A week before the Battle Maiden Sect Entrance Exams, outside Snow Maiden City were lines of people waiting to enter the city. Although the city has multiple entrances for scenarios exactly like this, the lines to enter were still incredibly long.


    However, these lines are only for people that don''t have a permit to enter the city or some form of identification that proves they are part of the Battle Maiden Sect.


    A few kilometers outside the city, arge golden wolf was flying through the air with three people and a small fox on its back.


    Seeing the people lined up outside the city and not wanting to cause trouble, the golden wolfnded a ways away from the lines.


    "Wow~ Look at those mountains! How beautiful!" The blonde-haired woman eximed, seeing the mountain range behind the city while holding onto a small red fox.


    "Alright, we can get a better look at the mountainster. For now, we need to enter the City and learn and gather some information about the Entrance Exam. Dominique, remember to stay close to me. I can feel a lot of strong people in and around the city. I don''t want you to get lost." A tall woman with nine fox tails and cute fox ears said sternly.


    Dominique, the blue-haired child, nodded her head and said, "Alright, Mother," and held onto the woman''s hand.


    These five are Mira, Maria, Dominique, Rhydian, and Vulcan. Thanks to Rhydian''s new speed, they were able to make it to Snow Maiden City quickly all the way from Lunar Fox City.


    Unfortunately, they weren''t able to take any stops along the way, so Mira was unable to test the limits of her new strength. She did find that her Ice Daoprehension has increased and that she''s actually able to use the Yin version of all the basic elements except for Light. So, the elements that she''s now able to use are Yin Fire, Earth, Water, Wind, Magma, and Lightning. She can also use the Ice and Dark Elements, but those are already Yin-type elements, to begin with.


    Well, Earth and Wind are more neutral, but due to Mira''s physique, they lose their yang properties and have their yin properties strengthened.


    Mira also found that every element other than her Ice and Yin Fire the other elements are incredibly weakpared to her current strength. Naturally, her Ice element is the strongest, with her Yin Fireing at a not-so-close second. Surprisingly, her third strongest element is actually the Dark element.


    Although Mira now had ess to all these elements, she had little to no interest in specializing or actively learning more about them. The only reason she''s even able to use these elements to a certain extent is because of her physique and her Absolute Ice Dao.


    After breaking through, she''s gained a bit more insight into what it means to walk down an ''Absolute'' Dao. It''s not as simple as just being the strongest. That''s certainly part of it, but to be absolute, you have to be perfect, universally valid, and something that''s able to exist without the need for anything else. At least, that''s what Mira understood. She could be wrong, but she didn''t think she was too far off.


    However, the ice element is only a part of a whole. Ice can''t exist without the other elements. So then, how can she follow the path of the Absolute Ice Dao? Mira figured there were two ways to go about this. She can either try and separate the ice element from the other elements or integrate the other elements into her ice.


    She''s nowhere near strong enough to even think about removing an element from needing the other seven elements, nor could she evenprehend how to go about doing such a thing. Since that''s the case, she can only try and integrate the other elements into her ice element!


    That''s the reason for her being able toprehend other elements!


    Though, Mira was still a long way away from being able to do such a thing. She''d probably have to reach 100%prehension in each element if she wanted to seed in such a thing. Only when she fully understands the profundities of each element will she be able to understand her Dao fully.


    There''s just one thing she was a bit confused about. She can''t use the Light Element! No, it''s more like her body rejects the thought of trying to understand the Light Element. Not only that, but it seems she''s weak to the Light Element as well!


    During their journey, she made Maria create a Light Sword and use it to make a small cut on her arm, but she could feel her defenses copse a bit in front of Maria''s Light Element.


    Mira didn''t understand why she was suddenly weak to Light, and the Guardian only said that it''s technically not Light she''s weak to, but he didn''t exin any further.


    Naturally, Mira was a bit frustrated, but what could she do? She can only keep moving forward, and hopefully, once she''s strong enough, the answers wille naturally. Either that or she gets strong enough to beat the answers out of the Guardian!


    Other than that, Mira also learned that not only is her cultivation speed incredibly fast, but she doesn''t even have to actively cultivate in order to raise her cultivation! Her body naturally draws in the surrounding Qi and refines it in her Core, though the process is incredibly slowpared to if she were to focus on cultivating.


    Thest thing Mira learned during her journey to Snow Maiden City is that her Hell Scythe Cultivation Technique seemed to have undergone some sort of change. She knew that something happened to it when she epted the F.LD.I.L inheritance and became its sessor, but she wasn''t able to see the changes until now.


    No, saying it changed isn''t exactly correct. It''d be more urate to say it waspleted. Not only is it a technique that Mira can keep using until she ascends to the Immortal World (she''ll need to unlock the next version in a F.LD.I.L trial to continue cultivating it after ascending), but the effects of using such a cultivation technique are now more clearly defined.


    For example, when Mira looks in her Soul Sea, her scythe is now surrounded by a reddish-ck aura lined with small ck runes.


    Whenever she cultivates, this aura gets stronger and more refined.


    p Although Mira hasn''t been able to test the effects of this aura, she can feel it''s quite dangerous.</anda>


    Those are the only things Mira was able to learn about herself during her journey to Snow Maiden City. There are plenty more mysteries to unravel about her new powers, but that''ll have to wait.


    Right now, she has to focus on getting into the City without causing too much trouble because of her tails…
