Chapter 91: Chapter 91: Mountain Refining Body, Great Toad Mountain God
Eggshell Village, Eggshell Square.
"Dad, go in peace. I’ll pick a good spot for you!"
Tears stread down Yang Qingniu’s face as he was already thinking about where to bury Yang Wanli.
But suddenly, black smoke billowed from the bloody hole in Yang Wanli’s head. Then, bizarrely, the wound began to heal at an incredible speed.
Yang Qingniu was startled. ’Did the boss step in again?’ he thought. He quickly looked over at Wang Yi, but Wang Yi hadn’t moved at all.
A few monts later, Yang Wanli sat up. The hole in the center of his forehead had completely healed.
"Dad, how are you alive again! You old coot, you just won’t die!"
Yang Qingniu exclaid in delight.
"Scram!"
Yang Wanli barked, not even glancing at his oafish son. He quickly approached Wang Yi, bowed, and said, "Boss, I’m afraid soone is targeting you."
By now, Yang Wanli had already guessed that soone had likely mistaken him for the Roasted Chicken Immortal.
Wang Yi nodded. "For the next month, don’t leave Eggshell Village. Keep a low profile. Better yet, don’t show your face at all!"
"Yes!"
Yang Wanli bowed in acknowledgnt. The Netherworld Spell granted a passive resurrection ability, but it had a one-month cooldown. He had just died once; if he died again within the month, he wouldn’t be able to co back. It would be a true death.
Wang Yi’s good mood was ruined by the sudden assassination attempt. He was no longer in the mood to take inventory of their supplies. He turned to Pang Damao and said, "I don’t care what thods you use, gather all the information you can on ngbai Island. I need to know its location! Also, the man who ca here riding a sword the other day is nad Xiang Tianchen. He’s a resident of ngbai Island. If you get the chance, capture him alive!"
"Yes!"
Pang Damao hastily agreed. He could tell the boss was dead serious this ti.
Of course Wang Yi was serious. ’ngbai Island has a Cultivation Inheritance,’ he thought. ’That Shen Xingnan killed Yang Wanli with a single move. What if he finds out I’m the real Lord and uses that thousand-mile flying knife or so other wicked technique on ?’
’I don’t have the Tongyou Spell, so I can’t resurrect!’
’Therefore, attacking ngbai Island and eliminating Shen Xingnan is a matter of life and death. I have to race against ti. Every second of delay adds another second of risk.’
Wang Yi nodded, walked over to Jelena, and ruffled her hair. "My good daughter," he said, "spread the word: anyone who provides clues about ngbai Island will be handsoly rewarded. Also, I’m leaving things here to you. After you’ve taken inventory of all the supplies, distribute them as needed. I’m going to cultivate!"
"Yes, Father!"
Jelena replied respectfully.
That single "thousand-mile flying knife" attack had put Wang Yi under pressure.
He felt his body was too weak, making him an easy target. If he were to be assassinated, his chances of survival were slim to none. Thus, he was desperate to beco stronger.
And now he had a way to do it: by practicing the skill, Commanding Mountains and Rivers, to perform Mountain and River Body Refining!
And so, Wang Yi brought Qin Mo to the banks of the Jade River.
Commanding Mountains and Rivers Level 1 allowed him to refine one mountain and one river into his body.
Wang Yi decided to try it out on the Jade River first.
"DING! Current river total length: 763 kiloters. Source: living water, ford from the convergence of 33 streams. Refinent requires 17,630,000 Chaos Energy. You are unable to perform Spirit Communication Refinent!"
’How much? 17.63 million Chaos Energy! Is this skill even ant for people to learn? Is the system trying to screw
over? Even if a regular Player had the Commanding Mountains and Rivers skill, it would probably just be for show, wouldn’t it?’
Wang Yi shook his head. He currently had just over 80,000 Chaos Energy, nowhere near enough to perform the Refinent on the Jade River.
’Do I have to go find so little six or seven-kiloter-long river for the Refinent?’
After a mont of thought, Wang Yi steered the Floating Mountain and headed north.
’Refining the Jade River is out of the question, so I might as well try refining a mountain instead. There are plenty of small mountains to the north. If I can’t refine a big one, a small one should be possible, right?’
Wang Yi did try to perform the Refinent on his Floating Mountain, but the system inford him that this particular mountain could not be refined.
Soon, Wang Yi arrived at North Mountain.
"DING! Current mountain elevation: 359 ters. Stretches 7.5 kiloters from east to west. Refinent requires 400,000 Chaos Energy. You are unable to perform Spirit Communication Refinent!"
Wang Yi was greatly disappointed by the system notification.
’I can’t even perform Refinent on a small mountain that’s just over 300 ters high.’
Still, he held onto a sliver of hope. He casually tossed down a set of Peach Blossom Forest Construction Drawings and went off in search of an even smaller peak.
It was worth noting that the Peach Blossom Forest Construction Drawings Wang Yi had tossed out created a kiloter-long Peach Blossom Forest on North Mountain. The blossoms vied for attention in a stunning display, instantly transforming the once-barren peak into a scenic attraction.
Wang Yi continued his patrol through the mountains, using the Peach Blossom Forest Construction Drawings from ti to ti. He had 512 sets of them in total, and there was no point in saving them.
About an hour later, Wang Yi had created the Hundred Miles Peach Blossom Forest. He now found himself at a spot about 25 kiloters east of Eggshell Village, where he discovered a small mountain shaped like a toad. The mountain was covered in green bamboo, and a small path wound around its base.
’This little mountain should do the trick,’ he thought.
Wang Yi used Commanding Mountains and Rivers again, and a system notification sounded: "DING! Current mountain elevation: 126 ters. Base covers an area one kiloter across. Refinent requires 60,000 Chaos Energy. Proceed with Refinent?"
"Refinent, start the Refinent imdiately!"
Wang Yi responded to the system. The naless little mountain began to glow and rapidly shrink, the rocks and trees on its surface shrinking along with it. After a few breaths, it transford into a palm-sized, glowing toad. It hopped into the air, turned into a speck of light, and flew into the center of Wang Yi’s forehead.
At that mont, Wang Yi felt a strange sensation, as if he could hear the very cells of his body breathing. His senses sharpened instantly, and a pleasant warmth spread through his entire being.
"DING! Congratulations on completing the Refinent of a mountain peak. Your Life Force has been greatly enhanced!"
"DING! Refining Mountains as Armor. Congratulations, you have obtained a suit of Battle Armor. The Battle Armor is nad: Green Peak Armor·Great Toad Mountain God. For a cost of 100 Chaos Energy, you can summon this armor to equip yourself or give it to others. While equipped, the Battle Armor will consu one point of Chaos Energy per second..."
Hearing the system notification, Wang Yi focused his thoughts. A light flashed from between his brows, and he was automatically ejected from the cockpit of Prototype No. 1. Then, rocks rapidly began to form around his body.
A few breaths later, Wang Yi had transford into a giant rock toad with green bamboo growing from its back and head. It stood a staggering thirty to forty ters tall.
’Holy cow! The Great Toad Mountain God... with the Battle Armor equipped, this is basically a Monster Transformation! I wonder if an Ultraman is going to show up to fight ?’
Wang Yi was thrilled. He hopped a couple of tis in his Great Toad Mountain God form and found the movent a bit cumberso. But there was no doubt that he now possessed imnse power and could cause massive destruction with ease.
’This is aweso! With this Great Toad Mountain God Battle Armor, I’m invincible in the mortal realm! It can even be equipped by others... Tsk tsk, this is seriously amazing. Totally worth all that Chaos Energy... though it would be even better if wearing it didn’t consu any.’
Wang Yi shook his head. Equipping the Cyan Peak Armor consud one point of Chaos Energy per second. Unwilling to waste it, he quickly unequipped the armor.
After returning to the Floating Mountain, Wang Yi stood before Qin Mo. He took out the Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles with his right hand and held out his left palm. "Old Mo," he said, "bring out your Sword Pill and smash it against my palm!"
Qin Mo quickly bowed. "I wouldn’t dare!"
"Just do as I say! Don’t underestimate your master. I’ve just completed the Mountain Refining Body process. I’m no longer a re Mortal!"
Wang Yi clearly wanted to experience the effects of the Mountain and River Body Refining firsthand.
