Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy is the combination of various elements contained within the entire sky. This has long been a consensus across the Nine Provinces Continent. Typically, aside from Professionals who can absorb Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy, certain items can also gather this energy, such as Summoning Books, magic wands, and quality Magical Weapons. Beyond that, there is only one other thing that contains Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy.
Unfortunately, Ye Huan had previously consumed such a thing: the inner pill of a magical beast!
Upon realizing that Al was not a first-level Professional, Weiyang couldn't help but feel a twinge of curiosity as he turned Al over. Despite Al's strong resistance, when Weiyang explained that he needed to investigate the source of the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy emanating from Al, Al readily complied, even going so far as to pull out everything he had on him.
There was an ancient-style wolf tooth necklace, a few pieces of silver smaller than fingernails that had turned slightly yellow, and a small box of cold noodles. Aside from that, all that remained on Al was a set of tattered clothing.
Weiyang casually rummaged through these three items. He tossed the box of noodles aside without a second thought and paid no mind to the wolf tooth necklace, instead focusing his attention on the silver pieces.
If he remembered correctly, silver exposed to air for an extended period typically turns black; seeing it turn yellow was already quite unreasonable. As he tried to feel the silver pieces, Weiyang's expression shifted to one of shock as he exclaimed, "Who wasted money like this, actually mixing the inner pill of an earth-type magical beast into silver?"
Earth-type Beast Inner Pill? Hearing what Weiyang said piqued everyone's curiosity. Zhang Ren quickly snatched two pieces of silver to examine them and soon discovered that, just as Weiyang mentioned, these silver pieces indeed contained a significant amount of earth-type magical elements. Perhaps due to the small quantity used, they emitted fluctuations of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy that were barely half of what a First-Level Warrior would produce.
While everyone was curiously studying the silver, Al seemed to have remembered something. He suddenly slapped his thigh and said to everyone, "I just recalled that the Professional Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy you mentioned should be what these silver pieces are emitting..."
After realizing where the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy was coming from, Ye Huan and the others couldn't help but roll their eyes at Al's late revelation, silently cursing him for not mentioning it sooner.
"Hehe, I forgot to tell you earlier; long ago, something was added to the silver in Liangzhou. It was extracted from a magical beast in the Northern Liang Mountain Range. They say it was to make the silver stronger; I can't say for sure if that's true..." Al explained with a smile.
Nodding in agreement, Weiyang could now confirm that the large number of Professionals they sensed in Liangzhou City was likely due to this type of silver. He shared this conclusion with Ye Huan.
Upon hearing this conclusion, Ye Huan felt confused again. Using a magical beast's inner pill to strengthen silver? Wasn't that absurd? But aside from that, what other purpose could these silver pieces containing Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy serve?
With heads full of questions, everyone found themselves pondering this mystery. As if heaven itself was moved by their thirst for knowledge, it began to rain lightly.
By this time in autumn, the weather had already started to turn cold. With the chilly autumn wind blowing through, it felt quite uncomfortable...
In such circumstances, thinking about why they would mix Beast Inner Pills into silver seemed impossible. The group resorted to casual conversation while Ye Huan introduced himself and his companions to Al to pass the time.
Of course, no matter what happened, Ye Huan and his companions would never reveal their true identities; they only told Al their names. Along the way, Ye Huan made sure to note down that the little princess claimed her name was ' Zhao Ziyu,' though he wasn't sure if it was true.
As night fell and rain poured down harder, their simple grass hut could barely shield them from the drenching droplets that fell like curtains through the roof onto Ye Huan and his companions. With the north wind blowing through as well, Ye Huan shivered involuntarily.
He was somewhat better off since he still wore a robe bought from a fabric shop. However, both the little princess and Ivy were left exposed to the rain; their bare arms and shoulders felt even colder now.
"Achoo..." Finally, when Ivy's black tight dress was completely soaked, she let out a heavy sneeze and shivered as she nestled beside the little princess.
Seeing this situation, Ye Huan felt compelled to do something. Looking around, a few relatively dry pieces of wood caught her eye. She hurriedly picked them up and placed them in the drier center of the grass hut before turning her gaze to Weiyang. "Weiyang, stop sitting there like a fool! Hurry up and conjure a fireball to ignite these woods!"
"Tch, do you think I don't want to warm up? It's raining in this area right now; the fire element can't possibly condense!" Weiyang tightened her robe in frustration, her voice filled with deep resentment.
Hearing Weiyang's words reminded Ye Huan that a magician's ability to cast spells is largely related to the nearby Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy. With the rain falling, the air was saturated with water elements, making it impossible for fire elements to appear.
Feeling dejected, Ye Huan turned her head and looked at Al, hoping to ask him if he had any sparks or something similar. To her surprise, in such circumstances, Al had actually fallen asleep. This left Ye Huan utterly speechless as she could only resentfully pull out the Summoning Book...
"What the hell, Ye Huan! What are you doing?"
Watching the 2012 Arms Compendium materialize out of thin air, coupled with a significant amount of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy gathering around it, Weiyang jumped back in fright and hurriedly approached Ye Huan. She grabbed one of Ye Huan's arms, fearing that she might be thinking of something reckless.
Based on her days spent with Ye Huan, Weiyang knew that everything in the 2012 Arms Compendium was extraordinarily terrifying—firearms that could shoot 'steel beans' and grenades that could explode; all of these could produce 'fire.'
But using firearms and grenades to start a fire? Wasn't that taking things a bit too far?
Thinking about this made Weiyang cling tightly to Ye Huan, unwilling to let her open the Summoning Book.
Their commotion drew the attention of the little princess and even Al, who had been sleeping. Al rubbed his sleepy eyes and muttered reproachfully, "Hey, what are you all making noise about?"
What were they making noise about? It was all to prevent Ye Huan from opening the Summoning Book!
Weiyang could already imagine that if Ye Huan really opened the Summoning Book and used a grenade to start a fire, not only would their little grass hut be blown away, but they might also be sent flying into the sky.
As she thought about this, Weiyang shivered and clung tightly to Ye Huan while shouting at Zhang Ren, "Zhang Ren, come over quickly! Ye Huan is about to play with fire!"
"Get off me! What's with all this fuss over lighting some dry wood?" Struggling in Weiyang's grip like an aggrieved little wife, Ye Huan found it impossible to break free as Weiyang held on tightly. It was clear that she was determined to resist Ye Huan's actions.
Looking at the two of them in confusion, Al spoke up fairly, "I say, that fat one—since Ye Huan wants to light a fire, just let her do it. What's the big deal? I’m feeling a bit cold myself..."
Hearing someone support Ye Huan made Weiyang feel like she was about to lose her mind. Lighting a fire wasn't a big deal; on a sunny day, letting her do it a hundred or eighty times would be no problem. But now asking someone like Ye Huan—who couldn't use magic—to start a fire? What could she possibly use?
While Weiyang was feeling frustrated over this matter, Zhang Ren suddenly realized what was going on. Thinking about what was inside Ye Huan's Summoning Book made him anxious too; he wanted to help Weiyang. Just as he was about to step forward, the little princess tugged at his clothes.
Looking down in surprise, he saw the little princess with an odd expression asking Zhang Ren, "Zhang Ren, where are you going? If Ye Huan wants to light a fire, just let her do it."
"Well, Ye Huan saving the little princess time and again really paid off. From his initial coldness towards her, she has now started to speak up for him..."
"I say, Zhao Ziyu, do you remember what’s in the Ye Huan’s Summoning Book? Fire? I'm really afraid he might set us ablaze."
Since there were outsiders present and Liangzhou still belonged to the Southern Xiongnu Empire, Zhang Ren could only call out the name of the little princess, Zhao Ziyu, with a hint of urgency on his face.
How could he not be anxious? If he wasn’t, he would be waiting for reincarnation!
Seeing the impatience on Zhang Ren's face, the little princess recalled the scene from the palace when the Hell Serpent met its demise. Realizing this, she quickly withdrew her hand and instructed, " Zhang Ren, hurry over and help! No matter what, we must get Ye Huan to put away the Summoning Book!"
"Understood!"
With the little princess's command, Zhang Ren joined the fray, tightly holding onto Ye Huan along with Weiyang, like an octopus. Those who knew what was happening understood they were preventing Ye Huan from igniting a fire; those who didn’t might think there was some untold story among the three...
After a chaotic moment, being tightly embraced by two drenched men was quite awkward. Frustrated, Ye Huan let out a loud shout, "Stop it all of you!"
To be fair, after Ye Huan single-handedly defeated the Black-Bellied Bear Spider, his authority gradually established among them. Sensing that Ye Huan seemed genuinely angry, both Zhang Ren and Weiyang instinctively released their hold on him, looking somewhat at a loss.
Feeling frustrated while holding the 2012 Arms Compendium, after Zhang Ren and Weiyang settled down, Ye Huan unhesitatingly flipped to page nine of the compendium and presented it before them, saying:
"Look at this! What do you see?"
