Chapter 89: Breakthrough, Forge the Xuan Bone!
The next day.
Still, heavy snow descended from the sky, endless and boundless.
[Source Energy]: 313.77
Opening his panel for a quick check, Jiang Ning nodded with satisfaction.
He had digested the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures from yesterday, boosting his Source Energy Points by more than two hundred, now more than halfway to five hundred.
However, after a quick calculation, Jiang Ning knew that the Water and Flame Spirit Fruit he had eaten the day before last had yielded more Source Energy Points than the batch of ordinary Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures he had consumed yesterday.
Not only did it provide more Source Energy Points, but it also cost fewer Silver Taels.
More importantly, the effects it brought on were even stronger from the Water and Flame Spirit Fruit.
The effects provided by the Water and Flame Spirit Fruit had significantly enhanced his Water and Fire True Strength, bringing an increase of 1,637 points to his Experience Value.
The batch of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures he had consumed yesterday brought him almost negligible enhancement.
The improvements to his Qi-Blood and physical strength, in the face of his currently powerful physique and Qi-Blood, were virtually zero.
As for those Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures that replenished bodily wear and assisted in recovery of strength and condition, they were even less useful to him.
After all, as long as he received the nourishment of water sources, all his wear and tear would recover quickly.
Compared to these, the cost-effectiveness of the Water and Flame Spirit Fruit was clearly much higher.
Jiang Ning then closed the panel, quietly harboring the thoughts in his heart.
When he rolled out of bed.
He inspected his body internally.
Instantly, he saw that the two hundred and six bones inside his body had changed again compared to yesterday.
The two hundred and six bones within were each refined at ninety-nine percent completion, colored like obsidian.
The silver threads distributed on the bones had also diminished greatly.
Roughly between ten or so to thirty threads remained.
"Approximately two or three more days!" Jiang Ning opened his eyes and murmured to himself.
Then he pushed open the room's door.
The snow and wind that had been blocked outside immediately blew into his room, and his disheveled long hair was tossed about in the wind.
"This weather, it's truly dreadful!"
"If it's really man-made, then this is a bit too much!"
Jiang Ning shook his head and stepped out of the door.
Then he turned around and closed the door behind him, preventing the snow and wind from pouring in and causing the snow to drift inside everywhere, melting into water and making the room damp.
At this moment, Jiang Ning was simply wearing two layers of thin clothing as he stood in the courtyard.
The cold wind carrying heavy snow did not make him feel much coldness.
By this step, he was starting to become impervious to the extremes of summer and winter.
Especially for him.
Afterward.
He stood in the courtyard to stretch his muscles and warm up his body, then he suddenly exploded with Inner Breath, sweeping the accumulated snow in the courtyard over the tall walls.
Especially the snow on the trees and the roof, he cleaned it all away.
If one did not clear the snow from the trees and roofs, the heavy accumulation would sooner or later topple buildings and break trees.
In this kind of blizzard, there wasn't much work to do; it was what ordinary folks had to do daily.
For Jiang Ning, he simply cleared the snow in his own east courtyard.
As for the snow in other places, that was all left to Jiang Li to handle.
The task of clearing the snow was simple for him.
But he would not overreach.
It was more appropriate to leave some tasks for Jiang Li to do.
The sense of need would prevent Jiang Li from feeling too great a disparity or sense of loss.
After clearing the snow in his courtyard.
Jiang Ning had not yet started arranging a suitable environment for practicing, setting up surroundings rich in the Five Elements Spirit.
Then, he saw Lv Yi, wrapped in a white rabbit fur coat and wearing a green long skirt, approaching with a food container in her hands.
"Young Master!" Seeing Jiang Ning's gaze turn towards her, Lv Yi immediately beamed with a smile.
She was very satisfied with her life now.
So, knowing about Jiang Ning's approximate waking time yesterday, she had gotten up early and stewed a clay pot of meat soup.
Because Jiang Ning woke up very early.
The time from waking up to breakfast was a good three to four hours apart.
"What's this?" Jiang Ning looked at the food container in Lv Yi's hands.
Seeing his interest, Lv Yi brought the food container in front of her: "Young Master, this is a freshly prepared meat soup, it's suitable for you to fill your stomach before practicing."
"Alright!" Jiang Ning nodded, "Bring it into my room first!"
Lv Yi, hearing this, walked two steps toward Jiang Ning's room, then stopped again, "Young Master, let me comb your hair for you."
Jiang Ning ran his fingers through his own hair. Although he washed it with water every day, he had not been caring for it these days.
It now seemed a bit messy.
Usually, he wasn't one to fuss over his hair, casually tying it up.
But hearing Lv Yi's words, Jiang Ning touched his hair and instantly nodded.
"Okay!"
Afterward.
The two headed into his room.
...
Sitting on a stool.
Jiang Ning picked up a bowl of steaming meat soup and swallowed it down eagerly.
Although he wouldn't be troubled not eating in the morning.
Even with his current strength, he could barely hold on even if he didn't eat for ten days to half a month.
But an empty stomach still felt quite uncomfortable.
Especially in this cold winter weather, having a bowl of piping hot meat soup in the morning filled the emptiness in his stomach, a truly enjoyable thing.
A moment later.
Under Lv Yi's meticulous combing, Jiang Ning's previously disheveled hair became neat and was securely tied behind his head.
At the same time, he finished two large bowls of meat soup.
With continuous warmth spreading in his belly, he felt contented.
"Being looked after by someone is indeed much more comfortable!" Jiang Ning rubbed his stomach, sighing to himself internally.
