Urban Immortal Cultivation Supreme

Chapter 848: An Unexpected Gain



The blue pearl was extremely restrained at this moment, emitting only a faint glow.

Pop

With a slight sound, strands of deep blue light overflowed from the pearl, entangling behind it, and ultimately, a shadowy figure composed of faint blue light appeared in the void.

The silhouette made of blue light was very vague, showing only a rough outline, but even so, it was clear that the figure was a strange creature with a human upper body and a fish lower body, with the blue pearl floating at the figure's abdomen.

This bizarre creature was quite large, standing four zhang tall, seated midair, bowing its head, with a cascade of fine hair hanging down, shimmering with blue light, like a waterfall pouring downward.

The shadow lowered its head, appearing to gaze at Zhu Bufan.

Through such a gaze, because the shadow was extremely ethereal, although one could not make out the expression on its face, this deep gaze still produced an indescribable sense of heartache and vicissitude.

Gazing intently, it was impossible to tell how much time had passed, when the shadow reached out and gently tapped the pearl.

The pearl whirred into rotation, and a small-sized blue storm rapidly formed around it as its center.

Logically, this tornado-shaped storm should have had tremendous suction power, but oddly, nothing was disturbed, not even snowflakes light as feathers.

However, one thing was furiously drawn up by this storm.

That thing was Zhu Bufan's blood.

Due to the freezing cold, the wounds on Zhu Bufan's body had initially frozen over, but now they cracked open again, a hazy mist of blood extracted by an unknown force from all over Zhu Bufan's body, his originally iron-blue face now even paler.

Watching a blood mass roughly the size of a bowl gather at the eye of the storm, the blue shadow once again pointed gently.

Following this gesture, the rapidly spinning pearl suddenly stopped, and the bowl-sized blood mass also floated in front of the shadow.

The pale blue shadow that had been still until now suddenly sprang into action at this moment.

Those massive hands moved rapidly, and with the change of fingers, streaks of blue light shot into the bowl-sized blood mass.

The blood mass pulsated rapidly, emitting a weird glow of blood, following the changes of the hand seals, it finally transformed into an exceptionally complex, yet deeply mysterious rune.

With the appearance of the rune, the blue pearl trembled lightly as though it was extremely fearful of the blood-colored rune.

"Zha!"

A formidable sound echoed, the majesty of heaven and earth converged from all directions.

Accompanying this sound, the hand seal in the shadow's hand also fully formed, pointing directly at the blue pearl.

The blood-colored rune surged with light, then suddenly contracted, turning into a single point of blood light that shot directly into the blue pearl.

After absorbing the blood-colored rune, the deep blue of the pearl now intermingled with a hint of blood light. It detached from the shadow's abdomen and instead flew towards Zhu Bufan.

At the same time, the blue light that made up the shadow rapidly surged towards the pearl, the shadow quickly shrinking and becoming transparent.

Yet, the shadow's movements did not cease, beckoning towards a wooden box not far away, and the Holy Heart Fruit housed within flew to its side.

Boom…

The purple Holy Heart Fruit exploded under an inexplicable force, turning into a deep purple fog that enveloped Zhu Bufan. Zhu Bufan's body also began to float off the ground, completely encased by the fog transformed from the Holy Heart Fruit.

The fog merged into Zhu Bufan's body without his control, even taking away streaks of Yin Energy with each breath he took.

His originally pale face turned crimson in a flash after absorbing the Holy Heart Fruit, as if blood was about to brim over.

The Primordial Qi contained in the Holy Heart Fruit was too overpowering; it wasn't something Zhu Bufan could withstand.

It was conceivable that if this continued, it wouldn't be long before Zhu Bufan would burst from the overwhelming Primordial Qi of the Holy Heart Fruit.

However, this scenario did not occur as the already ethereal figure's hands started to dance again. The Hand Seals this time were much more complex than before, sending out arcs of light with each movement that shot into Zhu Bufan's body.

As the arcs of light entered his body, the abnormality caused by the absorption of the Holy Heart Fruit gradually vanished. Yet, another type of bizarre transformation eerily took place.

First was the hair; Zhu Bufan's jet-black hair slowly faded and turned sea blue, a vibrant blue like the ocean. Then came his appearance; what was originally a handsome visage slowly contorted into a beauty that could overshadow the sun and moon. It carried a hint of Yin Energy but became even more enchanting against the backdrop of his blue hair. Lastly, his skin was densely covered with fine blue scales, so minute they were almost imperceptible.

By the time Zhu Bufan had ceased changing, a thousand arcs of light had been infused into his body. Even the phantom figure unconsciously wiped its forehead, exhausted from casting thousands of Hand Seals.

A thousand Hand Seals consumed a significant amount of Blue Light. After the phantom completed, the huge apparition shrank to a normal human size, and its radiance was extremely faint, barely revealing ripples of water. It also started to be rapidly absorbed by the Blue Pearl.

The palm gently swept over Zhu Bufan's cheek, and finally, the supporting Blue Light completely collapsed, rushing into the Blue Pearl, including a trace of shining Spirit Light.

Once the Blue Light had completely vanished, the Blue Pearl began to slowly sink down, entering Zhu Bufan's forehead and disappearing from sight.

With the disappearance of the Blue Pearl, the mutations on Zhu Bufan's body rapidly receded, and in the blink of an eye, he returned to his normal appearance.

The mountain wind still howled, with the cold becoming even more biting.

Fortunately, this was the very outskirts of the Endless Ice Field, where Fierce Beasts were virtually extinct, and even common wild animals rarely appeared, ensuring that if Zhu Bufan wasn't killed by the Poison Demon, he wouldn't end up in the belly of a beast.

Every so often, Zhu Bufan would be woken up by the cold.

"Ah! Was it a dream?"

When Zhu Bufan awoke, it felt as if he had had a very long dream, constantly patting his body with his hands.

"No harm? I'm actually unharmed!"

Feeling no abnormalities in his body, Zhu Bufan shouted with joy.

Quickly, Zhu Bufan calmed down and turned his head to look at the bodies nearby, especially the body of the Poison Demon.

Zhu Bufan was not brainless; although the previous scene was unbelievable, he was certain that it did indeed happen.

Looking at the Poison Demon's corpse, Zhu Bufan snorted coldly and casually picked up a stone from the side, hurling it vigorously.

Of course, Zhu Bufan knew these experts must have valuable possessions, but the earlier event made him even more cautious, fearing another mishap.

After a while, with no movement, Zhu Bufan finally got up and used a dry branch to gather all the items together.

Just as Zhu Bufan was erasing his tracks, snowflakes suddenly scattered down from the sky.

"Ha ha, heaven is truly helping me!" Zhu Bufan cheered, quickly retracing his steps to return.
