Chapter 34: You Are a Saint Today! (2)
A mat had been laid on the ground to prevent Xuezhan from getting cold.
Xuezhan lay still and silent.
In truth, she was extremely exhausted. Her soul had shattered into innumerable fragments, after all.
Ji Shi was incredibly sly.
While he taught her the concept of Light and Heavy Water, he deceptively concealed a bug in the cultivation technique.
If Ji Shi were to pass away, she would suffer tremendous injuries as well.
Xuezhan clandestinely shook her head.
This is not the right moment to ponder on such matters! Attempting to open her eyes, she desired to capture every detail around her and cement it in her memory.
It's not just the surroundings, even Bai Lian's countenance appears different.
Although Bai Lian maintains a stoic expression, it's apparent that they perceive it as melancholy.
Xuezhan slowly placed her hands on her chest, closed her eyes, and assumed an air of tranquility.
"To be honest, I don't hate my mother at all."
Suddenly, at that moment, Xuezhan spoke up.
Bai Lian was surprised as she gazed at Xuezhan.
Xuezhan spoke wholeheartedly in a small and soft voice.
"Although this is not what I had imagined, it is the first time I have found a true purpose in life," Xuezhan said.
"I no longer have to aimlessly wander," Xuezhan exclaimed.
"I just need to look ahead and keep moving," Xuezhan declared.
"My birth has a purpose too!" Xuezhan exclaimed.
Bai Lian trembled slightly as she grasped Xuezhan's hand.
A smile spread across Xuezhan's face.
"I may be the only Spirit of Snow in the world, but becoming a human is not so bad after all. At least now I am no longer isolated."
Even if it's only for half a day, it's comforting to have someone in your life who cares enough to mourn your death.
At this moment, she truly resembles a child.
The Snow Spirit Lord is only eight years old!
"That's great."
Xuezhan slowly stretched out her right hand while lying on the ground.
Hold it up high.
As she opened her fingers, her palm faced the sky with scattered stars twinkling.
The night sky is as clear as a Natural Saint, Bai Lian!
Bai Lian considered Xuezhan to be silly and naive.
However, this is the innocence that children should possess.
Don't overthink it, just do it!
Bai Lian tightened his grip on Xuezhan's left hand.
Her gaze tracked Xuezhan's right hand.
She beheld not only the boundless snowfield, but also the future of herself and her master.
"Xuezhan."
Bai Lian's heart felt a tinge of sadness.
Her heart throbbed with great force, not the Innocent Heart of the system, but her very own.
Xuezhan responded, "White Emperor Bai Lian, I believe the title 'Natural Saint' better suits your temperament."
Bai Lian shook her head and said, "I'm neither an Immortal Emperor nor a Natural Saint. I'm just an ordinary person who can't save you."
Xuezhan remarked, "Such is life."
Bai Lian doesn't believe that life is set in stone, "Life can be altered!"
Xuezhan was taken aback.
Saint of nature.
There is a belief that certain Saints of nature have two pupils.
If we can create artificial life, then why can't we create an artificial Saint?
Xuezhan has made a decision.
She closed her eyes once more and slowly retracted her right hand, finally stopping it in front of Bai Lian.
Open.
A white light was emitted.
Before Bai Lian stood a crystal-clear eye, resembling a snowflake crystal ball.
That is the Qianhuan Real Eye!
Xuezhan's right eye was empty.
She said, "Bai Lian, I cannot control this eye. As an Immortal Emperor, perhaps you have the power to tame it. Besides, I am not going to live much longer, so I am giving it to you."
Bai Lian shook her head immediately and said, "I don't need it."
Xuezhan said, "Bai Lian, if you don't accept it, I will be heartbroken. I have nothing else to offer you."
Bai Lian clenched her teeth and replied, "The Immortal Spirit Stone is sufficient."
"That's the incentive for the transaction, it's not the same thing."
This is my way of showing appreciation for making me laugh, even in times of distress.
Xuezhan spoke in a firm tone.
Bai Lian gave a nod.
She took the Qianhuan Real Eye from Xuezhan without saying a word.
In that moment, a change appeared.
As soon as Bai Lian touched the eye, it shattered into countless snowflake-like crystals.
It engulfed Bai Lian like a storm.
It was beautiful.
Like a tree covered in ice crystals.
Both the turtle and Xuezhan looked at the scene in dismay, which was a spectacle that Qianhuan Real Eye had never revealed before.
It surrendered and slowly merged into Bai Lian's body.
Bai Lian's body appeared to be covered in ice and snow.
Ice flesh and snow bone.
Long hair as white as snow, eyebrows dusted with snow, and snowflakes covering the eyes.
Activate the Qianhuan Real Eye!
Bai Lian's body slowly rose into the air.
In that instant, she resembled the Snow Empress!
The frigid air surrounding her body congealed into a beam of light, resembling a sharp blade, surging upward into the infinite darkness of the night sky.
As the clouds dissipated, the brilliant moonlight bathed Xuezhan in a natural glow.
"How beautiful it is…"
Xuezhan unexpectedly began flailing her arms.
"Bai Lian, I can't see a thing!"
In this manner, her voice was mixed with a sob.
That's incorrect.
It's evident that she hasn't fully visualized Bai Lian's posture in her mind.
This is not supposed to happen.
"I can't see a thing!"
Xuezhan fought to stand up, but how could she possess such strength?
"Xuezhan!"
Bai Lian hastily fell to the ground and picked up Xuezhan, holding her hand firmly.
"I'm here, I'm here."
Xuezhan couldn't calm down.
"But I can't see anything. I'm completely blind."
Tears began to well up.
Even with Bai Lian holding her in her arms, she still couldn't see.
She thought she could leave with a smile, but she found herself unable to see.
"I'll restore your sight."
Bai Lian was eager to close her eyes.
The turtle immediately halted Bai Lian, "It's futile, and it could harm you."
"What do you suggest I do?" Bai Lian asked.
The turtle remained silent.
Bai Lian looked up.
Should I go find Shifu?
It's too late now.
And now Shifu is also bedridden due to illness.
She could only blankly rummage through her storage pendant.
Medical pills, medicinal materials, flying swords, and materials for refining weapons…
She took them out one by one and placed them all over the floor.
This is useless. It's all worthless.
Even Medical Pills, which can restore the soul, are useless to Xuezhan currently.
What can I do?
Bai Lian gazed downwards at the ground.
As she is neither an Immortal Emperor nor a Natural Saint, she currently feels powerless.
Xuezhan ceased shouting, yet her body continued to tremble.
What actions should I take?
Suddenly, the turtle's paw extended in front of Bai Lian.
Resting on the paw was a metal box containing a piece of green wood.
If her memory serves her well, this is what she discovered on Ji Shi's corpse.
The turtle spoke, "This is Ruomu. You can utilize it to reconstruct Miss Xuezhan's physique."
Bai Lian's eyes suddenly brightened up.
"Please instruct me on how to do it!"
The turtle nodded vigorously.
Suddenly, a glimmer of hope appeared.
For the first time, Bai Lian felt that the glacier was not all cold and contained some warmth.
