-Let's fight, - while I was thinking about my future affairs, I withdrew into myself and did not follow the surrounding situation, so I missed the moment when a fifteen-meter clubfoot approached me with the accuracy of a dry cargo ship, which was simply burning with fighting excitement.

-Hmm, well, come on, - I didn't pay attention to him, now I had a moment to study him better, he did not feel negative feelings towards me, his eyes burned only with fighting excitement, while his behavior looked like a ten-year-old child.

Well, beasts of the bear-type spirit are not characterized by extreme cunning, and he was always next to Xue 'Di, which is also not particularly emotional, which means at least his emotional intelligence is equal to a child, so for now we will consider him as such, fight and show whoever is in charge here will not be superfluous, you need to immediately distribute social roles.

After I agreed, he immediately attacked with his claws, while being close to me, so it would not be convenient to hit with his paws, but remembering the servicemen of his past world, with all the speed, strength, and mental phrase "For the Airborne Forces" "Hit him with his head, sending the bear flying a hundred meters. However, the clubfoot was not at a loss and managed to breathe an ice storm into me in flight, which greatly damaged the earth's surface beneath me, but I didn't even have a scratch, now I need to try very hard to leave at least a small notch on me.

-Follow me, our battle will destroy half of the island, and I still have to live on it, - And without listening to his answer flew towards the hills that were to the west of the lake and were not inhabited by the Bing Bing clan, so that there we can disperse to nevertheless, even if the island is covered with a centuries-old layer of ice soaked with spiritual energy, he will not stand the battle of two hundred-thousand-year-old beasts of the spirit for a long time, not to mention it's small size and a high chance of interrupting the girls' cultivation.

Having flown a few minutes, he collapsed in the middle of the snow-covered hills, after which he turned towards Xiao Bai, which did not even interrupt, and immediately went on the attack. Without becoming exchanged for small tricks, he immediately released his domain, but did not deprive him of his chances of success and only slowed it down. Even before, he could not keep up with my speed, but now, when he slowed down by half, he turned into an ordinary punching bag, but apparently, he has a lot of fighting experience, since after he fell under the influence of my domain, he released his, although I could not understand what he could do, since his domain was limited only by himself and a small space around him and did not affect me.

- Interesting, - Immediately after this we began to exchange for blows, recognizing the strength of the opponent, while here the clubfoot was suppressed, because of its peculiarity, not only my paws were covered with ice scales, but also the wings, which from the side generally represented a sculpture made of ice, but because of this, in terms of strength they were not inferior to my scales and in battle, I could quite easily use 7 limbs at once, while sometimes using my head in something for which it was not intended so that he could only passively defend himself ... And I must say that his protection is also decent, even if I used about 50% of my pure physical strength, which should correspond to an ordinary ice dragon of a hundred thousand years old, he got off with only scratches on his skin, which was already a manifestation of his talent.

-GRAA, stop playing, I know that you are holding back, fight with me in full force, - After ten minutes of a continuous purely physical scuffle, when the clubfoot was getting angrier and angrier, he gave it away. I thought that he was angry that he was suppressed, but no, this fighting maniac was not satisfied that I did not fight with him at full strength.

- Well, since you insist, - with a laugh, I began to beat him at full strength, while carefully beating every piece of his body, and for this maniac, at least, I felt that he was in terrible pain, but he continued to insist on continuing, so in the end, I simply knocked him out with a strong blow of the tail to the back of the head and treated his wounds with an ointment of several earthy herbs, took his carcass to my place of cultivation, after which, leaving it at the entrance, began to engage in a comprehensive study of new knowledge and materials. Anyway, now mom, Bing'er, and Xue'er entered a state of deep meditation and this will last at least a week, the snow empress will also consume the immortal ice orchid for about the same amount of time, but nothing will happen to the clubfoot, even if I beat him, but I have not touched the internal and vital organs, so he only needs to lie down, although this may take several weeks to fully recover.

And since I didn't have much time, the first thing I did was go through the library and the various scrolls from the treasury more carefully, sorting them out to the rest of the books and scrolls that I had. Of course, I put off everything that interested me, and this, not counting the methods of making spiritual guides were self-created spiritual skills and meditation techniques.

With the latter it was the worst, now it is clear why Tang San could develop more quickly, and his spiritual strength had special properties and higher quality compared to the rest, as far as I remember, there were 9 levels in his development technique, and so, he had exactly development technique, it is strange that people thought of creating independent spiritual skills of an internal type, like the same body technique of the mad King Kong, which forced the body's metabolism and squeezed internal organs, bringing the practitioner to the maximum physical maximum possible for him, but they never thought of creating technique of spiritual development.

All the techniques for developing spiritual power that I had were reduced to a certain route of spiritual energy flowing along certain meridians, and meditation itself, which, in principle, coped with their function and increased the total amount of spiritual power, but did not affect its quality and the only thing, what influenced this, there were medicinal materials and breakthroughs of spiritual strength. It is a pity that I do not have enough time and a complete lack of experimental subjects, which is why it is now impossible to start creating development techniques, but this task is also paramount, so it should not be postponed for a long time.

It was also interesting to read about the methods of making space rings and other storage places, the only regret was that they did not have a way of making space rings for storing living beings, but there were assumptions that it did not interfere with testing. It's also funny that the runes responsible for the inner space itself are applied by spiritual intuition or mental strength, the size of the inner space depends on the mental development of the manufacturer, the amount of energy used in the manufacture, and the quality of the material itself, so I may well try to make space rings myself. and, given that spiritual sages with their reserves of spiritual strength obtained rings of 20-40 cubic meters of space, then I can easily get at least several thousand cubic meters, of course with the material of appropriate quality, but a thousand cubic meters of space, ahahaha.

When I was in ecstasy from the opened possibilities, a monstrous impulse of icy energy came from outside, which caused goosebumps even for me. Well, here the snow empress has woken up, and apparently, she has not made little progress in development. Ehhh, as much as I would not like to immediately start trying to make space rings, but Xue'Di cannot be ignored, after all, the guest is after all, so, grumbling, I went to the exit from my cave.
