Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack-Chapter 1138 - 1118: Thousand Saint Ice Spirit Flower
Seeing the two small humans, the Giant Spirit Bear was surprised by their weight, almost too much for him to bear.
However, this also strengthened his resolve to train them well. Heavy people are always good people.
Hey, hey, hey, where did you get this evaluation standard? Besides, if you want someone heavy, you should look at the fat ones!
The Giant Spirit Bear considered himself very heavy but was a kind beast who never bullied the weak, always challenging those stronger than himself. However, Big Black and Xiao Hei were existences he dared not surpass; the pressure from their bloodline was innate.
He realized it was a pity he hadn’t yet sparred with those two old buddies after this cultivation session.
The Giant Spirit Bear picked up a large Stone nearby, lifted it up, and completed a hundred rounds before stopping, placing the Stone in front of the two people.
Qhianqhian swallowed hard, even though her arms could lift it, could she lift such a huge Stone?
Moreover, it was difficult even to lift her hands now...
As her gaze swept across the stone forest behind the Giant Spirit Bear, Luo Qianqian’s eyes suddenly focused, staring intently at the white flowers blooming on the vine behind him.
On dark green vines covered in white ice crystals, there were a few scattered leaves in two shades of white and blue, with each leaf about the size of an adult’s palm, three petals forming a single leaf. A leaf takes a hundred years to form, and only after seven leaves does the flower bud appear. After three hundred years of time passing, a flower finally blooms.
The flowering period lasts about ten days and has no medicinal value...
But the petals are the only essential ingredient in the critical pill recipe she holds.
With a glint in her eye: "It’s the Ice Vine Thousand Spirit Grass! And it’s blooming with the Thousand Saint Ice Spirit Flower!"
Tianyi had naturally heard Luo Qianqian mention the names of herbs that might appear in this extremely cold place over the past few days, and this one was the most important, as it was essential for the Lifespan Extension Pill that Luo Qianqian had to refine.
No matter one’s talent or constitution, a person can only take the Lifespan Extension Pill once in a lifetime, making a high-quality one a rare and unattainable existence.
She had a supreme pill recipe in her hands, possessed by no one else, yet no one had ever succeeded in making this elixir. It was all theoretical until then.
The ingredient was a rare, unattainable item, and the other ingredients were not worth mentioning.
"I must get up! I have to get up!" Luo Qianqian’s face was full of determination, for this was something she cared about deeply.
She wanted her family, but for the entirety of her life, whether Old Master Luo could have his lifespan extended was still a big question mark, considering his age.
"I must get up!" Luo Qianqian shouted forcefully, suddenly standing up, leaving two deep pits under her feet.
"Qhianqhian..." Tang Tianyi frowned at Luo Qianqian’s actions, though he too was struggling—his soft armor restriction was apparently more challenging than Luo Qianqian’s hand and foot restraints.
"It’s a man’s duty!" Watching Luo Qianqian’s slow yet determined steps, he frowned slightly, clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, leaned against a tree, and repeatedly stood and fell, determined to keep trying...
Walking forward with excitement, Luo Qianqian was unaware of Tang Tianyi’s situation. Her face flushed red as her steps became heavier, her movements visible to the naked eye as slow.
The Giant Spirit Bear looked at the two with confusion, glancing at the Thousand Saint Ice Spirit Flower in the direction Luo Qianqian was heading, a flash of understanding in his eyes—so that’s why...
But he also wondered, why did it seem like moving was so difficult for them?
They were just fine earlier—had they gotten injured?
Yet the spirit of these two was a good sign, giving him hope for his Transformation Pill!
Looking at Luo Qianqian’s strange movements, it seemed like she was carrying some weight?
With the Thousand Saint Ice Spirit Flower almost within reach, Luo Qianqian breathed a sigh of relief. Despite her trembling hands, she tried to lift her arm but was powerless, only managing to raise it to waist height...
She could only turn back to look towards Tang Tianyi’s direction, her face full of grievance.
Tang Tianyi noticed the gaze and looked up, seeing Luo Qianqian holding a big tree tightly, her large watery eyes betraying her, and his mouth curled into a smile. In this state, Luo Qianqian indeed resembled a harmless little deer, causing a nameless heat to surge through his body, holding the tree trunk and standing up despite the snow cascading down from his support.
Step by step, following in Luo Qianqian’s footsteps, he too moved forward.
The Giant Spirit Bear watched in confusion, not disturbing them, but observing silently, examining the depth of the snow under his feet compared to these two people, as some things became evident without explanation.
Struggling to move beside Qian Xi, they looked at the tall flower about two meters above the snow surface, equating to three meters for them...
Instinctively, Luo Qianqian’s sight was drawn to the Stone that the Giant Spirit Bear had used as a teaching tool, gulping down her nervousness.
She dared not hope for communication with the Giant Spirit Bear, but applying leverage principles, knowing rolling friction is less than sliding friction, moving the Stone shouldn’t be particularly daunting.
After pondering briefly, she extended a hand to Tang Tianyi: "Do you have a shovel and a wooden plank?"
"Yes..." Don’t ask him why he had these things; he didn’t know either.
Tang Tianyi took out a shovel, walked toward the Stone, and marked a line in the snow with it.
Given its large footprint, the Stone wasn’t as sunken as they were.
With her hands hanging at her sides, Luo Qianqian held a shovel in one hand and dragged a wooden plank with the other.
Excavating a channel in the snow in front of them, they wouldn’t need much force to move the Stone, and with the wooden plank, the Stone wouldn’t sink too deep.
When her hands couldn’t lift, she resorted to feet and arms, managing to dig a path before nightfall, laying down the wooden plank, placing a small Stone behind the large Stone, and positioning the shovel under the large Stone with the small Stone above, forming an angle with the horizontal plane.
Then loudly called to Tang Tianyi: "Is it ready on your side?"
"Yes, hold on, I’ll move to the side first." Tang Tianyi replied. Honestly, it would have been better if he did the digging, given his limbs were still free; he just needed to maintain an upright posture, much like military training. But Luo Qianqian insisted he not move, afraid something on his hands would contaminate the flower: "All done!"
Upon hearing this, Luo Qianqian used all her strength to fling herself onto the shovel.
With a ’crack,’ the wooden handle of the shovel broke...
