Volume 5 Chapter 190 Xuanming Cold Flame
(5,000 words)
Hearing Fan Sui's message, Shui Sheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, it seems that this old man did not want to snatch his treasures and spirit beasts like other monks in the Hades Palace, but sincerely wanted to refine the magic weapon of the war boat with himself, perhaps, the importance of this magic weapon to Fan Sui was far greater than the temptation of the Soul Cleansing Pill and the Soul Devouring Beast.
"Although these pills can't dissolve the toxins of the bone demon blood, they can prevent its toxicity from hurting its muscles and bones, you take it first, and when you get to that place, the old man will come to discuss the way to detoxify with you. ”
Fan Sui said as he reached out and took out a five or six inch tall green jade vial and threw it to Shui Sheng.
Shui Sheng stretched out his hand to take it, thanked him, opened the jade bottle, took out a blue flashing elixir, sniffed it, threw it into his mouth, and chewed it vigorously.
In fact, if you want to detoxify, the best way is to directly devour the essence and blood of the Heaven Covering Venerable, but Shui Sheng can't do it in front of Fan Sui.
The flying boat went all the way to the east, the wind was galloping, and it did not stop for a moment, in just a few days, it had walked out of a million miles, along the way, there were no other monks, and most of the ghosts and demons encountered were not enlightened, and they felt the strong spiritual pressure revealed in the flying boat, and these low-level ghosts and demons did not dare to approach at all.
On this day, after crossing a lake with turquoise water, the flying boat stepped into the endless gray-black mountains, and as more and more peaks appeared in front of him, the temperature around him suddenly became scorching, and this scorching heat was completely different from the dryness and scorching heat on the Xudu Mountain. It's a little stuffy.
Further on, many of the peaks are filled with flames. Some of these flames are reddish, while others are red to blue. Some of them are directly blue, and some of them are flashing with blue, black, and purple light, and the strange thing is that these thousands of peaks like volcanoes, when the flames rise, there are few smoke and dust accompanying them, and there is no earth-shaking mountains and rumbling loud sounds.
The temperature is getting higher and higher, the mountains are full of ravines, lakes, rivers, waterfalls, and springs. More than half of the water is boiling like a hot spring, splashing and misting. Some of these streams are snow-white, some are blue, some are light yellow, some are bright red, some are milky white, and some of the pools are directly colorful.
In the midst of these rolling mountains. The aura of heaven and earth is also mottled and mixed, yin, demonic, evil, underworld, and even aura, and the orange sky seems to be a little brighter than the sky in other places.
I don't know if it's Tiangang's evil qi that can restrain the poison of this bone-turning demon blood. It was still the effect of the pill given by Fan Sui, and the pain in Shui Sheng's body was slowly contained, and it would only attack once every hour or so. And there is no more tingling and itching between the bones.
Standing at the bow of the boat, I watched the peaks of various flames and the colorful water flow everywhere. Secretly marvel at the wonder of this Creator.
Under the long journey, even if there is a stygian crystal to support the flying boat. Fan Sui's mana also lost a lot, and the speed of the flying boat became slower and slower, and finally, it slowly stopped a hundred miles away from a black mountain peak five or six thousand zhang high.
At the top of this mountain peak, there is also a light flame hundreds of zhang high, with the light flame soaring, the void trembled violently, however, this light flame is completely different from the color of other light flames, it is a snow bright and dazzling white light, compared with the pitch-black mountain, it can be said that it is distinct, and this white light flame is not only not hot, but exudes a strange cold breath, even if it is separated by hundreds of miles, the aquatic life still can't help but shiver.
"Could it be that this is one of the three major spiritual fires in the hidden capital?"
Shui Sheng stared at the white light flame above the mountain peak for a long time, and then turned his head to look at Fan Sui.
Fan Sui's gaze also stared at the trembling white pillar of light on the top of the mountain peak for a blink, and his face showed a trace of solemnity and piety, and said: "That's right, this mountain is the Xuanming Holy Mountain, one of the seven sacred mountains in the hidden capital, whether it is this cold flame or the mountain stone, it contains the power of strange cold, almost no one in the realm below the earth immortal realm can climb to the top of the mountain, and they can't use this Xuanyin stone and cold flame to refine the weapon." ”
"So, this Xuanyin Stone is also a precious refining spiritual material?"
Shui Sheng asked in surprise, whether it is in the Heavenly Covering City or in the Xudu City, no one has seen anyone selling the Xuanyuan Stone, if the stones on this entire mountain peak can be used for refining, how can the Hades Palace allow this mountain to be exposed here without anyone guarding it?
"Seriously, this Xuanming Stone is indeed a high-grade refining spiritual material, however, this stone is abnormally hard, ordinary utensils can't cut it down at all, even if it is cut down, it is difficult to refine it into a magic weapon, think about it, even this Xuanming Cold Flame that melts gold and jade is difficult to refine its lightness, and there are several flames in the world that can refine it, unless it is practiced for a long time with the natal true fire. And the aura exuded by this Xuanying Stone is cold and piercing, not to mention low-level monsters, even those monsters who have already transformed and have not yet reached the realm of the Demon King, when they encounter this stone, their souls may be frozen, where do ordinary monks dare to use it to refine magic weapons? Unless it is a high-level monk who cultivates ice attribute supernatural powers, he will fight the idea of this Xuanshen Stone, however, there are few monks with ice attribute supernatural powers who are good at refining weapons, and those refining masters with fire attribute supernatural powers are unwilling to spend time refining ice attribute magic weapons, because of this, although this Xuanying Stone is valuable, it is also an unpopular thing?"
As if knowing the aquatic mind, Fan Sui suddenly smiled and said, "Of course, you are an exception, if it weren't for your ice attribute supernatural powers and your ability to refine weapons, the old man wouldn't have brought you here." ”
Seeing the smile on Fan Sui's face, and then looking at the white pillar of light on the top of the mountain, Shui Sheng suddenly realized that this old guy didn't seem to have any good intentions, but he was afraid that he had already planned to pull himself as a coolie.
This Xuanming Holy Mountain is tall and steep, revealing a much colder chill than the black dragon-shaped mountain composed of Tiangang Stone in the human world, with his own ice attribute supernatural power, it is already difficult to endure this chill when he is so far away from the peak, and it must be even more difficult to set foot on the mountain, Fan Sui is full of fire attribute supernatural powers. Even if the mana is much stronger than himself, it is impossible to stay on the top of the mountain for a long time. And how to use this Xuan Ying Cold Flame to refine the weapon?
Thinking of this, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but show a wry smile. said: "The seniors are too high, with the mana below, I am afraid that I will not be able to stay on this Xuanming Holy Mountain for long, let alone get close to the Xuanming Cold Flame on the top of the mountain, how can I help the seniors refine the weapon together." ”
"Don't worry, the old man can't stay on this Xuanming Holy Mountain for too long, but you and I don't need to set foot on the top of the mountain at all, there is an excellent refining hall at the foot of this mountain. It was specially built by the first refining master in the Hades Palace, the Swallowing Heaven Patriarch, and there was a Xuan Ming Cold Flame available in the hall, and the forbidden token of this hall was in the hands of the old man thousands of years ago, go, I'll take you to take a look now!"
As soon as the words fell, Fan Sui urged the flying boat under his feet and headed towards the giant mountain in front of him.
The closer you get to this black mountain, the colder the temperature becomes, gradually. The flames rising from both sides of the flying boat were extinguished one after another, and the aquatic beings couldn't help but shiver, hurriedly urging the true qi to circulate rapidly in their bodies.
Fan Sui turned around and glanced at Shui Sheng, and the sleeves of his robe flicked. A cloud of red flame flew out of his sleeve, turning into a faint crimson light mask that enveloped himself and the aquatic at the same time.
When you get closer, you can see clearly. Above the entire peak, a layer of pale white light and shadow flows from top to bottom like a wave. It was as if a white light mask had been draped over the mountain, perhaps because the white flame on the top of the mountain was due to the cold heat. There was no dense fog around the entire peak.
The flying boat went up a steep ridge, more than a thousand feet from the foot of the mountain, and after a pillar of incense, a flat valley appeared in front of me, and the white cold fog in the valley was obviously thicker than in other places.
Fan Sui stopped the flying boat, stretched out his hand and patted it on his waist, and took out a forbidden token carved from a white spirit jade, half a foot wide at the top and half a foot long at the bottom, and slowly injected mana.
With a hum, an arm-thick white aura flew out of the token, breaking through the white light shield that covered the entire mountain peak, and crashing into a flat, steep stone wall.
Suddenly the light and shadow flickered on the stone wall, and the spatial ripples spread around, the void trembled violently, and in the buzzing sound, a series of colorful forbidden spiritual light flew out of the stone wall, and two heavy stone doors were born out of thin air in the five-colored light and shadow, and in the rolling sound, they opened to the inside, revealing a deep passage.
"Let's go, every time this portal is opened, it will cost a lot of stygian crystals!"
Fan Sui glanced at the aquatic creatures who were looking around curiously, and with a lift of his footsteps, he flew towards the passage.
The aquatic critique groaned for a moment, then raised his legs and followed.
At this time, Fan Sui's true strength was revealed, the aquatic body was covered with ice attribute supernatural powers, and there was an incomparably cold Tiangang evil qi to protect his body, and he was constantly shivering all the way, Fan Sui had not even shivered so far, if he wanted to be unfavorable to the aquatic life, he would have done it a long time ago.
As soon as he stepped into the passage, the two stone doors behind him immediately closed by themselves, but fortunately, there was a pearl-like oval spar inlaid in the passage every other distance, emitting a faint white light, illuminating the black passage.
This passage, although it is carved out of a natural crack, but there are also many traces of axe slashing, it seems that this "Heaven Swallowing Ancestor" is by no means an ordinary monk, and there must be a divine weapon like the Tiangang Sword in his hand.
Somehow, Shui Sheng remembered the two "Heaven Swallowing Gourds" in his hands, and the jade gourd that the Heaven Covering Venerable used to collect the Tiangang Sword, looking at its style, it was another "Heaven Swallowing Hu", thinking about it, these jade gourds that are more or less accompanied by the power of space are probably the masterpieces of this "Heaven Swallowing Ancestor", the refining master who can refine space treasures, that is the real grandmaster, but it is a pity that this master has already flown to the heavenly realm and has no chance to see it.
The winding passage is dozens of miles long, at the end of the passage, it is a huge hall that is thousands of zhang wide, the four walls of the hall show an irregular shape, it seems that it should be a cave originally, it is artificially dug in, in the hall, the tables and chairs are all complete, all of them are carved with Xuanming stone from local materials, although it is simple, but it is also unique.
Depending on the topography of the cave, there are several stone chambers of different sizes on one side of the hall.
In one of the boxy stone chambers with a length and width of 100 zhang, the cold was the heaviest, and Shui Sheng looked up and saw that the stone room with the door wide open was full of various forbidden spiritual lights flickering, and there were obviously several sets of different auxiliary magic circles. In the middle of the stone room, a three-legged round tripod with a high purple light flashing is quietly suspended. Under the ding, in a well of earth fire that also shone with forbidden aura. It spit out wisps of faint white flame as thick as fingers, and there were dozens of wisps.
At the top of the stone room, the cracks of different widths did not know where to extend, and it was precisely because of these cracks that these Xuanming cold flames that rushed out of the earth fire well had a place to vent, and they did not accumulate too much in the hall, otherwise, the entire hall would not be able to stay for a long time like an ice cave.
Fan Sui said as he walked towards the stone room, "This refining room has not been used for hundreds of years. No one can enter this hall except the old man, you don't have to worry about those noisy guys coming to harass you, just rest assured to get rid of the toxins in your body, and when you recover from your injuries, you and I will start refining the warship. As long as the battle boat is completed, the old man is responsible for teleporting you out of the city, of course, if you are willing to take the risk and go to another place with the old man. The trouble that the Soul Eater Beast has brought you is not a trouble, if you are lucky, you and I will not only be able to greatly increase your mana, but also make great contributions to the Hades Palace. At that time, the old man will personally ask to see Senior Brother Emperor Zun and change your current identity to the messenger of the inner temple. At that point, not only will no one come to your trouble. You can walk around the whole city!"
When it comes to the last few sentences, the arrogance is dry for a while.
Shui Sheng couldn't help but be stunned for a while. He stopped and asked in surprise: "What does the senior mean is that this war boat is very important, if it can be successfully refined, it can use the power of the war boat to let the senior go to a place that is difficult to reach?"
"That's right, the old man won't hide it from you, when he fought with the demons who invaded the hidden capital, the old man was accidentally seriously injured and fell into two realms one after another, although he worked hard for hundreds of years to recover to the realm of the middle-level earth immortals, but he has never been able to return to the realm of the upper level of the earth immortals, and he will not be able to go to Tongtian Island through the dark sea full of nine shadows and yin winds, if there is this battle boat, things will take a turn, not only can the old man return to the realm of the upper level of the earth immortals with the help of the rich spiritual power brought from the Tower of Babel, but also can help the Hades Palace to make a great contribution. ”
Seeing Shui Sheng's look of bewilderment, Fan Sui continued: "You are not a core disciple of the Hades Palace, so naturally you don't know this secret, there were originally disciples of the Hades Hall stationed on Tongtian Island, and there was also a long-distance teleportation array, which could lead directly to the capital city. As long as the disciples of the Hades Hall advance to the peak realm of the Upper Rank Earth Immortals, they can go to Tongtian Island, and with the help of the forbidden power in the Tower of Babel, they can break through the interface and fly to the Heavenly Realm. It's a pity that in an accident hundreds of years ago, this teleportation circle was destroyed, and the three disciples stationed on Tongtian Island all fell. ”
The power of the Nine Yin Wind Shui Sheng personally tried it, and almost lost his life, every time he thought about it, he was terrified, as for the Tower of Babel, Shui Sheng had also heard of one or two, but he didn't expect that even the disciples of the Hades Palace could not enter the Tower of Babel now.
After pondering for a moment, he asked, "There is more than one Upper Realm Earth Immortal in the Hades Palace, is it possible that with the divine power of Lord Emperor Zun, he can't go to Tongtian Island?"
A wry smile appeared on the corner of Fan Sui's mouth, and he said: "Do you think that the upper realm earth immortals are everywhere? In this secluded capital, it is already difficult and difficult to advance to the middle level earth immortals, and it is no longer a talent to advance to an upper level earth immortal, but by chance." As far as the old man knows, in the entire secluded capital, there are only a handful of immortals in the upper realm, and now there are at most five or six of them. At the time of the Demon Tribulation, Senior Brother Emperor Zun was also seriously injured, although he was lucky enough to recover to the Upper Rank Immortal Realm, but how could he dare to venture across the Stygian Sea? Once an accident occurred, the status of the Hades Palace would be in jeopardy. As for Senior Brother Cangsong, don't mention it, this person is narrow-minded, since he failed to compete for the position of Emperor of Xudu, he has never appeared in Xudu City again, and now he doesn't know where he has gone. Although the Jizo Mansion and the Qingxuan Hall also have the secrets of the upper level of the Immortal Deposit, Tongtian Island, it is inconvenient to tell outsiders. ”
"It's also an outsider below, but the seniors told such a big secret, isn't this ......?"
Shui Sheng's heart was secretly tight, who doesn't want to know more secrets, but the more secrets he knows, the more dangerous it is, could it be that this Fan Sui is ready to trap himself in this hall, but how can he bear this bone-chilling chill?
"It's good that you are an outsider, but you are the messenger of the outer hall of the Hades Palace, and you must also be controlled by the Hades Palace, not to mention, the old man remembers that there are no other forces behind you, and the most important thing is that you are the only person who can help the old man at present. ”
Fan Sui said nonchalantly, as he spoke, he walked to the front of the stone room first, raised his hand and struck out a magic decision at each of the several array eyes in the room, and in the buzzing sound, the forbidden aura of the portal that originally seemed to be open flickered, and a faint white light curtain collapsed with a bang, and a strange cold aura suddenly rushed towards the two of them.
The aquatic life that followed behind Fan Sui shivered a few times again, and hurriedly urged the true qi to circulate rapidly in his body to resist this strange cold power.
Fan Sui still acted as if nothing had happened, and casually took out a short sword with a five- or six-inch long blue light flashing and threw it towards the bottom of Dading.
Those finger-thick cold flames seemed to have spirituality, and they wrapped the short sword in the middle of a cloud of white light, and in the sound of sizzling, after a while, the short sword was already full of blue light, all the spirituality was lost, and the sword body was distorted and deformed.
Happy reading at the end of this chapter! (To be continued......)
