This time, after comprehending the Great Ice Seal Technique, Chu Yuan also received the title of Ice-Sealed Emperor.
The name Ice-Sealed Emperor sounded incredibly powerful.
"Ice-Sealed Emperor..." Chu Yuan murmured to himself, "How many spiritual fruits do I need to upgrade to Ice-Sealed Emperor?"
"Four Spiritual Fruits." answered the system.
"So it requires four Spiritual Fruits, meaning that Ice-Sealed Emperor is a third-level title."
Chu Yuan nodded.
He wasn't surprised. Ingesting spiritual fruits also meant extracting energy directly from the source river to gain insight.
This time, because of this unique opportunity, he achieved this milestone without the use of Spiritual Fruits.
The moment he moved, his commanding presence could freeze heaven and earth.
An endless frost descended.
At this moment, Luo Yueying gently launched an ice-sealing attack, and the void seemed to turn into shards of glass, demonstrating the mysteries of ice sealing.
"Oh? You've also figured out the Great Ice Seal Technique."
It was not surprising that Luo Yueying, a prodigious talent and a demi-god, had understood the Great Ice Seal Technique.
Although her technique was not as powerful as Chu Yuan's, it revealed a different kind of subtlety.
The same Three Thousand Paths, in the hands of different people, resulted in differing aura and subtleties.
"This Great Ice Seal Technique is indeed extraordinary."
Luo Yueying spoke, "The mysteries aren't obvious when we're in the frozen world, but elsewhere, with my current mana, with a single move, within a hundred miles, everything would turn into an icy plain. Each of the Three Thousand Paths contains the mysteries of heaven and earth and it would already be a great fortune for an ordinary person to comprehend one."
"Indeed, the Three Thousand Paths are very extraordinary," said Chu Yuan with a smile.
"It's a coincidence that the Martial Emperor wanted to visit the North Abyss to prepare food for the Emptiness Carp, otherwise I wouldn't be here," said Luo Yueying.
Chu Yuan didn't reply but looked up at the sky instead.
It seemed as if two different worlds overlapped, creating a fascinating spectacle.
He saw the stars, which usually looked like mere points of light, now magnified, as if he could grasp the sun, moon, and stars with his hand.
This place is very close to the cosmos beyond the eternal world.
The pure colors in the sky transformed it into a mirror, perfectly reflecting the universe beyond the eternal world.
If he broke the mirror in front of him, he could even leave the eternal world and enter the boundless cosmic vacuum.
Of course, doing so would be extremely dangerous.
Crash!
The severe pressure shattered the void and countless crystals fell from the hardened Crystal Layer.
The falling crystals each held the power of a Void God!
The Kun of Nothingness was filled with joy as it devoured these crystals. These were the condensed power of space, far more potent than the ores it consumed before.
Yet, Chu Yuan's gaze penetrated the infinite spacetime and all he saw was that the Crystal Layer was not pristine. It seemed that unmoving human figures existed within it.
But they were all dead, having seemingly been trapped for eternity.
"Generation after generation, so many have tried to explore the universe beyond the world. More often than not, they ended up trapped and perished within the Crystal Layer. Even True Gods sometimes fall, and every year countless celestial bodies get pulled in by the layer's gravitational pull."
Luo Yueying said, "So while the Crystal Layer is dangerous, it is also a treasure trove."
Chu Yuan nodded in agreement.
The meteorite that had fallen before had at least 90% of its volume burn and disintegrate within the Crystal Layer, leaving a large amount of divine artifacts within the layer.
Even some ancient True Gods, before their reincarnation, had left their fortunes within the ancient heavens and earth.
Boom Boom!
At that moment, the River of Frost Origin inside began to flow rapidly again, as if trying to quickly leave the Eternal World. The compressed and overlapped space swiftly expanded, restoring its original state.
Chu Yuan knew that this tributary of the River of Frost Origin had already flowed through the Eternal World.
"The extreme night of the Northern Domain is about to end."
When the River of Frost Origin flowed away, Chu Yuan clearly noted the changes.
"We should leave this void. Once it's restored to its original state, we won't know which spacetime we'll end up in. We might even be banished and lost forever, unable to find our way back."
Chu Yuan summoned the Kun of Nothingness.
The more crucial the time was, the more dangerous it became. Many Void Gods missed the best time to leave and were trapped here forever.
Forcing the exit would cause a chain collapse of the void.
But Chu Yuan had the Kun of Nothingness, a favorite of the space, it did not crash into the void with force but melded and teleported out.
Rumble!
After Chu Yuan's departure, layers of void shattered one after another. The grandeur of the Origin River's power was awe-inspiring; a single flow could bring about a phenomenon as wonderful and absurd as the extreme night of the Northern Domain.
This ignited an arsenal of thoughts within Chu Yuan.
"Heaven and earth are layered. The Chaotic Layer and the Crystal Layer of the Eternal World are fascinating!"
At this point, Chu Yuan had returned to the North Profound Domain.
