Ah Chun: Ascending The Heavens 87 Spirit King

"Sp-Spirit King!" Finally, Ning Shen was able to get his words out of his mouth. Ah Chun was surprised at Ning Shen's words. She remembered reading some information on Spirit Kings in her samsara that they were extremely rare and hardly ever seen in the lower realms. But they were an evolved form of Earth Spirits that had gained sentience over a long period of time.

"It's so cute!" Ah Chun reached over with her finger extended and rubbed the top of the little ball. She was surprised to see that it felt fluffy to the touch. She was not expecting it to actually have a soft feeling. She couldn't get enough of its fluffiness as she continued to pet it. The Spirit King seemed to enjoy the attention as it nudged itself on her finger with its eye closed. "Shen look it's so cute!"

Ning Shen looked at the Spirit King stretched out his finger to pet it. Only to have the Spirit King move instantly away from his finger but only enough for Ning Shen's finger to miss but not far enough for Ah Chun's finger to stop petting it and so started the petting war. Ning Shen would try to pet while the Spirit King would dodge ever so slightly. Ah Chun saw this and started cracking up laughing. She couldn't help herself, it was as if the Spirit King was playing Ning Shen.

"Come here little guy you can come sit in my lap." The Spirit King did not hesitate and floated up before settling itself into her lap. Seeing that the Spirit King was blatantly ignoring him Ning Shen could only let out a deep sigh. But seeing that Ah Chun was so happy he swallowed his grievances. He really wanted to pet the Spirit King okay….

When the Spirit King settled down in Ah Chun's lap it closed its eye and it's light started to fluctuate in and out as if it was sleeping. But as time pa.s.sed Ah Chun realized that the Earth Spirits in the area were starting to gather around her. As they slowly but surely floated towards the Spirit King landing on it then being absorbed right into the Spirit King Ah Chun and Ninge Shen looked at each other in surprise.

"So that is how Spirit Kings formed. All the information on them I had read was wrong on this aspect. They are not actually evolved from a single Earth Spirits but are formed from many Earth Spirits that fused together." Ah Chun had never seen a picture of an actual Spirit King but she took an interest in them since they were born from the worlds Spiritual Qi. She thought it was interesting on how Spiritual Qi was able to form a sentient life. Now that she was seeing one for herself she really thought they were very cute!

Ah Chun and Ning Shen spent the rest of the night closely watching the Spirit King as it absorbed the Earth Spirits in the surroundings. This was a rare event so they did not want to miss such a thing. Even Qin Sha came over to watch the show.

Slowly the sun started to peek over the horizon the Earth Spirits in the area had all been absorbed by the Spirit King. It's one eye slowly opened and looked up at Ah Chun. It then closed its eye again and nuzzled itself into Ah Chun's arms. "I think it's like me! Little fellow do you want to come with me?"

As if answering Ah Chun's question it floated up on to Ah Chun's shoulder and perched itself there. "I guess that is a yes. In that case, we need to give you a name how about… Xiao w.a.n.g? Since you are little but yet a king." The Spirit King now named Xiao w.a.n.g nuzzled up against Ah Chun's neck. As if saying it liked the name.

"It's strange that even though the sun is up that it has not disappeared. I wonder how many Earth Spirits it had to absorb to be able to still be seen during the day." Ning Shen only Knew that Earth Spirits would disappear once the sun was in the sky. But the Spirit King was still visible even now.

"Well, I for one am glad I can still see Xiao w.a.n.g. I would be sad if he disappeared right after I named him. " Ah Chun smiled as she touched Xiao w.a.n.g's fluffy body

Ning Shen looked at the happy expression on Ah Chun's face then looked at the spirit king and decided that one day he too, will touch Xiao w.a.n.g's fluffy body! Ning Shen shook his head and looked up at the sky as he took in a deep breath and said: "Suns up so we should head out. We still have a lot of ground to cover before we reach The Dragon Mist Realm. We will cross the river here so I will carry you over."

"Okay!" Ah Chun hopped off the rock she was sitting on and walked over to Ning Shen before reaching up with her arms and wrapping them around his neck. He then placed one hand on her back and another under her knees and lifted her off the ground. Once he had a good hold on Ah Chun, she let go of his neck and nestled into his embrace as she watched Ning Shen float up into the sky. Ah Chun, Ning Shen, Qin Sha and the newly added Xiao w.a.n.g all flew out over the river.
