Chapter 4: Molting and hibernating
Qingluo didn't dare to stay here for long, and hurriedly climbed back into the cave in the tree. This danger is also to blame for his carelessness, and he let down his guard after being comfortable here for more than ten days. I didn't even find the white crane by the stream in advance, and I didn't suddenly realize it until I was about to fight hard.
It seems that no matter where you go in the future, you must stay vigilant, after all, there are dangers in this flood!
However, this time it was also a thrill. Qingluo seized the opportunity with the experience of being a person in his previous life, had the courage to fight, and fought for a glimmer of life. And he also discovered that his mana can heal his wounds. Although it is not aggressive, it is very useful in healing and escaping.
After this battle, Qingluo cultivated more seriously. After half a year of penance and the combination of spiritual fruits, he finally reached the early stage of the Earth Immortal.
A trace of innate aura enters the spiritual platform, pulling the heart to condense the true spirit.
The original god imprint raw mud palace can be a non-mundane thing from now on!
At this time, in the desolate world, the innate aura is still rich, as long as there are spirit creatures absorbing a trace of innate aura, there will be a qualitative change.
This trace of innate aura is qualitatively different from acquired aura, and a trace of innate aura is worth a hundred years of penance in the acquired aura.
It's like a demon beast in later generations who has been cultivating for more than a hundred years, and many of the mana transformed by the acquired aura in its body can be compared to the mana transformed by this trace of innate aura.
Although the power of the earth immortals cannot be shown in the flood at this time, after the innate aura disappears, in the era of acquired aura, the suppression of the laws of heaven and earth will be much smaller, and with the improvement of the law, many spells in the earth immortal period will slowly appear, so the earth immortals in later generations will have many wonderful techniques.
Qingluo confirmed that the basis for reaching this state was the feeling in the dark. This feeling is so mysterious that it cannot be expressed in words.
He thought, this may be the feeling of the Tao. It may be precisely because of the gradual perfection of the Heavenly Dao of the Desolation that this kind of thought can be sensed.
Within seven inches of Qingluo, because he entered the early stage of the Earth Immortal, he produced an inner pill. He also understood why the snake's Achilles' heel was seven inches, because the human dantian was seven inches for them. Not only is there a lot of cultivation here, but the physical defense here is also much weaker than other places.
Even if it is an ordinary snake, seven inches is also the place where its heart is stored, once the heart is broken, no matter how tenacious its vitality is, it will not survive. That's why later generations have the saying: "If you hit a snake, you have to hit seven inches!"
However, despite the weaknesses, there are also benefits. Qingluo can control Neidan to launch out of his mouth in an instant, and only the impact and mana it carries at will can directly pierce through a boulder that is hundreds of thousands of years old at will.
But this also made Qingluo excited, if he met that white crane again at this time, he would definitely be able to kill it with one move.
You must know that at this time, any ancient stone in the flood wilderness is a rare treasure in the future generations, if it is broken by the people of later generations, it will take a lot of effort even for the high-level qi practitioners of the Immortal Dao.
At this time, under the suppression of heaven and earth, he is not aggressive in his temptation, and it is not bad to have this result.
But what he didn't know was that when his cultivation Yuan Shen was condensed, in the chaos thirty-three days away, in the Wa Palace, Nuwa suddenly felt it.
With a wave of her hand, a tortoise shell appeared in front of her, and she said with a slight solemnity: "Qingxuan is reborn, and I ask Daoyou to take care of it!"
On the tortoise shell, the spirit pattern flashed, and an old voice came out: "Rest assured, the old man is naturally dedicated." ”
。。。。。。
And now Qingluo is extremely uncomfortable, because at this moment he is itching all over his body, and he is almost torturing him crazy.
His snake body was tightly wrapping around several branches of the fruit tree, grinding against the branches to relieve the itching sensation on his body.
He had been tickling from time to time this morning, and he thought it was because he hadn't taken a shower for a long time. At this moment, he remembered that snakes need to molt. It turns out that the feeling of a snake molting is like this, and it is really worse than death.
Qingluo's head kept hitting the branch, rubbing the uneven branch with the jaw of his mouth, and rubbing his whole body tightly against the branch.
With each impact, Qingluo felt pain, but the itching sensation in his body was also stopped and relieved.
He used all his strength to resist the thick branches, rubbing them constantly. He also shook off a lot of the yellow leaves on the trees.
After nearly half an hour, Qingluo finally felt a softness all over his body, the pain disappeared, and his body felt like he was being restrained in a layer of soft flesh, so he hurriedly used all his strength to drill into his head.
Soon, his head burst out of the old skin, then the body, and gradually the tail came out.
At this point, the molt is complete. Qingluo was like a dead fish, and all his strength was squeezed dry.
He lay motionless on the trunk of the tree. After resting for a while, I had some strength. He looked at his elongated body and thought to himself that this sin was not in vain.
At this time, Qingluo's body was already about two meters long, looking at it as an adult green snake, the cyan on his body was delicate and colorful.
Moreover, he also felt that his strength had increased a lot, especially the winding force. His winding power is now no problem for hanging some giant beasts, but due to the length of his body, he can't show it yet. Counting his repair power and Neidan's shooting power, ordinary beasts are no longer enough to fear, although there are not so many real ordinary creatures in the flood at this time!
Qingluo knew that his strength was not even a drop in the bucket in this desolate world. Only the position of Da Luo Jin Immortal can be regarded as the master of one party, and those who can truly be called powerful are probably only those quasi-saints who have already beheaded a corpse!
Qingluo shook his head, leaving those distant things behind.
As a fan of Flood Fiction, Qingluo knows that there are many evil arts that can destroy the enemy's god form with a single hair. His snakeskin can be said to have a lot to do with him, and it would be bad if it fell into the hands of someone else in the future.
Qingluo used the demon pill to summon a trace of mana, condensed into a trace of flame, and landed on the snake's skin and ignited instantly!
His snake skin turned into a black ash and scattered with the wind!
Qingluo returned to the empty tree hole and sighed, he had eaten all those green fruits in the past six months, and he had no food to eat.
That's right, even though he has achieved the Earth Immortal, he still needs to eat! Because the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi that his Earth Immortal cultivation has ingested is only used for cultivation, and as for supplementing his body functions, it will undoubtedly slow down his cultivation speed! All of them he would rather use food to supplement his body's consumption than use the meager mana in his body to supplement his consumption.
Fortunately, he searched all the trees within a few hundred meters of the vicinity, and found some fruit that was about to rot, and he barely satisfied his hunger.
Seeing that the grass and trees around here had turned yellow, he remembered that winter was coming. He also felt like he was about to hibernate because he felt his body getting heavier and heavier these days as the temperature dropped. Although he has mana, in this deified legendary desolate world, the suppression of heaven and earth is so powerful, he has not yet transformed into a form, and naturally has some snake nature.
At this time, the power of the Heaven and Earth Meteorology of the Flood Desolation was extremely powerful, and even the Earth Immortals could not resist the power of some huge Heaven and Earth Meteorology!
In fact, it is because he doesn't feel hungry when he falls asleep, so he doesn't have to worry about running out of food. Qingluo thought to himself, if it is useless to cultivate if being a vegetarian and not killing, it will be a big loss to be a vegetarian!
But the most important thing is that the powerful bloodlines of some heaven and earth creatures can rely on the sleepiness of tired hibernation to cultivate! Most of these creatures are powerful beings in a race, and their memories and habits will naturally be imitated and passed on by countless descendants!
Therefore, the hibernation of the ten thousand snakes in later generations is inherited from the ancient ancestral memory, and he can be regarded as the ancestor of the snake clan in later generations!
After complaining, he began to act for hibernation again. Qingluo first searched for trees and grasses within two or three hundred meters of the vicinity, found dozens of wild fruits and brought them back to the cave.
Then I found some soft and comfortable, relatively warm withered yellow cattail grass and brought it back to the tree hole and spread it inside. In the end, Qingluo found another brown stone, bit it in his mouth, climbed the tree with difficulty and put it on the trunk.
By the time he was done, it had been more than half a month since he molted, and the weather had become much colder, and a cold wind was blowing.
Qingluo's mind was already a little groggy, and he knew that the time for hibernation was coming.
So after drinking enough water by the stream that was about to break down, Qingluo climbed back into the tree hole. Then he released his mana, and a blue light entangled the stone and slammed into the hole, and with a bang, the stone was just stuck in the hole of the tree.
Seeing this, Qingluo nodded with satisfaction. In this way, blocking the tree hole can not only keep out the wind and rain, but also cover the hole. This stone, which he deliberately looked for, was about the same color as the trunk of the tree, and it was not easy to find the hole from the outside.
Qingluo found that after entering the early stage of the Earth Immortal, the mana could not only wrap around the body to heal injuries, but also release it outside the body.
Not only can it change shapes, but it also has some attack power, although the attack power is not too big, but it is very useful for Qingluo.
After blocking the entrance to the cave, he ate eight or nine fruits in one go, and his body was raised with a few small packets. He slept for months, and if he had no food in his body, he would probably starve to death. Although there were only three fruits left in the hollow of the tree after he ate them, he still had to do the same.
After eating, Qingluo lay down on the thick pile of grass, his body coiled up, and then closed his eyes and began to hibernate peacefully.
The mountains in this desolate land are gradually covered with snow, and the branches and plants are also dyed white. There was goose feather snow in the sky, and the cold wind was howling. Except for the wind and snow, this mountain is silent.
And Qingluo in the tree hole is sleeping unconsciously. He was in this small tree hole, coiled in a pile of withered yellow cattail grass, and the wind and snow outside the tree could not enter this tree hole.
The snow fell like this for two months, and white became the main color of the mountain for two months. But after another month, the snow began to melt, and the broken stream began to flow again, and the snow on the branches disappeared in favor of new green leaves.
Spring has come around this mountain. In the wilderness, not all places have four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter, and those caves where people with great mana live, the changes of the four seasons throughout the year depend on the hobbies of the owner of the cave.
There are also some special terrain places that do not change with the four seasons. For example, some Gengjin Land, Wood Spirit Land, Volcanic Land, etc., are all single heaven and earth climates, and there is no change.
And the green fall in the tree hole was gradually awakened from hibernation by the hunger in the stomach.
