Chapter 535: Chapter 535: A Wonderful Idea
Jiang Xiaobai hadn’t expected White Crane to be so generous and decisive.
He remembered trying to ask White Crane more questions, but the guy was always secretive and wouldn’t give straight answers.
But now, it was even better than Jiang Xiaobai expected!
He had planned on spending the next few days pushing his strength up a notch, but now White Crane had given him the World Stone, helping him complete his task ahead of schedule!
This allowed him to step up even more!
“Thank you.”
“Don’t mention it. My initial thought was to give you two World Stones, but since you’ve been so generous, I’ll actually share some good news with you.”
Jiang Xiaobai found himself twitching in surprise.
This damn White Crane, messing with him like this, so annoying!
“Correction, it’s two pieces of news.”
White Crane chuckled, “Trust me, these two bit of news will be very beneficial for you. Since you’ve already come into contact with the World Stone, hiding certain things from you won’t do any good.”
“Let’s hear it. What’s the good news?”
Jiang Xiaobai promptly prompted.
“Firstly, your fortunate mentor Gu Ning is present in the Holy City, specifically in the central area. You can go whenever you wish, I can transport you there, and the visit will greatly benefit you.”
As White Crane casually sipped his tea, he glanced at Ao Yan and the others.
This confused Jiang Xiaobai a bit.
Why would Gu Ning be in the central area of the Holy City?
Could she have some powerful position in the central area?
“The second piece of news involves the mutt on your shoulder. It’s no ordinary creature. Honestly, Jiang Xiaobai, I sometimes envy your luck—how can it be so good?!”
White Crane slowly laughed, “Leave the dog behind, when you return from your business, you will find a surprise.”
Without another word, Jiang Xiaobai lifted the sleeping mutt from his shoulder by its tail and tossed it at White Crane.
“Well then, thank you.”
“I’ll be leaving them in your care, I have limited time.”
White Crane agreed placidly, “Don’t worry, while they’re with me, I ensure that they will stay unharmed.”
Hearing this, a particular thought flickered in Jiang Xiaobai’s mind, and he glanced at White Crane in surprise, tentatively asking,
“Even against a Zeus Thunderbolt?”
White Crane’s face abruptly changed, he took a deep breath, seemingly unable tolerate Jiang Xiaobai’s pushing.
However, to everyone’s surprise, he actually nodded his head!
Yes, he nodded!
This left Jiang Xiaobai completely dumbfounded.
If he can even withstand a Zeus Thunderbolt, then what could possibly pose a threat to him?
It engendered another question—who exactly is White Crane?
Jiang Xiaobai cast a deep glance at White Crane but decided not to ask, figuring that each time White Crane had appeared, he had been helping Jiang Xiaobai.
The man obviously had no inclination to reveal more at this time, but Jiang Xiaobai believed that he would discover the truth someday.
“Okay, stay here. Don’t wander off. Unless something unexpected occurs, I should be back by the start of the auction.”
Jiang Xiaobai said it calmly.
Ao Yan and the others nodded without a word, their eyes carrying a unified resolve.
Without spending time on any further exchanges, Jiang Xiaobai simply turned around to leave.
After he was gone, Ao Yan and the others puzzledly stared at one another for a while, and then they all began to meditate.
Just then, White Crane tossed each of them a storage ring.
“Meditate diligently, strive to keep up with him. His future and the burdens he carries are far-reaching and heavy.”
“Every bit stronger that you become, assists him that much more.”
At these words, they all gaped in surprise.
“White Crane, what exactly do you know? What ‘future’, what ‘burdens’—explain clearly!”
Ao Yan hurriedly asked, her expression showing worry.
“Don’t worry, unless something unexpected happens, you will know soon enough. But that depends on whether you can keep up with his pace.”
Having said that, White Crane stood up, gazing at the distant sky, his expression grave.
“A small pond like this cannot possibly be his limit.”
His statement was rather bewildering.
The group interpreted White Cranes intentions as being that Jiang Xiaobai might fare even better in the Holy City.
If only they knew the truth, their jaws would drop to the floor.
…
After leaving White Crane’s pawnshop, Jiang Xiaobai promptly disappeared into a corner of a nearby mountain range, not giving a care to what was happening.
His goal now was to increase his power as much as possible within the next two days!
Given that it wouldn’t be possible to advance his cultivation base, the only thing he could do was to refine his primordial spirit!
Although his current power, with the Seven Treasures Pagoda in his possession, would suffice to combat those opponents.
And even if it didn’t, there was the Slaying Immortal Sword Formation, and even the opportunity to use the inborn spirit treasures.
But these were Jiang Xiaobai’s trump cards, which he was reluctant to use easily—these were his true life-saving measures.
If in advance of that he could raise his power to a certain level, then these wouldn’t be necessary.
After finding a concealed location, Jiang Xiaobai began to check his spoils.
The task with the World Stone was completed, reward credited, and the speed of earning prestige points had greatly increased, to the point that he felt like he was hardly lacking in prestige points now.
What was even more frightening was his karma—the golden right hand!
He looked at his right hand, which had turned a gleaming gold, and his brain flashed the phrase.
Golden Right Hand!
“Damn, even though my entire right hand has turned into a Karma Body, it’s useless, I wouldn’t dare to use it!”
“And these ten thousand immortal stones, although they can help to improve my power, I dare not break through the Dividing Souls Stage.”
Jiang Xiaobai muttered to himself, then pulled out the ten drops of Primordial Spirit Liquid that the system had gifted him because of his malicious reputation last time.
Just a glance at the description of this item made his eyes light up.
“Amazing, this thing actually accelerates the refining effect of the Primordial Spirit?!”
Jiang Xiaobai cried out in surprise.
But then he remembered his Seven Colored Primordial Spirit task, if he remembered correctly, the reward of successfully completing it would be a hundred bottles of Primordial Spirit Liquid!
So here lay the problem, how could such a good item be a reward after completing the Seven-colored Primordial Spirit task?
All of a sudden, a terrible idea struck Jiang Xiaobai.
The only function of the Primordial Spirit Liquid is to speed up the refining rate of the primordial spirit, it doesn’t truly enhance the primordial spirit.
It’s essentially a supportive tool.
So, after successfully crystallizing a seven-colored primordial spirit once, could he do it again?
Once this thought appeared, Jiang Xiaobai couldn’t stop himself from dwelling on it—if he could cultivate another rainbow primordial spirit, wouldn’t that mean he had twice the power of a seven-colored primordial spirit?
Then how much would his power level increase to!
Would it not be possible to face off the Dividing Souls late-stage peak outright?
Thinking further, would he not be invincible in the world?
