Chapter 233: Chapter 51 Giant Spirit Snake Armor_4
Yi Yi was opposed to Yuan Ping’s suggestion and quickly retorted, "No, no, that won’t do! The Sect Leader explicitly said that this is a compensation gift. If everyone gets the same, doesn’t that mean my injury was in vain?"
Yuan Ping made that claim earlier to negotiate more benefits for Yi Yi. Hearing Yi Yi’s reaction, he said with a smile, "That depends on your Uncle Ah Dai. After all, he and Grandmaster obtained this giant snake together, and the Sect Leader would surely give some weight to his opinion."
Ah Dai mumbled, "I... I don’t know what to do either!"
Yuan Ping secretly gave Yi Yi a signal behind Ah Dai’s back. Tricky as she was, Yi Yi nodded, hurriedly saying, "Well, I want a complete set of light armour. That should count as your compensation, Uncle."
Ah Dai looked stunned and just nodded, agreeing "Alright then."
Yuan Ping smiled subtly, and asked, "Little brother, do you have a method to separate this snake skin? I really want to learn about it."
Ah Dai scratched his head and responded, "I’m not sure if I can do it, but I can certainly try."
Yuan Ping pulled out a piece of snake skin about nine square meters, and said, "Let me sketch out the measurements first, then you can cut it." She quickly traced out a white pattern on the snake skin, shaping out a set of clothing, even including a jacket and trouser, as well as numerous tiny dots at the points of connection.
Clapping her hands, Yi Yi praised, "Auntie, you’re so good at designing! You must teach me one day."
Yuan Ping sarcastically retorted, "This isn’t the first time you’ve wanted to learn tailoring, but you’re so mischievous, you can never concentrate on it. For the sake of my poor fabric, let’s forget it. Ah Dai, you just need to cut the snake skin along these white lines that I’ve drawn. Then make holes in those connecting points, and I’ll stitch them together with silver thread later."
Ah Dai kneeled down on the ground, focussing intently on the white lines on the snake skin while others; Yuan Ping, Lu Ping, Yi Yi, and Yan Shi watched Ah Dai closely, curious about how he would separate this tough snake skin.
Having battled with the Giant Spirit Snake, Ah Dai knew the toughness of its skin. He concentrated his energy, the silver figure in his Dantian glowed brightly, vast energy gathering quickly in his palm under his control. A yellow light radiated out of his palm, transforming into a yellow crystal scissor containing huge energy. This was the first time Ah Dai had used his True Qi to take the form of scissors so successfully. In complete awe, everyone watched as Ah Dai used energy scissors to cut the tough snake skin with his right hand, while holding it with his left hand. Although cutting the tough snake skin was somewhat strenuous, Ah Dai, who had reached the eighth realm of the Life Creation energy technique, managed to handle it smoothly. In no time, the snake skin was cut into clothing pieces under the effect of the energy scissors, and Ah Dai transformed the energy scissors into an awl to quickly make tiny holes on the connecting points Yuan Ping drew, finishing the cutting job in a jiffy.
Everyone was stunned and silence fell over the room. Ah Dai stood up, satisfied with his work, and smiled at Yuan Ping, "Sister, does this look alright?"
Yuan Ping asked in confusion, "What... What kind of technique is that? How can fighting Qi be transformed?"
Ah Dai scratched his head and said, "Master said it’s called Life Creation."
Yi Yi exclaimed, "Uncle, teach me this skill, it seems fun!"
Ah Dai thought for a second before agreeing, "Sure! But which level have you reached in your Life Creation technique?"
Sticking her tongue out, Yi Yi responded, "The second level. Why?" To be honest, it was because of her good talent that she was able to reach the second level. Similar to Xuan Yue, she mostly spent her time playing, hardly ever practicing seriously.
Ah Dai said, "You can’t learn it yet then. Life Creation transformation is based on Life Creation True Qi, and you must reach at least the sixth level before you can learn it."
Yuan Ping and Lu Ping glanced at each other. One of them had reached the fifth level, while the other was only on the fourth. They were surprised that their junior, a young boy, had already reached above the sixth level. They wondered how he achieved it at such a young age.
Yi Yi lost her enthusiasm, "What? The sixth level? It’s going to be years before I reach that! Maybe I should give up."
Sighing, Yuan Ping said, "Little brother, since you can cut the snake skin, why don’t you work on the rest for me?" There were many disciples in the fourth generation, and she conveniently had all their measurements. Why wouldn’t she utilize this free labor that was Ah Dai?
Yan Shi picked up one of the snake skin scraps, gave it a yank, and said, "This really is good stuff. It’s not only hard, but also resilient, and super elastic. Big sister, could you make us brothers some vests?"
Yuan Ping replied with a smile, "Of course! You’re all Ah Dai’s good friends. Without him, these clothes wouldn’t have been possible. I’ll take the initiative and have vests made for each of you." No one would object to her giving away vests made from the snake skins as they belonged to either the Sword Saint of the Tian Gang or Ah Dai in the first place.
