Back in his room, Jiang Lan sat cross-legged on the bed and took the Ten-Thousand-Year Ice Marrow Shui Qinghan had given him out of the Starlight Blue Jewel Bracelet.
The pure-white pillar of ice radiated a terrifying chill. The temperature in the room dropped more than ten degrees in an instant.
Jiang Lan raised a hand and placed it against the white pillar. A bone-piercing cold immediately seeped into his palm.
Taking a deep breath, Jiang Lan slowly circulated his Soul Power, drawing out the essence of the Ten-Thousand-Year Ice Marrow as delicately as pulling silk from a cocoon. Drop by drop, it flowed into his body and merged with his Soul Power.
Before long, Jiang Lan felt his Soul Power fill him completely. A swelling pressure began to build inside him.
Clearly, his body had reached its limit.
If he absorbed any more, he might pass out.
Jiang Lan quickly pulled his right hand away from the Ten-Thousand-Year Ice Marrow, but the liquid inside had diminished by no more than a fingernail's worth.
I only absorbed that little? Looks like this Ten-Thousand-Year Ice Marrow will last me a long time. Jiang Lan studied it. Its size had barely changed.
After putting the Ten-Thousand-Year Ice Marrow back into the Starlight Blue Jewel Bracelet, Jiang Lan circulated his Soul Power again and focused on refining the essence that filled his meridians.
After just one full cycle, Jiang Lan could clearly feel his Soul Power rise by a notch. It was worth at least several days of ordinary cultivation.
With each successive cycle, he felt his Soul Power being filtered and purified.
And as he cultivated, his Soul Power was not the only thing absorbing the essence. His body, bones, meridians, and organs were taking in this supreme natural treasure as well.
