Chapter 215: Vast

The Ice and Fire Nine Heavens was originally a seductive spell, but after a breakthrough, it reached the second level. Gao Xian added points until he reached the level of Grandmaster, allowing the Ice and Fire Nine Heavens to closely integrate with the Ice Arrow Technique and Flame Blast, forming a whole.

The crystal nucleus contributed by the Four-Armed Demon Monkey possessed an exceptionally strong and clever Ice and Fire power, which was skillfully integrated together.

Gao Xian was deeply impressed by the intertwining of the Ice and Fire Qi of the Demon Monkey. At that time, he felt that the Demon Monkey's crystal nucleus was suitable for the Ice and Fire Nine Heavens.

At this moment, through the collision of divine consciousness and the black and red crystal nucleus, the pure Ice and Fire power within the crystal nucleus was naturally stimulated.

The residual divine soul of the Four-Armed Demon Monkey hidden in the crystal nucleus also erupted along with the pure Ice and Fire power.

The divine soul of the Four-Armed Demon Monkey intertwined under the influence of the black and red mana, forming a huge ape figure, waving its four arms and roaring at Gao Xian in the realm of divine consciousness.

Suddenly, the residual divine soul of the Four-Armed Demon Monkey emerged, carrying its innate arrogance and ferocity, and directly rushed into Gao Xian's sea of consciousness through the connection of divine consciousness.

If it were any other Foundation Building cultivator, their divine consciousness power would be far inferior to that of the Four-Armed Demon Monkey. This sudden attack could very likely cause severe injuries or even death by shattering their divine soul.

However, Gao Xian didn't mind at all. He wasn't afraid of the opponent even when they were alive, so what threat could this remaining strand of soul pose to him, especially when it was empowered by the crystal nucleus?

Gao Xian condensed a Sun Spear and thrust it towards the roaring demon monkey.

The Sun Spear, wrapped in a crimson spiritual light, pierced through the residual soul of the Four-Armed Demon Monkey, leaving a transparent hole in its chest, with a faint red flame burning around the wound.

The pierced Four-Armed Demon Monkey was like a burning paper painting, burning, rolling, and turning into ashes in the crimson flame.

When the residual soul of the Four-Armed Demon Monkey dissipated, it left behind a pure divine consciousness.

Gao Xian accepted this divine consciousness. In a trance, Gao Xian seemed to have turned into a small monkey, freely leaping and swinging among the trees.

After an unknown period of time, the power inherited in the monkey's bloodline naturally awakened, and from then on, it possessed the ability to control both the opposing forces of ice and fire.

As the monkey grew older, its power became stronger. Until one day, it encountered a disgusting human!

Gao Xian saw himself in the memory of the Four-Armed Demon Monkey. The eyes of the Four-Armed Demon Monkey seemed different from those of humans, and its appearance was quite ferocious.

It was the first time Gao Xian saw himself from the perspective of another life form. He watched himself effortlessly control the Qiankun Wheel, moving freely like lightning. Although his appearance was not very pleasing, it was quite cool.

Then, the memory of the monkey abruptly ended with a faint sword light.

Seeing himself in the monkey's memory, Gao Xian found it very interesting. Of course, more importantly, were the memories of the monkey's control over power.

The monkey's Ice Qi was deep and cold, almost invisible and colorless, or it appeared as a dark black. Its Ice Qi was called Profound Ice Qi.

The Fire Qi it controlled was blazing like the sun, called Fiery Sun Qi.

The fusion of Ice and Fire Qi was called Cold Sun Qi.

Having understood the fundamental ice and fire dual-system mana controlled by the monkey, Gao Xian easily established resonance with the black and red crystal core in his hand.

The black and red crystal core transformed into two clusters of differently colored flames, slowly merging into Gao Xian's hand. The Ice and Fire Nine Heavens Secret Technique spontaneously activated, guiding the merging of the two clusters of different lights.

When Gao Xian opened his eyes again, the crystal core in his hand had completely disappeared. With his thoughts in motion, a cold light moved between his fingers like a fish swimming.

In his other hand, a cluster of bright red flames rapidly expanded tenfold and hundredfold like a balloon, then instantly contracted into a small fiery red bullet.

One fiery red bullet after another emerged, finally forming a tower tip made up of thirty-six fiery red bullets.

The fiery red bullets integrated one by one, ultimately transforming into an extremely crimson bullet.

Cold lights moved between Gao Xian's left hand, and the thirty-six cold lights finally assembled together, forming a three-foot-long ice spear.

Under his spiritual consciousness control, the flames and ice arrows of the integrated union became invisible.

This process was smooth and natural, as if everything should have been this way.

Gao Xian knew that he had integrated the four-armed monkey crystal core, pushing the Ice and Fire Nine Heavens to a higher level, making everything different.

He opened the Wind Moon Treasure Mirror, and the Ice and Fire Nine Heavens had already become the Ice and Fire Thirty-Six Heavens.

So, if it could still be upgraded, would it become the Ice and Fire Seventy-Two Heavens, or even the One Hundred and Eight Heavens?

The Ice and Fire Thirty-Six Heavens, the name sounded plain, but it was a true portrayal of the changes in this spell.

Originally, with the Ice and Fire Nine Heavens, Gao Xian could only activate nine spells of the ice and fire dual-system, or activate eighteen spells separately.

After upgrading to the Ice and Fire Thirty-Six Heavens, he could activate thirty-six spells of the ice and fire dual-system, or activate seventy-two spells separately.

Quantitative changes lead to qualitative changes!

Adding one or two spells would not substantially increase the power of the spells.

Nine spells multiplied by four became thirty-six spells, fundamentally changing the level of the spells.

Moreover, under the enhancement of the crystal core, the Ice Arrow Technique and the Flame Bullet Technique also upgraded.

The Ice Arrow Technique upgraded to the Profound Ice Arrow, and the Flame Bullet Technique upgraded to the Blazing Sun Bullet.

A difference of one word allowed these two low-level spells to break through their own limits and reach a higher level.

Ice and Fire Thirty-Six Heavens: Ice and fire originate from the same source, yin and yang reverse, infinite transformations. (18888/80000 proficiency)

Blazing Sun Bullet: Fierce fire like the sun, melting gold and burning mountains. (999/10000 entry-level)

Profound Ice Arrow: Profound and dark like the night, chilling like ice. (999/10000 entry-level)

Gao Xian looked at the detailed data and was filled with gratitude towards the Four-Armed Demon Monkey. This monkey brother had shown loyalty and helped him overcome the bottleneck of three magic spells in one go.

Among them, the Thirty-Six Layers of Ice and Fire had even surpassed the introductory level and directly reached the proficient level.

According to the requirements for upgrading the Thirty-Six Layers of Ice and Fire, which is the Human Dao Spiritual Light, it is on the same level as the Thunder and Lightning Magic.

However, the Thunder and Lightning Magic is his innate secret technique, so the requirement for the Human Dao Spiritual Light is at least halved.

Based on this, the Thunder and Lightning Magic is one level higher than the Thirty-Six Layers of Ice and Fire.

In this way, the high level of the Thirty-Six Layers of Ice and Fire surpasses other peripheral secret techniques by a large margin.

Compared to the mighty Vajra Staff, it falls short by quite a bit.

Gao Xian was very satisfied with the Thirty-Six Layers of Ice and Fire. With this powerful spell, the Ice Arrow Technique could be upgraded to the Profound Ice Arrow, and the Flame Bullet Technique could be upgraded to the Blazing Sun Bullet. This allowed the two low-level spells to undergo a complete transformation, posing a huge threat to second-stage cultivators.

When encountering Foundation Building late-stage cultivators like Wang Chuan and Wang Yuanfeng again, Gao Xian estimated that he would only need to throw two rounds of Blazing Sun Bullets to directly blast them to death.

However, with his current mana, he could only cast the Thirty-Six Layers of Ice and Fire twice in a row.

The Thirty-Six Layers of Ice and Fire was exquisite, but the mana consumption of the upgraded Blazing Sun Bullet and Profound Ice Arrow had increased several times.

As the power of the spells increased, the mana consumption naturally increased. This was also the most basic rule of spells.

Gao Xian entered the Heart and Mind Temple for testing. Now, he could integrate the power of thirty-six Blazing Sun Bullets together or integrate thirty-six Profound Ice Arrows into a Profound Ice Spear, which was extremely terrifying in power.

According to his estimation, it posed a great threat to third-stage Gold Core cultivators.

However, it was extremely difficult for spells like this to hit Gold Core cultivators. Even demonic beasts like the Four-Armed Demon Monkey could sense the abnormality of the spells in advance and dodge them.

When the proficiency of several spells increased, perhaps the speed of spell casting could be further accelerated, making it difficult for Gold Core cultivators to dodge.

In any case, with the Thirty-Six Layers of Ice and Fire, with the Profound Ice Arrow and Blazing Sun Bullet, dealing with second-stage enemies would no longer be troublesome.

Gao Xian originally didn't pay much attention to second-stage cultivators until Li Feihuang appeared, making him realize that there were indeed some geniuses in the world who were naturally suited for cultivation.

Li Feihuang's abilities were average, but she had great potential. It's just that it hasn't been fully tapped into.

Similarly, Yun Qiushui, who was clearly at the Foundation Building stage, always gave Gao Xian the feeling that he was deeper and more unfathomable than several Gold Core cultivators like Yun Taihao.

The Qingyun Competition was a public battle, and the most taboo thing was to let others see through one's own path.

With the Blazing Sun Bullet and Profound Ice Arrow, even if he encountered a few geniuses like Li Feihuang, it would be unlikely for him to capsize.

Coupled with his swordsmanship and the Qiankun Wheel, there was no need to reveal the Lingxi Sword. He should be able to sweep through the heroes and take the lead!

Gao Xian shared the good news of his promotion to the second level of Foundation Building with Qi Niang, but he didn't mention absorbing the third-order crystal core, let alone the Ice and Fire Thirty-Six Heavens.

It's not that he doesn't trust Qi Niang, nor is it because Qi Niang wants to stay in Lianyun Sect and create discord between them.

When it comes to the secret technique of the Wind Moon Treasure Mirror, he won't talk about it with anyone. This is his principle.

Qi Niang was very happy about his promotion and even prepared some fancy celebrations for him that evening.

Gao Xian was deeply moved by this. Qi Niang, who is usually reserved, was able to do this, which was a significant sacrifice on her part.

He also understood that this was Qi Niang's way of compensating him.

In fact, for the two of them, Qi Niang staying in Lianyun Sect was indeed the best solution.

Qingyun City is a place where there are said to be dozens of Gold Core cultivators. With such a large sect, it can be imagined that there are various factions and intertwined forces.

He is familiar with Yun Qiushui, but not familiar enough to do business selling pills under Yun Qiushui's name.

In any sect or faction, the pill business is inevitably controlled by various parties.

It's okay for high-end pills to flow out, but the market for low-level pills is definitely closed.

Unfortunately, Lu Jiao San and Tian Gui Dan need to be sold in large quantities, which is a very taboo thing to do.

Gao Xian is confident in establishing himself in Qingyun Sect, but it will take time. It may take three to five years, or even ten to eight years.

During this time, Qi Niang can help him sell pills in Lianyun Sect, not only gaining Human Dao Spiritual Light but also making money.

He didn't proactively tell Qi Niang about this matter because he didn't want to be so selfish and keep Qi Niang behind for his own sake.

Qi Niang taking the initiative to stay actually solved this biggest problem. Of course, this also involves Qi Niang's own considerations.

March passed without incident, April passed without incident, May passed without incident, June passed without incident.

In the scorching heat of July, Gao Xian took the initiative to visit the Sect Master Yun Taihao and bid farewell in person.

Yun Taihao kept his promise and readily agreed to let Gao Xian go. He also gave some encouraging words, urging Gao Xian to strive for first place.

The support of this Sect Master for Gao Xian was clearly limited to words. But he introduced Gao Xian to a friend, Tang Huairen from Wanbao Tower, and told Gao Xian that he could seek help from this person and gave him a token.

Leaving the main hall, Gao Xian also breathed a sigh of relief. Although Yun Taihao was stingy, at least he kept his promise and didn't play any tricks, which was enough.

Gao Xian looked up to the west, where the sun was shining brightly in the sky. The golden light on Jin Xia Peak extended forward along the field of vision, connecting with the distant blue sky.

With the blue sky above and the mountains below, the space between heaven and earth is incredibly vast...
