In the Ice Phoenix Sanctuary, the snow is like a rainbow.
When the news of Yun Che's return spread, it did not cause any disturbance in the Divine Ice Phoenix Sect. After all, the news that everyone knew at the beginning was that the ancient horned dragon was successfully killed, Mu Xuanyin was injured, and he went into seclusion after returning, while Yun Che stayed outside.
Experience.
The people of the Divine Ice Phoenix Sect would only be surprised that he came back too early. After all, it was normal for a direct disciple to train outside for ten or eight years.
As for what happened in the God Burial Fire Prison, no one except the three Flame God Sects, as well as Mu Xuanyin, Mu Bingyun, and Mu Huanzhi knew about it. They only knew that the ancient horned dragon was killed and Mu Xuanyin was injured.
But the scene where Yun Che knocked down the ancient horned dragon with one sword, revealing its fatal flaw and saving Mu Xuanyin, will never be forgotten by anyone who witnessed it from the Flame God.
Returning to the Ice Phoenix Temple, even though he had only been away for half a year, Yun Che felt as if he was in another world. This was because from the moment he escaped, he no longer had the extravagant hope that he could return here alive.
As the highest holy land in the entire Snow Song Realm, except for Mu Xuanyin, only he could come and go at will. Even Mu Bingyun's visits were very rare. After making such a big mistake, he should have been ineligible to enter again.
here……
"Master...did she really not plan to kill me?" Yun Che muttered in a daze. He knew very well what an unforgivable mistake he had committed. Ordinary women would never forgive it, let alone that.
His master and the Snow Song Realm King who rules a realm...
"Are you so afraid of death?"
While Yun Che was melancholy, a cold and heart-breaking voice sounded in his ears.
Yun Che's whole body was still for a few breaths, and then he turned around, not daring to raise his head to look at the source of the sound, and bowed his head: "Disciple Yun Che, pay your respects to the master."
Mu Xuanyin was wearing an ice phoenix dress with snow feathers on her shoulders, but her extremely beautiful eyes revealed a cold and biting gaze: "Why didn't you run away this time!"
"..." Yun Che moved his lips, but was speechless for a long time.
The world became quiet for a while, with only the sound of falling snow remaining. Mu Xuanyin looked at Yun Che quietly. In the past, every time Yun Che worshiped her, he would never bow down like this. Whenever he was facing her, he would
I can't suppress the almost innate rebelliousness.
but……
Others bow down to her because they are afraid of her.
And Yun Che... Mu Xuanyin didn't feel fear, but felt deep guilt.
Her eyes shifted unconsciously and could no longer maintain their previous coldness. Fear was for herself, but shame was for the other person.
"That's all."
The voice in my ears slowed down, and a soft sigh could be heard faintly: "Although you have made a big mistake, you saved my master's life first, so the merits and demerits are equal to each other. Get up."
"..." Yun Che was stunned for a moment, unable to believe his ears. He stood up in a daze, but still lowered his head, because he didn't know how to face it after what happened.
Mu Xuanyin.
After a while, he heard no more sounds. Finally, he raised his head slightly, and what he saw was a beautiful back bathed in the snow.
Compared to Yun Che, Mu Xuanyin may be even more difficult to face him.
The world became quiet again. This time, even the sound of falling snow could not be heard at all. Mu Xuanyin was silent for a long time. Of course, Yun Che did not dare to speak. In his two lives, he had never encountered such a cold and helpless person.
situation.
Finally, Mu Xuanyin slowly turned around, her icy eyes regained the coldness of a cold pool: "Take out the unicorn horns, the horned dragon's heart, and the Emperor's Immortal Grass you just got."
"Yes." Yun Che responded quickly, without asking why, taking out the unicorn horn, the heart of the horned dragon and the emperor's fairy grass one by one.
The unicorn horn is huge and heavy, emitting a slight but simple and heavy atmosphere.
The heart of the horned dragon was still beating violently, and every time it beat, it would emit extremely hot flames. After being taken out for a few breaths, the surrounding large snowfields had melted significantly.
The Emperor's Immortal Grass was wrapped in the purifying light of the Sky Poison Pearl, and its aura did not leak out.
Mu Xuanyin glanced at it and said coldly: "In this case, only the Nine-Star Buddha Jade and the Wood Spirit Pearl are left."
Yun Che did not hesitate and said quickly: "Master, actually, the Nine-Star Buddha Jade and Wood Spirit Pearl disciples have also obtained them."
"?" Mu Xuanyin's icy eyebrows moved slightly.
After Yun Che finished speaking, he also took out the Nine Star Buddha Jade and the Wood Spirit Bead.
The nine-star Buddha jade and the wood spirit bead appeared. The strange light and aura caused obvious changes in Mu Xuanyin's eyes. Especially when her spiritual sense swept over the wood spirit bead, she said in surprise: "Perfect wood
Spirit beads? Where did you get them?"
"Back to Master, this Wood Spirit Bead..." Thinking of the Wood Spirits who died because of him, Yun Che's voice lowered slightly: "The disciple bought a young Wood Spirit from an underground chamber of commerce in the Black Ya Realm.
But he couldn't bear to take the wood spirit bead by force, and instead sent it back to the place where he was hiding. This wood spirit bead was given by a senior wood spirit there."
"..." Mu Xuanyin was obviously startled.
"This nine-star Buddha jade was accidentally picked up by the disciple from the body of the Black Ya Realm King."
"Did you find the body of the Black Ya Realm King...?" Mu Xuanyin frowned again, apparently even more incomprehensible.
"It is indeed a bit unbelievable, but the disciple dare not lie. By the way, the Void Fantasy Stone that the disciple almost crushed in the secret realm was also picked up from the body of the Black Ya Realm King together with the Nine-Star Buddha Jade." Yun Che said truthfully.
"……I see."
Mu Xuanyin already understood that the Nine-Star Buddha Jade and the Void Fantasy Stone that Yun Che had "picked up" were actually the tricks of Princess Caizhi.
Including the Black Ya Realm King, even if she didn't kill him, it must be related to her.
With a flick of the snow sleeve, the unicorn horn, horned dragon heart, emperor fairy grass, as well as the Buddhist jade and wood spirit beads in Yun Che's hand all disappeared in an instant, and were put into the portable space by Mu Xuanyin without any reaction from Yun Che.
time.
"Obtaining a Qiankun Five-Jade Pill is as difficult as climbing to the sky, but it is not easy for you to gather all the 'Five-Jade Pills' in such a short period of time." Mu Xuanyin changed his tone slightly: "But, you're big
Although the mistake can be undone, the mistake of betraying the master and the sect and running away cannot be easily forgiven! You no longer need to think about this Qiankun Wuqiongdan!"
"..." Yun Che opened his mouth, then lowered his head: "Yes."
"There are less than two years left before the Mysterious God Conference." Mu Xuanyin continued: "With your original cultivation level, it is absolutely impossible to enter the Divine Tribulation Realm before the Mysterious God Conference and rely on cultivation.
Do it.”
"However, since you have obtained the Ice Phoenix Yuan Yin as your master, and are now in the Divine Soul realm, it may not be impossible without relying on the Qiankun Wuqiong Dan, and with the support of your master!"
The words "Ice Phoenix Yuan Yin" came out of Mu Xuanyin's mouth, and Yun Che suddenly felt excited. He raised his head suddenly, only to find that Mu Xuanyin's face was actually cold and silent, without any waves, as if he just said it.
A very ordinary thing.
"You are just entering the divine way for the first time. You have not yet fully comprehended the realm of the divine essence, but you have stepped into the divine soul realm in one step. The divine way is not comparable to the mortal way! Although your profound power has skyrocketed, it will also cause endless troubles, and it is difficult to understand the profound way.
The lag will make your future entry a hundred times more difficult. If you are forcibly supplemented by the Qiankun Wuqiong Dan, although you can reach the sky in one step, the consequences will be far more serious than you imagine... Even if you are the evil god's profound veins!"
Mu Xuanyin's eyes glanced at Yun Che: "You must have noticed it too."
"Yes." Yun Che responded obediently. After Mu Xuanyin's Ice Phoenix Yuan Yin achieved the Divine Soul Realm overnight, his profound strength stopped at the second level of the Divine Soul Realm. For half a year, he barely made any progress.
"From today on, you are not allowed to step out of this sacred realm! Two hours a day for enlightenment, two hours for mind enlightenment, two hours for body tempering, and six hours for cultivation."
"My teacher will teach you to re-enlighten the divine way and re-cultivate the Ice Phoenix Divine Conferment Canon. Apart from practicing, you are not allowed to see anyone, go anywhere, or have any distracting thoughts. Every word, deed, and action must be followed by my teacher.
I mean, there shouldn’t be any disobedience.”
A pair of icy eyes showed no emotion, only majesty and harshness that could not be resisted or questioned: "This is the punishment you deserve, and it is also your only chance to enter the Eternal Sky God Realm. You must obey it, and you must obey it if you don't!"
Although Mu Xuanyin was quite strict with him in the past, she never restricted his freedom, and her strict orders at this time were completely equivalent to imprisoning him in the Ice Phoenix Sanctuary and her will.
.
Yun Che was stunned for a moment, but he said seriously: "Yes, I will obey my master's orders."
"That's the best!" Mu Xuanyin seemed surprised that Yun Che actually agreed without any objection. Mu Xuanyin glanced at him silently: "Go to the Netherfrost Heavenly Lake to temper your body for three hours, and then come to the temple to find me!"
As the voice fell, Mu Xuanyin flew up. As her figure turned around, the direction of the flying snow in the entire sanctuary changed accordingly.
"Master," Yun Che suddenly said, with questions and concerns in his words: "Has your injury... been healed?"
Considering Mu Xuanyin's severe injuries and damage, coupled with the loss of her Yuan Yin, even if she recovers from her injuries, her profound energy will definitely be greatly reduced. Therefore, her aura should be much weaker than before.
However, the feeling that Mu Xuanyin brought to Yun Che at this moment was even more misty and hazy than before.
Mu Xuanyin stopped, without looking back, and said calmly: "In my body, I have the ice phoenix spirit given by my ancestors. I have practiced hard for ten thousand years before awakening three of its divine powers... But in just half a year, I have suddenly...
Seven points of awakening! Not only are all your injuries healed, but your profound strength is far better than before, so you don’t have to worry too much, just take care of yourself."
With his back turned, Yun Che did not see the extremely complicated look in Mu Xuanyin's eyes when he said these words.
Yun Che's face showed surprise, and then he said in surprise: "It must be that the master's desperate efforts at that time stimulated the awakening of the soul. The master must have been blessed by heaven and earth, and he was a blessing in disguise."
"..." Not only her eyes, but Mu Xuanyin's breathing paused for a few breaths, and then she snorted softly, floating on the snow, and her figure quickly disappeared into the flying snow.
And a void fantasy stone fell from the sky and landed lightly beside Yun Che.
After learning that Mu Xuanyin was not only unharmed, but that her profound strength had even increased, Yun Che felt sincerely happy in his heart. He breathed a heavy sigh of relief, sat down on the snow, picked up the Void Fantasy Stone at hand, and his whole body changed.
It was extremely easy.
Since his "escape", the two boulders that had been weighing on his heart fell at the same time and dissipated.
Not only was the master's body and cultivation intact, but he even forgave him so easily...
There was no murderous intention towards him, and even anger was almost invisible.
Compared with the extremely heavy worries, guilt, and hesitation during this period of time... this result was like a dream, so beautiful that he couldn't believe it.
"Master actually forgave me, hey..." Yun Che couldn't help but laugh. He raised his head and muttered to himself happily: "If it were someone else, with Master's temperament,
I must have died ten thousand times a long time ago. It seems that I underestimated myself too much. As expected, for a disciple as good as me, no matter how big a mistake he makes, Master will definitely not be willing to kill me."
