inside to be so horrifying.
One hundred and fifty-eight times the Soul Power reserves—it was simply terrifying.
"Auntie, don't celebrate too soon."
Beiming Lieyang slowly spoke.
"This piece of Void Mysterious Ice, condensed using all my Soul Power, can serve as an endless energy source to restore physical strength, heal injuries, and replenish Soul Power."
"But if it is used to directly raise cultivation, its energy purity is too high. Absorbing it immediately can easily cause harm. It can only be absorbed slowly, refined, and converted into cultivation."
Everyone had thought Beiming Lieyang was about to say something serious, but it turned out to be only this.
Ice Empress said unconcernedly, "What's the big deal? Then just absorb it slowly. Since the energy purity is so high, we can take our time absorbing it."
"And even if it isn't absorbed to increase cultivation, merely using it as endless energy to endlessly recover injuries and physical strength would still make it a super treasure!"
Everyone present stared fixedly at that piece of Void Mysterious Ice.
"Alright, I'll recover some Soul Power first, then condense more for all of you."
Upon hearing that Beiming Lieyang intended to do so, everyone present looked at him impatiently.
With this thing, they would have endless recovery of physical strength, Soul Power, and injuries.
At this point, this thing could already be called God-tier Void Mysterious Ice.
"Light Energy Convergence!!"
