Chapter 26: Cultivation
"Brother Ye, why do you want to hide it from Sister Bingling?"
Mu Ningxue asked suspiciously while leading the way in front.
Ye Tianchen shook his head helplessly and said, "If you let that girl know, she will definitely clamoring to follow." In the restaurant, seeing that you want to talk and stop, I think there must be some danger in coming to that place, so it's better not to let her know. ”
"Hmm. In this dark night, people couldn't see Mu Ningxue's pretty face, and after a trace of inexplicable look flashed in her eyes, she said, "Brother Ye, it's so good to Sister Bingling." ”
"Hehe!" Ye Tianchen chuckled lightly and said: "That girl has always been sticking to me since she was a child, dangling behind me all day long, like a fart, it just so happens that I don't have a sister, so I directly treat her as my own sister." ”
Mu Ningxue's eyes suddenly flashed a bright light, and then disappeared in an instant, and said: "Where to go, Brother Ye must be careful, the temperature in the waterhole is very low, if it doesn't work, don't force it, let's think of other ways." ”
"Hmm!" Ye Tianchen nodded, answered and did not speak again.
The eastern sky gradually revealed the white light of the fish belly, Ye Tianchen followed behind Mu Ningxue, galloping quickly all the way, after a long night of hurrying, the two finally came to the cold water pool ten miles away from Tianlin City.
Ye Tianchen looked at the surrounding steep and remote terrain, and couldn't help but ask suspiciously: "The terrain here is so remote, even the villagers who go up the mountain to collect firewood on weekdays may not find here, how did Miss Mu know about this place?"
A trace of hesitation flashed in Mu Ningxue's eyes, and then she shook her head and said: "I once came here by chance with the elders of the sect, and when I saw the strange scenery here and a pool of cold water, I was deeply impressed, but fortunately, this place has not changed much over the years, otherwise I may not be able to find this place again." ”
"Huh!"
Ye Tianchen chuckled, slowly came to the edge of the cold pool, stretched out his hand into the pool, and suddenly there was a cold chill on his fingers, and he quickly withdrew his hand, and said in surprise: "The scenery around the pool is the same, but the water in this pool is so cold, I think there must be a treasure in the pool." ”
"Hmm!" Mu Ningxue nodded and said, "I once heard the elders of the sect say that there is a cold ice spirit vein under this pool of water, and under this extremely cold temperature, it should be able to give birth to a cold treasure like the Ice Spirit Stone. ”
A bright light flashed in Ye Tianchen's eyes, and then he said, "Miss Mu, you wait on this shore for a while, I'll go down first to see the situation." ”
"Wait!" Mu Ningxue saw that Ye Tianchen was about to enter the water immediately, and hurriedly said: "Brother Ye, the deeper this pool of water goes, the colder it becomes, don't stay under the pool for too long, lest there be danger." ”
Ye Tianchen couldn't help but be slightly stunned, then nodded and said, "Well, I'll meet the opportunity, don't worry!"
Mu Ningxue bit her lip slightly, watching Ye Tianchen jump into the pool water, and when it came to her mouth, she still didn't say it in the end.
"Poof!"
When Ye Tianchen came to the cold water pool, he immediately felt cold and shivering, and hurriedly put the spirit yuan in his body, which felt much better, as he sank deeper and deeper into the pool, the pressure around him became greater and greater, and the pool water became more and more cold. When he went down to a depth of about 100 meters, Ye Tianchen was already so cold that his teeth were chattering, and the speed of blood circulation in his body became slower and slower, and it seemed that he might be frozen into ice by the pool at any time, and he dived more than 20 meters again, and at this time Ye Tianchen could already see the bottom of the pool.
I saw that within the range of sight, there was no grass, and it had been diving here, Ye Tianchen had never seen the existence of half a swimming fish from beginning to end, and the strange thing was that when he came to this depth, the water in the pool seemed to gradually become warmer. When Ye Tianchen dive to the bottom of the pool, the water temperature here was even higher than the temperature on the surface of the pool.
"Strange!"
Ye Tianchen had doubts in his heart, and then put his doubts behind him and began to concentrate on finding the Ice Spirit Stone.
Ice Stone is a 10,000-year-old ice, which can only be formed after the polishing of time and the cold that has been sufficiently cold. Ye Tianchen came here this time, he was originally holding a fluke mentality, and he never thought that he would definitely be able to find the Ice Spirit Stone, after all, a genius earth treasure like this, in addition to being formed under absolute environmental factors, also needs a certain chance to find it.
Suddenly.
A warm current slowly flowed past Ye Tianchen's side, sweeping away the chill in Ye Tianchen's body.
"Huh!"
Ye Tianchen's heart moved, the dark path of things must be reversed, there will inevitably be extremely hot things under the extreme cold, since Mu Ningxue said that this place can produce extremely cold treasures, presumably not far away can also produce extremely hot things, as long as you follow this warm current to find it, you will definitely be able to find its source, thinking that it should be better than looking for the ice spirit stone here aimlessly, thinking of this, Ye Tianchen began to carefully distinguish the flow direction of Nuan Liu, and followed the warm current all the way to the past.
Soon, Ye Tianchen came to an underwater rock wall, in front of him was a cave five or six zhang wide, the warm current came out of this cave, through the mouth of the cave, you could faintly see that there was a red light flashing inside, Ye Tianchen couldn't help but feel happy in his heart, and secretly said that his guess was really good. With the memory of treasure hunting in his previous life, Ye Tianchen carefully leaned against the rock wall and slowly walked towards the cave, usually there will be demon beasts guarding such a place, which does not let Ye Tianchen act carefully.
Along the rock wall, Ye Tianchen came to the end of the cave without danger all the way, only to see a huge pit in front of him, and under the pit was a tumbling underwater magma, and the red light seen at the entrance of the cave was written and emitted from here, strangely, between the cave and the pit in front, there seemed to be an invisible barrier, separating the two adjacent places into two worlds, the pool water in the cave was blocked in front of the pit, standing in the cave, you can only feel the warm breath, and it will not make people feel hot and unbearable.
"That's...!?"
Ye Tianchen's eyes were firmly fixed on a raised fiery red stone block on the edge of the pit, the stone seemed to have been carefully polished by something, the surface was very flat, and from here, the stone was crystal clear, and the slightly blackened rock wall under the stone could be vaguely seen. Ye Tianchen walked carefully into the pit, as soon as he came to the pit, a hot and suffocating wave came to his face, accompanied by a pungent smell of sulfur, and hurriedly ran the spirit yuan and wrapped himself, only then did he feel better, but he was still so hot that he was sweating, and his feet cautiously stepped on the protruding stone, and when he came to the fiery red stone, he couldn't help but exclaim: "Fire Spirit Stone!"
Ye Tianchen carefully knocked on the fire essence stone, and suddenly heard a crisp sound, echoing in the pit.
"The best fire spirit stone!"
Even Ye Tianchen's experience, after learning the texture of this fire essence stone, he still couldn't help but be taken aback, if you want to give birth to the best fire essence stone, you must have a powerful demon beast, carefully guarded for thousands of years, and water it with the absorbed fire essence every day, in order to be conceived in this scorching high temperature environment.
Ye Tianchen cautiously looked around, and saw that there was no abnormality around, so he hurriedly pulled out the thin sword behind his back, dug out the fire essence stone from the pit wall, carefully retracted it in front of his chest, and then immediately rushed to the direction of the cave, after returning to the cave, Ye Tianchen couldn't help but glance back, and saw that there was no abnormal situation behind him, so he let out a sigh of relief, the dark path guardian demon beast must have gone out, and hurriedly rushed to the outside of the cave, no one knew when the demon beast would come back, or leave early.
"Boom... Boom!"
The entire cave shook violently, and a series of explosions made the calm cold pool become turbulent.
Ye Tianchen grabbed the rock wall beside him with difficulty, and firmly fixed his body on the rock wall, so as to avoid being swept away by the turbulent water, and he was horrified in his heart, knowing that it must be the guardian demon beast that found that the fire essence stone was taken away, which would cause such a strong movement. I just don't know if the demon beast is inside the pit or outside the cave.
When the torrent gradually stabilized, Ye Tianchen hurriedly ran to the outside of the cave, constantly praying in his heart, hoping that the demon beast would never appear outside the cave, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Roar!"
Ye Tianchen just came to the entrance of the cave not far away, a huge stray bomb flew in front of him, and quickly dodged to avoid the stray bullet, looking up, he saw two horns on one head that had not yet been fully formed, the huge head was covered with scales, dragging a long fiery red body, the huge body flashed with ice blue light from time to time, and there were four small claws on its abdomen, obviously his prayer did not play any role.
"Ice and Fire Jiao!"
Ye Tianchen exclaimed in surprise, vigilantly looking at the huge Ice and Fire Jiao at the entrance of the cave, this was a dragon that had not yet fully evolved, looking at its form at this time, it must have been only a line away from the dragon.
"Roar!"
Ice and Fire Jiao stared at the big eyes like copper bells, roared again, and then rushed into the cave, opening its huge mouth and biting Ye Tianchen.
Ye Tianchen never imagined that his luck would be so bad, and the first demon beast he met turned out to be the Ice and Fire Jiao of the Dragon Transformation Stage. Seeing the huge mouth of the fire Jiao, with a pungent fishy smell, it bit itself. Hurriedly rushed forward, taking advantage of the fact that the Ice and Fire Jiao could not swing flexibly in the cave due to his huge body, he rushed out from the side of the Fire Jiao in an instant, came to the outside of the cave, and swam above the waterhole for a moment. At this moment, Ye Tianchen didn't even have the slightest desire to fight with the Ice and Fire Jiao, with his current strength at the peak of the warrior, he couldn't fight the Ice and Fire Jiao at all, and it wasn't even enough to stuff his teeth.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
There was a sudden explosion from the cave behind him, and countless gravel shot wildly around, Ye Tianchen quickly swam towards it while dodging the attack of the gravel. Suddenly, a faint figure appeared above his head, Ye Tianchen couldn't help but be slightly stunned, but saw that the figure was swimming towards him quickly, and at the same time kept gesturing. Feeling the fluctuation of the water flow behind him, Ye Tianchen hurriedly glanced back, only to see that the Ice and Fire Jiao had already chased out of the cave, and at some point it had come to a short distance behind him, and was biting him again with its mouth open.
