Login with GoogleChapter 26: Of Master's and Their Filial Disciples (2)
Bai Lian was engrossed in a book.
She is indeed worthy of being my disciple - earnest and eager in her pursuit of knowledge!
An Lan found no sign of injury on Bai Lian's person.
As she is not injured, there is no need for me to be concerned about her well-being.
"Despite the arduous process, the outcome was favorable!"
Under normal circumstances, An Lan would not have traveled all the way to the Snow Sea to find Bai Lian.
After all, she was quite occupied with sleeping!
She did this thing out of guilt this time, and there is no other reason.
Why is she saying that?
Before leaving, Bai Lian promised her in the library that she would help her find Immortal Spirit Qi to heal her wounds.
If she hadn't pretended to be injured, Bai Lian wouldn't have gone out, and if Bai Lian hadn't gone out, she wouldn't have been in danger.
This is obviously related to her, and she won't ignore it.
An Lan was observing closely!
But she still felt slightly uncomfortable.
While Bai Lian was in the warm house, she was freezing in the snow.
Damn.
You are a rebellious disciple. You must be filial to your master in the future, or I will be angry!
An Lan clenched her fist tightly.
An Lan was admiring the snow-covered scenery.
The turtle was also gazing out at the bamboo forest.
The moon illuminated the undulating coastline.
The turtle held its head so high that it frightened a pack of passing wolves, causing them to flee.
"Is it better if I keep a low profile?"
Upon contemplating this, the turtle retracted its head.
It desired to follow An Lan inside to observe what occurred, but its size rendered it incapable.
If it were to hastily enter the forest, it would inevitably shatter the magic array and draw attention to itself from those within.
It's preferable to maintain a low profile.
It consumed a nearby island in one gulp, later swam to its original location, and camouflaged itself to look like the island it had consumed.
It is proficient in this activity/task.
As long as it keeps its head hidden, even a Transmigration Stage cultivator in close proximity will not detect any anomaly.
After all, it's only a turtle.
The night grew darker.
It's almost morning.
A day passes and a new one begins.
Finally, the silent bamboo forest was broken by a new sound.
As Bai Lian put the book away, she felt a familiar atmosphere.
The gloomy young woman and the expressionless Ji Shi emerged from the stone path.
By the way, an old woman who appeared to be sixty years old was following them.
"It is ready."
The young woman spoke as soon as she entered the room.
Ji Shi smiled and said, "Fairy Bai Lian, please come with me."
He appeared to be lost in thoughts.
"Where are we going?" Bai Lian inquired.
"We're heading to the sea. It's easier to use the astrolabe for navigation there," he explained.
"Alright."
Bai Lian was surrounded by four people and couldn't utter a single word.
She walked alongside the young woman.
"What should I call you?"
The young woman replied, "You can call me Snow Spirit Lord."
Bai Lian nodded, and her gaze fell on the old woman who had just appeared.
The Snow Spirit Lord said, "Similar to the Snow Spirit Lord who appeared in front of you, she is also under my control."
Bai Lian understood the situation.
It seems this is the person who used the Modeling Heaven and Earth skill!
The power of Wuheng Snow Valley is really impressive; had they possessed an immortal weapon, they would have already conquered the entire Snow Sea.
With this in mind, Bai Lian became even more curious about the extent of Tong Yao's power after she becomes the "Empress". In the game, she single-handedly defeated the Wuheng Snow Valley, forcing them to flee to the East Divine Land.
Bai Lian effortlessly strolled through the bamboo forest with Ji Shi leading the way.
The valley was narrow and nestled between two peaks.
After traveling eastward for tens of miles, the mountains gradually faded away and the snow slowly melted.
Under the cover of the dark night, the waves crashed fervently against the towering cliff.
Bai Lian gazed into the distance and spotted an island with sparse vegetation.
"That's where we're heading," stated the Snow Spirit Lord, indicating their destination.
Bai Lian sensed no fluctuation of spirit Qi on the island.
Did they not leave anything beforehand?
It seems that the confrontation between the Snow Spirit Lord and Ji Shi was rushed.
She became increasingly curious.
At first, the two people were very calm, but when Hades Hall attacked them, they seemed to lose their composure and were unable to remain as composed as before.
Breaking the silence, the Snow Spirit Lord spoke, "Fairy Bai Lian, please rest here for now. I'll call you when everything is ready."
Bai Lian remained silent.
The Snow Spirit Lord escorted the old woman and Ji Shi to the island, leaving behind only the "Snow Spirit Lord puppet" to keep an eye on Bai Lian at the shore.
Are you afraid that I will escape?
Bai Lian shook her head discreetly.
How dare she attempt to run away in front of them when she is just a rookie at the Soul Changing Stage?
She took a seat on a stone pillar.
Beneath the moonlight, the Snow Spirit Lord and Ji Shi continued to sprinkle various materials on the island.
Bai Lian could discern that it was a magic array.
The core of that magic array was a special Spirit Tool that resembled the Space-time Compass An Lan had given her.
Approximately 30 minutes later, the voice of the Snow Spirit Lord was heard.
New task options emerged in front of Bai Lian.
[Task 1: Turn around and flee (Reward: Hard Skill+12)]
[Task 2: Confess right away that you are not the reincarnation of any Star Lord (Reward: World Wood)]
[Task 3: There's no going back, just move forward! (Reward: Fu Zhu Special Effect)] (Note: Fu Zhu is a mythical creature from Chinese folklore. It resembles a deer with four horns.)
Bai Lian was speechless.
She intended to choose the easiest one.
So, Task 3 is the easiest one. But, what on earth is the reward?
What is the Fu Zhu Special Effect?
The Mountain and Sea Scriptures state that there exists a creature resembling a white deer with four horns, known as Fu Zhu. Its appearance signifies an imminent Flood.
Fu Zhu is the omen of flood.
Damn it!
It's a Special Effect!
Bai Lian already has three Special Effects, and the Water Spirit Special Effect has caused the least damage to her so far.
The Tao Halo Special Effect makes everyone believe that she is truly a Natural Saint, while the Yaoguang Special Effect portrays her as the reincarnation of a Star Lord.
What will this new Special Effect bring for me…
Bai Lian felt that her future was only gloomy.
But.
She didn't dare to choose other tasks.
Bai Lian's lips trembled as she was left with no choice but to choose Task 3.
Within moments, a new Special Effect was added to her character panel.
System, you are incredibly ruthless!
Bai Lian followed the Snow Spirit Lord blankly and eventually reached the island.
The moment of truth has arrived.
When Bai Lian fell onto the solid ground, she maintained a dignified demeanor.
In that moment, the 100,000-year-old turtle, who had curled up into a ball and concealed its presence, was completely taken aback!
That That That That That That…
Isn't that the person whose body is covered in words associated with "Death"?
At that moment, it believed that the phrase "covered in words of death" was merely an exaggeration. Perhaps she was only surrounded by a few "Death" words.
It was wrong.
This person is like walking around with a suit of armor made entirely of "Death" words!
