Chapter 135: Chapter 67 Celestial Abyss Ocean_1 Chapter 135: Chapter 67 Celestial Abyss Ocean_1 The petite golden figure was just over a foot tall, her glowing golden aura making her appear ethereal and majestic.

“Small Tree?” Long Kongkong exclaimed in surprise. He hadn’t even activated his spirit furnace, yet she had emerged of her own accord.

Upon witnessing her appearance, Ling Menglu was also taken aback, swiftly rising to respectfully say, “Senior Small Tree.”

Small Tree responded, “There’s no need to call me ‘senior’, just call me by my name. For us spirit furnaces, each time we reestablish a pact is a rebirth, managing to retain our awareness is already quite a feat.”

“Understood.” Ling Menglu responded with a nod and a smile. Long Dangdang too was witnessing his brother’s spirit furnace activated for the first time. He recognized it as the same being who had tested them upon their arrival at the academy. Moreover, it seemed to be one of the Nine Great Wisdom Spirit Furnaces, and possibly the most potent one at that.

Smiling, Long Dangdang, who had stood up with Ling Menglu earlier, took the initiative and greeted, “Hello, Small Tree.”

Small Tree nodded at Long Dangdang as a greeting and then went on, “Although Kongkong’s innate power is weak due to his congenital state, with my help, I believe he will catch up quick. Moreover, what is most compelling is his special Elemental Vortex Spirit Furnace, it makes his talents variable and full of unlimited potential. With me around, I can help him in his cultivation, as well as assist all of you in cultivation. Since you three have decided to work together, it’s apt to start collective cultivation. Xiao Ming’s with you, isn’t he?” Her last question was directed at Menglu.

“Yes.” Ling Menglu used her finger to lightly press on her forehead, a faint angelic golden imprint emerged on her forehead. A tiny golden angel smaller than Small Tree fluttered out from it, flapping its tiny wings, looking adorable.

The moment it spotted Small Tree, without a moment’s hesitation, it nestled against Small Tree and clung onto her neck.

Small Tree softly touched its head, smiled and said, “Your awareness retention is good, though it seems you’ve temporarily lost your ability to speak, at least not until after your first evolution.”

Ling Menglu asked, “Small Tree, do you intend to aid us in our cultivation along with Xiao Ming?”

Small Tree responded, “Not only us, but Senior Vast Ocean too.” As she spoke, she turned to Long Dangdang. He felt a shimmer from her ethereal eyes and a cool sensation spreading from his chest. The next thing he knew, the pure white Clear Moon Vast Ocean Spirit Furnace had suddenly emerged from his chest.

“Senior, would you be interested in assisting their cultivation rather earlier? With Xiao Ming’s mediation, it should still be feasible,” said Small Tree to the Clear Moon Vast Ocean Spirit Furnace.

“We can try. Although not as good as in the other form, it should be quite good for their current cultivation level,” the youthful voice of Vast Ocean echoed.

Ling Menglu was astonished. She, Long Dangdang, and Long Kongkong now had Wisdom Spirit Furnaces. Undeniably, Small Tree, as the leader of the Nine Great Sages, was once considered the most powerful auxiliary spirit furnace. Therefore, along with retaining her form and wisdom, her memory was also intact.

That even Long Dangdang’s incomplete spirit furnace could retain the ability to speak, even addressing Small Tree respectfully as ‘senior’, implies her Luminous Angel Spirit Furnace might be inferior in terms of foundational qualities. The question remained whether Long Dangdang’s Clear Moon Vast Ocean Spirit Furnace could be effectively restored.

“Go to your cultivation chamber,” Small Tree said to Ling Menglu.

“Understood, please follow me.”

Menglu’s cultivation chamber was on the second floor. The moment she opened the door, waves of overwhelming Light Elemental Fluctuation hit them.

Her chamber was at least triple the size of an ordinary student’s, an entitlement that befits her innate spiritual power of 99. The circular chamber had elaborate array formation glyphs etched into the floor, with gemstones embedded in the array, predominantly white and golden, undoubtedly light attribute spirit stones.

“The Holy Light Spirit Gathering Formation suits your current cultivation levels,” Small Tree nodded to Ling Menglu.

Long Dangdang and Long Kongkong had also entered the room by this time. Immersed in the divine Light Elements, they felt a warmth envelop their bodies, comfort seeping in, even seemingly enhancing their vitality.

As Ling Menglu closed the doors to the cultivation chamber, the energy waves within intensified. The divine Light Elements were generally only known to be wielded by Priests, hence ideally suited for Priest’s cultivation.

“Senior Vast Ocean, shall we give it a shot?” asked Small Tree, addressing the Clear Moon Vast Ocean Spirit Furnace.

Vast Ocean replied, “You said it earlier that each time we establish a pact is akin to a rebirth, so let’s skip the ‘Senior’ part. Just call me Vast Ocean. I can test merging with Xiao Ming first and then it’s up to you. However, we ought to wait for the night when the effects are optimal. During the day, I can exert only about half of my capability.”

After considering, Small Tree said, “Then let’s do this: Could you please merge with Kongkong’s Elemental Vortex Spirit Furnace first? I will guide him so you could experience the marvels of the merger. The results should be promising.”
