Lady Lin's First-ever Journey to Immortality

Chapter 339 Bearing Essence (I)

Sometimes the proud and playful fire phoenix is unreliable, but as an experienced monster, it always knows a good way out.

This can be demonstrated by helping her escape from danger many times, or offering some guidance for her occasionally.

So, this time, Lin Luoran also believes in what it says.

She’s just a little confused. Is it really taking a drastic measure to deal with this situation?

The monster wolf looks inside from the mountain wall which is one-way transparent. It is the first who discovers that Lin Luoran has disappeared. There is only one bead floating in the closet and emitting misty white light, which is mixed with the green light from snow lotus.

The monster wolf’s heart hitches. It is kind of knowledgeable. A bead which allows a living person to hide in is usually extraordinary... It has a plan in mind, so it stops watching and triggers the magic circle.

In the closet, the brilliant light starts to flow and intertwine. This kind of light will restore things to the original Reiki of Five Elements. It’s Reiki Melting Circle. The monster wolf has “melted” a lot of things over the years, including living creatures and things without life. Otherwise the green light snow lotus will not be overflowing with splendid Wood Reiki.

Only the green light snow lotus can save it... The monster wolf’s eyes glow with inexplicable light.

It has to survive so that it can activate the transmission circle again to take revenge. The human female cultivator who it trapped this time almost has the personal ability of Bearing Essence. Thinking of this, the monster wolf is so grateful for its good luck from the bottom of its heart.

There are few cultivators in these years. Inanimate objects can’t be compared to cultivators, let alone a female cultivator who is about to bear Essence. The strong scent of Wood Wakan from her body really intoxicates it... It is a pity that she is not purely of the Wood. It’s such a waste!

The monster wolf is blinded by lust. It knows cultivators are scarce and Lin Luoran is not a female cultivator with single Taoist root. However, it neglects something. Under the condition that the Reiki on the earth is thin and unstable, this female cultivator with no advantageous Taoist root can still make herself near Bearing Essence. She is certainly a dangerous character.

In the flying light, the monster wolf finds the female cultivator suddenly appears in the closet.

She wears a magical shield and a magic dress which has been proved insignificant as dual protection. The monster wolf still smiles happily. Reiki Melting Circle is invincible and can melt everything. Even his circle is simple and crude, a female cultivator who has not borne Essence cannot survive from it.

The protection of magical shield and magic dress can only make her live a little longer.

Even if she hides in the mysterious bead, the bead will also be melted eventually. It is a complete waste of the precious bead. The monster wolf sighs regretfully again.

The monster wolf is a little bit sentimental today. And then it sees something unbelievable:

That female cultivator is actually trying to pick the green light snow lotus—it is so ridiculous! Does she think it has provided no protection for such an important thing?

Out of morbid curiosity, the monster wolf decides to have a good laugh at her quietly on this side of the stone wall.

Well, it must because that it can do nothing but eating and sleeping in the Snow Mountains. Without a female monster wolf like who can read its mind, its life is so boring.

The monster wolf persuades itself very quickly. And then it sees that the female cultivator being ricocheted off the magical shield around green light snow lotus and knocked on the mountain wall badly. The monster wolf laughs gloatingly.

Covered with white dust, the female cultivator stands up. The delightful laughter of the monster wolf goes through the cave and resounds through the whole valley.

Then she chooses to deal with the magical shield around the snow lotus with the Water spell. It makes monster wolf almost can’t help laughing again.

Therefore, the human race is obviously the stupidest race. Using the Water to handle the Wood can only promote the vitality of the Wood. Because Lin Luoran is too “stupid”, the monster wolf finally can’t stand her anymore. It runs out of the cave with a great laugh.

Lin Luoran wipes away her inexistent sweat and returns to the space.

“Does it go far away?”

The fire phoenix nods. Lin Luoran stares at the flashing flames with a fanaticism in her eyes. In fact, she is essentially an avid gambler. In times of crisis, she is used to fighting others, struggling against destiny, and defending her life.

The Reiki Melting Circle is rotating slowly. Lin Luoran has known how strong the power of circle since long ago. There is limited time left for her. And if she really breaks the magical shield around the lotus as planned, the monster wolf will come to take her head instantly.

There is only one chance and she needs to jump at it.

Lin Luoran flashes out of the space. There is not any sunshine in the closet. However, where there is hellfire, there is Fire Reiki.

She closes her eyes and meditates. She decides her last blow is the “Arrow of Light”.

It is probably right to use fire against wood.

Lin Luoran uses her right hand to knit print at great speed. Quickly and accurately, she makes complicated and fancy Taoist hand gestures one by one. After she first practiced the Spells of the Five Elements, the greater her personal ability is, the more skillful she is at casting her spell. To be honest, she does not care so much about every step of the Taoist hand gesture for a long time. However, now she is as careful as a novice.

Because this is the pinch of the game....

...

The monster wolf jumps out of the cave. Seeing how empty the valley is, it is not angry.

Those prairie wolves are from the same clan as its family. However, for superior monster wolf nationality, those idiots without wisdom have very little in common with it, Master Monster Wolf.

Didn’t these wolves live this way before they met the Master Monster Wolf? In the winter, they curled up in caves to escape the harsh wind and snow. When hunger became unbearable, they went out to look for food in the snow. Occasionally, they met other animals that also came out for food, and then they could have a nice meal.

What the monster wolf is angry about is that after so many years of training, these prairie wolves are still intuitive and do not listen to its command at all.

It digs through some vines on the mountain wall and a cave appears.

Although there is a snow-capped mountain above, this place is as balmy as spring due to subterranean heat. An oil lamp refined from animal fat is even burning bright inside. There is also a two-meter-wide pool in the cave with hot water vapors. It’s an incredibly comfortable and natural hot spring at about forty degrees.

The cave is covered with soft dry grass, clean and bright. As for the hot spring, only Master Monster Wolf can enjoy it at ordinary times.

But now a twelve-year-old human girl is immersed in the spring. The monster wolf smacks her head with its paw to wake up the little girl.

Seeing the enlarging wolf face in front of her, Ze Yitong cries, “It’s you again, monster！ You give me back my hand!”

The monster wolf grits its teeth, “I have told you I didn’t bit your hand. Stop crying or I will tear you apart with my claws.”

Well, it really hates those stupid prairie wolves when they don’t understand orders. It’s just catching people. Catching people alive is funny. However, they have to bite off her arm. Now whenever this human girl wakes up, she can’t stop crying.

It has put a lot of herbs in this hot spring. She should not hurt anymore. What is she crying for?

It can never know the reason as a monster wolf which has been away from the mortal world for long. A girl at Ze Yitong’s age starts to implicitly like dressing up. It’s the age that people will be very happy just because of a new dress or a new cap. How can she bare to live with a broken hand?

She will always be like this in the future, with only one hand. How can she pull on the reins? She can neither ride horses nor help her family work. Classmates will laugh at her in school. All kinds of pressure are on a little girl. Considering of these things, Ze Yitong becomes sadder so she cries whenever the monster wolf wakes her up.

“Hoooooo...” Being threatened by the monster wolf, Ze Yitong represses her crying. This kind of weeping is more touching than crying loudly for a man, perhaps also for a wolf?

The monster wolf is agitated. It says fiercely, “Your sister is looking for you and she will be eaten by me in a while!”

Ze Yitong’s nose twitches, “Ajia is here? Don’t eat her please! Don’t eat her! I won’t ask you to give my hand back anymore. ”

The monster wolf turns its big face away. When does it promise it will give her hand back to her? It doesn’t have any magical thing that can make her hand grow back, however, it tries to distract this little human girl. Why does she cry even more loudly?

The monster wolf is really depressed. But it never knows: killing one’s sister is really not a good topic for distraction—

It is about to say something. However, it suddenly notices unusual fluctuations in the closet.

To make her pass out, the monster wolf smacks Ze Yitong again. It flies into the mountain quickly. Between breaths, it has been outside the closet.

Looking across the one-way transparent mountain wall, it sees Lin Luoran holding a bow in her left hand and an arrow in her right hand. The fiery arrow is gorgeous, aiming at the green light snow lotus.

Damn it. The monster wolf happens to know this spell.

It has actually seen that a little human cultivator of Bearing Essence shotted a monster bull dead in this way. At that time, it did not have the capacity to humanize. In the entire monster wolf nationality, it was just a little baby.

It remembers that when its father found the arrow in the grass, he looked at the totally dead monster bull and said the three words, “Arrow of Light”.

The monster wolf doesn’t expect that it can see this spell again in its lifetime. For revenge, the monster bull nationality has killed all human cultivators who have this secret ability—when it is focusing on thinking for several seconds, the arrow in Lin Luoran’s hand has been shotted out.

Blocked by mountains and surrounded by the magic circle, the arrow shotted by Lin Luoran certainly fails to draw down the power of the sun. However, her arrow has brought the Strange Fire from the space here.

The monster wolf sees clearly that the arrow shots on the magical shield around the green light snow lotus; then there is a sizzling noise.

It can’t wait to tear Lin Luoran apart, but it takes time to stop the magic circle inside. Besides, how can it know this is not a trick of the human female cultivator?

It remembers these human cultivators are so scheming so it should always be on the alert. The monster wolf needs to protect green light snow lotus. In the meantime, it needs to make sure that this human female cultivator won’t act as a host.

In an instant, the wolf goes into the mountain and appears in the cave where Ze Yitong is.

It hangs the little girl from the hot spring in its mouth and then comes back the outside of the closet again.

There is only a thin layer of magical shield around the lotus now, and the light in the closet has stopped flying. The monster wolf stops the Reiki Melting Circle.

It appears in the closet and puts Ze Yitong under its claws. It can kill her whenever it wants.

“Little cultivator, stop your rude actions which offend the dignity of the monster wolf nationality. Otherwise, I will kill her!”

Lin Luoran stares at it, and she is definitely sure that there must be something wrong with the monster’s brain. If not, how can it be so naive in speaking and doing things?

Arrow of Light is melting the magical shield around this snow lotus little by little, one inch, half... there is a hole in the shield.

The monster wolf whispers something. It doesn’t skill Ze Yitong as it said, but it chooses to use the last art of nature it knows.

Mountains tremble, and then a giant in stone armor rises from the ground.

The giant opens its big hand and grabs Lin Luoran by her waist. When Lin Luoran is about to be lifted off the ground, she reaches out and picks the green light snow lotus.

The monster wolf is in exasperation, “Put down my snow lotus!”

Lin Luoran doesn’t respond, so the wolf moves its hands and then the giant in stone armor closes its hands violently.

Lin Luoran sneers at the monster wolf, and then she disappears, vanihing in the bead. The stone armor giant gets the bead. It tries to pinch and crush the bead but it still can’t destroy it... The monster wolf is so angry that it almost dies of vomiting blood.

Seeing the empty stone trough and the translucent mucus still rolling, monster wolf knows its hard work for so many years has vanished in front of itself. At this moment, if its father is here, the wolf can still savagely tear it. Let alone Ze Yitong, a strange human girl.

“It’s all your sister’s fault... Blame your sister... It’s her... It’s her... Ah...........”

This monster wolf is even weirder after it is jarred. The stone armor giant summoned by its art of nature falls apart because of its unstable spiritual mind. It falls to the ground and becomes a pile of broken stones.

With a claw, it is about to kill Ze Yitong in a coma. At this moment, there is a light rope from the bead that falls to the ground. It binds the monster wolf tightly.

Before it realizes what is going on, it has already been dragged by the light rope and pulls into the bead.

A scream is so loudly that White Cloud, standing on the top of the snow-capped mountain, also shivers.

...

Except Lin Luoran, all living creatures cannot enter or leave the space.

In fact, this is not totally true. There is another possibility. As monster wolf now, its flesh and blood have been melted by the power of the space law, and its soul and body have been separated.

Lin Luoran hears the piercing shriek, and she can’t help frowning. She catches fire phoenix which is covering its ears and about to leave, “You only say that if I pick the snow lotus and plant it here, the monster wolf will be dead immediately... you didn’t mention it will die in this cruel way! ”

Fire phoenix deceives itself, “How can I know it will scream in this bloodcurdling way? It really sounds cruel.”

Silver fish and it are here in the sacred pearl space after death. They become half soul and half spirit. It’s really cruel to bring a monster alive here.

As long as she plants the green light snow lotus here, the monster wolf will die immediately. Lin Luoran looks at the shadow of the screaming “monster wolf”, which is constantly solidified. She suddenly realizes something important.

Fire phoenix is an aboriginal here, so it can’t help as a precedent. However, the silver fish is not.

How did the silver fish come to the space?

Lin Luoran remembers that she first picked the “Ice Grass” guarded by the silver fish. Because of her enlightenment of the Water, she then waked up in space with a groggy head. At that time, the silver fish must have been in the space but she didn’t know yet.

Maybe the silver fish was also taken in by space in this way? Lin Luoran suddenly feels nausea. Separating one’s soul and body alive is a hundred times crueler than killing him directly. It is certainly not her way of doing things.

Fire phoenix knows what she is thinking as soon as it sees her sour look.

Everything is different now. She will gather three of Five Elements soon, so she can already know something about the space. It’s better to do her a favor.

Thinking about it, fire phoenix raises its voice, “Little girl, do you think this bead is a wicked object that can absorb a soul?”

Lin Luoran nods. Probably it’s not absorbing soul. What terrible is tearing a soul alive from a body.

Fire phoenix drags its long tail and makes two turns around the swing. “The heaven and the earth have Five Elements which are indispensable. The space is basically the same. Think carefully about what is planted next to the tiny pond, and then think about the silver fish and me. You will understand it. ”

What is planted by the tiny pond? Flame fruit and ice grass? Oh, there is also a new one, green light snow lotus. To be exact, fire phoenix says it is called “Green Light Flower” now.

Fire, water, and wood... they totally correspond with the elements of fire phoenix, silver fish, and the screaming and shaping monster wolf?

Now Lin Luoran is thinking so hard that she can not manage to care about whether this method is cruel or not. It can’t be so simple. Only with the connection of years of guardianship, you can take monsters’ souls here? It’s really a good deal of buying one and getting one free. The former owner of this sacred pearl took the bead to steal the spirit herbs of beast cultivators, and even caught them here... There should be other restrictions, such as the blood that the monster wolf spitting on the green light flower?

Is it because of blood? Lin Luoran frowns and thinks carefully. Maybe she also needs to take personal ability into consideration.

Otherwise, if she lived in ancient times and owned the bead, she would be invincible as long as she got spirit herbs with the monsters’ blood.

Fire phoenix doesn’t bother her and only let her think by herself.

On the other side, the breath of the monster wolf which has been screaming for a long time is extremely weak now. It scatters and then becomes half soul and half spirit totally.

The newly born soul of departed is extremely fragile. As soon as the monster wolf opens its eyes, it is stunned by all the things in front. Not knowing what happens to its body, it still wants to tear Lin Luoran who is now in contemplation. However, fire phoenix grabs it tail first.

“Freshman wolf, hasn’t anyone taught you that newcomers have to report measurements and send dirty pictures?”

The monster wolf apparently doesn’t understand fire phoenix’s playful words. The Wood and the Fire repel each other. The wolf doesn’t know it has become a soul of departed. Finding that it is caught by a giant bird full of fire, it is scared out of its wits.

...

With a flash in the closet, Lin Luoran is thrown out of space.

Fortunately, Lin Luoran is keen of eye and swift of movement. She quickly grasped the paper and pen before being thrown out. With fire phoenix’s reminder, she has already clarified some rules of the space. Because monster wolf is there, the space needs to change again. She cannot stay in the space temporarily so she just comes out.

Looking at Ze Yitong who is still in a coma, Lin Luoran writes on the paper that she has found Ze Yitong but they can’t go back to the grassland for the moment. She also tells Dun Zhu and others no need not be concerned about them. Lin Luoran flies to the top of the Snow Mountains, tying the note around White Cloud’s neck.

She whispers a few words in White Cloud’s ear. Then it leaps down the mountain with the note and runs towards the vast grassland.

Lin Luoran cleans up Ze Yitong’s wound, waiting for the little girl to wake up quietly.

Broken arm is not incurable but fire phoenix said her personal ability is not enough to do it. To refine the spirit medicine, she had to have the personal ability of at least Bearing Essence.

Now Bearing Essence has become the most important issue for Lin Luoran.

Only by Bearing Essence, can she make Ze Yitong’s lost arm regrow, and have the power to get to Mount Penglai.

She still has half a year.
