Ouchi Taming the Cat, starting with the Ten Tiger Forms!

Chapter 810 The way to break the situation
The matter came to an end only after the uncle and nephew had both cried bitterly.

Xiao Baiyun was left in the main hall. Zen Master Jingyuan and several other Buddhist masters stayed to accompany him and check if there were any useful clues here.

The rest of the people, led by Li Xuan, followed Xiao Lingshuang to the Beiliang database.

There is a large safe area in the imperial palace with the main hall where the ice sculpture of Genkoku Jun is located as the center.

It's still snowing here, but it's not negatively affected by the cold snap.

It was also thanks to this safe zone that Xiao Lingshuang was able to grow up safely and develop impressive skills.

Otherwise, even with sufficient supplies, Xiao Lingshuang might not be able to hold on until today.

There are cellmates in prison.

Xiao Lingshuang is just a little child. If she were really trapped in the main hall, even if she could survive, she would have serious psychological problems.

In fact, everyone has also discovered it vaguely.

Although Xiao Lingshuang looks like an adult, his mind is actually a bit immature, and most of the time his thinking is still like that of a child.

After all, there is no social skills for her to grow up in such an environment.

After Princess Ankang accompanied her in crying for a while, Xiao Lingshuang's emotions gradually calmed down.

She didn't look at Xiao Baiyun again.

Xiao Lingshuang might also understand in her heart that she had hated the wrong person for so many years.

But she couldn't let it go for a moment.

That was the only reason that kept her alive until now.

Xiao Lingshuang was still unable to completely let go of the hatred in her heart, but she could still clearly feel a huge emptiness in her heart.

She didn't know how to fill the void.

Fortunately, Princess Ankang and others are still there.

They brought new hope to Xiao Lingshuang.

Dispel the cold wave.

Regardless of whether it is feasible or not, it is at least a way to divert Xiao Lingshuang's attention.

"This is the library. There are eight other libraries of the same size." Xiao Lingshuang introduced to everyone.

Under her leadership, everyone came to a room full of bookshelves.

Except for the four walls, the room is filled with bookshelves piled with books.

This is just a huge room, and its collection of books is definitely not as large as the Qianxing Pavilion in the Daxing Palace.

But if there are eight more rooms like this, then it’s hard to say.

It seems that the collection of books in Beiliang is no less than that in Daxing.

"Most of the books in this room are related to cultivation."

"The other rooms contain different types of books, but the books about the cold wave are scattered in different rooms because they are all analyses from different perspectives."

Xiao Lingshuang introduced them and casually pulled out a few books from the bookshelf closest to the door.

"These books are all about cold waves."

Princess Ankang took the book and found that there were many marks left on it.

Apparently, Xiao Lingshuang also often read these books.

"Cousin, you were only eight years old back then. How did you manage to understand all those books and achieve such great accomplishments?" Princess Ankang asked curiously.

Speaking of this, Xiao Lingshuang's eyes began to turn red again.

"I was enlightened at an early age. I could recognize quite a few words at that time, and my father also laid a good foundation for my cultivation."

"But later when I read books by myself, there were still many words I couldn't understand, so I could only learn by myself through other books. I learned most of it this way, and then I carefully avoided the words I couldn't understand."

"I have only studied the sword manuals with detailed illustrations. I was afraid that I would misunderstand the ones with text, so I didn't dare to study on my own."

Xiao Lingshuang seemed a little embarrassed.

She was a member of the royal family of Northern Liang, but she couldn't recognize a complete set of words even at this age.

But Princess Ankang and others had no intention of looking down on Xiao Lingshuang. Instead, they admired her even more.

Although Xiao Lingshuang is a little childish, she is obviously gifted, otherwise she wouldn't have been able to teach herself to such an extent.

Nan Fengxuan, who is a master of swordsmanship, couldn't help but sigh: "No wonder your swordsmanship is so simple and sharp, almost all of it is evolved from basic swordsmanship."

"A genius, truly an extraordinary genius!"

Nan Fengxuan, the sword master of Qianren Sword Pavilion, couldn't help but marvel at Xiao Lingshuang.

Nan Fengxuan had also seen people who were more talented than Xiao Lingshuang.

But Li Xuan is the one chosen by heaven, and is not comparable at all.

Xiao Lingshuang's talent lies in her innocent heart.

Although she is young, she has carved out her own path by studying basic swordsmanship.

To some extent, Xiao Lingshuang has already mastered the swordsmanship to perfection, and his method is very pure. Even in Qianren Sword Pavilion, there is no such talent.

When Xiao Lingshuang saw the beautiful older sister in front of her praising her so sincerely, her pretty face, which was as cold as ice, suddenly turned red.

"It's actually nothing."

Xiao Lingshuang twisted her hands together, looking shy.

When Princess Ankang saw this, she couldn't help but laugh.

My cousin seems to be cold and aloof, but she is actually very lovely.

"What about your power, meow?"

Xiao Lingshuang, who was still blushing, was stunned when she heard the strange voice.

"Where did this kid come from with such a weird habit?"

Xiao Lingshuang thought in her heart, looked around, and finally followed the direction of the voice and fell into Princess Ankang's arms.

Xiao Lingshuang blinked her big eyes, which were red from crying, and stared at Li Xuan with some uncertainty.

"What are you looking at, meow?"

"Have you ever seen such a cute little cat?"

Li Xuan's mouth was slightly open, and although his voice was still childish, his tone was very arrogant.

"Hey!?"

Xiao Lingshuang was so frightened that she screamed and backed away, hiding behind a distant bookshelf, leaving only one eye exposed, staring at Li Xuan nervously.

"Cousin, what is that in your arms? Why is it talking?"

Seeing Xiao Lingshuang's reaction, Princess Ankang and others couldn't help but laugh.

"Don't be afraid, cousin. This is Xuan, the cat I raise. Although he is a little naughty, he has a good heart."

Princess Ankang comforted Xiao Lingshuang, wanting her to not be afraid of Li Xuan.

Princess Ankang held Li Xuan and stretched him forward.

Li Xuan immediately cooperated by showing his two rows of little teeth and smiling harmlessly.

Li Xuan broke free from Princess Ankang's arms and slowly approached Xiao Lingshuang step by step.

Seeing that Li Xuan was small and didn't seem like he would hurt anyone, Xiao Lingshuang was about to breathe a sigh of relief.

At this moment, Li Xuan stood up suddenly and threatened Xiao Lingshuang with his fangs and claws.

Xiao Lingshuang was so frightened that she jumped onto the beam, looking even more like a cat than Li Xuan.

Li Xuan grinned heartlessly.

"This silly girl is more interesting than those little kids in the palace."

While Li Xuan was grinning foolishly, Princess Ankang walked up to him angrily and hit him on the head with a loud bang.

Xiao Lingshuang, who was hiding on the beam, was so frightened when she heard the noise that her eyes widened. She immediately condensed an ice sword to protect herself and refused to go down no matter what.

"Stinky Ah Xuan, why are you scaring my cousin?"

"She's already been through a lot today. What if she's provoked by you again?"

Princess Ankang criticized.

Li Xuan licked his lips, pretending not to hear, and looked at the ice sword in Xiao Lingshuang's hand.

"How did you make this ice sword?"

"And the cold energy you cast earlier."

This time, Li Xuan sent a message to Xiao Lingshuang.

Although the voice sounded different, Xiao Lingshuang knew it was still Li Xuan's voice.

Because Li Xuan had been staring at the ice sword in her hand.

Xiao Lingshuang had seen the method of transmitting sound in books, but this was the first time he experienced it personally.

Seeing that Li Xuan was held back in Princess Ankang's arms, Xiao Lingshuang hid on the beam and replied:

"I practiced according to the book, but I couldn't cultivate true qi. However, the qi and blood in my body became stronger and stronger. Later, I was able to control this power without realizing it."

Li Xuan smiled helplessly.

The lower three grades cannot develop such power.

It seemed that Xiao Lingshuang had misunderstood and thought that her strange strength was due to the power of qi and blood.

This is true for her and Xiao Baiyun as well.

Because of the cold and the white crystals absorbed along the way, Princess Ankang's physique is no longer that of a human.

This power should come from the cold wave.

Those affected by the cold wave underwent some changes.

Of course, this change only benefits a few lucky people.

Most people died in the cold wave or turned into monsters like zombies.

And physical strengthening is obviously not the only change brought about by the cold wave.

The power of ice condensation mastered by Xiao Lingshuang should be another manifestation.

Li Xuan is still unable to confirm whether this is Xiao Lingshuang's special ability or Princess Ankang can also master this power.

Princess Ankang consoled Xiao Lingshuang for a long time before she dared to come down from the beam.

But he didn't dare to approach Li Xuan easily.

She grew up alone here, so naturally she had never seen a cat.

She had seen some illustrations in books, but the books never said that cats could talk.

Li Xuan had no ill will towards Xiao Lingshuang. He just wanted to tease her because she was crying pitifully today.

Look at her now. Xiao Lingshuang has almost forgotten about her sadness and is only concerned about guarding against Li Xuan.

Xiao Lingshuang then took them to the rest of the library and moved all the books about the cold wave in. They returned to the main hall and found several masters taking care of the deeply asleep Xiao Baiyun.

"Donor Baiyun is too sad and exhausted. He needs to rest." Zen Master Jingyuan explained and couldn't help but sigh at the end.

Even though they are monks, they still find it difficult to control themselves when they see such a human tragedy.

Xiao Baiyun is also a poor man.

He wanted to explain to his father and prove his innocence, but it was already impossible.

Xiao Lingshuang glanced at Xiao Baiyun, then silently withdrew her gaze.

For some reason, she always thought of her father when she looked at Xiao Baiyun.

Xiao Lingshuang also hoped to see her father again.

Li Xuan just took a quick glance and arranged for everyone to rest and take some time to take care of Xiao Lingshuang.

She has had almost no contact with the outside world, and Li Xuan hopes that others can help her gradually adapt to how to communicate normally with others.

As for himself, he immediately began to study the information he found in the library.

Others also came to help.

After all, there are too many books and Li Xuan can't read them all by himself.

He could directly record some martial arts techniques, but he did not have this ability for other books and could only read them page by page.

Among all the people present, the hermits of Xige were the most adept at this kind of research work.

These six people in the West Pavilion had been studying the runes left by their predecessors all day long and had accumulated a wealth of research experience.

Now it has found its place.

The hermits of Xige have not had any outstanding performance since the cold wave.

However, during their daily rest period, they need to use runes to reinforce the holy fire space purified by Li Xuan.

Now they are more excited than anyone else when it comes to studying cold waves.

Everyone is concentrating on finding ways to dispel the cold wave.

Time flies by.

After experiencing a few days of sadness, Xiao Baiyun slowly recovered and quietly participated in contributing his own strength.

He also realized that it was useless to wallow in sadness.

His father didn't want to see him like this either.

However, Xiao Baiyun and Xiao Lingshuang still didn't talk to each other during this period.

The rift between them was not so easy to resolve.

Even if it was a misunderstanding, it would be difficult to ease the relationship between the two without the right opportunity.

But now is not the time to focus on that.

Li Xuan explained the current situation to everyone.

He no longer has the strength to lead everyone closer to the core of the cold wave.

Therefore, they had to think of other ways to weaken the power of the cold wave while allowing them to get closer to the core of the cold wave.

They have always known very little about cold waves, and now these records from Beiliang have become a new breakthrough.

By reading these records and using some clues, Li Xuan deduced Beiliang's Tiandao realm methods.

According to legend, the first king of Beiliang was the first person to lead the people through the cold wave.

In the past, cold waves were natural disasters that brought huge casualties to this land.

However, the founding monarch of Northern Liang led the people to successfully overcome the cold wave for the first time, and then established a powerful Northern Liang.

This is also the beginning of the cold wave turning from a natural disaster into a good omen.

Through various records, plus the current state of Lord Yuan, Li Xuan judged that Beiliang's Heavenly Dao Realm methods were most likely closely related to the cold wave.

There is no doubt that Beiliang's Tiandao realm methods are the changes of Yin and Yang Qi that are biased towards ice attributes, and there are also magical methods of risking death and then surviving.

This can be confirmed from various records in books and from the situation in Beiliang at that time.

It’s a pity that Li Xuan couldn’t find Beiliang’s Yin-Yang skills.

Xiao Lingshuang and Xiao Baiyun knew nothing about this. They didn't even know the name of the technique. They only knew it was related to Beiliang's totem, the Ice Phoenix.

According to Xiao Baiyun, Beiliang's Yin-Yang skills and Heavenly Dao realm methods are deeply bound to their throne.

Historically, only the monarch of Northern Liang could control it.

Li Xuan therefore specially studied the throne placed in the main hall, but found nothing unusual.

He searched for a long time, but found nothing in the end, so he had to give up looking for the Beiliang Yin-Yang skills.

But even so, it was not completely without gain for them.

After combining various clues, the hermits of Xige came up with a method worth a try.

One day, they came to the border of the palace's safe zone.

The hermits of Xige asked Li Xuan to come forward to conduct an experiment.

Since they began studying the cold wave, the hermits of Xige have been extremely active and have put forward many useful conjectures.

Therefore, everyone is actually quite looking forward to the solution they proposed.

The hermits of the West Pavilion took out a blue brick engraved with runes and handed it to Li Xuan.

"God of destiny, please inject the power of holy fire into it."

Li Xuan did as he was told.

The rune was hollow, and as Li Xuan injected the power of holy fire into it, the hollow part was filled with gold.

Li Xuan has now cultivated the Lunas Sutra to perfection, and can tell at a glance that this is a rune that stores power.

He seemed to understand the thinking of the hermits in Xige to some extent.

The hermits of the West Pavilion probably wanted to use this method to accumulate the power of the holy fire and then dispel the cold wave in one fell swoop.

This is indeed a feasible approach, but it will take years.

But it has to be said that this may be the only feasible solution at the moment.

The power of holy fire plus the power of runes, this is exactly the solution Li Xuan had anticipated before entering the cold wave.

However, the cold wave has been accumulating for many years, and it will take time for them to dispel it.

After Li Xuan filled the hollow rune with gold, the hermits of the West Pavilion did not conduct the experiment immediately, but instead invited Xiao Lingshuang out.

"Miss Xiao, it's up to you next?"

"Me?" Xiao Lingshuang asked, pointing at her nose.

These days, she sincerely felt the magical powers of Princess Ankang and her group.

Compared to them, Xiao Lingshuang felt that he just had a bit of strength.

No matter in terms of strength or wisdom, I can't compare to them.

Therefore, she gradually determined her role as a supporting role.

But today, the hermits of the West Pavilion invited her out, which really made her confused.

"That's right, Miss Xiao, please use your ice-condensing power to carve along the boundaries of these runes." The hermits of the West Pavilion solemnly requested.

Now no one can understand the actions of the hermits in the West Pavilion.

Everyone watched silently, wanting to see what effect this step would have.

"okay, I get it."

Xiao Lingshuang didn't waste any words and immediately carved runes on the blue brick. Then he used ice to condense a small carving knife and carefully carved along the edge of the rune.

Xiao Lingshuang's swordsmanship is quite good, so his hands are very steady.

The hermits of the West Pavilion did not let Li Xuan sit idle. They took out another blue brick and asked him to continue infusing it with the power of the holy fire.

By the time he had finished infusing the power of the holy fire again, Xiao Lingshuang's work had also been completed.

The hermits of the West Pavilion took the first completed blue brick and placed it outside the safe zone.

There was no protection from Li Xuan's Holy Fire Space, nor was it affected by Yuan Guojun's ice sculpture.

"Everyone, please take a look."

The processed blue bricks fell quietly on the snow, without any changes occurring.

"..."

Everyone silently looked back at the hermits of the West Pavilion, waiting for their explanation.

The hermits in the West Pavilion looked very confident and it was obvious that they were not in trouble.

"Man of Destiny, can you sense the power of the runes on the blue bricks?" the hermits of the West Pavilion asked Li Xuan.

Li Xuan nodded. He only needed a thought to detonate the power of the holy fire on the blue bricks.

The hermits of Xige nodded with satisfaction.

"This is the ability that the power of holy fire and the power of runes should have when combined."

"But now we have Miss Xiao to help us."

As the hermits of the West Pavilion spoke, they asked Xiao Lingshuang to do the same with the second blue brick.

“Everyone can reach out and take a look at the blue bricks.”

The hermits of the West Pavilion stretched out their hands to try it first, and then said to everyone.

Without waiting for others to react, Li Xuan was the first to hand over the cat's paw.

The next moment, his eyes widened and he turned to look at Xiao Lingshuang who was carving the second blue brick.

After Li Xuan stretched out his claws, he didn't feel anything unusual.

It's chilly during the cold wave.

Although the safe area in the palace was not negatively affected by the cold wave, it was actually not much warmer.

But the blue bricks were clearly thrown outside the safe zone, and Li Xuan did not use the Holy Fire Space. But when he stretched out his cat claws, he still did not feel the negative impact of the cold wave.

Li Xuan did not detonate the power of the holy fire, and the cold wave near the blue bricks was not dispelled.

The only possibility is the change brought about by Xiao Lingshuang.

After she carved on the rune, she actually expanded the safe zone.

That piece of blue brick actually became the new safe zone.

But how is this possible?

Li Xuan immediately used the law of reincarnation to analyze the power on the blue bricks.

The next moment, he got a guess.

"Xiao Lingshuang's power is a manifestation of Beiliang's Heavenly Dao Realm skills!"
