Gao Wu insists on cultivating immortality.

Chapter 313 Beyond Life and Death
Gao Wu, who was refining the Crimson Sky Sword, spent nearly two seconds trying to understand its characteristics.

A foundation of 35 points allows high-level martial arts to reach the pinnacle of thinking speed, easily discerning subtle and complex changes.

The Crimson Sky Sword itself is a naturally occurring spirit, possessing exceptionally powerful, intense heat and sharpness.

Through resonance and fusion, Gao Wu has seen some fragments of the Crimson Sky Sword's memories and has gained a certain understanding of it.

Once the Yin Spirit and the Crimson Sky Sword have completely merged into one, it becomes exceptionally easy for Gao Wu to observe and comprehend the Crimson Sky Sword.

In addition, the Crimson Sky Sword itself is an extremely pure and powerful alien spirit, and its structure is like a wisp of solidified high-temperature light flame.

High temperature is the origin of the Crimson Sky Sword, and its sharpness is a natural change brought about by high temperature.

Having grasped the essence of the Crimson Sky Sword, Gao Wu felt that its temperature was more than ten times that of the Divine Light of Fire.

Moreover, this is because the Crimson Sky Sword has been sealed and depleted by the Frost God Domain, and its power has been reduced to its lowest level.

At its peak, the Crimson Sky Sword would probably be reduced to ashes if he only glanced at it from afar with his current cultivation level.

It was precisely because of this that he had the opportunity to subdue and refine the Crimson Sky Sword.

Three parts luck played a part, but the remaining seven parts were all due to the preparations he and Lao Qin had made.

Gao Wu completely controlled the Crimson Sky Sword through his Yin Spirit. In a state of high-speed mental activity, he even had the leisure to be proud of successfully refining the Crimson Sky Sword.

With the calculation time running out, Gao Wu immediately suppressed this distracting thought and imbued the Crimson Sky Sword with the White Tiger Divine Weapon Incantation.

The White Tiger Divine Weapon Spell, unleashed at its maximum potential, can barely reach the Saintly level. Based on the experience of high-level martial arts practitioners, this level of sharpness is still quite useful.

Even if the power were applied to the Heavenly Fate Sword, it might not be able to break through the ice dragon's scales. After all, it is a god-level being with an incredibly powerful body.

However, this is deep within the dragon's head. The Yin God is facing the soul of the Ice Dragon.

The souls of ordinary beings are illusory, but the dragon soul of a god-level ice dragon exists between the real and the illusory, existing stably in a form that is almost like transparent jelly.

When facing a dragon soul, the White Tiger Divine Weapon Spell can be very useful.

The Crimson Sky Sword itself is not sharp, and its power has now shrunk to its lowest level. It will not be easy to kill the Dragon Soul in one strike.

The White Tiger Divine Weapon Incantation not only possesses a sharp edge, but also a chilling aura capable of annihilating all life.

The most crucial element is still the Divine Light of Fire!

The Yin God was granted a title, the Vermilion Bird Divine Light Mantra was upgraded to the divine level, and the Divine Light of the Blazing Fire also reached the divine level.

The temperature of the Fire God Light is far lower than that of the Crimson Sky Sword, but it has the property of melting everything.

All of this power was then condensed into a sharp edge by Yinglongdao's extremely fierce and poisonous killing intent, giving the Chixiao Sword an added sharpness that could unleash its ferocity and poison.

The Crimson Sky Sword suddenly erupted with blazing divine light, which stretched straight up, piercing through the ice dragon's head and down its lower jaw.

The straight, blazing divine light seemed to pierce through all obstacles in an instant, even creating a hole in the endless ice cave...

The crimson light shone brightly, the crimson light shone brilliantly.

The ice dragon finally sensed something was wrong, but the dazzling crimson divine light had already pierced through its soul.

The coiled ice dragon let out a deafening roar, a roar that resonated at the level of the soul, a roar tinged with both rage and pain.

Even a level 10 divine life form cannot withstand the damage and excruciating pain brought by the Crimson Sky Sword.

The mental shockwave emitted by the dragon soul spread out with a roar, causing a huge impact on Yan Qiushui and Song Mingyue, who were standing close by.

Both women possessed strong spiritual cultivation, but amidst the dragon soul's furious roar, they were like a small boat in a raging tide. Their spiritual consciousness could only sway and float with the impact of the dragon soul, and they could be doomed at any moment.

Yan Qiushui and Song Mingyue could only tightly guard their own consciousness and not confront the impact of the dragon soul.

Fortunately, the dragon soul's angry roar was not targeted; it was merely an instinctive outburst from the ice dragon after being stimulated by intense pain.

The ice dragon's soul, which had been dormant for many years, was truly awakened by this stimulation. It immediately discovered the high-level martial artist wielding the Crimson Sky Sword, and an unusually weak spirit god.
Only now did the ice dragon realize that a spirit had infiltrated its spiritual world!

How could a spirit, which only a god-level being could possess, be so weak? So weak that it couldn't even sense it.

Under normal circumstances, the approach of any life form of the same level would awaken it. It is even less likely that the spirit of another would infiltrate its spiritual world.

The ice dragon was both astonished and furious. How dare such a tiny spirit god attack it?! Who gave this little thing the courage to provoke it?

Just as the ice dragon was about to unleash its extreme cold flames to kill its opponent, it was horrified to discover that its dragon soul could no longer circulate its power.

The crimson light, which had been trapped for many years, destroyed the foundation of the dragon soul in this eruption.

The main problem is that the severe damage it suffered many years ago has not been alleviated, and it continues to unleash the Frost God Domain to freeze the crimson light every day, constantly consuming its original power.

This despicable and shameful little spirit god is actually able to control the crimson light. The crimson light, which was already deep within the dragon's soul, was further activated, penetrating even the very essence of its soul.

No, there's another spirit outside!
The ice dragon suddenly realized that it was doomed, and it angrily wanted to tear everything apart and destroy everything.

However, with its original dragon soul destroyed, it could no longer control its power. All it could control was its shattered divine soul.

As death approached, the ice dragon deliberately detonated its dragon soul, which exploded into a sky full of icy blue flames.

Extreme cold ice flames are the foundation for the ice dragon's advancement to godhood, and also its strongest divine power.

Transforming the power of ice into the lowest temperature flame can burn away all life and fundamentally destroy the structure of matter.

As the Ice Dragon died, it sensed Gao Wu's Yin Spirit. The extreme cold flames from its self-destruction, fueled by the burning of its dragon soul, engulfed all directions, some pointing directly at Gao Wu's Yin Spirit, others at Qin Liuhe. This was the reason for the Ice Dragon's self-destruction; even in death, it wanted to destroy this despicable little thing!
The extreme cold flames covered the area like a surging tide, sweeping in all directions. The high-level Yin God, who was fully controlling the Crimson Sky Sword, had nowhere to hide, and several balls of extreme cold flames immediately landed on the Yin God.

Like a crimson glass spirit, it was instantly stained with large patches of icy blue.

The flames, burning at extremely low temperatures, are like flowers planted on the Yin spirit, with strands of icy flames taking root inward along with the Yin spirit.

Gao Wu immediately sensed something was wrong. Through the memory fragments of the Crimson Sky Sword, he knew the power of this extreme cold flame.

Gao Wu had only one thought: to sacrifice his Yin Spirit to save himself.

While a Yin God who has been elevated to the God-level realm is certainly valuable, he is ultimately just a manifestation and projection of his divine soul.

Even without the Yin Spirit, he can still condense it again. However, there's one problem: he might lose the Crimson Sky Sword!
The Crimson Sky Sword will certainly not be destroyed, but without the seal of the Frost God Domain, it cannot be controlled by anyone.

Even a powerful ice dragon couldn't refine the Crimson Sky Sword. Old Qin certainly has no way to do it either.

If we miss this opportunity, we will lose the Crimson Sky Sword forever!
Gao Wu hesitated for a moment after thinking about this. The great cause of the survival of the human race was too far away, so far away that it was beyond his reach and even beyond his perception.

His life hung in the balance, and he knew very well that the extreme cold and flames would burn him to ashes.

Is it really worth risking his life for just a so-called Crimson Sky Sword?

For some reason, Qin Jiuyue's calm face appeared in his mind at this moment!
Teachers, grandfathers, Sister Jun, Mingyue, junior sister, Lu Yuan, and so on, from teachers and elders to relatives and friends...

Finally, the face of the soldier who saved him appeared.

To be honest, he couldn't even remember what the other person looked like. He only remembered the other person's military uniform, the other person's blood-stained but determined eyes, and the other person's strong arms that were tightly holding him.

The survival of humanity is far removed from him, but his family and friends are by his side. He has survived until now because someone is protecting this world.

He enjoys top-tier resources, power and honor, and a wonderful life. Perhaps it's time for him to pay the price!

Gao Wu didn't think for long; a thousand thoughts raced through his mind in an instant, and he immediately made a decision.

The Yin Spirit, carrying the Crimson Sky Sword, transformed into light and returned to its original form. The extreme cold flames that the Yin Spirit was imbued with immediately appeared on Gao Wu's face and deep within his eyes.

Almost instantly, Gao Wu's head turned ice blue, which was the Yin spirit that had activated the Azure Dragon Divine Qi Curse. At this moment, it could also stimulate the body's powerful vitality to resist the extreme cold ice flames.

The divine-level Azure Dragon Divine Qi Mantra can be activated once every three seconds. The newly enhanced Yin Spirit and powerful spiritual energy have not yet finished resonating with heaven and earth, providing even greater power to high-level martial arts.

The Azure Dragon danced in the spiritual world of high martial arts, constantly stimulating source power from its sixty-four acupoints, while simultaneously drawing upon the essence of life to combat the extreme cold and flames.

The icy blue light, shining like flames, instantly spread to Gao Wu's chest, only to be slightly suppressed by the continuous activation of the Azure Dragon Divine Qi Curse.

Both Song Mingyue, who had lost an arm, and Yan Qiushui saw Gao Wu's strange behavior. Yan Qiushui was shocked, as Gao Wu was covered in a hundred or a thousand times more ice flames than she was.

She had just been touched by a trace of its aura, and if Song Mingyue hadn't sacrificed herself to save her, she would have been burned to death by the icy flames.

The large patches of ice flames covering Gao Wu's body were actually managing to put up a fight?!
Judging from Gao Wu's situation, it is very bad!
Yan Qiushui looked up, searching for Qin Jiuyue's whereabouts. Only a powerful figure like Qin Jiuyue could save Gao Wu at this moment.

However, Qin Jiuyue, who was standing above the dragon's head, did not react at all. He remained suspended in the air, surrounded by icy blue flames.

Yan Qiushui didn't know if Qin Jiuyue could subdue Bingyan, but she knew that he definitely didn't have the energy to deal with Gao Wu right now.

In fact, Gao Wu only resisted for two seconds before the icy blue flames continued to spread steadily throughout his body.

Seeing that Gao Wu's condition was getting much worse, Yan Qiushui was filled with anxiety when Song Mingyue took the initiative to hold Gao Wu's left hand with her right hand.

"Are you crazy! One person dying is enough, why do you really want them all to die?!"

Gao Wu shouted through mental resonance. He wanted to dodge, but his body was frozen by the extreme cold flames, and he was powerless to escape.

Regardless of what Gao Wu said, once their hands were joined together, Song Mingyue immediately activated the Tai Chi Twin Snakes.

Using the small-scale time-manipulation ability awakened by the Tai Chi Twin Snakes, Song Mingyue reversed the energy, like an invisible giant snake, devouring the extreme cold flames on Gao Wu's body.

This technique was exactly the same as the one she had used to absorb Yan Qiushui's ice flames, except that Gao Wu had too much extreme cold ice flames on his body. Song Mingyue had only absorbed less than half of the ice flames before her body was already covered with a layer of icy blue light flames.

Before taking action, Song Mingyue had already anticipated this situation. She showed no panic or anxiety; on the contrary, she remained remarkably calm and composed…

In a spiritual resonance, she said to Gao Wu, "If this continues, we will all die. Use the Dragon and Snake Dance to transfer the Ice Flame to me."

Gao Wu remained silent.

Song Mingyue then said earnestly, "You are stronger than me. I cannot accept a world without you."

At the critical moment of life and death, Song Mingyue remained very calm, even her words were so calm and even undisturbed, like a simple statement, without much emotion.

Gao Wu was emotionally charged, but he forced himself to calm down, knowing that getting agitated would not help.

Old Qin hasn't moved yet, so things must be bad. He and Xiao Song have to find a way to hold on for a few more seconds. If Old Qin gets here, they'll have a chance to survive...

He replied seriously, "You're making me sound very disloyal!"

"Today, we either live together or we die together; there is no third way!"

Yan Qiushui, who was standing to the side, could not hear the mental communication between Gao Wu and Song Mingyue, but she watched as the two of them were enveloped in ice flames. She was shocked and puzzled. It was clear that Song Mingyue knew there was no way to escape when she made her move.

There are truly people in the world who are willing to die for others without the slightest hesitation or doubt, as if it were their duty and their necessity!
Yan Qiushui suddenly realized that there really are emotions that can transcend life and death, and even surpass one's own limits...
