Chapter 2982: Ice and Fire Dao Stones, Refining the Soul

Universal Career Change: Necromancer! I Am the Calamity by Slow Pig

Chixin left behind a hundred ice and fire dao stones.

Lin Moyu carefully examined the method for collecting the ice and fire dao stones, then began to simulate it in his mind.

This method was a rune. For Lin Moyu, no matter how complex the rune was, he only needed to adapt for a while before he could use it effortlessly.

After just ten minutes or so, Lin Moyu had mastered this rune.

He raised his hand to draw, and a rune quickly formed.

The rune was very complex, a three-dimensional rune. This rune had no specific grade, but for some rune masters, its complexity would definitely exceed the eighth grade.

For Lin Moyu, even eighth-grade runes didn't seem to pose much difficulty.

Once a rune was drawn, it flew onto one of the ice and fire dao stones.

That dao stone made a soft sound, and the ice and fire power on it immediately extinguished.

The rune's function was to seal the ice and fire dao stone, allowing it to be stored in storage treasures or rule worlds.

Otherwise, the ice and fire dao stones were too powerful. Storage treasures couldn't withstand them, and neither could rule worlds.

Ice and fire dao stones were Dao Realm treasures, while Dao Venerable storage treasures and rule worlds were far from the Dao Realm level. Naturally, they couldn't contain them without sealing first.

Lin Moyu successfully sealed one ice and fire dao stone and stored it away. The entire process went very smoothly.

Then he sealed nine more ice and fire dao stones in succession, equally smoothly.

"If storage treasures and rule worlds can't withstand the power of ice and fire dao stones, what about my storage space?"

While sealing the ice and fire dao stones, a thought occurred to Lin Moyu.

His storage space was extremely special, completely different from storage treasures and rule worlds.

So far, there seemed to be nothing his storage space couldn't contain.

As for whether it would work for ice and fire dao stones, Lin Moyu wasn't sure.

After some thought, Lin Moyu decided to try.

He carefully stored an unsealed ice and fire dao stone.

Watching the dao stone disappear and appear in his storage space, the entire process was equally smooth, without any issues.

The storage space could indeed contain ice and fire dao stones, which was convenient.

Lin Moyu didn't bother sealing them anymore. He directly waved his hand, collecting the remaining dao stones and throwing them into his storage space, leaving only one outside.

Looking at the ice and fire dao stone, he could clearly sense the powerful force contained within it.

This was power belonging to the Dao Realm, surpassing all Dao Venerables.

If a Dao Venerable touched it, they would be crushed to dust by the power within the dao stone.

Only with some special methods or special treasures could one utilize the power within the ice and fire dao stones.

While telling Lin Moyu how to seal the ice and fire dao stones, Chixin also told him their true purpose.

"The original purpose of ice and fire dao stones is to refine the soul, using ice and fire dao power to refine the soul, making it stronger and purer between ice and fire."

"But using ice and fire dao stones to refine the soul has one drawback: the soul will be tainted with the aura of the ice and fire dao."

"If the cultivator isn't cultivating the ice and fire dao, they'll need to find other ways to dispel these auras."

"That's why Brother Lanshan said it's both medicine and poison. Ice and fire dao stones are soul supplements, but they also leave some negative effects."

"Actually, those truly suitable for ice and fire dao stones are people cultivating the Ice Dao or Fire Dao."

Lin Moyu believed the Three Ancestors definitely knew the purpose of ice and fire dao stones and surely had methods to dispel the dao aura left behind.

Or perhaps the Three Ancestors themselves cultivated the Ice Dao or Fire Dao.

As for the leader of the Hundred Herbs Alliance, Lin Moyu wasn't clear on his intentions for the ice and fire dao stones.

"If I use ice and fire dao stones to refine my soul, then use spirit flowers to restore it to its original state, I wonder if that would work."

Lin Moyu pondered. The effect of ice and fire dao stones in refining the soul was very good, extremely attractive to him.

Moreover, he felt that the dao aura left in the soul by the ice and fire dao stones was actually a kind of damage to the soul.

If it was damage, spirit flowers could heal it.

And he didn't necessarily need to use spirit flowers; he still had the Ten-Colored Dragon Soul Crystal.

The Ten-Colored Dragon Soul Crystal could also purify the soul, perhaps dispelling the dao aura.

If that didn't work, he still had rebirth.

At worst, he could self-detonate once, letting his soul complete a rebirth, which could also dispel the dao aura.

Lin Moyu immediately thought of three methods.

Since that was the case, why not try!

The timid starve to death, the bold die of overeating.

Lin Moyu belonged to the latter. He'd rather die of overeating than starve to death.

Following the method Chixin left behind, he established a channel between his soul and the outside world.

Soul power spread through the channel, coming into contact with the ice and fire dao stone.

The dao stone was activated, and two streams of dao power, one ice and one fire, simultaneously spread from the dao stone, following the channel Lin Moyu established into his soul world.

Because Lin Moyu actively established the soul channel, the ice and fire dao power directly fell onto his soul body.

In an instant, the soul body was enveloped by ice and fire dao power.

Half was covered in ice, half engulfed in flames.

Lin Moyu grunted, experiencing the "wonderful" feeling of ice and fire purgatory.

Waves of intense pain came from his soul. Whether frozen or burned, it all turned into unimaginable agony.

Lin Moyu's whole body trembled, sweat soaking him in the blink of an eye.

His soul felt like it was under endless attacks. If Lin Moyu's dao heart wasn't firm enough, he would have chosen to give up immediately.

Chixin had said that when using ice and fire dao stones to refine the soul, there would be some discomfort.

This wasn't just discomfort; it was ice and fire hell.

But this was only the beginning. The real refinement hadn't yet come.

The power of the ice and fire dao, using Lin Moyu's soul as a battlefield, finally collided.

Boom!

Powerful force exploded. Lin Moyu felt as if his soul was about to be torn apart.

Terrifying power exploded within his soul body, leaving him dazed and confused.

In the explosion, some minute impurities in his soul were refined away, making his soul increasingly pure.

The power of his soul was rising, his realm gradually increasing.

Previously, Lin Moyu's soul realm had reached the third level of Dao Venerable. Now, under the refinement of the ice and fire dao, it was advancing towards the fourth level.

Although the process was painful, at least the result was good, with some gains.

Lin Moyu stabilized his dao heart, enduring the pain, continuously refining his soul.

There was a threshold between the third and fourth levels of Dao Venerable, quite a large gap, both for cultivation realm and soul realm.

This was also why Lin Moyu's soul hadn't progressed after entering the third level of Dao Venerable.

Originally, Lin Moyu thought he would have to wait until his realm reached the third level of Dao Venerable before his soul could advance along with his cultivation.

Now it seemed unnecessary. The appearance of ice and fire dao stones could allow his soul to enter the fourth level of Dao Venerable in advance.

Once his soul entered the fourth level of Dao Venerable, it would also pave the way for him to enter the fourth level of Dao Venerable in cultivation. As long as he had enough dao patterns, he could enter the fourth level of Dao Venerable at any time.

Under the refinement of the ice and fire dao stone, accompanied by a soft sound, his soul burst with purple light, actually suppressing the ice and fire.

His soul finally stepped into the fourth level of Dao Venerable!
