Seeing this scene, Zhou Bo knew that Guo Lao was using the Qi Binding Technique again, seeing that Guo Lao was already standing ten meters away in the blink of an eye, and was still flying forward, Zhou Bo hurriedly urged out the spiritual power, wanting to use the Shadow Movement Technique to keep up with Guo Lao, but as soon as he urged the spiritual power into his legs, a hot feeling instantly rose in his body.
He knew that this must be the fiery energy in his body, but before he had time to think about it, he screamed in pain, and he was just about two meters from the ground, only to hear a bang, he fell down fiercely.
As if knowing that something like this was going to happen, Guo Lao returned to Zhou Bo's side with a bang under his feet, looking at him lying on the ground and moaning in pain, a trace of pity flashed in Guo Lao's eyes, but it was replaced by sternness in an instant, only to hear him say in a deep voice: "Here, you have to think about it every time you urge out spiritual power, because unnecessary waste will only make your body more painful." β
Zhou Bo had already sat up with difficulty at this time, after hearing Guo Lao's words, he understood the meaning a little, he knew that he was an ordinary person here, not only could he not use the Shadow Movement Exercises, but even the spiritual power could not be used easily, which made him a little frustrated, thinking that this would not work, that would not work, so how could he cultivate? ?
Thinking of this, he hurriedly stood up and asked with some dissatisfaction: "I can't use my spiritual power, so how can I refine the pill?"
Who knew that after listening to Zhou Bo's words, Guo Lao just replied very blandly: "After you can seize fifty percent of the meridians, let's talk about alchemy!!"
As soon as he heard this, Zhou Bo was instantly speechless, it turned out that he couldn't do alchemy now!! Thinking that the meridians in his body still had to work hard to seize it, Zhou Bo suddenly had a feeling that people were good at being bullied and horses were being ridden, and his own things were all to the point of begging, so what else to talk about improving his cultivation?
But thinking about it, Zhou Bo didn't put his dissatisfaction on his face again, after all, he was cultivating now, and he also believed that Guo Lao would not lie to him, because he was holding the Ice Fire Pill, which was a panacea that could unlock his fire poison and restore his cultivation!
Seeing that Zhou Bo was thinking nonsense again, Guo Lao seemed to be speechless, shook his head slightly, and said to him: "Okay, don't think nonsense!" Then, he looked at the somewhat dim sky above his head and muttered: "Hurry up and get out of here!! At night, this place is very terrifying!!"
Zhou Bo ran quickly behind Guo Lao, yes, Zhou Bo was indeed running, he didn't dare to use even a trace of spiritual power now, because even if he used a little bit of spiritual power, the burning feeling that life was worse than death would hit here, and when he thought of the feeling that the meridians were filled with magma, Zhou Bo's hairs began to stand upside down.
In the process of running, Zhou Bo felt that every time he got a little closer to the front, the hot air in his body would have some reactions, just like boiling water, the bigger the flame, the more boiling the water, and when Zhou Bo ran for nearly half an hour, he finally couldn't hold on, and slowly stopped running, so he stopped.
Feeling that Zhou Bo stopped, Guo Lao slowly stopped, turned his head, and stood in the air, only to see that he did not look at Zhou Bo, but at the surrounding scenery, suddenly, a trace of confusion flashed on his face, and he muttered softly: "I didn't expect the earth fire here to be even more powerful than in the past!!"
"Huh......? What are you talking about??" Zhou Bo sat on the ground at this time, breathed heavily with his mouth open, and asked intermittently.
Seeing Zhou Bo tired like this, Guo Lao was also a little reluctant, think about it, it was really embarrassing for him to run for so long in such a hot place, but then again, Guo Lao was still very satisfied with his perseverance with Zhou Bo, if it was replaced by someone else, it is estimated that he would not be able to support it now.
At this time, Guo Lao slowly walked to Zhou Bo's side and said slowly: "I haven't been here for a long time, and now the earth fire here is much more powerful than before. After saying that, he looked up and looked around, and found that this place was very desolate, empty, only bare hills, so he lowered his head again and said, "If you bear with me, it is estimated that you should be there in a while!!"
The place that Guo Lao said was actually a cave, according to him, it was the place where he lived when he came here to cultivate before, the place was very hidden, and it was not far from the center of the earth and fire, which was very suitable for people with low cultivation to cultivate.
Hearing Guo Lao say this, Zhou Bo had no choice but to grit his teeth and insist, he thought to himself that he came here to endure hardship, if he couldn't bear this hardship now, then what kind of cultivation would he talk about? Thinking of this, he quickly stood up and said to Guo Lao: "Then let's go quickly!!"
Seeing that Zhou Bo instantly recovered his spirits, Guo Lao smiled with satisfaction, but he didn't turn around immediately, just said with a smile: "I'm not sure about the power of the earth fire in front of me now, you better drink another bottle of Qianhan water!!"
In fact, Zhou Bo had already had this idea, but he was embarrassed to say it, but now when he heard that Guo Lao took the initiative to let him drink Qianhan water, he immediately opened the ice condensation ring with a smile, took out a bottle of cold Qianhan water from it, and opened the cap and drank it without looking at it. This thousand cold water is really wonderful, but as soon as he took his belly, Zhou Bo felt that the feeling of fire was reduced a lot, and everywhere the thousand cold water went, it was cold, attached to all the meridians, which made him feel like a long drought and a rain.
"Okay, now take advantage of the medicinal effect of this thousand cold water, let's hurry up!!" Guo Lao interrupted Zhou Bo's thoughts in a deep voice, and after speaking, he turned around and ran quickly towards the front, seeing where Zhou Bo dared to stay, he pulled away and ran quickly behind Guo Lao.
After only running for a while, Zhou Bo saw Guo Lao stop, looking ahead with a smile, and when he got closer, he followed Guo Lao's line of sight to look ahead, and as soon as he looked up, he saw several mountain cones blocked horizontally in front, saying that it was a mountain cone, but rather a few extremely pouring boulders, the boulders were pressed very low, and the slope was very gentle, it seemed that there should be a support below, and the scene in front of him was like the kind of trees that were quickly intertwined with each other, and the branches were intertwined, and finally formed a space in the middle, and these boulders were like thisγ
Slowly approaching, Zhou Bo entered the cave through the gap in the boulder, he found that the light here was very dim, not as bright as he imagined, and several boulders were not as red as the surrounding mountain cones, it seemed that it should be the cause of the fracture of the ground, and the fire of the ground.
Looking further in, I found that there was nothing in the cave, and the space was not large, barely able to accommodate seven or eight people, but because there were many boulders blocking my head, I naturally felt a lot more depressed, and it seemed that the space was much smaller.
One thing that has to be mentioned is that on the ground around this cave, there are countless earth pits of different sizes, the smallest of which is half a foot in diameter, which looks like it was dug by a marmot, and the largest hole is two or three meters deep, and the bottom is not deep, and the soil outside the cave has been fixed at this time, and it seems that these holes were dug a long time ago.
Guo Lao also walked in slowly, he didn't look around like Zhou Bo, but walked to the corner alone, sat on a rock very casually, slowly opened the storage ring, and rummaged through things.
After a while, he took out a white and blue elixir, Zhou Bo knew that it was the Ice Flame Pill, and when he saw Guo Lao take it out, Zhou Bo asked very puzzledly: "Guo Lao, do you want to cultivate now?"
Guo Lao didn't answer Zhou Bo, just stared at the pill in his hand, a little distracted, suddenly, he quickly put away the pill in his hand, stood up and said to Zhou Bo: "I still have something to do when I go out!, you can rest here tonight!!"
"But...... But it's night!!" Zhou Bo looked at the already dim and slightly yellowish sky outside, and asked puzzledly, he really didn't know where Guo Lao was going on this big night.
Guo Lao didn't listen to Zhou Bo's words and stayed here, but turned his back and said in a low voice: "I'll come back tomorrow morning, you can rest here by yourself!!" After speaking, he took two steps forward, and then suddenly stopped slightly, turned his back and said: "You have to remember, you must not go out of this cave at night!!"
"Why??" Zhou Bo habitually asked why, as if he was curious about everything, such as why Guo Lao went out at night? Why can't he go out at night?
But Guo Lao didn't answer Zhou Bo, and disappeared at the entrance of the cave with a bang, seeing this, Zhou Bo sighed helplessly, and couldn't figure out where Guo Lao was going at night, and he still had some doubts that he could really improve his cultivation by coming here? After thinking for a while, he felt that his head was a little dizzy, so Zhou Bo shook his head, put these distracting thoughts behind him, and then walked to the corner of the cave and fell asleep.
In his sleep, Zhou Bo seemed to feel a voice calling him, but this voice was too ethereal, it seemed to be nothing, it was both real and illusory, and it was like a feeling of talking in a gloomy way, coming from a far away place. And every time Zhou Bo wanted to get close to that voice, he found that it was just an illusion, and he wanted to give up several times, but there were still people calling him.
Zhou Bo didn't know where he was, he just felt that there was nothing around him, it seemed that this should be a dream, and he was also very scared, thinking to himself who this voice was??? but when Zhou Bo asked, the voice still didn't change, and he was still calling out to himself very weakly, which made him very puzzled, what was wrong with him? He couldn't tell whether the voice was male or female, he just felt that it was very neutral, and at the same time, the voice seemed to hit the deepest part of his heart, making him unavoidable.
"Zhou Bo!Zhou Bo!!" After hearing this, Zhou Bo's whole body shook violently, and as soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Guo Lao standing in front of him with a smile, looking at himself with concern.
"What's wrong? Did you have a nightmare?" Seeing Zhou Bo's frightened appearance, Guo Lao asked with concern, hearing this, Zhou Bo gasped for breath, and then shook his head vigorously, as if he wanted to drive the voice in the dream out of his mind, he didn't know if the voice in the dream was a dream, and in the end he really couldn't figure it out, so he only regarded it as an illusion caused by overexhaustion.
"Where did you go yesterday??" Zhou Bo rubbed his head with his hand at this time, and slowly stood up, he found that Guo Lao was much more energetic than yesterday, and his complexion was much better.
Regarding Zhou Bo's question, Guo Lao still didn't want to explain, so he just asked with a smile: "How many percent of the spiritual power in your body is seized now?"
Zhou Bo hurriedly observed the situation in his body, he saw that the meridians that were red were the meridians controlled by the earth fire, and the green ones were the meridians controlled by his spiritual power, and after a cursory look, Zhou Bo found that it was a lot less than yesterday.
"It's about twenty percent!!" Zhou Bo said with some embarrassment.
Hearing this, Guo Lao nodded and said in a low voice: "After all, this place is a little closer to the center, and it is already very good that you can grab two percent of the meridians!!"
Hearing Guo Lao praise himself, Zhou Bo suddenly asked happily, "Then can I learn the leapfrog alchemy now?"
"No, I can't. I saw Guo Lao shook his head and said very coldly: "If you want to practice cross-level alchemy, you must seize fifty percent of the meridians, otherwise, it will definitely be self-defeating." β
Hearing this, Zhou Bo was suddenly a little lost, thinking that he couldn't even refine the pill, looking at the red meridians in his body, Zhou Bo felt unprecedented pressure, and went to grab the meridians with the earth fire, when would he grab it?
Seeing Zhou Bo's sad expression, Guo Lao seemed to know what Zhou Bo was thinking, smiled slightly, and opened the storage ring and rummaged for something inside.
Zhou Bo didn't know why Guo Lao took out this shovel, and asked curiously, "Guo Lao, what are you doing with this shovel?"
He remembered that Guo Lao had bought it for 10,000 Qinglong coins, and thought to himself what such an expensive shovel would be made of??How could it be worth so much money!?
Guo Lao carefully took out the shovel, shook it tightly in his hand, and then handed it to Zhou Bo with a smile.
Although Zhou Bo didn't know why he handed the shovel to himself, he hurriedly reached out and took it.
As soon as he took it, Zhou Bo felt a hot feeling coming from the shovel, as if he was holding a flame, his heart tightened, and he hurriedly urged a trace of spiritual power to his hands, at this time he no longer dared to despise it, and carefully looked at the shovel in his hand, and found that it was made of an unknown black metal, as if it had been tempered by flames, and the blazing feeling made Zhou Bo's hand tremble, and he almost dropped the shovel to the ground.
"What kind of shovel is this??" Zhou Bo finally held the shovel, and he felt a feeling of spiritual power flowing on the shovel.
Guo Lao slowly explained: "This shovel is made of an ore from the Eight Flame Mountains, and there will be a little ground fire mixed with it somewhat, you have to be careful with it!" After speaking, he also showed a strange smile.
Zhou Bo now knew that the heat from the shovel just now was actually earth fire, thinking of the incomparable domineering power, which made him slightly afraid, but he still didn't know what Guo Lao wanted this shovel for, and just wanted to ask, he heard Guo Lao say again: "The reason why I bought this shovel is to use it to dig up the earth fire fruit, because the soil here contains earth fire, so it can only be dug with this shovel made of local ore." β
"Earth Fire Fruit??" Zhou Bo suddenly thought of what kind of fruit this should be, but when he thought that Guo Lao said that he had dug it with a shovel, he asked puzzledly: "What is this Earth Fire Fruit for?"
