Chapter 19: Exploration

However, things did not go according to Xia Fanxing's wish.

Once again, he gathered the spiritual energy full of his body and blasted towards his right ribs, but he didn't have the ease and freehand just now. The three already solid water holes were like a gas hole that absorbed aura, and the hole was dim, but most of the aura that Xia Fanxing hit was absorbed by it.

A feeling of extreme tiredness returned. And those auras seemed to disappear out of thin air, and the spiritual power that successfully hit the ribs was pitiful, leaving only a slight scratch on it. Xia Fanxing didn't care about being disappointed, he only felt that the aura in his whole body had leaked more than half of it after that moment just now, and he tried to transform the aura into shape, but there were still obstacles around him that could not be broken through, blocking the aura.

Hou Ying saw a suspicious look on his face on the side, and asked with concern, "What's wrong?"

Xia Fanxing stood up, frowning, and told Hou Ying about the abnormality of the three water holes in her body just now. Hou Ying listened, but she was not surprised, but said lightly: "What's so strange about this." As I said just now, don't go too fast in bone refining, and "Water God Formula" is such a maverick bone refining method. If you hit your ribs three times in a day, of course something will happen. ”

Hou Ying's words poured a bucket of cold water on Xia Fanxing, who had just had a happy vision for refining the water bone underworld. He complained with disappointment: "It is already not easy to drill water bones according to the method mentioned in the book, and you can't cultivate too fast....... Then how many years will it take to practice this method!"

"You don't want to think about how huge the development potential of this "Water God Technique" is after it is practiced! What you should do now should not be to continue refining bones. Give your bones a good look at for a while. It's not about continuing to maintain the realm and stabilizing the foundation, you should make some preparations for your breakthrough in the foundation building period! After stepping into the foundation building, the potential of all parts of the body can be further developed, which is also of great help to bone refining. ”

Hou Ying said earnestly, and Xia Fanxing remembered that it had been more than two years since he entered the Great Condensation Consummation. In the past two years, he has been following what the people of Xinheng Dao said, stabilize his mentality, be peaceful, and not deliberately pursue a breakthrough in the realm. And in the past six months, the elders of the sect have occasionally mentioned to him that it is time to make some preparations for the promotion during the foundation building period. He also stayed in this realm for a longer time than the previous six senior brothers and sisters. It seems like it's time to take it to the next level!

"Senior Sister said well, I have been in this realm for more than two years, and if I don't take a step further, I will be caught up by Senior Brother Zhou Zhu!

"One more thing, when impacting the foundation, don't go to cultivate your 'Water God Technique'. This trick is too unstable, just like you just did, and the impact on your body is very big. The time of cultivation here is only two months, and whether you can make a breakthrough or not depends on yourself. But it's a big problem that you can't release your spiritual power right now. In this way, you try to transform the aura out of your body, and I will probe your muscles and veins with the Seven Killing Star Qi to see if there is anything abnormal. ”

Hou Ying helped so enthusiastically, Xia Fanxing was a little flattered. He had just consumed most of the aura and tried to absorb the aura in the cave, but found that even the aura outside was blocked by the "wall" in his body. In other words, he is now unable to exchange his inner and outer aura, and he is unable to exhale. In this state, it is absolutely impossible to impact the foundation. He sat down cross-legged again and said, "Then I'll bother my sister." ”

With his right hand swiped in the air, he silently recited the magic of the mortal fire in his heart. As he expected, there was not the slightest fluctuation of spiritual power in his hands. And Hou Ying's cold hand gently pressed on his neck, and a slight true breath passed down from his neck. The subtle true breath could easily pass through the "wall" in his body and enter the veins around him.

"With all your strength, try to force the aura out again!"

As soon as Zhen Xifu entered Xia Fanxing's qi and blood, Hou Ying's voice changed a little. When Xia Fanxing heard this, his eyes closed, and the spiritual power in his body operated even more violently, trying to ignite a flame in his hand. This time it was significantly better than before, and a faint flame appeared on Xia Fanxing's right hand.

"Stop, the breath in the dantian is so cold, it should be the reason here. Hou Ying shouted and removed her hand from Xia Fanxing's neck. At this time, Xia Fanxing was already sweating all over his body, panting for breath. As soon as Hou Ying took his hand away, Xia Fanxing immediately felt weak and powerless in his body after the true breath that was originally injected into his body was broken. Reaching out to wipe the sweat from his face, he cast a puzzled look at his senior sister.

"Just now, you forcibly forced out the aura of your whole body, and the muscles and veins everywhere were boiling hot. Only your dantian, which is the most original part of the aura, has a breath as cold as ice. Based on my preliminary guess from the investigation, it seems that your dantian is engaged in a self-preservation act similar to self-healing, resulting in its inability to emit or stimulate aura. According to what you said before, your current situation is caused by the blockade of the dantian aura after absorbing a large amount of cold plum grass spiritual power. According to common sense, it is common for excessive aura to pour into the body, and the body will naturally reject it.

But your dantian's reaction is too strong, and you desperately want to maintain the balance of spiritual power before and after, and that's where it's strange. That is, it led to the blockade of the aura by the dantian. But this self-preservation reaction should have saved your life just now. Silly boy, such an abundant aura, even absorbed more thoroughly than me, rushed into the body at once, your internal organs were not shattered, and you have to thank your dantian!"

Listening to Hou Ying's anger, Xia Fanxing's thoughts naturally returned to the night on Guanmei Peak that day, saving his life between life and death, blocking the aura so that he could be immune to the environment on the top of the mountain, and the changes in the dantian at that time. What the hell is this Locked Spirit Protector is really ethereal, and he is completely confused.

"What do you think? One more question, have you ever been in this situation before?"

"Ahh No, no, it's really strange today, how could such a strange thing happen..."Xia Fanxing didn't tell Hou Ying that he was thrown out like a dead dog by Xuan Neng and Shoujun. "Well... That's weird, too. When you go out, you must ask Master Xinheng to avoid it becoming a hidden danger. ”

How dare Xia Fanxing tell the people of Xinheng about the events of that night? I'm afraid it's just a coincidence, and there's nothing to say... By the way, Senior Sister, do you have any way to unlock this blockade in your body now?

"You'd better have a snack on this matter! It's not a trivial matter for a monk to have something strange in his body! As for lifting the blockade in your dantian, first, senior sister, I don't have the ability, and second, there is no need for this. It has completed self-protection before, and the thing in your dantian is now recovering, so you can't use your spiritual power now, and it is estimated that it will be fine at night. By the way, are you hungry?"

"Huh?" What is the concept of "hunger", Xia Fanxing has not experienced it for a long time. Hearing such an abrupt question from his senior sister just made him feel empty in his stomach, and hunger immediately attacked. As a monk, I feel hungry now.

"What's strange? Your current physical strength is at best a strong man among mortals. Hou Ying said lightly and continued: "If you are hungry, there are just two of us here, can the senior sister not take care of the junior brother?"

Seeing Xia Fanxing staying there, Hou Ying smiled helplessly. Drew the saber from his waist and knocked him on the leg, "Take it, I'll be out for a while and I'll be back, don't anything happen to you!"

After speaking, Hou Ying turned around and left the cave. I'm afraid that kid is still surprised that my attitude is very different from my usual attitude. Alas, how can anyone want to keep a cold face all day long? That's because as the second senior sister of so many people, Tianjiao of the sect is burdened with many unknown things in her heart. The icebergs are all made for future generations to see. This silly boy isn't usually very active, doesn't he have these funny sides? But he's really interesting, and it's funny... Pretty good......

In the evening, Hou Ying had a faint medicinal fragrance on her body, which covered up the fishy smell, and it didn't seem like going out to find food for Xia Fanxing at all. But the hare she was carrying on her back, if other sect disciples saw this appearance, I was afraid that their eyes would fall to the ground.

The unlucky Xia Fanxing, who was so hungry that he fainted, saw a figure coming in from the entrance of the cave, and wailed with his eyes closed: "Senior sister... You're going to starve me to death......"

"Oh. This place is really a treasure land, full of elixirs, and you don't pick it white. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be back today. ”

Xia Fanxing opened his eyes, listening to Hou Ying's faint tone and the hare on her back, he couldn't hold back his laughter, snorted twice and quickly turned his head over, and then he felt the thing on his waist move, the sword came out of thin air, Hou Ying threw the hare on the ground, and the sword fell on his lap. She grinned, "I cut this rabbit myself... Call me when you want to make a fire, and my sister will go study these spirit grasses first. ”

Senior sister, you don't know anything about medicinal herbs, what are you studying? Xia Fanxing only felt that his head was big for a while-he didn't even have firewood, so why did he make a fire! Senior sister is a good person who doesn't do it to the end... This must be able to fill the belly, and it will be the year of the monkey.

Or just eat it raw, but look at this rabbit full of blood... It must have tasted disgusting when eaten raw... Just thinking about it, Hou Ying threw a soft thing on him: "Hmm, this seems to be the spirit grass that is worth a bundle of firewood, right? Okay, don't be stunned, do it. ”

By the way, I seem to have brought a stove with me. Hey, that's inconvenient... Wait, although that thing doesn't go into the stream, it's an alchemy furnace anyway! The alchemy furnace is used to stew meat? Xia Fanxing angrily and amusedly glanced at the senior sister who was taking the spirit grass from the storage bag, but there was warmth in his heart.

Within an hour, Xia Fanxing recalled the experience of chopping wood and lighting a fire, stewing meat and cooking rice when he was a beginner disciple next time, and picked the hare as if it was dressed up for burial. As soon as I stopped what I was doing, the hunger pangs came back. In order to get rid of his hunger quickly, he had to take out the alchemy furnace that was not much different from ordinary furnaces. Stuffed half a hare into the furnace.

Xia Fanxing sat cross-legged on the ground, watching the fire in Hou Ying's palm licking the spirit seed commonly known as the fire grass at the bottom of the furnace, the alchemy furnace trembled slightly, as if he was very dissatisfied with the insult he had received. The aroma soon overflowed. After simmering for a while, when he was swallowing hard, Hou Ying, who had studied the spirit grass for a long time, suddenly said, "Do you know what this spirit grass is for?"
