On this day, the sun was shining and the surroundings were quiet and peaceful, it was noon, Xue Lingfeng was sweating profusely after practicing the sword as usual, sitting alone under an ancient pine tree to enjoy the coolness, occasionally a cool breeze came, very comfortable and happy.

He didn't care about wiping the sweat off his face, took a few pine leaves in his mouth, looked up at the white clouds in the sky, and got up leisurely.

At this time, Qin Xianglan quietly came out from the side, put her hands into claws in front of him and made a grimace and said, "Wow! Senior brother, you really work hard to practice swords, look at you sweating profusely!"

As he spoke, he raised his hand with a playful smile and wiped the sweat beads on his face with his sleeve, and combed his somewhat disheveled hair.

Xue Lingfeng was taken aback by her, sat up and looked at Qin Xianglan, and asked with a puzzled expression, "Senior Sister Lan, don't you need to practice swords?"

Qin Xianglan hid her face and snickered and said, "Hmm...... That, I've already finished practicing, I'm your senior sister, so I'm naturally faster than you!"

Xue Lingfeng said 'um', with a naïve look on his face, he really believed it, and when he raised his head, he was about to fall asleep and continue to enjoy the cool breeze.

Qin Xianglan hurriedly grabbed his arm and said, "Senior brother, it's really annoying to practice the sword all day, why don't we go out to play, it's big and comfortable outside, and there are a lot of things to look at and play!"

Xue Lingfeng glanced at her angrily and said, "I'm not going, let the master know that we are lazy, and we will be punished again! My ass still hurts, it's good for you, anyway, the master won't beat you!"

Qin Xianglan chuckled a few times and said, "Don't be afraid, I've already investigated, the master is not here, I think there is something that can't control us for a while, don't worry, I guarantee that your ass is okay this time!"

As she spoke, she dragged Xue Lingfeng up and left, Xue Lingfeng kept struggling and screaming, but she was forced to drag and drag all the way to the back peak of Lingyun Peak.

The two of them relied on their small bodies, and under the cover of the bushes, they quietly slipped around the guards.

In fact, the guards here are just acting according to the procedure, no one in the Heavenly Sword Sect has dared to violate it in the past few hundred years, and the rules and discipline are strict, and all the disciples are abiding by the rules and discipline and are diligent in cultivation, no one will want to break through here at all, and the empty Lingyun Peak back peak can't even see a single figure.

The two of them ran happily all the way for a while, and they didn't stop until they turned around and couldn't see the roof on Lingyun Peak, and Xue Lingfeng didn't forget to ask, "Senior Sister Lan, why don't you call Senior Brother Extraordinary to come and play together?"

Qin Xianglan pouted and replied, "That nasty ghost, don't play with him...... Hey, junior brother, you see, there are so many flowers there, let's go pick flowers!"

Xue Lingfeng raised his eyes and saw a pool of clear water not far ahead, sparkling in the sun, and the flowers were growing on the edge of the pool, and they were also shining in the sun, which was extremely beautiful.

The two of them ran over, and saw that this was not an ordinary flower, but it was all an ice flower made of ice crystals, the petals were thick but there were no stamens, the whole body was pure white, crystal clear, and it was faintly visible that there were thin lines of water flowing in the petals.

These ice flowers are clustered on the edge of the waterhole, and they can condense the form of flowers, leaves, and branches, which is both magical and beautiful, and makes people feel incredible.

This waterhole is roughly an oval, about ten meters in diameter, there are no other plants on the side except those ice flowers, there is not even a single weed, the water surface is bubbling with a trace of white gas, as soon as it is close to the edge of the pool, it feels cold, the pool water is clear and transparent but you can't see the bottom, and you don't know how deep.

Qin Xianglan stretched out her hand and paddled into the water, immediately retracted, and exclaimed in surprise: "Senior brother, this water is so cold, my hands are about to freeze, help me cover it!"

Xue Lingfeng touched her hand, and sure enough, it was cold and biting, and he hurriedly put her entire palm into the squeaky nest to cover it, thought about it and said: "The third uncle said that there is a pool in the mountain behind our Lingyun Peak called 'Forget Worries and Cold Pool', even in the hottest weather, the water in it is cold to the bone, but it will not freeze!

Qin Xianglan glanced at him after hearing this, and snorted coldly: "Hmph, the third uncle is really eccentric, so he is the best for you!"

After finishing speaking, he scratched Xue Lingfeng's squeaky nest a few times, then giggled and ran forward, so anxious that Xue Lingfeng desperately chased after him.

The scenery of this back peak is beautiful and the environment is quiet, there are no rules and constraints on Lingyun Peak, the two children are playful by nature, they feel fresh and curious when they see anything, and they have long forgotten what punishment.

Along the way, this touch, that touch, unconsciously has walked away from Lingyun Peak for a long distance, only to hear the deafening sound in front, a waterfall from the high peak straight down, like a jade belt hanging in the air, reflecting a rainbow across the mountainside, beautiful!

The two of them were surprised on their faces, and ran up, seeing that the waterfall poured straight down from the peak of thousands of meters high, although the water flow was not tightly twisted, and it was dispersed to form a water curtain more than ten meters wide, still with the majestic momentum of thunder, when it reached the ground, the water splashed and the jade was scattered, and it hit a huge roar, even if it was talking loudly next to it, it was difficult to hear what the other party was saying.

After the two children laughed and played, they faintly saw a cave on the mountainside behind the waterfall, only about fifteen or sixteen meters high from the ground, and there were several thick vines hanging down from the entrance of the cave, growing green leaves.

The entrance of the cave was about ten meters high, about fifteen or sixteen meters wide, and the top of the cave had verdant vines hanging down densely, and the emerald green leaves covered the entire cave entrance.

When I entered the cave, I saw that this was a naturally formed cave, there was no trace of human activity, and there were no footprints left by other animals, there was not even a single weed in it, and the walls of the cave were full of jagged and strange stones, and the ground had dry fine sand and ash, and the temperature around was extremely warm.

The further you went inside, the temperature got higher and darker, and there was a wave of heat gushing out from inside, with a foul smell. The two children trembled, but they still couldn't hold back their curiosity, and walked hand in hand.

I don't know how far I walked, but the huge roar of the waterfall behind me became weaker and weaker, and then the inside was much more open, and finally I came to the end of the cave.

The light here is dim, and the walls of the cave around are vaguely showing a strange dark red, and the deepest part of the cave is pitch black, and you can't see anything clearly, but you feel that there is a heat wave coming from there, and it is so smoked that people sweat outside.

Xue Lingfeng followed behind Qin Xianglan, raised his eyes to look around, and hurriedly pulled the corner of her clothes and whispered, "Senior sister, why don't we go out, I'll ...... I'm scared!"

Although Qin Xianglan was also scared in her heart, she still puffed up in a low voice: "No...... Don't be afraid, with senior sister, you're still not a man!"

As she spoke, she dragged Xue Lingfeng forward little by little, wanting to see what was in the innermost part of the cave, and the heat was gushing out from that place.

He had barely moved forward when suddenly, a heavy wheezing sound sounded in front of him, like a gust of wind, and the entire cave rumbled.

I heard a clattering crash, and then three fist-sized things flashed out of the darkness, like three burning flames, about five meters in front of them.

The surrounding light suddenly brightened, the temperature rose suddenly, and I saw a behemoth in front of me, tied by several thick iron chains, firmly fixed on the surrounding cave walls, and after a closer look, I found that these thick iron chains were deeply embedded in its flesh, and they were all worn through.

The behemoth looked like a bird, with a huge beak, two legs, two wings, and a brilliant fiery red feather, even its beak and skin were all dark red.

But how could there be such a huge bird, it stood up, it was about five or six meters high, and if its wings were spread, it would be bigger than this cave more than twenty meters wide.

The most peculiar thing is that it is covered in flames, and it itself will not be burned, and the three flame-like things at the beginning turned out to be its three eyes, growing on its face behind a huge beak.

The face resembles a human face, and the third eye grows on the forehead, and the whole appearance looks strange and scary, making people feel shocked and intimidated, and they don't know what kind of alien it is.

Xue Lingfeng and Qin Xianglan were so frightened that they trembled for a while, hugged each other tightly and only cared about screaming, they actually forgot to run away, the huge strange bird in front of them tilted its head and glanced at the two of them a few times, as if they were not interested in these two children, and actually slowly crawled down, and they were about to fall asleep again.

The two children were so frightened that they remembered to run away after calming down a little, and hurriedly turned around and ran out, but as soon as they turned around and took two steps, a roar suddenly sounded behind them, and the sound was as loud as thunder, and it shook their ears to the point that their ears were ringing.

The huge strange bird saw the short sword inserted in Xue Lingfeng's waist, as if this short sword evoked some kind of long-term memory, and suddenly became angry, and after howling, it opened its mouth and spewed out a huge fireball, which crossed the top of the two people's heads, and hit the cave wall with a bang, and the huge impact force directly made the entire cave shake, and the boulders on the top of the cave fell one after another.

Xue Lingfeng struggled to stabilize his body and ran out desperately, but he heard Qin Xianglan calling her junior brother all the way behind, and when she looked back, she saw that she was so shocked that she couldn't stand up on the ground, and the strange bird had already stretched its huge beak in front of her.

At the critical moment, I don't know where he got the courage, rushed over to block in front of Qin Xianglan, closed his eyes, pulled out the short sword on his waist and stabbed forward desperately.

At that moment, he felt that his body was light, and his whole body was about to be baked, and his body was so hot that it was about to explode, and then he heard a scream, and the heat in front of him suddenly decreased a lot.

He opened his eyes and saw that the huge eye on the strange bird's forehead was spurting blood out of it, but it was firmly trapped, and its beak and claws were almost impossible to touch them.

Enraged, it could only keep flapping its wings, spewing fireballs one after another from its mouth, and those thick iron chains that passed through its body, as if it had been cast by some kind of spell, could actually give birth to a trace of purple electricity on its own, hitting its body, the more it struggled, the thicker the electric rays it generated, but it didn't care about these electric rays at this time, and still struggled desperately, as if it had made up its mind to die to break free from these iron chains.

The sand and rocks around him were flying, the boulders were rolling down, the whole cave shook violently, and they were all unstable on their feet, Xue Lingfeng and Qin Xianglan only felt dizzy and their blood was surging, and they both fainted as soon as it was dark in front of them.

After the huge strange bird struggled and fluttered for a while, the whole cave was filled with smoke and dust, and the ground had been filled with falling boulders, and it still could not break free from the thick iron chains that bound it after all, but was smashed by the falling boulders and was scarred, looking at the dying I was afraid that it would not survive.

It raised its head with difficulty, hurriedly glanced at the cave that had trapped it for an unknown amount of time, and finally fixed its gaze on Xue Lingfeng and Qin Xianglan, as if after thinking for a while, it opened its mouth and spit out something the size of a small bowl, shining with dazzling golden light, and suddenly illuminated the entire cave.

This thing seemed to be composed of condensed gas mixed with liquid, and it was able to fly to Xue Lingfeng's side by itself, and suddenly got into his mouth, and immediately reflected his entire body in a golden color, and it slowly dissipated after a while.

The strange bird stared at all this closely, and finally exhausted all its strength, and slowly closed its eyes, leaving its last eyes full of anger and unwillingness, but also mixed with a trace of inexplicable joy.

After Qin Xianglan woke up, she felt dizzy and tight, her whole body was numb, as if she had been beaten hard, the cave was filled with the smell of mud and blood, but the previous rolling heat wave had all subsided, and the light in the entire cave seemed to be much brighter.

She tried to call her junior brother a few times but there was no response, so she slowly struggled to sit up, only to see that there was sand and stones everywhere, piled up in a mess, Xue Lingfeng was lying in the pile of rocks beside her, and the two thousand catties of boulders on them collided together to form an arch, which just protected herself and Xue Lingfeng.

Qin Xianglan hurriedly stepped forward to wake it up, and the two saw that the strange bird was dead, and several thick iron chains were still firmly holding its huge body. But he didn't have anything to do, but his mouth was very dry, and after a short rest, he retrieved his short sword and hurried out.

Out of the hole, the sun was already in the west, and the two walked unhurriedly towards Lingyun Peak, thinking that they were frightened, and they were not in the mood to play at the moment.

After walking for a while, Xue Lingfeng, who was lagging behind, suddenly shouted: "Senior sister, wait for me, I'm ...... I'm so hot!"

Qin Xianglan walked in front and replied nonchalantly: "Yes, it's really hot enough, that ...... Senior brother, you can't tell the master about today's incident, not even the senior brother!"

"No, senior sister...... I...... What's wrong with me?"

Qin Xianglan was trembling when she heard him speak, and when she turned around, she saw Xue Lingfeng sitting on the ground, sweating profusely, his clothes were soaked and clinging to his body, and he hurriedly walked back and stretched out his hand to probe his head, it was actually so hot!

Xue Lingfeng licked his lips and said breathlessly, "I'...... I don't know, sister, I'm so hot, I think...... I want to drink water!"

Qin Xianglan helped him up, but immediately sat down, but he couldn't stand steadily!

"Senior sister, I'm so hot, water...... I want to drink water."

Xue Lingfeng screamed vigorously and wanted to drink water, Qin Xianglan saw that he was very uncomfortable and screamed eagerly, so she had to return the short sword and carry him back with difficulty.

Although she is slightly older than Xue Lingfeng, but the girl's body is delicate and weak after all, she can only stop and go, in this short period of time, Xue Lingfeng has been so hot that she is dazed, but her mouth still keeps screaming hot, shouting to drink water, she has to pant and comfort while walking: "Senior brother, don't ...... Don't be afraid, let's go find water, and we'll ...... It's almost there. ”

Stumbling all the way, Xue Lingfeng was like a furnace, Qin Xianglan was also sweating profusely for a long time, and finally carried him to the edge of the Forget Worry Cold Pool, and after putting Xue Lingfeng down, he sat down on the ground with his butt and said breathlessly: "Senior brother, there is a ...... There's water, drink it!"

Xue Lingfeng had chapped lips at this time, and his eyes were almost unable to open, but his consciousness gradually cleared up a little, trembling his body, stuffing a lot of the crystal clear ice flowers on the edge of the cold pool into his mouth, and stretching his feet into the cold pool, which was extremely useful, so he carefully soaked his whole body into it.

Qin Xianglan panted and crawled over, stretched out her two fingers tentatively into the cold pool, and immediately shrank back, the pool water was still cold to the bone......! Aren't you cold? Come out quickly, don't freeze!"

Xue Lingfeng had already returned to normal, and there was a little smile on his face, and he stroked the water with his hand and said, "It's not cold, this water has somehow become hot, it's just right, it's comfortable! Senior sister, you can also come down and try it!"

Qin Xianglan hurriedly retreated, and said to herself with a puzzled face: "This water is obviously very cold!"

Xue Lingfeng soaked in the cold pool for a long time, until he felt that the water in the pool was starting to be cold, and he didn't crawl out of it, his body was the same as usual, there was nothing uncomfortable, and the child didn't think too much, so he dried his clothes, picked up the short sword and Qin Xianglan and went back to Lingyun Peak.

Two days later, Xue Lingfeng's body was hot again, just like a fire, under Chaoyangzi's questioning, Qin Xianglan trembled and told the story of Houfeng, in fact, even she didn't know if this had anything to do with the big monster bird, why she was so good.

Chaoyangzi listened to the thunder of five thunders, and after glancing at Xu Changfeng, he sat down directly, and after a long time, he couldn't help shaking his head and sighing: "Heaven's will, this is all heaven's will, and there is a certain number in the underworld! That 'Huoluan' is an ancient demon beast, and it has been forgotten for hundreds of years, how can it be ...... Its inner pill contains an incomparably hot true yuan power, even if we swallow it, we will definitely not be able to bear it, I am afraid that Ling Feng will ...... Hey, this is all fate, if Senior Brother Xue has knowledge, what kind of face do I, a senior brother, have to face him!"

The golden thing that burrowed into Xue Lingfeng's body was none other than the Inner Dan of the ancient demon beast Huoluan, which had been condensed in Huoluan's body for thousands of years, and had already had spirituality, and after entering his body, it was like a parasite finding a host, spreading all over his body's meridians, and trying to merge with his body.

This Huoluan's inner pill contains an incomparably hot huge True Yuan Force, which can be withstood by the human body, not to mention that Xue Lingfeng is only ten years old, fortunately, he ate the ice flower condensed into the cold water essence in the Forget Worry Cold Pool in time, and soaked it in the Cold Pool, before he pressed the True Yuan Force back, temporarily restraining the spirit, otherwise he was afraid that he would have already exploded and died!

It's just that he was incorporated into the body by the beast element at a young age, and whether it is a blessing or a curse depends on his personal creation!
