Chapter 15 - Fourth Spirit (2/2)
”Well thank you for that Sister Bing, and you can also call me Brother San just like how Brother Daydream calls me….Oh, I almost forgot I have another Spirit Bone which I got on the way here but that's only for my left arm and it was similar to your Torso Bone”
'That means it was from one of my clansmen I'm not sure what happened but let me see it'
He took out the Ice Jade Scorpion Left Arm Bone form his 24 Moonlight Bridges and let Sister Bing observe the Bone. After observing it for a while she was shocked, it was an ability which was rarely found in her clan, the Ice Explosion.
'San, absorb this bone right now. This is an extremely strong ability which is found in my clan and if I had it I would have ruled the entire north. It's called Ice Explosion and can only be used by those who have Ultimate Ice'
”I understand, I'll do it right now”
Though it was a hundred thousand year old bone with the help of Jade Empress it's ability had still increased a great amount and also absorbing it was still painful but compared to absorbing a million year old bone it was much easier. He again asked Jade Empress to not help him so it was extremely painful.
After he was done absorbing the spirit bone he changed his clothes and was ready to search out the second rings for his Blue Silver Grass and Samsara Eye. He decided to search for anything here before he went to Star Dou Forest as he would not come here many times in the future due to how far it was.
He also got a second ability from the Left Spirit Bone which was called Ice Assist. It was a passive skill and let him use any ice type abilities along with a decrease in Spirit power required for any ice type ability.
He then sat down and took out the third and last spirit bone he had, which was the Golden Trident External Spirit Bone. It was connected to his Skull and was a million-year-old bone. He didn't hesitate anymore and started to absorb the spirit bone. It was in the form of a golden trident, it would detach from him whenever he wanted, it was nearly 6 -7 feet tall and was a little out of proportion to his body.
The size could be adjusted and had no special abilities apart from fusing with an actual trident and making that as his Spirit Bone. It had a regenerating property and if destroyed would be reformed in a single day.
He knew that the best thing to do was to fuse it with the Sea God's Trident in the future and making it a part of his Divine Armament. In the actual novel the Trident was not a part of his armament and was only his weapon but with this, he could actually make it his armament.
He decided to use the 100.000-year boost to the man faced demon spider in the Star Dou Forest and obtain the Eight Spider Lances External Bone. But he still searched this place once to see if any suitable spirit beast was present.
While he was using Ghost Shadow Perplexing Step to look for Spirit Beasts, Daydream and Jade Empress suddenly told him to go towards a tall mountain. He didn't know why they were tensed but he went towards the mountain in a serious mood.
'There is no doubt about it, this aura belongs to her, the Ice Empress'
He heard Daydreams voice in his head, he heard rumors from the people near the Far Northern Plains about the ruler of the North, Heavenly Snow Woman also known as the Ice Empress.
”What exactly is this??”
'It looks like she tried to forcefully tried to transform into a human but….failed'
When Jade Empress spoke she had a solemn mood and spoke in low voice. He could see that she was extremely depressed about this matter, he wanted to console her so he asked,
”Did you know each other??”
But he got no reply, he went towards the crystal and saw that there was still a little life force left and when he went towards the ice cocoon he saw a few frozen bodies there. He understood that they were bodies of people from the Star Luo Empire, they had the logo of the Royal guards on them so they had come here on an expedition to target this cocoon.
When he went back and examined the crystal he saw that there was still a little life force left in it, he understood that they probably wanted to capture this and obtain a hundred thousand year ring or….. a second martial spirit.
He knew that they wanted to seal her memories and use her for either of those processes.
”There still might be a way to save her….”
When he said that Jade Empress was completely alert, his method was not only risky but may even be harmful.
”We can still use the same process we used for you and make her a conscious ring and bound her to the Ice Jade Empress Scorpion as my second spirit ring. I can't see another way…..”
'What Brother San said was true this might be the only way to save her, we'll leave the decision in your hands'
'…..Let's do it'
