Wanbao Lady

Chapter 453: Kneading the Earth

Chong Fan looked at the clay sculptures on the surrounding tables and gently placed his hands on them, feeling the textures on them and the breath of the passing of time.

He even knelt beside the mud pool and used the tools beside him to dig out some spiritual mud and mold it into shapes.

His expression was focused and calm.

Fuluan stood quietly by the side, not disturbing them much, but her palms were slightly clenched with her sleeves, watching all this without blinking.

Time passes minute by minute.

Gradually, Chongfan seemed to enter a state of ecstasy. There was nothing else in his eyes except the things in his hands. He was even unaware of the passage of time.

In a trance, a strange feeling came to her mind, as if her soul had left her body and was floating lightly. When she went from being unfamiliar at the beginning to being proficient and completely molded a clay figure, the trance suddenly reached its peak.

At this moment, she seemed to see another scene.

Just like when she broke through the bottleneck before, this time, her perspective was also in another body, as a first-person perspective. But she could only watch, not control.

I saw that the owner of the body was also kneading the clay sculpture, adding various things into it from time to time, with gentle and skillful movements.

What’s strange is that its lower body is not legs, but a long snake tail.

Not long after, a lifelike clay figurine appeared in his hand, and then he struck it with rays of spiritual light.

After a while, the clay figurine gradually turned into flesh and blood. From the outside, it looked no different from a human. But once it opened its eyes, its flaws were exposed.

There was no other reason, his expression was too stiff. He looked like a puppet, even the cats and dogs on the street were much more agile than him.

"Alas." The owner of the body only sighed softly, and then said something in an ancient and difficult language.

Chong Fan, who was in the first person perspective, naturally understood the meaning of the other party's words.

she says:

As expected, if one only uses spiritual mud and magic, it is ultimately just a puppet without any intelligence and cannot be considered a real living being.

Hearing this, Chongfan was suddenly shocked.

This scene... could it be the time when Ninja Ninja created humans from clay? But it looks like the result is not so good?!

In the past, when I broke through the bottleneck, it was fine if I "possessed" my past life in my memory.

But why would it "possess" this person this time?

Could it be that the truth is really as she thought? !

Just at this moment, a man with a blurred face found a place and sat down casually, as if he was a family member or friend, not at all shy.

But its appearance is clearly that of a human with a snake tail!

The man's mouth moved as if he was saying something, using the same ancient and difficult syllables, but this time Chong Fan couldn't understand what the other party meant at all, as if he was listening to a foreign language.

As the man finished speaking, the owner of the body smiled and said, "In that case, I am not creating a living being, but refining an instrument like you! Although instrument spirits can be born in instruments, they are either born over a long period of time or have extraordinary backgrounds. Even the top-level puppets with their own will are created by us with a lot of spiritual thinking. They do not have the ability to give birth to offspring, so they can only be regarded as individual cases."

Hearing this, the man said something else, his tone serious and solemn.

The owner of the body nodded, "I know that too! Although the road to rebirth is difficult, I also want to give it a try! In a way, we are the same. I think you should understand me better."

The man hesitated for a while, and finally nodded helplessly.

"Unfortunately, it is easy to form a physical body, but it is difficult to form a true spirit. My cave is empty except for two puppets that maintain the operation of the cave. I don't know when a real living being will be born..."

The owner of the body laughed to himself, looking at the large mud pool in the center. After a moment, he muttered to himself, "I always feel that I am missing some opportunity..."

......

in the real world.

Chongfan suddenly opened his eyes, only to find that he was still holding the little clay figurine in his hand, with almost no movement.

"I...what happened just now?" She looked at Fuluan and asked.

But when he met Fuluan's eyes, he was stunned for a moment.

Fuluan was seen holding one hand tightly and the other hand tightly grasping the sleeve. An unknown emotion was faintly rising around him, and he was no longer as casual and calm as before.

She had only seen such vivid emotions once before, when he confirmed that Gu Duo was the companion of the ancient Wild Beast.

Perhaps it was because he heard her question that Fuluan finally reacted, quickly restrained his expression, and returned to his usual calmness and composure.

"You just suddenly closed your eyes, as if you had entered a mysterious state. I didn't want to disturb you, so I just watched quietly. Less than a quarter of an hour passed."

After saying this, she almost couldn't wait to ask: "I wonder what you just saw?"

Hearing this, Chongfan was also in a trance, "I, just now I seemed to see Nuwu and Taishang..."

Hearing this, Fuluan nodded, suppressed her excitement, and said, "Then let's go look somewhere else!"

"it is good."

-

The Wanling Palace is too large, and there are too many pavilions and towers in it.

Another half an hour later, when he entered an inner room called "Refining Pavilion", he discovered something different.

In the center of the Refining Pavilion, there was a large bronze tripod, which was exquisitely carved but revealed the vicissitudes of time.

"This item is called the Qiankun Ding, and it is the cauldron used by the goddess Nüwu to refine treasures. Although she is not as proficient in this as the Great God Taishang, she has also produced many wonderful treasures. When the goddess Nüwu left, she left this cauldron behind. I gave it to the Great God Taishang, but before the Great God ascended to heaven, perhaps in order to leave an old item to accompany the Wanling Palace, it seems that he did not take it with him." Fuluan explained.

Hearing this, Chongfan slowly stepped forward and gently stroked the patterns on the bronze tripod. She saw that it was decorated with grand patterns of the sun, moon, mountains and rivers, as well as flowers, plants, insects and fish. It was exquisite and majestic, ancient and heavy, and she couldn't help but flash a hint of surprise in her eyes.

As I looked at it, the patterns on the tripod seemed to have a suction force, and that trance-like feeling came back.

......

This time, just like last time, it was a first-person perspective on Nuwu's body.

There was a pile of top-grade spirit stones piled up next to the goddess with a human body and a snake tail. The whole room was colorful and sparkling because of these spirit stones.

Under the Qiankun Cauldron, the fire was raging, and the owner of the body kept putting top-grade spirit stones into the cauldron to refine them. His movements were so fast that it seemed as if he was anxious.

After a while, the spirit stones in the cauldron turned into pools of pure liquid, but because of their different properties, they showed different colors.

But in general, perhaps because the five elements of spirit stones account for a large proportion of the total, the liquid in the cauldron roughly presents five colors: green, yellow, red, white, and black.
