Chapter 1164: [Mystic Shadow Lotus Spirit Orb]!
Tang Li Xue went straight to the Lightning Floor in the [Nine Elementals Immortal Pagoda] to find Little Loki.
“Take out everything.” Tang Li Xue said in a stern tone to Little Loki.
“Meow?” Little Loki cutely tilted its tiny furry head and acted obliviously.
It looked very cute and adorable, but Tang Li Xue had already gotten used to Little Loki’s ’underhanded tactic’.
When Little Loki made a mistake, such as getting caught secretly eating a lot of precious treasures that Tang Li Xue had piled up inside the [Nine Elementals Immortal Pagoda], it would always put on this kind of cute act every time, so Tang Li Xue would become soft-hearted and could not bear to punish it anymore.
This time, Tang Li Xue would not fall into the same ’dirty trick’ again!
Tang Li Xue put her slender hands on her hips and glared sternly at Little Loki.
“Tsk~!” Little Loki clicked its tongue in disappointment.
Then Little Loki opened its tiny mouth and released a large amount of [Stone Heart Gems], like a falling waterfall, until it formed a small hill!
Tang Li Xue nodded in satisfaction, but she immediately frowned deeply and glared at Little Loki again.
“Little Loki~! I said take out everything! All of them! Do you hear me?! Or I will cut the amount of your daily snacks by two-thirds from now on!” Tang Li Xue scolded Little Loki.
Little Loki sighed helplessly and thought: ’I really missed the previous vixen that was so easy to deceive back then.’
Little Loki spat out a small amount of [Darkness Source Crystals] this time.
Then it turned around and walked away with flopped ears and a pitiful, wronged expression.
Tang Li Xue quickly grabbed the back of Little Loki’s neck before it could run away from her.
Little Loki stared at Tang Li Xue with a pair of tearful eyes as if it were really greatly wronged by Tang Li Xue.
If all cat lovers saw this scene, they would have already condemned Tang Li Xue for bullying Little Loki.
But Tang Li Xue did not fall for Little Loki’s deception at all.
“Do you know that I have a skill called [Mind’s Eyes] that can read anyone’s mind? Do you think you can fool my [Mind’s Eyes] even if you put on a pitiful and miserable act?” Tang Li Xue asked Little Loki in a nonchalant tone.
Little Loki’s expression immediately changed from tearful and sad to an angry expression as if it were angrily saying: “How could you use that skill to read my mind? Do you really have no trust in me?”
“Do you truly think you can be trusted?” Tang Li Xue asked back Little Loki in a mocking tone.
Little Loki stared at Tang Li Xue with a pair of eyes filled with disbelief and thought: ’We have been fighting in many life and death situations together so many times. How can you still not have any trust in me? Is your heart made of stone or ice? How cold~! How cruel~! How scary~! Where is my mommy?! I want my warm and kindhearted mommy back?!’
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes when he read Little Loki’s thought.
“Stop trying to change the subject! Spit all of them out quickly!” Tang Li Xue impatiently said to Little Loki.
Little Loki hesitated for a few minutes before it reluctantly spat out the last treasure that it had stolen from under the [Wretched Ghost Rat King]’s nose.
Tang Li Xue held the back of Little Loki’s neck and patiently waited until Little Loki spat out the last treasure.
She caught the treasure and let Little Loki go.
The treasure was actually a black crystal ball the size of a fist.
It looked like an ominous, cursed item rather than a precious treasure, which made Tang Li Xue suspect that Little Loki might deceive her again and give a fake item to her instead.
But Tang Li Xue immediately noticed a small, beautiful purple lotus inside the black crystal ball.
“I want to see just how precious this thing that Little Loki covets so much.” Tang Li Xue smiled and muttered in a playful tone as she activated her intermediate [All Knowing Eyes] to see the black crystal ball’s information.

[Mystic Shadow Lotus Spirit Orb]
[Description: A heaven and earth treasure naturally born inside the Mystic Shadow Cave Realm after being nurtured by the Mystic Shadow Cave Realm’s laws. Unfortunately, more than half of its effect and energy had been absorbed by [Wretched Ghost Rat King], leaving only 39.8% of it left.]
[Effect 1: Contains a vast amount of pure darkness and shadow element spiritual energy. It can be refined and absorbed using darkness element cultivation techniques to rapidly improve cultivation levels.]
[Effect 2: Refining and absorbing the pure darkness and shadow element spiritual energy in this gem will also increase the comprehension of the Profound Law of Darkness and Shadow.]
[Effect 3: If any beast refines all the energy contained in this treasure, it will awaken a high-tier darkness-element or shadow-type divine ability.]
[Effect 4: If any human refines all the energy contained in this treasure, that person will awaken a darkness-element or shadow-type physique.]
[Effect 5: This treasure can be used to forge a very powerful darkness-element spirit treasure.]

“Holy crap—!” Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes and exclaimed in shock and disbelief.
No wonder the [Wretched Ghost Rat King] had lost its mind and become so crazy in anger after Little Loki stole this [Mystic Shadow Lotus Spirit Orb] from it before!
No wonder Little Loki looked so unwilling to give this [Mystic Shadow Lotus Spirit Orb] to Tang Li Xue just now!
This [Mystic Shadow Lotus Spirit Orb] was actually an incredibly precious heaven and earth treasure!
It might be even more precious than the [Dragon Tears Weed] that Tang Li Xue had obtained from [Long Neck Demon Crocodile] before!
“Unfortunately, the [Wretched Ghost Rat King] has already consumed more than half of its effect and energy, so its worth has also decreased by more than half.” Tang Li Xue sighed in great disappointment.
In short, the 3rd effect and the 4th effect of the [Mystic Shadow Lotus Spirit Orb] should already be useless since the effect and energy of the [Mystic Shadow Lotus Spirit Orb] have been decreased by more than half right now.
As for its 1st effect, using the [Mystic Shadow Lotus Spirit Orb]’s energy to increase cultivation level was too wasteful, so Tang Li Xue immediately rejected that idea.
Using the [Mystic Shadow Lotus Spirit Orb] to make a powerful darkness-element spirit treasure was quite tempting, but unfortunately, Tang Li Xue also did not practice any darkness-element cultivation techniques or have any darkness-element divine abilities, so it was also too wasteful for Tang Li Xue to have it.
In the end, only the [Mystic Shadow Lotus Spirit Orb]’s 2nd effect was good enough for Tang Li Xue.
“I can get more [Darkness Source Crystals] to quickly comprehend Profound Law of Darkness, so I can use this [Mystic Shadow Lotus Spirit Orb] to comprehend the Profound Law of Shadow instead.” Tang Li Xue stated her decision.
The Profound Law of Shadow was a variation of the Profound Law of Darkness, so if Tang Li Xue could fully master both Profound Laws, their combined power should be more than just one plus one equal to two.
It was also the same if Tang Li Xue could comprehend Profound Law of Heat and Cold, plus Profound Law of Fire, plus Profound Law of Ice.
Of course, that was not an easy thing to do!
Everyone knew those kinds of profound laws in combination would greatly improve their strength, but not everyone could fully master all the Profound Laws they wanted.
It was all about compatibility matters.
Some people could fully master the Profound Law of Fire because they practiced the fire-element cultivation method.
Then they knew they could greatly improve their strength if they could master the Profound Law of Wind, but in the end, they could not master the Profound Law of Wind at all because they were not compatible with it.
Even a genius with a protagonist template like Lu Xingchen could not just fully master all the Profound Laws he wants!
As for Tang Li Xue, she had a cheat, so she did not need to worry about the compatibility matters at all.
With her Regalia of [Celestial Dream], she could rapidly raise the Profound Laws she comprehended until she fully mastered them all.
Of course, if anyone could have abundant treasures like [Stone Heart Gems] and [Darkness Source Crystals], then they should be able to fully master all the Profound Laws they want.
Even those brainless mutated beasts could master several Profound Laws by consuming those treasures.
Of course, the treasures that could rapidly raise the Profound Law comprehension, like [Stone Heart Gems] and [Darkness Source Crystals], were actually very rare outside, so not everyone could rely on those kinds of treasures to fully master the Profound Laws.
“Oh, right… By the way, I have not used my [Celestial Dream] yet today. It was such a pity not to use it on someone to improve my Profound Laws comprehension.” Tang Li Xue suddenly remembered and frustratedly slapped her smooth forehead.
Unfortunately, the cooldown of Tang Li Xue’s [Celestial Dream] was refreshed by absorbing the power of the sun, moon, and stars, so the cooldown time was counted equal to the time outside the [Nine Elementals Immortal Pagoda].
In short, even if Tang Li Xue stayed inside the [Nine Elementals Immortal Pagoda] for three days, the cooldown of her [Celestial Dream] still would not be refreshed because it was only equal to a few hours outside.
Only if the three days have passed outside will the cooldown of her [Celestial Dream] be refreshed.
