Two hours later, the sun in the sky was already sinking towards the west—probably the west—like a skilled weaver, slowly and steadily weaving beautiful clouds into the sky.
The steam from the hot springs rose around them as Vishdair lay on the ground, his head resting on Lin Guang’s lap, his eyes comfortably half-closed, allowing Lin Guang to do his work.
His pair of black eyes were extrely focused, holding a small file that emitted a faint glow, gently rubbing on the two red horns of the silver-haired girl’s head, occasionally changing positions, like a top-tier sculptor.
Finally, as if finishing a masterpiece, he satisfiedly set down his file, running his fingers along the grooves of the horns as if sensing sothing: "Hmm, this should now be smooth."
Perhaps realizing Lin Guang was done, the little fox lying on the table nearby wobbly got up and walked over, its steps a bit unsteady, as if drunk.
This situation was likely due to the little fox’s internal malnutrition, disrupted flow of Ether, topped with absorbing a large amount of Fire Attribute Ether from the hot springs; because the Fire Attribute Ether here was rather gentle, it showed a ’dazed’ drunken appearance.
The little fox wobbled its body, slowly climbing onto Lin Guang’s shoulder, making a childish cry, seemingly also wanting Lin Guang to massage it.
"Don’t make trouble." Lin Guang raised his hand to rub its small head, "You just had a massage yesterday; too frequent isn’t good for your body."
"Ying—"
The little fox seed to understand his aning, softly cooing for a while before stopping, closing its eyes and pretending to nap again.
Looking up at the sky, Lin Guang mumbled to himself, "Considering the ti, it’s probably about ti."
Almost right after Lin Guang spoke, a rumbling sound was heard, sowhat like muffled thunder, seemingly coming from quite a distance, and shortly, two more rumbling sounds echoed.
So, Lin Guang gently laid the silver-haired girl’s head down, lifted the little fox off his shoulder, got up from the mat, and walked back into the hot springs.
Vishdair, with a puzzled expression, asked, "What’s happening?"
"The big one is coming."
"The big one is coming?!"
She jolted, suddenly waking up, sitting up at the edge of the pool, looking at Lin Guang with confusion.
Lin Guang didn’t look like he planned to go back to enjoy the hot springs.
He slowly paced in the water, going back and forth, his hands just soaking at his sides, seemingly perceiving sothing, while muttering to himself:
"Although I don’t have the Divine Hand, since it’s not a rigid ga world, the Celestial Doctor’s skills, coupled with Samadhi True Fire, should suffice."
Precisely.
In the previous life’s Spirit Battle Chronicles, if one possessed the Level One Talent Divine Hand, a special event could be triggered in the hot springs of the Fla Turtle Secret Realm.
When he first entered the hot springs, Lin Guang specifically used the Eye of Omniscience and Omnipotence to examine it. Although he couldn’t see much, the known information was enough to confirm that the truth here was the sa as he knew.
And during the several hours soaking in the hot springs thereafter, Lin Guang, relying on the Hand of Full Mastery, figured out the general situation.
In the next mont, Lin Guang stopped in the center of the hot spring, raised his right hand, and took out a small box made of Spirit-locking Wood.
Inside the box were several neatly arranged glass bottles containing liquids or powders of various glowing colors.
He opened the caps of the small bottles one by one with his left hand, pouring their liquids and powders into the hot spring, muttering to himself.
"Neon Fruit Essence."
"Three-Phase Heavy Water."
"Fla Surge Spring Water."
"Stream Fla Stone Powder."
"Tier Three Water/Fire Attribute Ethereal Crystal."
As the Spiritual Materials were added, red and blue intertwined in the spring water, spreading like a band of light.
It’s ti.
Putting away the empty box, Lin Guang lowered his gaze, fluorescence began to light up in his hand and pupils simultaneously as he took a deep breath.
The massage for Vishdair earlier just had his spirit in an active state, and the rising steam still contained components that could nourish his spirit...
Without any fatigue, his current status was excellent.
Heaven nding Record·Corrective ridian Opening Technique was activated once more.
In the sensory field of the Hand of Full Mastery, extrely complex information surged into his mind, yet he recognized it with his strong Spiritual Power, then integrated it with the experience and formula of the Corrective ridian Opening Technique.
And at this mont, both Vishdair and the little fox on the shore widened their eyes.
Lin Guang moved in the water, tracing seemingly random arcs, his slender fingers gliding through the water with an inexplicable rhythm and beauty, stirring the band of light from the Spiritual Materials.
With Lin Guang’s movents, the entire hot spring actually began to tremble and light up bit by bit, the surface water like boiling water, nurous undercurrents surging ceaselessly, yet astonishingly not a drop splashing out.
And threads of light like flowing water, as though sprouting branches, bit by bit, twined up Lin Guang’s hands, which emitted a faint glow, as if alive.
And his expression beca increasingly earnest.
The truth that the three great families had kept hidden for years was actually exceptionally simple.
This hot spring...
...is alive!
The next mont, with the gathering of radiance, the entire hot spring fully awakened.
The flow of water converged beneath the surface into a vague outline, like a natural elf, an essence of heaven and earth. It sotis gathered into the shape of a great fish, and sotis dispersed into almost invisible currents perceptible only through sensation.
With great interest, it followed Lin Guang’s footsteps and hands, gradually absorbing the spiritual materials he had just thrown in.
Lin Guang walked along the edge of the hot spring, his hands stirring the water with extre stability, tracing graceful curves as ripples spread, seeming to make it incredibly enjoyable and comfortable, eliciting a joyful watery hum.
[Water Separation Essence]
[Level 45]
At this mont, apart from enhancing observation power, the Eye of Omniscience and Omnipotence could only provide these two lines of information.
The true form of this hot spring turned out to be an extrely rare Essence Spirit Beast possessing both Water and Fire Attributes!
Earlier, Lin Guang and Vishdair were actually soaking alongside it.
And this is the true reason why the Golden Mountain Hot Spring has such excellent healing and recovery effects.
Lin Guang, of course, morized its information.
[Spirit Beast Traits: Hot Spring Body.]
An essence dwells within each of the ten volcanoes here.
It only opens once a year because during this ti, they absorb powers from beneath the Fla Turtle Secret Realm, becoming active for certain reasons.
Logically speaking, although the information from the Vessel Opening Technique can cover just about anything, the level gap is apparent, making it nearly impossible for Lin Guang to handle such a level of Spirit Beast. Even if he could, it wouldn’t have any practical healing use.
But right now, standing in this hot spring, it’s as if he has used so warti-exclusive restorative potion for Spiritual Power, restoring it rapidly every mont, coupled with the two portions of spiritual materials he poured in...
Anyway, it’s not for healing, this bit is more than enough to please the normally moody creature.
Many humans also enjoy getting a massage to relax from ti to ti.
Plus, these spiritual materials are all the favorite "snacks" of the Water Separation Essence. With the energy supplied by the volcano, they lack no "main course" but have a special liking for such treats not found in the Secret Realm that satisfy their taste.
Indeed, Lin Guang’s purpose is very simple.
And that is to please this Water Separation Essence!
Normally, in the Spirit Battle Chronicles, apart from fighting or quietly enjoying the hot spring, players have only one alternative: to pour spiritual materials inside, delighting the Water Separation Essence and getting it to share so power with the player.
However, if the player possesses the Divine Hand talent, paired with the investnt of spiritual materials, the best effect can be achieved. In the subsequent eruption, it may reward a great portion of that "sweet fruit" from beneath the ground to the player; indeed, if a player’s level and training are high enough, they might even coax it out.
And Lin Guang’s task is to replicate this feat.
Not having the Divine Hand doesn’t an it’s unattainable, for in the real world, anything is possible!
Lin Guang suddenly took a deep breath, and his technique changed - if earlier it was like flowing water, now the left hand seed to be burdened with sothing heavy, dense in force, while the right hand maintained its dexterity, distinctly unsynchronized.
Yet, strangely enough, his hands subrged in water suddenly caught fire.
Using his Spiritual Power and the Fire Attribute Ether in the water as fuel, the Samadhi True Fire began to burn slowly.
Splash——
The entire hot spring started to ripple, and the Water Separation Essence emitted an excited low hum, as if it had seen sothing delightful.
It was intensely intrigued by the fla in Lin Guang’s hands!
Dragging long red fla tails, Lin Guang’s hands were wholly focused on sorting through the Water Separation Essence’s body, performing a unique massage using this purifying and sorting ability.
No, perhaps it’s not just a massage; with the spiritual materials poured into its body, it could also be seen as an extraordinary "cooking" or "feeding" beyond common understanding.
Who says a chef can’t cook in the eater’s mouth!
Not to ntion a chef specializing in service!
Watching the spiritual materials gradually disappear in the water, absorbing, feeling the intertwining excitent and satisfaction of the Water Separation Essence flowing into his mind through his hands, even Lin Guang couldn’t help but curl his lips into a smile.
Ti passed.
As the last shimr of spiritual material disappeared, this unusual massage finally ca to an end.
In the center of the hot spring, at the spring’s source, Lin Guang halted his steps.
His thin arms trembled slightly, appearing sowhat strained, but his hand movents were astonishingly steady.
As the left hand wove light into threads, flowing like water, and the heavy, slow right hand erged from the water, both astonishingly reached his chest simultaneously before he clasped his hands together in a gesture of respect.
