Chapter 49: Heat Things Up or Turn Them Off (I)

Chapter 49: Chapter 49: Heat Things Up or Turn Them Off (I) Three Ultimate Attributes!!! Ling Bai’s heart surged with tumultuous waves that refused to settle for a long time. Electrolux’s bold and crazy idea was something even a reincarnated person like him hadn’t dared to contemplate! Absurd! Absolutely absurd! Yet amidst the absurdity, there was a subtle hint of reasonableness! Facing the Death Abyss Spider Emperor, which possessed Rakshasa Evil Power and Ultimate Death, only the Seraphim with three Ultimate Attributes could suppress it! "Please teach me how to achieve this!" Ling Bai’s face flushed with excitement. He... no, any Spirit Master on the Douluo Continent would absolutely be unable to resist the temptation of a Martial Spirit with three Ultimate attributes! Electrolux knew Ling Bai was eager, so he didn’t deliberately keep him in suspense. He smiled and said, "It can be difficult, but also simple. You need to acquire Heaven and Earth Treasures with Ultimate Light and Ultimate Fire attributes. Plant the seeds of these two Ultimate Attributes deep within the origin of your Seraphim Martial Spirit. This old man will naturally assist you with the rest of the work." "This..." Ling Bai’s brain CPU was running at full capacity. Ultimate Fire was simple. There was an immortal herb called Infernal Delicate Apricot in the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well of Sunset Forest that happened to possess the Ultimate Fire attribute. However, Ultimate Light seemed rather troublesome... Wait a minute. Ling Bai suddenly sensed the abundant light energy surrounding him, distant yet right before his eyes! The Ancient Golden Tree! "Elder Yi, can the Ancient Golden Tree be used?" Ling Bai hurriedly asked. Electrolux nodded. "We can, but the energy required for an Ultimate Seed is comparable to that of a 100,000-year spirit beast. Losing so much energy all at once might harm the foundation of the Ancient Golden Tree." "Uh..." Ling Bai suddenly fell into a stupor. Over a dozen Elders of the Sea God Pavilion resided within the Ancient Golden Tree. Damaging its foundation was almost akin to digging up Shrek’s ancestral graves. The moment he dared to make a move, the Elders would chop him into mincemeat in the next second. ’The Ultimate Light Seed... let’s discuss this later!’ In any case, there was still a long way to go before his spirit power reached rank 70. At worst, he could ask the Clan Head of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Clan to issue a bounty across the entire continent. Wealth could drive away ghosts and move gods. With the clan’s terrifying wealth that could rival nations, Ling Bai believed there must be a way to obtain a 100,000-year Heaven and Earth Treasure with the Ultimate Light attribute. Knock, knock, knock! Suddenly, there was a knocking sound from outside. After exchanging a few brief words with Electrolux, Ling Bai swiftly withdrew from his Spiritual Sea. Creak— The wooden door made from the Ancient Golden Tree emitted a hoarse sliding sound as it opened. Standing gracefully in the doorway was Ma Xiaotao. She had specially changed into a different outfit. A light, thin red short skirt clung to her figure, perfectly accentuating her voluptuous and alluring curves. Her snow-white skin subtly peeked out from beneath the fabric. Her fiery red hair cascaded over her shoulders like a vibrant waterfall, flowing down to her waist and radiating a dazzling brilliance. Her long, shapely legs were clad in black thigh-high stockings, paired with nude-colored high heels that elongated her stature. This ensemble highlighted her fair complexion, making her appear both radiant and irresistibly seductive. However, upon witnessing this sight, Ling Bai felt a chill run down his spine. This woman is Ma Xiaotao?! Something was definitely off, very much off! His instinctive caution immediately heightened. Ling Bai fought the urge to exclaim, ’Hey! What demon dares to impersonate our Inner Courtyard’s Active Volcano?’ Instead, he half-closed the door and cautiously inquired, "What brings you here?" "We’ve been neighbors for a few days, after all. Won’t you invite me in for a chat?" Ma Xiaotao didn’t wait for his response. She lowered her head and walked past Ling Bai straight into the room, not treating herself as an outsider at all. Ling Bai caught a whiff of a rich rose fragrance wafting toward him. She... she even wore perfume! The refreshing fragrance carried a hint of soul-stealing allure, as if a smooth, delicate hand was gently caressing an itch in one’s heart. To tell the truth, Ling Bai felt unprecedentedly nervous this time. They had only been apart for a maximum of two hours, so how could Ma Xiaotao alter her demeanor so drastically? He would rather fight her in the Spirit Dueling Arena in a fair and square match! Ling Bai shut the door firmly and closely followed Ma Xiaotao into the room. His tone grew more serious. "If you have something to say, I hope you’ll be direct." Ma Xiaotao kept her back turned to Ling Bai. In her mind, the conversation she had with Yan Shaoze earlier replayed like a slideshow. === "Teacher, you want me to se... seduce Ling Bai?!" "Xiaotao, don’t be so quick to refuse. This is also a good thing for you. The Phoenix Evil Flame within your body has been temporarily extinguished by the Seraphim and won’t erupt for another year. But what about after that? Will you seek Ling Bai’s help once more?" "I..." "Of course, he’ll help while he’s at the academy, but he’s a disciple of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Clan. He will eventually return to his clan after graduation. What will you do when the evil fire resurges then?" "Teacher, let me think about it. He’s only eleven years old. I feel a bit awkward making a move on him. Besides, he might not even like my type!" "That’s not important. Boys are most likely to fall for the first woman who enlightens them. You’re so beautiful, and your Martial Spirit talent is high. Ling Bai possesses the God-level Martial Spirit Seraphim, and his looks need no further praise. In over a hundred years, your teacher has not seen a male more outstanding than Ling Bai. Being with him wouldn’t be beneath you. In the future, the academy will even consider the two of you as its core..." === At this point, Ma Xiaotao suddenly lifted her head. Her face and ears flushed a deep red, and her entire body temperature felt like it was nearing that of a steamed crab. She finally made a resolute decision. Turning around, she pushed Ling Bai onto the bed with both hands. She then lightly leaned against the edge of the bed and crossed her legs. Her right hand lifted her cloud-like fiery red hair, while her left hand slowly tugged at her shoulder strap. She bit her red lips lightly with her pearly teeth and threw Ling Bai a coquettish glance. "Big Sister, if you can seduce, then seduce; if not, let’s cool things down a bit." Ling Bai’s single sentence shattered Ma Xiaotao’s resolve and caused her to freeze on the spot. "Do you even know how to do this?" Ling Bai rubbed his forehead while cringing. "Which idiot taught you to bite your upper lip like that? And that coquettish glance of yours... that was supposed to be coquettish, right? Your eyes were practically bulging out of their sockets! Are you trying to scare me to death? Learn from someone like Dugu Lin. That’s what you call natural-born charm. Her every frown and smile is a beautiful sight to behold. You, on the other hand, look so sternly determined, as if you’re valiantly sacrificing yourself to feed a tiger!" "Ah, ah, ah! Stop criticizing me!" No matter how boisterous and hot-tempered Ma Xiaotao usually was, she remained a pure, innocent maiden at heart. Doing such things was embarrassing enough, and now she completely lost her composure. She irritably grabbed her long hair and shouted angrily: "Teacher wants me to seduce you, but the problem is, how would I know the first thing about seducing a man? You know, when I was making those weird gestures at you just now, my toes were curling desperately!" "Actually... you do have some natural advantages." Ling Bai sat up and gently patted her smooth, fair shoulder to comfort her. "Forget it, forget it. That old geezer keeps giving me lousy ideas all day!" Far away on the shores of Sea God Lake, Dean Yan Shaoze, who had been full of anticipation, couldn’t help but let out a huge sneeze. Ma Xiaotao faced Ling Bai and stared straight at him. "Doing that kind of crooked stuff is not my style. Let’s have an open and frank talk instead!"
