Chapter 446 The Ice Phoenix Bows Its Head [Requesting Monthly Tickets]

Snow-capped peaks, inside the palace.

Their icy lips glistened, and just as Lin Chang'an was lingering to reminisce, they suddenly parted.

At this moment, the Ice Butterfly Fairy's eyes revealed a look that was neither a smile nor a frown.

"Junior brother, how does your senior sister's food taste?"

It was that witch's torturous methods again, something Lin Chang'an was already used to. He savored the unique scent of those icy lips and nodded.

"It's a little cold, but not..."

Before Lin Chang'an could finish speaking, her icy lips fell again. Under the teasing gaze of the Ice Butterfly Fairy, it seemed she already knew what he was going to say and chose to shut him up.

However, at that moment, the Ice Butterfly Fairy made a hand seal, and the restrictions around the palace were immediately activated. Walls of mysterious ice crashed down with immense force, sealing off the surroundings.

Lin Chang'an was taken aback by this sudden turn of events, while the Ice Butterfly Fairy wore a mysterious smile.

"Junior Brother Lin, this is my cave dwelling now. All the restrictions are open. Even a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator wouldn't be able to escape. Aren't you afraid?"

However, Lin Chang'an smiled calmly, his gaze falling on the layer of pale frost at the Ice Butterfly Fairy's temples.

"Senior sister, if you've had enough of this, you should heal your injuries first. You used more than your limit of magical power this time, and the cold poison in your body has already begun to backfire."

Ice Butterfly Fairy received a message that the situation had changed and the speed at which she arrived was clearly abnormal.

Three more charged ice arrows followed, powerful but also consuming a large amount of mana, causing the cold poison within her body to backfire.

It could be said that this Senior Sister Bingdie did not care about her own injuries, which made Lin Chang'an feel somewhat complicated.

Originally, it was a good deal based on mutual benefit and friendship, but now it seems that this Senior Sister Bingdie has gone a bit too far.

"Alright, alright, I'm not going to mess with you anymore."

The Ice Butterfly Fairy smiled calmly, her previous alluring appearance completely gone. Her change of expression was swift, especially her demeanor.

At first, Lin Chang'an was somewhat overwhelmed by the ever-changing Ice Butterfly Fairy, but he gradually got used to it.

However, recalling the Ice Butterfly Fairy's domineering and icy demeanor under the moonlight, coupled with her aloof temperament, Lin Chang'an was still somewhat tempted.

Just as Lin Chang'an was about to begin healing, he discovered that the Ice Butterfly Fairy had not lifted the surrounding restrictions, but instead slowly raised her jade finger.

The crisp, elegant snap of fingers echoed, and in an instant, spiritual light flickered all around the sleeping quarters. The cultivation jade platform where the two were usually healing suddenly rumbled.

"This is!"

At this moment, Lin Chang'an seemed to have discovered something, and he narrowed his eyes. The next moment, the ground where they were located began to sink.

The shimmering spiritual light all around clearly indicated that this was a passageway leading to a secret chamber.

"Junior brother, next I'll show you my treasure."

Like a witch of a thousand faces, the Ice Butterfly Fairy now revealed an elegant and mysterious smile, her transformation so swift and seamless.

"treasure?"

Lin Chang'an looked suspicious, but every Nascent Soul cultivator has their own secrets, and he vaguely guessed that it was related to the strength that his senior sister had revealed before.

After all, the phoenix bird had secretly told him that it felt a chill that was restraining it, and it was too scared to come out at the time.

The descent speed increased rapidly, and the surrounding light flashed quickly, as if it were flowing in some kind of space.

However, Lin Chang'an was shocked. Such a grand undertaking meant this was no ordinary secret room.

However, the confidence brought by his Nascent Soul cultivation allowed Lin Chang'an to maintain a calm expression as he surveyed his surroundings, and he even had the mind to investigate this mysterious restriction.

After not detecting any other emotions on Lin Chang'an's face, the Ice Butterfly Fairy felt a mixture of disappointment and satisfaction; he truly was the person she had chosen.

“Junior brother, this matter is of great importance. This secret is known only to the Nascent Soul elders of our Spirit Control lineage. Currently, besides Senior Uncle Cheng and Senior Sister, you are the third person in the entire sect to know this.”

A gentle voice echoed in his ears. At this moment, the Ice Butterfly Fairy seemed to remember something, but she suppressed her emotions and looked at him gently.

These words almost clearly indicate that they completely regarded Lin Chang'an as one of their own, rather than a Nascent Soul cultivator who had joined the sect from outside.

boom!
Just then, the jade platform, which had fallen to an unknown depth, suddenly stopped, followed by a terrifying chill.

"This is……"

At this moment, Lin Chang'an stared in astonishment at the secret room before him, which turned out to be an exquisite ice palace.

All he could see was incredibly hard ice, and the crystal-clear ice surface reflected his and the Ice Butterfly Fairy's figures.

Inside the enormous ice palace stood a towering ice crystal tree, thirty feet tall, radiating a rich spiritual energy.

The spiritual energy fed back by this spirit tree has even materialized, and one can clearly see the spiritual energy condensed into the shape of ice and snow.

The spiritual energy here is ten times denser than outside, and it's pure cold energy.

For Nascent Soul cultivators, this place is a treasure trove of cultivation, but for the Ice Butterfly Fairy with her Profound Ice Spirit Body, it is a sacred place for cultivation.

"Could this be the legendary Frost Marrow Jade Crystal Tree, which only exists in the icy lands of the Arctic?"

The Frost Marrow Jade Crystal Tree is said to grow only on spiritual veins rich in cold energy, and is also known as the Ice-type Spirit Eye Tree.

"Junior brother is indeed very knowledgeable."

Upon hearing Lin Chang'an reveal the name of the spirit tree, Fairy Ice Butterfly couldn't help but show her appreciation.

She then led Lin Chang'an on a leisurely tour of this icy world.

Various exquisite Xuanbing decorations, jade slips stored in Xuanbing bookcases all around, and jade platforms for cultivation, etc.

“However, junior brother, although this jade crystal tree is extraordinary, it is only useful to special cultivators like me. For ordinary cultivators, it is at most a spiritual place for cultivation.”

Upon hearing this, Lin Chang'an's eyes twitched. Was this even human language?
Is this normal?
At this moment, he finally saw for himself that the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect—no, it should be the Spirit Control lineage—truly deserved its ancestors' reputation as one of the six major sects of the demonic path.

Their ancestors were wealthy; how could they not have left behind any heirlooms?

"That scoundrel from the demonic path colluded with Teng Changfeng to target this spirit tree. However, the Spirit Beast Sect is now just a villain who took advantage of the situation to steal from our Spirit Control lineage."

Little did they know that this was the true treasure of our Spirit Control lineage.

Walking in her own ice palace, the Ice Butterfly Fairy was like a high and mighty empress, and she gave the Spirit Beast Sect a cold and disdainful smile.

"Junior brother, do you know what this is?"

The Ice Butterfly Fairy led Lin Chang'an to the Jade Crystal Tree. As ripples spread through the space, they passed through the barrier without any hindrance and arrived at the foot of the spirit tree.

The roots of this towering ice crystal tree resembled exquisite works of art, deeply embedded in the ice-covered ground.

Within these densely packed ice crystal roots, however, there was a wisp of cold air emanating a pure and ethereal aura.

"Cold marrow!"

When Lin Chang'an saw the spiritual object inside through the cold air, he couldn't help but show a look of shock. This treasure was something that even Nascent Soul cultivators would covet.

Its value is extremely high; it is said to be one of the main materials for refining longevity-extending spiritual items that even Nascent Soul cultivators would covet.

"It's so big!"

This jade crystal tree grows on the cold marrow, so it can be considered a companion spiritual object. But what shocked Lin Chang'an was that the jade marrow was a bit too big.

The outer layer of the cold air is a piece of cold jade formed from condensed ice, which is three zhang in size and resembles an ice jade platform, with a throne of ice on top.

Inside the jade enclosure, a crystal-clear jadeite artifact, as large as a human head, can be clearly seen.

And within this crystal-clear chalcedony, a spiritual being has already been born.

At this moment, the Ice Butterfly Fairy slowly walked up and sat majestically on the Xuanbing Throne.

Suddenly, a phoenix cry came from within the cold marrow, and a three-zhang-long illusory ice phoenix circled in front of him.

"wrong!"

Lin Chang'an also calmed down from his shock; this transformed spirit creature was clearly all show and no substance.

Seeing that Lin Chang'an was able to wake up so quickly and even see the problem, the Ice Butterfly Fairy's cold arrogance disappeared, and she revealed a teasing smile.

"I was hoping to see my junior brother make a fool of himself, but it seems I underestimated him."

Then, the Ice Butterfly Fairy didn't hide anything and directly revealed the secret of this treasure.

"Junior brother should know about the grudges between our Spirit Control lineage and the Insect Demons, right?"

Lin Chang'an nodded slightly. How could he not know? It could be said that the once glorious Spirit Control lineage of the Six Demonic Sects fell from grace after experiencing the conflict between the Insect Demons.

"That legendary mature Soul-Devouring Insect is indeed terrifying. All kinds of ancient and strange insects of our Spirit Control lineage were devoured, and our secret techniques were stolen, causing us unprecedented damage..."

When talking about the sect's history, Fairy Ice Butterfly remained calm. So many generations had passed since her ancestors' glory, how could she possibly be too moved?

At most, you'll feel a pang of regret, and then you'll gradually get used to it.

In the world of cultivation, everything changes. Even the legendary Nascent Soul sects could not escape decline and extinction in the long river of time.

"We were defeated in the battle against the Insect Demon, but during that great battle, two kinds of spirit insects also mutated after consuming a large number of spirit-devouring insects. The founder of the Spirit Control lineage began to cultivate them."

One of them is the mutated ice silkworm. In order to cultivate stronger ice silkworms, they went to the Arctic glaciers and, by chance, discovered this treasure.

At this moment, the Ice Butterfly Fairy was even more moved, gently stroking the ice seat.

"This ancient and wondrous insect, the Ice Silkworm, feeds on the Cold Marrow and the Ice Leaves of the Jade Crystal Tree. When this piece of Cold Marrow was first discovered, it also contained a trace of the blood of the ancient Ice Phoenix's true spirit."

Within it, a transformed spiritual creature was born. The ice silkworm devoured the icy marrow containing the bloodline of a true spirit, and its body also gained the bloodline of an ice phoenix…

Through the explanation, Lin Chang'an suddenly understood.

No wonder the Phoenix Bird felt restrained at the time. Although the Golden Flame Divine Phoenix was strong, it was also restrained by the Ice Phoenix bloodline. This was a restraint based on attributes.

"Unfortunately, although the strongest mutated ice silkworm egg was cultivated, the Spirit Control lineage has already lost its power. Generations of people have lacked the suitable physique, or they were backfired during the refining of the ice silkworm egg and turned into ice sculptures..."

When the Ice Butterfly Fairy recounted this experience, she also felt somewhat fortunate.

Whether it was good luck or something else, she ultimately completed this legacy.

"So that's how it is. No wonder the spiritual essence of this cold marrow has been greatly lost, and even this transformed spiritual object is just a facade."

Lin Chang'an couldn't help but feel a little regretful. This treasure was mostly ruined, and it was only a top-grade spiritual item for the Ice Butterfly Fairy.

"Back then, there was a senior sister who refined the ice silkworm eggs with me. However, this senior sister developed feelings for a traitor from the Demonic Spirit Beast Sect who was lurking in the sect. In the end, I personally killed her."

However, the Ice Silkworm Gu within my body was taken away by the Spirit Beast Sect. Later, I successfully cultivated the sect's secret technique, breaking free of my cocoon and inheriting the ice-type bloodline divine power..."

When recounting this experience, the Ice Butterfly Fairy appeared calm, but it was undoubtedly a painful memory in her heart.

Lin Chang'an understood why this Ice Butterfly Senior Sister had been poisoned by the same source of cold poison.

"It seems that the Spirit Beast Sect failed in its attempt to cultivate the Ice Silkworm, and it was then refined into this Infant Poison targeting you."

Lin Chang'an had already guessed the source of the poison on the Ice Soul Cold Needle.

"That's right. At that time, my senior sister and I were still inexperienced in cultivation. We only knew that it was an ancient and strange insect called the Ice Silkworm, but we didn't know the specific reason."

The Spirit Beast Sect likely deduced from this that they possessed a Frost Marrow Jade Crystal Tree, and therefore, the previous incident involving Teng Changfeng was also due to their greedy desire to seize this item.

At this moment, all the clues came together, and Lin Chang'an understood.

No wonder that demonic Nascent Soul cultivator robbed the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect for no reason; it turns out this Cold Marrow was the culprit.

Even though it is known that the Cold Marrow has lost much of its spiritual essence and is no longer valuable for refining spiritual medicine, it is still a rare treasure.

These are used to cultivate spirit beasts with water or ice attributes, or to nurture cultivators; they are all spiritual objects for cultivation.

"It seems that Senior Sister Bingdie, you haven't been as decadent as outsiders think all these years. In fact, you've been secretly refining this Frost Marrow Jade Crystal Tree."

Looking at the Ice Butterfly Fairy sitting gracefully on the ice throne, Lin Chang'an couldn't help but nod in approval.

As expected, those who become Nascent Soul cultivators are all people with firm wills, so how could they be discouraged by a little setback?

The Ice Butterfly Fairy secretly refined the Frost Marrow Jade Crystal Tree in order to replenish her origin.

Just then, the Ice Butterfly Fairy's face turned deathly pale, and she coughed lightly, exhaling a burst of cold air, clearly caused by the backlash of the cold poison in her body.

"Senior Sister Bingdie, let's heal our wounds first."

Lin Chang'an glanced at the Frost Marrow Jade Crystal Tree. If he were to refine ice or water-based elixirs in the future, this would indeed be a valuable item.

"Junior brother, this is your senior sister's biggest secret."

Just as Lin Chang'an stepped forward and the two were about to heal each other, the Ice Butterfly Fairy suddenly revealed a seductive smile and gently kicked off her snow-white boots.

A cold, jade-like foot pressed directly against Lin Chang'an's chest.

"So, junior brother, what's your secret? Can you let your senior sister see it?"

A seductive voice echoed in his ears, and Lin Chang'an's gaze drifted slightly downwards as his exquisite jade feet slowly rose and began to tease him.

"Senior sister, junior brother is just like you, his biggest secret is this body." Lin Chang'an wasn't lying; his talent and the Xuan Tian Immortal Vine were all related to his own body.

However, upon hearing this, the Ice Butterfly Fairy chuckled.

"Junior brother is right."

Now that she has inherited the true bloodline of the Ice Phoenix, any offspring she gives birth to in the future will surely inherit her bloodline talent.

However, after hearing Lin Chang'an's words, she guessed that this junior brother should also possess a spiritual body.

"Senior sister, have you had enough?"

Lin Chang'an jokingly grasped the jade foot that was about to be placed on his chin, but unexpectedly, the Ice Butterfly Fairy, sitting on the ice crystal throne, leaned over and pressed him down.

"I thank you for helping me find my true self before. In return, I will also teach you a lesson."

The alluring charm of the high and mighty Ice Butterfly Fairy gradually faded, replaced by a cold and arrogant aura.

"In the end, strength is what matters in the cultivation world. Junior brother, your current cultivation level is still a bit lacking. Let your senior sister show you the scenery of the cultivation world."

With a raised eyebrow, the Ice Butterfly Fairy slowly removed her clothes, revealing her exquisite and beautiful body.

At this moment, Lin Chang'an's face stiffened. When he tried to turn over, he found that this person did not give him a chance at all.

Perhaps it was a realization of her true nature, or perhaps she didn't want to miss out, but the Ice Butterfly Fairy coldly and arrogantly moved closer.

If you can't beat them, then don't compete!
She couldn't afford to miss out on an opportunity like her master had.

You must hold onto what is yours tightly. Even if it runs away in the future, at least you will have had it and won't regret it like your master did.

……

Just as Lin Chang'an and Fairy Bingdie were healing in their cave, news of Lingyou Sanren's demise spread.

The Ice Butterfly Fairy of the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect and Lin Chang'an joined forces to severely injure Sima Ying, leaving him only able to escape with his Nascent Soul, while Lingyou Sanren was completely annihilated.

It had been a long time since a Nascent Soul cultivator had been directly killed in the Guardian Alliance, and the news made many Nascent Soul cultivators secretly nervous.

At the same time, Lin Chang'an's identity as a sword cultivator was also exposed, and there were also rumors that the Ice Butterfly Fairy was not completely crippled as originally rumored.

Many forces have once again taken notice of the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect. Judging from the combat power displayed by the two individuals, even if Elder Cheng were to pass away, they would not be much weaker.

After all, there are different levels among Nascent Soul cultivators. Those like sword cultivators and Ice Butterfly Fairy are the kind who are more skilled in killing.

At the same time, Daqian took advantage of the situation and launched an offensive.

Although Lingyou Sanren's plan to incite internal strife within the Guardian Alliance failed, his death was not without its consequences.

……

Inside the forbidden area of ​​the Sima clan.

"hateful!"

A young face slowly opened its eyes, and then a ferocious expression appeared on its face, with a look of lingering fear in its eyes.

"We almost didn't make it back! That Ice Butterfly bitch actually recovered her original form!"

Within the blood-red forbidden area, the young man's aura became erratic, sometimes exuding the aura of a Nascent Soul cultivator, and sometimes dropping to the Core Formation realm.

"Alright, it's already fortunate that your nascent soul, which was severely damaged, was able to be reborn through possession. As for the matter of True Monarch Ice Butterfly, if that person was really alright back then..."

Do you think it's normal for someone with such talent to not have broken through to the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm even after almost two hundred years?

A figure emanating black mist appeared within the forbidden area, also exuding the aura of a Nascent Soul cultivator, but it was not from the Sima clan.

"It seems that you have refined that Frost Marrow Jade Crystal Tree, but it's not so easy to recover from damage to your origin."

The man sighed inwardly. No wonder he couldn't find this spiritual item last time. The Spirit Control lineage is truly ruthless.

Then the man raised his head, looked at Sima Ying after he had been possessed, and said coldly:
"Your Sima clan has worked for our sect, and we will not treat you unfairly. These pills and this body are from your direct lineage, and they can help you recover your cultivation as quickly as possible."

Sima Ying's face was gloomy after the possession. Who would willingly possess their own direct bloodline if they had no other choice?

"My physical body, and that treasure, have also fallen into the hands of the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect."

Upon hearing this, the Nascent Soul cultivator from the demonic path frowned slightly, then waved his hand and said:
"Although it's a bit troublesome, this treasure is already damaged, and it was left behind by the ancient demon race. Frequent use will also taint it with a trace of demonic nature."

"Everything must be done with the bigger picture in mind. This plan has failed, and Lingyou has been exposed. It will probably be difficult to incite chaos within the Protectorate Alliance again."

When this matter was mentioned, a chill ran down his spine; it was so close.

However, Sima Ying's face was gloomy. He spoke nicely, but most of his skills were in these demonic wings. As a result, with the demonic wings lost, his combat power was greatly reduced.

Seeing Sima Ying's unpleasant expression, the man hesitated for a moment before offering words of comfort:

"Fellow Daoist, rest assured, the merits rendered by your Sima clan are evident to the six sects of the Demonic Path. This time, our sect has decided to assist your Sima clan's prodigy in achieving Nascent Soul cultivation..."

Upon hearing this, Sima Ying's gloomy expression softened somewhat.

"This plan failed, but it doesn't necessarily mean there's no chance."

Under the questioning gaze of the other party, Sima Ying gave a sinister smile.

"Back then, the Great Qian Dynasty was ambitious and had long harbored the desire to annex the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect and Corpse Valley. With the assistance of my Sima clan, we also took the opportunity to place many people in the two sects."

Corpse Valley is hard to say, but Lin from the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect is ultimately an outsider. As long as he stirs up trouble and internal strife..."

Listening to Sima Ying's plan, the man nodded secretly. If it succeeded, there might really be a chance.

"In that case, your Sima clan may proceed as they please. I have come here to take a branch of your Sima clan's bloodline into our sect."

After the shadowy figure disappeared, leaving only Sima Ying in the forbidden area, he couldn't help but let out a sinister sneer.

"Ice Butterfly! And that Lin fellow! This score has only just begun to be settled."

……

While the outside world was in turmoil following the fall of a Nascent Soul cultivator, the two instigators of all this were still cultivating and healing within the Ice Palace.

A cold mist lingered within the palace, and on the branches of the exquisite Frost Jade Crystal Tree, snow-white palace dresses and fragrant hairpins and ribbons hung haphazardly.

There was also a touch of crimson on the ice crystal throne.

After being suppressed for three whole days, Fairy Ice Butterfly's face was flushed. Although her cultivation was stronger than Lin Chang'an's, she was ultimately defeated in terms of endurance.

"Junior Brother Lin, you've kept this from your senior sister for so long! You're actually a late-stage third-order body refiner!"

At this moment, the Ice Butterfly Fairy was very unconvinced, but unfortunately, she was no match for the other's skills.

He could only obediently be pressed onto the ice seat, while Lin Chang'an provocatively said:
"Senior sister, I still prefer your previous unruly and domineering self."

"Okay! Okay!"

This scene infuriated the Ice Butterfly Fairy, who gritted her teeth in anger; she had truly been careless.

If she had known that this Junior Brother Lin was only at the third level of Body Refinement, she would have known when to stop and wouldn't have ended up in such a sorry state.

On the vast ice crystal throne, the two spirits merged, their brows touching. Although the Ice Butterfly Fairy was still unconvinced, she knew that healing was the most important thing.

As their eyes met, their energies merged, subtly healing the injuries within the Ice Butterfly Fairy's body.

Lin Chang'an also sighed softly and slowly activated the Xuan Tian Essence within his body.

Ultimately, this senior sister Bingdie had spared no effort to save him from harm, and he deserved to repay her kindness.

However, since it was damage to his very essence, unlike ordinary injuries, his magical power could recover quickly.

Therefore, he began to slowly activate the Xuan Tian Immortal Vine, drawing wisps of life energy from his body and feeding them back into the Ice Butterfly Fairy's body.

During her healing process, the Ice Butterfly Fairy was shocked to discover that the essence of her nascent soul was actually healing.

Moreover, this pure life force caused the Ice Butterfly Fairy to open the eyes of the infant spirit within her sea of ​​consciousness.

"Junior Brother Lin, you're being too reckless!"

"Senior sister, you should worry about your injuries."

During their dual cultivation, their consciousnesses connected, and Lin Chang'an's nascent soul spoke calmly.

This method of consuming lifespan to accelerate the growth of spiritual plants is also very beneficial for treating injuries.

【Lifespan: 366/2075】

Looking at his lifespan of over two thousand years, Lin Chang'an, based on the Ice Butterfly Fairy's injuries, knew he only needed to control the dosage.

Each treatment consumes several months of lifespan, and at that time, this life essence will also stimulate the Ice Butterfly Fairy's nascent soul energy to repair itself.

He estimated that he would lose at most three to five years of his lifespan before Senior Sister Ice Butterfly's essence would be fully restored.

In fact, the Ice Butterfly Senior Sister's original injury was not that serious. What was serious was another energy of the same origin attached to her primordial spirit, which was radiating death energy.

Otherwise, a Nascent Soul cultivator would have to expend at least several decades or even a hundred years of lifespan to truly heal from a fundamental injury.

Several days later, the healing was over, and the Ice Butterfly Fairy lay weakly in Lin Chang'an's arms. Her usual aloofness was gone, but after feeling the life force within her body...

She also felt somewhat guilty and powerless, and there was no trace of her previous aloofness, domineering attitude, and unruly demeanor as she taught Lin Chang'an that strength was the most important thing in the cultivation world.

"Senior sister, take this opportunity to heal your injuries first, and I will come to heal you later."

The proud Ice Phoenix lowered its head, but as Lin Chang'an was leaving, the Ice Butterfly Fairy finally raised her head and watched the figure depart.

When she was the only one left in the Ice Palace, the Ice Butterfly Fairy stared blankly into space.

Outsiders see her as a dazzling prodigy, but they don't see the thorns she has overcome along the way.

Betrayal by her senior sister, the heavy responsibility of the sect, and the plots of enemies in the shadows—beneath her cold and aloof face, she was full of vigilance towards everyone.

Even with Lin Chang'an, she knew that while there was affection, self-interest also played a significant role.

She wanted to keep this junior brother Lin, and after realizing her true nature, her thoughts were very simple.

If she gives birth to offspring, they will surely inherit her bloodline.

Proud as she is, she will not become subservient; she has her own path.

Unfortunately, everything was going according to her plan, but the outcome was unexpected.

"This debt of gratitude is a bit too much."

Finally, the Ice Butterfly Fairy sighed softly, a sense of powerlessness and frustration rising in her heart.

Why can't we just follow her plan? We're just friends, and I only want to preserve my bloodline for my own benefit.

……

Lin Chang'an, who had returned to his cave, took a deep breath.

【Lifespan: 366/2075】

[Realm Level: Early Nascent Soul Stage (16/100)]

"As expected of the primordial yin of a Nascent Soul cultivator, its cultivation level has actually increased by a bit."

Once you reach this level of cultivation, further improvement is not so easy.

Moreover, some physical constitutions and cultivation methods are suitable for dual cultivation, but others do not have such a great effect.

The pure Yin essence of the Ice Butterfly Fairy doesn't actually have any effect on this.

Lin Chang'an looked solemn as he felt the power nourishing his physical strength, greatly accelerating the effects of his body refinement.

"And this Ice Lotus Frost Flame!"

As Lin Chang'an raised his hand, a lotus seed slowly appeared in his palm. The next moment, a chilling white flame bloomed like a lotus flower.

As the terrifying frost flames pulsed, a pure, icy blue chill was added, significantly increasing the power of the flames.

"The power of the Ice Lotus Frost Flame has actually increased significantly."

Lin Chang'an can now clearly feel this terrifying chill, and his own spiritual infant is being nourished by this energy, which vaguely allows him to touch the bottleneck of his divine sense.

By this calculation, it seems that he didn't lose anything at all, and even made a profit.

"This debt of gratitude is a bit too much."

This made him sigh helplessly. He had only intended to repay the Ice Butterfly Senior Sister for sparing her energy to save him, but why couldn't things go according to plan?

After shaking his head, Lin Chang'an began to take stock of his spoils.

The Lingyou Sanren and the storage bag containing Sima Ying's physical body are treasures belonging to two Nascent Soul cultivators.

　Ahem, that's a sensitive word, it's not about driving.
