"Wow Ka Ka Ka it's finally out. Zhang Qiang didn't dare to relax in the slightest, and rushed directly to the talisman array at the door of the stone house not far away, at this moment the heavy rain was pouring, and the sky and the earth were boundless.

Roar~~

With a roar, a bang, the "Ice Silkworm Demon" monster broke through the ice from the cold pool, and the huge and hideous ice silkworm head swept around, and suddenly its eyes locked on Zhang Qiang.

"Roar~~" The huge monster body of the 'Ice Silkworm Great Demon' burst out violently, and bit Zhang Qiang in the formation with one bite.

said that it was too late, it was too fast, Zhang Qiang stomped his foot violently, and floated back. Immediately afterwards, I saw that on the ground within a radius of ten zhang, the black and white Taiji light cluster appeared, and the faint light flow in the light cluster, and the 'Ice Silkworm Demon' at this time happened to fly into the circle.

"Yaya, kill you dead monster!" Zhang Qiang roared angrily, and the 'Qingwei Thunder Fire Sword' in his hand drew a huge sword light, with a sharp qi explosion, slashing towards the head of the Great Ice Silkworm.

"Snort~~" The huge sword light on the scales of the big silkworm demon, it was difficult to split a small hole, blood seeped out from the head of the big silkworm demon, and the body of the big silkworm demon in the array was stunned, and then it was wrapped in a huge circle of light.

There was a vast amount of water between heaven and earth, and the 'Ice Silkworm Great Demon' trapped in the formation struggled to hit the 'rune array' with his body, and the aura of the 'white mist' in his mouth spewed thin, and the rune array set up by Zhang Qiang was broken in an instant. When the talisman array broke, the 'Ice Silkworm Great Demon' found that he couldn't see Zhang Qiang's figure in his pale golden eyes.

The blood-stained skull of the 'Ice Silkworm Demon' was extremely angry, and as soon as he shook his head and opened his mouth of blood, he sprayed wantonly in all directions, and the 'white mist' erupted from its mouth and spread out to the surroundings, and the surrounding stone houses and mountain walls were touched by this 'white mist', and immediately turned into gravel powder and flowed downward.

"Roar~~~"

Halfway up the mountain, the terrifying Ice Silkworm Monster roared at the sky, venting its anger, and the surrounding mountain walls trembled, as if trembling at the Ice Silkworm Monster's anger.

After a long time, this ice silkworm monster could only retract unwillingly into the cold pool in the lake, and the cold pool regained its calm, and soon a thick layer of ice appeared on the surface of the cold pool.

......

At the foot of the cliff, Zhang Qiang stood in the forest, ignoring the pouring rain, looking up at the halfway up the mountainside, and when he saw this 'Ice Silkworm' monster raising his head and roaring at the sky, his heart was shocked.

"I don't know what's so strange about the cold pool at the bottom of the lake that such a terrible monster could be bred. If I hadn't run fast today, I'm afraid my life would have been lost here. "Since Zhang Qiang cultivated the Tao, he began to understand that the aura of heaven and earth can make human beings stronger because of cultivation, and it will also give birth to terrifying monsters. Zhang Qiang was sighing to himself, when suddenly a voice came.

"Hey, this Xiaoice silkworm actually has a spiritual root, old man, I haven't prepared the formation yet, and I was actually run away by it again." The old man of the forest ranger walked with a hat, a robe, a hoe, and a bundle of silver nets of unknown material around his waist.

"Wow Ka Ka, this senior is really, just as unreliable as my Uncle Xuanxu, the same 'pit father'. Zhang Qiang scolded for a while.

"Young man, not bad, not bad, to be able to retreat from the cold pool at the bottom of the lake, and to temporarily trap that Xiaoice silkworm with the rune array for a while, it is really good, worthy of praise." Hehe..."The old man nodded at Zhang Qiang and praised.

"Senior, please ask me to do it for you next time, at least you have to explain the situation clearly, right? You told me before that the little demon in the cold pool at the bottom of the lake is a little 'Ice Silkworm Demon', and there will be no danger in the way of the juniors. But the younger generation is just 'nine deaths and one life', if it weren't for my luck as a boy, and I left a 'Tai Chi Fu Array' passed down by the master before setting off to do the back road, I would be miserable today. Zhang Qiang said helplessly and depressedly.

"Young man, what you said is not right, the old man, I haven't seen this Xiaoice silkworm for almost a hundred years, and when I met it when I was young, it was several times smaller than now; the old man didn't expect that this 'Xiaoice silkworm, which had only been practicing for hundreds of years, would mutate to such a big size." Alas... It's really a big world, and there are no surprises!" the old man sighed.

Zhang Qiang was about to speak, but the old man of the forest ranger continued: "However, as the saying goes, 'wealth and danger are sought', you kid is a person with deep fortune, how can a person with 'heavenly fortune' be so easy to finish? haha..."

"Seniors, what is the meaning of 'heavenly fortune', the younger generations don't understand, and ask the seniors for some advice. Zhang Qiang asked a little helplessly.

"You kid should be the 'son of fire' in the 'Chosen Five', this trip must be to participate in the 'Underworld Trial', and then go with other 'Chosen Sons' to strengthen the seal of the demon star 'Houqing'. In other words, you kid adheres to the way of heaven, is favored by heaven, and participates in the sealing of the 'Demon Star Queen', you say, you are unlucky, so easy to finish, can you say the past?" said the old man with a solemn face.

"This..."Zhang Qiang was dumbfounded for a while.

"Besides, your kid's trip to the cold pool at the bottom of the lake, with the help of the 'cold ice qi' of the Xiaoice silkworm, indirectly broke some of the prohibitions of the 'Qingwei Thunder Fire Sword'. Indirectly makes the power of the 'Qingwei Thunder Fire Sword' stronger, so that it can resist the 'cold ice qi' of the Xiaoice silkworm, and then with the help of the 'thunder fire qi' and 'cold ice qi', all the medicinal power of the pills you took before in your body is dissolved. Before, your 'Early Stage of Human Immortals' peak realm was still a little vain, but now it has begun to be consummated, haven't you noticed that your spiritual power and internal power in your body are unimpeded?

"Uh..." Zhang Qiang was speechless for a while.

"Hey, what is in your boy's sack, it's actually glowing red! It can't be that you found some treasure in the cold pool at the bottom of the lake, right? By the way, did you find the box I wanted you to find?" the old man wondered.

"Well, senior, this is the box you wanted. Zhang Qiang came to his senses, took out a large box from the 'Thunderbolt Small Cloth Bag' that had not had time to close the mouth of the bag before, and moved it to the old man of the forest ranger.

"Hey, your cloth bag is a 'thunderbolt small cloth bag', it seems that Xuanxu kid is quite good to you, and he is willing to give you this treasure. It's a pity that your kid is only used as a storage bag, which is really a bit of a waste. But that's right, with your current state, you can't use this bag, and it's good to be a storage bag and hold some little demons and ghosts. The old man of the forest ranger said a series of words, and Zhang Qiang was confused.

"Senior, do you mean that this bag in the hands of the juniors seems to have a lot of origins, and it has other functions?" Zhang Qiang looked at the 'Thunderbolt Small Cloth Bag' in his hand with a puzzled face, and asked.

"Well, this, when you can reach the 'Earth Immortal' realm, you will naturally know the use of this bag. Let's not talk about this for the time being, you kid honestly, did you pick up any treasure in the cold pool at the bottom of the lake this time? What is the red light coming out of your bag just now?" the old ranger smiled.

Zhang Qiang took out two pieces of ore from the 'Thunderbolt Small Cloth Bag', held them in his hand, and suddenly whispered: "Hey, isn't there a red halo in Hantan? Then he hurriedly covered the ore with his hands to block the light, and sure enough, in the dark situation, Zhang Qiang barely saw a faint faint red halo. It is estimated that in the cold pool, under complete darkness conditions, there are more such ores, so this red halo is obvious.

"In the cold pool, I felt that this ore was quite hot, but now I feel that it is just warm. Zhang Qiang also understood that in the outside world, he felt that the ore was warm.

"What is this?" At first glance, the old man of the forest ranger saw that the two ores in Zhang Qiang's hands were very ordinary.

"Oh, at the bottom of the cold pool?" The old man of the forest ranger had a light eye, as one of the top weapon craftsmen in the Dao Sect, the old man of the forest guard knew a lot about refining minerals.

As soon as he touched the black ore, the old man of the forest ranger showed a look of surprise on his face: "It turned out to be warm...... even took a piece of black ore in front of him, closed his hands to block the light, and looked carefully, the old man of the forest guard suddenly exclaimed, "It's really it, it's really it, 'thousand-year-old fire crystal'!"

Zhang Qiang was full of doubts: "Senior, what is the 'thousand-year-old fire crystal'?"

The old man raised his head and looked at Zhang Qiang in surprise and said, "Young man, don't you know the 'Millennium Fire Crystal'? The 'Qingwei Thunder Fire Sword' in your hand is this 'Millennium Fire Crystal', which attracts thunder and lightning from the sky and has been tempered for a hundred years." ”

"The 'Qingwei Thunder Fire Sword' in my hand is made of 'thousand-year-old fire crystal', drawing thunder and lightning from the sky, and refining it for a hundred years?" Zhang Qiang was stunned. Suddenly, he thought of it, as if the spiritual thought incarnation of the Qing Patriarch who was in the 'Clear Microsecond Transformation Cave' before also said the same.

"Ordinary 'fire crystal' has a hot temperature to the touch. And this 'thousand-year-old fire crystal' has reached the extreme, but it has become warm as jade, and it is not hot at all. The old man held the two stones handed to him by Zhang Qiang and muttered to himself.

"Yes, yes, 'fire crystal' is generally a kind of ore naturally formed after volcanic eruptions, and the number is extremely rare, and this 'thousand-year-old fire crystal' is formed by these 'fire crystals' melted, merged, decomposed, and recombined by volcanic high temperatures, and slowly melted and merged, and formed after thousands of years. The general 'fire crystal' is indestructible, refining weapons, only need to mix some into it, you can refine it into a divine weapon, and it also comes with some fire attributes. The old man was very excited, "This 'thousand-year-old fire crystal' is worth a hundred times that of ordinary 'fire crystal'!"

"Boy, you have really gained a lot from the cold pool at the bottom of the lake this time. Envy the old man. "The old man of the forest ranger, as a weaponsmith, saw the legendary 'thousand-year-old fire crystal', of course, he was excited and hot-headed.

"Well, senior, I wonder if my 'thousand-year-old fire crystal' can find someone to help me make some equipment, such as armor, bracers, etc.? Zhang Qiang took out several pieces of 'Millennium Fire Crystal' from the 'Thunderbolt Small Cloth Bag' and asked.

"Oh, you kid, what do you want me to say about you, don't you understand? That is, a decent person like the old man and me, if you want to change to someone else, you can't help but 'kill people and sell goods'! Hmph...!" The old man said with a slight displeasure. On the one hand, he lamented Zhang Qiang's good luck and his 'missed encounter' with the 'thousand-year-old fire crystal'; on the other hand, he lamented that Zhang Qiang's heart was pure and good-natured, and he was invisibly put in the position of a decent and good person in the Daomen, which made him embarrassed to ask for the things of his juniors.

"Eh, juniors, thank you seniors for mentioning something!" Zhang Qiang heard the words of the old man of the forest ranger, and hurriedly responded respectfully.

"That's it, that's it, for the sake of your sincerity and respect for my old man, I'll make an exception for you, old man, to help you refine a talisman inner armor and a bracer. However, refining the inner armor and bracers will require the consumption of some of my other precious materials, so when the inner armor and bracers are refined, you will have to give me some remaining 'thousand-year-old fire crystals' to compensate." The old man waved his hand.

"That's natural, then there is Senior Lao!" Zhang Qiang replied with a look of surprise. I was overjoyed: "I really didn't expect that the ore in the cold pool at the bottom of the lake is actually a refining treasure, and what is even more surprising is that this old-timer is actually a refining master." Wow!"
