Chapter 140: 【Reviewing the Old to Learn the New, Ice Soul Divine Light】(First update, begging for...)

Tang Shiyun raised her hand and pointed, and a cyan-white Treasure Mirror flew out, striking the giant ice spear, causing the ice spear to crack inch by inch.

However, immediately following, a single drop of water flew out from the shattered ice fragments and struck the tip of the sword.

In an instant, Tang Shiyun's body stiffened, and she saw a layer of frost instantly spread from the sword tip, traveling along the sword body and covering Tang Shiyun's body in the blink of an eye, turning her entire person into an ice sculpture.

Even at the moment the ice sculpture formed, Tang Shiyun's consciousness fell into a state of rigidity.

If thought stops, then one is truly powerless to resist.

It was as if she were dead.

The next moment, the frozen state was lifted, and Tang Shiyun looked at Lu Runping standing opposite her, still feeling a lingering fear.

"Fellow Daoist truly has excellent methods! Such a Spell, and this level of attainment in the Ice Cold True Intent, has already surpassed my own. I am impressed!"

In the field of ice-elemental arts, the Ice Soul Divine Palace had always considered itself the premier house in Donghua Zhenzhou; although no Land Immortal had appeared, even a Land Immortal would not dare to force their way in here.

Above the glaciers, relying on the Ice Soul Divine Palace's arrays and secret techniques, it was not impossible for several Tribulation Transcendence Heavenly Monarchs to join forces and contend against a Land Immortal.

But Tang Shiyun had to admit that although her cultivation base surpassed his, his mastery of the Extreme Cold True Intent was far inferior to his.

She could not say exactly how large the gap was, but at least regarding this move of his, she felt that even her senior sister at the late stage of the Dao Integration Realm would be unable to block it; as for whether a Supreme Elder of the Tribulation Transcendence Realm could handle it, that was not something she could speculate.

"Fellow Daoist is too kind, I only have a small amount of talent. Let us exchange a few more moves; only comparing True Intents is not quite satisfying enough."

Afterward, the two fought for another two hours. After this bout of sparring, Lu Runping gained some understanding of the Ice Soul Divine Palace's Spells; they were indeed very brilliant, at the very least far more exquisite than the ice-elemental Spells mastered by the Tianyu Immortal Sect.

A Spell itself is also a way of utilizing spiritual power; if one could study it deeply, it was possible to form a Supernatural Power.

However, not everyone had that kind of talent; most people simply used them as tools.

The two returned to the palace to continue drinking tea.

Tang Shiyun spoke up:

"If Fellow Daoist is not satisfied, you may stay here for a few more days, and we can spar once every day."

Lu Runping happily agreed, and so they sparred for another five days. Afterward, once a sparring session was completed, Lu Runping praised the exquisite nature of the Ice Soul Divine Palace's Spells, and Tang Shiyun took the opportunity to suggest that he stay and join the Ice Soul Divine Palace to learn the Ice Soul Divine Palace's Spells.

He pretended to ponder, politely declined, and finally, because the other party's hospitality was hard to refuse, he agreed.

He successfully joined the Ice Soul Divine Palace.

After carefully understanding the Ice Soul Divine Palace, Lu Runping deeply felt that this was a good place for quiet cultivation.

The Ice Soul Divine Palace was far from strife, and most Elders did not concern themselves with affairs, focusing solely on cultivation.

Every fifty years, one person would be drawn from the Dao Integration Realm Elders to serve as a Rotating Elder to manage the affairs of the Divine Palace, while the others only needed to continue their cultivation.

In the tens of thousands of years of the Ice Soul Divine Palace's heritage, not a single Land Immortal had appeared. They had been working hard, wanting to cultivate a cultivator of the Land Immortal Realm, so all kinds of resources were open, allowing everyone to make full use of them.

Moreover, as long as one had an Ice Spirit Root and had joined the Ice Soul Divine Palace for a full sixty years, one could enter the 【Bingpo Mijing】 and have the opportunity to obtain the inheritance of its highest secret technique, the 【Ice Soul Divine Light】.

Generally speaking, the minimum cultivation base to obtain this inheritance had to be at or above the Nascent Soul Realm.

Lu Runping felt even more that he had come to the right place.

He threw himself into the study of the Ice Soul Divine Palace's ice and water-elemental inheritance Spells; with the help of the Treasure Mirror, his learning progress was very fast.

Time flew by, and a short fifteen years passed; the time had come to the year 840 of the Supernatural Power Era.

A new Supernatural Power appeared, and this Supernatural Power made Lu Runping feel extremely pleasantly surprised.

【Reviewing the Old to Learn the New】: Reviewing knowledge already mastered allows one to continuously gain new insights. Mastering this Supernatural Power means there are no bottlenecks in learning any Spells or the like.

This Supernatural Power was simply superb!

As long as there was a foundation, one could continuously improve without any bottlenecks; what was needed was time and persistent effort.

If everything in this world could be achieved just by working hard, then there would be no difficult tasks.

Because Lu Runping was young, had little life experience, and had little cultivation experience, he did not have much of an advantage when learning Spells, and the effect of his improvement was not very obvious. But with this Supernatural Power, every day, every moment, he had new gains.

Although it was only a little bit, many drops make an ocean; quantitative change leads to qualitative change.

This process of continuously acquiring new knowledge and generating new insights was very fascinating.

On the other side, in the Baisheng Mijing, the clone continued to challenge.

Because the insights of the clone and the main body were shared, after the main body mastered powerful ice-elemental Spells, the clone also mastered stronger combat power.

It was able to continue challenging upward.

But after the sixtieth match, it stopped once again.

Because the enemies it would face in continued challenges did not give him confidence; now was not the time to let the clone die, or rather, Lu Runping also wanted to truly pass the Baisheng Mijing and obtain that opportunity for insight and improvement.

The clone had entered the Nascent Soul Middle Stage four years ago; this speed was not slow, but it was still far from the strength required to clear one hundred battles.

According to Lu Runping's analysis of the current increase in combat power levels of the battles encountered, to truly win one hundred victories, one who entered here at the Nascent Soul Early Stage needed at least the strength to crush the late stage of the Spirit Severing Realm.

You could choose to break through to the late stage of the Spirit Severing Realm and then rely on combat power to crush them, but this was indeed an incomparably long process.

More heaven-gifted geniuses would still choose to fight above their level; after all, essentially, one was still facing opponents at the Nascent Soul Early Stage, just that the number had increased significantly.

Lu Runping entered the Baisheng Mijing with the strength of the Nascent Soul Early Stage; by the one-hundredth match, the enemies he had to face were still at the Nascent Soul Early Stage.

But the number was a terrifying figure, and they did not charge in all at once or fight chaotically, but would form various arrays to exert extremely powerful strength.

Therefore, the energy required to clear this secret realm was too great.

Lu Runping did not lack time; he could just use the secret realm to test the Spells he had just learned and the content he had comprehended.

The main body learned comfortably in a peaceful environment, while the clone tempered its combat skills between life and death; this was truly a very stable and reasonable way to develop.

A cultivator at the early stage of the Dao Integration Realm has a lifespan of 3,600 years, and Lu Runping, with multiple Supernatural Powers added to his body, had consumed twelve Dragon Elephant Fruits to increase his lifespan by 1,200 years. Added to his success in body refinement, his lifespan was already 5,800 years. He was only a little over a hundred years old and had plenty of time to spend.

The Ice Soul Divine Palace's tens of thousands of years of accumulation regarding the research of techniques was as vast as the sea.

Lu Runping was not picky; as long as it was knowledge, he would learn it, and at the same time have the Treasure Mirror record it to become part of the Lu Family's foundation.

Another forty-five years passed; sixty years had passed since Lu Runping joined the Ice Soul Divine Palace, and he had obtained the qualification to enter the 【Bingpo Mijing】 once.

Sorry, I'm a bit late.
