In the end, Jianchen was unable to refuse. He could only accept the extremely precious Icesoul.
Although the extreme coldness within the Icesoul had been removed, it did not change its nature. As a result, Jianchen still felt icy-cold when he held the Icesoul in his hand. However, he did not feel cold at all. Instead, he felt warm inside.
He knew how important the Icesoul was to Changyang Mingyue. If he used it on Changyang Mingyue, her strength would definitely increase much more than his. After all, the amount of energy required for each layer of the Chaotic Body that he cultivated was incalculable. However, Changyang Mingyue did not think about him at all. She was willing to reduce her strength to help him, which touched Jianchen deeply.
"Brother, let's go. I'll find a secret room for you, and then I'll personally watch over you. You'll definitely absorb all the Icesoul," Changyang Mingyue pulled Jian Chen toward the secret room for seclusion.
Jianchen did not resist. He knew just how determined his sister was right now. It would be useless no matter how he resisted. The only thing he could do was to deeply engrave this kindness in his heart.
Jianchen entered a cold, icy cavern under Changyang Mingyue's personal lead. Cold mist permeated the cavern, and energy was abundant. A pure-white rock of ice the size of a cushion was placed in the center. It radiated with coldness.
"Brother, protector Shui said that this piece of profound ice is extraordinary. It'll be beneficial to cultivators if you cultivate on it. You can emerge after you've completely absorbed the Icesoul," Changyang Mingyue pointed at the cushion. Afterward, she closed the door to the room with a wave of her hand, leaving Jianchen alone inside. She sat outside and personally watched over Jianchen.
"Protector Shui, you can't change my mind once I've decided on something. I know you're thinking for me and want me to become even stronger, but my brother has been through a lot of hardship in the past few years. Although he's no weaker than me now, I know that he traded his life for his strength today. In the past, when my brother was suffering outside and being hunted down, it was my incompetence as his sister that prevented me from helping him. But now that I have the ability, I have to help my brother no matter what. This is my responsibility as his sister, "Changyang Mingyue murmured inside as she closed her eyes and sat before the door to the secret room.
"With me here, protector Shui, you won't be able to take the Icesoul back from my brother. Even if I have to extend the time it takes for my Profound Ice Body to mature, I have to guard him until he emerges …"
Jianchen sat on the profound ice rock with the Icesoul in his hand. He stared at the Icesoul in his hand with mixed feelings. For a moment, he was unable to calm down.
At this moment, a cool sensation radiated from the profound ice rock to his left and entered Jianchen's body. The cool sensation was clearly not as simple as just cold Qi. With its appearance, it actually gradually calmed down Jianchen's mixed feelings, allowing him to quickly get rid of his distracting thoughts.
"Sister …" Jianchen murmured inside before calming himself down. He began to focus on cultivation, absorbing the energy within the Icesoul as much as he could.
Although the vast energy within the Icesoul was condensed from extremely cold Qi, every single Icesoul took a million years to form. After such a long period of accumulation, the energy within the Icesoul had already undergone a qualitative change. Not only was the coldness gone, but the energy was also extremely pure, vast, and powerful.
When Jianchen absorbed the first strand of energy from the Icesoul, the tiny strand immediately began to swell like a balloon. In the end, the strand of energy reached a hundred percent, filling up Jianchen's entire dantian. In the end, his dantian was unable to contain all the energy, causing it to disperse. It filled Jianchen's entire body, causing him to clearly swell up.
Jianchen rejoiced inside. He had already estimated the value of the Icesoul before, but only now did he discover in surprise that it was even more powerful than he had estimated.
"I wonder if I can reach the fifth layer of the Chaotic Body with this Icesoul?" Jianchen was filled with anticipation. He immediately began to refine the energy within the Icesoul as hard as he could.
As the energy from the Icesoul was constantly absorbed by Jianchen, the chaotic neidan in his dantian began to swell bit by bit. The neidan contained more and more Chaotic Force, allowing Jianchen to rapidly approach the fifth layer of the Chaotic Body.
If it were not for the Icesoul, it would have taken Jianchen quite a lot of time to reach the fifth layer of the Chaotic Body. After all, the energy required to go from the fourth layer to the fifth layer was just too tremendous. It was far more than what he needed to reach the fourth layer from the third layer.
Although he had obtained a large number of heavenly resources from the Xuanhuang Microcosm, his body would develop a resistance to the heavenly resources if he consumed too many of them in a short amount of time. As a result, Jianchen was unable to reach the fifth layer of the Chaotic Body in a short amount of time. After all, he did not have an innate advantage like the White Tiger, who could consume heavenly resources without a limit.
Without a doubt, the appearance of the Icesoul was a timely help to Jianchen. It greatly shortened the time he needed to reach the fifth layer.
Jianchen absorbed the Icesoul extremely quickly. In just two months, the fist-sized Icesoul had vanished from Jianchen's hand. It had been completely refined into Chaotic Force by Jianchen.
However, to Jianchen's regret, his Chaotic Force still did not reach the fifth layer after absorbing the Icesoul. It was only a sliver away from the fifth layer.
The chaotic neidan in his dantian had gone from the size of a pigeon's egg to the size of an adult's fist. It had reached the peak of the fourth layer, a limit. If it could go any further, it would immediately reach the fifth layer.
Jianchen silently stared at the large chaotic neidan in his dantian. After a moment of silence, he gritted his teeth and flipped his hand. An energy crystal from a Xuanhuang beast immediately appeared.
As soon as the energy crystal appeared, an extremely terrifying energy pulsed, permeating the entire room.
At the same time, protector Shui seemed to sense something as she sat on a bed of ice in another part of the hall. She slowly opened her eyes and glanced at where Jianchen was cultivating. Her gaze was deep, as if she could see through the walls of ice and directly see Jianchen.
But very soon, protector Shui looked away like nothing had happened. She sat on the bed of ice and slowly closed her eyes again.
