Chapter 914 - Unexpected

In the Water Vein Spirit Room on the west mountain, Ding Rulan was still refining the Earth Yin Cold Spring Water in the teapot drop by drop.

Every time she refined a drop of the Earth Yin Cold Spring, she would clearly feel an ice-cold and comfortable aura circulating within her body. She could even feel that the spiritual energy in her body seemed to have become more comfortable after fusing with this aura, and her cultivation had even increased accordingly.

This kind of feeling made Ding Rulan unable to stop, especially after Yang Junshan left, the second timehe refined the Earth Yin Cold Spring, she did not reach the two hours that Yang Junshan instructed his to. However, the result was not only there was nothing wrong with it, it even made her cultivation seem to grow even faster than the first time.

After all, his teacher had once said that he was not proficient in the inheritance of the water element, and had allowed him to fumble around on his own and take the lead. Previously, his luck was bad, forcefully training and his physique did not match each other’s Thunder Ability and his meridians were damaged, but now, this Earth Yin Cold Spring was too compatible with him, to the point where he could refine it with almost no effort at all. His teacher’s instructions seemed more likrecaution.

In the midst of the pleasant sensation of being able to clearly feel the growth of her cultivation, Ding Rulan slowly shortened the time between two hours that Yang Junshan had specially instructed him to do so. However, he did not realize in the slightest that as she refined more and more Earth Yin Cold Spring, her skin under her clothes had already become dyed with a layer of crystal like green.

After she had finished refining the thirty-sixth drop of the Earth Yin Cold Spring, Ding Rulan, who had not finished yet, once again raised her hand and pulled out a drop of the Earth Yin Cold Spring from the ice teapot. Suddenly, she heard a crisp sound, as if a frozen layer of ice was cracking.

Not good!

As this thought flashed across Ding Rulan’s mind, she discovered that the spirit energy that was gushing out of her body was much denser than any other time before. Worse, because her arm had suddenly become stiff, the spirit energy that was gushing out did not accurately focus on the ice sealing the spout, but instead directly smashed into the ice teapot.

“Crack, crack, crack …”

The ice layer on the surface of the teapot was immediately shattered. The entire body of the teapot was pushed back by the Spiritual Energy, first hitting the wall of the Spirit Room, then rebounding and falling onto the ground. It even rolled a few times towards the center of the Spirit Room before falling into the Spirit Spring Water that was drawn out by the use of a water vein.

Ding Rulan opened her eyes wide, thinking that this time, she had caused a great disaster, she immediately wanted to stand up and fish out the teapot from the spring.

Unexpectedly, there were more kacha sounds. Her body was stiff and unable to move, but the force that surged out from her body was still there, immediately turning Ding Rulan over.

However, she soon discovered that something even more serious had happened. Although she had been knocked to the side, she still retained roughly the same posture as when she was sitting down during cultivation, making her look like a sculpture. Only now did she notice that her hands had already turned into the color of green ice, causing her to be extremely shocked, but at the same time, she couldn’t even open her mouth.

“Gulp.”

Ding Rulan who was lying stiffly on the ground could still hear the sound, and could also look over to where the sound originated, but she saw that there was a splash in the spring, and he thought that it was terrible, the Earth Yin Cold Spring in the teapot had leaked out from the spring, blending together with the spirit spring, it was impossible to retrieve the Earth Yin Cold Spring even if she took back the teapot.

Just as Ding Rulan was feeling upset, she suddenly found that the water in the spring was churning, and the water vapor on it suddenly increased, to the point of emitting dense steam.

Although Ding Rulan couldn’t move, she was still curious. Wasn’t Earth Yin Cold Spring an extremely Yin item?

However, she immediately heard a slight “cha-cha” sound from her body. Ding Rulan rolled her eyes, and suddenly realized to her horror that after the white mist came out from the spring, it had instantly condensed into layers of white ice crystals the moment it came into contact with her body. Then, it started to spread throughout her entire body.

It was only at this moment that Ding Rulan remembered her current situation. Her entire body was stiff, as if she had been frozen into an ice sculpture from inside to outside.

Am I going to die…

Ding Rulan realized that she was clearly going to die, but her thoughts and gaze were still unaffected. She watched as the layer of ice on her body became thicker and thicker, until only the outline of a human remained.

Within the oven room, on top of an opened copper colored crafting furnace, a pair of gloves that looked exactly the same auman’s palm was playing with each other. The two squirrels were jumping and chasing each other on the five fingers of one glove, and every time one of them was about to catch up, the other glove would be blocked, and with a “Pa” sound, it was like two palms hitting each other. As the two squirrels chased after each other faster and faster, the frequency of the two gloves hitting their palms became faster and the sounds became more concentrated.

As Spiritual Master Xiao looked at the two gloves chasing each other, a trace of envy appeared in his eyes as he said, “Congratulations to teacher for refining another treasure. Congratulations to Taoist Yang for obtaining another treasure.”

Yang Junshan hurriedly said, “This is all because of Senior Seven Treasures’ outstanding refining techniques. Oh, no, from now on, I will call you Senior Eight Treasures!”

“Hahahaha…”

The Adept Qibao, oh no, the Eight Treasures Grandmaster laughed out loud, obviously he was very satisfied with the success of the creation of the treasure, but the Eight Treasures Grandmaster had experienced many battles before, after appreciating his own work for a while, he quickly recovered from his previous satisfaction, and said: “Taoist Yang should put away the treasure first, I’m afraid that there are already many people in the South Heaven Gate market that have noticed the phenomenon of the treasure being made.”

“Oh?”

Although Yang Junshan was somewhat puzzled, he still extended out his hand. This pair of meat colored gloves swirled in the air for a moment, and then, flew over to his extended hands, directly covering them. It was likhin layer of film, and if one did not carefully look at them, they were basically no different from his hands.

The instant the gloves were worn on his hands, a pair of squirrels appeared on the giant peak of his dantian.

When the Mountain Monarch Seal Spirit Riding Tiger saw something else appear, he suddenly raised his head from the side of the mountain and roared, as if he was announcing his status and dividing the area of influence.

The pair of small squirrels appeared on top of the Sky Splitting Peak. Before they could observe their new landing spot, they were startled by the mountain tiger artifact spirit’s explosive roar and began to cry out.

A sliver of contempt appeared in the eyes of the mountain tiger artifact spirit’s copper bells. It was as if it was looking down on the two little fellows.

Unexpectedly, this pair of squirrels were angered by the tiger’s disdainful gaze, and the two little squirrels’ small bodies shuttled back and forth on the giant peak, and soon approached the tiger from the left and right. They agilely jumped into the air, and grabbed the tiger’s long tail; one of them agilely turned its body in the air, and after dodging the tiger’s huge mouth, ruthlessly scratched its head.

What was this?

As the spirit of Yang Junshan’s Intrinsic Artifact, the Mountain Tiger immediately felt its authority being provoked greatly. It immediately jumped up from the ground, flung the squirrel above its head into the air, then turned around and pounced towards the other squirrel on its tail.

The squirrel that was sent flying over its head somersaulted and landed lightly on the ground. The squirrel on its tail flashed and avoided the huge mouth of the mountain tiger.

The lynx was getting more and more angry. It lunged at the two squirrels. However, the squirrels were not as agile as the two squirrels, and they seemed to havacit understanding of each other.

At the center of the giant mountain peak, the pangolin was lazily resting on the handle of its mace. It looked at the noisy scene nearby and snorted, saying, “Truly a stupid tiger!”

A moment later, the mountain tiger artifact spirit finally realized that it wouldn’t be able to take the upper hand if this continued. It roared and jumped out of the battle, but the two squirrels also couldn’t stop it.

If the two squirrels came forward again, it would just sweep the tail of the tiger away, forcing the two squirrels to turn around and flee. Foime, neither of the two squirrels dared to cause trouble for the other two, and the two squirrels began to build a shelter a little further from the top of the mountain, and the mountain tiger spirit seemed to have silently acknowledged the existence of the two squirrel spirits.

When the pangolin spirit saw that there was no more excitement, it closed its eyes and continued to sleep. From beginning to end, neither the tiger nor the two squirrels dared to provoke it.

Yang Junshan felt the pair of gloves on both of his hands, and praised: “It’s extremely skillful, to think that it’s not any different from a human’s skin, even if this junior wore it on his hands, I wouldn’t be able to detect its existence.”

The Eight Treasures Grandmaster laughed, “Young friend Yang is too kind. Now that the Dharma treasure has been completed but has yet to be named, why don’t you give me a name? It’s not like this old man’s three years of hard work has gone to waste.”

“Of course!”

Yang Junshan nodded his head, and muttered to himself: “This pair of gloves is originally a pair of silver palms, and since it contains spatial energy, in junior’s opinion, it should be called ‘Yin Kong’!”

“Although this’ Yin Kong ‘is the shell of a high-grade treasure, his own artifact spirit is only comparable to it. The power is naturally unsatisfactory, but as long as little friend focuses on nurturing it, in the future, when your spirit increases, the power of the treasure will naturally follow suit.”

Yang Junshan said sincerely: “Thank you for your advice, senior.”

However, the Eight Treasures Daoist Master smiled and said, “If this old man’s guess is correct, the cultivation technique that little friend Yang cultivates should be Dao Level Inheritance, right?”

Yang Junshan was startled, but then he heard the Eight Treasures Daoist Master continue, “Usually, the nurturing of a treasure spirit is because the higher the rank of the cultivator’s cultivation technique, the better it is. Little friend, you only need to nurture it carefully, in the future, this artifact spirit will not only be able to be matched with high grade treasures, but it might even be able to be raised tigher grade in the future.”
