Old Jack stepped aside to lead the way,introducing with a hint of pride, "A hundred years ago, a Soul Saint emerged from this village, and thus the village's name was changed to Holy Soul Village!"
"Holy Soul Village?"
Dongfang Jing followed along, subtly observing his surroundings, and casually asked, "Are there any other Soul Masters in the village now?"
This was his biggest concern, as this place wasn't too far from the cave.
Perhaps that mysterious powerhouse lived in this village.
If that were the case, he would have to leave with his sister immediately.
Old Jack shook his head, his expression somewhat somber: "That's it. Everyone in our village has useless martial spirits, no soul power."
But he quickly perked up and started talking: "But heaven has eyes! This year, one of the children in our village who awakened had innate full soul power! I, this old man, personally escorted him to the Soul Master Academy in the city to register!"
Old Jack sighed, his tone filled with pity: "That child has a hard life. He's never seen his mother, and his father is a decadent alcoholic who doesn't even bother to see his son off to school in the city! I came back wanting to talk to him..."
"Well, he's vanished without a trace! Sigh, Tang San has been sensible since he was little, it's a pity his spirit is Blue Silver Grass, a useless spirit. But at least he has innate full spirit power, he can become a spirit master, his life will get better!"
Old Jack rambled on, seeing Dongfang Jing listening intently, he asked curiously, "I see you're already a spirit master at such a young age, young master, your sister looks about the same age as Xiao San, why isn't she in school?"
Dongfang Jing didn't answer that question; his attention was completely captured by another piece of information, his pupils slightly contracting.
Tang San? Is it that protagonist Tang San?
Blue Silver Grass? Innate full spirit power!
These words combined stirred up a storm in his heart.
He and his sister exchanged a glance, both having the same thought.
How could a useless spirit possess innate full spirit power?
Besides, they just came out of the cave where the Blue Silver Grass spirit bone was hidden.
What a coincidence!
Dongfang Jing suppressed his thoughts, his face remaining calm, and said to Old Jack, "Village Chief, please take us to our lodgings first."
"Alright, this way."
After Old Jack left, only the brother and sister remained in the house.
"We just discovered the Blue Silver Grass spirit beast, and then we heard about a Blue Silver Grass spirit master with innate full spirit power. This might just be a coincidence, or it might not be," Dongfang Jing pondered.
"A useless spirit cannot possess innate full spirit power, unless the Spirit Hall deacon who helped Tang San awaken it is blind."
He tapped his fingers lightly on the table: "Tang San's spirit is definitely not ordinary Blue Silver Grass."
'Blue Silver Grass, the mother of his mother?'
Dongfang Jing's brows furrowed more and more, trying hard to recall his memories from his past life.
'Why would it call her mother? Didn't Village Chief Jack say that Tang San had never seen his mother?'
A fleeting image of the blue silver grass with its golden veins flashed through his mind.
Dongfang Yao tilted her head, somewhat puzzled, "Brother, we've never even met him, why are you so concerned about him?"
It was the first time she'd seen her brother care so much about someone.
Of course, she was an exception, of course.
Dongfang Jing temporarily put his thoughts aside.
He rubbed the little girl's head, "Come on, let's not talk about him, let me show you my new ability."
Stepping into the mirror, the two found themselves in the Hall of a Thousand Mirrors.
Boundless and endless, the mirrors that formed the walls seemed within reach, yet upon closer inspection, they felt incredibly distant.
Dongfang Yao had undergone rigorous training here before, even running a marathon, so she had some understanding of this mysterious space.
She ran for dozens of kilometers in a straight line, but couldn't reach the end.
Then, the outline of a door appeared on the mirror wall closest to them.
Dongfang Jing pushed the door open; only he could touch everything here.
Inside the door was a small, circular cavern, large enough to accommodate several people. The mirrored walls of the cavern were cool to the touch, just like the feel of a mirror.
In the center was a circular pool also made of mirrors.
Dongfang Yao felt a strange unease. Was this Hall of Ten Thousand Mirrors truly composed entirely of mirrors, with no other materials?
She peered inside and discovered that the pool was filled with a peculiar liquid.
It looked like flowing water, but it was silvery-white, shimmering with tiny, floating starlight.
Dongfang Yao had never seen this before, but she felt that the liquid exuded a pure, peaceful, and comforting aura.
"I call it the Radiant Mirror Spring," Dongfang Jing explained.
"As my strength increases, the Hall of Ten Thousand Mirrors will gain new effects. But this time, it's different from the previous abilities that tormented the body and eroded willpower. This silvery-white pool water can calm the mind and eliminate mental fatigue; at the same time, it can subtly temper us, removing a trace of turbidity from our meridians and soul power, making the flow of soul power smoother!"
Soaking in this pool water won't directly increase their soul power.
Rather, it's about 'restoring their condition' and 'maintaining their potential.'
"Every seven days, the pool will naturally fill up. Each time it fills, the water is enough for one person to soak for ten minutes. Once the time is up, everything inside will be forcibly expelled from the pool. And this water cannot be scooped out; once it leaves the pool's area, it will immediately lose all its properties and turn into ordinary clear water."
As he spoke, Dongfang Jing scooped up a little water and held it in his palm.
As soon as he raised his hand, the silvery-white liquid instantly turned into colorless and odorless clear water.
"Of course, it's theoretically possible to dive into the pool and drink deeply, but it's best not to. This pool is like a medicinal bath; you can soak in it but not drink it. Our human bodies are too fragile to withstand the energy it contains!"
Dongfang Jing explained.
He was so clear about this because after absorbing his third soul ring, the Mirror Pool appeared in the Hall of Ten Thousand Mirrors without warning.
A few days ago, while traveling, he found some common rats in a pit and tested it out.
He fed the rats a few drops of the Mirror Spring; nothing happened, but with more, the rats' bodies visibly swelled, as if they were about to explode and die.
After hearing the explanation, Dongfang Yao understood the purpose of the silvery-white liquid: "So, brother wants to use this to nourish the soul of that Blue Silver Grass?"
"Yes, there are too many suspicious points about it. Let's try to communicate with it first. If not, we can destroy it later. Of course, this Mirror Spring only nourishes the soul, not increases cultivation, so there's no need to worry about it posing a threat to us. As for that right leg bone, you take it."
"I don't want it! Brother, absorb it!" Dongfang Yao immediately interrupted, shaking her head like a rattle.
"Listen to me, you absorb it."
"No! No! No!"
This was the first time she had so resolutely opposed her brother's decision.
The young man frowned slightly upon seeing this.
Dongfang Yao's heart tightened at his reaction, and she panicked.
However, Dongfang Jing offered a compromise: "Then let's not let anyone absorb it, and put it in the soul tool first. Our current strength is low, and we don't know much about soul bones. If we absorb them rashly, it would be terrible if something uncontrollable happened! If we get something better later, we can let someone else absorb it, how about that?"
Dongfang Yao breathed a sigh of relief, her back sweating profusely. Luckily, she hadn't angered her brother.
"Okay!" She immediately beamed and nodded obediently.
Dongfang Jing, watching her change of expression so quickly, secretly worried.
'This girl will definitely be incredibly rebellious when she grows up.'
