Chapter 1537

Chapter 1537: Chapter 1533: Collecting the Pearl Chapter 1537: Chapter 1533: Collecting the Pearl Shen Luo, upon hearing this, quickly stopped the Turn Sky Seal and his tightened expression relaxed.

After doing this, the last trace of spirit in the eyes of the blue-armored man disappeared, the broken body lost all of its spiritual light, and became completely motionless.

The spiritual light on the Purple Extreme Cold Jade Shield also scattered, and suddenly it transformed into countless purple powder, from which a thumb-sized purple crystal stone rolled out.

The scattered Purple Extreme Ice Flame suddenly started flashing intensely and then rapidly converged towards the purple crystal stone.

A few breaths later, a chicken egg-sized Purple Ice Pearl suddenly condensed into form, surrounded by a layer of purple ice flame, emitting a force of attraction.

All of the purple ice crystals inside the great hall melted away, turning into strands of purple cold air that converged towards the ice pearl and merged into it.

The cold aura that originally filled the great hall disappeared completely, as if it were merely an illusion.

Seeing this, Shen Luo showed a look of surprise and after a while, he came to his senses, dissolved the Golden Sword Array with a hand gesture, and the sword lights reversed like an ebbing tide, transforming back into ten flying swords, which returned into his body.

As the purple ice crystals disappeared, Zhao Feiji also regained his freedom, he looked quite unwell, and turned into a black shadow to fly back into the Qiankun Bag to cure his injuries.

Shen Luo's face turned pale for a moment, and his body swayed slightly.

The Golden Sword Array was powerful, but it also drained a lot of mana, and coupled with the activation of the Turn Sky Seal, the mana inside his body was nearly depleted.

“Cousin!”

Nie Caizhu also flew out of the Jade Purification Bottle and seeing Shen Luo in this state, she hurriedly recited spells, conjuring the recovery god's power of Mount Putuo – Delivering Sentient Beings.

A green light entered Shen Luo's body, and a green halo emerged around him, flashing rapidly.

With each flash, the surrounding Heavenly and Earthly Spiritual Qi converged rapidly once, transforming into mana and flowing into his body.

After nine continuous flashes, the green halo completely disappeared, and although Shen Luo's mana was not fully restored, it had recovered by a great deal.

“It's okay now, my mana has recovered a lot, so you were carrying the Jade Purification Bottle.” Shen Luo's face was no longer pale, looking at the huge bottle several zhang high.

“Master was afraid I might encounter an accident, so he let me carry the Jade Purification Bottle with me. However, I can't refine the prohibitions inside the bottle, so it can't unleash great power, it can only be used to hide and flee for life,” Nie Caizhu gestured, causing the Jade Purification Bottle to shrink quickly and flew into her hand.

“Being able to use it to flee for life is good enough, if we encounter a situation as dangerous as we just did, don't worry about me, immediately hide in the bottle. I have ways to save my own life,” Shen Luo stood up and said.

Nie Caizhu listened and nodded slightly.

Shen Luo walked slowly to the side of the blue-armored man, silent.

“This armored man is really powerful, and whether it's his combat methods or spiritual wisdom, he's no different from ordinary monks,” Nie Caizhu said.

Shen Luo bent down, picked up a fragment of the armored man's broken body, which was filled with special Yan Patterns, the Ghost Suppression Runes.

“It really is the Ghost Yan,” he muttered.

“Ghost Yan?” Nie Caizhu was startled.

Shen Luo briefly explained what Ghost Yan was, Nie Caizhu's eyes immediately darkened, clearly expressing her disdain for the Ghost Technique.

Shen Luo consoled Nie Caizhu a couple of sentences and then gazed at the silver light door, lost in thought.

Listening to the Armored Man's words, this place is called Tianyan Palace, could it be a secret realm of Tianji City? If that's the case, there's no need to worry–the people of Tianji City should be able to find this place very soon.

He flicked his sleeve, releasing a burst of golden light, and collected the Blue Armament. He decided to study it slowly later and then turned his gaze to the Purple Ice Crystal, a glint of eagerness in his eyes.

The extreme cold that had previously invaded his body had been absorbed by the Indigo Ocean Divine Technique, and this powerful chill had advanced his mastery of the technique significantly, leaving him only a half step away from reaching the fifth level.

If he could find a way to refine the Purple Polar Ice Pearl, his Indigo Ocean Divine Technique could definitely advance to the fifth layer and reach the Great Perfection Level.

But the might of the Purple Extreme Ice Flame was immense, capable of freezing any mana and objects it touched. Collecting such an item would undoubtedly be difficult.

Shen Luo flicked his sleeve, sending out a wave of blue light to envelop the pearl.

The Purple Ice Pearl flickered with purple light, and the surrounding blue light instantly turned into a block of ice.

Fortunately, he had anticipated this and had severed the connection between the blue light and himself early enough to avoid being affected by the extreme cold.

“Indeed, it's not easy to collect,” muttered Shen Luo, having tried another two methods to retrieve it, both ending in failure. One magical treasure was directly turned into a block of ice, its internal prohibitions thoroughly shattered by the cold.

“Cousin, do you want to collect this pearl? This ice pearl is truly remarkable; I can try using the Jade Purification Bottle,” Nie Caizhu volunteered eagerly.

“The Jade Purification Bottle is a treasure of Mount Putuo and should have no problem collecting this pearl. However, if you do that, you won't be able to hide inside it anymore. It's not worth sacrificing the essence for the peripheral; let's not do it,” Shen Luo said, shaking his head. Then he suddenly remembered an item and took it out–it was the mysterious stone box.

This object could collect things as dangerous as the Red Lotus Karmic Fire and the True Solar Fire. He had yet to understand the inner workings of the item, but perhaps it could also collect the Purple Polar Ice Pearl.

He activated the stone box, and a suction force emanated from within, wrapping around the Purple Polar Ice Pearl.

The ice flame on the Purple Ice Pearl lit up faintly as if trying to freeze the stone box, but after a few flickers, it died down.

“Indeed, it's useful,” Shen Luo was delighted in his eyes, and he increased the stone box's collecting power.

With a “whoosh,” the Purple Polar Ice Pearl disappeared into the stone box and lay there quietly, its extreme cold having no effect on the box.

“This stone box is more wondrous than I anticipated,” he thought to himself but did not go into research, instead tucking the stone box away into the Carefree Mirror.

Having done all this, Shen Luo then took out and collected the Silver Wolf Armor, which had been sealed in ice by Nie Caizhu.

Nie Caizhu also retrieved the Nine Heavens Immortal Silk and the Coiling Dragon Staff; the Immortal Silk was fine, but unfortunately, the staff had been chopped in half, its internal prohibitions mostly destroyed, rendering it unusable.

“Cai Zhu, are you adept at using short rods as weapons? I apologize for having you damage a magical treasure; I also have a short rod here, see if you can make do with it,” Shen Luo said as he took out a black short rod, the Devouring Element Magic Wand.

He had barely used this treasure since he got it; seeing that Nie Caizhu was proficient with short rod magical treasures, he decided to give it to her.

“A magical treasure from the Demon Clan?” Nie Caizhu sensed the aura of the rod and frowned.

“The Demon Clan are creatures of the Three Realms as well; there's no need to differentiate too much. And demon weapons are sharp, in some ways better than our Immortal Path magical treasures. The magic of this rod is profound; you can try it first, and we can talk more later,” Shen Luo said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Nie Caizhu took the Devouring Element Magic Wand and filled it with mana.

Instantly, black light surged from the Devouring Element Magic Wand, swirling around Nie Caizhu as if it had already been refined.

Nie Caizhu operated the Artifact Refining Secret and quickly sensed the supreme divine powers contained within the wand, a look of pleasant surprise appearing on her face.
