Lady Lin's First-ever Journey to Immortality Chapter 509 - The Showdown of Ice and Snow (II)

Chapter 509 The Showdown of Ice and Snow (II)

Lin Luoran thinks the charm of “Cultivation” is probably about these wonderful changes happening at this moment. Even a little change in the structure of substance can bring about wonderful results. It’s just like carbon atoms. Arranged differently, carbon atoms can become ordinary graphite or brilliant diamonds.

From water to snow, and then to ice, the substance remains the same but the wonderful presentations are different. It presents natural sciences Lin Luoran learned in her youth and makes her nostalgic.

The simple word “melt” she said undoubtedly shocked Liao and Lin Luoran’s enemy.

The ice and snow layer under their feet melts, and the snow water quickly seeps into the soil, nouris.h.i.+ng the gra.s.sland which was frozen. Verdant greenness appears in places which were totally covered by snow before. Even the ice on cyan little fox and Baojia has melted. Lying on the gra.s.s and panting, it still looks fine after being trapped for so long.

It’s a pity that Baojia is still unconscious.

No one knows what Baojia is going through at this moment. Lin Luoran is a little worried that Baojia is frowning in the coma.

The ice and snow continue to melt, centering on Lin Luoran, with a large piece of green spreading, even to the feet of “Chiyou”. It shows its potential to unfreeze the whole Green Mountains—it is a pity that the man in robe is not here to write word figures in person. Lin Luoran doesn’t dare to waste her personal ability of Gathering Vitality at will. Unfreezing the whole Green Mountains is obviously a crazy and stupid idea.

Her main purpose is to release cyan little fox, Baojia, and all kinds of ice pupas hanging upside down in the stone hall behind “Chiyou”.

The melting of the snow is totally spreading towards where “Chiyou” is. Chiyou suddenly wakes up from some kind of memory and his grunts. suddenly stopped the melting three feet in front of him.

He even takes a big step forward, forcing Lin Luoran to retreat.

Both of them are surrounded by ice and snow. But the difference is that what surrounds Chiyou is a ma.s.s of black, while what surrounds Lin Luoran is white. It’s obvious that they are enemies from different camps.

“Hey, b.l.o.o.d.y fox, are you okay?”

Liao kicks cyan little fox which has been lying on its stomach for a long time. The fox gnashes its teeth and respond, “An animal trap? You actually used an animal trap to catch a member of the nine-tailed royal family… how dare you!”

Cyan little fox is furious, which makes Liao a little guilty, “It’s a mistake in chaos. Just forgive me.”

Cyan little fox is so angry at Liao that it even suddenly laughs. It knows that this is true. The incident happened suddenly. If the animal trap had not been there to deal with the ice and snow, it would not have been able to remain sober for so long.

However, it was also the fault of the d.a.m.n animal trap that the fox was trapped in the ice but couldn’t fight back at all. This is Green Mountains, the territory of nine-tailed fox family! Well, no matter who the invader is, it should never be so awkward!

Cyan little fox climbs along Liao’s trousers and jumps on Liao’s shoulders. It whispers in Liao’s ear.

“Chiyou is a bit strange.”

Liao keeps nodding in agreement. Chiyou is the former leader of the Jiuli tribe. Even if he decided to be a villain, it was still very weird that he imprisoned a member of the nine-tailed fox tribe. It seemed that he hadn’t totally lost his mind. Why did he beat his own people when they met?!

“Catching me but not killing me… it is obviously not to attract you to be here, old man…”

This problem has haunted cyan little fox for a few days. In its view, the remnant soul of the former Nihonese woman 300 years ago is not the major concern at all. “Chiyou” in front of them has been acting so strangely. If he wants to be resurrected, he can just stay with those Azurite in Green Mountains. Anyway, Chiyou has waited for so many years that the pa.s.sage of time will not be a big deal for him. Why did he choose to cover mountains with ice and snow? If he wants to resurrect, he can do it quietly. It’s so stupid for him to do all of this!

Lin Luoran is surrounded by snow and ice and it makes her look especially dignified. Cyan little fox racks its brain and still can’t understand why Chiyou is so crazy. At this moment, Lin Luoran takes the lead and flies out in the air. A cloud of black also chases up. Wind and snow become fiercer. The black and the white are going to stack up against each other.

Cyan little fox gradually recovers, and its frozen thought also comes back to life.

Seeing Lin Luoran can hardly bear the more aggressive attack from Chiyou, cyan little fox’s dangling tail suddenly stiffens.

Could it be that Chiyou kept their lives just to attract stupid Lin Luoran?

“Weird. They don’t even have a history.”

Cyan little fox mutters to itself and then drags Liao’s hair, “Hey, where’s the crystal?”

Isn’t the crystal falling from the altar in Linny’s hands? Chiyou being pinned down by Lin Luoran, Liao understands that this is their chance to turn things around.

Putting away the pastel hill, they are not frozen immediately. Liao puts the pastel hill in the arms of Baojia who is still unconscious. He then runs to the stone hall with cyan little fox.

The cyan little fox jumps off Liao’s shoulder and all her way up to the altar near the stone temple. With Chiyou out of their way, their operations are exceptionally successful.

Looking at the unguarded altar, the human and fox look at each other. If they get the crystal stone, won’t it be like taking Chiyou at his throat right away?

Liao points at all kinds of ice pupas above his head, “Linny gave the crystal and several subst.i.tutes to these monsters. We wanted them to help deal with the trouble. However, they were so weak that they got caught as soon as they met him.”

Liao carefully identifies for a while, and then points out a few monsters. The cyan little fox has a flexible tail. In the glowing green light, some ice pupas are rolled down to the ground carefully.

“Can you unfreeze them?”

Glareing at the fox, Liao seems despising the cyan little fox raising this question. If he has even a little personal ability, won’t it be easy to defeat Chiyou with his tons of weapons?

Cyan little fox sighs. As it remembers that Liao actually used the animal trap to catch it, its young face is full of desperate frustration.

Anyway, the ice-covered monsters on the ground are still its subjects. It should save them.

The fox family is good at illusion spells and also knows some other arts of nature. Spirit animals like nine-tailed celestial foxes do not need to learn from a master. As race inheritance awakes, the corresponding arts of nature knowledge of every period will also awake.

Spirit animals grow up very slowly. When cyan little fox first met Lin Luoran, it led a vagrant life outside the Green Mountains. Although it had lived for many years, it was in fact a juvenile with one tail and no power to protect itself. Only after years of personal ability enhancement in the Green Mountains did it grow a second tail. But this is the awakened inheritance of nine-tailed celestial foxes, which also helped it learn illusion spells and some other arts of nature.

Melting ice is not difficult. Cyan little fox changes its long tail into needles which wrap ice pupas up skillfully. It actually uses such force to gradually peel off the ice. Not even a strand of hair of the frozen monsters is hurt. It’s easy to see that how good cyan little fox is at controlling its strength.

Liao is amazed at this “fox-shaped ice shaver”. This b.l.o.o.d.y fox usually hides its strength, but it’s actually very reliable.

Ice outside has been peeled off. However, since these monsters were completely frozen, it takes more efforts to wake them up.

Cyan little fox spits out a glowing pearl as big as an ordinary one. Liao is drooling—this is the inner bolus of a nine-tailed fox! It is one of a few monster boluses that can directly benefit cultivators’ personal ability enhancement!

A few wisps of green smoke float out from the inner bolus and drift into the monsters’ noses. Cyan little fox takes out a wisp to send it outside the temple. The fox saves these monsters, and it will also spare a wisp of its essence to save Qin Baojia outside the hall.

Inner boluses of nine-tailed foxes are extraordinary. When the essence of the bolus enters the body, it triggers the vital energy and blood ofthe frozen monster. The hottest thing is actually blood inside people and animals. With vitality inside, it’s easy to defeat ice. A strand of essence of the inner bolus from cyan little fox is a guide.

Both cyan little fox and Liao are very anxious due to serious situation. Lin Luoran has been lacked of physical strength for some time. It seems that she can’t stall Chiyou any longer. Cyan little fox grits its teeth and separates more essence from the bolus, which makes its cyan hair dim. The monsters lying on the ground finally move.

Cyan little fox breathes a sigh of relief and sucks the inner bolus back into its body.

“Where is the crystal? Whom did she give the crystal to?”

These monsters which are just wakened up are still muddled. Liao pushes and scratches them, forcing them to wake up.

These monsters have cultivated their own personal ability for many years, and naturally know some simple tactics of weapon refinement. Green Mountains is also a land with abundant magical restorative and most of them have their own storage s.p.a.ce. As soon as they wake up, they also become aware of the terrible situation. They want to fetch the crystal but only find nothing in the Storage Bag.

Liao and cyan little fox have done so much to wake them up but they didn’t expect this at all. They are all stunned when Baojia outside the temple also wakes up. She struggles to come in, holding on to a stone pillar. Baojia is frowning because of the lingering headache.

Some unclear images flash in her mind, which tell stories about what Lin Luoran has told her before.

What’s more important is that some images are even telling what Lin Luoran doesn’t know. The magnificent underground world under endless desert… the blood-stained stone tablet… and the white light suddenly coming to her mind…

The ocean of consciousness was shattered by brute force. A grain of consciousness seed happened to fall on its edge during the destruction, but it was ignored by the invasive “brute force”.

The seed hid there out of the human nature of avoid being harmed. It was spying on the invasive brute force and waiting for its opportunity.

These two groups of consciousness shared the same ocean of consciousness. However, the seed got some information about the invader, knowing that she was the saintess who wanted to leave the earth. If this continued, the seed of consciousness would gradually grow over time. it was possible for the seed to complement the consciousness of “Qin Baojia”, though it might not be as strong as the invader.

However, at that time, the saintess wanted to kill Lin Luoran. The seed of consciousness was shocked and then tried its best to fight back. It rescued its friends but fell into a deep coma itself.

The purpose of the Yin-Yang-Mote Circle and soul wood under Qingcheng Taoist Temple was to nourish the seed of consciousness and help it root and sprout in the ocean of consciousness, and then bring back “Qin Baojia”. Unfortunately, great changes happened to the earth. The Yin-Yang-Mote Circle could not continue to support and Qin Baojia woke up earlier than expected. She experienced interstellar wandering, and even formed a new conscious personality.

The new conscious personality had suppressed the seed of consciousness. The memory of Qin Baojia seemed to be annihilated in the river of time, until she came to the Green Mountains as Nolan, until…

Baojia is still sorting out some shocking memories when the lark on the other side wakes up.

Liao never expects Lin Luoran to be so bold. She actually gave the lark the real crystal. Thankfully, the clever bird didn’t hide the crystal in the convenient storage s.p.a.ce. It hid the crystal in its belly.

The bird spits out the crystal. The surface of the crystal is still warm. Both cyan little fox and Liao are overjoyed. The altar is intact. If they put the crystal back, things will be much better.

However, cyan little fox still feels creepy about the altar, so it encourages Liao to put the crystal back.

When the crystal is about to return to its original place, Baojia suddenly opens her narrow eyes.

“Wait!”

The pictures in her mind are still very complicated, but Baojia still stops Liao though she is suffering great headache. There is a breath so familiar. It must be the “Jiuli tribe blood” the lark talked about. But what about the other breath that makes her so scared?

Liao is stunned. At this moment, a group of black snow sweeps over and catches the crystal.

Lin Luoran arrives with a pale face. As she shouts “guard the altar”, Liao, closest to the altar, is knocked into the air by “Chiyou” and hits into the stone pillar heavily!
