Chapter 140: Refinent of the Ice Heart Gu
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
‘Tomorrow? So urgent?’
Zhou Feng frowned. He had not imagined that the others would initiate a fight so soon after entering the blessed land for a short period.
It seed that those people were not willing to wait for another day.
To be honest, this round of battles was out of Leng Maner’s expectations.
Leng Maner did not think that those people would be so direct, not giving her any ti to delay.
Originally, according to Leng Maner’s plan, Zhou Feng would have to delay for at least 20 days.
Leng Maner would be able to try to break through within these 20 days.
But now, with this battle of attrition, Zhou Feng probably wouldn’t be able to last even a day.
If it were a one-vs-one battle, Leng Maner would still have so confidence in Zhou Feng.
There were many talented disciples in the sect, and Zhou Feng probably wouldn’t be able to last even the first day if they took turns.
To be honest, Leng Maner had already put in motion her backup plan.
As for Zhou Feng, he could hold on for as long as he could!
‘This battle of attrition…’
Zhou Feng took so unknown dicinal herbs out of his storage ring and stuffed them into his mouth as he started to think about how to deal with this battle.
Soon, his Level-2 Gluttony was triggered, and all the dicinal herbs he had stuffed into his mouth turned into Blood Qi.
This was to replenish his previous consumption.
Zhou Feng now had to plan how he would fight it out.
To be honest, Zhou Feng was more suitable to fight in a round-robin battle because of his passive Whetstone, which allowed him to increase his endurance after a battle.
After experiencing so many battles, his endurance had long increased by a lot. He did not need to worry about his stamina.
‘Stall for ti! In other words, should I act like a turtle?’
Zhou Feng thought about it. The letter stated that he should try to stall for ti.
Then he would not take the initiative to attack. Instead, he would let the opponent attack and rely on his endurance and recovery speed. Wouldn’t he be able to stall for a day?
After all, he had co to an agreent with Leng Maner.
Leng Maner had not only allowed him to enter and exit the Scripture Pavillion freely, but she also helped him obtain a few Pure Blood Gu.
As such, Zhou Feng had to keep his part of the deal.
Since Leng Maner wanted to stall for ti, he would stall for ti.
It was a war of attrition! It was impossible for him to go up against the strongest at the start!
Normally, the few who went up before the battle of attrition would be there to exhaust his stamina.
In Zhou Feng’s mind, he felt that he could play for a year if he only needed to defend and not attack.
‘It seems that I can only do this…’
‘Isn’t it a re battle of attrition? Then I will directly cheat!
‘Moreover, the battle will be held in front of everyone, so it should be very difficult for so many people to act behind the scenes!’
The stake of the battle was the position of the next Sect Leader. If soone did sothing in such a situation, then no one would be convinced of the final result.
The more Zhou Feng thought about it, the more correct he was. He did not panic at all and decided to refine the Ice Heart Gu.
‘I should refine the Ice Heart Gu first. Otherwise, all sorts of illusions will appear in front of …’
Leng Maner had handed to him the main ingredient he needed to refine the Ice Heart Gu, so he could now start refining the Ice Heart Gu and resolve the Demon-Devouring Technique’s side effects.
To be honest, these side effects were really annoying.
Not only did they cause the Soul Altar to be polluted, but the practitioner would also see all kinds of illusions. There would be whispers in one’s ears from ti to ti as well.
Zhou Feng had long regretted using the Demon-Devouring Technique, even though it was very satisfying when one’s cultivation level rose rapidly. The price was too severe. It was better to use the passive Soul Harvesting.
Every ti Zhou Feng thought of this, he felt that he had been too anxious back then.
Nonetheless, it had happened; a person’s decision could not always be right.
Zhou Feng only felt a little regretful. He would not have used the Demon-Devouring Technique if he had a choice back then.
Zhou Feng headed to the Gu refinent pool, full of Gus. This was the preparation he had made to refine the Ice Heart Gu.
One could see Pure Blood Gus in the pool. After this period of mutual devouring, there were only three huge Pure Blood Gus left.
“Next is the Hundred-Year Ice Lotus!”
Zhou Feng bit his finger and dripped his blood into the pool.
Next, he used his soul power to agitate the Gus in the pool and finally put the Hundred-Year Ice Lotus into the pool.
Zhou Feng followed the steps of refining the Ice Heart Gu, and the process was more like an experint.
There was not much that could be changed in the whole process. Even if the correct steps were followed, the final result might end up as a failure.
This was full of randomness. One might fail to refine the Gu or even refine a strange Gu.
The Ice Heart Gu was special, but it could live in a person’s body like other Gus.
When the Ice Heart Gu lived in a person’s body, it would continuously release a cool aura.
This cool aura could calm a person’s emotions, allowing them to maintain a clear mind.
It could also allow one to temporarily enter the realm where one would be unmoved regardless of the wind or rain.
Such a special Gu was of no use to most people.
This was because it did not help the speed of cultivation, and it was also a burden to oneself.
That’s right! It would not be over once the Ice Heart Gu was successfully refined.
Like most Gus, once the Ice Heart Gu parasitized a person’s body, it would absorb Spiritual Qi to maintain its own body at all tis.
Almost no one in the Tri-Gu Sect wanted to refine this kind of Gu, which could not assist in cultivation and did not have the ability to fight. Only people with special needs like Zhou Feng would refine this kind of Gu.
For example, the Energy-Absorbing Gu that could assist in cultivation was the most popular Gu in the Tri-Gu Sect.
Basically, every disciple wished that they could have a kind of Energy-Absorbing Gu to live in their body.
This Energy-Absorbing Gu could help one to absorb and purify Spiritual Qi, making the host’s cultivation speed several tis faster than the average person.
Unfortunately, the Energy-Absorbing Gu was extrely difficult to refine, and it was also very expensive to raise.
Unlike most Gus that could eat Spiritual Qi to maintain their bodies, the Energy-Absorbing Gu also needed to eat so special spirit herbs regularly. Thus, an average person could not afford to raise it.
Zhou Feng was very interested in the Gu system, but these strange Gus needed to be nurtured slowly.
He did not have the ti to study them slowly.
To be honest, this Ice Heart Gu was relatively easy to refine. As long as the most important ingredient was gathered, it could normally be refined successfully.
Otherwise, Zhou Feng would not want to refine the Gu like this slowly.
If he wanted to study this Gu slowly, he might as well study how ato quickly obtain a passive skill.
Perhaps when he left the Tri-Gu Sect and did not face so much pressure to survive, he would study this Gu system. After all, there were many jade slips regarding refining various Gus in Zhou Feng’s storage ring..
