ATG: My genius is almost frightening!

Chapter 150: Ice Phoenix



The block of ice, shaped like a diamond and measuring less than three feet wide and ten feet long, was positioned right at the center of the Heavenly Lake's cold vein.

As Yun Wuji approached, he noticed the figure of a girl inside.

The girl's arms were wrapped tightly around her knees, her head buried between them as she curled into a ball. Completely naked, her long, pale legs and back were fully exposed.

Her long hair cascaded down her body, each strand as white as ice with a faint tint of light blue.

The jade-like hair, which looked like frozen silk, delicately veiled her face and covered her private parts as well.

'So this is the Ice Phoenix. Even though I can't see her face, judging by her figure, her face must be absolutely stunning,' Yun Wuji thought as his gaze lingered on her body. He wasn't the type to pretend otherwise, true to his desires, he had no reason to hypocritically look away.

Suddenly, he recalled the divine spirit from the Blue Pole Star and thought, 'If the Ice Phoenix is this gorgeous, I really wonder how stunning the Golden Crow must be, hehe.'

At this moment, a girl's voice rang in the depths of his soul.

"Who are you?"

"Why are you able to come here?"

Yun Wuji immediately set aside his nasty thoughts and turned his attention to the block of ice, speaking with a serious tone, "Greetings, Ice Phoenix. I am Yun Wuji. I came here because I am immune to Ice."

The girl remained silent, but the waters of the Heavenly Netherfrost Lake trembled slightly. A divine consciousness, as gentle as flowing water, enveloped Yun Wuji completely.

Yun Wuji didn't resist. Not only was this divine consciousness completely kind and welcoming, but it also felt so vast and boundless that he knew he was utterly powerless against it.

In an instant, the immense divine consciousness left Yun Wuji's body, and the girl's voice rang within his soul once more. "You have multiple inheritances in your body, yet you have no bloodline or physique related to ice or water laws. Where did your immunity come from? Strange...strange indeed."

"I don't have any, that's true," Yun Wuji nodded, then shook his head and replied, spreading his arms. "But I was born with a very special body."

The young girl didn't respond, falling into a long silence. After a while, she suddenly asked softly, "Can I look at your memories?"

"Sure," Yun Wuji simply nodded his head. Only by making her see his 'true memories' could he start bullshitting her and making her help him. After all, no matter how much nonsense he spouted from his mouth, it would never be compared to the 'truth' she could see with her own eyes.

Additionally, the infinitely vast divine consciousness that appeared earlier proved that the Ice Phoenix's soul power was far stronger than his, and it would be mere child's play for her to forcefully read his memories against his will.

Even the Dragon God Soul couldn't stop it, after all, one was a living divine being with the support of an entire realm's divine veins, while the other was dead. The Dragon God Soul's strength is entirely dependent on his cultivation.

The water rippled, and the vast divine consciousness enveloped Yun Wuji once more, slowly and gently entering the depths of his soul. Yun Wuji's mind immediately went blank. "Fuck!" As the Ice Phoenix read his memories, she, who was the servant of Li Suo, the Creation Goddess of Light, and always carried herself with dignity, cursed.

"How can someone be conscious from the sperm? That's cheating!"

"Actually, a man with 78 profound entrances exists! He even managed to cultivate the Law of Nothingness! Invictus? What's up with that skill? It's insane, it's cheating, pure cheating!!!"

As the Ice Phoenix continued to read through his memories, her shock grew deeper and deeper. This man was too heaven-defying-no, he didn't need to defy the heavens in the first place. This guy transcended the laws of the world long ago!

This man... this man's genius is... frightening!!!

"The Abyss... Sigh, I had always been worried about the return of the Heaven Smiting Devil Emperor and her clansmen, but now it seems there is another calamity that is many times more dangerous. The Abyss is devouring our world, and one day it will destroy itself and this Primal Chaos as well!"

"Lord Li Suo! She's still alive!!" She suddenly spotted something that filled her with both disbelief and joy.

She was one of the Gods who served under Li Suo. When the war between Devils and Gods broke out, Li Suo was the first Creation God to fall. In fact, she was likely the first God to perish in the war. Her death left countless beings in mourning, and the Ice Phoenix was always weighed down by sadness and guilt over it.

But now, she had discovered something incredible, Lord Li Suo was still alive! She had sealed her soul within the Primordial Seal of Life & Death!

After an unknown amount of time, Yun Wuji slowly regained consciousness. That divine consciousness had completely disappeared.

"Young human... I don't even know what to say. You have so many strange things in you...things I've never seen, not even once in my long life," the girl's voice said, her tone carrying a mix of complicated emotions.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

"I know. Sometimes, even I scare myself," Yun Wuji replied nonchalantly.

"Young human, even though you have unlimited potential, unfortunately, you don't have the time to grow. Still, I hope you'll do your best to save this world, and I will do everything in my power to help you," the Ice Phoenix said with an extremely solemn voice, not minding his

attitude.

What she saw in his memories sent a chill through her body and soul, 'despite being an Ice Phoenix', filling her with dread. She witnessed the hopelessness and bleak future of the Primal Chaos and its inhabitants.

The Abyss had consumed most of the primal energy from the universe, transforming into a completely separate world. Now, the laws of the Abyss were crumbling, and it teetered on the brink of destruction. Once it was destroyed, would the fragile Primal Chaos be able to survive

the aftermath?

Of course, it will not!

This was a crisis that even a Creation God couldn't handle. Even if the Heaven Smiting Devil Emperor returned and decided to help the Primal Chaos, she too would be powerless to stop

it.

Only someone who can control the Law of Nothingness has a slim chance of success. And that person is Yun Wuji.

"Don't worry, Ice Phoenix. I will do my best to save this world. After all, if I fail, my loved ones and I will die as well," Yun Wuji promised, his voice filled with seriousness.

"On behalf of all the living beings in this universe, I thank you," the girl said gently. As she finished speaking, an icy blue light suddenly shot from her toward Yun Wuji.

Yun Wuji didn't dodge and allowed the light to enter his body. The moment it did, he closed his eyes and focused on his inner self.

At the same time, the girl's voice echoed in his ears, "I can't give you all my power right now, as it would cause me to cease to exist. However, I can still give you a part of my soul."

Swoosh!

He didn't reply. Instead, he focused on refining the divine soul. His profound energy began to surge rapidly, and at the same time, the cold energy in the Heavenly Netherfrost Lake started to swirl around him, forming a massive vortex that revolved fiercely.

Boom!

A few minutes later, with a thunderous noise, Yun Wuji broke through to the 5th level of the Divine Origin Realm. However, his cultivation didn't stop there, it continued to rise until it reached the peak of the 5th-level Divine Origin Realm.

Normally, refining a divine soul would take a very long time-months, or even years. Even Yun Che would need several days to refine it completely.

"At this rate, I'll be able to break through to the 6th level tonight, once I get the Profound Jades and Cores," Yun Wuji said, slowly opening his eyes as he inspected his body.

He turned to the Ice Phoenix and said gratefully, "Thank you."

"I'm only doing this for my own selfish reasons. You don't need to thank me. I'm sorry I can't give you my power right now. I want to see Lord Li Suo one last time. Once I do, I'll give you everything I have," the Ice Phoenix said apologetically.

She was pathetically clinging to life, relying on the Divine Vein. The only thing preventing her from ending her miserable existence was her desire to witness the return of the Heaven Smiting Devil Emperor and see the fate of the Primal Chaos with her own eyes. However, after meeting Yun Wuji, her purpose changed. Now, she longed to see her Lord one last time. Yun Wuji didn't respond. Instead, he reached out and placed his hand on the surface of the

block of ice. A dazzling light erupted from his palm, spreading across the ice. The light grew brighter and brighter, intensifying until it enveloped the entire area around them in an

intense white glow.

After more than an hour, Yun Wuji pulled his hand back, his body trembling faintly. If not for being inside the lake, he would have been drenched in sweat.

He closed his eyes and drew energy from the lake to restore his strength. A few minutes later, when he opened them, he heard the Ice Phoenix's voice, "You didn't have to do that."

"I don't know how much time you lost by giving me that fragment of your soul, but I hope

this helps you recover some of it," Yun Wuji said with a small smile before shaking his head. "You're a very good person, and I truly hope you can stay around for as long as possible. Who knows? Maybe in the future, when Li Suo returns, she can help you recover. Then, you and your master can finally reunite."

He added with a chuckle, "You don't want your master to be alone in this new world, right?" "...Thank you," the Ice Phoenix said softly after a long silence.
