Chapter 37: The Scorching Flame Protects the Heart of a Beloved
After taking a few tentative steps, Su Jinglan immediately stopped. It's not that he doesn't want to go, it's that he really can't walk.
From that corner just now, the temperature here began to increase exponentially. If the temperature around the corner is set to one, then Su Jinglan's position should be the tenth power of two.
In other words, Su Jinglan has only walked five steps now. In just five steps, Su Jinglan's skin was already scorched.
At this time, Su Jinglan tried to mobilize the auxiliary stones, wanting to repair the injured skin. But after trying many times, Su Jinglan suddenly found that he couldn't move this stone, no matter how he tried, he couldn't do it.
"No need to try, it's useless. The stone is now devoid of energy. ”
"There's no energy, why isn't there energy?"
"Are you stupid, where do you think you burst out with so much power? What a fool. Damn, how could I be with you, speechless. ”
Hearing the phantom's words, Su Jinglan was still unhappy. cursed in his heart, "I hate me stupid, you go out!"
"Hey, I'm disgusted with you, and I'm not going out. What can you do with me?"
Rumble.
Su Jinglan's brain buzzed, and the whole person froze. He didn't expect the Phantom to hear what was in his mind.
"Don't be surprised. Don't you know what it means to have something in your heart, and I can certainly hear what you say in your heart. ”
"Okay, you're amazing. Enough not to be Fez. I saw it. ”
After speaking, Su Jinglan no longer cursed him from his heart, but said it directly. And he will not scold the phantom from his heart in the future. If you can hear what I am saying in my heart, what is the point of me saying in my heart? Anyway, I will always scold you, from everywhere.
After this little episode, Su Jinglan pondered for a moment and continued to take two steps forward. But by the time he got to the seventh step, the temperature had risen to the fourteenth power of two. Such a high temperature also made Su Jinglan completely unable to carry it with her physical body. Because his flesh had already fallen off and charred in large areas at this time.
"Let's go back. With your current strength, you will never be able to get in. At the moment, you have two paths to choose from. One is to cultivate here. Every step of adaptation is a step forward until you reach the end of the position. The other is that you go out now and accept the punishment of this cave. If you can bear it, you can go back the way you came, and if you can't bear it, you will die. This is the general rule here. There is no turning back, and if you go, you must die. Remember what I said, you must die!"
The phantom bites the last dead word hard. But he didn't mean to die. Rather, it means that whoever cannot bear the punishment will die.
What he said was completely for Su Jinglan. Because Su Jinglan has auxiliary stones, if he can't withstand the damage, then the cave must find a way to kill him. But Su Jinglan just couldn't die. This results in an endless loop between him and the cave.
The cave had to kill him, but he just wouldn't die. The cave had to kill him, but he just wouldn't die.
The end result is likely to be that no one can kill anyone.
But now Su Jinglan is facing a very serious restriction, that is, Bao'er is still injured over there.
The phantom said that according to the current situation, Bao'er can only hold out for one day at most.
If that's the case, Su Jinglan wouldn't have that much time to waste here.
Of course, Su Jinglan understood the meaning of the phantom. So he is also very entangled now, whether he should challenge the limits of his body.
"Phantom, how long will it take to waste if I cultivate in this cave?"
"How long? It depends on your talent. If you have good talent, you may not be able to use it for half a day. If the talent is not good, then it is not certain. Half a month?a year?"
After hearing this, Su Jinglan smiled coldly. A year is unlikely. A month is also unlikely. At present, the only thing Su Jinglan wants to challenge is that half a day.
Half a day, although it may seem short, is actually a long time. Twelve hours. That's enough to do a lot of things.
So Su Jinglan didn't waste any more time in the future. Sitting cross-legged on the spot, he began to cultivate.
At the moment, the only thing Su Jinglan lacks is that there is no auxiliary stone. But this is not a good thing for Su Jinglan, but it is not too bad.
The reason why it is not good is because Su Jinglan can't recover from his injuries.
The reason why it is not bad is that it can prevent Su Jinglan from relying too much on auxiliary stones.
At present, Su Jinglan began to try to accept the temperature around her. Although he said now that he couldn't mobilize yang energy from within his body, he could transport yang energy from the outside to the inside through the two meridians that Ouyang Concubine had opened up for him before.
And this process happens to be the process of adapting to the environment.
It's like we've just arrived in a place with a lot of aroma. At first we smelled very good. But after a long time, I can't smell the fragrance.
At this time, Su Jinglan just wanted to feel that this yang energy was very hot when she first absorbed it, but in the end, when she didn't feel hot, she basically adapted to this environment.
So Su Jinglan now began to absorb the yang energy in this environment little by little.
I have to say that the yang energy here is simply thin and terrible. Su Jinglan felt as if there was no yang energy around her, and it was like a flame.
Let's not talk about what it's like to absorb this yang energy into the body, let's just say that whether or not it can absorb the yang energy into the body Su Jinglan is not sure. Because it's not like there's yang in the air at all. Rather, the flames are mixed with the air, and the air is mixed with the yang energy.
The amount of this yang energy is really pitiful.
However, this difficulty could not stop Su Jinglan's pace of advancement. At this time, he struggled to peel off those meager and pitiful yang qi from the hot air. Resist the heat and absorb them into your body. It is then converted into its own power and compressed into the body.
After completing this complete process, Su Jinglan's meridians had become as red as a soldering iron.
Because the temperature of this yang qi is too high, Su Jinglan can't stand it when she is outside the body. Not to mention sucking it into the body.
However, it may be painful to go through this process. But after Su Jinglan tried more than a dozen times, he found that the temperature here could not hurt him at all.
By now, Su Jinglan has almost adapted to the temperature of the fourteenth power of two.
At this time, Su Jinglan opened her eyes and stood up, and asked at the phantom, "Phantom, how long did it take me?"
"A quarter of an hour. ”
"A quarter of an hour, good. The timing was just right. ”
Su Jinglan said as she took a deep breath of the air here. At this time, he couldn't feel the heat at all when he inhaled this breath, and all parts of his body didn't feel pain at all. It's as if it's back to normal here. It is even said that Su Jinglan will feel cold when he takes a step back now.
Reaching this point, Su Jinglan's first step of temptation can be regarded as a success. The next thing he had to do was to take the next step and continue to adapt to the sixteenth power of two.
After taking another deep breath, Su Jinglan took this challenging step.
only heard a stabbing sound, and the parts of Su Jinglan's body that exposed tender flesh because of muscle loss began to be scorched again. The blood that flowed out of it didn't even have time to form a scab, it was evaporated and turned into char.
"Shhh ”
Su Jinglan gasped. Although he admits that his willpower is strong, he still frowns in pain in this situation.
Because one wound is injured twice, it is difficult for anyone to bear.
But now, since Su Jinglan has come here, he will not retreat. It is impossible to retreat if you can bear it or not.
So Su Jinglan sat on the ground again in pain. Now there were more or less scorched wounds everywhere on his body.
So when Su Jinglan wanted to complete this cross-legged sitting action at this moment, some thick water was squeezed out of the joints of his thighs. And when the arm is moved, there is thick water flowing out.
If Bao'er appeared here at this time, it is estimated that she would faint directly.
After Su Jinglan sat down, she began to repeat the steps of the last time.
With her previous experience, this time Su Jinglan could find the yang energy in the air faster and absorb it into her body.
However, the result of this was that Su Jinglan's pain was even worse. Because his skin has not yet adapted to this environment, how can he withstand this high temperature internally?
"If you don't push yourself, how can you become a god?"
Su Jinglan gritted her teeth and forcibly absorbed a large stream of hot yang qi into her body. At this time, Su Jinglan experienced the first time in his life that he had been like this, and the pain that made him remember it so vividly.
The things that Concubine Ouyang did to his body before were nothing compared to this pain.
What the Phantom did to him was nothing more than a sprinkling of water compared to the pain, a small meaning.
At the moment, Su Jinglan can't describe this pain in words. In pain, he is now still breathing, and he doesn't dare to move.
At this time, the phantom in Su Jinglan's body may also have felt the change in the temperature in Su Jinglan's body, and said to Su Jinglan in surprise: "Are you dying? You're not afraid that you'll get out of your body. ”
Su Jinglan heard the phantom's words, but he couldn't open his mouth now. Because no matter where he moves now, it will bring endless pain to his body.
At the moment, he can only say that he endures it and makes this pain disappear by itself.
Finally, after about half an hour, that is, two quarters later. The thick water that flowed from Su Jinglan's wound no longer evaporated. And the meridians in his body no longer hurt. But at this time, Su Jinglan noticed another serious problem, that is, his body was already showing signs of lack of water.
