Chapter 97

Thus, Ye Wei smoothly perfected the Xuantian Star Transformation Divine Art to its second level.

At this point, the divine patterns within the humanoid shadow were no longer one hundred and thirty-six, but three hundred and sixty-five! The additional divine patterns were all added by Ye Wei himself during the process of perfecting this divine art!

However, among the additional divine patterns, there were no new ones; they were still the one hundred and thirty-six divine patterns that made up the first level of the Xuantian Star Transformation Divine Art. All the divine patterns had been reused several times by Ye Wei.

While perfecting this divine art, Ye Wei also gained many insights. If he wanted to further perfect it, the difficulty would be extremely high, unless he could create new divine patterns!

Creating divine patterns was a domain that only a Divine Pattern Master could touch. It was far beyond the reach of the current Ye Wei, and even Master Yi, who had one foot in the realm of Divine Pattern Master, could not do it!

"Three hundred and sixty-five divine patterns, this is the second level of the Xuantian Star Transformation Divine Art!" Puyuan widened his eyes and stared straight at Ye Wei, his gaze filled with shock.

The Ice Emperor once spent three days comprehending one hundred and eight divine patterns, and under various fortuitous circumstances, mastered the first level of the Xuantian Star Transformation Divine Art. It took him a full three years to perfect it to the second level.

But Ye Wei only took three days, just three days, to complete this process!

The Ice Emperor was already considered a genius among geniuses, so what about this young man in front of him?

Puyuan could not find the words to describe his feelings at this moment.

Just then, there was a "boom."

A thick white light column descended from the sky, landing on Ye Wei.

A surging power flowed into his body, rushing towards his dantian, instantly spreading throughout his entire body. All the pores on Ye Wei's body opened up, joyfully accepting this power. Vaguely, Ye Wei sensed the source of this power, which exuded a solemn and sacred aura.

Looking towards the end of the white light, he could vaguely see something.

Was that the source of the Heavenly Dao Power?

Under the cleansing of the Heavenly Dao Power, Ye Wei's skin became crystal clear, and all impurities were expelled from his body, vanishing into thin air. His muscles, after absorbing the Heavenly Dao Power, became even stronger and more resilient. His skin, after absorbing it, became more lustrous and smooth like jade. His bones, after absorbing it, became even more solid...

He felt his soul elevate, becoming exceptionally clear.

It was said that after being cleansed by the Heavenly Dao Power, one would have a significant advantage in resisting heart demons.

The more thorough the cleansing by the Heavenly Dao Power, the weaker the heart demons would be.

This was a once-in-a-thousand-years opportunity!

Ye Wei quickly guided the Heavenly Dao Power into his dantian, continuously refining and absorbing it. The strands of Heavenly Dao Power transformed into surging power, the purity of which far surpassed ordinary essence energy.

There were very few people who could perfect a divine art and receive the cleansing of the Heavenly Dao Power while still at the Apprentice Realm.

For someone still at the Apprentice Realm, the effect of a single cleansing by the Heavenly Dao Power was far stronger than consuming a hundred Silver Moon Pills!

The surging power surged forward, impacting the barrier to the next realm.

Boom!

Ye Wei's cultivation continuously rose, breaking through again, reaching the Eighth Rank Apprentice Realm.

But this did not stop. As the Heavenly Dao Power continued to be refined by Ye Wei, his cultivation continued to increase.

Boom!

Ninth Rank Apprentice Realm!

After Ye Wei broke through to the Ninth Rank Apprentice Realm, the Heavenly Dao Power descending from the void did not stop. It continued to pour down, landing on Ye Wei, surging like a flood, unimaginably abundant. Even Lin Ziyuan, Xue Yao, Hong Xun, and others beside Ye Wei benefited, absorbing a considerable amount of Heavenly Dao Power.

Lin Ziyuan was secretly amazed. The Heavenly Dao Power Ye Wei received this time after perfecting the Xuantian Star Transformation Divine Art was several times more than when he perfected the Threefold Tide Palm!

"Why did the Heavenly Dao Power fall again after Xiao Wei perfected the Xuantian Star Transformation Divine Art, which was already perfected by predecessors?" Lin Ziyuan's mind flashed with a doubt, suddenly thinking of something, her eyes brightened, "That's right, it should be like this..."

At this moment, Ye Wei was like a giant whale, continuously devouring the Heavenly Dao Power, absorbing and refining it, filling his body.

Ye Wei's entire meridians were filled with Heavenly Dao Power, which continuously compressed, gradually expanding the meridians.

Boom!

The Ninth Rank Apprentice Realm could not contain so much Heavenly Dao Power, and Ye Wei broke through another level, reaching the Tenth Rank Apprentice Realm!

His cultivation continued to rise, reaching the bottleneck to the Warrior Realm, before slowly stopping.

The Heavenly Dao Power almost broke through the bottleneck to the Warrior Realm, but Ye Wei's foundation was still too weak, and he wasted too much Heavenly Dao Power, unable to break through this boundary.

The Heavenly Dao Power gradually calmed down, the light column slowly thinned, and finally disappeared.

Ye Wei sat cross-legged, feeling the changes in his body, his heart filled with awe. The Heavenly Dao Power was absolutely a force several levels higher than essence energy. After absorbing the Heavenly Dao Power, his cultivation had wildly risen from the Seventh Rank Apprentice Realm to the Tenth Rank Apprentice Realm, even reaching the edge of the Warrior Realm, without any side effects from advancing too quickly.

Thinking about the vague shadows he sensed at the end of the Heavenly Dao Power, Ye Wei was filled with doubt. How was the Heavenly Dao Power formed? Why was it so powerful?

However, these were not things Ye Wei could know at his current level. He patiently consolidated his cultivation, to prevent the Heavenly Dao Power from dissipating too much. After all, experiencing the cleansing of the Heavenly Dao Power was extremely rare.

If he could experience the cleansing of the Heavenly Dao Power again, he might be able to break through to the Warrior Realm. Ye Wei clenched his fists slightly, realizing that he was not incapable of cultivating divine arts. Thinking about this, Ye Wei became excited. As long as he became a Divine Pattern Master, his cultivation progress would definitely be much faster than ordinary people.

However, to perfect a divine art, one must first master it, just like this time when he perfected the Xuantian Star Transformation Divine Art!

Seeing Ye Wei perfect the Xuantian Star Transformation Divine Art and receive the cleansing of the Heavenly Dao Power, Puyuan laughed and said, "The Xuantian Star Transformation Divine Art is different from ordinary divine arts. It is an upgradable divine art with strong malleability. Different people will perfect different versions of it. So, every time it is perfected, there will be a cleansing by the Heavenly Dao Power. I wonder which version of the Xuantian Star Transformation, the one perfected by Ye Wei or the one perfected by the Ice Emperor, is stronger?"

"I, Puyuan, have waited for over three hundred years, and finally, I have found someone worthy of inheriting the Ice Emperor's legacy!" Puyuan looked at Ye Wei, his eyes burning with enthusiasm. Ye Wei was definitely a once-in-a-thousand-years genius, and he would surely carry on the Ice Emperor's legacy!

"However..." Puyuan slowly exhaled, his emotions returning to calm. Thinking about the Ice Emperor's instructions, he frowned slightly.

"The Ice Emperor once said that anyone who could comprehend eighty-one divine patterns within three days would pass the first test!" Puyuan looked at Ye Wei, Lin Ziyuan, and Jin Yan, frowning slightly, feeling somewhat conflicted. He wanted Ye Wei to directly inherit the Ice Emperor's legacy, but this did not align with the Ice Emperor's will.

The Ice Emperor's will was that if only one person comprehended more than eighty-one divine patterns within three days, that person could inherit his legacy. If more than one person comprehended eighty-one divine patterns within three days, a second test would be required.

Now, Ye Wei, Lin Ziyuan, and Jin Yan had all comprehended more than eighty-one divine patterns within three days, so they should undergo the second test. But was there a need for a second test given Ye Wei's outstanding performance?

In Puyuan's heart, Ye Wei was the most suitable person to inherit the Ice Emperor's legacy. Jin Yan and Lin Ziyuan were not comparable to Ye Wei at all!

"But the master's will cannot be disobeyed!"

"The test is over, all three of you have passed the test!" Puyuan waved his hand, and three blue-green light columns descended, enveloping Ye Wei, Lin Ziyuan, and Jin Yan.

"Only the three of them?" Hong Xun, Xue Yao, and others looked at Ye Wei, Lin Ziyuan, and Jin Yan, who were bathed in the blue-green light, their expressions slightly dim. They understood that the gap between them and Ye Wei and the others was too great.

Who wouldn't want to inherit the legacy of the Ice Emperor? This kind of opportunity might never come again in a lifetime. Not passing the test left everyone feeling somewhat dejected.

"Congratulations!" After a brief moment of contemplation, Hong Xun, Xue Yao, and others slowly walked to Lin Ziyuan and Ye Wei, bowing to Ye Wei. Although they did not inherit the Ice Emperor's legacy, they were genuinely happy for Ye Wei.

"Thank you!" Ye Wei bowed and smiled.

At this moment, one by one, people suddenly disappeared, presumably being moved out of the Ice Emperor Hall by Puyuan.

There were still over thirty warriors left in the hall. Xue Yao, Hong Xun, and others looked at each other, somewhat puzzled. They thought they would also be moved out of the Ice Emperor Hall, but Puyuan had left them behind.

"Little ones!" Puyuan's slightly hoarse, deep voice echoed in everyone's ears.

"Hmm?"

Hearing this, everyone raised their heads and looked at Puyuan.

"Although you did not pass the test, your talents are still quite good. Since you have the fortune to enter the Ice Emperor Hall, I will bestow another opportunity upon you!" Puyuan smiled and said, "The servants who followed the Ice Emperor were not just me. The Ice Emperor had a total of eight attendants, all of whom were powerful figures. Besides me, the other seven attendants also left their legacies!"

"Although you have no hope of inheriting the Ice Emperor's legacy, you can try to inherit the legacies left by those seven powerful figures!" Puyuan waved his hand, and seven jade pendants appeared in the air, floating above everyone's heads.

"The jade pendants contain small spatial teleportation arrays. Once you refine a jade pendant, you will be teleported to the place where the legacy of one of the Ice Emperor's seven attendants is left!" Puyuan pointed to the seven floating jade pendants and slowly said.

"The legacies left by the Ice Emperor's seven attendants!" The dejected crowd looked at the seven floating jade pendants, their eyes once again burning with enthusiasm.

Not inheriting the Ice Emperor's legacy, but inheriting the legacies of the Ice Emperor's seven attendants, was still a great opportunity. To be an attendant of the Ice Emperor, one must have extraordinary strength!
