As soon as Lin Ye finished speaking, Lin Xuan immediately took out the bronze mirror in his hand without hesitation and released the remnant soul of the Vast Sea Saint King.
The spring, viewed from above, appeared to be only the size of a millstone. However, once past the barrier and into the space below, it became clear that the spring was large enough to accommodate more than ten people.
Upon entering the barrier, Lin Xuan clearly felt something sweep over him, as if it were trying to discern his presence.
He had a sudden realization.
If none of the people descending are descendants of the Lin Clan, they may not be able to pass through the barrier.
As soon as the remnant soul of the Vast Sea Saint King was released, Wu Liang, who was standing nearby, was taken aback.
This remnant soul...
He stared at the remnant soul that Lin Xuan had released, his eyes filled with astonishment.
A remnant soul, ancient and powerful indeed.
Even though this remnant soul was on the verge of dissipating, it still exuded a chilling aura. With just a little thought, one could tell that this remnant soul, at its peak when it possessed a physical body, must have been an unparalleled powerhouse.
Whose remnant soul is this?
When the Vast Sea Saint King emerged, he was also utterly shocked.
Needless to say, the surrounding spirit medicine were amazing, but the spiritual spring itself, shrouded in milky white spiritual liquid, was enough to leave him in awe.
Even though he had no physical body and only a soul, he could still feel the extremely rich Spiritual Qi in that spring.
It can be said that even though he had traversed the entire Endless Sea, he had never seen such a precious spiritual spring.
After all, treasures are rare.
Treasures that affect the soul are extremely rare and coveted by cultivators, making them incredibly difficult to obtain.
Fortunately, no one in the entire Luo Heaven Domain knew that such a spiritual spring existed beneath the Bifang Tribe.
Otherwise, the Bifang Tribe would never have survived to this day.
You should know that there are probably no treasures in the entire Eastern Continent that can compare to such a spring.
Although he left the bronze mirror, his remaining soul showed no signs of dissipating again.
On the contrary, in those few breaths, he felt his soul become more solid.
That feeling of being on the verge of disappearing at any moment is completely gone.
It was only at this moment that the Vast Sea Saint King truly believed that Lin Xuan really had a way to bring him back to life!
"Excellent! Excellent!" Vast Sea Saint King exclaimed excitedly, his emotions surging.
If one could live, of course no one would want to die.
He looked at Lin Xuan and said solemnly, " Lin Xuan, thank you for taking care of things for me."
"Such a great favor, I, Gu Hao, will surely repay. If I can reshape your human body and bring you back to life, I, Gu Hao, swear to the heavens that I will serve in the Sword Pavilion for 30,000 years, at the beck and call of the Pavilion Master, without a single complaint!"
He spoke with conviction, his eyes showing no hesitation, only complete trust and gratitude.
Lin Xuan was also somewhat surprised.
This was the first time he had learned the true name of the Vast Sea Saint King. Before, he had only been referred to as the Saint King or the Nineteenth Imperial Prince. So, the princes of the Vast Sea Saint Dynasty were surnamed Gu?
However, that's not the important thing. What's important is that the Vast Sea Saint King actually made a special oath!
He had always trusted the character of the Vast Sea Saint King and had no intention of forcing anyone to make any oath.
Lin Xuan also believed that anyone who saw their own potential would never regret joining his faction.
However, the Vast Sea Saint King added an extra layer of insurance to the agreement between the two...
The voice of his ancestor, Lin Ye, echoed in his mind, tinged with a slight sigh, "Not bad, this person is grateful and repays kindness; he is worth befriending."
Almost as soon as the ancestor finished speaking, the water in the entire spring began to boil.
Countless streams of milky-white spiritual liquid, formed from Spiritual Qi, rose like extremely dense fog, frantically converging towards the remnant soul of the Vast Sea Saint King floating in mid-air.
It's more accurate to say it's a flood than a convergence.
It surged into his ethereal, translucent soul.
Wisps of mist gradually solidified his body, and his once nearly dissipated soul became powerful and tangible at a visible speed.
Lin Xuan flicked his wrist, and another wisp of remnant soul escaped from his sleeve. As if drawn by an attraction, it floated into the air and subconsciously began to absorb the Spiritual Power in the air.
He glanced at Wu Liang beside him and said softly, "We can temporarily part ways and find a place to cultivate."
This is what his ancestor had just told him.
If we want to completely solidify the soul of the Vast Sea Saint King into an indestructible entity, it will probably take more than a month.
They could have easily cultivated here instead of waiting idly.
Wu Liang nodded.
He also knew that the process of repairing the soul was by no means easy, and might take several months or even half a year.
Naturally, it was inconvenient for him and the Pavilion Master to leave, so cultivation was the Higher Vehicle choice.
The two sat cross-legged and began absorbing the excess Spiritual Power in the air to advance their cultivation.
This sitting lasted for a whole month.
A full month has passed. Above the Spirit Spring, the Vast Sea Saint King has his eyes half-closed, and his soul has almost condensed into a complete physical form. Below him, in the Spirit Spring, there is a lifeless body immersed in the spring. Its appearance is five parts similar to the Nineteenth Imperial Prince Lin Xuan saw in the secret realm.
This is the body that Lin Xuan ordered the Bifang Tribe members to forge using the spiritual items in his Storage Bag within this one month.
It took a lot of time and the treasures Lin Xuan collected—including many rare and precious materials originally intended as heavenly materials and earthly treasures for the Xiaolu —to finally refine the body of the Vast Sea Saint King that would walk in the mortal world.
When this body was first created, it was faceless.
Immersed in the spring water, with the assistance of the ancestor Lin Ye using Secret Method, and connected with the remnant soul of the Vast Sea Saint King, his body gradually began to resemble the Vast Sea Saint King over the course of a month.
As the two become more and more compatible, their souls resonate more deeply, and their physical appearances gradually resemble the true form of the Vast Sea Saint King.
The same was true of Cheng Jing Ting, the holy son of the Heavenly Talisman Sect.
However, his body has changed by eight or nine parts compared to before.
Lin Xuan stood quietly beside the spring, lost in thought.
This difference in strength is likely due to Cheng Jing Ting's inherent weakness and the fact that his soul is not as powerful as that of the Vast Sea Saint King. Therefore, reshaping him would be much simpler for Cheng Jingting than for the Vast Sea Saint King.
"That's about it."
Just then, the voice of his ancestor Lin Ye echoed in Lin Xuan's mind.
His voice carried a hint of fatigue, which made Lin Xuan a little worried.
Ancestor, are you alright?
"It's nothing."
Lin Ye said with some relief, "It was just a little exertion from using Secret Method. You'll recover with a little rest. But you two little ones can leave now."
"The water of this Spiritless Spiritual Spring is now crystal clear, and its milky essence has been completely consumed. The treasure's effect has been exhausted. This little fellow with such a low cultivation level has obtained an unknown fortuitous opportunity this time. And that little bird next to you, it even resonates somewhat with the Spiritless Spiritual Spring, it has gained a great deal."
"However, that kid from the Vast Sea Saint Dynasty you want to save, although he now has a body, won't recover so easily."
Lin Ye sighed softly.
"Being gifted is a good thing, but in this case, it's holding me back."
"This kid is too talented, and he was very strong in life, but he suffered too much damage. After leaving this place, he will probably only be able to recover more than 30% of his strength, and it will be difficult for him to advance any further."
