Chapter 637: Chapter 610: The Great Grinding Disc
Three months later, on the plains behind the Main Peak of Hidden Spirit Island, not far from the place where Starcraft No.2 was refined.
A massive formation, shining with a diameter of a hundred meters, appeared in front of Elder Zhan Ling.
“Great Master, is this the formation meant to aid the restoration of my spirit essence?”
Zhan Ling stared at the dense array of runes in the formation, his eyes swirling.
“Yes, this type of array is very difficult to set up and the materials consumed are no less than that of an Immortal Tool.” Xu Fan nodded.
“No less than an Immortal Tool? Great Master, I, Zhan Ling, do not deserve it!” Zhan Ling exclaimed with emotion.
“It’s insignificant. As long as Elder Zhan Ling restores his spirit essence and becomes the Invincible Venerable, such expenses are justified.” Xu Fan reassured him with a smile.
Xu Fan made Zhan Ling stand at the center of the formation.
“Elder Zhan Ling, when the Great Battle starts, you will operate this Divine Skill. It will be painful, but you must endure.”
“It will be over in just one hour.” Xu Fan reminded.
“Come on, Great Master, what’s a little pain to fear?” Zhan Ling laughed heartily.
“All right, Elder Zhan Ling, brace yourself.” Xu Fan said, before activating the formation.
At this moment, the disciples idling around the plains noticed the situation and began to gather around orderly.
“Nobody enters the formation, or else you’ll be reduced to a bloody pulp, and I won’t be responsible for it.” Xu Fan instructed Pu Tao to announce.
As the formation was activated, Zhan Ling started operating the corresponding Divine Skill.
Suddenly, a miserable shout rang out from within the formation.
At this moment, Zhan Ling felt as if he was trapped in a giant grinding disc.
His meridians, flesh, spirit, and soul were all ground to pieces and thrown into the grinding disc, being ground and refined over and over again.
The incredibly piercing scream caused the faces of all the surrounding spectators to change dramatically.
“Great Master, what kind of formation is this? I cannot understand it.” Zhang Xueling who was walking beside Xu Fan asked.
“How come you’re willing to come out today?” Xu Fan asked Zhang Xueling, who had already broken through to the Foundation Establishment Stage.
“I came out to observe the Divine Skill and dissolve my cultivation bottleneck.” Zhang Xueling chuckled, exuding an open-minded stance for learning.
“It’s good to come out more often.”
“This is a Spirit-Restoring Array meant to restore cultivators back to their initial state of cultivation, so they can restart their journey in cultivating immortality.”
“It’s particularly suited for those who have strayed off the right path.” Xu Fan replied, squinting at Zhang Xueling.
Meanwhile, Zhan Ling’s screams hadn’t stopped.
“To restore one’s spirit essence, one must throw both body and soul into the giant disc, grind them to pieces, keep only their essence, and then recondense both body and soul.”
“The whole process is somewhat painful, but it’s not much of a problem.”
Looking at the still screaming Zhan Ling, Xu Fan suddenly felt puzzled. Why hadn’t he thought of creating a painless version of the process?
“Great Master, I think if Elder Zhan Ling’s Divine Sense is left outside, it could avoid the pain.” Zhang Xueling suggested after some thought.
Xu Fan clapped his hands and exclaimed, “Such a simple solution, why didn’t I think of refining the Divine Sense through a Divine Skill? That would ward off many dilemmas.”
“Excellent, from now on, you can provide several suggestions for the new Divine Skill Cultivation Methods in the Scripture Repository for me.” Xu Fan patted Zhang Xueling’s shoulder and said.
“As you wish, Great Master.”
At this point, Zhan Ling, who was still struggling in endless pain, had no idea that the ‘Spirit-Restoring’ method had already been revised.
An hour later, an egg less than half a meter high appeared in the middle of the formation.
“It’s been a success.”
Xu Fan dropped the formation and approached the egg.
“Elder Zhan Ling, you can come out now.” Xu Fan called.
“Great Master, do you have any children’s clothes?” A childish voice echoed from inside the egg.
“Haha, I’ve already prepared them for you, Great Master.” Xu Fan produced a Wanyi Ball out of thin air, made a small hole in the egg, and inserted it.
Before long, the egg cracked, and a child dressed in rich garments stepped out. His lips were red and teeth white, eyes clear, like a sacred child emerging from a painting.
A trace of Zhan Ling’s initial dominance was still discernible between his brows.
“Great Master, that wasn’t a bit painful, it almost killed me!” The child’s voice possessed an oddly mature vibe.
“Compared to the experiences Elder Zhan Ling has weathered, such a bit of pain would barely count, wouldn’t it?” Xu Fan tried to assuage him, with a hint of embarrassment in his tone.
“Now Elder Zhan Ling is like a blank slate, yet to be written by the universe. The path of immortal cultivation also lies at your feet.”
Xu Fan moved to present the recently refined ‘Spirit Realm Five Elements Plate’.
“Elder Zhan Ling, next is the Immortal Tool Sealing Ceremony.” Xu Fan stated.
“Will it hurt?” The child-like Zhan Ling asked with some fear.
“Not at all.”
Xu Fan assured him before activating the second array, directly establishing the ownership of the Immortal Tool, and sealing the Immortal Qi within Zhan Ling’s body.
“Elder Zhan Ling, do you want a few Jade Light Rabbits to take care of you for a while?” Xu Fan looked at Zhan Ling, amused by his boyish demeanor, and asked.
“No need, I have prepared the Grain Removing Pill and elixir for cultivation in advance. Once I get back, I’ll begin closed-door cultivation.” Zhan Ling was somewhat dissatisfied with his current appearance. He looked too cute, and that made him less intimidating.
“I will still send a few. Right now, Elder Zhan Ling is still a child and has become a mortal. This is the time for him to grow up; he can’t just live on Grain Removing Pills every day.” Xu Fan teased, turning to Pu Tao and ordering her to select a few Jade Light Rabbits skilled in caring for people.
“I will not disregard the Great Master’s kindness, then.” Zhan Ling glanced at his tiny body.
“I wish for Elder Zhan Ling to return to the Venerable Realm as soon as possible.” Xu Fan replied.
Not long after, a small-sized Spirit Boat transporting three human-shaped Jade Light Rabbits appeared before Zhan Ling.
“From now on, Elder Zhan Ling is your master. Make sure you serve him properly.” Xu Fan instructed the three human-shaped Jade Light Rabbit girls.
“As you command, Great Master.”
“Greetings, Master.” The three Jade Light Rabbits bowed to Zhan Ling.
Staring at the endearing child with a mature demeanor, the three Jade Light Rabbits’ eyes were filled with fondness.
“Great Master, I’ll return to training now.” Zhan Ling, feeling like he was reborn, was eager to resume his cultivation.
Xu nodded, “Go on Elder Zhan Ling, but remember to balance work and rest.”
The small-sized Spirit Boat then carried Zhan Ling away.
“Master, can having one’s spirit essence restored improve one’s skills?” Xu asked, noticing his disciple, Xu Gang, beside him.
“No, but compared to before, re-cultivating with the restored spirit essence would certainly be much more powerful.” Xu Fan replied nonchalantly.
“You don’t need to think about that. Just focus on your cultivation. It doesn’t matter if your skills are a bit lackluster, as long as your combat power is strong.” Xu Fan laughed.
“As you command, Master.” Xu Gang responded.
“Your performance has already greatly surpassed my expectations.”
“Just follow this sensation. In the future, all the so-called Celestial Favorites and Evil Geniuses will be trampled under your feet.” Xu Fan encouraged him.
