The blood vulture landed in front of the animal pen in the southern stone village with a hiss, where a young man of twenty-three or fourteen years old, with a tall posture and a resolute face, with simple short hair, looked indeed the same age as Shi Yun.

When the man saw Shi Da landing, he immediately stepped forward and hugged his fist, "Captain! The assessment is ready! ”

"Hmmm! Ah Xiao, you've been waiting for a long time! Shi Da is obviously Shi Xiao's boss, Li Chen only listened to a conversation between the two and heard the tone that naturally brought out the communication between the boss and his subordinates, this is not just a junior's admiration for his elders.

"It's okay, Captain! Your injuries aren't healed yet, so why are you running around! As soon as Shi Xiao opened his mouth, he said a piece of information that Li Chen didn't understand.

", you're hurt!?" Li Chen asked with concern, these days, Shi Da has been accompanying him to participate in the assessment without sleep, and he also accepted this kindness as he should be, but he didn't expect that Brother Shi Da would accompany him from village to village with an injury.

"Haha, Brother Li Chen don't have to worry, my injury was just plotted outside, and it dropped a few levels, and when this blood vine trial is over, the children can take out the holy water from the holy land in the clan and recover, there is no big problem!" Shi Da looked unconcerned.

Li Chen felt that this big brother Shi Da was really not an ordinary person, and he was still an idler after dropping a few levels, just this attitude alone was not something that ordinary people could do.

And he was actually a little strange when he first saw Shi Yun, it stands to reason that Shi Da is more than ten years older than Shi Yun, and Shi Yun is also a master of the congenital stage, if it is under normal circumstances, Shi Da's strength with the innate triple heaven should not be enough to convince people in various villages to believe him.

Now Shi Xiao explained the key to the problem, it turned out that Shi Da was originally the strength of the late congenital stage, but he was conspired by other forces in the outside world, so he fell to the congenital triple heaven and returned to the village to recuperate, and just happened to meet Li Chen again, so he came out to take a look in various villages by the way.

And this Shi Xiao in front of him is also a member of their Shicun clan's caravan escort outside, and he is Shi Da's direct subordinate, and this time he also escorted Shi Da back to the Shicun clan.

After Shi Da and Shi Xiao exchanged pleasantries, Shi Xiao led Li Chen to the assessment place in Shicun in the south.

Like the stone forest in the southern stone village, the assessment place of this southern stone village and other villages is also obviously different, and Shi Xiao led Li Chen straight into a stone tower.

The stone pagoda in the southern stone village is not only covered with crystals on the periphery, but also inside the stone pagoda, exuding a strange glow.

There is a stone staircase more than three meters wide and two meters high in the stone tower used for the assessment, and both sides of the stone steps are also full of crystals that can emit light on their own, so there is no need to light a torch to enter this assessment place.

The group went straight down the stairs, about twenty meters down, Li Chen could already feel the damp and hot breath in the soil, but the passage in front of him suddenly opened up, and a circular cave with a diameter of about twenty meters appeared directly in front of the three of them.

The stone walls of the cave are also full of glowing crystals, and in the center of the cave is a man-made stone platform that lies there, and around the stone platform is a pool of water, and the water in the pool is still steaming.

"Mr. Li, go up to the stone platform!" Shi Xiao opened his mouth and Mr. Li made Li Chen a little stunned, why did the times suddenly change!?

But when he thought about it, he was relieved, originally this was the spiritual world, just a title, and there was nothing to pay attention to.

Li Chen walked up to the stone platform according to Shi Xiao's instructions, and saw that there were nine stone bowls on top of the stone platform, and in each stone bowl was a small cluster of light blue thumb-sized crystals.

And these nine stone bowls formed a circle, and in this circle gave birth to a crimson crystal the thickness of an adult's thigh, and the tip of this crystal was just flush with the nine stone bowls.

"Mr. Li, there are numbers on each stone bowl, you swallow the crystals inside in order of numbers, and each time you swallow the next crystal, you will enter the pool next to it and soak it for a while, and when you finish accepting the inheritance, you will go to the stone platform and use the leg method to smash the crystal in the center to pass the assessment of this layer!" Neither Shi Xiao nor Shi Da could get close to the stone platform in the inheritance, but they were only commanding Li Chen not far away.

Li Chen looked according to Shi Xiao's command, but found nine numbers at the bottom of each stone bowl, but Li Chen didn't directly take the crystal in the first stone bowl, he tried to put his hand into the ninth stone bowl, and found that it was really blocked by a light shield of the stone bowl, and his hand couldn't reach into it at all.

Li Chen gave up the opportunistic method and took out the crystal in the first stone bowl. At first, he thought that this crystal must be extremely hard, even if it is pressed by a hydraulic press, it is difficult to crush it, but as soon as Li Chen took the crystal in his hand, he felt a cold air surging into his whole body from his fingers.

And the touch between your fingers is like grasping a smooth jelly, and it is not as hard as you imagined.

Li Chen tried to squeeze it hard, but the crystal in his hand was not deformed, it seemed that the so-called jelly was just an illusion on his part, just like a warm jade, it looked very soft, but in fact it was extremely tough.

Li Chen threw the light blue crystal the size of a broad bean into his mouth, Li Chen just shook his whole body, and then he felt that the small crystal melted in his mouth, turning into countless cold currents and integrating into his body, Li Chen immediately had a feeling of being frozen.

Li Chen didn't dare to hesitate more, and jumped directly into the hot pool on the side.

A thick water vapor rose as Li Chen jumped into the pool, and the entire stone platform was shrouded in a thick white mist, making it impossible for outsiders to see.

Li Chen was now so cold that his entire soul couldn't wake up, and he felt a chill running down his mouth and esophagus, quickly occupying all the enlightenment lights in his body.

The chill quickly broke through the defenses of Li Chen's various organs, and it was like a bamboo, and soon Li Chen's internal organs fell into a cold.

Li Chen knew that this cold qi was also a special divine power, but with his current strength, it was impossible to mobilize them or disperse them.

And now the warm water in the pool of the outside water that enveloped Li Chen was slowly sending heat to Li Chen's body through Li Chen's pores.

These heat currents did not directly encounter the cold qi, they seemed to have their own consciousness and circled back and forth in Li Chen's body, completely untouched by the cold qi.

However, where these heat currents passed, those cold breaths seemed to have been greatly resisted and could not be overcome for a long time.

"Whew!" This was a feeling that was even more intense than bringing the two elemental rings of ice and fire in the western stone village, and Li Chen's body was completely in two states inside and out.

The abundant heat in the external pools completely sealed those cold qi in Li Chen's body, not allowing them to expand or escape at all.

And what's worse is that although these heat currents block the flow of those cold air, they don't release heat at all to balance the temperature in Li Chen's body. They were just drumming and trying to seal those cold qi in Li Chen's internal organs.
