Vol 3 Chapter 64: The Frozen Beauty Cultivator
Afterward, Lin Jing returned to his cave dwelling.
The extra reward from Senior Sister was indeed tempting, but she was right—given his current strength, trying to experience the Demon Emperor’s power was nothing but wishful thinking. It would be better to wait until his cultivation improved.
"All the spirit stones go to Gu Qianqiu for cultivation. With such an imnse quantity of spirit stones, even a pig could cultivate to the Demon Emperor level. But a Longevity Body can’t be asured by normal standards, and ti is still too short… I need to supplent this with other thods."
"All the spiritual plants and herbs—I'll use them to help the Pine Leaf Mouse cultivate the Everlasting Emperor’s Longevity Art to perfection."
"As for the remaining monster cores… I'll use them for alchemy! Every last one goes to Gu Qianqiu."
Among the countless types of pills, there were two mainstream categories:
Pills that increase cultivation.
Pills that assist in breakthroughs.
One such cultivation-enhancing pill could be refined solely using monster cores.
"The problem is, their effects are terrible. A pill refined from a Demon Core Stage monster, after purifying the impurities, might not even be enough to push a Foundation Establishnt cultivator up a minor realm."
"For a Longevity Body or a Golden Core cultivator, it's even worse—practically useless."
"Luckily, Gu Qianqiu looted enough monster cores, and their quality is decent."
"But making Dragon Carp refine this much would be too exhausting… I'll have to borrow Senior Sister’s ‘Crane Cauldron Alchemy Division’ to do it for . I'm such a good Beast Tar."
"Still, compared to these diocre cultivation pills, what I truly look forward to is the Fire Dragon Alchemist refining pills with the ‘Myriad Flas Cauldron’. Turning living creatures into pills will undoubtedly be far more effective—perhaps a single one will be worth hundreds of normal cultivation pills!"
The only issue was that Dragon Carp wouldn’t be able to use its Monster Core Divine Ability without restriction until it reached the Nascent Soul Demon King Stage.
"Still, once Senior Sister delivers the spiritual items to repair monster cores, I’ll capture a demon beast and test it out. Otherwise, I’ll always be curious!"
Just before entering the Ti Sandglass, Lin Jing had another thought.
"Since the Erging Lotus Heart Fla has healing properties, could it also repair damaged monster cores?**"
"Ordinarily, it wouldn’t work, but since Dragon Carp wields the** Fla Emperor’s Divine Ability,** it could fuse other exotic flas with the Erging Lotus Heart Fla, strengthening it imnsely. At that point… could it repair monster cores?"
"If so, Dragon Carp might be able to use the Myriad Flas Cauldron to refine pills even before reaching Nascent Soul…"
But before all that, the priority was researching the Treant Pill for the Pine Leaf Mouse, helping it reach Core Formation as soon as possible!
Inside the Ti Sandglass…
The remaining ti inside was running out. For every ten years spent inside, the external world required a one-year cooldown before it could be used again.
Lin Jing was about to experience his first cooldown period, but before that, he could still make use of the remaining ti.
"Wake up."
Lin Jing called out, and deep within his body, a tiny self-sealed, hibernating spider suddenly stirred.
"...Hungry..."
As soon as the Ice Soul Gu awoke, it complained of hunger.
To prevent the Gu God Sect from tracking it, it had been playing dead to remain hidden—until now, when Lin Jing finally decided to wake it up.
"Sorry, while you were asleep, I siphoned a lot of your energy."
Lin Jing scratched his face awkwardly.
Even though the Ice Soul Gu had been hibernating, it hadn't escaped the fate of being used as an ergency power source.
"But don’t worry—I’ve prepared food for you."
He pulled out several ice-attribute monster cores.
The next mont, countless white silk threads shot out from the Ice Soul Gu, piercing into the monster cores, rapidly absorbing their frost energy.
"When you're full, I need you to produce a sub-Gu for . A weaker one, with its ice properties toned down. It only needs to slow down the host’s aging—nothing else."
As a reward, Lin Jing took out a few more ice-attribute monster cores.
The Ice Soul Gu crawled out of his body, dazed, and mumbled:
"Where… is this? You didn’t fall in love again, did you? You need a new host? What kind of physique is it this ti…?"
"This is a separate space, so even if the Gu God Sect tries to track you, they won’t be able to locate you."
"As for the sub-Gu, it's for another Longevity Body. It will reside within her."
"...Another Longevity Body?!"
The Ice Soul Gu was stunned.
Its icy blue eyes widened in shock.
Wait… so its sub-Gu gets to enjoy the longevity bloodline… but it has to stay here and just sniff the scent of long life without ever tasting it?!
What kind of cruelty was this?
It refused!
No way!
"Your sub-Gu won’t be able to absorb energy from the other Longevity Body. She’s extrely weak right now. If your sub-Gu drained her, she’d die instantly."
"The only job of your sub-Gu is to slow down her lifespan depletion, even if it ans sacrificing itself."
"...Oh!"
Hearing that its sub-Gu wasn’t going to be living in luxury but was actually going to suffer, the Ice Soul Gu suddenly felt much better.
"Kekeke, go forth, my sub-Gu! Fulfill your mission! If I can’t feast, then neither can you!"
"...Huh???"
Suddenly, Ice Soul Gu turned its attention to Dragon Carp, who had just sent a greeting through their contract.
"...Wait… why the hell is Dragon Carp already at Core Formation?!"
"啵~~"
Dragon Carp casually responded, "Not just —the Pine Leaf Mouse is about to reach Core Formation too."
The Ice Soul Gu froze.
…
It couldn’t sleep anymore.
Returning to Gu Qianqiu’s Cave…
By the ti Lin Jing returned, Senior Sister had already finished setting up the Spirit Gathering Formation.
Countless spirit stones were buried underground, forming a spiritual vein that sustained the formation.
Stepping inside, Lin Jing almost didn’t want to leave—it was too comfortable.
"This is an Ice Soul Gu sub-Gu. Once you rge it into your body, it should extend your lifespan by ten years."
"At the sa ti, it’ll compensate for your lack of offensive abilities—so don’t waste ti learning other spells. The power of the Ice Soul Gu will be more than enough."
With a flick of his finger, the sub-Gu flew toward Gu Qianqiu.
As soon as she saw the spider approaching, her pupils shrank, and she scrambled backward, pressing against the wall.
"D-Don’t co any closer!"
Lin Jing blinked.
"Wait… you’re afraid of bugs?"
"...So what if I am?!"
She stared at the Ice Soul sub-Gu, swallowing nervously.
"Well, afraid or not, you still have to rge with it."
Ignoring her protests, Lin Jing commanded the Ice Soul sub-Gu to crawl onto her face and into her mouth.
A piercing scream echoed through the cave.
For soone who had once reached the peak of the Void Mystical Stage and had slaughtered countless Sky Lion demons, her fear of bugs was… understandable.
Before long…
A blue-eyed, snow-haired frozen beauty cultivator was born.
…
anwhile, deep in the void…
The Divine Pine was cultivating when, suddenly, a pile of treasures flew through a spatial rift and landed in front of it.
It froze.
