Chapter 214: Tang Li Xue's Secret Preparation!
Tang Li Xue wiped her tears from her mask with her sleeve, and slowly approached the back courtyard while kept thinking deeply.
'Both Silly Fox and Bingbing are really good foxes, but they are also too stubborn. They will not let me help them when they undergo their evolution process. I should make some preparations to help Bing Yi secretly first before I make Bing Yi evolve this time!' Tang Li Xue put her slender finger on her chin and thought for a while.
When Tang Li Xue arrived at the back courtyard, Bing Yi already waited for her and asked her with an anxious tone: "Little Xue, will Silly Fox be okay? Those thunder sounds are so loud, and those black lightning are so scarily powerful!"
Bing Yi did not see Hei Yinghao's evolution process, but she could still see that black cloud and black lightning from the back courtyard.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath and replied with a firm tone: "Do not worry, he will be okay... No, he will surely be okay! Now, it's your turn. Bingbing, you are different from Silly Fox. I need to strengthen your body first before you can evolve. Now, close your eyes and open your mouth!"
Bing Yi's expression turned solemn as she nodded to Tang Li Xue and followed what Tang Li Xue told her to do.
Tang Li Xue took out two [Power Up Pills] at once from her system inventory and flicked it all into Bing Yi's mouth.
Two [Power Up Pills] flew into Bing Yi's mouth, and she swallowed it all at once.
The moment when two [Power Up Pills] entered her stomach and dissolved in her body, Bing Yi immediately felt her strength increasing more and more at an incredible pace!
Her body got a lot more powerful. Even her vitality energy became far more plentiful and thicker than before.
BANG~!!!
Bing Yi's level breakthrough the bottleneck and increased from 38 to 39 without facing any resistance!
But it did not just stop there, Bing Yi could felt that the pill's effect on her body was still plentiful and kept increasing her strength more and more.
Bing Yi involuntarily m.o.a.ned loudly in pleasure while she was savoring the incredible effect of Tang Li Xue's [Level Up Pill] spreading on every inch of her body.
BANG~!!!
Bing Yi's level breakthrough again from 39 to 40 in only a few seconds!
The effect of [Level Up Pill] finally subsided after Bing Yi reached level 40.
Bing Yi slowly opened her eyes and breathed out the cold vapor from her mouth.
She smiled happily while grasped her fist and felt a great increase in her strength.
"Little Xue, I... I feel a lot stronger than before now! Thank you very much!" Bing Yi giggled and thanked Tang Li Xue with a tone full of gratefulness.
She happily ran to Tang Li Xue and hugged her while humming in glee, then spun together like a pair of love birds.
"Okay, that's enough. I will feel dizzy if you kept doing this. You must get used to your new strength first for a few hours before we can begin your evolution process." Tang Li Xue laughed and bowed her body before took several steps backward to get away from Bing Yi.
Bing Yi pouted in disappointment when Tang Li Xue escaped from her hug, but she still followed Tang Li Xue's instruction and practicing in the back courtyard to get used to her current new strength.
Tang Li Xue entered Hei Yinghao's house through the door from the back courtyard and sat in the living room.
'Thankfully, Bingbing did not feel suspicious at all. Now, I must use these several hours to create some talismans to help her pass her evolution process safely!' Tang Li Xue thought while sighed in relief.
She took out her golden [Inscription Pen] from her system inventory. She also took out a bottle filled with the [Rare] grade beast blood and several stacks of blank talismans from her space pouch.
'Let's begin!' Tang Li Xue took a deep breath, and her expression turned solemn when she held the golden [Inscription Pen] tightly in her grasp and focused all of her minds onto the blank talisman in front of her.
She dipped the tip of the golden [Inscription Pen] into the bottle filled with the [Rare] grade beast blood and began to inscribe a rune onto the blank talisman.
[Talisman of Numbness +2]
[ Effect: Numbing the sense of pain, -50% agility, -50% perception for 10 minutes.]
[+1 Effect: Reduced the negative buff effect by 30%. Duration +5 minutes.]
[+2 Effect: Reduced the negative buff effect by 50%. Duration +10 minutes.]
[Talisman of Iron Skin +2]
[[ Effect: Toughness stats +20%, Damage Reduction +15% for 10 minutes.]
[+1 Effect: Toughness stats +10%. Damage Reduction +5%. Duration +5 minutes.]
[+2 Effect: Toughness stats +20%. Damage Reduction +10%. Duration +10 minutes.]
[Talisman of Regeneration +2]
[Effect: Activated Regeneration skill. (Heal 1% of maximum HP every 5 seconds for 180 seconds.)]
[+1 Effect: Heal +0.5% of maximum HP every 5 seconds. Duration +60 seconds.]
[+2 Effect: Heal +1% of maximum HP every 5 seconds. Duration +120 seconds.]
It seemed Tang Li Xue's success rate was on fire today since the life of her best friend might be depending on these talismans later, so she successfully made each one of [Talisman of Numbness +2], [Talisman of Iron Skin +2], and [Talisman of Regeneration +2] in only ten tries.
Moreover, all of them have +2 effects!
'These three talismans should be enough. There is no need for more strength or speed to successfully undergo the evolution process, so I think I do not need to make [Talisman of Giant Strength] and [Talisman of Lightning Speed].' Tang Li Xue thought for a while, but she immediately frowned when she remembered the horrible black lightning that kept striking Hei Yinghao until now.
'Bingbing has ice elemental type power. It seems I need to make a strong talisman to increase her resistance to cold or frost!' Tang Li Xue concluded before taking her golden [Inscription Pen] again into her grasp and searching for the suitable rune in the list of Inscription rune in her mind.
'Water resistance rune... is not quite right.'
'Ice resistance... is too weak.'
'Sigh... why aren't there any stronger effect rune among these basic runes?'
'Wait... what if I combine the effects of these two runes into one?'
Tang Li Xue's topaz blue eyes shone brighter, and she began to inscribe both of the runes onto the blank talisman.
BOFF... BOFF... BOFF... BOFF... BOFF... BOFF...
Tang Li Xue failed many times, but she neither gave up nor anxious. On contrary, she became even more determined and focused.
When she failed, she immediately knew her mistake and fix it then repeated it again and again before she finally succeeded in her thirty-fifth tries!
Ding!
[Host successfully inscribed the Talisman of Water and Frost Resistance +3!]
[Inscriptionist's proficiency has increased!]
[Congratulation! Inscriptionist grade has been upgraded to level 1 (Apprentice)!]
Tang Li Xue stunned silly by the system notification.
There was a lot of new knowledge about inscription and runes injected into Tang Li Xue's mind, but she did not feel dizzy or headache at all like before because her Spirit stats already far higher than before.
She impatiently identified the talisman's effect with her Basic [All Knowing Eyes].
[Talisman of Water and Frost Resistance +3]
[Effect: Water and Frost Resistance +30%, Reduced the damage received from Water and Frost Elemental by 15% for 15 minutes.]
[+1 Effect: Water and Frost Resistance +15%, Reduced the damage received from Water and Frost Elemental by 10% for 5 minutes.]
[+2 Effect: Water and Frost Resistance +30%, Reduced the damage received from Water and Frost Elemental by 15% for 10 minutes.]
[+3 Effect: Water and Frost Resistance +45%, Reduced the damage received from Water and Frost Elemental by 20% for 15 minutes.]
Tang Li Xue jumped in surprise while held the [Talisman of Water and Frost Resistance +3] tightly in her grasp.
'[Talisman of Water and Frost Resistance +3]?! It has a +3 effect?! Uwehehehe... Finally, this is my second +3 talisman I managed to make!' Tang Li Xue laughed in pride.
"So this talisman can increase the Water and Frost Resistance by 120% and reduced the damage received from Water and Frost Elemental by 60% for 45 minutes! Oh My God, with this OP talisman, I am 100% sure Bingbing would pass her evolution safely!" Tang Li Xue licked her pinkish lips and skipping back to the back courtyard happily.
But her mood instantly plunged down to the bottom when she saw that the fierce black lightning still kept striking down mercilessly until now.
'At least it means that Silly Fox still alive until now... Come on, Silly Fox! You can do it!' Tang Li Xue mumbled and pointed her fist to the black cloud above Hei Yinghao to silently encourage him.
Tang Li Xue approached Bing Yi and asked her with a solemn tone: "How about it, Bingbing? Are you ready now?"
Bing Yi took a deep breath and nodded to Tang Li Xue with eyes full of determination.
"Close your eyes and open your mouth." Tang Li Xue told Bing Yi what to do like before, and Bing Yi followed it without any doubt.
Tang Li Xue threw four talismans onto Bing Yi at once!
The four talismans instantly entered Bing Yi's body and gave Bing Yi four different types of buffs!
Then Tang Li Xue took out one [Level Up Pill] from her system inventory and flicked it into Bing Yi's mouth.
When Bing Yi swallowed down the [Level Up Pill], she immediately felt her strength increasing again like before.
BANG~!!!
After the [Level Up Pill] increased Bing Yi's overall strength, Bing Yi's level broke from 40 to 41 in an instant.
Bing Yi thought the effect of [Level Up Pill] was over like previously, but she promptly realized that something was different.
The requirement for Bing Yi's evolution has been fulfilled, and the evolution process has triggered it!
Her evolution process has finally begun!
"Hopefully, everything will go smoothly this time." Tang Li Xue mumbled and prayed as she kept observing Bing Yi's evolution process nervously.
The temperature in the entire area kept dropping rapidly in an instant.
WENG... WENG... WENG...
The cloud above the area also became thicker and thicker.
"Don't tell me there will be lightning again this time?!" Tang Li Xue murmured while frowned deeper.
On contrary to Tang Li Xue's guess, there was no lightning or rain this time, but there was cold substance began to pour down from the sky.
'Is it snowing?' Tang Li Xue caught it with her hand and inspected it more closely.
'No, this is... ice?' Tang Li Xue widened her eyes in surprise.
At first, the ice was only at the size of a fingernail and completely harmless, but the ice became bigger and sharper as time goes by!
Even the cold frosty wind was also blowing stronger and stronger!
"What the hell! This is a fierce blizzard!" Tang Li Xue shouted as she immediately ran into the house.
Tang Li Xue looked at Bing Yi and found out that Bing Yi was already encased by thick ice like a cocoon.
