Chapter 617 - Unexpectedly Strong
Chapter 617: Unexpectedly Strong
As Lin Yuan worked, the thickening pine incense overcame all the odd smells in the studio, filling it with the refreshing scent of pine.
When the refreshing scent entered one’s nose, they would feel like they had just been thrown into a world of snow pine.
The fragrance of pine made Master Hong Shen feel like his soul was being gently soothed. It was an incredibly comforting feeling.
Thus, Master Hong Shen’s mouth fell open and stayed that way.
He took in as much pine fragrance through his nose and mouth as he could like a madman.
The mystic soothing of his soul completely entranced Master Hong Shen.
When Lin Yuan added the last of the elemental pearl powder, the Cold Snow Pine’s blue tree sap, which had been turning increasingly transparent, lost the last of its blue color along with the final wisps of icy flames.
When the icy blue flames disappeared, the red flames vanished as well.
The moment that both the flames disappeared, the Cold Snow Pine’s baby-blue-colored tree sap transformed into black powder.
Lin Yuan’s lips curled into a smile.
“The pine smoke was like a dye infusion. The Cold Snow Pine resin is complete!”
Lin Yuan did not pour the Cold Snow Pine resin into the crystal bottle. He placed the lid over the platane wood box and used it as the vessel to keep the Cold Snow Pine resin safe.
The jade-textured platane wood box had been nourished by the fire-elemental energy and had the aura of two kinds of flames. It was a good vessel to keep the Cold Snow Pine resin safe.
Lin Yuan turned and saw Master Hong Shen, who was breathing as deeply as possible.
His smile faltered as he walked up to Master Hong Shen.
Lin Yuan took a silver spoon out of the amber-button-shaped fey storage box and spooned out a little of the black powder Cold Snow Pine resin.
Lin Yuan used a normal flame to set the black powder in the spoon alight before placing the spoon under Master Hong Shen’s nostrils.
The breeze wafted the smoke into Master Hong Shen’s nostrils and to the depths of his soul.
The pine fragrance soothed his soul.
The soul injury which had tormented Master Hong Shen for more than a decade was being healed.
After Master Hong Shen awoke from his entrancement, it seemed that he had no idea Lin Yuan had just set the Cold Snow Pine resin alight.
However, Master Hong Shen could tell from his unbelievably relaxed soul that his soul injury had been completely healed.
The cured Master Hong Shen looked at Lin Yuan gratefully and fell to one knee.
With a wave of his hand, a Willpower Rune that had clearly been comprehended from plants appeared and circled around Master Hong Shen’s fingers.
Following Master Hong Shen’s sincere oath, Master Hong Shen finally and truly became Lin Yuan’s follower.
A wave of doubts appeared in Master Hong Shen’s mind.
Now that his soul was healed, he was a Class 3 Creation Master that could be promoted to a Class 4 Creation Master at any time.
He would be able to succeed anywhere he went and led a smooth-sailing life.
But why didn’t I hesitate at all to swear on a Willpower Rune to become this young man’s follower? I even felt determined to do it.
As he looked at the beaming young man, Master Hong Shen bowed his head respectfully.
Master Hong Shen knew that if not for this young man, he would probably be doomed to suffer the pain of his injured soul for the rest of his days.
The events of the past hour were a miraculous surprise.
Master Hong Shen was sure that this surprise was a blessing sent from heaven.
Lin Yuan reached out his hand and helped Master Hong Shen up.
Master Hong Shen was now a member of Lin Yuan’s family.
Lin Yuan had cocked his eyebrow in surprise when Master Hong Shen summoned the Willpower Rune. He could sense that the Willpower Rune had been comprehended from plants because the concentrated plant aura was unmistakable.
However, the Willpower Rune carried an obvious hint of murderous intent.
This reminded Lin Yuan of the Willpower Rune he had comprehended when he had been experiencing intense maliciousness. He had left the Willpower Rune in his spiritual spatial zone all this time.
The murderous intent of both Willpower Runes was extremely similar.
If they were carefully studied, differences could be pointed out.
The murderous intent of Lin Yuan’s Willpower Rune was close to insanity, whereas Master Hong Shen’s Willpower Rune’s murderous intent had a rather elegant aura.
Lin Yuan silently analyzed to himself, A Willpower Rune like this doesn’t suit Creation Masters and their feys who raise the level of their Creation Masters. It’s more suitable for strong combat-class feys.
“Master Hong Shen, can I take a look at your contracted feys?”
If anyone else had spoken to Master Hong Shen in such a manner, he would have immediately slapped them.
It was extremely disrespectful for a spirit qi professional to interrogate another spirit qi professional about their feys.
This was the equivalent of trying to sniff out another person’s trump card.
However, Master Hong Shen was now Lin Yuan’s follower.
After being asked by Lin Yuan, Master Hong Shen did not feel unhappy at all. Rather, he was delighted.
He immediately waved his hand and summoned his contracted feys.
Master Hong Shen felt that Lin Yuan had asked the question out of concern.
Master Hong Shen was exceedingly confident about his feys. He also saw this as a good opportunity to show off his fey to Lin Yuan.
Master Hong Shen raised his hand, and a glowing ball of purplish-black energy started to swirl.
The ball of purplish-black energy grew larger and formed a sort of purplish-black territory.
At the center of the territory was a lush succulent plant that was about a meter tall.
When Lin Yuan saw the fey that Master Hong Shen had summoned, he instantly looked at Master Hong Shen in shock.
He felt that he had not just gained a pinnacle Class 3 Creation Master as a follower but also a pinnacle king-class combat-class spirit qi professional.
Although Master Hong Shen had only comprehended one Willpower Rune, the Fantasy Breed fey he had contracted was incredibly powerful.
Master Hong Shen must have injected an unimaginable amount of resources to nurture this fey to its current level.
Lin Yuan felt that he had hit the jackpot by recruiting Master Hong Shen as his follower.
As he looked at the Fantasy Breed fey and was thinking to himself, Lin Yuan also used True Dara to check this fey’s attributes.
From what he saw, Lin Yuan realized that Master Duan Li’s fey was much stronger than he had initially thought.
