Longevity starts with choosing Hextech enhancement

Chapter 197: Fourth-level Spiritual Fire: Burning Demon!

Master Shouyuan seemed to have misunderstood something, but he seemed to have regained his spirits, with a hint of determination in his eyes.

Xiao Chen thought about it and decided not to hit him.

He took the faint cold jade and turned back to Lizhou.

According to the description in "Jingkong Haiyouji", the Glimmering Cold Jade is a rare third-level ice spiritual object.

When a monk carries it with him, it will help him calm his mind and concentrate his thoughts.

In the future, it can also be used as the main medicine to refine elixirs that enhance spiritual awareness.

Such a thing can be considered a rare treasure in the Southern Region.

However, according to Master Shou Yuan, it was just a souvenir he bought from a roadside stall in the Eastern Region.

As long as you have enough spirit stones, you can buy similar things at will.

The Eastern Region has no shortage of third-level spiritual objects, so there is no need to barter and calculate carefully like in the Southern Region.

"Tsk tsk tsk, that's really exaggerated."

On his way back, Xiao Chen couldn't help but sigh, "No wonder most cultivators who want to break through to the Nascent Soul stage choose to go to the Eastern Region to seek opportunities."

"The gap in material abundance is too huge."

I think this situation happened because of the difference in the spiritual veins on both sides.

It turns out that spiritual energy is the important cornerstone of the spiritual world.

Although listening to the story took up some time, Xiao Chen still returned to Cang Yan Peak early the next morning.

Then he saw a large number of monks carrying various flowers and plants to decorate the entire mountain from top to bottom.

Master Ming Yan stood aside with great interest, giving instructions from time to time.

It can be seen that he is indeed very interested in this place.

He had even thought about moving the Lihuo Sect here, but when he saw that Xiao Chen didn't nod, he gave up the idea of ​​moving the sect.

Instead, he built a branch temple here and moved here to live in the future.

In addition, he also planned to build a branch temple on the original territory of Sihai Sect.

Then, just like before, each of them would train new disciples nearby and organize a competitive ranking within the sect.

"Junior Brother Xiao, come here!"

Seeing Xiao Chen appear, Master Ming Yan immediately came forward with a smile and said, "Yesterday was the day when the Light Tempering Spiritual Fluid was produced. This first drop of spiritual fluid must be yours."

As he spoke, he took out a wide-angle cup.

There was only a drop of red dew the size of a soybean inside, emitting a faint fire spiritual power around.

The Quenching Spirit Liquid is one of the more famous specialties of Lizhou. It comes from the Quenching Secret Realm which was originally controlled by the Cang Yan Sect.

If you can collect ten drops and make a small bottle, it can be considered a standard third-level fire spiritual object, which can be used to exchange for other supplies or for your own cultivation.

Now that the Cang Yan Sect has been destroyed, the output of the Que Yan Secret Realm naturally belongs to the Lihuo Sect.

"Oh, how long does it take for this spiritual fluid to be produced?"

Xiao Chen took it and looked at it, and found that it contained quite a lot of fire spiritual power.

As long as the output of the Quenching Spirit Liquid is not too bad, you can earn a lot of spirit stones just by selling the spirit liquid.

"It may be less for the time being. After all, we have just taken over the secret realm."

Master Ming Yan did some mental calculations and said, "But as long as we repair the secret realm and send a fire-type foundation-building cultivator to guard it, we should be able to produce two drops a year."

"I estimate that once things stabilize, I'll be able to collect a full supply of spiritual fluid in five years."

"All in all, the output is much faster than that of our Yanchi Secret Realm."

How many?

Xiao Chen almost thought he had heard it wrong.

No wonder he only took one drop. It turns out that he only received one drop of Quenching Spirit Liquid this year.

He simply waved his hand in refusal: "Well, since it's a fire-type spiritual liquid, you should keep it for yourself, Senior Brother."

"I only have one wood spirit root, it would be a waste to take it. There is no need for that."

True Man Ming Yan had some doubts in his heart. He did not think that spiritual roots could limit Xiao Chen's cultivation speed.

But since the other party actively refused, he was happy to accept the Quenching Spirit Liquid himself.

After all, he is a cultivator with fire spiritual roots, and the five elements are in harmony with him.

"Brother, I still need to go check on the spiritual fire. I'll excuse myself for now."

Xiao Chen said hello, then entered Cang Yan Peak again, ready to start the second round of feeding.

Strangely enough, the speed at which the Beidou Spiritual Fire devoured the other spiritual fires seemed to be significantly slower.

It seems like it has reached its limit.

However, he ate three spiritual fires for four consecutive days without any other reactions.

Fortunately, Xiao Chen had other things to do this time. While infusing his true energy, he opened the storage bag that he had seized in the previous battle.

After killing the eight golden elixirs of the Demon Cult, there were naturally corresponding spoils of war.

Based on his contribution in the battle, Xiao Chen was given five storage bags.

He also took this opportunity to break the restrictions above and count the harvest.

"Bang~!"

As soon as the storage bag was opened, a cloud of pink smoke came out.

Xiao Chen immediately opened his mouth and inhaled, swallowing all the poisonous smoke to prevent it from interfering with the spiritual fire not far away.

Compared to the Cang Yan Sect's golden elixir storage bags, the magic cultivators' storage bags were obviously very messy.

Although it can be seen that various things are arranged in different categories.

But due to too many types, it still looks messy.

The first thing is a pile of mixed spirit stones, with medium-grade spirit stones and low-grade spirit stones all mixed together.

However, the total number is not large, there are only 2,420 medium-grade spirit stones and more than 197,000 low-grade spirit stones.

Next is a uniquely shaped magic weapon, which comes from the storage bag of Master Nie Jing.

There is a thick evil aura lingering above it, and it looks like it has been through many rituals.

However, before Master Nie Jing could take it out and use it yesterday, it was burned to ashes by the Zhenyang Fire Dragon.

Then there was a disc-shaped spiritual weapon, one foot long and two inches thick.

The front is engraved with a pattern of an ice phoenix spreading its wings. The craftsmanship is exquisite and every feather is lifelike.

There are three ice spirit beads inlaid on the back, each of which is a third-level spiritual object, and seems to be used for charging.

Xiao Chen checked with his spiritual sense and found that the spiritual power in two of the ice spirit beads had been exhausted, and only a small half was left in the last one.

"This design doesn't look like a local spiritual weapon."

He now had an idea in mind. To use it in this way, he would need to consume a third-level spiritual weapon, which did not look like a good thing that the cultivators in the Southern Region could afford.

And you should know that the Southern Region may not be able to produce third-level spiritual objects with ice attributes.

Therefore, this Ice Phoenix Spreading Wings Compass was most likely obtained from the Eastern Region.

Then there is a scroll with gold seals and silver calligraphy, depicting a landscape painting of nine large mountains.

Xiao Chen slowly unfolded the scroll, only to see that the colors on it were not very bright and the brushwork seemed mediocre.

But when put together as a whole, there is a unique charm in it.

"Interesting, could it be a Shen Yun painting?"

It is rumored that some monks would preserve their understanding of the world, or their insights into magic, in the form of scrolls.

Such pictures are called Shen Yun pictures.
.
Xiao Chen had seen a painting at the back of Yin Yang Can Tong Qi before, which helped him a lot.

Now, when he opens it and takes a look from time to time, he can vaguely understand the principles of yin and yang.

But the question now is: "What is written on it?"

That’s right, Xiao Chen didn’t recognize any of the two lines of silver official script left on the scroll.

He couldn't recognize which famous artist the golden seal stamped below belonged to.

This is quite outrageous.

In fact, there are indeed many characters in the mortal world of the Southern Region, but the practitioners all use the same set of immortal characters inherited from ancient times.

No one can tell the source of this set of immortal writings.

However, what is currently known is that no matter whether the ancient books were left over from tens of thousands of years ago or hundreds of thousands of years ago, they all used the same immortal characters as we do now.

In addition, according to various travel notes, the same is true even in the Eastern Region.

The cultivators who went to the Eastern Region did not encounter any communication difficulties.

It was precisely because of this that Xiao Chen didn't understand why the divine plan in his hand didn't have common immortal language written on it, but instead used a niche language?
"Isn't this to prevent self-study again?"

This is nothing new, many monks like to keep things secret.

For example, in a martial art, certain changes are deliberately not specified and are only passed down orally between master and disciple.

For example, Xiao Chen cannot read the gold seal and silver official script now, and without any prompts he cannot correctly understand the divine intention hidden in the picture.

Of course, monks with strong comprehension can directly understand the charm of the painting.

You can even draw inferences about other cases by learning from one thing, or even understand ten things after hearing one thing.

However, Xiao Chen decided to put the scroll away for the time being and leave it for later.

Of course, he was not worried about his lack of understanding. The main reason was that he didn't like landscape painting recently.

In addition, there are many monster corpses, monks' essence and blood, and other magic materials in the storage bag.

The main feature is that there are no taboos and any part of the body can be used.

Xiao Chen frowned and turned over, and from a pile of blood-red magic pills, he found two bottles of genuine Yuan-replenishing Pills.

In fact, his first reaction was to burn all these magic pills.

According to the records in the Yellow Springs Secret Book, this blood-red magic pill and the black and red pills in the bone bottles he had seized before were both different varieties of "human pills".

The refining process is basically to absorb the essence of the monk's flesh and blood to nourish oneself.

However, it is mixed with a lot of demonic energy. If it is accidentally ingested without the corresponding method, it can easily cause the cultivator to become possessed by demons.

Therefore, Xiao Chen hesitated for a moment and decided to keep them. Maybe these things would come in handy someday?

For example, the glass of blood wine helped him kill the mutant turtle.

Most of the remaining things in the storage bag are also magical artifacts.

The last normal spiritual object was a complete three-ring clouded leopard spine that was five feet and four inches long.

Although it looks like it has been around for a while, fortunately it is intact and has no defects, and the bone marrow inside should still be intact.

"What a coincidence! I already have the materials for my body refinement."

This spine was found in the storage bag of Ghost Jiao Zhenren. He probably just didn't have time to use it.

Now it is naturally cheap for Xiao Chen, he can use it to make soup.

The pot of tiger bone soup he had last time benefited him greatly.

This clouded leopard bone is more complete, and I think it should be of great help to his physical cultivation.

"But I'm afraid I won't be able to reach the third level with just this."

Xiao Chen thought for a moment and said, "When we get to the Eastern Region, I'll ask if there are any third-level monster bones for sale so I can drink more bone soup."

After all, he has now formed a golden body and jade bones.

Therefore, the difficulty of cultivating the body at the same time is much lower than simply breaking through the third level of physical cultivation.

Since the Eastern Region has no shortage of third-level spiritual creatures, it should also have no shortage of third-level demon beasts.

"Hiss~, if you think about it this way, wouldn't the physical cultivators in the Eastern Region feel much more comfortable?"

You know, if you can regularly consume large amounts of the flesh, blood, and bone marrow of high-level monsters, it will definitely be extremely beneficial to your own cultivation.

Suddenly there was a crisp sound.

Then the Beidou Spirit Fire in the dark room finally seemed to wake up and began to expand rapidly.

A spiritual light immediately flashed on the fire-raising platform below, and a large number of runes rose up to form a protective shield in an attempt to confine the spiritual fire.

But they were all broken through in an instant, and no effective restraint could be formed at all.

Waves of powerful pressure emanated, and within a few breaths, the intensity quickly increased to the third level limit.

"Boom~!"

There was another loud bang, and the entire fire platform collapsed.

The original pressure began to subside, but the temperature around was rising rapidly.

The surrounding rock walls changed color in less than a moment, and even began to show signs of ceramicization.

Even Xiao Chen felt the waves of heat coming back at him.

Since he has refined the Beidou Spiritual Fire, he will not be directly affected by the spiritual fire.

But I still felt the ground under my feet starting to get hot.

The air around me suddenly became extremely dry, and every time I breathed, heat flowed directly into my lungs. I felt like if I took a few more breaths, my internal organs would be roasted.

Immediately afterwards, a lot of anger began to rise.

Even though Xiao Chen had the Fire Talisman on him, he felt that the dark room was already filled with fire energy, and it was a bit difficult for him to absorb it.

He immediately stepped back to the door and manually demolished the wall of the dark room to connect to the mine outside.

However, just as the fire energy was rising, the Big Dipper Spirit Fire in the middle stopped expanding.

It seemed that it had reached its limit, and it also seemed that it had exhausted all its strength.

Xiao Chen frowned upon seeing this. He urged his spiritual sense to sweep across the bottom of the Beidou Spiritual Fire and found that the fourth ordinary spiritual fire that served as nourishment had also been consumed.

"Isn't it?"

He quickly took out the fifth spiritual fire, thought for a moment, and took out the sixth one, throwing them over together.

In an instant, it was like a drop of water splashing into an oil pan, or like dry firewood being added to a burning stove.

"Bang~!"

"Crack~!"

Sparks flew and flames billowed, turning the entire dark room into ashes.

The raging flames burned everything and burned through half of the mountain, leaving a huge hole on the top of the mountain that was several dozen feet thick.

The fourth-level spiritual fire is so domineering. The current result is actually thanks to the fact that the Beidou spiritual fire specializes in killing living things and is not good at burning dead things.

Otherwise, the entire Cangyan Mountain would be wiped out, and the area within dozens of miles would become a fire zone.

The outside world was suddenly in chaos.

Fortunately, when the pressure suddenly rose at the beginning, the nearby monks realized that something was wrong and evacuated in time, so no casualties were caused.

"Junior Brother Xiao, what happened?"

While casting a spell to help shield the overflowing anger, Master Ming Yan asked, "Are you okay now?"

He actually had some guesses in his mind, but he wasn't very sure.
.
"Don't worry, brother. I'm fine!"

Xiao Chen replied loudly and continued to concentrate on the changes in the Beidou Spirit Fire.

The fire spread for half an hour, and suddenly a small white flame appeared in the center.

How small is it?

It's about the size of a walnut.

Compared to the spiritual fire that is already hundreds of feet high, it is completely inconspicuous.

But just this small flame, as soon as it appeared, began to quickly devour the surrounding spiritual fire.

In just a few breaths, all the originally huge spiritual fire was absorbed.

All the heat, including the diffused anger, was eaten away completely.

If the surrounding rocks had not been burned and cracked, it would seem as if nothing had happened here.

"It's done!"

Xiao Chen's eyes lit up. This small white flame was the real Beidou Spirit Fire.

Despite engulfing hundreds of feet of raging flames, the small flame did not expand at all, swaying gently in the air, as if it could be blown out by a breeze.

Apart from the strange color, you can't even feel much temperature.

However, Xiao Chen could clearly feel the destructive power contained in the Beidou Spirit Fire through the connection of true energy.

The South Dipper governs life, the North Dipper governs death!
Any creature below the fourth level that comes into contact with the Beidou Spirit Fire will end up dead.

Even if you are a fourth-rank cultivator, you still have to be cautious and be extra careful.

"receive!"

Xiao Chen walked closer and raised his hand gently.

The small white flame immediately pounced into his dantian like a young swallow returning to its nest.

It first circled around the golden elixir, then circled around the fake elixir, and finally drilled into the golden elixir.

This means that the Beidou Spirit Fire has been upgraded.

He flew out directly from the big hole above his head and saw that almost all the pavilions and towers on Cangyan Mountain had collapsed.

Many flowers and plants that were nearby were also roasted to a scorched yellow color.

The results of Master Ming Yan's construction for a day and a night were basically gone.

"Um, I'm sorry, Senior Brother."

Xiao Chen apologized sincerely: "I didn't expect that such a situation would happen during the spiritual fire promotion process."

Master Ming Yan waved his hand and said, "It's okay, Junior Brother, don't worry about it. I was just halfway through the construction when I suddenly had a new idea. I'm still thinking about whether I should redesign a set of buildings."

"Now we are just building the branch temple according to the new plan."

He actually doesn't care if he works two days faster or slower, because it's the monks below who are doing the work anyway.

"Um, alright, then I'll go to Hezhou to deal with the Skeleton Demon Body first. Goodbye, Senior Brother."

Xiao Chen didn't think too much about it. The most urgent thing was to hurry to Hezhou.

Although the Divine Fire Sect is gone now, the Skeleton Demon Body is still a big threat.

As long as it exists, all monks will have no peace.

The sooner the White Bone Demon Body is cleared out, the sooner Hezhou can restore order and begin reconstruction.

When Xiao Chen arrived at Yan'an Mountain on the south side of Lingyuan Sect, all he saw was a sea of ​​white bones.

From Qingxiao Sect to Wanhua Valley, the White Bone Demon Body harvested tens of thousands of cultivators and countless mortals.

Although many of the bones were refined and shrunk, they still accumulated into a huge area that covered the sky.

An area of ​​hundreds of miles in radius was submerged in a sea of ​​bones.

It rolled slowly towards the direction of Yuanci Peak like a mudslide.

After not seeing each other for just over a month, he was able to capture more than one golden elixir-level aura from the white-skeletal demon body.

It was a white bone demon puppet formed based on several Jindan real people of Qingxiao Sect.

Their role is to go out and hunt for life around them, continuing to add to this vast sea of ​​bones.

And the moment Xiao Chen appeared nearby, a huge spiritual sense instantly captured him.

This spiritual consciousness was extremely chaotic, as if there were dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of cultivators using their spiritual consciousness to investigate Xiao Chen.

And in the outside world, there are countless strands of hair and countless eyeballs raised.

Immediately afterwards, tens of millions of eyes collectively looked at Xiao Chen.

If any other Jindan cultivator came here, they would probably be terrified just by seeing this.

Even with Xiao Chen's strong willpower, he felt his scalp tingling on the spot.

The vast sea of ​​bones did not stop moving, and the eyeballs, with the help of the hair, kept moving while keeping their gaze.

At the same time, the nearby white bone demon puppets turned around and surrounded him.

"It's so fucking disgusting!"

Xiao Chen rarely cursed, and with a wave of his hand, he summoned the True Yang Fire Dragon to clean up the approaching White Bone Demon Puppet.

At the same time, he stretched out his hand and pointed casually at the sea of ​​bones in front of him.

"go with!"

At a command, the Beidou spiritual fire in the golden elixir immediately flew out from the fingertips and fell into the boundless sea of ​​bones.

When the white spiritual fire met the white bones, they mixed together immediately.

Coupled with the sea of ​​bones rolling forward, it is difficult to tell what is going on.

Gu Weiyuan, who still had a trace of rationality left, immediately realized that something was wrong.

More and more bones are disappearing rapidly!
He hurriedly tried to stop.

However, the bone altar in the middle stopped on the spot, but the sea of ​​bones behind it continued to move forward.

A small mountain range of bones was piled up on the spot with the middle as the dividing line.

A large number of bones fell one after another into the rapidly spreading spiritual fire in front, and ignited the surrounding bones.

The densely packed white bones around will become a barrier for the white bone demon body.

When cultivators come to besiege, it is extremely difficult for ordinary Jindan Zhenren to break through this outer barrier.

However, at this moment, the overly dense sea of ​​bones became a fatal weakness.

One through two, two through four, four through eight...

Soon, the white Beidou spiritual fire expanded to thousands of times, and in the next moment it expanded to hundreds of thousands of times.

Like an avalanche, it swept away all the bones.

Looking around, the area within hundreds of miles was turned into a sea of ​​fire.

Countless bones made crackling sounds under the burning of the spiritual fire, and then were quickly burned into ashes.

Under such circumstances, the sea of ​​bones continued to move forward for a quarter of an hour before the front was finally ignited.

In the middle, the bone altar, which was as big as a small hill, had no time to deal with Xiao Chen.

He is desperately commanding all the white bone puppets to cut off the main body from the surrounding sea of ​​bones.

However, it was too late.

The pure white Beidou spiritual fire climbed up to the bone altar in the middle from all directions.

A spark bloomed that was a hundred feet high and extremely beautiful.

"No!"

In the last moments of his life, Gu Weiyuan regained consciousness.

The huge altar cracked into several cracks, and a body with no flesh and blood except for the head could be seen, leaving only a skeleton.

"you again!"

Gu Weiyuan opened his eyes and stared at Xiao Chen: "It's you who destroyed the sacred bones and made me like this!"

"God Huangquan, I am willing to sacrifice my soul and curse you to fall into the endless hell and never be able to be reborn."

But this is nothing but impotent rage.

With the divine veil, this curse poses no threat to Xiao Chen at all.

With a smile on his face, he watched quietly as the Beidou Spirit Fire burned all the bones.
