Chapter 1375: God-Given Object
Jiangnan's gaze instantly locked onto the water droplet-shaped pearl held in the old white bear's paw!
It radiated an extremely dense spatial energy!
What the heck was this thing?
A space-type spirit pearl? Since when did spirit pearls come in water droplet shapes?
At this moment, even the well-traveled Jiangnan was stunned for a sec!
Before he could even sense it properly, the water droplet pearl was already crushed by the old white bear!
A wild surge of spatial energy burst forth like a dam breaking, violent to the extreme!
In an instant, it blasted the surrounding kilometer of space into fragments!
Space rifts danced wildly like demonic snakes!
The old white bear's arm was instantly torn into shreds of flesh!
Jiangnan: !!!
Holy shit!
Even Jiangnan's reaction speed barely made it in time!
A cut appeared on his cheek, and a terrifying suction force erupted from within!
The frenzied spatial energy acted like a meat grinder, tearing apart everything within range!
Startled, Jiangnan grabbed the bark rope on the old white bear's belly!
Spatial displacement!
The next instant, Jiangnan and the old white bear suddenly appeared in midair several kilometers away!
Meanwhile, the snowball that had flown far off was displaced there instead!
It was instantly shredded into pieces!
The ground was torn open with vicious gashes, and even after more than ten seconds had passed!
The kilometer-wide space rifts still hadn't healed!
Such horrifying power made everyone freeze in their tracks!
Lan was sweating profusely on her forehead!
(乛ㅂ乛‧̣̥̇) "Aha～ahaha～good thing I acted in time, I almost got swallowed up!"
Hey hey hey, take it easy, Brother Jiangnan!
I'm just a lowly Silver-rank, swapping that far is a bit ridiculous!
But she still forcefully explained it away!
The old white bear was also shocked—he hadn't died?
Even the god-given object couldn't take them out? What the hell were these food sources?
How could they be this strong?
And they even saved him?
The old white bear, clutching his shoulder, panted heavily!
"Restoration!"
Two white beams of light fell, healing the wound on Jiang Tianqing's face and regrowing the old bear's ruined arm!
Xiao Bai anxiously shouted!
(Oథ㉨థO) "Stop fighting! Everyone stop! They're good people!"
Seeing that these humans hadn't killed a single bear and even helped heal his wounds!
The old white bear's hostility finally dissipated. He raised his neck and let out a roar!
The polar white bears finally stopped fighting, collapsing on the ground unable to move, their stomachs growling with hunger!
By now, Jiangnan's eyes had completely changed shape, turning into little money signs!
(๑¥﹃¥)
What kind of treasure was that water droplet pearl? It definitely wasn't a space-type spirit pearl!
But it contained an even more violent and massive amount of spatial energy than a spirit pearl!
The power of its explosion was comparable to an attack from a Dao Heaven-rank space-type expert!
Was this pleasant surprise so sudden?
Jiangnan grabbed the little rabbit bastard and pulled out a big handful of small ginseng, handing it to the old white bear!
"Here～have some! Good stuff! Replenish yourself!"
After showing the white bears how strong he was, he naturally had to give them benefits!
First the stick, then the candy, right?
The old white bear was stunned—damn, this human could even speak beast language?
Xiao Bai eagerly came over: "Dad! Eat it! This grass root is awesome!"
Half-believing, the old white bear took the small ginseng and stuffed it into his mouth!
His skinny bear body rapidly swelled under the supplement of vitality energy!
Like a balloon being inflated, he quickly turned into a round, chubby bear!
Over 80 meters of imposing bear frame finally regained some dignity as a Starlight-rank spirit beast!
The old white bear stared blankly at his own paw—though still hungry!
His body was no longer weak; it was strong and powerful!
What… what kind of magical grass root was this?
At this moment, not only was the old white bear shocked, but the hundreds of polar white bears present all let out exclamations!
Pairs of green-glowing eyes turned toward Jiangnan, while the old white bear looked at him as if he were a savior!
Σ(๑Ŏ(エ)།།།) "Do you have more of this grass root? Can you share some with my brothers? We…"
Jiang Tianqing grinned!
(ૢ⁼̴̤̆◡⁼̴̤̆ૢ) "Don't worry, I have as much as you want. The main reason we came here is to rescue you polar white bears from your current predicament!"
"Seeing you starving like this pains me deeply! I will make sure you sweep away your hunger and be yourselves again!"
"However, I just need you to help me with a tiny little favor!"
The whole conversation was in beast language—Jiangnan, who always ate little biscuits, was now completely fluent in beast language!
Beside them, Katerina stared wide-eyed at Jiang Tianqing!
∑(°口°๑) "She… she… they're chatting?"
Xia Yao nodded matter-of-factly!
(•́.̫•̀) "Of course! What's so strange about that? As a mentor of the Pioneer Academy, how could she not know beast language?"
Katerina's eye twitched: "The mentors at the Pioneer Academy really do know everything!"
The old white bear lunged over and grabbed Jiangnan's thigh!
(๑꒦ິ(エ)།།།) "Don't say just a tiny favor—if you can keep us from being hungry anymore, you can even be our boss!"
Jiangnan facepalmed—a Starlight-rank beast reduced to this state, what a joke!
Jiangnan grabbed the little rabbit bastard and pulled out a huge pile of small ginseng!
He called Xiao Bai over: "Come on～Go distribute these to the brothers!"
Xiao Bai was ecstatic, took the ginseng, and started handing them out!
The polar white bears, replenished with vitality energy, one by one regained their round, chubby forms, finally looking like bears again!
The old white bear watched this scene with tears streaming down his face!
He hadn't seen this sight in years!
Jiang Tianqing cleared his throat twice!
(๑ớกờ) "Ahem～So! Do you have any more of those water droplet pearls? I'm quite interested in them, hehe～"
The old white bear was surprised: "You mean the god-given objects? We still have three stored in our tribe. Originally, they were meant to fend off the falcons and get food!"
"Since you need them, I'll give them all to you. But there are still many brothers in our den…"
Jiangnan grinned slyly: "Don't worry about that! I won't short you on food!"
"Where did you get those god-given objects?"
Before the old white bear could answer, the sound of massive cannons came from the distance!
The extreme cold snowstorm began to move, rapidly approaching them!
The old white bear's face darkened: "Damn! Did the falcons notice our large-scale movement?"
"Let's go! Back first!"
Led by the old white bear, the polar white bears sprinted across the snowy plain!
On the way, Jiangnan learned that this extreme cold snowstorm didn't blow continuously!
It only formed during the silver-winged wind falcons' hunting season. Relying on the snowstorm,
they could even devour every living thing on the surface of the snowy plain!
And the falcon groups weren't just this one!
There were at least three more falcon groups of this scale within the spirit ruin!
The polar white bears had just weathered one wave of the snowstorm, and during the calm in the eye of the storm,
Big White and Xiao Bai came out to fish, hoping to get some food, and that was when they encountered Jiangnan's group!
The next wave was coming soon, since the storm's eye wouldn't stay in one place forever!
The group arrived at a towering flag-shaped iceberg!
Digging through the snow at the foot of the mountain, they finally entered the polar white bears' lair!
Inside the lair, there were still three or four thousand polar white bears starved into shriveled shapes!
To conserve energy, most were hibernating!
Quite a few had fallen asleep and never woken up!
To sustain the race's survival, the precious food they obtained was mostly given to the strongest ones, so they could maintain basic mobility!
They went out to hunt food for the entire race!
Jiangnan had already imagined how miserable they were, but not to this extent—bullied to such a state by those wind falcons!
When the white bears waiting at home saw Old White and his son returning round and plump, they were shocked!
Jiang Tianqing naturally opened his purse generously, pulling out massive amounts of small ginseng to replenish the white bears' vitality and restore their combat strength!
After all, he still needed them to help him work!
With so many bears, in the spirit ruin they were a considerable fighting force!
All the bears were immensely grateful to Jiang Tianqing!
And the old white bear kept his promise, taking out the three treasured god-given objects from home and handing them to Jiangnan!
Everyone gathered around, staring curiously at the water droplet pearls in Jiangnan's hand!
(๑•̌～•̑) "What exactly is this thing? It feels so dangerous…"
Everyone had witnessed the power of the water droplet pearl earlier!
Jiangnan swallowed hard: "It's definitely not a space-type spirit pearl. There's no spirit skill inside! And the spatial energy inside this droplet pearl is way too wild!"
"It's a bit… like the spatial energy in a dimensional gap, but highly compressed!"
Lan frowned: "If the spiritual energy in a space-type spirit pearl is like water, then the energy in this droplet pearl is like boiling hot oil!"
"I wonder if it can be absorbed. If…"
Before Lan could finish, a violent spatial energy burst exploded from Jiang Tianqing's arm!
"Bang!"
Everyone was splattered with blood and instantly petrified on the spot!
(‧̣̥̇≖‸≖‧̣̥̇(≖﹏≖‧̣̥̇(≖‧̣̥̇_≖‧̣̥̇)…
Jiang Tianqing's entire arm was blown into a bloody mess, gushing blood, with bones snapped!
Jiang Tianqing's eye twitched: "Probably… probably can't absorb it!"
Xiao Mila quickly cast a restoration, and his arm recovered!
Katerina wiped the blood off her face: "Are you crazy? You're a strength-type ability user, why are you absorbing that randomly? Of course it can't be absorbed!"
Jiang Tianqing looked shaken—he had only absorbed a tiny bit, but he couldn't suppress the wild spatial energy, and his arm exploded!
It wasn't that it couldn't be absorbed, but his current body simply couldn't withstand such violent spatial energy infusion!
He wondered if in his One Thought Asura state, he could endure it!
But judging by the power of the crushed one, this thing was still good stuff!
"Old White! Where did you guys get these?"
The old white bear scratched his head: "Found them on the snowy ground. Every time after the extreme cold snowstorm, if we're lucky, we can pick some up!"
"Because of their amazing power, we always try to go and collect them. There's a southern area with big cracks, where we find more."
Jiangnan swallowed hard, his eyes gleaming!
