Chapter 99: Fire Charm Apprenticeship
The third floor was empty, and nothing could be seen beyond the row of candlesticks hanging from the walls.
The quieter it was, the more strange Jiangzhou felt and more vigilant.
The Henggong Shield and the Heaven and Earth Infinite Sword both floated around their bodies, ready to attack.
"Who guards the tower? Don't dare to show up, aren't you afraid of me? If you don't want to fight, open the lower level, don't waste my time. After waiting for a while, Jiangzhou's patience was about to be worn out.
Suddenly, the flame of a candle on a candlestick rose a foot high, and the image of a person faintly appeared in the flame.
"You're also capable of swordsmanship, right? The master said that you are a dryad, but unfortunately, whether you reveal the true body of the dryad or use the sword, you can't hurt me, and it just so happens that I am your dryad's nemesis. Today you will explain this layer! ”
"You're a fire ghost?" Jiangzhou had heard Bai Ze talk about the demons and monsters, mythical beasts and monsters in the Three Realms, and he had heard of the fire ghost. Fire charms have no real body, only true spirits.
The fire charm is the most difficult to deal with, and it can't hurt with swords, fists and feet.
However, this is not a threat to Jiangzhou, after all, in his Nine Lives Palace, there is still the Xuanyang Fire, the fire charm has not yet become refined, and it has not reached the realm of the Xuanyang Fire, and the fire attack used is only the Yuanyang Fire, or the Yuanyin Fire, which is one layer weaker than his Xuanyang Fire.
But looking at this fire charm, hiding in the candle flame, then what he is cultivating must be the fire of Yuanyang.
"Since you know I'm a fire ghost, you must be scared, right? Hahaha" Fire Charm laughed, extremely complacent.
"Silly hat, just a fire charm, before he becomes a refinement, he is full of big words. If you had become a fire spirit, I would have feared you a little. Jiangzhou said funny.
Indeed, once you cross the hurdle of fire charm and become a fire spirit, your strength will increase greatly. But from fire charm to fire essence, how easy is it to cultivate?
However, the fire charm didn't believe Jiangzhou's words.
"Just a dryad, dare to talk so loudly to your nemesis. Burn you, the dryad, to ashes today. ”
The candle flames on a row of candlesticks all soared to a height of more than a zhang, and the flames formed and gathered in the air, drawing an arc and heading towards Jiangzhou.
Jiangzhou collected the Heaven and Earth Infinity Sword and blocked the flames with a horizontal shield.
The fire of Yuanyang, of course, cannot damage the Henggong shield in the slightest.
Seeing this, the fire charm was greatly surprised, and asked, "Dryad, why is your shield so domineering?" Can't even my Yuanyang Fire burn it? ”
If it was something made of ordinary metal, I am afraid it would have already been burned into a liquid state by the fire of Yuanyang. But the Henggong shield is made of the scales of the Henggong fish, not to mention the fire of Yuanyang, even if it is the fire of Xuanyang, it cannot be damaged.
"The fire of Yuanyang is like boasting to me about Haikou, and today I will let you see the fire of Xuanyang."
Jiang Zhou said that, a huge red beak had already appeared on the top of his head.
When the fire charm saw it, she was extremely surprised, and at the same time she said with great admiration: "This is a bird beak? I've heard that only the Flood Desolate Demon Beast has such a beak as well. ”
"Little guy, you really have a vision, this bird's beak is exactly what I got after killing Yi, and it can just be used as a medium for me to use the Xuanyang Fire."
"You, you, you, you've already cultivated the Xuanyang Fire? But you are a dryad, how can a dryad cultivate fire-based exercises? Fire Charm asked incomprehensibly.
"To tell the truth, the body of the tree demon was condensed by obtaining the primordial spirit and demon power of the old demon of Montenegro after killing the old demon of Montenegro. I am not a dryad, but a monk of the human race. ”
Huo Mei jumped down from the candlestick, no longer had the intention of fighting, and knelt directly in front of Jiangzhou.
"I am a fire charm born from the earth fire magma, and I have cultivated for three hundred years, and I have only cultivated to the fire of Yuanyang, and I can no longer break through. I wanted to travel through the world and find a master of fire refining as a teacher, but I was caught by Fahai and trapped in the Leifeng Tower. Today, I have the fate to meet a master, I only ask my predecessors to accept me, so that I can learn the spell of refining fire with you. If my predecessors had not taken me, they would have buried me here today. ”
Jiang Zhou felt funny, he wanted to kill this fire charm on the spot, who thought that he wouldn't even fight, so he would worship himself as a teacher.
"Fate is true, but I am only a one-sided relationship with you, how can I hastily accept you as an apprentice? You get up, I don't embarrass you, just open the next floor, let me go up. ”
Although the fire charm is shapeless and substantial, it is constantly doing kneeling postures.
"Master, I have made up my mind, I will follow you, if you don't accept me, you will end me."
Jiangzhou did have the idea of accepting disciples to expand his own power, so he accepted Gao Ge as an apprentice. But he really doesn't know anything about this fire charm, and Jiang Zhou can believe Gaoge's sincerity. But if he accepts this fire charm and becomes a white-eyed wolf, then Jiangzhou will regret it.
"Okay, I'll take you as an apprentice, but I have one condition."
"Master, please speak!"
"I accept you, you must be loyal to me for the rest of your life, and if you betray me one day, I will end you at that time."
Huo Mei kowtowed again and again, and said: "One day as a teacher, a lifetime as a father, I still understand this truth." I will definitely always be devoted to the master, only the master is willing to teach me. ”
"What's your name?"
"Fire Away!"
"Okay, Huoli, you are my second apprentice, and your senior brother is now waiting for my master to go out outside Leifeng Tower. Your senior brother has also just started his career, and the master has not taught him much real skills. Maybe his strength is not as good as you now, but the entry is in order, and since he has entered the master before you, he is your senior brother. ”
"Master, Huoli understands, no matter when, I will respect you and Senior Brother, Master."
"Okay, you understand. But now that I have to go through the hurdles for the division, it is not appropriate to stay here longer. ”
Huo Li was very clever, and immediately twisted one of the candlesticks, and the steps up the fourth floor appeared in front of him.
"Huoli, if you enter the Xuanyang Fire now, can you withstand it?" Jiang Zhou asked.
"I'm just a fire charm body now, and I definitely can't withstand the scorching of the Xuanyang fire, I'm afraid it will destroy my fire charm body in a short time."
Jiang Zhou's finger above the head of the bird beak said: "Huoli, you will hide in this bird's beak first, you will not be injured by the fire of Xuanyang." This beak is a beak of a bird, and it can also be used as a treasure weapon for controlling fire. In it, you may be able to comprehend some of the higher levels of the way of fire. “
The fire was overjoyed, and after thanking him, he flew into the beak of the bird.
Jiang Zhou put away the beak of the bird, smiled bitterly secretly, and came to break through, but picked up an apprentice in vain.
But I have to admit that the starting point of this Huoli apprentice is quite high, he is also clever, his mouth is sweet, and his understanding is not bad, I am afraid that his future achievements will be higher than that of Gao Ge, a big apprentice.
Fahai saw that Jiangzhou had accepted Huoli as an apprentice and took Huoli away, so he said to himself: "This fire charm is the most difficult one to tame, but I didn't expect to voluntarily worship Jiangzhou as a teacher." However, Jiangzhou is not simple, he didn't expect that there would be a fire refining technique, and he even reached the realm of Xuanyang Fire. If it is allowed to develop, the future will be limitless. It's a pity that if I go down the crooked path, if I am included in my Buddhism, it will be a merit. ”
Jiang Zhou went up to the fourth layer, but he was really surprised to see a behemoth in front of him, which was a giant beast.
