After several months, the Earth Sect was rapidly expanding, reaching a scale that had never been seen before. On the other hand, the Pill Sect was still maintaining their own growth at a steady pace. Although the royal family felt threatened, the Earth Sect's goal was clearly not the royal family.

Moreover, after a few months of cultivation, his second clone had become even more powerful, and the power he had nurtured had become even more apparent. At this moment, Duan Ru felt that he had already been silent for so long, so he should have appeared. Otherwise, the unlimited development of the Earth Sect would be a threat to his future.

Duan Jidao's goal in coming to Cold Ice City was not to win. More importantly, he was looking forward to the appearance of the Purple Flame Divine Dragon. Duan Meng seemed to have grasped the rules. As long as there was a Violet Flame Divine Dragon, there would be a Heavenly Refining Diagram. Although it was not the only one, it was still one of the options. The probability of this happening was high.

As long as a Purple Flame Divine Dragon appeared on the icy continent, he would try his best to snatch it. Apart from his own strength, organization and external help were inseparable. Therefore, the development of the Pill Sect was very necessary for Duan Meng, because not only could the Pill Sect bring a great amount of wealth to Duan Meng, but most importantly, the source of information was extremely wide. The only business the Pill Sect had was pill refining, pill refining with high standards and the ability to gather information.

Two clones training at the same time, as long as one had what kind of power, the other would definitely have it as well. Thus, right now, Duan Meng had a powerful trump card, no matter which clone was destroyed, the other would be able to produce a clone.

Even if Duan Shu's original body was destroyed, with the power of his avatar's soul, he could still create a true body. When Duan Meng condensed his second avatar, he would place the original body's soul seed onto the second avatar's body. At the same time, the second avatar's soul seed would also be on the original body. Now that he wanted to be reborn, it wasn't a very complicated matter. He just needed some energy.

Not to mention that this time, Duan Meng's body was merely destroyed. Not only was his soul annihilated, he had preserved 99.99% of his soul, which meant he had preserved 99.99% of his soul seed. If Duan Hu knew that Duan Sheng was someone that was easy to deal with, he would surely be shocked to the point that his jaw dropped and he would feel endless regret.

Of course, this was a secret of Duan Jian, a secret that no one could tell them. It was that the relatives of Duan Jian, such as Qi Liang, Xiao Fengxian, Hei Yan and Long'er all didn't know that Duan Jing had a second doppelganger. This time, Duan Jian became a Rogue Immortal. The four of them were very sad, especially Little Phoenix Fairy, who only told Qi Liang without Duan Jian telling them about the black rock and dragon. On one hand, he wanted Qi Liang to temporarily take over the sect in his place, and on the other hand, he wanted Qi Liang to pay close attention to the news of the sect. As long as the Earth Sect dared to invade, Duan Meng would quickly restore his original body and deal the Earth Sect a fatal blow.

Right now, Duan Ru possessed great power. Not to mention his second clone, he was even carrying a puppet with him. With a few dozen strategies and the Heavenly Refining Diagram, Duan Meng would be invincible against immortals. Adding Duan Ling Tian's clone, he would be able to sweep through the entire continent of ice. However, the second avatar, the swallowing beast, was Duan Jian's second most important card, so he couldn't casually reveal it.

As such, Duan Ru Yue wasn't worried; it was just that the Pill Sect had suffered some losses. As long as he showed himself, he would recover quickly. This was because Duan Meng also had a capable assistant, and that was the royal family. Even though the royal family's power was not as strong as the Earth Sect, they were the spiritual backbone of the Ice Continent. In the eyes of ordinary people, no matter how strong the Earth Sect was, they were still inferior to the royal family. Moreover, the royal family had ruled the continent for tens of millions of years. The rallying power of the royal family was something that no sect in the world of ice could compare to.

When Duan Meng began his rebirth, he would hand over all of his soul cores to his second clone, who would then use his spiritual force to build his physical body. The second clone then placed a soul seed into an energy shield and poured a massive amount of energy into it. Gradually, it formed a cocoon, and the soul seed began to slowly grow.

Even with a puppet protector at the level of heavenly tribulation, Duan Ru Yue wouldn't dare to joke around with his life. If he was interrupted during his rebirth, it was extremely likely that he would fail. Not only was there no hope of rebirth, even his second doppelganger would be affected.

A soul seed wasn't something that could be used without any limits. As long as it was used once, a tiny seed would create a true body. As long as the original body formed a seed, the other soul seeds would lose their ability to regenerate. This was also the limitation of the Heavenly Dao. If a single soul seed could be reborn into a true body, then there would be tens of millions of seeds. Wouldn't that mean that he could be reborn into tens of thousands of encounters? If that was the case, Duan Ru Yue wouldn't have to go through so much effort. Sending out his tens of millions of clones would allow him to sweep across the entire 36 continents.

However, the Heavenly Dao is fair. If I open a door for you, I will close a window for you. The benefits were shared and not monopolized by just one person. This was the reason why the boundless universe was formed; this was the Heavenly Dao. It could be said that he was already invincible in the mortal world, but he still met many opponents, including the Earth Sect. Therefore, Duan Ling Tian's life wasn't an uneventful one, and there were also obstacles and difficulties.

Duan Jian's original body grew within the silkworm chrysalis and did not move at the start. His second doppelgänger had given his original body a massive reserve of energy. After the soul seed absorbed the energy, it continuously evolved the energy, and the body continued to grow. First, it was an embryo in the silkworm's chrysalis, followed by the appearance of a nascent soul.

The nascent soul slowly grew, already possessing the shape of a human, but it needed more and more energy. The second clone did not store enough energy for the original, and the original began to draw out the second clone's energy. However, the second clone's swallowing beast itself was a huge energy bank, so the original body shouldn't have to worry about absorbing energy.

However, as time passed, the silkworm chrysalis absorbed the energy faster and faster, causing its second clone to feel the pressure. An enormous amount of energy was extracted, causing the second clone to feel a sense of dread. If he were to extract energy at this rate, even if Ben was able to successfully do so, he would still be able to completely absorb the energy from the second doppelganger. The second clone became an empty shell, only the soul seed was left.

If that was the case, then Duan Ru Yue wouldn't be able to make up for the loss. After rebirth, he would lose his second doppelgänger and Duan Ru Yue would lose his trump card. This was also unimaginable. The core of Duan Meng's soul was quickly being calculated. He would either become his true body or his second doppelganger. If he had to choose between the two, Duan Meng would definitely choose his true body. This was because the original body was a human, and was Duan Meng's favorite. Even though the second clone was even stronger, the second clone was a swallowing beast, something Duan Meng couldn't accept. The problem was that Duan Jian didn't want to give up, so the problem arose.

With a flash of inspiration, Duan Ling Tian poured the second clone's spiritual force into the original body and immediately had a reaction. This was because his spiritual force was trying to seize control of the original body, trying to stop the absorption of the second doppelgänger's energy. It was trying to absorb the energy of the universe itself. This way, not only would the danger be eliminated, the original body's power would also be strengthened.

The great thing was that Duan Ling Tian's spiritual force was incomparably strong. He smoothly took over the main position and started absorbing the energy between heaven and earth. At the beginning, the absorption process was still slow. As it began to expand, Duan Meng felt as if a massive energy vortex had formed around the chrysalis.

The origin energy between heaven and earth swarmed over, rushing into Duan Jian's original body's silkworm chrysalis. The silkworm chrysalis also kept growing, and soon after, it became the size of an adult silkworm pupa. The absorption finally stopped, and the energy whirlpool disappeared. What he saw was the pupa constantly changing.

With a "peng" sound, the original body's chrysalis exploded, and a naked person drilled out of it. Naturally, this was Duan Meng's original body. Even Duan Meng's second doppelgänger was incomparably envious when he saw it. Because the rebirth of his original body was simply too perfect.

Everything was over. Duan Yi's soul core had returned to his original body's Sea of Consciousness. Duan Meng had recovered all of his original body's strength. After sensing for a bit, his power was actually at the ninth level of the Nascent Soul Stage. Duan Ling Tian was not only overjoyed, he also quickly put on a set of clothes and walked out of the Diagram as he loudly shouted, "Qi Liang, Xiao Fengxian, Hei Yan, Long'er, where are you? Quickly come and see me!"
