Douluo Continent: The Martial Soul Master Ball, Beauty, Please Stay!

Chapter 35 Tianmeng's Jealousy! I'm Not a Pet Anymore!

"Alright, let's get started. The people from the Earth Dragon Gate should be waking up soon."

Jiang Yi withdrew his hand and urged him with a smile.

On the system panel, Hyotei's previously stagnant intimacy level finally increased, breaking through the zero mark.

Although it wasn't much, it at least proved that she was slowly starting to accept him.

"Um.

Ice Emperor nodded, his gaze fixed intently on the Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow behind him.

With a whoosh, a jade-green scorpion tail emerged from beneath her skirt, its stinger sweeping across like a bolt of jade lightning, beginning to harvest the millennia-old mystic ice marrow within the cave.

Jiang Yi and Tian Meng took two steps back, making room for each other.

Their speed in mining the Xuanbing Marrow was definitely not as fast as Bingdi's, so they didn't go up and cause trouble.

Boom boom boom!

The entire Ten Thousand Year Ice Cave trembled, and strands of ice marrow were uprooted and then collected into the Master Ball by the Ice Emperor.

The energy of these ancient ice marrows is too strong; now is not the time to refine them.

One, two, three —

Hyotei kept waving her scorpion tail, her little face beaming with joy, completely abandoning her previous aloof demeanor.

"hey-hey----"

Her eyes lit up as she looked at those strands of ancient, mysterious ice marrow, and she felt an urge to kiss Jiang Yi.

They are truly our providers!

At the same time, Jiang Yi smiled knowingly as he watched Bingdi enter the tent with the Ten Thousand Year Profound Ice Marrow.

11%, 12%, 13%

With each strand of Xuanbing Marrow plucked, the number jumped up a little. This feeling was even better than when he collected the money himself.

A moment later, the last piece of Ten Thousand Years of Profound Ice Marrow was pulled out by the Ice Emperor, and the intimacy level stopped at 31%.

"There are forty-five in total! Half will be enough for me—"

Hyotei turned to look at Jiang Yi, her face flushed with excitement.

There was more Mysterious Ice Marrow here than she had imagined, and one piece of Mysterious Ice Marrow would be enough for her to survive the next tribulation. More than twenty pieces would be more than enough for her.

"Well, let's give the rest to Sister Tianmeng! Her essence was quite damaged by the Star Dou Great Forest before—"

Jiang Yi pondered for a moment, then extended his hand.

"it is good."

Hyotei responded, then looked at Jiang Yi's outstretched hand and instinctively leaned his head over.

"Hmm~"

She squinted comfortably, nuzzling her head against his palm, almost making a purring sound.

But the next moment, she froze.

wrong!

She is the great Northern Heavenly King, the leader of the Ice Jade Scorpion Clan, how could she make such a move?

"I...I'm going back now."

Hyotei's eyes flickered as she escaped from Jiang Yi's grasp, her voice carrying a hint of inexplicable panic.

Whoosh!

Before Jiang Yi could respond, she voluntarily crawled back into the Master Ball.

Inside the Master Ball, Hyotei transformed back into a small scorpion, perched on a piece of Xuanbing Marrow, its pair of silvery-white pincers tightly covering its eyes.

A faint pink tinge appeared on the turquoise carapace.

The Ice Jade Scorpion clan will never be slaves!

Inside the cave, having lost the nourishing chill of the millennia-old Xuanbing marrow, the icy spring water from outside began to flow in.

"Sister Tianmeng, are you angry?"

Jiang Yi looked down at his shoulder and saw Xiao Tianmeng pouting, looking rather sullen.

He smiled and reached out his hand, trying to comfort her, but Tianmeng simply turned her head away and let out a soft snort.

"No, I don't care about this bit of Xuanbing Marrow."

Her voice was muffled, as if she were sulking with herself.

Her cultivation had reached its limit, and these Xuanbing Marrows could only replenish some of her depleted energy; they were indeed of little use to her.

But as she watched Hyotei and Jiang Yi's relationship gradually improve, she, who should have been happy, felt inexplicably choked up.

I was here first!

Her golden hair fluttered slightly, much like destiny itself.

"That's because I have something else for you! How could I forget you, Sister Tianmeng—"

Jiang Yi looked at Tianmeng, who was feeling a bit sour, and chuckled as he reached out and ruffled her hair again.

Being a master isn't easy!

Fortunately, the intimacy level on the system panel hasn't decreased yet.

"real?"

Tianmeng's eyes lit up, and she no longer refused Jiang Yi's caresses. The resentment in her heart vanished instantly.

She knew it; she was Jiang Yi's true love.

"certainly."

Jiang Yi smiled.

"The water's flooding in, let's go! That thing's on the other side—"

The water was already up to their knees. Jiang Yi said no more, grabbed Tianmeng, and crawled out through the hole at the top.

Without the supply of cold air from the Xuanbing Marrow, the coldness of the spring water dropped significantly, and he successfully left the cold spring and returned to the bottom of the well.

Based on Nan Shuishui's instructions, Jiang Yi quickly found the underwater mechanism, while also keeping his mental detection active.

They can react immediately to any abnormal situation.

Rumble—!!!

The stone walls at the bottom of the well trembled slightly, rippling outwards, and a small door, just wide enough for one person, slowly opened.

The moment the door opened, a cold current, no less intense than a cold spring, surged out, but Tianmeng shielded it, and he only felt a chill on his body.

Jiang Yi went inside, and the interior became dry, as the spring water outside was kept out by the array.

"Sister Tianmeng, look."

Jiang Yi shook his wet hair, lifted Tianmeng from his shoulder, and walked together to the center of the cave.

The scene before her eyes caused Tianmeng to lose her composure slightly.

The entire cave is covered by a deep blue crystal, which is crystal clear and reflects a dreamlike light and shadow under the dim light coming through from the outside.

The scene was as if one were in a frozen, deep blue starry sky.

It's breathtakingly beautiful.

"These are—the Ice Extreme Divine Crystals that accompany the Myriad Years of Profound Ice Marrow."

Tianmeng murmured softly.

Although the Ice Extreme Divine Crystal is not as good as the Ten Thousand Year Profound Ice Marrow, it is not far off and is an extremely rare natural treasure.

The Mysterious Ice Cave where she had stayed before did not have any Ice Extreme Divine Crystal veins.

"That's right."

Jiang Yi chuckled and placed his hand on a nearby piece of ice-grade divine crystal, allowing the soul power of extreme ice to surge into it.

Click.

With a crisp snap, he cleanly and neatly broke off the piece of Ice Extreme Divine Crystal.

The Ice Extreme Divine Crystal fell into his hand and immediately released a faint, deep blue light, sometimes bright and sometimes dim, as if it were breathing with life.

"This is living metal."

He played with the Ice Crystal in his hand; it wasn't hard, but rather very flexible, and had a milky feel to it.

Holding it in his hand, he could clearly feel a hint of excitement emanating from deep within the metal.

Metals have a spirit!

This is naturally forged metal—at the very least, it should be a thousand-times-forged metal.

"...

'

Tianmeng blinked, looked at the beautiful crystal, and then at Jiang Yi.

This Ice Crystal is precious, but she can't just hold it and chew on it, can she?

Jiang Yi saw through her confusion and patted her little head. Tianmeng understood and obediently transformed into a little girl, being held in his arms.

"Tianmeng, have you thought about the future? You can't live on just the Purple Demon Eye, can you?"

Jiang Yi looked down at her and said earnestly.

Tianmeng's talent is really too poor.

Even after several transformations, from an ordinary ice silkworm to a Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, it still remained stuck in a limbo, neither good enough for high positions nor low enough for low ones.

Who would believe that a million-year-old spiritual beast could not even reach the level of tangible and substantial spiritual power?

Tianmeng: ————

She lowered her head and fell silent.
