The dizzy feeling of space being torn apart passed away in a flash.

 The two of them were in the air, and they had returned from the eternal ice field to the place where the ice crystal arch was when they first entered.

 It's just that the arch has long been turned into powder, leaving only a mess of ice chips, proving that it once existed.

  The wind and snow outside are still there, but compared with the eternal silence in the secret realm, it is a little more lively.

  The ambiguous and charming atmosphere in the ice cave was completely interrupted by this sudden teleportation, leaving only an embarrassment that had nowhere to go.

  Ning Liu's mind was still filled with the guardian beast's last angry complaint, and his face turned blue and white.

  He lowered his head and looked at the woman in his arms who was also at a loss.

 She had broken free from his arms, lowered her head, not daring to look at him. The blush at the base of her ears was particularly conspicuous against the pale ice and snow.

 The silence spread between the two of them, more painful than the coldest wind.

 After all, it was Ning Liu who spoke first.

      

   His voice was a little dry, breaking the silence.

 Shui Bing'er's shoulders trembled, but she still didn't raise her head.

  Ning Liu looked at her, and the remaining distracting thoughts and embarrassment in his heart finally turned into a low sigh.

   He is the leader of the Liulitian Sect, and he is also a man. Escape is not his style.

  "I will be responsible for what happened before..."

 Every word he spoke was extremely solemn.

   "You should know that I already have Rongrong and Xiaowu. But I promise you, I will never let you suffer any injustice."

   As soon as these words came out of his mouth, Ning Liu himself felt a little bit stupid.

 Is it enough to just say this?

How many more do you want?

  Qian Renxue has already made an appointment.

  No, if we want to say the earliest one, it was Dugu Yan!

 But the matter has come to this, and all he can give is this promise.

 Shui Bing'er raised her head suddenly, her ice blue eyes gleaming with water, as if she didn't expect him to speak so directly.

She looked at Ning Liu's serious face, and the panic in her heart miraculously calmed down.

  She originally just wanted to find an opportunity to be with him, but she never thought that the gift of fate would be so heavy and so... unexpected.

 The small selfishness caused by the oracle eventually turned into a result that she could not even imagine.

  She suddenly felt as if she was the one who had taken advantage of the situation.

  A blush spread quickly from her cheeks to her snow-white neck. She lowered her head and said "hmm" in a voice as thin as a mosquito's.

 The voice was so soft that it was almost swallowed up by the wind and snow, but Ning Liu could hear it clearly.

 His heart felt relieved, and at the same time, a more complicated pity arose.

In order to break the still somewhat delicate atmosphere, he took the initiative to change the topic.

  "By the way, what is the content of the third test of the God of Black Ice?"

  When it comes to business, Shui Bing'er's expression has returned to its usual coldness.

 She closed her eyes and felt the majestic will of the gods in the sea of ​​spirit. After a moment, she opened her eyes.

  "Third test, "Reshaping the Ice Vein"."

 h "The oracle indicates that at the core of the Far North, there is an ancient ice vein that is on the verge of drying up due to thousands of years of changes in the earth's veins. "

 "I need to use the mysterious power of the black ice in my body to reactivate, shape and bring it back to life."

 Ning Liu frowned when he heard this and quickly analyzed it.

"From absorbing power to using it."

"This third test tests your control and use of divine power, not just fighting."

He mused, "Outsiders can't help with this kind of thing. You are busy, you can only sort it out and guide it bit by bit. It’s a lot of work, so you can’t rush it.”

 Shui Bing’er nodded, her eyes filled with determination as never before.

  After experiencing life and death, and receiving such a huge improvement, her state of mind was no longer that of Wu Xia Amon.

  More importantly, she now has a clearer goal and a figure she wants to catch up with.

  "Don't worry, Sect Master, Bing'er will complete the trial as soon as possible."

 She looked at Ning Liu and made a serious promise.

  "Okay."

  Ning Liu looked at her and saw a transformation in her eyes.

  …

  Subsequently, Shui Bing'er declined Ning Liu's offer to send her back to her residence, and returned to her private practice room alone.

 In a quiet room, a graceful and elegant middle-aged beautiful woman was standing by the window, as if she had been waiting for a long time.

  It is the former dean of Tianshui College.

  "Back."

  The beautiful woman turned around with a gentle smile on her face, but the moment her eyes fell on Shui Bing'er, the smile froze.

 Her eyes suddenly opened wide, her face full of shock.

"Bing'er, you... your soul power!"

She could clearly feel that the fluctuations in Shui Bing'er's soul power were much stronger than when she left. !

  What frightened her even more was the looming sacred aura on Shui Bing'er that transcended the ordinary.

       

  Shui Binger bowed respectfully to the beautiful woman.

"The sect master found the divine inheritance of the God of Black Ice for me. I just passed the second test, and my soul power luckily made a breakthrough."

 Hence she said, she released her martial soul.

 Amidst the clear and clear phoenix cry, a gorgeous ice phoenix with a wingspan of several meters and a body shimmering with blue and silver appeared behind her.

Each feather is flowing with mysterious brilliance, and a pair of phoenix eyes look forward, with the divine majesty of overlooking all living beings.

  Jiu Lin Xuan Bingfeng!

  "Martial spirit... has evolved..."

  The beautiful woman looked at the magical ice phoenix and murmured to herself, the shock in her heart could not be greater.

 The inheritance of the gods!

  She knows the weight of these four words better than anyone else.

 That is the dream that countless soul masters have always kept out of reach throughout their lives! Ning Liu, on the other hand, gave it to Shui Bing'er in such an understatement.

 This young sect leader's handwriting and courage once again refreshed her understanding.

  She took Shui Bing'er's hand excitedly and probed it carefully. The more she probed, the stronger the exclamation on her face became.

“Okay, okay!”

 “Bing’er, our Tianshui Academy, no, our entire lineage of ice elemental soul masters, is finally going to produce a true god!”

 However, after the excitement, the middle-aged beautiful woman’s eyes that had seen countless people saw something strange in Shui Bing’er’s body.

  She suppressed her smile and looked at her proud disciple suspiciously.
