The Night King: The Asura
Ch-2311's chat. Highest tranquility
Elsewhere.
In the middle of the lake surrounded by icy land, the beautiful girl was focused on meditating regardless of the cold temperature around her, her hair looked bleached due to the effects of the cold temperature there.
Not only hair, even his eyebrows and eyelashes also whitened, his lips and skin looked very pale as if there was no more drop of blood in his body.
If others saw her, perhaps they would think that the girl was lifeless. However, the heat energy coming from the fire power within him, was still keeping his heart from freezing like his body.
Wush!
A cold energy shot out from his body, a white-colored aura enveloped him who was sitting in meditation, then the white aura formed the silhouette of an enormous dragon.
The white dragon whirled through the air, then darted down and entered again into the girl's body, at the same time, a much greater energy was again radiated from within her.
Booms!
The sound of muffled explosions rang out from within his body, indicating that his cultivation had increased to a higher level, as well as his strength that had also increased to a higher level.
With her eyes still closed, the girl stood up from her seat, then she stepped forward and jumped into the very cold lake.
When the tip of his foot touched the lake water, his body immediately froze right then and there, causing him to fall to the bottom of the lake, but not long after, the ice that covered his body suddenly shattered.
A much greater energy radiated from within his body, giving rise to a whirlpool that was getting bigger and bigger, at the same time, all the energy in the pool was absorbed into him.
Dhuayar!
A powerful explosion occurred when all the energy in the lake was absorbed into the body of the girl, she then jumped and shot flying out of the lake, and then stopped after being at a height.
Wush!
An enormous cold aura emanated from his body, he opened his eyes, stared at the extremely cold icy land around him, his eyes stare extremely sharp and so cold, it was not unlike the temperature that was there.
"I made it" he murmured, then darted flying away from the place.
Crass!
Dhuayar!
The power of lightning struck from the sky and struck her body, lucky that the girl managed to notice it quickly, so that she could withstand it by using a shield of extremely cold energy.
He lifted his face, looking at the long-haired man who was floating in the air, the calmness that was painted on the man's face gave a cool feeling to him who was now staring fixedly at the man's face.
A moment later, the man had appeared before him, a smile on his lips, "Sister, long time no see" he said softly.
Xie Ling smiled at her sister, she floated over to Jia Zhen then smacked her head slowly, "What is that, the way you welcomed your own brother!?"
Jia Zhen laughed awkwardly as he scratched the back of his head, "I'm sorry, sis."
"Zhen'er, is this just my feeling or are you getting taller?"
"I'm also confused myself, because after finishing training, I immediately followed my brother here."
"Where do you know I'm here?"
"So, just follow a hunch."
"Well, we'd better see the teacher now."
Jia Zhen nodded, "Sister, why does your hair color change?"
"You mean?"
"Look at this" Jia Zhen grabbed Xie Ling's hair tip then showed it to his older sister.
"Eh, why is this?"
"The aura on big sister's body is also different from before."
"Wait a minute."
Xie Ling closed her eyes, then poured energy into her hair, instantly, her hair color changed again. But instead of turning black, her hair was silver.
"Well, big brother looks really pretty" Jia Zhen praised.
"Don't make fun of me!"
"Sister, I'm not a child anymore, and what I said just now is not a mockery."
"You sure?"
Jia Zhen nodded, "I dare to swear."
"Have it done, we'd better see the teacher now!"
Jia Zhen nodded again, then grabbed his brother's hand, then afterwards, the two of them disappeared from the icy landmass in the Northern region of the Nirvana Realm. And a moment later, the two had reached the village gate where his teacher was.
That extremely fast move made Xie Ling completely amazed by her sister, how could it not be? The speed that his sister had was now on par with their teacher, or even faster.
Otherside.
Lao Tzu who was still faithfully sitting at the edge of the village gate, seemed a little surprised by the appearance of Jia Zhen and Xie Ling, their appearance that was already different almost made him not recognize the two students.
"Murid saluted the teacher" said the two, kneeling before Lao Tzu.
"Your development has been amazing, I didn't even expect you to complete the test in just a year" Lao Tzu said.
Jia Zhen and Xie Ling gasped in shock at Lao Tzu's words, they truly did not expect that time had passed by for a year. In fact, they felt like cultivating for just a few days.
But, there was no reason for them not to believe in the words of his teacher, because the changes in their bodies could be made into very real evidence. After all, there was no way Lao Tzu would lie to them.
Lao Tzu who had been standing fixed his gaze on Jia Zhen, he smiled gently when he saw the calmness that was drawn on his disciple's face.
The same thing he did to Xie Ling, he really felt proud because Xie Ling managed to fuse the cold aura with the power of the earth flames. In fact, Lao Tzu could feel how cold the fire power was.
"Xie Ling, try to bring out the power of your earth flame" Lao Tzu said.
"Good teacher!" Xie Ling raised her hand into the air, then in her palm appeared a silver-colored fireball.
"Th-this..." Xie Ling was again confused by the aura of fire in her hand, because, the power of the fire felt very cold like ice.
"This change happened because of the cold temperature within the lake, teacher believes you've absorbed all the cold energy within the lake."
What Lao Tzu said was indeed true, as Xie Ling had indeed managed to absorb the entire cold energy within the lake. As a result, the lake water instantly froze after Xie Ling came out from within it.
"Jia Zhen, try to hurt the snake in the tree with this twig."
Jia Zhen nodded, then grabbed the twig in his teacher's hand, then he threw the twig towards the tree that was very far away from them.
The twig thrown by Jia Zhen shot out at high speed, even that branch that was supposed to break or shatter, instead stuck out like a knife when it hit the tree trunk.
"Good, you really made it."
"Are the teachers sure? I mean, I didn't see anything on that tree" said Xie Ling.
"If you don't believe me, look at yourself."
"I didn't believe it, just didn't expect that you could see the caterpillar so clearly, it was so far away."
The test that Jia Zhen underwent was not an ordinary test, but rather a test that made him achieve the highest calmness, a calmness that even their father had never achieved.
