66: Chapter 66 The Personal Instructions of the Two Ice and Snow Emperors
"Qingci." Mu Qingci was meditating and gaining insights when the Ice Emperor's voice echoed in his spiritual sea.
"What is it, Senior Ice Emperor?"
Mu Qingci's figure appeared in the spiritual sea, looking at the Ice Emperor with confusion.
"Go outside the city now. Xue'er and I have something to tell you."
Without a moment's hesitation, Mu Qingci immediately opened the window. A pair of pitch-black wings unfurled from his back, and he transformed into a black meteor, flying toward the outskirts of the city.
Although Star Luo City had spirit tools for detecting high-altitude flight, with the Snow Empress helping him mask his aura, those spirit tools couldn't detect him at all.
Half an hour later, Mu Qingci landed in a small forest in the suburbs.
"Senior Ice Emperor, what is the matter?"
Mu Qingci opened the Undead Semi-Plane, and the Snow Empress emerged.
The Ice Emperor's soul form appeared before him.
"Qingci, ever since I sacrificed myself, you haven't used any abilities related to the ice attribute. Today, I intend to teach you some techniques; consider it the personal teachings from Xue'er and me."
Upon hearing this, Mu Qingci immediately became serious.
He hadn't used ice-attribute abilities simply because he wasn't proficient in controlling them; one could even say he was extremely unfamiliar with them.
By comparison, he was very proficient in controlling both light and dark attributes, which was why he used those two elements in normal combat.
"I have been able to see the outside World from within your spiritual sea. Seeing that you can skillfully utilize both light and dark attributes, I knew that your talent for attribute control is extremely high. It is most appropriate for you to inherit the mantle of Xue'er and me."
The Snow Empress, standing to the side, nodded in agreement.
"Now, release your second Spirit."
Mu Qingci obeyed.
As a staff interwoven with black, white, and gold appeared in his hand, the phantom of the Necromantic Holy Law God emerged behind him.
Then, a blood-red spirit ring with four golden patterns appeared.
The pressure emitted by the spirit ring instantly enveloped the entire small forest and even began to spread outward.
The Snow Empress gently waved her jade hand, and vast Soul Power surged out, forming a barrier around them to prevent the spirit ring's might from leaking out.
"Although your Spirit does not contain the ice attribute, I am the possessor of Ultimate Ice, the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion." When the Ice Emperor said this, her tone carried obvious pride and arrogance. "Therefore, after I sacrificed myself, your Spirit naturally acquired ice-attribute abilities. Show it to me and let me see what level you have reached."
Mu Qingci nodded, then slowly raised his right hand. With a thought, countless ice-attribute natural energies gathered at his palm, eventually forming an ice spike about three feet long.
The Snow Empress sensed the intensity of the ice spike and stated her conclusion: "It is still a little bit away from Ultimate Ice."
There was no help for this, as the Necromantic Holy Law God Spirit did not possess the ice attribute.
It was only because of the sacrifice of a top-tier ice-attribute beast king like the Ice Emperor that the Necromantic Holy Law God Spirit could possess ice-attribute abilities, but reaching the level of the Ultimate Ice that the Ice Emperor possessed in life was somewhat difficult.
However, in this special situation, it was not impossible to acquire the Ultimate Ice attribute later; it all depended on Mu Qingci's own fortune.
The Ice Emperor nodded, as if everything was within her expectations.
"It does not matter. Even if it hasn't reached Ultimate Ice, it is fine. At the current level, it is enough to surpass the vast majority of ice-attribute Spirit Masters. One could say that as long as you don't encounter Spirit Masters with Ultimate Ice or Ultimate Fire, the ice-attribute ability your Spirit possesses is no different from Ultimate Ice."
After understanding the situation, the Ice Emperor began to prepare to teach Mu Qingci alongside the Snow Empress.
"Qingci, in truth, the control of different elements all shares the same underlying principles. Now, I will demonstrate it for you once. Let's see how much you can comprehend."
After saying this, the Snow Empress walked to an open space in front.
Within her ice-blue beautiful eyes, white light seemed to flow, and the Snow Empress's body slowly floated into mid-air.
The Ice Sky Snow Maiden, a snow Spirit born of nature—she was the messenger of ice and the empress of snow.
The ice-attribute elements between heaven and earth formed an ice-blue vortex around the Snow Empress, making the forest feel like an ice cellar.
Mu Qingci watched intently. Combining this with the methods taught by Long Xiaoyao, he seemed to have gained some insights.
The Snow Empress's demonstration was not yet over.
She waved her slender hand, and countless ice elements began to gather toward her palm.
Those ice elements were continuously purified, condensed, and purified again, eventually transforming into Ultimate Ice elements.
An ice-blue longsword appeared in the Snow Empress's hand. The pressure it emitted carried a cold and arrogant sword intent, causing Mu Qingci's sword heart to tremble violently.
The Ice Emperor was one with Mu Qingci, so at this moment, she could also feel his state.
"That is one of Xue'er's three famous ultimate techniques, known as the Emperor Sword. Emperor Sword, Ice Cold Unparalleled!"
As the Ice Emperor introduced it, she seemed to recall the domineering image of the Snow Empress using this move to dominate the Far North and repel foreign enemies.
Mu Qingci observed carefully, and his understanding of ice-attribute control increased by a few points.
The Snow Empress descended slowly, her expression remaining cold.
"How is it, Qingci? Do you understand?"
Mu Qingci nodded. "I roughly know the principle. Let me try."
His broad wings unfurled from his back, carrying him into mid-air, where the ice elements were much denser than on the ground.
Recalling the Snow Empress's actions from just moments ago, Mu Qingci began to circulate his Soul Power.
"Qingci, if you use my Spirit Bone as a medium for your Soul Power, you can temporarily unleash the might of Ultimate Ice."
Mu Qingci nodded. On his left arm, the Ice Emperor's Spirit Bone began to shine with ice-blue light, and the forest, which had just begun to warm up, once again became cold as an ice cellar.
Mu Qingci moved his mind. Just as the Snow Empress had done, he began to mobilize the ice-attribute elements in the air.
He slowly raised his left hand. At this moment, the Soul Power emitted from his left palm, under the enhancement of the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion left arm bone, temporarily became Ultimate Ice Soul Power.
The ice elements in the air, as if seeing their monarch, gathered toward Mu Qingci's left hand.
An ice-blue longsword formed in Mu Qingci's left hand.
However, what Mu Qingci condensed could only be called an ice sword; it was still a far cry from the Snow Empress's Emperor Sword.
"Humans are indeed the creatures with the highest talent in this World. Now, I believe more and more that you can truly reach that realm."
For Mu Qingci to learn it just by watching, even the Snow Empress couldn't help but feel surprised by his talent.
Returning to the hotel, Mu Qingci began to recall and digest what he had just learned.
A brand-new idea appeared in his mind.
Since he controlled multiple elements simultaneously, why not research some element fusion techniques like Gu Yuena to increase his means and trump cards?
Thinking of this, Mu Qingci no longer had the heart to cultivate; he immediately got up and began to experiment.
