Chapter 129: 【Taiyin True Water, Refining the Spirit with Ice and Fire】 (Second update, seeking votes)

The appearance of a new supernatural power gave Lu Runping an excuse to ask Xue Yunzi for demon blood.

【Taiyin True Water】: The ultimate water of extreme cold; a single drop can freeze all things.

If the Sun True Fire is the most Yang object between heaven and earth, then Taiyin True Water is the most Yin object between heaven and earth.

As for any ice-attribute spells, the end of the extreme is just such a drop of water.

A single drop of water, freezing space and time!

However, he is currently far from reaching such a level of power.

But even if he has only grasped a fur of this supernatural power, it is still an incomparably powerful existence.

After mastering this supernatural power, Lu Runping pondered for a while, and a day later, he arrived at Xue Yunzi's place of cultivation, located within a beautiful bamboo forest.

"Master, this disciple has a matter to request."

Xue Yunzi was somewhat surprised. This disciple was the one who gave him the least worry; for so many years, he had never caused any trouble, and every explanation was understood at a single hint. A situation where he actively came to ask for something had never happened before.

"Speak directly."

A few years ago, he had obtained the supernatural power seeds brought by Lu Runping and the other two, and now he could be considered to have gained a significant improvement because of them. In a certain sense, he, as the master, owed his disciple karma.

That made it even more necessary to take extra care of this disciple.

Upon hearing this, Lu Runping spoke:

"Disciple has recently been practicing the Moon Gazing Secret Method and felt the cold power of the moonlight. There are faint signs of sudden enlightenment, but the cold brought by the Six-Winged Frost Centipede prevents me from truly comprehending it. I specifically request Master to find me something containing the true intent of coldness.

Disciple believes that if there were blood of a Tribulation Transcendence Realm Six-Winged Frost Centipede, perhaps it would allow me to comprehend the profound method within."

Of course, he could not directly ask for the blood of a Demon Venerable, so he said he wanted the blood of a Six-Winged Frost Centipede.

And the strongest Six-Winged Frost Centipede in the Myriad Spirit Immortal Sect was only at the Dao Integration Realm, unable to meet the quality requirements for the object of enlightenment he demanded. Thus, the final destination would be the blood of the Ice Luan Demon Venerable in Xue Yunzi's hands.

Xue Yunzi revealed a thoughtful expression upon hearing this.

It was rare for this little disciple to make a request. If he, as the master, could not even satisfy this, it would seem too useless.

But the Six-Winged Frost Centipedes in the Myriad Spirit Immortal Sect could not meet the requirements. He did know of a few other ice-attribute demonic beasts, but how could a demonic beast of that level possibly bleed for him?

If they met, not treating him as a snack would already be out of respect for the Heavenly Imperial Immortal Sect.

Naturally, he thought of the blood of the Ice Luan Demon Venerable he had obtained years ago.

He had actually already planned to let Lu Runping use this blood. After all, this disciple was worth cultivating; he was blessed with good fortune and his cultivation speed was very fast. He estimated that he would break through to the Nascent Soul Realm mid-stage before his fourth disciple, Chen Songming.

But he had been worried that the child would not be able to withstand the energy within, so he had not given it to him.

Now that he happened to need something with the attribute of extreme cold intent, he might as well take it out.

Thinking this, he took out a jade gourd, placed it in front of Lu Runping, and said solemnly:

"Inside this is the blood of a Demon Venerable, which I extracted years ago from the remains of an ice-attribute Demon Venerable at the Land Immortal level of the Great Vehicle Realm mid-stage.

It contains extreme cold intent and also has immortal spirit energy; it is a true ice-cold attribute treasure.

Its effect on you should be better than the blood of a Tribulation Transcendence Realm Six-Winged Frost Centipede, but it is more dangerous.

Remember not to use it recklessly."

Lu Runping revealed a look of shock upon hearing this, then showed a joyful expression. He hugged the gourd to his chest and smiled at Xue Yunzi:

"Thank you, Master! I will definitely be able to comprehend the true intent of extreme cold!"

After saying goodbye, Lu Runping quickly left with the demon blood and returned to his cave abode.

He did not expect to obtain the final goal of this infiltration into the Immortal Sect so easily. With this demon blood, plus the newly mastered 【Taiyin True Water】 supernatural power, Lu Runping was confident that he could quickly temper his physical body to the level of a Superior-Grade Spirit Tool.

As for the matter of the clone comprehending the extreme cold intent, it was not difficult.

Although the clone could not obtain the 【Taiyin True Water】 supernatural power seed, since the original body had already mastered Taiyin True Water, the insights were shared, and the clone could also condense Taiyin True Water based on this insight.

Although in terms of quality it was far inferior to the Taiyin True Water used by the original body, it was still a successful condensation, which had already reached a very high level in terms of ice-cold attributes.

This cold power could not even be compared to that of the Dao Integration Realm Six-Winged Frost Centipede.

However, he has only just begun to condense it, and the amount he has mastered is too small to exert his strongest combat power; it requires a process of accumulation.

The clone was originally of Extreme-Grade Ice Spirit Root, so its cultivation speed would not be slow. Added to the insight into the 【Taiyin True Water】 supernatural power, his application and understanding of ice and snow spells had reached a higher level.

With the blessing of the ice-cold true intent, the attack power of even a casual ice spike was extremely terrifying.

Putting the clone's affairs aside, Lu Runping began to use the 【Demon Blood True Body】 method to cultivate his physical body.

The blood of an immortal bird contains immortal spirit energy.

Ordinary cultivators below the Dao Integration Realm could not digest such a blessing at all, but Lu Runping had the 【Swallowing Heaven and Earth】 supernatural power, so the immortal spirit energy could also be absorbed to nourish his body.

Lu Runping guessed that some of the top geniuses in the Immortal Sect would definitely receive the immortal energy cleansing from the Immortal Sect's Land Immortals at some stage before the Tribulation Transcendence Realm.

Because the benefits of this to a cultivator were too great.

It could strengthen the physical body and increase the probability of successfully transcending the tribulation; it could strengthen the divine soul and increase the talent for enlightenment; it could allow the body to adapt to immortal spirit energy in advance, shortening the time to introduce immortal spirit energy after completing the three tribulations.

Various benefits—and this was just what Lu Runping had realized himself.

And with the Immortal Sect having accumulated for such a long time, there must be more perfect applications.

His original plan was to find an opportunity to escape after obtaining the demon blood, but thinking that he could still compete for the top-tier treatment of the Immortal Sect, he abandoned his original plan.

With the support of the Immortal Sect's resources, it would undoubtedly be of great help to cultivate to the Land Immortal realm.

At most, he would only lose one clone, and besides, if a clone died, it could be condensed again, which was equivalent to no loss.

What was there to fear?

Nourished by the immortal spirit energy, Lu Runping found that when he used the Sun True Fire to temper his primordial spirit, the painful feeling was greatly reduced, and the recovery speed of his divine soul power also increased significantly.

He increased the intensity, letting the true fire burn even more vigorously.

Immediately after, he thought of giving his primordial spirit a bit of extreme enjoyment using 【Taiyin True Water】.

Two worlds of ice and fire.

He had a vague realization; this seemed to be a method of using the Dao of Yin and Yang to temper the divine soul. He quickly wrote it down to study it carefully.

Time flew by, and three months passed.

Three months could be called a year of suffering.

After all, that kind of tempering with extreme high temperature and extreme cold was really not something an ordinary person could enjoy.

However, the harvest was also huge.

His cultivation, which had not improved for many years, had made significant progress, and his divine soul cultivation was one step closer to entering the late stage of the Spirit Severing Realm.

However, the biggest harvest was the improvement of his physique. His physique had not only reached the level of a Superior-Grade Spirit Tool, but it was also not far from entering the ranks of Extreme-Grade Spirit Tools.

With an Extreme-Grade Spirit Tool physical body, every movement contains Dao rhyme and true intent; he could tear apart Spirit Severing Realm demonic beasts with his hands and shake Dao Integration Realm demonic beasts with his strength!

In the blink of an eye, three years later, a piece of news broke Lu Runping's stable cultivation life.
