Chapter 222: Physical Body Becomes Saint

The ice‑sculpted woman is merely a lingering remnant; Ye Liuyun estimates she uses Divine Sense to transmit techniques and other information, which consumes a lot!

The ice‑sculpted woman said again, "You should cultivate here for now; there's only one day left, then I'll take you to boost your Bloodline Power. Their Bloodline Power is still weak. You and Lei Long also have great room for improvement. I need to rest; don't bother me unless necessary!"

Ye Liuyun heard this, gratefully bowed again and said, "Thank you, senior, for your help!"

He reckoned that if the ice‑sculpted woman left again to take them to enhance their bloodline, she herself would soon be unable to hold on.

The ice‑sculpted woman waved her hand, opened an ice wall revealing a Cultivation Room inside, then without a word stepped back to her original spot, motionless!

Ye Liuyun did not wander, went straight into the Cultivation Room, steadied his mind and breath, and calmed his emotions.

Then he took out the Five Elements Spirit Beast Body and began body refining.

His Immortal Overlord Body had already been cultivated to the ninth layer, which is the final layer.

After completing this final layer, the Physical Body can become saintly, reborn in blood, immortal and undying!

Refining the Five Elements Spirit Beast Body is not slow, but absorbing the five elemental elements is more difficult for him.

His body's five elemental elements are already quite full; now he must refill and repair the five elements in every inch of skin, flesh, Meridian, and bone.

Thus this body‑refining proceeds much slower than absorbing True Essence.

It is a painful and lengthy task. Ye Liuyun persisted for five whole days. Each day his body endured a needle‑like pain from the inside out.

Although he had undergone many body refinements before, this was the most painful. In five days he passed out three times, each time the Ten Thousand Gods Command promptly revived him.

Consequently, his Soul also suffered great depletion. From body to Soul, he was extremely exhausted.

When he finally absorbed the last bit of five elements, the Immortal Overlord Body's ninth layer was fully cultivated. He didn't even have time to feel his body's power before collapsing into unconsciousness.

He didn't know how long he slept; when he awoke, his clothes were gone, and his limbs were again smooth, tender girl skin.

He slowly opened his eyes.

Lei Ming sensed his awakening, cheerfully shouted, "Little brother, you're awake! I've been watching over you for two days, worried to death! I didn't even know when you passed out!"

"I'm fine, just tired from body refining!" Ye Liuyun assessed his condition.

His Physical Body seems filled with endless power, and its defensive capability everywhere is immensely strong. Now his Physical Body is probably sturdier than ordinary holy soldiers.

Moreover, after the Immortal Overlord Body's enhancement, his Overbearing Heaven Fist should be even stronger!

Then he thought of Lei Ming and asked, "Why haven't you been cultivating?"

"I… I really can't absorb any more. I've done my best, no slacking! Then as soon as I came out, I found you on the ground, so I kept watching over you!" Lei Ming was clearly worried that Ye Liuyun would accuse her of slacking again and not cultivating properly.

This time Ye Liuyun surprisingly didn't scold her, and proactively pulled her into his arms.

It left Lei Ming momentarily stunned! "Little brother, what's happening? You're voluntarily hugging me? Am I dreaming?"

Immediately, her face flushed, and she tightly embraced Ye Liuyun.

"I'll never accuse you of slacking again. You don't need to worry; I'll never despise you!" Ye Liuyun comforted her.

"Mm! I knew it, little brother treats me best!" Lei Ming smiled gratefully, burying her head deep in Ye Liuyun's chest.

Ye Liuyun let her linger a while, then coaxed her to get up, saying he'd give her grilled meat. Lei Ming then let go of Ye Liuyun and put her clothes back on.

Ye Liuyun was also hungry, so he took out plenty of meat to grill, and the two feasted.

Afterwards, Ye Liuyun resumed cultivation.

His Soul, after enduring the body‑refining torment, made considerable progress. Thus he absorbed all the Divine Soul Power he had stored in the Thunder Fire Domain.

He felt the bottleneck of his sixth‑level soul master shattered suddenly, leaping another step. After absorbing these souls, his Soul became very compact and grew a layer larger.

"After returning to the academy, we'll go to the Crimson Soul Cave for training; we should soon break through to seventh‑level soul master!"

Ye Liuyun's heart brimmed with anticipation.

From then on, he continuously cultivated True Essence. The energy here is abundant, and he didn't want to waste it.

But each day he set aside time to accompany Lei Ming, grilling meat for her. This made Lei Ming as happy as a child every day.

Ye Liuyun no longer knows the exact time. He isn't sure how long he slept before Lei Ming found him, so they can only wait for the ice‑sculpted woman to awaken.

After awakening, the ice‑sculpted woman directly released Wu Qingcheng and Yu Er.

"Master." The two bowed together toward the ice‑sculpted woman.

"I am merely a lingering remnant, unfit to be your master. But worshiping my master's statue isn't wrong." The ice‑sculpted woman said contentedly.

Ye Liuyun sensed the commotion and hurried over with Lei Ming.

His gaze swept the scene, and he was greatly startled.

Wu Qingcheng's realm had entered the Sea Transformation realm and even advanced to Sea Transformation Second Layer! Yu Er had even broken through to True Essence Sixth Layer!

It's clear these two have greatly benefited these days.

The ice‑sculpted woman lamented, "Unfortunately there isn't enough time; otherwise we could let you improve further."

Seeing Ye Liuyun, the two completely set aside their cultivation progress and rushed into his arms.

"Master!"

"Young Master Ye!"

Ye Liuyun, while holding one, comforted them for a while.

Then he smiled and said to the two, "Shouldn't your titles be changed?"

Both were stunned. Wu Qingcheng was the first to react, whispering "Liuyun," her face flushed bright red.

Yu Er still insisted on calling him Master. "I can serve you as a maid for a lifetime; that's already more than enough!"

Ye Liuyun was about to speak, but the ice‑sculpted woman interrupted him!

"Alright! You still have plenty of time together! The Secret Realm will close in one day, I must hurry to take you to boost your Bloodline Power; perhaps your realms can still improve a bit."

The ice‑sculpted woman didn't want to disturb them, but time was simply insufficient.

"Fine. We'll discuss it after we leave; we can't waste the senior's goodwill!" Ye Liuyun also understood the urgency; missing this chance would mean losing it.

The ice‑sculpted woman had the four of them stand together, waved her hand, and swept them all toward the center of the Secret Realm.

It's unknown what realm the ice‑sculpted woman possessed in life; she was merely a lingering remnant, yet she still wielded such divine powers.

That speed was so fast that a distance of over a thousand li took less than half a quarter hour, and they arrived at the center of the Secret Realm.
