Chapter 260: Cold Spring Refining

The cave is located more than ten meters underground, more than two meters high, and the space in the cave is extremely narrow, and can only accommodate five or six people. β–³ Top Novel,

The spring inside the cave is small, and the gushing water flows into a pool. The pond, which is about half a meter deep and has an irregular polygonal shape, has long since overflowed, and the excess water overflows the pool and seeps into the ground.

The water is cold, and the fog above the pool is shrouded in fog, but standing in the cave, it does not make people feel cold, but warm as spring.

Seeing Lu Li's excitement, Zhou Bing and Xiao Qiang glanced at each other, both of them in amazement. They hurried up and reached for the fountain.

As soon as they touched the spring, the faces of the two suddenly changed greatly, and they pumped back like lightning.

"Damn, what the hell is this, it's colder than ice." Zhou Bing exclaimed.

Lu Li glanced at Zhou Bing and said with a smile: "Cold Spring." The temperature of the cold spring is actually not low, but it contains some special substances, so it feels cold and biting. But it's a great place to practice, and I've been looking for it. ”

"Refiningβ€”refining?" Zhou Bing lost his voice and said, "Are you sure you won't freeze to death?" ”

"Nonsense. Even if you don't have a body refining technique, as long as you can endure it, it will still be beneficial and harmless. ”

Zhou Bing's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he encouraged Xiao Qiang to say, "Brother Qiang, do you want to try?" ”

Xiao Qiang hurriedly shook his head: "I want to try you, I don't have a tendency to masochism." ”

Lu Likou interrupted the two: "I'm going to practice here for a few days, and I won't go back at night, you guys come over early and late to deliver something to eat." After speaking, he turned his head to look at Hu Ying, "Hu Ying, you take them back first and inform Patriarch Hu that no one is allowed to disturb me except them." ”

Hu Ying nodded and walked out with Zhou Bing and Xiao Qiang.

After the three of them left, Lu Li walked around the spring pool, then took off his coat and wore only a pair of underwear. He stood by the fountain. Reaching out to test the temperature of the water, he suddenly gasped.

It was as if the soul was going to freeze, and even if it was just finger contact, the cold air drove straight up the meridians and instantly spread throughout the body.

"Whew."

He withdrew his arm and stared at the pool, his eyes tangled.

After a few moments, he gritted his teeth, put his feet on the ground, and leaped into the pool.

"Sss

Just a few breaths away. Lu Li felt that his consciousness was becoming more and more blurred, as if he was going to freeze to death in the next moment. He hurriedly stabilized his mind and guarded the spiritual platform, while at the same time doing his best to run the True Martial Arts Refining Body Decision.

As the exercises worked, the cold feeling not only did not mean to disappear, but instead went from the outside to the inside, and finally even the red dust spiritual power in the Purple Mansion became cold.

Gradually, Lu Li's body froze completely, and a layer of hoarfrost hung on his eyebrows and hair. The exhaled air forms a white mist.

The last vestige of wisdom told him that he had to persevere, otherwise even if he didn't freeze to death, the pain would be in vain. And he wasn't sure once he passed out. What exactly will happen is that there has never been a record of this.

A day and a night passed quickly, and he never woke up. In addition to the mist exhaled from the nose, the face has been covered with a layer of ice ballast. Looks like a complete Iceman.

Xiao Qiang and Zhou Bing have already been here three times.

After all, Xiao Qiang had seen Lu Li jump into the hot liquid, and when he saw Lu Li being calm like this, he admired it more and more in his heart.

And Zhou Bing saw Lu Li's refining body for the first time. My jaw almost fell in shock.

How much perseverance does it take to stay in the frozen spring for more than a day? Is this what it is? Looking at Lu Li's expression of neither sadness nor joy, his eyes were full of complexity, and he realized for the first time that cultivation was not easy.

Another three days passed, and Lu Li still maintained a posture of sitting cross-legged, while the frost between his eyebrows was slowly melting, finally revealing that angular face.

A week later, Zhou Bing and Xiao Qiang had just walked into the cave when they suddenly heard the sound of gurgling water from the other side of the spring pool, and the two glanced at each other and rushed in.

Rushing into the cave, the two looked intently, only to see Lu Li standing next to the spring pool, with spring water dripping all over his body.

"Master."

"Brother Lu."

Hearing the shout, Lu Li slowly turned his head, with a little more disappointment in his eyes. He sighed as he got dressed, "The amount of spring water is too small, so I can only cultivate here for the time being." ”

"What then?" Zhou Bing blurted out.

"No way." Lu Li thought for a while and ordered: "Drain the water in the spring pool, and when the spring pool is filled again, I will come back." With the capacity of this pool, it will take at least two more times. Speaking of this, he felt a little helpless in his heart. If you want to break through the second layer of the True Martial Refining Body, it seems that it is not so easy.

Even if the number of cold springs is sufficient, eighty percent will need to cultivate a few more times.

After all, it is an extremely powerful set of body refining exercises, if it is so easy to break through and succeed, the Lu family is afraid that it will have already become the number one family in the cultivation world.

Dressed neatly, Lu Li asked Zhou Bing and the two to return to Hu's house.

When he saw Hu regret at Hu's house, he recounted his previous thoughts again, and Hu regret naturally agreed.

Since knowing that Lu Li lived here, the Hu family's status in the demon cultivation space could be said to have risen, even those families who had not dealt with the Hu family before, they were polite when they saw him.

Of course, Hu Xi understood the reason, and when he heard that Lu Li was coming again, he was overjoyed.

"Patriarch Hu, I have decided to leave tomorrow. On the side of the unfrozen spring, please pay more attention to Patriarch Hu. When the spring is full, send someone to inform me. ”

In the living room of the Hu family, Lu Li put down the teacup and said lightly.

"Don't worry, senior, I will send someone to stay there twenty-four hours a day, and notify seniors as soon as there is news." Hu regret patted his chest and promised, after speaking, he glanced at Lu Li in concealment, and said in a slurred voice: "Senior, the junior has a reluctant request, and I ask the senior to fulfill it." ”

Lu Li smiled lightly: "Patriarch Hu just speaks. ”

Seeing Lu Li's gentle face, Hu Yi breathed a sigh of relief, and then said: "Senior, my Hu family is thin, and among the next generation, Ying'er has the highest talent. She admires the cultivation and character of her predecessors very much, and hopes to follow her predecessors. Besides, my Hu family is a demon cultivator family after all, and unlike the human family, I don't care about those human rules. After speaking, he got up and bowed: "I still hope that my predecessors will be fulfilled." ”

"Poof."

Zhou Bing and Xiao Qiang sat at the bottom of the living room, and when they heard this, Zhou Bing suddenly squirted a sip of tea, and then coughed again and again.

As a modern person, he has seen a lot of undisciplined incidents, how can he not understand the meaning of Hu Xi's words.

The outside world pays attention to monogamy, but our Hu family is a demon cultivator, and we don't care about these at all, this is clearly the rhythm of planning to send a daughter!

Xiao Qiang pursed his lips and pretended not to hear.

"Huh?"

Lu Li glared at Zhou Bing fiercely, then turned his head to look at Hu Xi, and said seriously: "Cultivators, indifferent to wealth, fame and fortune, don't need someone to serve, besides, I have other identities, so I am really not suitable for taking a woman." Patriarch Hu should know my identity, and if Patriarch Hu is willing, I can introduce Hu Ying to join the Hanging Sword Sect. ”

Accepting Hu Ying as a maid is absolutely impossible. And the Hanging Sword Sect already has two demon cultivators, Xiongwu and Xiaobai, so it doesn't hurt to have one or two more demon cultivators.

was politely rejected by Lu Li, although Hu regret was disappointed, he was not surprised.

According to the news from the outside world, the senior Lu in front of him has lived in the city for more than 20 years and is deeply influenced by the modern system, so it is reasonable not to agree to accept the maid. Moreover, he is also an elder of the Hanging Sword Sect, and I heard that he has more power than the head of the sect. Every move of this kind of person is related to the reputation of the Hanging Sword Sect, and it is naturally even more impossible to mess around.

"Thank you seniors for your success. I'm going to tell Ying'er and let her follow her seniors back to the Hanging Sword Sect. ”

Since it is impossible to be a maid, then retreat to the next best, and it is not bad to become a disciple of the Hanging Sword Sect.

As soon as Hu regret left, Zhou Bing's eyes rolled, he came to Lu Li's side, and said with a smile: "Master, Sister Hu Ying is a big beauty, why did you refuse?" If someone asks me that, I'll say yes. ”

Xiao Qiang said slightly angrily: "Bingzi, how can Brother Lu be that kind of person!" ”

Lu Li looked at Zhou Bing, and then at Xiao Qiang, and suddenly couldn't laugh or cry: "You two are worthy of being partners, and you really have a tacit understanding." One is red-faced, the other is white-faced, tsk, what do you mean, do you want me to say yes or not? ”

"Of course I agreed." Zhou Bing said with a smile.

"Bingzi, what will happen to you if I tell Shen Muqing?" Xiao Qiang asked suddenly.

"I rub. Brother Qiang, don't tell her, or I'll be finished. ”

Zhou Bing was shocked when he heard this, leaving Lu Li and rushing towards Xiao Qiang, begging and pleading.

Seeing these two living treasures fighting, Lu Li was completely speechless. Fortunately, the two of them are quite serious when they have outsiders, otherwise it would have ruined the image of his predecessors!

Sure enough, hearing the sound of footsteps coming from outside the door, Zhou Bing hurriedly restrained his expression, he quickly straightened his clothes, and sat on the Taishi chair in a decent manner. That expression, that demeanor, is even more impressive than Lu Li.

"Senior," Hu Yi walked into the living room with Hu Ying, and said to Lu Li: "Senior, the little girl has agreed to follow her predecessor into the Hanging Sword Sect. ”

Lu Li glanced at Hu Ying and found that her expression was as usual, and he nodded secretly.

"Hu Ying, return to the Hanging Sword Sect with me tomorrow."

……

It is less than a thousand miles away from the Sanjiangyuan area, near Kunlun Mountain.

The sinkhole that caused Lu Li to form a feud with the Chiyang Sect and even make a big fight had already changed greatly at this time.

The spiritual power in the sinkhole is extremely rich, and it is not inferior to the Hanging Sword Heaven. And the hidden formation that covered the entire sinkhole had been restored to its original state.

Even if Nangong Ling Tian, the head of the Chiyang Sect, was in person, if he didn't know the formation, he wouldn't be able to find a way in and out.

And the circular pattern at the bottom of the sinkhole, one by one, is like a swimming fish, scurrying around the edge of the pattern. Now, the entire circular pattern has lit up more than ninety percent, and I am afraid that it will soon be all restored.

Just when Lu Li and the three of Zhou Bing left the demon cultivation space and set off for Hanging Sword Mountain, the pattern in the sinkhole suddenly shone brightly, instantly illuminating the entire sinkhole.

It's just that the light is blocked by the hidden array, and the outside world has no way of knowing. And when the light converged, a swirling silver vortex appeared in the center of the pattern. (To be continued......)
