Chapter 352: Chapter 236: Cultivation World 26_2
The White Jade Spirit Life Weasel has an almost obsessive craving for high-purity spirit food, especially fond of the unripened "Moonlight Rice" and waste pills with residual warmth from the pill furnace.
Within its body exists a dimensional stomach pouch similar to the Demon Refining Pot, which can temporarily store food up to a hundred times its weight. However, the digestion process releases excessive Wood Spirit Qi, forcing it to frequently shuttle back and forth in the spirit field to release energy, forming a cycle of "stealing food-accelerating ripeness-stealing food again".
In the Cultivation Realm, it is also known as the Illusionary Cultivating Spirit Mink, regarded by spirit plant cultivators as both an adversary and ally.
At low levels, it is driven away due to stealing food, but upon reaching the Nascent Soul Stage, it can awaken the "Life and Death Domain", devouring decaying spirit plants and converting them into fertile soil, becoming a revered auspicious beast in major sects.
Its innate divine skill "Ephemeral Splendor" can traverse the entire growth cycle of spirit plants in an instant, but after using it, it needs to consume spiritual crystals equal to its own weight.
This White Jade Spirit Life Weasel has already reached the Late-stage Nascent Soul.
Si Lingle took out spirit honey, and the White Jade Spirit Life Weasel’s eyes lit up.
Jiu Jiu released the White Jade Spirit Life Weasel, and it lunged towards the spirit honey. Si Lingle immediately held it high and said, "Make a contract with me, and you’ll have spirit honey every day."
The White Jade Spirit Life Weasel hurriedly nodded, voluntarily condensing its essence blood. Then, Si Lingle formed a contract with it.
After the contract was made, Si Lingle placed the White Jade Spirit Life Weasel into the Nanometer Farming Bag.
Seven years later, Si Lingle left the Ice Space and went to the next dimension.
This time, it was a Stone Forest Space, with bizarre rocks everywhere.
Before long, Si Lingle encountered a Stone Man.
The Stone Man was formed by a million-year-old Spirit Rock, with joints embedded with molten patterns, and every crevice in the rock flowed with golden veins of earth runes.
Si Lingle was surrounded by arcs of green and purple lightning, the sword’s edge trembling, emitting a low roar like a Thunder Dragon.
With a swing of the sword, the tribulation clouds from the nine heavens gathered, forming a spiraling thunder vortex, with countless lightning bolts striking down towards the Stone Man.
The Stone Man smashed the ground with its fists, causing mountains to crack and lava fountains to erupt from the fissures. Its back protruded six rock pillars, scattering petrification rays like a peacock spreading its tail.
Si Lingle used her movement technique to narrowly dodge, and the peak where she had stood instantly crystallized into a giant quartz monument.
The Stone Man’s abdomen opened, spewing out a vortex of Nether Earth that had devoured thousands of cultivators, corroding sword intent into crumbled stone dust upon contact.
Si Lingle released the Sword Pill, forming a sword array to attack the Stone Man.
At the same time, Si Lingle took out thorny vine seeds, rapidly urging the thorns to grow.
Wood overcomes earth!
As a Wood Spirit Root Cultivator, the thorns were the best thing against the Stone Man.
The thorns quickly grew, swiftly entwining around the Stone Man’s legs.
The Stone Man activated its earth vein assimilation ability, extracting the spiritual energy from mountain ranges within a hundred miles to its core, causing its body to swell to a height of a thousand feet.
Yet, the thorns grew rapidly, winding around the Stone Man’s entire body, slowing its movements.
Si Lingle employed the Longevity Thunder Sword Intent, each sword intent resonating with the earth veins.
This Longevity Sword Intent was something Si Lingle found depicted on a mural in the Ice Space.
Moreover, this sword intent, paired with the Longevity Technique, could transform internalized thunder into spiritual power.
It took Si Lingle five years to master the Longevity Sword Intent.
When the sword intent struck the Stone Man’s left shoulder, cracks appeared on the surface of the rock armor, but liquid metal immediately seeped from the cracks, converting the sword aura’s energy into a defensive light film, reflecting rainbow-colored energy ripples.
Si Lingle swung the sword again, countless sword intents flying towards the Stone Man.
Because the Stone Man was entangled by the vines, it couldn’t evade, and the sword intent transmitted directly to its core. The core shattered instantly, and the Stone Man let out an earth-shattering wail, with its disintegrating body fragments refined by the remaining lightning into Thunder Pattern Xuan Crystals, scattering across the battlefield, forming Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures containing dual attributes of thunder and earth.
Si Lingle collected the Thunder Pattern Xuan Crystals and released the Heavenly Eye to explore this space.
This space had already been visited by Simulation Robot No. 08, a combat robot that had found many good things here.
These included:
Spiritual Stone, a natural mineral containing pure spiritual energy, covered in honeycomb-like spirit patterns, which can be directly absorbed to enhance cultivation. High-level Spiritual Stones can even autonomously inhale and exhale spiritual energy to form small spiritual veins, commonly used by cultivators as a foundation for their abodes.
Thunder Pattern Xuan Crystal, a unique product of the thunderstorm-prone Stone Forest area, has silver lightning patterns across its obsidian base, suitable for forging thunder attribute flying swords.
Dragon Pattern Grass, a purple spirit grass growing among the rocks, with leaf patterns resembling dragon scales. Its roots can secrete acid to dissolve rocks. A thousand-year-old Dragon Pattern Grass can be refined into a "Barrier-breaking Pill", increasing the success rate of breaking through Nascent Soul Stage bottlenecks by thirty percent.
