Chapter 16: She wants her to think she can
Knife-like cliffs rise from the ground, and the steep cliffs are as if they had been slashed with a giant axe.
Halfway up the steep cliff, there is a wall hole with a sharp top and a wide bottom, like a beehive built in a dead corner, quietly hidden in the embrace of the mountain peak, waiting for someone to discover.
The temperature in the cave was almost able to steam eggs due to the mutation of the flames that overflowed from the Cangyan Jinpeng, and the heat flow on his face made the robe on the body of Qianren Xue, who had just stepped into the cave, quickly wet with sweat, and his little face was flushed, as if he had experienced sun exposure, and even the ground was extremely hot.
"Teacher, the living environment of Cangyan Jinpeng is too hot." Qianyue's voice was hoarse, like a traveler walking in the desert, and her throat was thirsty for a long time.
Wei Ming, who was walking in front of Qianrenxue and exploring the way for her, heard this, and said without looking back: "Not bad." This kind of soul beast of Cangyan Jinpeng is not only rare, but the place where they inhabit will occasionally produce unexpected surprises. That's why I want you to go into the cave and experience it yourself. ”
"Surprise?"
This can involve the blind spot of Qianrenxue's theoretical knowledge.
"Xiaoxue, look at what's in front of you." Wei Ming stopped, a little smile in his voice.
Qian Lingxue walked to the teacher's side curiously, and her eyes suddenly widened when she saw it.
"What a beautiful nest..."
Countless branches-like strips are all red, and they are crystal clear and magnificent, and there are even faint wisps of red light flowing inside, winding into a huge oval-shaped bird's nest in the deepest part of the cave.
Around the nest, there are also large and small white and gold bird feathers.
"This is... Borneo? Qianrenxue's attention was completely attracted by the magnificent "crystal" bird's nest, and she hesitantly rummaged through her memory to find the name of the spirit plant that echoed it.
That's right, it's a spirit plant, not a crystal mineral.
The long branch-like strips of crystal are not formed by the melting of hard ore, but are a natural treasure that can only grow in hot areas, even next to active volcanoes.
Medication can cure cold poison and change body cold. Applied externally to the body, it can temporarily obtain the ability to avoid fire, and the bare feet will not burn a little skin when stepping on the molten slurry, but the effect is only 15 minutes at most, and you have to make up for it once in 10 minutes.
Wei Ming lowered his hand and asked, "Xiaoxue, what are the growing conditions for Borneo?" ”
Qianyue subconsciously replied: "Growing in a high-temperature environment, the hotter the better." ”
"Yes. The temperature of the natural companion flames of Cangyan Jinpeng is particularly high, and just the fire elemental aura that exudes can turn the air of the entire wall hole dug into a steamer, not to mention that they often lie in the nest. There is no need to be deliberate, it naturally nourishes these brahma, who can live without roots. Wei Ming explained the knowledge outside the textbook.
"Earlier, Cangyan Jinpeng was frequently hunted and killed by soul masters because of Brahma, which caused its race to become rare, and it was not until the establishment of the Wuhun Hall and the promulgation of the conditions and conditions of the soul master code that people realized that they should restrain themselves and stop killing indiscriminately."
When he said this, Wei Ming and Youyan puffed up their chests.
"As the young master of the Soul Palace, Xiaoxue, you may also inherit the position of the supreme authority of the Soul Hall in the future, and you may supplement and modify the conditions in the Soul Master Code, but you must not forget your original intention, it is to protect."
"Well, I know the teacher!" The corners of Qian Lingxue's mouth also raised a smile, remembering the extracurricular knowledge taught by the teacher in her heart.
The expressions of the two soul saints who silently followed behind one big and one small did not fluctuate in any way, and they looked like they were taking a leisurely walk.
However, the muscles under their dark armor were tense and bulging, and they were always on alert.
Qian Lingxue stepped forward, picked up a large white-gold feather scattered around the nest, looked at the thick golden feather tube that was almost inversely proportional to the color concentration of the feather, and her eyes lit up: "Teacher, the cultivation of this Cangyan Jinpeng seems to be around eight hundred years, maybe I can..."
"No, light snow." As soon as Wei Ming heard Qian Lingxue's estimate, he immediately vetoed it, and said solemnly: "The limit period of the soul master's second soul ring is 764 years, and if it exceeds one or two years, it's fine, but the gap is more than 10 years, so it can't be ignored!" ”
Qian Lingxue hesitated, glanced at the vermilion peace knot tied on her right wrist, pursed her lips, decided to follow her instincts, looked at Wei Ming, and said seriously: "But I think I can bear a soul ring of about eight hundred years." ”
When Wei Ming heard this, he suddenly felt a headache, and hated iron and steel: "Is what I just said a deaf ear?" The second cultivation period of an ordinary soul master must not exceed 764 years! What's more, you are still the young master of the Martial Spirit Palace, if you have anything to do, I will have no shame to face your grandfather and your father! ”
Qian Lingxue's expression was firm: "You also said that you are an ordinary soul master." But I am the owner of the Seraphim Martial Soul, and I have inherited the divine angel bloodline. Since ancient times, there have also been adventures on the continent After experiencing the adventure assessment, the first soul ring was directly upgraded from a hundred-year level to a thousand-year-level genius, and he died before he exploded. Can they do it, and I can't overcome the gap in cultivation for more than forty years? ”
"But!"
"Teacher!" Qian Ling Xue calmly interrupted Wei Ming and continued, "If I am still a soul master, not a soul master, then I will definitely not choose a soul beast that has cultivated beyond a few decades. But now that I am a Great Soul Master, coupled with the physique training since I was 5 years old and the physique tempered by the Heavenly Treasure Liquid that I have been soaking in since I was a child, I think that I can now withstand the second soul ring for 800 years. ”
The two soul saints in the rear, you look at me, I look at you, don't dare to say anything.
Soul Saint, but Templar.
There is a difference between status and inferiority, which is an obstacle that no matter how strong the soul power is, it cannot be overcome.
Wei Ming looked at Qian Ling Xue fixedly, and said in a deep voice: "If there is an accident on the way to absorb the soul ring, aren't you afraid?" Even if you fail, don't regret suffering an incurable wound? ”
"No fear, no regrets."
Wei Ming closed his eyes, and after a few seconds, he opened them again and said, "Since you have made up your mind, then do it." ”
Qianrenxue's eyes lit up, "Thank you, teacher." ”
"No, this is your second soul ring. Success is more up to you. After speaking, Wei Ming looked at the two Templars, the three of them exchanged a look in mid-air, and the two Soul Saints nodded.
......
The sun hanging high in the sky faded its bright face, sank into the chaotic canyon, and disappeared into the horizon.
The temperature on the ground changes with the departure of the sun, showing extreme temperature differences that are very different from those of the day.
After a day of hard hunting, Cangyan Jinpeng, who wanted to return to the nest to rest, slowly flew close to his lair.
Cangyan Jinpeng has a graceful white-gold body, with a wingspan of up to six meters wide, and sporadic sparks when the wings are flapped.
If you look closely, you will find that not only the wings, but also the feathers on the body are burning with golden sparks, and at a glance it looks like a flaming gauze coat.
