Chapter 28: Ancient Tomb Spirit Veins

  Wu Ming's Spring Sunshine Melting Snow Qigong is divided into "Inhaling Character Formula" and "Exhaling Character Formula".

  "Xī zì jué" had been used several times before, and he had successfully absorbed the internal energy of three people.

  And "Tou Zi Jue" can return true energy to others, which is still the first attempt for Wu Ming.

  Xiao Long Nu had never learned the Chun Yang Rong Xue Gong, Wu Ming worried that reversing the true Qi might bring her suffering, so he thought for a moment and decided to teach her this skill first.

  In Wu Ming's heart, Little Dragon Girl and Old Lady Sun were the people he trusted most in this world. Apart from the secrets of the Book Immortal System, he wouldn't intentionally hide anything else from them.

  "Sister, I'll teach you the Spring Sun Melting Snow Formula first. You practice it right away and then we can work together to absorb the true energy."

  The little dragon girl frowned and said: "Do I still need to learn this? Can I not learn it?"

  Wu Ming knew that Little Dragon Maiden disliked this type of martial art, so he deliberately smiled and provoked her: "The Spring Sun Melting Snow skill is very profound. Even if you want to learn it, you may not necessarily be able to master it."

  Xiao Longnu's heart warmed up, but on the surface, she gave Wu Ming a cold look and scolded: "You don't have to use words to provoke me, you just want me to learn from her, so go learn from your Shifu then."

  "Heh heh......" Wu Ming smiled foolishly, but in his heart, he was especially happy.

  However, what happened next left Wu Ming stunned - the clever and talented Little Dragon Girl couldn't grasp the secrets of the Spring Sun Melting Snow technique no matter how hard she tried.

  Xiao Long Nu was very depressed and frowned: "Shidi, am I really stupid? You've told me so clearly, but I just can't learn..."

  "Wu Ming hastily grasped Little Dragon Girl's hand and comforted her, saying: 'Sister, who says you're stupid? If you were stupid, then there wouldn't be any smart people in the world. Maybe I overlooked something...'"

  As he spoke, Wu Ming suddenly thought of something. The Spring Sun Melting Snow skill was an extraordinary divine skill that he had obtained before entering the world of this book, and yet this skill did not exist within the world of the book itself. Could it be because of this reason that the characters in the book were unable to grasp this skill?

  Wu Ming was thinking this way when the Book Immortal system in his mind suddenly responded.

  "You guessed it right, the world in the book is based on the books you've read, and there are certain specific rules that exist. Except for you, the creator, all other characters cannot violate these rules."

  Wu Ming suddenly understood that this meant that except for him, Xiaolongnü and Sun Buppo would never be able to learn the Spring Sun Melting Snow skill, an ultimate technique that shouldn't exist in the world of the Condor Hero.

  After understanding, Wu Ming also cut off his previous thoughts and apologized to Little Dragon Girl: "Sorry, Shifu, I thought about it carefully, this Chunyang Rongxue Gong seems not suitable for women to cultivate, this may be the reason why you can't learn."

  Little Dragon Girl let out a sigh of relief, shook her head and smiled: "Nothing, if I couldn't learn it then I won't learn it."

  "Heh heh, as long as Master doesn't blame me, I'll be at ease."

  "You little scamp, when have you ever been afraid of me, your elder sister, getting angry?"

  The two people have developed a deep brotherly and sisterly affection for each other through their daily interactions over the past year, but more importantly, they also have a subtle romantic feeling in their hearts.

  It's just that Wu Ming is still young, and Little Dragon Girl is restricted by the rules of the sect, so neither of them has made it clear.

  Next, under Wu Ming's arrangement, the two came to the Cold Jade Bed, sat cross-legged facing each other, stretched out their palms and pressed them together. Then, led by Wu Ming, they channeled their internal true energy through the "Tou Zi Jue" back into Little Dragon Girl's body.

  Actually, the best way is to use the back or chest's key points for circulation, but "inhale character" and "exhale character" have very different requirements. The "exhale character" requires a higher level, it must be in direct contact with the skin to take effect.

  But Wu Ming was very clear that letting Little Dragon Girl bare her chest and back in front of him was almost an impossible task, so he could only retreat and seek secondary options.

  Even if it was just a simple palm-to-palm touch, Wu Ming still felt Xiao Long Nu's shyness and rapid heartbeat.

  Although his heart was racing, Wu Ming knew this wasn't the time for romance. He took a deep breath and said, "Sister, focus your mind and calm your spirit, pay attention to the true energy I'm sending over."

  "Uh-huh, I see." Little Dragon Maiden nodded and quickly calmed her mind, her rapid heartbeat slowly returning to normal.

  "Note that I'm starting now." Feeling almost ready, Wu Ming secretly used the "Tou Zi Jue" of Chun Yang Fusion Snow Skill, slowly releasing his true energy from his body.

  Wu Ming's true energy was the pure and original pre-heavenly energy that had been refined through the Spring Sun Melting Snow technique. This true energy had a very unusual property, as if it could merge with any other true energy. Little Dragon Girl received this gentle stream of true energy without any obstruction, and under the effect of the Nine Yin Scripture, quickly transformed it into a strand of soft and gentle internal energy.

  At first, Wu Ming didn't dare transmit too quickly, fearing that Little Dragon Girl's body couldn't adapt to his true energy.

  But after trying it out, Wu Ming soon discovered that he could actually see the internal meridian situation of Little Dragon Girl when he returned his true energy to her.

  Through introspection, Wu Ming easily discovered the truth that the two true energies in Xiaolongnv's body were quickly merging, which also made him very excited and involuntarily accelerated his speed.

  After speeding up, Wu Ming suddenly felt a chill from the Cold Jade Bed that was even colder than usual during his cultivation. It actually contained a huge amount of spiritual energy, which was the best nourishment for cultivating the Spring Yang Melt Snow Technique.

  Because Wu Ming had been cultivating on the Cold Jade Bed for a year, he had already gotten used to automatically absorbing this cold air for his own use. Even if he didn't intentionally activate the Absorbing Technique, his body's natural reaction would still do so automatically.

  The lower body "absorbs the character", the upper body "spits out the character". Wu Ming, at this moment, surprisingly perfectly combined both, and quickly grasped the key to it, making absorption and exhalation reach a perfect balance.

  Furthermore, Wu Ming thought that if he absorbed more and spat out less, he could not only cultivate himself but also help others cultivate.

  But this cold jade bed is not very large, and the cold air contained in it should be limited. How can it keep flowing endlessly?

  It seems that Lin Chaoying had her reasons for choosing to place the Cold Jade Bed here back then.

  Because he had read a lot, Wu Ming naturally understood the concept of spiritual veins, and he guessed that the spiritual vein here in the ancient tomb should be a cold vein, otherwise it would not have been able to support the Cold Jade Bed for so many years.

  Heh heh, if the spiritual vein really exists deep within this ancient tomb, then cultivation will be much simpler from now on. Wu Ming thought that he could use the spiritual vein to accelerate Old Lady Sun's cultivation and became even more excited.

  It is said that "Disaster lurks within good fortune; good fortune hides within disaster."

  Wu Ming's discovery, however, would later bring catastrophic disaster to this ancient tomb, which was something Wu Ming could not have predicted at the time, or else he might not have done it.

  One in and one out, Wu Ming almost played the role of a battery, while Little Dragon Girl was the biggest beneficiary of this round of returning true energy.

  As time passed, the true energy in Little Dragon Girl's body became more and more concentrated, and the Nine Yin Manual also broke through a bottleneck, reaching a new realm.

  After the breakthrough, Xiaolongnü felt that her inner strength was full and abundant, more than double what it was before. She was excited and moved, and couldn't help but say: "Disciple brother, that's enough, you can stop now."

  One stretch and one release, the way of literature and martial arts.

  Anyway, there's plenty of time later, Wu Ming also understood that it was not necessary to rush for the time being, so he nodded and stopped.

  After putting down her palm, the little dragon girl was inexplicably moved and couldn't help but hug Wu Ming, anxiously asking: "Younger brother, you gave me so much internal energy, are you tired? Is it alright?"

  Feeling Xiao Longnu's concern for him, Wu Ming was especially happy and smiled as he shook his head: "Not tired at all, being able to help Shizi is a particularly happy thing, how could I be tired?"

  "You're just showing off." Little Dragon Girl smiled and poked Wu Ming's forehead with her finger, that scolding look made Wu Ming's heart flutter, he couldn't help but lean in close to her face, lightly pecked it, then quickly jumped out of bed and escaped.

  "Ah...... what are you doing?" Little Dragon Girl's face turned red with shame and anger, while also feeling an inexplicable heart tremble.

  Wu Ming then smiled and stuck out his tongue: "Sister Master, I was just so hardworking, consider this my reward."

  "You rascal, Sister will never bother with you again."

  "Sister, I was wrong, I shouldn't have secretly kissed you just now."

  "Little Dragon Girl hastily said: 'You'd better stop talking, or else I really won't bother with you anymore.'"

  Looking at Little Dragon Girl's blushing and angry appearance, Wu Ming felt very amused. He quickly pleaded: "Okay okay, I won't say it, I won't say it, Master Sister, you can't ignore me."

  The little dragon girl raised an eyebrow and glared at Wu Ming, saying: "You want me to reason with you? Fine, come here."

  "Wu Ming deliberately took a step back and said: 'Sister, what are you going to do?'"

  "Come here," said Little Dragon Girl sternly, "when I call you, you come."

  When Wu Ming walked past, Little Dragon Girl pretended to give him a heavy slap but actually didn't use any force.

  "Oh no, it hurts so much..." Wu Ming, although a year older, was almost as tall as Little Dragon Girl, but still had a childish air about him, and could still continue to be playful and cute.

  "It serves you right, let's see if you dare next time, humph..."

  Actually, Little Dragon Girl wouldn't really ignore Wu Ming, she was just secretly kissed by him and couldn't show her face, now taking the opportunity to punish him to give herself a hidden excuse.

  After the two of them made a fuss for a while, Wu Ming finally told Xiaolongnu the truth about the spiritual vein under the Cold Jade Bed. Xiaolongnu was extremely shocked after hearing it, and under Wu Ming's explanation, she became even more aware of the importance of this spiritual vein to her cultivation.

  ……

  Through Xiaolongnv's attempt and the discovery of the ancient tomb's spiritual pulse, Wu Ming quickly thought of a good way to speed up Sun Bao's recovery.

  That's using the endless cold energy of the underground spiritual veins, then through the Spring Sun Melting Snow Skill refining and transforming it, slowly transmitting it into Grandma Sun's body, enhancing her cultivation, and better helping her rekindle the damaged skin vitality.

  Time was running out and Wu Ming could no longer afford to hesitate, so he quickly took action.

  Unlike Little Dragon Girl, Granny Sun's acceptance ability is relatively poor.

  However, this did not affect Wu Ming's determination to complete his mission.

  For over a dozen days, Wu Ming had spent almost all his time on the Cold Jade Bed, and Old Lady Sun's face also underwent new changes nearly every day.

  On the last day of the task deadline, when Wu Ming once again refined a strand of cold air and slowly input it into Sun Bao's body, a crisp prompt sound suddenly came from his ear.

  "Ding Dong!"

  "Congratulations on completing the Book Spirit System task [Restore Appearance]."
