The sun rises and the moon sets, and the cold and heat are several degrees. In the Tingchao Pavilion, time seemed to be frozen.
Jiang Ni sat cross-legged, with a faint halo covered her body, which was the afterglow of the “Soul Stone”. Her eyes were closed, her breathing was long, and her originally pale face had regained its rosyness.
Xu Fengzhe stood by, never leaving. He could feel that the aura in Jiang Ni’s body was gradually becoming stronger, which was a sign of the revival of power after the soul was restored.
Finally, Jiang Ni slowly opened his eyes. Her eyes were clearer and brighter than before, like two bright stars.
“Brother Fengzhe.” She called softly, with a hint of joy in her voice.
Xu Fengzhe took a step forward, held her hand, and said softly, “How do you feel?”
Jiang Ni nodded, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised: “It’s great, good that has never been done before.”
She stood up, moved her muscles and bones, and felt that her whole body was full of strength, as if she was reborn.
“The Soul Stone is indeed magical.” Xu Fengzhe sighed.
Jiang Ni looked at him, a hint of gratitude flashed in his eyes: “Thanks to you.”
Xu Fengzhe smiled and said nothing. He knew that Jiang Ni’s gratitude was far more than that. “By the way,” Jiang Ni said suddenly, “I feel like I have an extra power.”
“What power?” Xu Fengzhe asked.
Jiang Ni closed his eyes, concentrated his feelings, and said slowly, “A… a very ancient power, related to Western Chu.”
Xu Fengzhe’s heart moved. Could it be…
“I seem to be able to summon something.” Jiang Ni opened his eyes, with a hint of confusion in his eyes, “But I don’t know what to do.”
“Summon?” Xu Fengzhe pondered for a moment and said, “Is it the guardian beast of the Western Chu royal family?”
Jiang Ni nodded: “I vaguely feel this way.”
A hint of excitement flashed in Xu Fengzhe’s eyes: “Then try.”
Jiang Ni followed the words and closed his eyes again. She slowly mobilized the power of Xi Chu in her body and tried to communicate with the ancient power.
However, a long time passed, but there was no reaction.
Jiang Ni opened his eyes and shook his head: “No, I can’t feel it.”
Xu Fengzhe frowned. This shouldn’t be true.
“What is the guardian beast of the Western Chu royal family?” he asked.
Jiang Ni thought for a moment and said, “It is recorded in ancient books that there is a guardian beast in the royal family of the Western Chu, named ‘Xuanwu’, with powerful defense and water-based spells.”
Xuanwu? Xu Fengzhe was shocked. What is the connection with the black turtle he killed before?
“What are the restrictions on summoning the guardian beast?"He asked again.
Jiang Ni said: “It takes a lot of power to consume in Xi Chu, and… it requires a specific spell.”
Spell? Xu Fengzhe’s heart moved, and he suddenly thought that he also had a book called “The Secret Record of Western Chu”, which perhaps recorded the method of summoning the guardian beast.
“Jiang Ni, wait.” He said, turning around and walking into the inner room of Tingchao Pavilion.
A moment later, he walked out with a quaint book.
“This is the “Secret Record of Western Chu”, and there may be records in it.” Xu Fengzhe said.
Jiang Ni took the book and looked it out.
The two of them studied carefully and finally found a record of summoning the guardian beast in the corner of the page.
“Finished!” Jiang Ni shouted in surprise.
Xu Fengzhe leaned over and saw an obscure text written on it.
“Is this a spell?” he asked.
Jiang Ni nodded: “It should be, but I have never seen this text before, and I don’t know how to pronounce it.”
Xu Fengzhe frowned. This spell seemed to be written in an ancient language.
“I’ll try it.” He said.
He tried to recite this mantra according to his own understanding.
However, his pronunciation was never clear.
“No, the pronunciation of this spell is too strange.” Xu Fengzhe said.
Jiang Ni also tried it several times, but also failed.
The two were in trouble.
Just then, Xu Fengzhe suddenly had a flash of inspiration.
“System, can you translate this mantra?” he asked in his heart.
The system was silent for a moment, and then said, “Yes, but it takes a thousand squander points.”
One thousand squander points? Xu Fengzhe hesitated for a moment, but still gritted his teeth and said, “Translation!”
A flash of light in the system, and a piece of information poured into Xu Fengzhe’s mind.
That is the correct pronunciation of this mantra.
Xu Fengzhe closed his eyes, felt it carefully, and then slowly opened his eyes.
“Jiang Ni, listen.” He said.
He took a deep breath and recited the mantra according to the pronunciation provided by the system.
His voice was low and mysterious, as if it was a call from ancient times.
Jiang Ni was on the side, listening carefully, keeping every syllable in his heart.
When Xu Fengzhe finished reciting the last syllable, the entire Tingchao Pavilion suddenly vibrated.
“This is…” Jiang Ni exclaimed.
Xu Fengzhe didn’t say anything, he stared at Jiang Ni.
He knew that this was a sign that the spell came into effect.
Jiang Ni took a deep breath and activated the power of Xi Chu in his body to the extreme.
She recited the same thing again according to Xu Fengzhe’s pronunciationA spell.
Her voice was crisp and firm, with an unquestionable majesty.
As the spell was recited, a dazzling light burst out from Jiang Ni.
A huge figure slowly emerged in the light.
It was a huge black treasure, all over dark, and above the tortoise shell, covered with ancient and mysterious patterns, flashing with faint blue light.
