Cold.

Somewhere, a figure couldn't help but curl up, but even so, its body was still trembling slightly.

Suddenly.

The figure screamed, then opened its eyes.

Moonlight, falling gently on its body.

I'm not dead?" the figure looked at its front paws and its long tail in disbelief.

I'm really not dead? I'm really not dead? But wasn't I just slashed to death by the villain? The figure put its long tail to its mouth and took a bite.

Ah.

It hurts, I really didn't die, but what happened just now? The villain cut off my head with a knife.

It turned out that this figure was the little snow fox.

Could it be that the one just now was a dream? The little snow fox suddenly couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. It turned out to be a dream, I thought the villain was really going to kill me, but it turned out that it wasn't, he didn't kill me, he didn't kill me. Bad guys are good guys, not bad guys. But why haven't you come to save me? Scoundrel, come and save me, I'm so scared. Oh.

It's just a pity that no matter how the little snow fox screams, it's quiet here.

It is also considered lucky for the little snow fox, there are no other monsters or animals to disturb it in this small cave.

Half a month later, the little snow fox can already stand up and walk slowly. However, it didn't dare to leave this cave very far, because it didn't know if there were other demon beasts nearby, and if there were, then with its current injuries, it would basically have to wait for death.

After another half a month, even if there was no hemostatic pill, the little snow fox's injuries finally healed.

Leaving the small cave, the little snow fox didn't know where to go, so he had to choose a side to go.

After walking for two days, the little snow fox realized that this was actually a dead end.

There was no way, the little snow fox had to go back.

This time, the little snow fox walked for seven days, and it was really out of this valley.

Discerning the direction, the little snow fox continued to move north.

It's just that after this difficulty, the figure of the little snow fox looks even more lonely and helpless.

A snow fox in the early stage of a demon general is roaming alone in Xijinzhou, which is really difficult and difficult.

Faintly, there seemed to be a monster's cry in the distance.

When the little snow fox heard this voice, he trembled lightly like a frightened bird.

I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid, the big black guy before couldn't chase me, even the big snake in the late stage of the demon couldn't kill me, I'll definitely be fine, I'll definitely find my father. The little snow fox raised his head, screamed, and then rushed forward.

Qingyun Gate.

Five Pine Mountains.

Fang Zixuan was sitting cross-legged in the room halfway up the mountain, cultivating the Soul Refining Technique.

Under the stimulation of a trace of aura, Fang Zixuan's soul power slowly increased bit by bit. And now Fang Zixuan's soul power seems to have reached a bottleneck.

In other people's soul sea, soul power is one of the colorful colors, but Fang Zixuan's soul sea is pitch black. However, despite this, Fang Zixuan could clearly "see" the ethereal soul power in his soul sea.

At this time, these soul forces were "gently" impacting the invisible barrier of the soul sea. Like the situation of the dantian, the advancement of soul power also needs to break the wall, but the difference is that although the difficulty of breaking the wall of soul power is more difficult than that of dantian, as long as you are careful, there will be no accidents. The breaking of the wall of the soul sea, even if it fails the first time, but it has no effect on the soul sea, and the next time you continue to break the wall, you will always succeed if you try a few more times. This is also due to the mystery of the Soul Refining Technique, this magical technique that has been explored by countless powerhouses in the Five Elements Continent for thousands of years has been much more moderate than the slightly rough and violent Soul Refining Technique at the beginning.

Countless soul powers swam in front of the invisible barrier like small fish, and then flicked their tails slightly. The damage caused by a small fish to the invisible barrier is negligible, but the damage caused by countless small fish gradually accumulates, and the slightest crack gradually appears in this invisible barrier, and then these cracks gradually expand.

Until a certain moment.

Whoa.

A dense cracking sound sounded in Fang Zixuan's soul sea, and then Fang Zixuan suddenly felt that his soul sea suddenly opened up.

Although his soul sea was still pitch black, at the moment of breaking the wall, Fang Zixuan seemed to see a white light flashing inside, this white light was like a rapidly falling meteor, and it flashed in Fang Zixuan's mind in an instant. However, when Fang Zixuan fixed his "eyes" to look over, he found that his soul sea was still pitch black, and he couldn't see a trace of white light at all. It was as if the meteor that was glowing white had fallen into the bottomless sea.

This time, Fang Zixuan was shocked, because this seemed to be the second time he had seen this white light. The last time was when I broke through the third layer of my soul refining technique, I thought it was an illusion and didn't care about it at that time, but this time it was like this, which was enough to prove that this white light was definitely not my illusion.

Thinking of this, Fang Zixuan hurriedly mobilized his soul power, and then began to carefully examine his soul sea.

But the strange thing is that this time, like last time, there is no discovery.

No, no, there is definitely a problem, and it is absolutely impossible for me to be wrong twice. Fang Zixuan, who was slightly shocked in his heart, carefully checked his soul sea again.

In the sea of souls, it was still pitch black, this pitch black, very pure, without a trace of impurities.

Fang Zixuan couldn't help but shudder. Where the hell is that damn white light hiding? It must exist, but I didn't find it, no, I couldn't find it. But I haven't heard Master say that there will be impurities in the black soul sea. Just kidding, this is the sea of people's souls, not the ordinary ocean of the outside world, it is normal for the ocean to be mixed with all kinds of impurities, but the sea of souls is mixed with impurities, then it is terrible, if those impurities are harmful to the soul sea, then wouldn't you become an idiot?

Idiot, this is a taboo for martial artists, the vast majority of martial artists would rather die than become idiots, which is why many martial artists know that they will be killed by their opponents, but they dare not easily use their soul power to fight to the death with their opponents. Of course, this is also because the soul power strength and soul refining technique cultivation of most martial artists are not high, and those who have indigo soul power strength or above, and think that they have cultivated the soul refining technique well, do you think they dare to fight to the death at the moment of life and death?

Fang Zixuan did not give up and carefully checked his soul sea a few more times, but the strange thing was that his soul sea was very normal and not weird.

Hehe, it seems that with my current soul refining cultivation, I can't find this white light, but next time I must find you, since you appeared twice at the moment of my breakthrough, then next time I will catch your tail at this moment and see where you end up escaping. Fang Zixuan made up his mind.

Although there was a little abnormal phenomenon when he broke through, Fang Zixuan's fourth-level soul refining technique could be regarded as a successful cultivation after all.

Generally speaking, the successful cultivation of the fourth-level soul refining technique of most martial artists is a matter of the martial marquis realm, this is because the fourth-level soul refining technique generally takes about one hundred and twenty years to cultivate, unless you completely give up cultivation and instead specialize in cultivating the soul technique, then the cultivation time will be significantly shortened, but this kind of upside down approach is something that no one will do. No matter how well you cultivate the Soul Refining Technique, it is not as important as cultivation, and your lifespan is gone, even if you cultivate the Soul Refining Technique to the eighth layer?

Strange, how could it be that this time was the same as when cultivating the third layer of soul refining techniques, the time had been shortened by nearly half? Fang Zixuan was very puzzled. It seems that the cultivation of the second and third layers of soul refining techniques has been shortened by about half compared to ordinary people, this is not accidental, but inevitable. If that's the case, it would be great, I was always worried that the cultivation of the Five Holy Tips would be too time-consuming, and at that time, I was only afraid that the cultivation of the Soul Refining Technique would fall slightly, but now it seems that the cultivation of the Soul Refining Technique should be able to keep up with the pace of the Five Sacred Tips, and may even exceed the progress of the Five Holy Tips, just like now, I am obviously only in the middle stage of the martial arts, but the Soul Refining Technique is already the fourth layer of the realm.

Suddenly, Fang Zixuan shuddered, because this thing was definitely strange, and it was not simple and strange, this strange thing was not only the strange white light, but also the obvious shortening of the cultivation time. But then I thought that the strange things on my body were one after another, one more than one, and one less and not a lot. With his current strength, can he manage it? When it comes to soul power, let alone himself in the martial arts realm, even if he is a strong person in the martial saint realm, he probably doesn't dare to say anything. Although the soul refining technique is relatively mature, the soul sea is still a forbidden place for martial artists, and it is not a peerless genius with extraordinary wisdom, talent, soul strength and perseverance, and he will never dare to get involved in it.

Why don't you ask Master about this matter yourself? With his knowledge, he should know something, and it is better than blindly guessing by himself. Well, so it was decided. Anyway, Master won't harm himself. When he gets out, I'll ask him myself. Fang Zixuan thought to himself.

Now that the Soul Refining Technique has successfully cultivated the fourth layer, next, the question of whether to learn the refining of the third-rank pill and the fourth-grade pill is placed in front of Fang Zixuan.

If you really want to learn, even if you are not in the realm of Wuhou, you should still be fine with your aura. But the most urgent thing in front of me is alchemy, resources, and cultivation. Because outside the Qingyun Gate, there was still a group of unidentified people from the Wuhou Perfection Realm who were waiting for them to go out and die, and alchemy was of no help to them in this regard. Since this is the case, then he should not be in a hurry to cultivate alchemy now, it is not too late to talk about this matter when he reaches the Wuhou realm, even if the strength of that group of people is very strong, but if he advances to the Wuhou realm, will he still be afraid of them like now? Absolutely not. Fang Zixuan was convinced that he must be one of the strongest among the martial artists in the same realm. These self-confidence come from the Five Sacred Techniques of the Heavenly Rank Exercises and the Vermilion Bird Fist recorded in it, the Five Elements Law of Seventy Percent and the Destruction Fist Intent of Thirty Percent.
