Chapter Eighty-Six: Going Crazy (I)
Xuan Jizi had already planned to leave first, and then come in to collect these flames when he was fully prepared, but when he turned around, he was stunned on the spot. The hole that was supposed to be behind him disappeared.
A sense of uneasiness rose in Xuan Jizi's heart, and he hurriedly stepped forward to check, but unfortunately there was only three flavors of true fire left, and it was difficult to check even if he wanted to.
Xuanjizi hurriedly searched around, hoping to find an exit, but unfortunately he was destined to be disappointed, there was nothing left here except the Three Flavors True Fire.
Seeing that the magic weapon of the water attribute had turned red all over his body, the surrounding heat wave swept mercilessly again, engulfing Xuanjizi and putting him in a sea of fire and hell, and an unprecedented sense of despair rose in his heart.
He understood that he seemed to have entered a trap, unless he came in and went out immediately after entering as before, the exit in and out would disappear, and the people inside would definitely not be able to get out of here alive unless they had a special constitution or magic weapon to resist the three-flavor true fire and the red fire mist.
However, although he was in danger, after all, Xuan Jizi had been cultivating for hundreds of years, and he had been in a high position for a long time, so he immediately calmed down and began to analyze the current situation, while looking at the magic weapons that could be used in the space ring, but soon he found that he couldn't last long just by relying on the things in the space ring, and he could only last two days at most, if he couldn't escape in this time, he would have to explain here.
After discovering this, he didn't dare to delay, and immediately took out two earth-level magic weapons again, both of which were earth-attributed, ice-attributed and water-attribute treasures were not powerful, so few people refined them, and even he only had two, and now he could only use the most powerful earth-level magic weapon for protection.
It's a pity that the earth attribute can play little role in this environment, the surrounding heat wave is almost not much isolated, Xuanjizi's body is full of light, although the heat wave is barely isolated, the physical body has not been damaged, but the true element in the body is passing rapidly, and he feels a sense of emptiness in just a few breaths.
Xuanjizi searched the original entrance, and after finding nothing, he turned around and flew into the depths, hoping to find an exit inside.
In fact, this space is very large, Xuanjizi has been wandering near the entrance, there are still many holes on the cave wall a thousand meters opposite him, but these holes are flickering, some of the holes last longer, and some are just fleeting and erratic. Xuanjizi also understood that the hole he entered was estimated to be the same as the one on the other side.
The more he flew in, the higher the temperature around him, Xuan Jizi had to swallow five more elixirs to replenish the true yuan in his body, a bottle of elixir was about to be consumed, but now he didn't have time to feel sorry for these, these elixirs were good, but they were still not worth mentioning compared to his own life. As long as he stays for his life, it will be easy for him to get these elixirs again.
When he flew to the general distance, the temperature around him had reached the highest, he subconsciously looked down, and found that there was a sea of fire below, and the color of the flame turned out to be blue-black, and the flame in the middle was even about to turn black, it was a three-flavor true fire with excellent purity, and any flame was much better than those three-flavor true fires he collected.
Xuanjizi couldn't help but stop his body, these flames couldn't be seen at the entrance, and he also understood in his heart why the temperature was higher the further inside.
At this time, the earth attribute magic weapon that Xuanjizi used to protect was also impregnated with fire poison and turned into a pile of scrap iron, without the protection of the magic weapon, Xuanjizi only felt that he was suddenly in a flaming hell, his skin had been cracked, and his hair was directly vaporized, making him instantly become a bald head.
Xuanjizi took out two magic weapons again, which are also earth-level magic weapons, I have to say that Kunlun, as the head of the top sect, has an extraordinary heritage, just the few magic weapons he took out, any opinions will make all the cultivators snatch the scalp, some small sects can even be used as the treasure of the town faction, but Xuanjizi took it out without pity, and threw it away if it was scrapped.
Xuan Jizi understands that he will really be in danger if he drags it out any longer, but the flames below are really attractive, those flames are no worse than Lingbao, as long as they get it, Kunlun's overall strength will be improved again, and there will be no enemy who can threaten Kunlun at that time.
After much deliberation, greed finally prevailed over reason, and he was determined to take a risk.
He slowly tried to descend, but after only descending ten meters, the two magic weapons could not be used, so he could only take out two again to guard.
Those flames were still a hundred meters away from him, and at this speed, when he landed above the flames, it would cost at least twenty earth-level magic weapons, which was not a small property for any sect, even if Xuanjizi was the head of the Kunlun Sect, he didn't have so many magic weapons.
Xuanjizi used up two ground-level magic weapons when he landed to five meters this time, and there were more and more heatwaves through protection, and Xuanjizi's body was also suffering, and it was this short fifteen meters that made him use up a bottle of elixir, which was all ground-level elixir, and there were twenty grains in one bottle, which were usually life-saving, but now they were swallowed by Xuanjizi like fried beans.
Xuan Jizi understood that the earth-level magic weapon had no effect, but the flames below were like peerless beauties dancing, making him unable to take his eyes off, and finally he gritted his teeth and took out an item from the space ring.
It is a copper drum, the copper drum itself is not big, only one meter in diameter, but it is densely filled with various symbols, these symbols are exuding dazzling gold, constantly wandering on the surface of the drum body, forming a mysterious formation, each formation seems to be independent, but tightly interlocked, one ring after another, this copper drum is a Xuanjie spiritual treasure, is the treasure of Xuanjizi, unless it is a moment of life and death, it will never be taken out, but the flames below really make him greedy, and finally gritted his teeth and took out this copper drum that is usually regarded as a treasure。
As soon as the copper drum appeared, a powerful aura emanated, and all the formations engraved on the surface flew away, surrounding the Xuanjizi, and a huge copper drum phantom appeared around him, isolating the heat wave completely, and a faint golden light appeared on the surface of the copper drum, making those red mist unable to cross the thunder pool one step.
Xuanjizi finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this, and the corners of his mouth turned up, but this smile that usually seemed unfathomable looked abnormal at the moment.
Xuanjizi slowly sank, when he sank fifty meters, the golden light on the surface of the copper drum skyrocketed again, and it was able to reach the level of Lingbao, this copper drum also had a certain spiritual sense, and felt the unbearable temperature around him, and the copper drum made a knocking sound, which seemed to be expressing dissatisfaction with Xuanjizi, and urging him to leave here.
Hearing the sound of the drum, Xuan Jizi immediately understood that the copper drum was close to the limit, but it was still less than thirty meters away from below to get those flames, and he was really unwilling to give up now. So he ignored the sound of the drum and urged it to fall downwards again.
After descending twenty meters, the golden light emitted from the copper drum reached an unprecedented level, and a slight crack appeared on the surface of the phantom that protected Xuanjizi, and a powerful heat wave entered through the crack like a hair, and Xuanjizi immediately felt a suffocation again.
Xuanjizi understands that this is already the limit of the copper drum, and it is likely that this spiritual treasure will be scrapped when it is lowered, but it is close to the goal, and now it is obviously a fool to give up, he simply let it go, even if he doesn't want to fight this spiritual treasure today, he must get the flame, with those flames, it is much easier to refine this spiritual treasure.
Finally came to the top of the flames, not only the phantom around Xuanjizi, but even the surface of the copper drum began to turn red, cracks appeared from it, and a dull drum sound continued to emit out, as if playing the music of death.
Xuan Jizi's face was already flushed with excitement, and he took out a jade box from the space ring again, unlike the previous jade bottle, this jade box is also a Xuan-level spirit treasure, which is also used to collect special treasures, and the speed of collection is naturally much faster than that of the jade bottle.
Xuanjizi threw out the jade box, and the lid of the jade box, which was originally tightly closed, slid down, and it was pitch black inside, as Xuanjizi continued to play the trick, one rune after another melted into the darkness, and a powerful suction force came out of it, and the three-flavor true fire under his feet was slowly inhaled.
The speed at which the flames were inhaled became faster and faster, and finally a flame tornado was formed, with a pitch-black void connected to it, and there was an almost black three-flavor true fire being continuously inhaled below, and as the flames were sucked into the jade box, the surrounding temperature was slowly weakening.
Xuan Jizi's heart was full of excitement, he had been practicing for hundreds of years, and he didn't remember when he was so excited, it is estimated that he was in this mood when he was elected as the head of Kunlun.
Although the jade box is specially used to absorb this special treasure, but the flame is too domineering after all, even if the jade box is a spiritual treasure, it can't withstand so many flames, the original jade surface is slowly turning cyan, and the color is getting darker and darker, and the jade box itself is also constantly clarifying, but unfortunately Xuan Jizi is so unconscious, a pair of eyes are staring at the slowly smaller flames below, but his originally dark pupils are slowly turning cyan, and imperceptible madness flashes in the depths of his eyes.
Xuan Jizi didn't know that these flames below were high-purity three-flavor true fire, and it was not wrong to use them to refine the weapon to greatly improve the quality of treasures, but he didn't know that the person who arranged these back then secretly did something to put some magic fire in the three-flavor true fire.
The so-called demonic fire is a kind of flame with the same nature as the three-flavor true fire, but once this flame comes into contact, it will make the cultivator fall into madness, even if the Dao heart is solid, as long as he is stained with the demonic fire a little, it will let him go and fall into the demon, even if he survives, there is no hope of crossing the tribulation.
Originally, the color of the magic fire was black, but the color of the high-purity three-flavor true fire was indeed blue-black, so it would not be very conspicuous when put inside, so it could not be detected by Xuanjizi.
Long ago, when he came to the top of the flame and began to use the jade box to collect the three-flavor true fire, the demon fire was inhaled, and the jade box was refined by Xuanjizi after all, and there was his soul imprint on it, so the demon fire directly acted on his Yuan Shen through the soul imprint, allowing him to slowly embark on the road of no return.
