Chapter 425: Delivering the Ten Thousand Year Cold Marrow
After the Mimicry was lifted, the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm held in Yu Tianlin's hand, along with the Thunder God's Hammer and the Dragon Slaying Saber strapped to his back, were all revealed.
"Hello there, young lady," the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm said cheerfully as soon as it appeared. "My name is Tianmeng. Please take care of me from now on."
"A talking Spirit Beast?"
Hearing the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm speak human language, Shui Bing'er looked at Yu Tianlin in surprise.
"Is it a Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Beast?"
Yu Tianlin nodded. "You could say that."
"What Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Beast?"
While Yu Tianlin was casual about it, the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm was displeased.
"I have 900,000 years of cultivation. 900,000 years!"
For the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, the label of Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Beast was far too dangerous. If that spread, it would definitely attract a lot of covetous eyes. But 900,000 years was different. In its view, if a human Spirit Master tried to absorb a 900,000 year Spirit Ring, they would surely explode and die.
"Alright, its cultivation truly is 900,000 years, and based purely on cultivation, it even approaches the level of a Divine Beast."
Yu Tianlin glanced at the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm.
"However, Bing'er, don't think it's too powerful. Its actual combat strength is not even as good as a typical Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Beast. Take the Mimicry skill it just used to hide its tracks, for example. Even you could detect the inconsistencies. If it really came down to a fight, it might not even be your opponent."
Although the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm wanted to refute Yu Tianlin's words, that was the truth. It did not know where to begin, so it could only give up resentfully.
Seeing the interaction between Yu Tianlin and the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, Shui Bing'er could not help smiling.
"Your relationship looks very good."
"It's alright. I need this guy's help with some cultivation related matters, and I can also solve the problems it faces. It's mutual assistance."
Yu Tianlin spoke casually while taking out the ten thousand year cold marrow from his storage spirit tool.
"Oh right, the reason I came this time was to give this to you."
Speaking of which, this piece of ten thousand year cold marrow was actually quite large, nearly half the height of a person. When Yu Tianlin took it out, the coldness radiating from it immediately lowered the temperature of the entire office by several degrees.
"Huh? Isn't that mine..."
Seeing Yu Tianlin about to give the ten thousand year cold marrow away, the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm was stunned.
"You've eaten so much before. Isn't that enough?" Yu Tianlin asked helplessly. "Furthermore, if you eat this last piece too, your cultivation will become extremely close to one million years. When the million year Heavenly Tribulation descends, I don't have much confidence in helping you block it. At that point, you'll just have to pray for good fortune."
"Million year Heavenly Tribulation..."
Hearing Yu Tianlin say this, the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm immediately shrank its head back.
To be honest, after experiencing several Heavenly Tribulations, even though Yu Tianlin had helped it block them all, it had still developed a trauma toward that destructive Heavenly Tribulation. If it could avoid provoking it, it would try its best not to.
"Since that's the case, then forget it."
Glancing covetously at the ten thousand year cold marrow, the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm ultimately considered its own life, forcefully suppressed its desire, and said this.
Although Shui Bing'er did not recognize the ten thousand year cold marrow, she could tell from the words of Yu Tianlin and the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm that it was an extremely valuable item. Naturally, she declined.
"I don't need it. Since this belongs to Tianmeng, it should be returned to Tianmeng."
"Bing'er, there's no need to decline," Yu Tianlin said. "Tianmeng has eaten too much of this thing before. It's already sick of it."
While saying this, Yu Tianlin gently shook the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, signaling it to say something as well.
"That's right."
The Tianmeng Ice Silkworm was helpless and could only nod in agreement.
"I've already eaten too much. If I eat any more, I might eat myself to death, so it's better to give it to you, young lady."
Yu Tianlin continued, "Tianmeng is already a 900,000 year Spirit Beast. If it eats this thing again, it might break through to one million years, and when a Spirit Beast breaks through to one million years, an extremely terrifying Heavenly Tribulation will descend. With its current strength, it definitely cannot pass safely, so feeding this to it would simply be accelerating its death."
"But Bing'er, you are different. If you refine this piece of ten thousand year cold marrow, you won't have any problems like Heavenly Tribulation. Instead, you can use it to speed up your cultivation. According to my estimate, once you have completely refined this ten thousand year cold marrow, you will conservatively be able to reach the cultivation level of a Titled Douluo."
"I am already an eighty seventh level Spirit Douluo, and I am not far from breaking through to Titled Douluo. Therefore, I hope you can also quickly reach the Titled Douluo realm, Bing'er. That way, you can help me better in the future."
After this long speech, Shui Bing'er fell silent for a moment. Then she looked deeply at Yu Tianlin and asked, "Tianlin, are you about to become a Titled Douluo?"
"Big Brother is indeed about to become what you humans call a Titled Douluo."
Before Yu Tianlin could reply, the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm spoke up for him.
"Moreover, Big Brother's actual combat strength far surpasses his cultivation. Just a few days ago, he beat an incredibly terrifying Titled Douluo until he fled in panic, with both his arms blown off. Good heavens, flesh and blood flew everywhere. It was a miserable sight."
"You talk too much!"
Yu Tianlin knocked the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm on the head, speechless, telling it not to speak nonsense.
Talking about it so frighteningly, with all that flesh and blood flying, damages my image.
"Since that's the case, then I will accept it. This thing is called ten thousand year cold marrow, right?"
After hearing the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's narration, Shui Bing'er said, "I will become a Titled Douluo as quickly as possible. That way, no matter what happens in the future, I will have enough strength to stand by your side, Tianlin, and face it together with you."
"Bing'er, it's wonderful that you think that way."
Given the current development of the situation on the Douluo Continent, if Shui Bing'er did not have external help, she probably would not reach the Titled Douluo level by the time the war with Spirit Hall fully broke out. On such a battlefield, not having Titled Douluo level cultivation would undoubtedly be extremely dangerous. Naturally, it was best that she accepted the ten thousand year cold marrow now.
After giving the ten thousand year cold marrow to Shui Bing'er, Yu Tianlin stayed at the Four Element Academies and accompanied her for half a day before leaving.
Leaving Heaven Dou City, Yu Tianlin hurried toward the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan outside the city.
What had happened in the past six months?
What major moves had Spirit Hall made?
Had his grandfather's cultivation improved?
He had too many questions, and all of them could only be answered within the clan.
The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan was not far from Heaven Dou City, so Yu Tianlin arrived quickly.
Having been away from home for half a year, Yu Tianlin could not help feeling emotional as he looked at the majestic aura of the clan.
When he left, he carried the Dragon Slaying Saber.
Now that he had returned, the Dragon Slaying Saber was still present, and he also had an extra Thunder God's Hammer.
For a power on the Douluo Continent like the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan to possess two Divine Artifacts was truly a great source of prestige.
