The Ascension of Contracted Spirits

Chapter 173 - 127: GuaGua Levels Up, Mechanism Water Gun! (6200 words) _3

It took a full half an hour before he returned, holding the heart of the Cement Heart-sealing Grass.

"GuaGua, lend a hand with bath service."

Ye Hanjun opened the bottle cap pointing at Li Jingming who was releasing an intense stench, and began giving orders as if it was just a few meters away.

"Yiye?"(｡◕ˇ∀ˇ◕)

The little tadpole tilted its head.

"Bathe" was one of the first words it learned.

Correspondingly, "soak", "rubbing bath", "bathe"... It could understand these frequently performed actions.

However, it seemed that it had never bathed other big tadpoles...

With little eyes wide open, GuaGua opened its thumb-thin mouth. It was like a small tadpole shaped water gun, spraying up and down at Li Jingming.

But surprisingly, the tadpole that Ye Hanjun had raised was truly masterful at bathing.

Whether it was clothes, shoes... or nostrils, strands of hair... GuaGua didn’t spare any energy, washing it thoroughly again and again.

Finally, Li Jingming had to stretch out his hand to indicate that he might peel off if the scrubbing continued.

Only then did GuaGua close its mouth, cancelling the Water Connect Bullet spell.

The look of anticipation in its eyes was rather amusing to Ye Hanjun.

"Pff—"

Ye Hanjun punctured the heart, and sure enough, it hid shiny semi-transparent liquid.

This was Life Essence left by the Cement Heart-sealing Grass. As long as the shelf life doesn’t exceed fifty years, its effect could be comparable to the Spiritual Spring.

To ensure it wasn’t rotten, Ye Hanjun carefully poured a mouthful into his mouth. There was no scent, nor any taste.

But once swallowed, all his organs rejoiced. In a blink of an eye, his skin emitted a faint luminescent, a flash shot past his eyes, spreading out like lightning.

"Here, share and share alike."

Ye Hanjun held the egg-shaped heart, pouring a mouthful each into the mouths of Li Jingming and Su Mei.

Even Huazhu, Ghost-faced Moth, Pink Ostrich and the Mud Blade Mantis got their share.

"Shu Shu Shu~~~"

"Ga Ga~~ Ga Ga~~"

"Ni Ni~~ Ni Ni Ni~~"

Two humans and four beasts, either closed their eyes to feel the changes in their body, or half-closed their eyes in ecstasy.

"This essence doesn’t have a particularly clear effect."

"But can confirm, it’s all good. After drinking it, it seems to be capable of cleansing the impurities in the body."

Ye Hanjun advised his two disciples:

"Pay attention to your skin in the next few days; they might produce a lot of oil and excrete some grayish-black mud. Cleanse well and you might feel lighter than before."

"Yiye?"

Seeing that everyone got a share except him, the little tadpole jumped half a meter high, extremely interested in what big tadpole was holding.

"Don’t worry; the rest is yours."

Ye Hanjun broke into a smile. The essence only worked for the first sip. Any more would be a waste.

When he saw the dead Cement Heart-sealing Grass, he was thinking about whether this all-natural Life Essence would be even more potent for GuaGua.

Now, it seemed that the result was closer to the expected.

The little fella was not only curious but had a strong desire to explore. He wished to jump inside the heart and swim directly.

"Plop—"

The Pure White tadpole’s dream came true.

As if discovering a new land, it swam merrily in the several fist-sized hearts, wagging its tail.

After a few laps, it started to gulp down the water.

The tiny body, astonishingly like a whale drinking, made the nearly one-liter liquid disappear in a blink.

"Yiye..."

Lying on its back, the little tadpole unceremoniously lay in the moist egg-shaped heart.

Its rice-sized eyes opened and closed, and it began to doze off not long after.

Ye Hanjun examined its condition and saw words like "satisfied", "full". He confirmed once again that this thing is advanced spiritual material for the Pure White Tadpole, which aids in upgrading its level.

"This time... will it grow legs?"

Suppressing his anticipation, Ye Hanjun held the empty heart, slowed down his exploration, and went hunting for wild beasts on a whim.

"Yiye..."✧⁺⸜(●˙▾˙●)⸝⁺✧

On the fifth day in the Yellow Mud Swamp, GuaGua finally woke up.

It had a long sleep and was incredibly energetic when it woke up.

Looking at himself having grown from six centimeters to ten centimeters, the little fella was elated and instinctively started spitting water towards the sky above its head.

"Tut tut tut—tut tut tut—"

A round of Water Connect Bullets rushed like a shadow into the sky, flying at least a hundred meters.

That wasn’t the end, after an interval of only 0.01 second, Water Connect Bullets fired in succession, followed by the third round, the fourth round, the fifth round... as dense as a machine gun.

Startled, GuaGua widened its eyes, watching in disbelief as countless Water Connect Bullets dispersed like fireworks in the sky. As they fell, they became bead-sized droplets, raining down like a heavy rain.

Was this its own masterpiece?

GuaGua shook its tail, looked at the big tadpole and saw surprise in his eyes. Its tail immediately started to wag faster.

"Just..."

Ye Hanjun finally understood the feeling of ’speechless’.

After drinking the all-natural essence, the little tadpole took a full day and night to digest it. When it woke up, it had leveled up.

It evolved from Clay Body Small Achievement to Clay Body Great Completion.
