Devouring Exotic Water

This place is the ruins of an ancient super-force, the Talisman Sect. This small plaza was once a training ground for the Talisman Sect's disciples. After endless years, the contained Exotic Water has nurtured a wisp of sentience, which is not strange at all.

From what Hun Han knows, in an academy not far from here, there is an Exotic Flame that has already nurtured a wisp of sentience.

"Mm."

The Exploding Heaven Gang leader nodded, handing the Storage Ring in his hand to Zi Yan, and then gave a water-blue Magic Core to Hun Han. He held only a black bamboo-like stick in his hand. He instructed, "If the situation is unclear later, immediately place this Magic Core into the slot. Don't hesitate, and don't wait for me, escape quickly."

Hun Han was stunned and murmured, "Master, why does what you're saying sound like you're making final arrangements?"

"Don't mess around, did you understand what Master said?" the Exploding Heaven Gang leader asked solemnly.

"Mm." Hun Han nodded.

Seeing this, the Exploding Heaven Gang leader then held the black bamboo stick and walked forward.

Standing in the distance, Hun Han could only see the Exploding Heaven Gang leader in front of him walk to the high stone platform (altar). He then inserted the stick in his hand into the ground. Immediately after, the icy cold power of this space surged to a terrifying level. A powerful gust of wind blew against Hun Han's face, hurting him. Under the influence of this wind, Hun Han's emotions also became somewhat agitated.

Following that, earth-shattering explosions echoed throughout this underground space. As the surroundings were all stone walls, the sounds reverberated, deafening.

"Come here!"

After about ten minutes of intense fighting, the Exploding Heaven Gang leader's voice, lacking its usual vigor, came from ahead.

Hun Han rejoiced and took two steps at once, arriving in front of the Exploding Heaven Gang leader, asking, "Was it successful?"

"Mm."

The Exploding Heaven Gang leader gasped for air, his face extremely pale, and sat on the ground. Ice-blue Dou Qi surged around him, and his hair and beard were covered in tiny ice crystals. In his palm, ice-blue Dou Qi grasped a small, two-inch-long, green ice-crystal-like snake. The snake was almost transparent. This must be the origin of the Nine Nether Wind Ice.

"This space is sealed, with only dead wind. Otherwise, with my cultivation, I really wouldn't have been able to deal with it. This beast has become even more powerful after twenty years compared to last time." the Exploding Heaven Gang leader remarked emotionally.

Last time? Could it be that the Exploding Heaven Gang leader had previously absorbed the Nine Nether Wind Ice before him?

"Master, are you... alright?" Hun Han looked at the Exploding Heaven Gang leader, who now gave the impression of being on his last legs.

"I'm fine. Don't just stand there, hurry, show me your absorption." the Exploding Heaven Gang leader urged with longing.

Exotic Water is even rarer than Exotic Flame. When a Fighter possesses Exotic Water, what kind of transformation will they undergo? The Exploding Heaven Gang leader was immensely expectant.

"Mm."

Hun Han nodded. They were underground, so there was no need to worry about external interference. He touched his Storage Ring and took out all nineteen hundred and eighty-nine talismans he had drawn earlier.

So many Blood Rock Talismans seemed to make the temperature of the surrounding space warm up slightly. Then, Hun Han took out a Jade Bottle from his Storage Ring and placed it on the ground. Instantly, a faint warmth melted the Xuan Bing on the ground into a small pool of water.

"What is this?" the Exploding Heaven Gang leader asked curiously.

"Fire Spirit Flame Spring, a necessary item for absorbing Exotic Flames," Hun Han explained.

Immediately after, Hun Han took out a thumb-sized stone emitting a nine-colored glow from his Storage Ring. It was smooth and lustrous like jade, without any flaws. Inside the stone's core, nine different colored lights slowly wriggled, like tiny, living worms. This was the wondrous item Hun Han obtained through Time Sign-in – the Nine-Orifice Spirit Nurturing Stone.

Spirit Nurturing Stones are extremely rare heavenly treasures in the world. They have only a very small chance of existing within high-grade Nurturing Stones. Their value already exceeds Eighth Grade Pills. As for the Nine-Orifice Spirit Nurturing Stone, it is a treasure among treasures. Such a wondrous item can only possibly exist within high-grade Nurturing Stones of nine different colors.

Hun Han's soul power drifted out, igniting all the talismans around him. Instantly, streams of talisman light fell upon Hun Han. Shortly after, nineteen hundred and eighty-nine talismans had gathered on Hun Han's body. The talismans wrapped Hun Han tightly, making him look as if he were wearing a blood-red armor.

The talisman energy of the Blood Rock Talismans not only protected Hun Han's exterior but also penetrated his skin. Even his bloodline had crimson talisman patterns.

This was merely the first step in absorbing the Exotic Water.

"Master, I'm starting!" Hun Han reminded him.

"Good. To prevent it from erupting again, I need to restrain it. Extend your hand and grasp its origin. Do you understand how to absorb it?" the Exploding Heaven Gang leader asked sternly.

"I understand!" Hun Han nodded slightly.

"Since that's the case, let's begin!" the Exploding Heaven Gang leader instructed.

"Okay."

Hun Han nodded, extending his palm towards the origin of the Exotic Water. His palm, enveloped by talismans, grasped the small ice-crystal-like snake.

Hiss hiss hiss

The ice-crystal-like snake struggled violently, emitting streams of cold air that froze the talismans on Hun Han's palm into powder. It was like firecrackers going off in the arena, with crackling sounds echoing endlessly.

Not enough energy, so let's compensate with quantity.

Originally, one would need a Fourth Grade Pill or a Fourth Grade Talisman to approach the Exotic Water. Now, Hun Han didn't have Fourth Grade talismans or pills, so he had to win with sheer numbers.

Watching the talismans being broken one by one, Hun Han raced against time and swallowed the snake in one gulp.

As the icy snake entered his abdomen, an extreme cold power erupted within Hun Han's body. The talismans layered on his meridians were successively frozen into powder by that extreme cold power. Even Hun Han's meridians had begun to show speckles of ice crystals. Once all the talismans were broken, Hun Han would instantly turn into an ice sculpture.

Subduing Exotic Flames and Exotic Water was inherently a risky endeavor.

Seeing this, Hun Han opened his mouth and drank the Fire Spirit Flame Spring from the Jade Bottle in front of him in one gulp.

The Fire Spirit Flame Spring possessed the same miraculous effect as the Ice Spirit Cold Spring. Its entry into his body slightly improved Hun Han's internal condition. Hun Han rejoiced inwardly and quickly gathered his focus, guiding the tiny ice crystal to circulate slowly within his body.

All of this happened within a single second.

"Little fellow, it's been three days."

The Exploding Heaven Gang leader sat in front of Hun Han, gazing at him, who was enclosed in a blue-green light barrier, and murmured to himself, "It seems I won't live to see you emerge from your cocoon."
