184: Chapter 184 The Iceberg Goddess Offers the Source of Dao, the Star Moon Saintess Becomes a Plaything

Inside the Qifeng Pavilion, the Spiritual Qi was so dense that it condensed into frost on the ground.

Su Yun sat cross-legged on the white jade bed, his eyes tightly closed.

Opposite him, Xiao Ruoxue also sat cross-legged, her snow-white robes matching her focused expression.

On that cold face, a strange flush now appeared, adding a touch of charm to her holy aura.

Her hands were pressed tightly against Su Yun's palms.

Xiao Ruoxue willingly allowed streams of pure Origin of Extreme Cold to flow continuously into Su Yun's body through their touching palms.

Meanwhile, Su Yun's consciousness was immersed within his vast Inner Heaven and Earth.

The clump of dark-gold Origin of Heavenly Dao obtained from the Lower Realm was currently suspended in the center of his Inner Heaven and Earth.

The Extreme Cold Law transmitted from Xiao Ruoxue's body merged into this Origin of Heavenly Dao.

Every time a strand of the Extreme Cold Law integrated, the dark-gold Origin of Heavenly Dao emitted a joyful hum.

The estrangement and repulsion originally caused by the different planes were rapidly dissolved and assimilated under the mediation of this top-tier Law of the Upper Realm.

Su Yun could clearly feel his connection with this Upper Realm world becoming tighter at an astonishing speed.

In the past, when he used the power of Laws, he always felt it was somewhat blurred and sluggish.

Now, that layer of obstruction was being wiped clean bit by bit.

The complex network of Laws in the Upper Realm became clearer than ever before in his eyes.

"So that's how it is... The so-called Space Law actually has over nine thousand subtle branches in the Upper Realm, each corresponding to a different method of spatial application."

"And the Law of Time—my comprehension from the Lower Realm was ultimately incomplete. Here, I can even touch upon the fundamental concepts of an instant and eternity..."

This feeling was incredibly satisfying!

The entire world became high-definition and smooth, filled with countless possibilities he hadn't dared to imagine before.

The Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Dao Imprint within his body was frantically devouring and analyzing these new insights into the Laws.

The ancient patterns on the surface of the imprint became increasingly complex and profound.

The Law shackles belonging to the Upper Realm's Heavenly Dao that had originally bound Su Yun as an ascendant from the Lower Realm...

...were instead treated as spoils of war, forcibly dismantled and devoured to become nourishment for his own growth.

"Phew..."

Xiao Ruoxue let out a long breath of orchid-scented air laced with cold, fine beads of fragrant sweat appearing on her forehead.

She could feel how terrifying the power within Su Yun's body was.

No matter how much of the Law of Origin she funneled over, it would be instantly devoured without a trace, not even causing a ripple.

She opened her eyes and looked at Su Yun, who was right in front of her. In those cold eyes, only deep shock and adoration remained.

This man... what exactly was his background?

She was a Half-step Immortal King, and the Extreme Cold Law she mastered was a top-tier existence in the entire Xiao Family, and even the whole Tianshu Divine Realm.

Yet in front of Su Yun, the Dao body and Laws she took pride in were easily toyed with in the palm of his hand.

Especially when her Divine Thought occasionally brushed against the vast Origin within Su Yun's body.

That suppression originating from the hierarchy of life made it impossible for her to even think of resisting, even giving her a preposterous illusion.

She felt as if she were receiving Su Yun's grace.

With every fusion of Origins, that supreme Heavenly Dao aura within Su Yun would feed back a tiny bit.

Although weak, it was enough to make Xiao Ruoxue's recently reshaped Frost Law even more stable and pure.

She even felt that the Immortal King Bottleneck that had troubled her for hundreds of years seemed to show a hint of loosening.

This discovery caused Xiao Ruoxue's heart to beat violently and uncontrollably.

Submitting to the strong was not shameful.

Moreover, this strong person could bring her the benefits she dreamed of.

Xiao Ruoxue's gaze changed; the last trace of reserve and pride belonging to the Xiao Family's goddess...

...completely vanished in the face of strength and irresistible temptation.

She lightly bit her red lip, a look of determination flashing in her eyes.

"Su Yun..."

Her voice trembled slightly as she called his name.

Su Yun slowly opened his eyes. In his deep pupils, a glint of gold and a wisp of cold air intertwined before returning to calm.

"How was it?" he asked indifferently.

"My Origin... take it all," Xiao Ruoxue's voice wasn't loud, but it carried an unquestionable firmness.

Su Yun's eyebrows twitched slightly as he looked at her with some surprise.

With a thought from Xiao Ruoxue, a diamond-shaped ice-blue crystal slowly emerged from between her eyebrows.

That was her Dao Source Core!

It was the crystallization of an Immortal King powerhouse's lifelong cultivation and Law insights!

Once the Dao Source Core left the body, it meant placing one's life and Soul entirely in the other person's hands.

With a single thought, the other person could make her Divine Soul perish.

"Think carefully."

Su Yun's tone remained flat, showing no emotion.

"By sacrificing your Dao Source, your life and death will no longer be under your own control."

"I haven't belonged to myself for a long time."

Xiao Ruoxue gave a mournful smile, yet there was a hint of liberation in that smile.

"From the moment you stepped into the Qifeng Pavilion, my life has been yours."

"I only ask... that you take me to see those higher vistas."

As she spoke, she took the initiative to slowly push the ice-blue Dao Source Core toward Su Yun's chest.

Su Yun looked at her eyes, which were full of expectation and adoration, and understood.

This woman had been completely conquered.

From body to Soul, there was no longer any possibility of resistance.

"Fine, I will grant your wish."

Su Yun wasted no more words and reached out to grab the cold Dao Source Core directly.

Boom!

An Origin of Frost more than ten times larger than before surged frantically into his body.

Su Yun let out a muffled groan, feeling as if his entire body was about to be burst apart by this sudden surge of power.

But the look in his eyes became increasingly excited.

"Good!"

With a thought, the dark-gold heavenly dao heart within his Inner Heaven and Earth throbbed violently.

It erupted with infinite suction, devouring all of this violent energy.

Inside the Qifeng Pavilion, the Spiritual Qi became turbulent.

The ice-blue cold air and dark-gold divine light intertwined, transforming into visible runes that illuminated the entire pavilion as if it were a divine realm.

...

Meanwhile.

Inside the map of mountains and rivers, within that modified dungeon space.

The light here was eternally dim, and the air was filled with a nauseating stench of blood and decay.

Zi Yun walked barefoot on the viscous ground, heading toward the deepest part of the dungeon step by step, a morbid smile on her face.

In the center of the dungeon, Ye Qingyu lay prone on the ground, completely naked, her body covered in various hideous scars.

These scars were not caused by swords or blades, but rather looked like marks left after being repeatedly flayed by some invisible mental power.

Her limbs were positioned in an extremely distorted manner, her bones having long been crushed inch by inch.

Those eyes, which were once full of resentment and madness, were now hollow and numb.

"My dear sister, how are today's lessons going?"

Zi Yun crouched down and used her finger to hook Ye Qingyu's chin, forcing her to look at her.

An unintelligible "he-he" sound came from Ye Qingyu's throat, and cloudy saliva trickled down the corner of her mouth.

"It seems you're still not obedient enough."

Zi Yun sighed, but the smile on her face grew even more radiant.

A strange red light lit up on her fingertip; it was the "Heart-Eroding Seal" belonging to the Abyssal Demon Blood Consort.

"Since you don't like the Reincarnation Illusionary Realm, let's try a different way to play."

Zi Yun's voice was gentle, but to Ye Qingyu's ears, it was more terrifying than a vicious curse.

A violent flicker finally appeared in those hollow eyes—fear originating from the depths of her Soul.

"No... don't..."

She struggled to squeeze out two words.

"Too late."

Zi Yun's fingertip lightly tapped on Ye Qingyu's brow.

Buzz!

Ye Qingyu's body suddenly stiffened, and then she began to twitch violently, black blood seeping from her seven orifices.

Her senses were infinitely amplified; even the smallest speck of dust on her skin felt like red-hot iron sand being rubbed against her repeatedly.

The slightest movement in the air felt like countless steel blades slicing through her flesh.

Meanwhile, her Divine Soul was dragged into an endless abyss.

There, all her pride, dignity, and memories were torn to shreds by an invisible giant hand, then reassembled.

"Ah—!"

A shrill scream that didn't sound human echoed through the dungeon.

But this scream soon changed its tone.

From pain to numbness, and then to a bizarre, sobbing sound.

Zi Yun quietly appreciated her masterpiece, the smile on her face satisfied and intoxicated.

...

Qifeng Pavilion.

After an unknown amount of time, the violent Spiritual Qi finally calmed down.

Su Yun slowly opened his eyes.

His deep pupils seemed capable of seeing through all things and commanding the Laws with a single thought.

At this moment, he could clearly feel that there was no longer any estrangement between him and this Upper Realm world.

He was a part of this world.

As long as he wished, he could freely mobilize any strand of Law power around him as easily as moving his own limbs.

Combined with the Origin of Heavenly Dao and the burial heaven token within him, he was confident that even if a true Immortal Lord powerhouse descended, he could ensure they would never return!

An unprecedented sense of power and confidence filled Su Yun's heart.

Looking down, Xiao Ruoxue had collapsed in his arms from exhaustion, her face as pale as paper, but her aura had become longer and purer than ever before.

This Origin sacrifice was also a transformative opportunity for her to break through and be rebuilt.

Su Yun casually set up a Restriction to protect her heart meridians, then turned his gaze toward the map of mountains and rivers.

The bait was ready.

It was time to see if that big fish showed any signs of taking the hook.

At that moment, an extremely submissive and scalp-numbing giggle suddenly rang out within his Divine Thought.

"Master... Qing Yu misses Master so much. Please, Master... bestow punishment..."

A cold arc slowly curled on the corner of Su Yun's mouth.
