Tang Ye’s skin was originally copper colored, but it had become light golden colored now! Tang Ye slowly brushed past his chest with his right hand, and it felt completely hard. Tang Ye’s eyes narrowed. At this moment, his body was more than two times stronger than it was before this! After thinking for a while, Tang Ye roughly understood the reason for this. The transformation his physical body experienced could be said to be because of the Icesoul Fruit. Because Elder Mu had once said that the physical body had to be stimulated into order to be strengthened. Obviously, the stimulation from the Icesoul Fruit was sufficient to strengthen his body. After all, the harm it inflicted upon his body was on par with Elder Mu’s Nether Ghostflames! Of course, if it was merely the Icesoul Fruit, then it would definitely be unable to improve his physical body to such an extent. During the process that his body was being improved, the golden profound energy within his Vortex Dantian was probably the main force that fueled this transformation! The golden profound energy possessed extremely formidable offensive abilities, and its abilities of restoration were terrifying to the extreme as well. Every single time the golden profound energy within his Vortex Dantian cleansed his body, his physical body and strength would undergo as qualitative transformation! In short, the improvement of his strength and physical body this time was mainly because of the golden profound energy and the Icesoul Fruit! Otherwise, if he merely relied on the golden profound energy, then his physical strength and cultivation would probably be unable to improve to such an extent. Right at this moment, a strand of violet light flashed, and then the violet mink appeared in front of him. It flashed onto his shoulder before it rubbed its little head against Tang Ye’s face. Obviously, it was trying to curry favor with Tang Ye again.... Tang Ye took the violet mink in his arms, and he gazed at this little fellow that seemed so obedient now and said seriously, “Little Fellow, did you make me eat that Icesoul Fruit intentionally so the golden profound energy would help me?”Tang Ye wasn’t stupid. He knew that it was impossible for the little fellow to harm him, and this was something that was beyond any doubt. However, the little fellow had remained indifferent during the critical moment from before, so there was only one explanation, and it was that the little fellow had expected all of it. Moreover, it even had a plan to deal with it! The violet mink’s eyeballs spun about. When he saw this, Tang Ye hurriedly grabbed ahold of its little head and said, “Don’t lie to me. Did you do that intentionally so that the vortex would help me improve my strength?” After a short while, the violet mink nodded.... Tang Ye took a deep breath when he saw this, and then he asked. “Can you communicate with it?” The violet mink shook its head this time. “Then you were guessing just now?” Tang Ye spoke with astonishment. The violet mink felt slightly guilty, and it flashed onto Tang Ye’s shoulder before rubbing its head against Tang Ye’s face with all its strength.... Tang Ye laughed bitterly as he shook his head. He’d experienced how formidable his Vortex Dantian was a very long time ago. But it would never take the initiative to help him unless he was on the verge of death. Obviously, this was exactly the little fellow’s intentions.... But what if the tiny vortex did nothing to save me.... Tang Ye didn’t continue thinking along this line of thought because it was meaningless. The tremendous qualitative change in his strength was an undeniable fact, and he was much more confident to face those monstrous geniuses during the competition of the Ascension Rankings. Especially the strength of his physical body. According to his estimations, it wasn’t much different from the violet robed young man from the Steel Ape Clan who he’d met on that day! As for amongst the humans, there was probably almost no one in the younger generation who could rival his physical body! Tang Ye restrained his thoughts and asked the violet mink. “Little Fellow, can I eat another Icesoul Fruit?”If he ate another, and it allowed his strength and body to undergo such a transformation again, then he would still have two more that.... The violet mink hurriedly shook its head. It pointed its little claw at Tang Ye’s stomach, and then it started waving its claws to convey something. Tang Ye smiled and said, “Alright, don’t get anxious. I won’t eat it now!” He naturally understood the violet mink. It was conveying that he couldn’t eat another because the tiny vortex would definitely watch as he died this time. After all, it wasn’t an idiot, so it wouldn’t fall for the little fellow’s trick again! Bang! Right at this moment, a strand of rumbling suddenly resounded from outside the cave, and then the entire cave shook. In the next moment, it instantly collapsed. Tang Ye’s expression changed. He swiftly stomped his right foot on the ground, and his figure shot upward. At the same time, he drew his sword and slashed it up towards the large falling rocks! Bang! Everywhere Violet Spirit passed, countless rocks scattered downwards! After he leaped out of the cave, Tang Ye arrived above the collapsed cave, and he looked towards the distance. The curly bearded robust man from beneath the cliff on that day was staring fixedly at him from afar. Obviously, it was the robust man who caused the collapse of the cave! Tang Ye’s eyelids twitched when he saw this robust man. He’d never imagined that the robust man would actually chase him until here. At the same time, he felt fortunate in his heart. Because, if the robust man was a little bit earlier, then he would probably be dead.
