Chapter 18: Taking Medicine
Running back to the cave, he also built the foundation in half a step, but he sweated on his forehead. Fortunately, Hou Ying obediently stayed in the cave and did not walk around, it seemed that she had calmed down a little, and her face also had some emotional fluctuations when she saw him come back. Xia Fanxing hesitated for a moment, stepped forward, handed her a cold plum grass, and asked her to ...... Eat.
Hou Ying's pale pretty face was reflected even more snow-white by the surging spiritual light, she frowned and glanced at Han Meicao, and said softly: "This thing, it's better to put it in the furnace to refine it." Senior brother, if I'm not mistaken, you brought the alchemy furnace?"
Xia Fanxing scratched his head and was quite embarrassed to tell the story that his whole body's spiritual power was "locked". The art of resisting fire is not particularly difficult, but like Xia Fanxing, Hou Ying didn't understand so much. Hearing Xia Fanxing's strange incident, she casually rubbed the ball of light, and said softly: "Your situation, if your guess is good, it should be related to the "Water God Formula". Xia Fanxing has told Hou Ying that Xuan Neng gave him the "Water God Formula".
"Senior sister thinks the same way? To be honest, junior brother, I came to look for you just now, also because there were some difficulties in the process of refining bones, and such a strange thing happened just now, and I would like to ask senior sister for some advice. Xia Fanxing said humbly.
"In my opinion, I dare not say that I know anything about that strange method. Listening to what you said, it's just a little guess about the "Water God Formula". Anyway, when I finish using this elixir, Senior Sister will try to use seven killing star qi to unlock one or two spiritual powers for you!"
After that, Hou Ying's palm ignited a red flame that was far brighter than Xia Fanxing, although it still belonged to the category of mortal fire, but Tu Feng Sect was not a master of fire refining, and mortal fire had this purity, which was already very good among the six generations of disciples in the early stage of foundation building.
The flames in her hands engulfed the cold plum grass and overshadowed the light of the ball of light. Hou Ying sent the fireball in her hand to her mouth, and the brilliance of the spirit grass root was not engulfed by the flames, and at this time it emitted a stronger light, as if it was competing with the mortal fire. Xia Fanxing thought that when he devoured the cold plum grass just now, that spiritual light was also connected with the mortal fire, and the momentum of both of them increased a lot, but it was far less intense than in Hou Ying's hands.
Seeing that the senior sister sighed lightly, swallowed most of the cold plum grass into her mouth with flames, and still had a ball of light and flames in her hand that had expanded more than twice as much as before, but after swallowing more than half of the spirit grass, Hou Ying's pale face did not improve, Hou Ying sighed again, and looked directly at the surging energy in her hand. After a moment, she seemed to have made up her mind. The other hand turned into a talisman in the air, and a trace of pure and fierce purple qi flowed from her fingers and poured onto the ball of light in her hand.
The energy seemed to have been poured with cold water, and its volume shrank drastically, and at the same time, Xia Fanxing could clearly see that a subtle red light flowed out of her hand, rushing into her fingers along the path of purple qi, and directly into her body. And that purple qi is undoubtedly the Seven Killing Star Qi!
During the foundation building period, it forms a spiritual tripod in the body and absorbs the aura of heaven and earth. The monk cultivates the Seven Killing Method, converts the aura into the Seven Killing Star Qi, and inhales it from the Zhuji Lingding, and at the same time, the Lingding will also send out the spiritual energy, which is equivalent to absorbing the high-level Seven Killing Star Qi and expelling the low-level aura. The absorption of aura in the later realm is like building a foundation tripod, with collection and release.
And the Seven Killing Star Qi has the effect of quenching bones and cutting hair, and powerful cultivators can completely absorb it into the blood, squeeze out the original Qi and blood, and become the Seven Killing Physique. And Hou Ying's hand just now, Xia Fanxing keenly felt that this was not a simple aura transformation, and the Seven Killing Star Qi was not unseen, but the trace of purple qi she had just now clearly had a little bit of qi and blood. The relatively feminine and cold blood qi in her body was shot out with the Seven Killing Star Qi in such an action, which showed that she had reached the stage where the star qi entered the blood.
With such a slight move, she couldn't see the purity of the Seven Killing Star Qi in Hou Ying's blood, but as a disciple in the early stage of foundation building, she was only twenty-four years old, and it was extremely rare to enter the threshold of Star Qi and blood. Xia Fanxing couldn't help but feel terrified of Hou Ying's ability, this usually cold second senior sister had such a high talent, she really couldn't compare to herself. So much so that he didn't feel worried when he saw Hou Ying swallowing the roots of the cold plum grass, but he looked at the scene in front of him a little stunned.
It's just that this cold plum grass has a relatively unpopular property - it can be said that its medicinal properties are strong when it is strong, and weak when it is weak. After Hou Ying swallowed the ball of light, it was not as good as before when he devoured the branches and leaves of the spirit grass, and after this thing was entered, Hou Ying's face immediately turned rosy. After the entrance of the ball of light, Hou Ying's body began to tremble slightly and then violently. One after another, the extremely powerful Seven Killing Star Qi appeared outside her, enveloping her whole person.
Xia Fanxing was dumbfounded, how could he have thought that the senior sister who was so much stronger than himself would also resist the medicinal effects of the cold plum grass so hard, and the scene in front of him was beyond his help. I don't know when, Hou Ying's saber was already in her hand, standing on the ground, trying not to let herself fall. Hou Ying's face at this time was simply delicate, red as if she had just "fought a big war", quite charming. But the medicinal properties of the cold plum grass have also raged here, and Hou Ying has already managed to maintain the balance of the spiritual energy inside and outside the body, and is struggling to absorb it.
After a while, the purple qi coiled around Hou Ying's body gathered into a ball, and her body no longer trembled so violently. Finally with his strong strength, he suppressed the effect of this murderous medicine, and Hou Ying secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It's just that her face is still ruddy. Feeling that her whole body was full of fierce energy, but the breath of her whole body had not yet been coordinated, and a long breath of relief could make her ugly - like a mortal who is full, Hou Ying couldn't restrain the breath in her chest from rolling, and after she was full, she hiccuped a not too loud but enough for the two of them to hear.
"Huh... Hmph, hum ......" Xia Fanxing was stunned for a moment when he heard it, and then burst out laughing, but he only laughed for a moment, then stopped, and snorted twice.
Hou Ying herself couldn't help laughing, as if peach blossoms were blooming on her ruddy face. She easily pulled out the saber that pierced into the ground, walked up to Xia Fanxing, and patted him on the shoulder with the hilt of the sword, her interest was obviously higher than before, "Why, haven't you heard of it? I see that when you eat this elixir, I'm afraid you are rolling on the ground, right?"
Hey, really. Xia Fanxing remembered the way he rolled on the ground when he ate the cold plum grass just now, and smiled embarrassedly, but his mouth still did not relax: "Yes, the junior brother is not talented, how can there be a senior sister who can use the power of a burp to turn the medicine into nothing, admire and admire the ......."
What the flamboyant tongue got was a heavy blow on the other shoulder, and the second senior sister, who is usually like an iceberg, would actually sneer at this time: "Is it? I don't know who can't release their spiritual power now, and their whole body is like a mortal." I have to burp him if I want him to burp, and I have to cough if I want him to cough. Why don't you let you sneeze and try it?"
Before he could react, there was a fluctuation of spiritual power from the hilt of the sword on Xia Fanxing's shoulder, and a tingling sensation spread from his shoulder to his nose. Xia Fanxing sneezed "Ah" and sneezed a lot, but he couldn't stop at all, he hit four times in a row, and his eyes were full of stars. I felt speechless and funny in my heart - the second senior sister actually has a quirky side, but it seems to be quite interesting.
"Okay, I won't mess with you, I'm now recovering my spiritual power, so I'll check the situation in your body for you. Hou Ying looked at Xia Fanxing, who was sneezing incessantly, completely like a mortal, and thought that it was time to get down to business.
However, Xia Fanxing changed his mind at this time, he rubbed his red nose and said, "Don't be too anxious about this." After my spiritual power was blocked just now, I felt that the efficiency of bone refining was much higher, and the consumption of spiritual power was also much less. I would like to take this opportunity to drill a few more solid water holes. ”
Hou Ying withdrew the sword back into her waist and said, "Since you think so, the Tao is also a good idea. However, when refining bones, no matter what way, it must not be too fast. Although your "Water God Technique" bone refining method is far different from the common law, you can't be too eager for quick success, you must lay a good foundation. ”
Xia Fanxing was already sitting cross-legged on the ground in the cave, letting go of his divine sense to check the state of his right rib, "Well, I understand. "On the right rib, there were three holes neatly pierced in the middle, and the holes were dull, as if they were a dead part of a living body. The three water holes are located in one row, and according to his prediction, this right rib can penetrate up to two hundred water holes before it can be refined into the legendary water bone. If you can maintain the high efficiency you just had, it won't be difficult.
