After touching it for a while, his fingers suddenly turned into hooks and left five white scratches on the ice wall.
He slowly opened his fingers, and there was already a ball of ice in his palm. He cast a spell, and the ice instantly turned into water, dripping onto the ground.
The scratches left on the wall were unsightly. A guest shouldn't leave such an indecent mark on the host. Miao Yi wiped his wet palm across the ice wall, and the high temperature smoothed out the scratches. Miao Yi furrowed his brows as he stared at the water on his palm. His eyes were filled with confusion.
Without a doubt, the ice that formed this ice castle was just ordinary ice. It was just that the ice was very thick.
However, Miao Yi sensed something strange just now. He felt a sense of déjà vu. It was the same feeling he had when he was absorbing Fire Spirit Essences in the Sea of Constellations Subjugation Crusade, Western Star Sea's Skyfire Mountain, and Supreme Yao Lord Lie Huan's Supreme Fire Palace.
This feeling had given him quite a fright just now. He had thought that the entire ice palace was made of Supreme Fire Crystal. If this ice palace, which was many times larger than the Supreme Fire Palace, was also made of Supreme Fire Crystal, then he would be in deep trouble! However, upon closer inspection, he discovered that it wasn't a Supreme Fire Crystal at all. Instead, it was an ordinary block of ice. The hardness of a Supreme Fire Crystal was not something that someone of his cultivation level could easily scratch with his fingers.
This was strange. Just now, he clearly felt the feeling of absorbing the Fire Spirit Essence. This feeling was very unique and clear. There was definitely no mistake.
After returning from the Sea of Constellations, Miao Yi tried cultivating beside a bonfire. However, the amount of Fire Spirit Essences contained in ordinary flames was almost negligible. Later on, even when he cultivated beside Yao Ruoxian's Artifact Refining Cauldron, the amount of Fire Spirit Essences he could absorb was miniscule. Perhaps even cultivating beside the Artifact Refining Cauldron for ten thousand years wouldn't compare to staying in the Supreme Fire Palace for even a moment. Hence, there was no mistaking the sensation he felt just now.
However … Miao Yi surveyed his surroundings. He touched the ground, the ice couch, and the surrounding walls. He checked every inch of the place.
'Could it be …?' Miao Yi stared at the magnificent light blue brilliance that flickered like flowing clouds within the ice. He didn't know what kind of existence it was, but it didn't seem to be fire.
Try again! He sat cross-legged on the ice couch again and concentrated on cultivating. However, this time, he opened up his six senses and calmly observed.
Very soon. His brows twitched again. That feeling came again.
Where did he come from? He calmed his heart and examined it. It came from all directions!
As soon as the Fiery Star Incantation was activated, the ethereal fire spirit essence was absorbed through every pore of his body.
Miao Yi's consciousness confirmed it. That's right, it was undoubtedly the Fire Spirit Essence.
Eh … something is not right! There was a difference!
The Fire Spirit Essences he absorbed in the Supreme Fire Palace had an almost imperceptible warmth, but the Fire Spirit Essences he absorbed this time had an almost imperceptible iciness to it. The difference was that one was hot while the other was cold!
Miao Yi was shocked, and quickly stopped circulating the Fiery Star Technique. He checked his body to see if there were any abnormalities.
No one told him what to do. Ever since he left the island and Lao Bai, he had to figure everything out by himself. He did not dare to act rashly before he was sure that it was safe. This was not a battle of life and death, where injuries could be healed with some medicine. If there was a problem with his cultivation, then he would be in big trouble. He could not afford to fail.
After confirming that there were no abnormalities in his body, he activated the Fiery Star Technique again and examined the source of his art within his body.
Ever since he absorbed the fire spirit essence. The originally chaotic and hazy source of the art was now mixed with many specks of red starlight, like stars in the vast universe.
Blue? Miao Yi was shocked. He saw the blue specks of light seeping into the transcendence source, but the amount was too little. As soon as they seeped into the transcendence source, they immediately disappeared without a trace.
There were no abnormalities in the transcendence source either. There was nothing wrong with it! Miao Yi immediately stopped circulating the Fiery Star Technique, and kept a close watch on the changes in the transcendence source. He was prepared to stop the moment he found something amiss.
With his six senses activated, he could sense that the cool fire spirit essence was coming from the walls of this ice palace. And the blue specks of light that he absorbed into his body were like specters, disappearing the moment they entered the transcendence source.
How strange! Where did they go? Whether it was good or bad, they should at least give an explanation, right? He continued absorbing!
Until he had completely refined the eight low-grade Orbs of Will in his mouth. Miao Yi's consciousness, which was immersed in the transcendence source, finally woke up.
A day had passed so quickly? It felt like only a moment had passed. He tilted his head to look outside the thin and transparent ice window. The sky was still dark.
He remembered the carpenter saying that the Antarctic Ice Palace had already entered the Eternal Night Period during this season. For half a year, it would be immersed in darkness, and there would be no way to tell the time based on the weather.
Who cares. If something happened, someone would naturally call for him. Let's continue to see what was going on.
Miao Yi tossed another eight Orbs of Will into his mouth, and continued to circulate the Fiery Star Technique to cultivate. His consciousness was once again immersed in the transcendence source.
However, just a short while later. A dazzling blue light suddenly erupted from the transcendence source, startling Miao Yi. He hurriedly stopped the circulation of the Fiery Star Technique, but he couldn't stop the blue light from shining brightly, illuminating the entire transcendence source.
What was going on? Miao Yi felt a little uneasy, but then he saw the blue light suddenly shrink, condensing into a tiny speck. Just like the specks of red starlight in the transcendence source, it shrunk into a blue star.
Following that, something strange happened. The blue star and the red star at the side actually began to sway slightly. Miao Yi, who was observing with his heart stretched taut, didn't even dare to breathe loudly. He didn't know what terrifying thing was about to happen.
The blue and red spots swayed more and more, and finally seemed to be attracted to each other, as though they were slowly getting used to each other, and were actually circling around each other.
They had only circled each other once, but it was as though there was a miraculous invisible wave that cleansed the entire transcendence source. Even though he couldn't see any movement, it affected Miao Yi's body and mind, giving him an indescribably comfortable feeling. "Ugh …" Miao Yi couldn't help but let out a moan.
This feeling was simply too comfortable. It was as though a land that had been dry for a long time had suddenly welcomed a good rain. Just like the saying went, a long drought finally met a good rain!
The pleasure that followed was like a seed bursting out of the soil in his heart that had been nourished, growing a tender green bud.
It was as though Miao Yi had only just realized that his body was actually flawed. It was as though he had been in a sick state for a long time, and the appearance of this blue star seemed to be the other extreme, allowing him to find a balance between Yin and Yang. It was an incomparably comfortable and wonderful feeling.
In that instant, he seemed to have experienced the mysteries of the vast universe. He understood why men couldn't live without women, and why women couldn't live without men. It was because there needed to be a balance, and only when a certain balance was reached, could one live forever.
He could even faintly feel an ancient aura from the transcendence source washing over his heart. It was a feeling that could only be sensed but not described in words, and it shocked both his body and mind. It was as though he had seen an invisible Great Dao!
'How could this be?' Miao Yi, whose body and mind were in shock, slowly opened his eyes. His eyes were still filled with astonishment. Even if he were to invoke his arts and circulate his energy, the red and blue specks of starlight wouldn't stop. The other countless specks of red starlight were all motionless. Only those two specks of starlight continued to spin quietly.
He could vaguely feel that he had touched something just now, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it. It was a rather mysterious feeling.
He checked his body repeatedly, and there were no abnormalities. Did that mean he could continue?
Miao Yi slowly calmed his mind, and began to circulate the Fiery Star Technique again.
However, he had only refined one Orb of Will when he realized something was wrong. His refining speed was obviously much faster than before.
'What's going on? Was it an illusion? Or perhaps he had refined quite a bit of this orb earlier, which was why he felt it was going faster? 'I don't think so, right?
Again! ' This time, he specifically focused on refining one orb. When he was done, Miao Xiao 'er's eyes widened in shock.
For someone who had immersed himself in cultivation all year round, there was nothing more familiar than refining an Orb of Will. He could accurately sense even the slightest change, not to mention that his refining speed had greatly increased. There was no way he could be wrong.
Based on this refining speed, it seemed like he was refining eight low-grade Orbs of Will a day now, but now he was refining nine!
It had only been a day, so how did it suddenly go from eight to nine? Was he dreaming?
It wasn't hard to guess where the problem was.
'Could it be because of the appearance of that blue star? Other than this change, there were no other changes! '
Miao Yi was excited. It was easy to confirm. He just had to continue absorbing and create a second blue star, and then he would know if it was true.
He focused his mind and calmed his excited emotions. He circulated the Fiery Star Technique and continued cultivating …
Once he had refined all eight Orbs of Will in his mouth, he threw another one into his mouth to fill up the number of orbs he had refined for a day. After refining, he threw another one.
In the end, he had only thrown the last orb into his mouth to refine a little when the blue starlight in his art source flashed once more, and another blue star appeared. However, this time, the miraculous scene of the first star illuminating the entire art source didn't reappear. Instead, it started interacting with the red star next to it. Just like before, they were attracted to each other as they rotated.
The comfortable feeling he had at the beginning, which made him moan uncontrollably, didn't reappear.
However, there was one thing that made Miao Yi so excited that he almost had a nosebleed. His refining speed had increased again. Based on the rate of increase, he was refining ten Orbs of Will a day now!
'How the hell am I supposed to cultivate?!' He couldn't cultivate anymore. He was so excited that he couldn't calm down at all!
His current cultivation was only at Blue Lotus Sixth Grade. Originally, he was refining eight low-grade Orbs of Will a day, but now it had suddenly jumped to ten. In other words, his cultivation speed had reached a speed that only a Blue Lotus Eighth Grade could achieve. 'How is this possible?'
Miao Yi couldn't believe it. He wondered if he was dreaming. 'Pa!' He slapped himself hard on the face. 'It hurts!
It feels good even if it hurts! ' Because it proved that he wasn't dreaming. 'Pa!' He slapped himself ruthlessly in the face again!
"Heh! Did this kid take the wrong medicine? He actually slapped himself so hard. Not only did he slap himself so loudly, he even had a silly smile after slapping himself, as though he was having a good time. Stonemason, let's go. Let's help him slap himself a few times! "
Miao Yi, who was immersed in his madness, suddenly snapped out of it. He turned his head to look, and couldn't help but be stunned.
He saw the Lady Boss, the carpenter, and the stonemason appearing in his room without him noticing. The Lady Boss looked at him with a dumbfounded expression, her red lips slightly parted. She looked charming and adorable, as though she was also stunned by Miao Yi's act of slapping himself.
