Chapter 567: Tempering the Body, Refining the Soul, and Improving Cultivation
"But it's quite troublesome to maintain this thing. It needs to be based on ten thousand year old cold jade and sprinkled with rootless snow water every day. It can't be near fire, otherwise the ice crystal leaf veins will collapse immediately and the spiritual energy will dissipate like an avalanche."
After Linglong finished speaking, she felt that it was not as troublesome as she had thought.
"This is not too bad. Apart from the Ten Thousand Years Cold Jade, everything else is not difficult to find."
He then activated the pseudo-ice spiritual root, raised his hand, and suddenly a group of snowflakes appeared in front of him.
If we collect these snowflakes, they become rootless snow water.
Don’t think about other things for now, just collect the good things you can see in front of you.
The two began to walk forward, shoveling the ice crystal moss on the left and right.
When people collect good things, they not only don’t feel pain, but they also don’t feel tired.
I couldn't even think about the danger outside.
Fortunately, the black whale is too large to enter the narrow ice crevices.
Even Si Yu's internal injuries healed unknowingly while she was happily collecting ice crystal moss.
When the two of them filled a storage ring with ice crystal spirit moss, the view ahead suddenly became clear.
The two of them turned their eyes away, but they did not forget to shovel away the last piece of ice crystal moss with their hands.
The entire ice tunnel was enlarged by the two of them.
Only then did he look at the shocking scene ahead.
In the spherical cave ahead with a diameter of a thousand feet, there was a pile of crystal bones like a small mountain.
Clusters of ice crystals grow on every bone.
The intact remains of a black-bone whale in the center were condensed with crystals as big as a human head. What was even more magical was that the icicles hanging from the top of the cave were dripping milky white liquid, which formed a shallow pool among the skeletons.
"Is this the cave of the Black Bone Whale?"
Si Yu blurted out.
The two looked at each other and couldn't help but stare at each other in surprise.
-
Could it be that they had just escaped from the Black Bone Whale and ran to someone else's cave in the blink of an eye?
A chill rose from behind him, fearing that a black-bone whale would emerge from somewhere in the next second.
After all, this thing is almost immortal in this environment, unless its lifespan is over.
Otherwise, no matter how serious the injury is, people will just hide in the ice.
Not to mention killing him, there is no way to find out where he is hiding.
Of course, in the face of absolute strength, it is not that they are completely unkillable, but Si Yu and Ling Long do not have that strength yet.
"Wait, this doesn't look like a cave."
Linglong carefully observed the surrounding environment.
After thinking about it, I felt that it might not be a cave.
If it were a cave, the journey here wouldn't be so safe.
"If I'm not mistaken, Senior Sister, this is most likely the place where the Black Bone Whale sheds its bones."
Linglong said this and pulled Siyu forward.
Every step was taken with extreme caution, but the good news is that there was indeed no sense of crisis.
Walking to the shallow pool, Linglong squatted down and carefully touched the water.
Ice crystals immediately formed on my fingertips, and I felt a strong chill.
But this cold air did not hurt her meridians, but made her feel very comfortable.
It's like taking a sip of an ice drink on a hot summer day.
"Senior sister, please try."
As she spoke, she pointed to the shallow pool in front of her.
Si Yu stretched out a finger doubtfully.
Then he raised his eyebrows.
This cold air actually resonated with the pseudo spiritual roots in the body.
At this moment, Linglong seemed to see faintly some silver sand at the bottom of the pool.
After taking a closer look, he immediately smiled:
"Look at the bottom of the pool, that looks like 'Cold Marrow Star Sand'."
After saying this, he felt that he had made a huge profit on this trip to the secret realm.
Although I had good luck in the past, I didn’t expect that my luck would be especially good this time following Senior Sister Si Yu.
"What's the use?"
Si Yu did not hide the fact that she knew nothing about this.
Linglong understood it. After all, her senior sister was a fire-type cultivator and a physical cultivator, so it was normal for her not to know.
"Cold Marrow Star Sand can strengthen both the body and the soul. I have only seen relevant records in ancient books. This thing may not be purchased even if you have spirit stones."
They are lucky enough to come across it.
However, luck and crisis coexist. If they had not encountered the black bone whale, they might not have been able to get into the ice crevice.
-
"Senior Sister, the cold marrow star sand is not easy to store. I don't have any storage equipment with me."
If we could take some of it out, we could sell it for a sky-high price.
However, the storage conditions for this thing are extremely harsh, and she had never thought that she would encounter such a treasure.
So I didn't prepare in advance.
"In that case, let's refine it here."
As they spoke, the two of them decisively took off their somewhat damaged robes and stepped into the shallow pool.
The extreme cold instantly invaded the whole body.
His whole body was instantly covered with a layer of ice crystals.
But soon different changes happened to both of them.
Linglong is a water-type spiritual root. The moment the ice crystals cover her, her gentle spiritual power melts the ice crystals.
Si Yu is different.
She sensed that this was no ordinary freeze.
The silvery-white sand actually penetrated into the meridians through the pores and turned into ten thousand tiny ice stars in the blood vessels.
Si Yu frowned slightly and saw a spider-web-like ice-blue light path appearing under her skin.
She originally thought that her body had been polished to perfection.
You didn't expect that you haven't reached your limit yet.
-
The first to collapse are the superficial muscles.
Wherever the cold marrow star sand passed, muscle fibers broke and reassembled like guitar strings.
The newly born skin presents a jade-like luster.
When the tempering spread to her bones, the gurgling sound of boiling bone marrow actually sounded like fire in her skull.
The originally light golden bones were actually dyed silver-blue by the star sand.
And in the sea of consciousness, it seemed as if an icy rain was falling, and each icy spike pierced the phantom of the soul with great precision.
She seemed to see herself nailed in mid-air.
In reality, Si Yu gritted her teeth and didn't let herself make any sound.
Suddenly, an extremely thick ice spike pierced into the soul.
This pain was not as direct as the pain in the body, but instead made her feel like she was dying.
Blood flames of golden-red toes spurted out from all seven orifices at the same time.
Fortunately, this pain did not last long.
Not long after, Si Yu discovered that her soul seemed to have become a little different.
The original soul was just a phantom floating in the sea of consciousness.
Not only is the soul now extremely solid, but ice crystal veins have also appeared on it.
Only at this moment did Si Yu understand the true value of this thing.
This thing can actually replenish the soul and repair the foundation of Taoism.
No wonder Linglong was so excited just now.
At this moment, they were somewhat glad that they did not take this thing out. Even if they did, they might not be able to protect it.
Soon, the tempering of the body awakened the internal organs.
The heart is wrapped in ice crystals like a cocoon, and the lungs are condensed with frost flowers...
Just when the body tempering was about to be completed, the Axe of Creation placed beside the pond suddenly flew up on its own.
It was actually absorbing the energy of the ice marrow crystal cluster on the skeleton next to it.
King Si Yu never expected that while he was using the cold marrow star sand to temper his body, the surrounding spiritual energy was actually also continuously flowing into his acupuncture points.
Spirit vortexes formed one after another.
When she suddenly stood up from the pool, she felt the tremendous power in her body.
The aura of the late stage of the Spirit Severing Realm emanated from his body.
Soon she restrained her breath again.
I clenched my fists full of strength, and my originally restless heart suddenly calmed down.
