The two of them stood in front of the sword field and talked for a while.
Then, Bai Huan took out a white jade gourd the size of a fist and threw it against the wind.
The gourd flew in the air and instantly enlarged, gradually becoming two thousand feet long. Just the mouth of the gourd was more than ten feet high, facing the direction of the metal wind.
Then, Bai Huan explained with a smile, "This is a 'Metal Essence Gourd', an immortal weapon specially used to collect metal wind. It can be said to be one of the treasures of the White Emperor Palace."
Qin Di asked, "Aunt, why do you collect the metal wind?"
Bai Huan answered, "First, I bring it back to plant swords. I have a sword field in the White Emperor Palace. I collect some metal essence here and bring it back to speed up the cultivation of the sword field. Second, I have to hand over a portion of the metal wind to the sect's hall of affairs to train low-level disciples. "
"Oh, I see. I thought you came here every twenty to thirty years just to inspect the immortal swords."
Bai Huan laughed, "I have no choice. It's not easy to cultivate. I have to be prepared. If the sword field here is destroyed, I can still count on the sword billets in the White Emperor Palace. However, the metal wind there is not sharp enough, so the quality of the swords planted is slightly inferior. Fortunately, it is in the White Emperor Palace, so safety is guaranteed. "
"Aunt, do you know where I can buy a container like the Metal Essence Gourd that can collect metal wind?"
"Don't even think about immortal artifacts, but there's still hope to buy eighth-stage and ninth-stage spirit treasures. It's just that they're expensive, and eighth-stage spirit treasures aren't very reliable. Maybe they'll be blown away by the metal wind in less than three days. If you become a personal disciple of the White Emperor Palace, the palace will grant you a ninth level spirit treasure. The reliability will increase a lot, and you can at least last twenty to thirty days in the Metal Wind Valley without collapsing. If it takes longer, it's hard to say. "
Qin Di laughed, "That's good! As long as there is a ninth level spirit treasure, I can add a treasure restriction to it, and it can advance to an immortal weapon. "
Bai Huan said, "The Metal Essence Gourd given by the sect has already been added with two treasures. The White Emperor's Palace was a large sect, and the Forbidden Treasures were a common method. If you want to continue to upgrade the gourd, it won't be easy unless you can refine a treasure of an even higher grade, or like you said before, you can use the Yin Spring and Spirit Fire to repeatedly refine it. Only then will it be possible to quickly advance. However, it won't succeed overnight. "
Qin Di nodded. "Yes, I understand. Thank you, Auntie, for the details. "
Being in the Metal Wind Valley, the wind whistled past her ears. Under the strong Metal Wind, Bai Huan was not as natural as she had been at the beginning. Her body involuntarily bent. She looked at Qin Di and said, "I want to execute the White Emperor's Golden Statue Technique and wait for the Metal Essence Gourd to be full. If you can't hold on, you might as well fly further away. Wait for me outside the valley. "
Qin Di said, "Gu Gu, just cast your spell, don't worry about me."
Bai Huan shook her body and transformed into a five-foot-tall platinum-bronze man. She stood motionless at the bottom of the gourd where the wind was weaker.
Qin Di sat cross-legged on the ground with his upper body bare. He faced the Metal Wind and breathed in and out continuously.
Time passed day by day. Metal-elemental rules formed in his grotto-heaven and kept evolving on the light mirror of the grotto-heaven stone. Unknowingly, he had comprehended close to a hundred Metal-elemental rules, pushing his skills to the peak of the first level of Spirit Immortal.
The color of his body changed from bronze to bright silver, as if he was wearing a thick layer of armor. It was similar to the spell that Bai Huan cast.
A month later, when Bai Huan returned to her original appearance, she turned to look at Qin Di's platinum-covered body. She couldn't help but be shocked. "Eh, how did this child learn the White Emperor's Golden Statue Technique so early? Could it be that he didn't tell the truth, and is actually a disciple of one of the elders in the White Emperor's Palace? "
The so-called White Emperor's Golden Statue Technique didn't just refer to the bright golden statue, but the Dharma Images constructed from various metals. Their appearance could be platinum-colored, bright silver, purple-gold, or bronze. They could change according to the environment outside. The Metal Wind Valley was mainly bright silver, so when this spell was cast, the surface of the body would be the same color.
Bai Huan chanted an incantation and shrunk the huge gourd to the size of a fist. She held it in her palm and said loudly, "Qin Jin, wake up, we're going back!"
Qin Di opened his eyes and asked, "Gu Gu, you collected all the Metal Winds just like that?"
Bai Huan shook the gourd and answered, "When the Metal Winds enter the gourd, they're compressed into crystals, which are rare Metal Essences. With these Metal Essences, it's enough for the many disciples in the White Emperor's Palace to cultivate for two to three cycles. It's also enough for my celestial sword to grow. "
Qin Di stood up and said, "Alright then, which direction are we flying in?"
"East, of course. After passing through the vast continent and crossing the Heavenly Moat, we'll reach the Central Continent. The White Emperor's Palace is in the Central Continent's western region, just on the other side of the Heavenly Moat. "
"Gu Gu, what's the Heavenly Moat?"
"It's the gap between the continents. There are strong winds in the sky, just like the strong winds at the top of the Heavenly Pillar of the Spiritual Mountain in the Primeval World, but several times stronger. If a mid-level Spirit Immortal wants to cross the Heavenly Moat, there's a certain risk of dying. You'll know when we get there. "
Qin Di followed beside Bai Huan. With her help, they flew for two months before reaching the edge of the Western Continent. There was no more land in front of them! As far as the eye could see, it was a sea of clouds! Colorful clouds rolled. Some areas were as red as blood, while others were as white as cotton. They rolled up and down, seeming to contain killing intent.
Bai Huan warned him, "Be careful. The strong winds here are different from the metal wind from before. It's similar to the wind of pure Yang. Moreover, there are thunder beasts hidden in the sea of clouds. If you accidentally enter their territory, you might be struck by lightning and die even faster!"
"Thunder beasts? I was just thinking of using a piece of thunder beast's bone as a drumstick! "
"Don't! The thunder beasts here are in groups. With your current skills, it's better to avoid them! Don't cause trouble and follow me obediently! "
Qin Di had no choice but to follow her and fly forward carefully.
At this time, the wind blowing beside him had already changed. If it was another person, under this kind of astral wind, their flesh and blood would have fallen off piece by piece. Since it was a pure Yang wind, it was possible that the Yin blood and bodily fluids of the body could be stripped off. How could a living person not have blood? Therefore, such strong winds were very dangerous to most cultivators.
Qin Di cultivated the Fiendgod Body Tempering Technique. With just a thought, the surface of his body became like white jade, shining brilliantly without any gaps. Therefore, he was less affected.
After a while, he suddenly asked, "Auntie Bai, do you think wearing the Invisibility Algae Coat will work while flying in such strong winds?"
Bai Huan's eyes brightened. She cried out happily, "Yes, of course it works! However, Senshu cultivators rarely have it. Only Devil Cultivators may have it, but it's very precious. If you take it outside, one Invisibility Algae Coat can be exchanged for a ninth-stage spirit treasure! "
Qin Di was shocked. "I didn't expect the Invisibility Algae Coat to be so valuable. I happen to have a few with me. I can give one to Auntie as compensation for this pair of shorts."
As he spoke, he took out two Invisibility Algae Coats. He put one on himself and handed the other to Bai Huan.
Bai Huan touched the smooth and glossy Invisibility Algae Coat. Her eyes flickered as she said, "Auntie doesn't need this, but I have a relative who accidentally fell into the Devil's Sect … so I won't stand on ceremony with you."
"Auntie, if you need it, I can give you two more!"
