Boom!
An Lin swallowed the Pill of Nine Lives, and the power within the pill was quickly released into his body under the effects of his Evergreen Technique.
Nine different streams of energy, all imbued with extremely powerful life force, swept through his entire body.
A green halo appeared above An Lin’s head. This was the manifestation of the Evergreen Technique being unleashed to the extreme.
Five streams of life force energy which were imbued with the power of the Five Elements fused into his organs, blood, and skeletal structure, while another two streams of divine energy nurtured his divine sense. The last two streams of life force energy fused into his meridians and his sea of vital energy.
Green light erupted from An Lin’s body, and the power of life started to radiate outward.
His slightly lethargic aura started to regain its vitality, and his head of white hair started to turn black after being injected with a burst of extremely powerful life-force energy. Like a layer of snow and ice melting away, the white color slowly vanished to reveal the original black color of his hair.
The green light continued to envelop his body as he relentlessly absorbed the life-force energy.
This process lasted for roughly one whole hour.
One hour later, An Lin opened his bright eyes.
He could feel the power of life flowing through his mouth and nostrils with every inhalation and exhalation.
“Who would’ve thought that this pill would still have some remaining power? Looks like my life force has been fully replenished.” An Lin smiled slightly before bringing out his Vermilion Bird Mirror to look at his reflection.
Within the mirror, he saw a handsome male who had a pair of bright, glowing eyes and a head full of jet-black hair.
“So handsome,” An Lin muttered to himself with a content smile.
Vermilion Bird Mirror: “…”
It had to be said, this second-grade immortal pill was extremely potent. Not only did he recover most of his lifespan lost due to the excessive usage of his Divine Simulation Technique, but even his vitality was stronger than it had ever been before.
However, this was all the life-force energy his body could absorb in one sitting. The remaining small portion of lifespan that he couldn’t recover would just have to be recovered at a later date. The path of cultivation was an extremely long one, so he wasn’t particularly distressed by the tiny portion of lifespan that he had lost.
The more he looked at his reflection in the mirror, the more satisfied he became. He felt like his appearance had improved to make him look even more handsome than he once was!
He looked at the mirror and asked with a slight smile, “Mirror mirror in my hand, who’s the most handsome of them all?”
A crisp and tender voice replied, “The Archangel of the Ling Realm.”
An Lin: “… Can’t you just say An Lin?”
Vermilion Bird Mirror: “I can’t lie.”
An Lin heaved a light sigh. “In this cruel world, mirrors like you that don’t know how to please their Master won’t receive love and adoration from their Master.”
Vermilion Bird Mirror: “I don’t want love or adoration… I only beg of you to release me.”
An Lin: “…”
What an honest mirror… Maybe I should just smash it?
An Lin sighed in exasperation as he stowed his Vermilion Bird Mirror away. Then, he used his Divine Inspection Technique on the remaining items.
He first turned his eyes to the three snow orbs as the powerful energy fluctuations that they exuded piqued his interest.
“Snow Explosion Orb: Disposable weapons crafted by High Priestess Meng Zhi of the Holy Glacial Lands. Inject energy within the orb before tossing toward the enemy to create an icy explosion of five kilometers in radius. Resultant explosive power is equivalent to the full-power attack of a Return to Void Stage snow maiden. Can be used by Soul Formation Intermediate Stage cultivators.”
An Lin’s body shuddered, and his eyes glimmered with excitement as he read this description.
Equivalent to a full-power attack of a Return to Void Stage snow maiden?
Holy f*ck! What an epic trump card!
At An Lin’s current cultivation base, these three Snow Explosion Orbs were even more valuable than immortal tools!
This meant that if he ever encountered a Return to Void Stage enemy, he would have the power to retaliate or run away! This was an exceptional life-saving tool!
He gleefully stowed the Snow Explosion Orbs into his storage ring before continuing to look at the remaining items.
He tallied up the items in all five storage rings, and the final result was indeed quite a satisfying one.
There were a total of five hundred and two vital stones, bringing his total wealth to over thirteen million spirit stones! He had finally become a cultivating tycoon with over ten million spirit stones again!
Moreover, there were thirty-two spirit tools, which meant he could use his Sword Burial technique all he wanted from now on!
There were also two extremely potent regenerative immortal pills, two sixth-grade immortal fruits, over a hundred spirit pills, over a hundred spirit fruits, and a bunch of ice-type materials.
The elementary-rank immortal tool, the Heart Lotus Ice Sword, could freeze everything in its wake. Once it was elevated to become a high-rank immortal tool, it would even gain a new Lotus Realm spatial ability.
The high-rank immortal tool, the Heavenly Frost Shard, could increase the power of its user’s spatial seal by fivefold when used in conjunction with spatial manipulation techniques.
Of course, there was still the second-grade immortal pill, but he had already consumed it.
This was a massive haul that had restocked his treasure vault, and it made him giddy with joy.
He opened his room door and walked into the courtyard. He sucked in a deep breath as he looked at the wisteria trees.
Xu Xiaolan also happened to come out from her room at this moment.
She covered her mouth in astonishment when she caught sight of An Lin.
“An Lin, your hair…”
She could feel the overflowing vitality emanating from each and every strand of his hair, and she knew that it hadn’t been dyed.
“I consumed a second-grade immortal pill, and I feel much better now.” An Lin smiled at Xu Xiaolan.
“That’s great…” Tears shimmered in Xu Xiaolan’s eyes as she gazed at An Lin’s black hair.
She was extremely fearful that An Lin’s lifespan would be unrecoverable, and during the past few days, she had been mulling over methods to help him recover his lost lifespan. However, it looked like his lost lifespan could be recovered through the consumption of immortal pills. This came as a great relief to her.
An Lin smiled warmly as he grabbed Xu Xiaolan’s hand and walked under the wisteria trees. Then, he brought out two pear-like fruits which were radiating with a blue glow.
“What are those?” Xu Xiaolan blinked with curiosity.
“These are called Sweet Sweet Snow Fruits. I found them in one of the snow maidens’ storage rings. Apparently, they’re extremely delicious.” Upon inspecting the fruits using his Divine Inspection Technique, a short description had appeared. It simply stated that these spirit fruits were incredibly delicious.
Xu Xiaolan hesitantly picked one up before taking a small bite.
The Sweet Sweet Snow Fruit had an extremely crispy and satisfying texture, and its refreshing sweetness spread through her mouth before sweeping over her entire body. It made her feel as if she were bathing in a sweet and refreshing spring!
“Mmm… delicious!”
Xu Xiaolan spoke in praise as a happy smile spread across on her face. Then, she continued munching on the Sweet Sweet Snow Fruit.
A smile also appeared on An Lin’s face as he started to eat the other Sweet Sweet Snow Fruit.
The Sweet Sweet Snow Fruit perfectly complemented their great mood and the good weather.
The following day was just as sunny and vibrant.
An Lin rode on Da Bai as he, along with his beast pet team and Xu Xiaolan, all embarked on their journey back to the Heavenly Court.
