"Hoo ......"

Situ Xichen sat on the ground, opened his mouth, and a mouthful of cold air spat out, and as soon as the cold air came out of his body, it immediately fell to the ground, and then disappeared completely.

He didn't know when he found a cave, after killing the spirit beasts here, he started to do the trick of the dove occupying the magpie's nest, the closure here is very good, and the cave is very deep, so there is no need to worry about the smell of blood wafting out.

This is the fifth time he has left the cave and come back, each time he brings a black crystal, and each time he brings back a crystal that is larger and has a better texture, and the time he cultivates is longer each time, for a full five hours, he only uses five crystals, the more he uses a black droplet with a better texture, the longer it takes, the one he got from that little spirit beast at the beginning, it only took less than ten minutes to absorb it all into his body, but the fifth one he used just now, But it took him more than an hour and a half.

The spirit shivered, Situ Xichen finally recovered the temperature of his body from the state of cultivation, and his originally numb arm began to feel conscious.

"This kind of cold is really terrible."

Situ Xichen stretched his arm, although he was still complaining, but there was a burst of joy in his heart, after the black droplet smearing, the part he can now quench has extended to the entire left arm, although there is no change on the surface, but he can faintly feel the power hidden in this arm.

"Drink!"

He shouted angrily, and slammed his left hand into the rock wall around him, and the rocks around him shook a few times, and what was shocking was that half of his entire arm was actually embedded in this rock mass, and when he pulled it out again, it was only slightly stained with dust, and there was no scar at all.

If it was placed in the past, without the package of divine power, he would definitely not dare to directly hit the wall with his arm, although his recovery power is amazing, but that pain still exists, but now it is different, his arm in terms of attack ability, has actually kept up with the standards of the gods.

"It's a pity ......"

Slowly retracting his arm, Situ Xichen smiled and shook his head.

"It's a pity that one part can't be tempered multiple times, otherwise the attack effect will be better."

The black droplets in this crystal are indeed very effective in strengthening the body, but this effect does not seem to be superimposed, or the second time he uses it, he has tried to use the second droplet in the same part, but the effect of strengthening is not very ideal, probably because the body has developed a kind of "resistance" to this kind of cold adaptation.

Another point is that the more he uses this droplet, the stronger the body's resistance to this, causing him to practice more difficult the later he goes, the original droplet the size of a small thumbnail is enough for him to use a whole palm, but later, the fist-sized droplet can only provide him with the quenching effect of half a palm.

"It's time to get out of here."

He sighed and wanted to get out of here, but at that moment, a sudden pain in his arm immediately caught his attention.

The pain wasn't very strong, at most it was just a prick, but it made him feel weird.

"What is this?"

He checked the abnormality of his arm, and immediately realized that something was not right, and stroked his left hand with his right hand, and the strange feeling was even more profound—his left hand was colder than his right.

It's only about one or two degrees, if you don't pay attention to it, you can't notice it, after all, people's limbs are the coldest places on the body, but if it is not deliberate, the two hands will not produce a change in temperature, but it is an indisputable fact that his left hand is colder than his right hand.

"This droplet has an effect on body temperature!"

He immediately deduced the reason, and his brows immediately furrowed, he always felt that such a convenient thing would not have no side effects at all, and also thought that it might be related to the cold, but he just didn't expect it to become like this, now it seems that the impact of such a little body temperature on him is nothing, but I just don't know if it will have an adverse reaction to the future battle, after all, if he wants to carry out such a cultivation method to the end, it will inevitably make the temperature of the whole body drop, Although he didn't know if the drop in body temperature would have an impact on the battle, after all, he used to study medicine, and he still knew the symptoms of low-grade fever very well.

"I don't feel like I'm having a limited mobility yet, so it doesn't seem to have much impact."

Except for a little change in body temperature, he didn't notice anything else, after all, one or two degrees of body temperature change is not enough to affect the normal life activities of people, you must know that although people are not ectothermic animals, body temperature is not always constant.

"I just don't know if it will have a bad effect on the heart if it continues like this."

Situ Xichen began to worry, there is nothing wrong with the body, but the heart is different, after the blood flows through the arm, it will eventually return to the heart, the temperature difference of one or two degrees is nothing, and the blood should be able to return to normal levels when it reaches the heart, but if the body temperature of his whole body drops by two degrees, the slightly colder blood may cause the heart to twitch, and the intervals are all good, if it is suspended for a period of time - it feels terrible just thinking about it.

"No matter!"

He forced himself not to think about these useless things, there were still fourteen days before the purge of this "Endless Demon Tower" was about to begin, and now it was more important to become stronger, if he couldn't escape from here or advance to the god before the fifteen-day deadline arrived, then he would really have to bury his bones here.

"It's more important to get out of this first layer now."

Situ Xichen glanced at the north, his eyes narrowed slightly, from the position where he began to approach the center, he could always sense that the fluctuation of divine power there was the most disordered, and it was also the place where the roar sounded at the beginning, and right there, I am afraid it was the exit of the first layer.

As soon as he kicked his legs, he left a shallow pit on the ground, and the whole person immediately galloped out, leaving only a black shadow in the darkness.

At first, he didn't feel anything wrong when he ran, but the closer he got inside, the more he felt that something was wrong—the temperature began to drop.

Since the opening of the "Rule Prison", he felt that the temperature change here was not quite right, especially the closer to the core, the stronger this feeling became, at first he didn't feel anything wrong, but now when it was time to enter the core immediately, the temperature had actually dropped to less than twenty degrees or so, and he gently rolled up his sleeves, and even the cold hair was slightly raised.

"It's no wonder that it produces that strange cold black crystal, which seems to have something to do with the environment here."

Situ Xichen thought secretly, and at this time, he was only less than a kilometer away from the place where the divine power was the strongest.

But the strange thing is that he is already so close to the inside, but he has not seen a single spirit beast, and it is not even as many as the outside, it stands to reason that the closer he is to the inside, the more the spirit beasts should gather and become stronger, but the current situation is a little abnormal.

Situ Xichen continued to run, now he had come to a place less than three hundred meters away from the innermost circumference, he couldn't help but slow down, although he was not afraid of these spirit beasts that only had a god level, but in case someone suddenly appeared and attacked them in groups, even he would have an absolute headache, it was always right to be cautious.

"It's ...... close"

He came to the outside of a mountain, and then slowly climbed up a hill that was only about twenty or thirty meters.

It is said to be a small mountain, but in fact it is not even a little bit of the scale of the mountain, not to look at it is only a few tens of meters, but it is extremely steep, and the inclination angle is more than 75 degrees, it does not look like a mountain at all, but it looks like a wall that can be stacked but is made very casually.

Situ Xichen's hands were clasped on the rock mass, and as soon as his left hand was forced, the whole person moved up rapidly, and when he was about to climb to the top, his speed began to slow down, and then he lay on the hill, slowly poking his head out and taking a look inside.

"Fog grass!"

The moment he saw it, his whole person was stunned, and at this time, he finally knew that there was really not a mountain under him, but a wall!

And there is only one reason why his face changed, that is, this "mountain" is actually surrounded on all sides, and a huge space is enclosed in it, and in this space, there are actually hundreds of spirit beasts of different sizes and appearances.

"I said that the divine power fluctuations here are so powerful, it is actually the lair of these powerful spirit beasts!"

Situ Xichen finally understood why there were so few spirit beasts when he was close to the inner enclosure, not because there were no spirit beasts in it, but because the guy who was the leader was too powerful, and even began to have spiritual intelligence, and actually unified these spirit beasts together.

"How could a god-level beast have such a spiritual intelligence?!"

This time, Situ Xichen was really starting to be surprised, any spirit beast only began to stimulate spiritual intelligence after the gods, there is no doubt about this kind of thing.

Of course, there are exceptions to this, such as the Fox Nine Palace, if the classification is more detailed, she should also be regarded as a spirit beast, but their demon fox clan itself is relatively advanced, so it is enough to open the spirit at birth.

The other one is Situ Ling, but her existence is more special, the undead are a collection of hundreds or even tens of thousands of dead souls, and it is almost a matter of course to open the spiritual intelligence, so it is also reasonable to say that these two or these two existences are relatively special and have a basis to follow.

But these spirit beasts are different, they don't have bloodline, they are simply from the grassroots, and it is almost impossible for such spirit beasts to open their spiritual intelligence below the gods.

Just when Situ Xichen was surprised, a spirit beast in the center below suddenly raised its head, glanced at the direction where Situ Xichen was, and suddenly his eyes became cold.

"Roar!!

All the remaining spirit beasts also stared at Situ Xichen's direction almost at the same time, and when the latter felt this kind of gaze, he suddenly felt that cold sweat was about to flow down.

"Oh no, it's been discovered!"
