Su Han felt an irresistible chill rush towards him, and in the next instant, the icy blue light disappeared into his brow!

"Su Han!"

The sect leader and several elders immediately surrounded them, their expressions filled with surprise and uncertainty.

Su Han stood rooted to the spot, eyes closed, his body trembling slightly. A cold, azure sword-shaped mark slowly emerged between his brows, radiating a faint, chilling light. He could sense that the Tianya Sword… no, it was his senior sister's spirit, now residing within his sea of ​​consciousness!

"What...what's going on?" an elder exclaimed.

The sect leader examined Su Han's condition with a solemn expression. After a long while, he let out a long sigh, his expression extremely complicated: "Tianya... she actually chose to use Su Han's sea of ​​consciousness as a warm bed and Su Han's body as a sword sheath, temporarily residing within it. She is not rejecting the reshaping of her Dao body, but... she has chosen a more difficult, yet more intimate, path—sword spirit symbiosis!"

"Sword spirit symbiosis?!" Everyone was shocked.

The so-called sword spirit symbiosis is an extremely rare and dangerous state. The sword spirit no longer exists independently, but shares life and soul with its host; their fates are intertwined. This relationship is hundreds of times closer than that between an ordinary sword master and their sword spirit!
"No wonder she felt so close to Su Han's aura..." The sect leader murmured to himself, looking at Su Han with his eyes closed. "Tianya... what exactly are you planning? Could it be that you intend to..."

Just then, Su Han slowly opened his eyes. A flash of icy blue light passed through the depths of his eyes, and his temperament, which was already resilient, gained an indescribable coldness and sharpness.

"Su Han, how are you feeling?" the sect leader asked immediately.

Su Han sensed the dormant yet closely connected spirit within his sea of ​​consciousness, his expression complex, and slowly said, "Sect Master, Senior Sister... she's asleep in my sea of ​​consciousness. But I can feel that she's at peace. She said... this is good."

Upon hearing this, the sect leader remained silent for a long time before finally letting out a long sigh: "So be it. Perhaps this is Tianya's own choice, and also her destiny. Su Han, from this day forward, your fate and Tianya's will be intertwined. You need to adapt to this situation as soon as possible and improve your own strength; otherwise, once Tianya's spirituality is revived, it will be a great burden on you."

"Disciple understands." Su Han nodded solemnly. He could feel that although the spiritual energy in his sea of ​​consciousness was dormant, it was constantly absorbing his spiritual power and stellar energy to nourish it. This was a sweet burden, but also a heavy responsibility.

"Since Tianya has chosen this path, the sect will fully support it." The sect leader's expression turned serious as he solemnly declared, "Su Han, from this day forward, you will temporarily reside on Tianya Peak. The sect's Scripture Pavilion will be completely open to you; you can choose and practice any ice-type cultivation techniques or star arts! You need to improve your strength as soon as possible, at least reaching the Star Wheel Realm, in order to initially withstand the pressure of Tianya's complete spiritual revival!"

"Yes! This disciple will do his utmost to live up to the sect's expectations and senior sister's trust!" Su Han replied in a deep voice, his eyes burning with fighting spirit.

"Yes, go ahead." The sect leader waved his hand.

Su Han bowed to the sect leader and elders again, then turned and left the Spirit Gathering Pool. He walked down Tianya Peak step by step, feeling the spiritual connection in his sea of ​​consciousness that had been with him through thick and thin, his heart filled with mixed emotions.

Senior sister, sleep peacefully. From this day forward, my sword, Su Han's sword, will be your sword. My path, Su Han's path, will be our shared path!
The day I condense the Star Wheel will be the day we fight side by side again!
……

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, half a year has passed since the Tianya Sword Spirit and Su Han began to coexist.

For the past six months, Su Han has almost never left his residence, remaining on Tianya Peak in arduous cultivation. With the full support of the sect's resources, coupled with his incredible understanding of ice-type star power after coexisting with the Tianya Sword Spirit, his cultivation has progressed by leaps and bounds. On this day, in a secluded valley on the back mountain of Tianya Peak...

Su Han sat cross-legged on a huge piece of black ice, his eyes closed, and a faint icy blue mist emanated from his body. His aura had reached the peak of the Star Seed Realm, and the Star Seed in his dantian was full and round, shining brightly, and showing faint signs of condensing into a wheel.

"call……"

Su Han slowly exhaled a breath of stale air, his aura sharp as a sword, leaving a deep icy mark on the rock in front of him. He opened his eyes, and deep within them, an icy blue light flowed, profound and cold.

"After half a year of arduous training, I've finally reached this point." Su Han murmured to himself, feeling the surging star power within his body and the increasingly clear spiritual fluctuations in his sea of ​​consciousness, which seemed ready to awaken at any moment. "Senior Sister, today, I will attempt to condense a Star Wheel!"

The Star Wheel Realm is a significant watershed on the path of Star Cultivation. Condensing a Star Wheel signifies that Star Power transforms from abstract to concrete, from a single point to a surface, forming a self-sustaining and ever-renewing energy core, resulting in a qualitative leap in strength.

Without further hesitation, Su Han focused his mind on his dantian and began to fully circulate the Azure Cloud Technique. At the same time, he mobilized the wisp of primordial cold energy emitted by the Heavenly Sword Spirit in his sea of ​​consciousness and integrated it into his star power.

"Buzz!"

The star seed within his dantian trembled violently, its light growing ever brighter, resembling a miniature star. As a massive influx of stellar energy poured in, the star seed began to slowly deform, its edges gradually extending and transforming into a ring shape.

The process of condensing the star wheel is extremely dangerous; the slightest mistake could result in the star seed shattering and all cultivation being lost. Su Han held his breath and focused intently, carefully fusing his will with star power to guide the formation of the star wheel.

Time ticked by, and Su Han's forehead was covered in fine beads of sweat, his body trembling slightly, clearly under immense pressure. But just as the star wheel was about to take shape, a sudden change occurred!

Within his sea of ​​consciousness, the Tianya Sword Spirit, which had been dormant, seemed to sense that Su Han was at a crucial moment of breakthrough, and its spiritual fluctuations suddenly intensified! An extremely pure yet domineeringly powerful cold sword aura surged uncontrollably from Su Han's sea of ​​consciousness and instantly poured into his dantian!
"Not good!" Su Han was terrified. This sword energy was too domineering. If it rushed into the star wheel that was not yet fully formed, it would very likely destroy it directly!
In this critical moment, Su Han had a sudden inspiration. Instead of forcibly suppressing the sword energy, he guided the primordial sword energy belonging to Tianya to merge with his own star power and jointly construct the Star Wheel!

"Since we cannot resist, let us merge into one! With my foundation, I will inherit my senior sister's sword! Condense!"

With a low shout, Su Han's will was as firm as iron! Under his guidance, the domineering sword energy actually merged with the star power, transforming into mysterious ice-blue patterns that were engraved on the star wheel that was about to take shape!

"Om-!"

A clear, resonant hum resounded from Su Han's dantian, like a divine sword being drawn from its sheath! The originally dazzling star seed completely disappeared, replaced by a slowly rotating, perfectly round wheel, as if sculpted from ice crystal! The wheel was engraved with intricate and beautiful ice-blue patterns, radiating unparalleled sharpness and icy aura!

Star Wheel, complete! (End of Chapter)
