Lin Ray truly couldn't understand. He remembered that the cultivation art he imparted to his daughter back then wasn't the Mystic Ice Heavenly Art. But now …
This sort of technique seemed powerful, but it was actually quite powerful. However, because he had to endure the bone-chilling frost every day, as Linley saw it, this sort of technique was simply too cruel, and so Linley had sealed it away.
He would never have imagined that in just a short period of time, his daughter would actually cultivate the cultivation art he sealed away.
Lin Ray who was at the side was also stunned. He also didn't know about this. He had been out for a period of time and didn't return to the sect. Hence, he was completely unaware of this point.
"This lass, why …"
Lin Ray had a helpless expression on his face. He really wanted to know what this lass wanted to do exactly.
Within the Astral River Hall, Lin Xian`er had just awoken from her cultivation. But from her cold countenance, one could tell that she was extremely enraged, so enraged that she wanted to kill someone.
She was in the midst of cultivating and was at the most crucial moment. Who knew that she would be disturbed?
More importantly, the greatest taboo of cultivation was to be disturbed by others. But now, someone actually dared to disturb her.
Furrowing her brows, she opened her eyes and stared at the entrance as killing intent gushed forth from her.
"I don't care who you are. Since you disturbed this seat's cultivation, you have to pay the price."
Standing up, she released her cultivation. The temperature in the surroundings was already below zero, but at the instant Lin Xian`er released her cultivation, the entire space seemed to be frozen solid.
"BOOM!"
The sealed doors abruptly opened as Lin Xian`er's silhouette abruptly appeared at the entrance. Her gaze swept through the surroundings and at the instant she saw Lin Ray and Qin Wentian, her killing intent was instantly retracted. Even her cultivation art was retracted to the extreme.
And as for Lin Ray, he could feel the killing intent and coldness radiating from Xian`er. Lin Ray started, but at the instant when he saw her retracting her killing intent, his frozen countenance eased by quite a bit.
From Lin Xian`er's performance earlier, it was already clear that the Mystic Ice Heavenly Art had an effect on her.
"Fa … father?"
Lin Shan's reaction was extremely similar to when he first saw Lin Ray. Both of them spoke in a probing tone, as though Lin Ray's appearance was something inconceivable.
With regards to this, Lin Ray felt extremely guilty in his heart. His stiff face squeezed out a smile as he nodded, "I'm back."
"Swish!"
As the sound of Lin Ray's voice faded, Lin Xian`er's's to Lin Ray transformed. She stretched out her hands, and hugged Lin Ray.
Tears fell from her eyes and she said in a choked voice, "You're finally back. I haven't seen you for a long time."
After he finished speaking, his words became unclear. In the end, he completely let go of the pain.
At the side, when Lin Tian saw this scene, he retreated to the side and didn't disturb the parents. He sat there quietly and didn't say anything.
"Wu wu wu wu …"
Lin Ray's heart-wrenching cries drifted into his ears. Each and every cry was like a sharp dagger that pierced into his heart.
Since young, other than Lin Ray, this daughter of his was the most resolute. But now, she had become like this. Lin Ray understood that everything was his fault.
He stretched out his hands and hugged Xian`er, gently stroking her back and silky hair. Tears flowed from his eyes as he said, "Cry, cry, cry. Everything will be fine once you cry it all out."
Just like that, he quietly listened to Xian`er's cries. Lin Ray didn't stop her. He understood in his heart that it was a good thing for her to let go of all the grievances that had accumulated in her heart.
Time slowly flowed by. Lin Ray didn't know how much time had passed. He only knew that he was standing at the same place. The sun had already set and Xian`er's cries gradually stopped.
The entire Xuanzong Sect was bustling with activity because of Lin Ray's orders. At this moment, Lin Shan also knew of Lin Ray's orders.
This order was a merciless blow to him. He didn't think that his father would do such a thing.
He really wanted his mother to plead for mercy, but Ice stopped him, telling him the pros and cons of this matter. Lin Shan was still considered sensible. After hearing the pros and cons, he didn't say anything. In the end, he could only silently accept this fact.
In the Astral River Hall, Lin Ray sat on the steps in front of the hall. Lin Xian`er was lying on Lin Ray's lap. In addition, the golden rays of the western sun shone down on Lin Ray and Xian`er. This scene was extremely peaceful.
Looking at his daughter lying on his lap, Lin Ray spoke in a gentle voice, "Xian`er, I remember that when I left, I didn't give you this Mystic Ice Heavenly Force. But why did your cultivation art change after I returned? Not only that, the Mystic Ice Heavenly Force you're cultivating has already reached the fifth level."
Standing up, she looked at her father with a resolute expression on her face. "Father, you weren't around and I couldn't see you. But every time you encountered danger, your daughter couldn't help you. With Brother Yun taking care of the sect, I felt that I was too useless. So I wanted to cultivate faster."
"Well, back then when I was in the library, I saw the Mystic Ice Heavenly Force sealed by you. So …"
"So I broke the seal and after reading the introduction of the Mystic Ice Heavenly Force, I resolutely decided to cultivate this cultivation art. Am I right?" Lin Ray finished Lin Xian`er's sentence.
"Yes."
With regards to this, Lin Xian`er didn't hide it and boldly admitted it.
"You …"
At this moment, Lin Ray panicked. He didn't expect that the reason why Lin Xian`er wanted to cultivate this cultivation art was because of him, her father.
When he thought of how painful it would be to cultivate the Mystic Ice Heavenly Force, Lin Ray couldn't bear for his daughter to continue cultivating.
"Xian`er, why don't we do it this way. If you want to cultivate, father will give you an even stronger and better cultivation art."
"You should give up on cultivating this cultivation art. This cultivation art requires you to endure too much pain every day. Father can't bear for you to suffer every day. Do you understand?"
"During these years, the reason why father worked so hard was because I didn't want you to suffer, I didn't want you to be burdened. I wanted to be able to protect you all. Father …"
"Father."
Lin Xian`er suddenly spoke. Lin Ray's voice rang out, his eyes were filled with bewilderment as he stared at Lin Xian`er.
"Daughter wishes to cultivate this cultivation art."
A resolute expression flashed in Lin Xian`er's eyes. "For three hundred years, daughter had to endure the pain everyday. After all these years, daughter has already gotten used to such pain."
"In addition, daughter has comprehended many things from this cultivation art. Daughter wishes to continue cultivating, daughter …"
"Wish to cultivate."
Lin Ray, "…"
Lin Xian`er's words directly choked Lin Ray, causing him to have no way to continue speaking.
"Alright father, let's not talk about this matter anymore."
Lin Xian`er didn't wish to linger on this matter for too long. A smile appeared on her face as she changed the topic. "Oh right, father, why did you come back this time? How long will you be staying?"
"Ai!"
He understood Xian`er's meaning and let out a long sigh. "This time around, I came back to make some arrangements. In the future, I will bring you all to the Sacred World."
"What?"
"Sacred … Sacred World?"
"Father, could it be that you …"
Lin Xian`er's eyes were filled with disbelief as she stared at Lin Ray. She could vaguely guess something in her heart!
One must know that one had to be a Half-Step Saint at the Perfection Paragon Stage, or a Half-Step Saint, directly breaking through to the Saint Realm.
Now that her father said that he would be heading to the Sacred World, didn't that mean that her father's cultivation base had already transcended this world?
Staring at the shocked expression on his daughter's face, Lin Ray smiled proudly. He stretched out his hand and stroked the bridge of his daughter's nose as he spoke in a doting tone, "Little lass, you are truly intelligent."
With regards to the matter of his cultivation base, Lin Ray didn't intend to conceal it. And with regards to his daughter and his family, Lin Ray had no need to conceal it.
"You are right."
"Your father's cultivation base has already broken through to the Saint Realm, surpassing the limits of this world. The reason why I haven't left yet is because I intend to bring you all to the Sacred World."
"Hence, this time around, follow father. When we arrive at the Sacred World, father will find some cultivation resources for you, allowing you to break through to the seventh level of the Mystic Heavenly Art of Ice faster. After that, father will find a high-grade cultivation art similar to the Mystic Heavenly Art of Ice that doesn't have any side effects."
"In that case, you won't have to endure the bone-chilling cold every day!"
"I … can enter the Sacred World as well?"
With regards to Lin Ray's words, Lin Xian`er didn't pay attention to the latter part of his words. She was focused on the matter of entering the Sacred World.
"Of course you can."
At this moment, Lin Tian who had been standing at the side silently all this while walked over. He continued, "Young master's strength can never be compared to the strength of this world."
"Back then, young master brought our Xuanzong Sect to the Immortal World from another world. At that time, we had yet to meet the requirements to enter the Immortal World."
As he spoke, Lin Tian stared at Lin Ray, his eyes filled with worship and respect.
"Uncle Tian."
Upon seeing Lin Tian walking over, Lin Xian`er hurriedly stood up and clasped her hands in greeting to Lin Tian.
With regards to Lin Tian's existence, she was extremely clear. Ever since she was born, she knew how important Lin Tian's existence was.
Hence, no matter if it was Lin Shan or her, or even Lin Yun who had already broken through to the Empyrean Realm, they no longer dared to be impudent in front of Lin Ray.
"Haha, Xian`er, I haven't seen you in so many years. You are so beautiful. As the saying goes, a single glance is enough to topple an entire country. Compared to those so-called holy maidens and goddesses, you are so much more beautiful."
"Haha …"
Lin Tian's words not only caused Lin Xian`er to laugh, even Lin Ray was amused by Lin Tian's words.
He understood Lin Tian very well. Lin Tian had never been one to bootlick. But now, he was actually acting like this. Lin Ray felt somewhat bewildered, but he liked the current Lin Tian very much.
"Uncle Tian must be joking." Lin Xian`er bowed as she spoke humbly.
However, from the smile on her face, one could tell that she was very fond of such praise.
"Father, I …"
"ARGH!"
A scream of agony rang out from Lin Xian`er's mouth. The originally cold atmosphere, after Lin Xian`er's scream, plunged to the freezing point.
And this sudden surge of cold qi naturally originated from Lin Xian`er's body.
"Not good …"
Upon feeling the coldness, Lin Ray hurriedly hugged Lin Xian`er in his embrace, instantly releasing his cultivation to resist the cold qi.
"Little Tian, hurry up and seal this place up. Don't let anyone pass through here. Those who disobey will be killed without mercy."
"Right now, the side effects of Xian`er's cultivation art have appeared. This process is somewhat long, I have to use my own cultivation to suppress it."
Upon hearing this, Lin Tian's countenance turned heavy as he nodded his head. He understood the dangers involved.
"Don't worry, just leave this to me."
After speaking, Lin Tian didn't stay any longer. His silhouette flickered as he vanished from his original location. Not long after, the entire Jianghe Hall was sealed by a terrifying energy.
"Hehe, Little Tian, this fellow isn't simple either. To think that he actually learned such a terrifying sealing technique." After glancing at the seal, Lin Xian`er lowered his head and stared at his daughter who was wrapped in frost.
"Ai, this lass …" Lin Xian`er sighed.
The Mirage Spirit Blood Fire instantly rushed out, transforming into a weak wisp of energy that was controlled to the extreme by Lin Ray. After which, he placed his hand that was wrapped in the Mirage Spirit Blood Fire onto Xian`er's back.
"Swish!"
The Mirage Spirit Blood Fire entered Xian`er's body. Under Lin Ray's guidance, the Mirage Spirit Blood Fire began to circulate through Xian`er's meridians and meridians.
Although the Heavenly Force of Ice was terrifying, it was still nothing in front of the Mirage Spirit Blood Fire.
With the circulation of the Mirage Spirit Blood Fire, Xian`er's body, which was originally ice-cold, suddenly regained a trace of warmth.
"Heh, this lass is not bad. She has courage, I like it." The voice of the Little Dragon suddenly rang out. In the next instant, the Little Dragon appeared beside Lin Ray, its gaze landing on Lin Xian`er.
"You bastard, since you're here, you better think of a solution for me. How is my daughter? Is there any way to resolve the flaw of this cultivation art? "Looking at the Little Dragon, Lin Ray seemed to be grasping at a life-saving straw as he asked.
Looking at Lin Ray, the Little Dragon hesitated for a moment before speaking, "There is, but you have to wait until you enter the Sacred World. The system's Scripture Depository will allow you to access the second level of the cultivation art. Over there, you will find the solution to your daughter's cultivation art."
"The second level of the Scripture Depository?"
Lin Ray stared at the Little Dragon in bewilderment. He had entered the system's Scripture Depository many times, but he had never seen a second level of the Scripture Depository.
"Yes, the second level of the Scripture Depository."
With regards to Lin Ray's question, the Little Dragon rolled its eyes. "Who said that the Scripture Depository only has one level? Although it's only one level now, when you enter a higher dimension or when your cultivation reaches a higher level, the Scripture Depository will appear. You haven't seen it before."
"Si, after obtaining the system for so long, you still haven't figured out the layout of the Scripture Depository?"
Lin Ray was speechless.
With regards to the Little Dragon's question, other than being speechless, Lin Ray truly didn't know how to describe his current feelings.
With regards to the system, what he knew now was merely the tip of the iceberg. If he wanted to understand the system, hehe, he still had a long way to go.
"Hmm …"
Just as Lin Ray was in deep thought, the originally unconscious Lin Xian`er suddenly moved.
"Hurry up and return, don't delay my treatment of my daughter." Now that he knew and had a solution, it was useless for the Little Dragon to stay here. Not only that, the Little Dragon's soul was in a corporeal form and others could see it.
"Hmph, heartless."
Within the system, the Little Dragon couldn't help but grumble. However, Lin Ray couldn't hear it.
He retracted his thoughts and lowered his head to look at his daughter, his expression filled with concern. "Xian`er, how are you? Are you feeling better? "
The Mirage Spirit Blood Fire was still roaming freely in Lin Ray's meridians. Under Lin Ray's control, the Mirage Spirit Blood Fire wouldn't harm Lin Xian`er.
