Painting of the Nine Immortals Chapter 908 - The Sun Stone

After dealing with the pool of blood, Ling Xian tore apart s.p.a.ce and headed to the parterre.

Just as he was enjoying his journey, he suddenly frowned as he noticed a tall mountain below him.

“What a strange atmosphere… it seems like I have encountered another fortune.”

Ling Xian smiled and landed on top of the mountain peak. He slammed down with his right hand and split this mountain in half.

HOMMM!

The mountain collapsed after being split in half, revealing a strange gold stone.

This strange stone was completely yellow in color and was decorated with s.h.i.+ny, bright light. The gold heavenly light it emitted was refres.h.i.+ng and pure, making it look very mysterious and out of the ordinary.

“This stone… is the Sun Stone!”

After successfully identifying this stone, Ling Xian frowned. He felt surprised.

The Sun Stone was a high leveled heavenly stone. It is also extremely rare and hard to find. Whether it’s used for crafting or for array making, it is a high-quality material.

Therefore, the moment he recognized this stone, he smiled and decided to take it under his possession.

However, when he walked closer, he frowned. Because his soul had sensed that this stone is no longer a dead item, it has gained spirituality.

In other words, this Sun Stone may soon transform into the fairy kind.

The extremely rare but powerful fairy kind!

“Interesting. I cannot believe I would encounter a strange stone that is transforming into the fairy kind.”

Shock flashed across Ling Xian’s eyes. He remembered the Petal of Enlightenment living inside the Painting of the Nine Immortals. He couldn’t help but smile, “It looks like you are going to get a buddy.”

Then, he used his soul to inspect the Sun Stone that is spitting out heavenly light.

The fairy kind is a very strange kind and it is commonly known that they are very difficult to create and perhaps only one is born every thousand years.

But this kind is blessed by G.o.ds. Once it appears, it would contain talent that is out of the world and never seen before. As long as they don’t pa.s.s away half way through their life, they can easily turn into an undefeatable powerhouse who can peer down from above!

Ancient records state that there once was an Emerald Rock who turned into the fairy kind. The moment it was born, it was at the foundational level. It won battles throughout its lifetime and within hundreds of year, it had already succeeded in climbing up to the top and soaring above others!

This made it obvious how insane the fairy kinds are.

The Sun Stone was similar to the Emerald Rock – a high quality heavenly stone. This made it obvious just how successful this fairy being will turn out after it transforms into a fairy kind.

It will at least become a powerhouse.

Therefore, Ling Xian’s heart wavered. A future powerhouse! Who wouldn’t be tempted. Even those at the fifth level would go crazy over it.

However, after he inspected it using his soul, he softly sighed and frowned.

Because this Sun Stone is damaged. It naturally lacked spirituality. In other words, the chance of it failing its transformation was very high. It might turn into a dead rock.

“That’s a pity. The transformation process exhausts a high amount of natural spirituality. Yet this Sun Stone lacks it and finds it hard to endure.”

Ling Xian softly sighed. He stared at the s.h.i.+ning Sun Stone and his eyes filled with pity.

Though this Sun Stone was still dazzling, he knows that soon, it will dim down and become an ordinary rock.

The result was just as predicted.

After some time, this heavenly rock dimmed in color and at the end, light completely vanished from it.

Ling Xian sighed and shook his head at this. He exclaimed, “The fairy kind is extremely rare and we cannot find even one in a thousand years. What a pity.”

The fairy kind was one of the rarest kind but its capability was commonly agreed to be strong.

Even the fairy kind transformed from normal objects are stronger than normal and undefeatable. Let alone one transformed from this Sun Stone.

Many many moons ago, an Emerald Rock turned into a fairy kind. In the end, it dominated the heavens and was absolutely undefeatable. It marked itself in the history of Taoism.

Now, the same leveled stone, the Sun Stone, was also granted the opportunity to transform into the fairy kind. Yet due to a lack of natural spirituality, it had failed. Anyone would feel pitiful at this.

Ling Xian had the desire to help but not the ability to.

Though he had helped the G.o.d Astonis.h.i.+ng Array to transform, it was an array that was naturally powerful. This Sun Rock was damaged and was not an array, how can he help?

The Stream of Life might bring some spirituality to the Sun Stone. But sadly, he had given it all to the Tree of the Warming Soul.

“It looks like I have to watch it fail with my eyes open.”

Ling Xian softly sighed. But then he remembered, if the Sun Stone was lacking spirituality, then why can’t he give the stone some spirituality.

Thinking about this brightened his eyes. Without another words, he took out 10 treasures from his storage pouch.

Any treasure here was made from various materials and all of these materials contain spirituality. Though they are of different quality and have different levels of spirituality, it was better than nothing.

Therefore, Ling Xian took out materials he had no use for. Then, he formed a hand seal and began to burn the treasures and the materials!

Instantly, waves of energy dissipated throughout the place. Under his direction, they converged into the Sun Rock. Then, this rock began to s.h.i.+ne brighter and was no longer looking so fatigued.

“it’s working!”

Ling Xian’s eyes glistened. He sped up the burning speed of the treasures and materials to help out the Sun Stone.

With his capability today, other than the emerald umbrella and the gold print, he had no use for other treasures. Therefore, why wouldn’t he let these things be useful and save a potential powerful fairy kind?

Without a doubt, this was a great deal. Anyone would choose to do this.

For someone at the fifth level, they would give up all their wealth in exchange for a Sun Stone that was the spiritual kind.

Therefore, Ling Xian didn’t consider the value of these and began to burn away his useless treasures.

Instantly, spirituality began to pour out and inject themselves into the Sun Stone to help it transform.

These treasures and materials were drying up at a speed visible to the eye and turned into useless metals.

Out of these treasures, the weapons he gained from the Cliff of Treasures Division contained the most spirituality. Every item he burned helped the Sun Stone s.h.i.+ne a little brighter. After all eight items were burned, the Sun Stone, like its name, began to shed light again.

Of course, he would never burn the emerald umbrella or the gold print. These two treasures will be valuable to him. All he burned were the useless treasures in order to let them help out the Sun Sone.

“It’s definitely helping but it needs to continue burning. Or else the stone will not be successful.”

Ling Xian murmured and continued to burn the treasures that turned into a small pile. He did his best to aid the Sun Stone.

Just like that, time went by little by little.

With Ling Xian’s help, the originally weak Sun Stone had gotten better. The light it emitted was getting brighter and stronger.

In the end, a sense of liveliness arose from within the Sun Stone.
