Chapter 148: Jade Toad Spirit Stone

  A milky white stone slab released waves of strange fluctuations, and the soul power between heaven and earth rushed in from all directions, being absorbed into it, a stream of energy could be seen flowing.

  This thing was something Yi Chen had never seen before, but it gave him a familiar feeling. However, no matter how hard he thought about it, he couldn't think of what this thing was.

  "Could this thing be the Yu Chan Ling Stone from the Qi Shi Lu?" After a moment of effort to recall, Yi Chen's face showed surprise.

  Qí Shí Lù is a book written by a strange person on the Longyuan continent, which records many kinds of spiritual stones and is revered by the cultivators of the Longyuan continent. The Yi family has one copy, and Yi Chen had flipped through it before.

  In that strange stone record, Yi Chen had seen this thing, a spiritual stone, because it looked very much like stalactite, and Yi Chen remembered it quite clearly.

  It's been many years since he saw them, and Yi Chen thought for a long time before remembering.

  But if Yichan didn't remember wrongly, according to the records above, Yu Chanling Shi looked like a gecko when it was formed, with a body made of jade and able to breathe like a living creature, exhaling extremely pure soul power.

  These are just rough embryos of Yu Chan Ling Shi and have not been fully formed. After a thorough examination, Yi Chen found that the stone soul in the spirit stone had also been completely absorbed.

  "What's going on? These unformed Yuanchenling stones, where have all the spirits in them gone?" Yi Chen's face showed a look of surprise.

  Ling stone is born with the energy of heaven and earth, just like living things, it has a special soul. Without a soul, ling stone can only be considered an ordinary stone. Moreover, these unformed jade ling stones without souls are fundamentally impossible to form.

  "It was all for nothing, I thought I had narrowly escaped disaster and gained a great advantage." Yi Chen shook his head.

  According to the records of Qí Shí Lù, if Yuè Chán Líng Shí can take shape, it will be able to continuously absorb and store the soul energy of heaven and earth.

  And after the soul force is absorbed, it will continue to be tempered in the Jade Toad, becoming extremely pure.

  Moreover, what's even more miraculous is that cultivators can directly absorb the soul essence within the Yu Chan Ling Stone, saving an enormous amount of time during cultivation. It is a treasure that is extremely hard to find in this world.

  "No, according to the records above, among the many rough embryos of Yu Chanling stones, only one can be formed, and after it is formed, it will absorb the souls of unformed Yu Chanling stones to strengthen itself."

  Suddenly, Yi Chen seemed to have thought of something, and an unusual expression appeared on his face.

  "Could it be that among these rough stones, a Jade Toad Spirit Stone has already formed, and it has absorbed the souls of these Jade Toad Spirit Stones?"

  With such a guess, Yi Chen began to take action and searched among the many Yu Chanling stones. Sure enough, he found a deep pit in one of them.

  From the traces above, there should have been a piece of Yu Chanling stone here. Moreover, what made Yi Chen even more excited was that there was also a very strong energy fluctuation in the pit.

  "This fluctuation should be the remnant of the Yu Chan Ling Stone, I don't know how long it has been, but this fluctuation is still so intense." Yi Chen was somewhat surprised, he had already confirmed that there was a formation of Yu Chan Ling Stone here.

  "The Yu Chan Ling Stone requires at least a thousand years, or even ten thousand years to form. It's a treasure that can greatly increase the cultivator's cultivation speed. We can't let it go so easily." Yi Chen was somewhat excited.

  Yuán Líng Shí is a rare spirit stone that possesses spiritual intelligence after taking shape. Before being tamed, they move like living creatures, searching for safe places.

  "If I'm not mistaken, according to the records mentioned above, after Yu Chanling's stone was formed, it wouldn't leave the place where it was formed too far away. It should still be in this dry and dark river." After searching around, Yi Chen didn't find anything, but there wasn't a hint of disappointment on his face.

  "When you come, then settle. When the car reaches the mountain, there must be a road." Yi Chen took a deep breath, although he still didn't know what this place was, but since it was an underground river, there must be an exit.

  "I really don't know if you're a treasure or a disaster." With the Holy Spirit Token still clutched in his hand, Yi Chen shook his head and put it away into his storage ring.

  Now Yi Chen is at the source of this dry and dark river, and there is only one passage to walk forward. According to the normal distribution of the dark river, there should be a way out in front.

  Yi Chen took a step forward, releasing his soul power to explore and search for the Yu Chan Ling Stone.

  "There is a faint suction force, and the soul power in front of us is extremely turbulent."

  After a period of exploration, Yi Chen discovered something unusual. The farther he walked forward, the more intense the fluctuations in his soul power became.

  "Could it be a formed Yu Chan Ling Stone?" Yi Chen's face showed surprise, and he held his breath as he continued to move forward.

  Yuán Chán Líng Shí already possesses spiritual intelligence. If it senses danger, it will flee like a magical beast. Yì Chén doesn't dare to be even slightly careless.

  Continue walking forward for a while, and suddenly there is a faint blue light coming from the front. Yi Chen looks closely and finds that there is a green toad with its big mouth open, sitting on a large stone.

  It was entirely emerald green, emitting a green glow, and its wide-open mouth exerted an extremely strong suction force, drawing in the surrounding soul energy which was all absorbed by it.

  "Is that the legendary Yu Chan Ling Stone?" Yi Chen's eyes widened, but it didn't look like a stone at all, rather like a giant toad magnified dozens of times.

  Without thinking too much, Yi Chen hastily hid behind a rock and carefully observed the Yu Chan Ling stone. He discovered that it could breathe like a living being, but what it absorbed was soul power, and what it exhaled were all impurities.

  "Capable of swallowing and refining soul force, it's undoubtedly the Jade Toad Spirit Stone." After carefully comparing it with the records in the Strange Stone Record, Yi Chen was already able to confirm completely.

  "The Jade Toad Spirit Stone can speed up cultivation, even super strong practitioners will be moved, and must get it."

  Unexpectedly being sucked into the vortex and coming here, I can still meet such a treasure. Yi Chen's eyes gleamed with fervor as he looked at the Yu Chan Ling Stone.

  But wanting to tame the Jade Toad Spirit Stone was not easy, Yi Chen carefully observed it for a moment before cautiously moving his position, preparing to launch an attack from behind the Jade Toad Spirit Stone.

  "To tame the Jade Toad Spirit Stone, one must first defeat it." Arriving at a distant location behind the Jade Toad Spirit Stone, Yi Chen's face turned solemn.

  Although I don't know how strong it is, a spiritual object born with the energy of heaven and earth will certainly not be simple.

  Taking a deep breath, Yi Chen mobilized his soul power and began to approach the Yu Chan Ling Stone, being extremely careful not to make even the slightest noise.

  "Quack quack"

  Although extremely cautious, Yi Chen obviously underestimated the spiritual object's perception ability. When he walked to within ten meters of the Yu Chan Ling stone, it seemed to have sensed danger and turned around to look over in his direction.

  The Yu Chan Ling stone saw someone approaching, and a pair of emerald green eyes flashed with a hint of warning.

  Not even close, yet discovered. Yi Chen secretly shook his head, but with the arrow on the string, he had no choice but to shoot. His soul power burst out like a fierce beast from the wilderness, quickly wrapping around both arms and rapidly charging towards the Yu Chan Ling Stone.

  "Quack! Quack!"

  Jade Toad Spirit Stone sensed the danger, opened its huge mouth and spat out a thick soul force, forming an extremely strong shield to protect it within.

  "Give me a break!" With narrowed eyes, Yi Chen clenched his fists and struck out with the force of a thousand pounds, heavily pounding on the shield.

  A deafening "boom" sound came out, and Yi Chen's blow did not shatter the shield. It just trembled slightly.

  "A sturdy shield." A look of surprise floated onto his face, Yi Chen's fists clenched again, and with an overbearing power, he struck out, heavily pounding on the shield. However, the place that was hit only showed crack after crack.

  "Whoosh!" A strange sound came from the belly of the Yu Chan Ling Stone, and then several strands of soul power burst out of its mouth, weaving together to form a huge toad that opened its big mouth and swallowed Yi Chen whole.

  Such an attack was unexpected, and Yi Chen felt his body being squeezed, making him feel extremely uncomfortable.

  "Explode!"

  His narrowed eyes flashed with a fierce light, and Yi Chen spat out a character. His soul power began to operate wildly, and he flipped his palm over, condensing a burst of energy that shot out in front of him.

  A loud muffled sound rang out, and that toad condensed from soul power was blown apart by Yi Chen.

  Without stopping his movements, Yi Chen quickly summoned the Tianyun Heavy Sword and then swung it rapidly towards the shield that Chan Chu had condensed.

  "Boom" under Yi Chen's control, the power of Tianyun Heavy Sword was extremely overbearing, instantly shattering that shield into pieces.

  "Wu Pin Zhong Deng Hun Ji - Meteor God Flame Slash, First Form!" Without any hesitation, Yi Chen frantically mobilized his soul power, pouring it into the Tian Yun Heavy Sword. With a loud roar, he slashed at Yu Chan's Ling Stone, creating a sonic boom in mid-air.

  Peng

  Yuè Líng's reaction was extremely fast, and the green light in Biyu's eyes flashed even more intensely. Her soul power burst out of her body like a mad dragon, forming a lotus throne above her head and releasing a brilliant light that enveloped her.

  Boom

  The Heaven-Defying Heavy Sword slammed down onto the Lotus Throne, instantly shattering it. At the same time, Yi Chen felt a powerful shockwave wash over him, sending him stumbling backward several steps.

  "The refined Yu Chanling stone actually uses so many offensive and defensive techniques." Yi Chenji was shocked, both hands simultaneously gripping the Tianyun Heavy Sword tightly.

  "I don't believe you, little master. You can block this move." With a calm smile, Yi Chen urged on the beast soul, and a steady stream of soul power surged out along the meridians, like an angry dragon drilling into the Tianyan Heavy Sword.

  A strong gust of wind stirred around, and Yi Chen's long shirt was blown with a loud slapping sound. A series of muffled sounds came from the Tianyan Heavy Sword, as an extremely powerful energy was gathering within it.

  Yuán Jiāo Líng Shí felt a strong sense of crisis at this time, although it could launch an attack and defend itself, but after all, it was only a formed treasure, its defensive ability was extremely limited.

  "Clang! Clang!" Two unsettling phenomena emerged from the belly of the Yu Chan Ling Stone, after which it made a shocking move, turning around and running away with considerable speed.

  "What's going on?" Yi Chen was slightly stunned, and after reacting, he quickly dispersed the energy condensed in the Tian Xuan Heavy Sword and chased forward rapidly.
