Chapter 743 - 310: Pure and Alluring—Isn’t This Exactly What You Want?
In the next moment, Ling Xiaobai’s figure had already vanished.
And in front of Chu Ning stood a tall, graceful young woman.
What made Chu Ning a bit dumbfounded was that the woman had an alluring figure, yet she was not wearing anything.
At this moment, the woman wore an innocent and naive expression on her face.
"Transforming into human form is really troublesome, I have to wear clothes. Master, do you have any clothes?"
"..."
Chu Ning looked at the scene before him, almost causing a nosebleed.
He forced himself to calm down, casually took out a clean white robe from the Storage Bag and tossed it over to her.
Ling Xiaobai was not shy at all, putting on the clothes right in front of Chu Ning.
Yet, the half-covered and revealing look made her seem even more pure and enticing.
Chu Ning finally snapped out of the shock of Ling Xiaobai being able to transform into a human.
He glanced at her and said lightly:
"Don’t tell me that every time you transform into a human, you will need to ask me for clothes.
Since you can take human form, a set of clothes shouldn’t be an issue, right."
"Hehe! Master is really smart."
The young woman giggled, and with a twirl of her body, the white robe Chu Ning had just thrown over flew back to him.
At this moment, she was already wearing a long yellow dress.
Chu Ning glanced at it and nodded in approval.
But his eyes still held a trace of curiosity:
"You’re just a Tier Five Demon Beast, yet you can fully transform into a human? Also, why choose this appearance?"
Ling Xiaobai blinked her eyes and said:
"I don’t know either, I just felt like I could transform, so I did.
As for why this appearance..."
At this, she looked at Chu Ning with a mischievous smile.
"Probably because it’s the image you had in your subconscious.
We signed a contract, so I can sense it a little."
Chu Ning fell silent for a moment upon hearing this.
Then he subtly changed the subject.
"If you appear in this form in the future, calling you Xiaobai doesn’t seem quite right. Do you want a different name?"
"Sure! Master, why not call me Bai Ling."
"Bai Ling, not bad!" Chu Ning looked at her and then said:
"By the way, in this form, can other Cultivators tell? Can you maintain human form consistently?"
"Unless people have some special Divine Techniques, they can’t see through me." Bai Ling laughed playfully.
"Also, I’ve discovered I’m quite adept at concealing my aura.
But I can’t maintain human form for long, it requires a lot of Magical Power to sustain.
So most of the time, I can only exist in my original form."
Chu Ning nodded and chatted with Bai Ling about her Divine Techniques.
Watching her display two types of Divine Techniques.
It was only then that Chu Ning remembered something and said to her:
"By the way, transforming into human form for so long must be tiring, why not revert to your original form?"
"Huh?" Bai Ling looked at Chu Ning with some puzzlement.
Chu Ning simply pointed to a corner of the courtyard.
"I accidentally acquired a Spiritual Clarity Fruit earlier, thinking of trying to accelerate its growth."
Bai Ling’s face turned slightly stiff upon hearing this.
"Master, this feels kind of embarrassing."
Chu Ning just looked at her with a calm expression.
Seeing this, Bai Ling finally understood the phrase that human Cultivators use, about an arm not being able to twist a thigh.
With no choice, her body flashed and she dissolved the human form, reverting to her original shape.
Then she went to the Spiritual Clarity Fruit Tree and squatted down.
"Now the growth of the Spiritual Clarity Fruit can truly speed up."
Chu Ning nodded in satisfaction, and then went over to perform the Profound Spring Youth Technique.
After Ling Xiaobai’s breakthrough, Chu Ning’s secluded cultivation returned to normal.
Especially after she could transform into human form and activate Talismans, Chu Ning simply made a batch of Magic True Talismans using the Profound Spring Youth Technique and handed them over to her.
The task of accelerating the growth of the Spirit Fruits was completely entrusted to her.
Chu Ning peacefully secluded himself in cultivation to improve his Cultivation Realm through Cultivation Technique.
Every six months, Xi Wenxia would still come.
Various Spirit Medicines would still be delivered on time, while the Ice Condensing Jade would only be delivered once every one or two times.
Moreover, the pieces were far smaller than the one Chu Ning initially purchased.
Chu Ning was not sure if it was because of changes in the Snow Peak Mountain Range that led to a decrease in Ice Condensing Jade.
Or because he hadn’t left seclusion.
He did not bother to dwell on it.
After all, the greater use of Ice Condensing Jade for him was to create Ice Shadow Sword Talismans.
And even though more is better, the amount he had was sufficient.
Due to Bai Ling’s breakthrough, for a long time, people remained curious about what kind of Spirit Beast Chu Ning had.
However, since Chu Ning had not left seclusion, this curiosity gradually waned over time.
And because of planting the Spiritual Clarity Fruit, Chu Ning indeed had no intention of going out.
Ten years passed in the blink of an eye.
That day, Chu Ning walked out of the Cultivation Room and into the Spirit Medicine Garden, his gaze penetrating the Restriction to look at the sky.
As words unknowingly spilled out of his mouth:
"Unknowingly, another ten years have passed in secluded cultivation, the more you cultivate, the more time it requires.
But even in the Cultivation Realm, ten years can indeed change everything."
A few days ago, when Xi Wenxia came to deliver Spirit Medicines, she made conversation with Chu Ning.
Half a year ago, the Snow Mist Valley had once again opened.
But no Cultivators entered it again, as the tragedy ten years ago left all Cultivators apprehensive.
Even though ten years have passed, many details are no longer discussed, yet the Demon Race’s attack is still remembered by all Cultivators.
Throughout these ten years, although conflicts between human Cultivators and Demon Beasts occasionally erupted in the offshore areas and the Snow Peak Mountain Range,
Ice Island Immortal City remained stable overall.
"Thinking about it, the thirty-plus years I’ve spent here in Ice Island Immortal City have been the most stable time in my cultivation."
Chu Ning smiled, habitually walking towards the Medicinal Garden.
At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared beside him.
It was the smiling Bai Ling.
"Master, good news, the Spiritual Clarity Fruit is nearly ripe!"
