Once Shui Bing'er was in position, a large chunk of ten thousand-year-old profound ice marrow descended through time and crashed onto the ground in front of her.
In almost an instant, Shui Wuya felt his mental power being drained massively.
Exhaustion surged like a spring.
The last time he felt this exhausted was when he first gave medicine to Shui Bing'er.
With the advancement of his soul power level and gaining Octagon, his mental power had at least doubled.
Yet, just as this large chunk of ten thousand-year-old profound ice marrow was sent over, it threatened to drain him dry.
On the other side, as the ten thousand-year-old profound ice marrow landed, a wave of cold spread out, freezing the nearby ground.
Shui Bing'er was startled by the immense coldness. She lacked Shui Wuya's ice immunity; although the Ice Phoenix Martial Soul spontaneously emerged to ease her discomfort, she still felt chilly.
"Is this the ten thousand-year-old profound ice marrow you mentioned?" Shui Bing'er asked.
"Yes, absorbing this can rapidly increase your soul power and possibly strengthen your extreme ice," Shui Wuya's voice sounded somewhat weak.
Understanding that this expenditure was due to sending her the ten thousand-year-old profound ice marrow, Shui Bing'er said, "I still have plenty here. Once my mental power recovers, I'll send you more."
With that, Shui Wuya ended the conversation.
As the dialogue concluded, Shui Wuya was about to start meditating to restore his mental power when suddenly, in his mental sea, a pure mass of mental power appeared out of nowhere, merging with his mental space.
And the mental power he had just expended was instantly replenished!
Moreover, Shui Wuya felt his mental power had increased significantly again!
His two arms involuntarily transformed into the claws of the Ice Emperor, and blood-red soul rings rose from beneath his feet.
This was initiated by Shui Wuya himself. He felt that his soul rings seemed to have changed!
On the crimson soul ring, four golden patterns shimmered brightly.
Seeing the four patterns, Shui Wuya was filled with excitement. "Ice Emperor, did you break through?"
Previously, this soul ring had clearly only had three golden patterns.
The addition of one pattern meant that the Ice Emperor had just reached four hundred thousand years.
Emerging from the crack in the ground, the Ice Emperor also wore a smile on her face. "With the help of those ten thousand-year-old profound ice marrow, I broke through."
In truth, the main reason she could break through was that as a spirit, she didn't have a heavenly tribulation. With sufficient cultivation, she naturally achieved a breakthrough.
Sounds of cracking came from nearby, and Octagon popped his head out.
"Yeah, all the ten thousand-year-old profound ice marrow below has been absorbed almost completely," Octagon said with a frustrated expression as he emerged from underground.
Breaking through four hundred thousand years is a significant milestone for the Ice Emperor, and the energy expended to break through this barrier can be described as immense.
In reality, there wasn't a large reserve of ten thousand-year-old profound ice marrow below, and one absorption by the Ice Emperor had just the right effect, with the excess being absorbed by Octagon.
"Breaking through is indeed a good thing," Shui Wuya said with a smile.
The ten thousand-year-old profound ice marrow they had above would last them for a long time. Regardless of how much the Ice Emperor absorbed, the breakthrough was still a positive outcome. Additionally, the replenished mental power allowed him to give all the ten thousand-year-old profound ice marrow to Shui Bing'er without hesitation.
Between giving all the ten thousand-year-old profound ice marrow to Shui Bing'er and keeping some to take back to their homeland, Shui Wuya chose to give it all to Shui Bing'er without hesitation. After all, Shui Bing'er wouldn't be able to use it all, and whatever remained after thousands of years would still end up in his hands.
...
Inside the Ice God's Realm:
After Shui Wuya and Han Feng left, Shui Yanjun continued practicing by the pool.
Breaking through to level ninety was a very important matter.
It depended on opportunities and personal comprehension. Shui Yanjun was well aware of this, but before that, reaching the limit of his current soul power state would never be wrong.
Soul power surged within Shui Yanjun's body, and an invisible pressure slowly spread out, forming a pseudo-domain.
When a soul master was practicing, if their strength was formidable, they would involuntarily affect the surrounding environment.
To avoid being affected by Shui Yanjun's cultivation, no nearby clansmen approached.
This was also because they had just moved into the Ice God's Realm. Although everyone had settled in, the construction of rooms and dwellings needed to be done slowly.
Suddenly, Shui Yanjun's aura completely converged, and he ceased his meditation.
Beside the pool, as Shui Yanjun finished his meditation and opened his eyes, he suddenly stood up, his gaze fixed on the water.
"What's going on? Just now, I felt that the temperature around me dropped significantly," Shui Yanjun frowned.
The pool remained the same, but small frost had appeared on the edge of the pool's land.
Clearly, Shui Yanjun's earlier sensation wasn't a misconception.
He didn't understand, but it was evident that if this matter wasn't clarified, it could become a safety hazard for everyone.
No one knew what would happen if left unattended.
With this in mind, Shui Yanjun reached his hand into the water.
A layer of ice crystals instantly formed on Shui Yanjun's hand, but soon, the ice crystals disappeared. Shui Yanjun's proficiency in the ice attribute was also quite high.
"Extreme ice?" Shui Yanjun's frown deepened. The water in the pool didn't behave like this before.
However, fortunately, extreme ice posed no danger to him.
"For me, it has no effect, but Soul Kings and those below them could encounter life-threatening situations if they get close," Shui Yanjun concluded.
At present, it was imperative to enter the water and find the source of this change.
With Shui Wuya absent, as the acting patriarch, he was responsible for everyone's safety.
Glancing around, he first went to the clan members and assigned two people to watch over the others, ensuring they stayed away from the pool.
Afterward, Shui Yanjun leaped into the water.
The pool was deep, but thankfully, faint light could be seen below. Shui Yanjun gathered his soul power, unaffected by the extreme ice in the pool, and his eyes could clearly perceive the situation within the pool.
This coldness emanated from deeper within the pool.
Shui Yanjun descended swiftly, soon reaching the bottom of the pool.
At this point, he was met with a vast expanse of ice-blue ice.
"This is..." Shui Yanjun's eyes widened. "Millennium Ice Marrow!"
He was knowledgeable, and the quantity of millennium ice marrow here was enough to make several Title Douluos proud!
Although the birth of a Titled Douluo wasn't that simple, purely in terms of energy, it was sufficient.
Shui Yanjun carefully examined his surroundings and discovered that the chill from the millennium ice marrow had been sealed by a special force.
This force carried the aura of their family's techniques, clearly the work of their predecessors.
With so many of them entering the secret realm, they had likely triggered certain conditions, causing the dispersion of the force here.
Shui Yanjun couldn't resolve this. ten thousand-year-old profound ice marrow wasn't a danger; instead, it was an opportunity. It was just that their strength wasn't enough to seize this opportunity.
