The little white dragon wasn't really angry; he was just a little overwhelmed by the misunderstanding that had occurred to him, and wanted his little brother to come out and comfort him.
After coming out, I noticed that my younger brother hadn't followed me out for a while, so I knew something was wrong.
Even if that brat really wanted to steal the cat, there's no better time than to steal it on the day he explicitly told him he was coming. It just doesn't make sense.
After figuring this out, Zhu Li obediently slipped back inside, hiding by the door and peeking in secretly.
On the couch, Shen Yunhao lay quietly, showing no intention of getting out of bed.
The little kitten was curled up in Shen Yunhao's arms, its nose twitching, fast asleep.
Shen Yunhao noticed the little white dragon turning back and sighed softly.
"Milk Tea isn't feeling well, she can't live without me right now..."
"What happened? What's wrong?"
Zhu Li's expression tightened, and she quickly entered the room. "This is the Guanghan Palace, after all. Could it be that someone else is causing you trouble?"
"No, not really... it's just..." Shen Yunhao raised his hand and tucked a few strands of hair from the girl in his arms behind her ear, revealing a pale face.
"It's just that Milk Tea overexerted herself with the spell, and her spiritual energy was depleted. I need to replenish her spiritual energy... but Milk Tea can't absorb it actively right now, so she's recovering very slowly."
"Spellcasting?"
The white dragon was dumbfounded. "With such low cultivation, how did she start casting spells?"
"I don't know either..."
Then, he recounted to Zhuli everything that had happened that afternoon.
After hearing this, Zhu Li became even more astonished, "Spiritual energy manifesting into a physical object? Really?"
"What? Is this difficult?"
Shen Yunhao blinked.
Zhu Li frowned, pondered for a moment, and then slowly said, "The phenomenon you described during the day could have three explanations, and each corresponds to one of three spells."
"The first is an illusion, which uses spiritual energy to distort light so that an object appears as a different thing, while in essence, the object itself remains unchanged."
Shen Yunhao had often heard of this kind of illusion. In the 21st century, even without spiritual energy, one could still use illusions by exploiting people's attention and blind spots.
"The second is the art of shape-borrowing, which transforms one thing into another. It has great limitations; the things that can be used for transformation are generally refined by the caster, such as paper talismans commonly used by human cultivators, or hair and scales of demons..."
"..."
Great Sage? Is that you?
"And the third... is what you mentioned, directly manipulating spiritual energy through soul power to manifest it into physical objects!"
Zhu Li took a deep breath: "Theoretically speaking, among the three techniques, creating something from nothing is the most difficult. To make something as ethereal as spiritual energy manifest as a physical object requires powerful soul strength and very skillful control over spiritual energy."
"However, these are all related to the physical objects that are conjured and the level of proficiency. For example... what you sword users often talk about as sword energy is a kind of spiritual energy materialization, and it is relatively simple."
“Those sword cultivators, even those only at the Soul Condensation Realm, can easily unleash a few sword energies. Because sword energies are created to injure people, their shapes are simple and random. With practice, they automatically generate themselves with a thought… But if you want them to create a blade-shaped sword energy, that would be very difficult; it would require them to distract themselves by manipulating their spiritual energy…”
Upon hearing this, Shen Yunhao immediately understood.
In other words, the invisible sword energy is actually the simplest, it is simply the release of spiritual energy with a sword.
However, someone like Nie Qingshuang, who can conjure a giant sword that can be seen by people with a wave of her hand, needs to have a very meticulous control over spiritual energy.
It also follows the principle of practice makes perfect.
Changing one thing at a time, and then changing it many times, naturally makes things easier...
"And speaking of Milk Tea, according to what you said, she can casually conjure a woolen cushion with her spiritual energy, and it looks exactly like the real thing, and you can even use it to lie down and sleep... I can say that among people in the Soul Refining stage, almost no one can do that!"
At this moment, Zhu Li looked at the sleeping Milk Tea on the couch and said in a deep voice, "Either she has conjured this thing many times and is very skilled at it, so she can do it so easily! Or... she is a magical genius who is one in a million!"
"..."
Shen Yunhao stroked his chin, lost in thought.
He felt that milk tea was a compromise.
It's unlikely that a cat could instantly conjure something like this, so Milk Tea must have done it before, but the silly cat himself didn't realize it.
However, from today's perspective, milk tea's talent is already obvious.
The Devouring Beast's cultivation level cannot exceed that of its master, so Milk Tea's cultivation level is at most only at the Iron Bone Realm...
Iron Bone Realm... In an era where everyone is competing for weapons and magical treasures, Milk Tea actually learned magic on her own without being taught by anyone. It's unheard of and unseen.
It's one thing to have that plush cushion, but the key point is that the milk tea shop clearly wanted to conjure up "him" later on!
The outline was already formed; if it weren't for the insufficient amount of spiritual energy, she would have actually succeeded!
All I can say is... the transformation of spiritual energy into a horse is terrifying!
After Ning Yuyao, Shen Yunhao discovered a second little genius, Fat Cat!
"Her current coma is not just due to the depletion of her spiritual energy, but most likely due to the overuse of her soul power, which has also depleted her mental energy..."
The little white dragon shook his head and sighed, "Judging from this, she won't wake up tonight. You'll need to stay here all night to replenish her spiritual energy... Well, you get some rest, and I'll come find you again tomorrow!"
Just as Zhu Li turned around, intending to leave, Shen Yunhao grabbed her sleeve.
"..."
For some reason, before Shen Yunhao even started speaking, the little white dragon trembled all over, a blush crept up its cheeks, and it said shyly.
"W-what are you doing?"
Shen Yunhao glanced at her, but didn't say anything. He just moved further into the bed with the milk tea in his arms.
"..."
really!
Seeing her brazenly shameless younger brother, Zhu Li was instantly filled with embarrassment: "You...you're going to die! What kind of nonsense are you thinking?"
"Didn't you say that Milk Tea wouldn't wake up tonight...? And even if she does wake up, so what? Milk Tea is very well-behaved!"
"You!" The little white dragon glared at him fiercely. "That...that won't do! How can you...how can you do this?"
But Shen Yunhao held her hand tightly and wouldn't let go. "Why can't we do this? Sister Li'er, I've missed you so much after not seeing you for months. What's wrong with us talking and chatting tonight?"
"Just talking and chatting?"
Zhu Li was stunned.
"What else can we do?"
Shen Yunhao blinked, his face full of innocence.
"I'll beat the shit out of you, you stinky little brother!"
