Chapter 44: The Flying Sword and the Golden Body
Meng Xiao's figure flew back and forth around the nine-tailed ground scorpion, whether he used the Changchun Fist or launched the Feiyun Sword, the hard carapace of the ground scorpion would not be injured at all, so it was basically impossible for Meng Xiao to defeat the ground scorpion. On the contrary, after fighting with Meng Xiao for a few rounds, the ground scorpion found that Shi Ji didn't seem to have any intention of making a move, so it gradually became fierce, and the two giant claws flew, not to mention that they swept directly on Meng Xiao's body, even if the strong wind was very strong, so Meng Xiao could only toss and turn, not daring to touch it, and beware of the black venom that spewed out of the mouthparts at any time, and from time to time the eight tails would launch surprise attacks.
Three tail pins sealed Meng Xiao's retreat, a puff of pitch-black mucus rushed to his face, seeing that there was no way to go to the sky and no way to enter the ground, Meng Xiao had to desperately shake the giant chela on the left side of his body with a Changchun fist, the palms touched, and the strong force directly tore the clothes on Meng Xiao's body to pieces, and there was no wisp left, Meng Xiao also happened to fly out upside down with his strength, although he fell on the wall and shook off a lot of soil, but he finally avoided the fatal attack.
Meng Xiao slapped his hands on the wall, and then flashed and attacked the giant scorpion, the giant scorpion just didn't kill Meng Xiao with one blow, obviously a little unwilling, the mouthparts squirmed, and more venom was condensed, and the eight tails behind him also chose the angle, seeing this scene, Meng Xiao's eyes flashed a touch of determination, maybe this blow will be a life and death!
Drink! Meng Xiao roared, and the trick piece on his chest actually fluttered, and at the same time, a soft sound came from Meng Xiao's mind, "The trick piece has the potential to launch, the fighting method immortal power is 20, the potential is 9, the nine grades are incomplete, and the characteristics are solid." Meng Xiao didn't have time to think about it, only Shi Ji noticed that his body seemed to be shrouded in a faint earthy yellow halo.
The ground scorpion's two huge claws claws slammed towards Meng Xiao, and at the same time, the eight tails behind him also attacked with a very delicate formation, vaguely sealing the top of Meng Xiao's head and all directions, leaving only his feet, but a huge cloud of venom had already brewed in its mouthparts.
Wrapped in a halo, Meng Xiao was like a silkworm moth flying towards a bonfire.
"Idiot!" Shi Ji frowned slightly, there seemed to be some hesitation in his eyes, time passed in the blink of an eye, Meng Xiao had been completely cut off by the ground scorpion, just waiting for the venom to squirt out and bury his life, Shi Ji's hand suddenly held out a purple-red gourd, she threw the gourd into the sky, and then pointed to a big claw of the giant scorpion, only to see the gourd "swish" turn, a silver light shot out, and the giant claw fell to the ground silently.
Meng Xiao was fighting hard, and the immortal power of the trick piece was also consumed, and it seemed that he couldn't support it, a giant claw that was attacking on the right side suddenly fell to the ground like it had lost its support, and suddenly came to life, Meng Xiao hurriedly swept out of the encirclement set by the ground scorpion, and at this moment, the pitch-black slime almost sprayed into the air against his body.
The ground scorpion broke its claws and screamed miserably, and the two beans looked at the purple-red gourd in mid-air, and retreated in horror.
Meng Xiao hurriedly looked up, only to see a purple-red gourd floating in mid-air, surrounded by a layer of faint clouds, and a voice suddenly appeared in his mind, "Red Flame Gourd, Fighting Immortal Power 156, Potential Unknown, First-grade Immortal Weapon, Unknown Characteristics, Unknown Recognition State, Karma ...... Fierce" A series of countless messages sounded in his head, and Meng Xiao couldn't remember all of them for a while, only the 156 Fighting Immortal Power surprised him, and he remembered that the full potential of Tianhua Hall was only in his sixties, and the immortal sword specially mentioned by the master was far inferior to this gourd.
Shi Ji waved his hand to collect the gourd, and in Meng Xiao's stunned gaze, he only heard her say lightly: "Forget it, you are not its opponent after all." Meng Xiao didn't quite understand Shi Ji's words, but the scorpion knew the power of the gourd, waved a giant claw, crawled over and picked up the soil at the entrance of the cave, and soon fled without a trace. After saying that, Shi Ji quietly watched the ground scorpion escape, she didn't speak, and Meng Xiao could only be silent and not speak.
After a while, Shi Ji seemed to come back to his senses, his indifferent eyes swept over Meng Xiao's body, and then casually threw over a book, "This is given to you by Tianzun, within three months, whether it is completed or not, I will come again and send you out of here, but at that time everything here will have to be left as it is." With that, she vanished.
Meng Xiao opened the book and looked at it carefully, saying that it was a book, but in fact it was only a dozen pages, it looked like it was made of a strange animal skin, the first nine pages described a kind of exercise called "King Kong does not break the body", and the last seven pages were a method of refining a flying sword.
"King Kong is not bad?" Meng Xiao studied every character in the book hungrily, he now understood that he was like a teapot without a mouth, with a lot of energy empty in his stomach, but he could not release it, King Kong is not bad, listening to this name is like a defensive exercise, if he can really reach the level that King Kong is not bad, wouldn't he be invincible before he fights?
"I was really lucky. The corners of Meng Xiao's mouth opened slightly, and at the end of the exercise, it was clearly written that it was not difficult to cultivate this skill, but there was only one thing that was difficult to find, that is, the magic weapon for practice, which needed to be based on the skin and bones of demons and beasts, and then take its essence and blood to quench the body, so as to become a Vajra incorruptible Dharma body. However, this way is not the authentic immortal law after all, in the final analysis, it is still the art of refining.
Meng Xiao looked back again, the last seven pages are the recipe for refining flying swords, taking heaven and earth spiritual materials, all kinds of wonderful things can be refined, refining ninety-nine spirit swords, infinitely useful, but also powerful, but in this cave that does not know the depths, where to find this heaven and earth spiritual materials?
"Forget it, no matter how much, let's practice this King Kong first. Meng Xiao made up his mind, and his thoughts turned to the golden centipede, only to see that the golden centipede had died for nine points at this time, and the tail end was stung by the scorpion at the end of the place, and the scorpion venom entered the body, and now there are six or seven zhang long are purple and black colors, and after a little thought, the place infected by the poisonous gas is not usable, but the golden centipede itself is a highly poisonous thing, if the exercise is not good, it will harm his life.
Meng Xiao pondered the scroll carefully, and studied it for three days and three nights, which can be described as a backward remedy, unimpeded, and at this time, the golden centipede was also dead, but it was a pity that he wasted his essence in vain, if Meng Xiao knew how to absorb and practice, his cultivation would also improve. Now that the golden dragon was dead, Meng Xiao used the Feiyun Sword to attack the limbs, carefully avoiding the yellow mist and golden light, and it took a lot of effort to peel off a golden shell more than four feet long, the golden shell was really hard, and the Feiyun Sword could hardly leave a trace when it crossed it.
"Good thing, really good thing!" Meng Xiao was amazed, but it was a pity that Shi Ji only gave three months, if it was graced to three years, Meng Xiao was confident that he could completely dismember this golden dragon inch by inch, but even if it was completely dismembered, with his current cultivation, he would not need so much.
Holding the golden shell that was more than four feet long, Meng Xiao exercised according to the scroll, time flies, twenty days later, the original four-foot-long golden shell has been refined by Meng Xiao only the size of a fingernail, and then half of it is exercised, it can be completely integrated into his own essence and blood, even now, as long as Meng Xiao's heart moves, his left arm and back will become a faint dark gold color.
Refining the first golden shell, Meng Xiao took almost a month, just a finger, if he wants to refine this exercise, he has to refine at least four golden shells, three months is absolutely not enough, and when the final success is completed, it is necessary to quench the body with the essence blood of this demon beast, in desperation, Meng Xiao had to peel off the three golden shells first, and one of them contained some golden centipede blood in the silver horn, and then took a piece of gold shell and began to cultivate.
This time, Meng Xiao was familiar with the road, it only took less than a day to take these four golden shells, and it took another twenty-three or four days to cultivate, and finally refined his arms, chest and back into a pale gold color.
"The time given by Shangwei Zhenren is too short. Meng Xiao was a little puzzled, since he wanted to let himself practice these two major exercises, why did he set such a short deadline and prepare three golden shells, Meng Xiao began to shift his attention to refining the Spirit Slashing Flying Sword.
Maybe there is a suitable heaven and earth spiritual material at hand, Meng Xiao dissected the golden centipede, when he peeled off the golden shell, when he took the essence blood, he found that there was a white vertebrae on each section of the golden centipede's body, which was not only very hard, but also extremely sharp, Meng Xiao had tried to draw the golden shell on the vertebrae, leaving a mark that was even clearer than the Feiyun Sword, but if you want to remove the vertebrae, you must first cut open the entire golden shell.
Looking at the golden centipede more than 20 zhang long, Meng Xiao couldn't help but feel melancholy, he couldn't bear any place, and then he spent a few days dismembering most of the golden centipede, and even the places stained by the scorpion venom were also involved, fortunately, after this time, the scorpion venom has been dissolved a lot in the body of the golden centipede.
After completely dissecting the golden centipe, Meng Xiao noticed that the scorpion claw that was cut off by Shi Ji was actually an incomparably hard thing.
"It's a pity, it's a pity!" Meng Xiao made a choice again and again, even if King Kong was not bad, he was only halfway refined, and he could find materials in the future, but this golden centipede vertebrae were rare, and finally he began to exercise the Spirit Slashing Flying Sword, and the flying sword was not difficult to say according to the style of the Feiyun Sword.
The multi-eyed golden centipede is a fierce insect in the wilderness, and its spiritual power is originally unusual and comparable, just because it is still young, the spiritual root vertebrae were refined by Meng Xiao with divine skills, originally this golden centipede had a total of one hundred and three vertebrae, if it was refined by Meng Xiao, it could become a good magic weapon, but it was a pity that Shangwei set a period of three months.
On the day when the deadline was fulfilled, Meng Xiao was refining the thirty-second Spirit Slashing Flying Sword, and even this speed was far beyond Shang Wei's expectations.
