Chapter 22: Falling into Quicksand
West Niu Hezhou, Wolong Cave. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Autumn morning, sunny and shining. The golden sunlight shines into the cave through the glazed skylight on the roof of the cave, reflecting the golden light of a small mountain of fine copper.
Chen Xian stood in front of the pile of refined copper, and the golden light reflected on his feminine and handsome face, which actually added a touch of heroism, and he looked less girly. He picked up a fist-sized piece of refined copper and weighed it, weighing about four or five catties, the mass of the refined copper of the Heart Dao was indeed ten times larger than that of ordinary bronze, so big, it actually weighed four or five catties.
After putting down this piece of refined copper, Chen Xian took out a three-meter-high black iron furnace painted with gossip patterns from the heavenly prison ring, and after removing the furnace lid, he loaded more than 1,000 catties of refined copper into it. After closing the lid of the furnace, he put his right hand on the wall of the furnace, and the true qi came out of his body and poured into it continuously. A purple fire burst out of the place and rose in the furnace, calcining the refined copper within.
After all the refined copper melted into juice, Chen Xian increased the input of true qi, and the purple flame immediately became much hotter. He put his left hand on the Xun position again, and after inputting some true qi, a gust of wind came out of the furnace. The so-called fire borrows the wind, the wind helps the fire, as the wind arises in the furnace, the fire in the furnace becomes more hot, the tongue of fire swallows, **** the refined copper juice.
After such a night of calcination, the refined copper juice in the furnace shrank a hundredfold, and only a puddle of purple liquid the size of a fist was suspended in the furnace.
Slowly reducing the output of true qi, the temperature in the furnace slowly dropped, and the purple liquid condensed into a ball the size of a ping-pong ball.
Chen Xian beckoned, and the lid of the Bagua Furnace flew up and fell gently to the ground, and the purple ball in it automatically flew out and fell into his hand.
"It's not easy to refine only such a little imperial copper from thousands of catties of refined copper!" Looking at the copper ball in his hand, Chen Xian couldn't help but sigh: what is condensed is the essence, and such a large piece of imperial copper weighs ten catties!
After taking out the spirit stone and returning to full of true qi, Chen Xian continued to refine the imperial copper.
For more than ten days after that, the Wolong Cave was always full of fire, and the heat wave hit people. It wasn't until there were twenty purple balls the size of ping-pong balls in front of Chen Xian that the fire in the Wolong Cave was completely extinguished.
"Whew...... I'm finally finished refining, I'm tired to death, so I'll rest for two days first, and when I'm in a good state, I can refine my natal magic weapon. After putting the twenty bronze balls into the Heavenly Prison Ring, Chen Xian went to the jade bed and closed his eyes and pretended to sleep.
Two days later, when the sun had just climbed the horizon, Chen Xian, who was sitting on the jade bed and cultivating, suddenly opened his eyes, and his blood-red eyes turned into the black and white color of a normal person after a flash of light.
"The sun is rising, the sun is rising, and it is the time to open the furnace and refine the treasure. Chen Xian looked at the rising sun in the eastern sky, thinking that it was time to refine the natal magic weapon.
Quickly coming to the black iron furnace, Chen Xian first injected some true qi into his position, and the purple flame rose and heated the iron furnace. Only after the furnace was dark did he open the lid and throw a pair of fangs into the furnace to burn.
First, the fire is simmered for a while, and after the fangs melt into liquid, change to simmer and smelt slowly. It was not until the impurities were discharged and burned into fly ash that Chen Xian took out meteoric iron, Taiyi pure gold, imperial copper and other materials one by one and put them into the furnace to concoct them in the same way.
Looking at the pools of liquid of different colors and sizes suspended in the black iron furnace, Chen Xian carefully fused them into a ball.
After several masses of liquid were mixed together, Chen Xian continued to wrap them in a simmer, calcined them for another hour, and after they were fully fused, he used his mind to shape them into a long sword with a blade length of three feet and three inches and three points, a thickness of one point, and a handle length of three inches, with a dragon pattern painted on it.
Before the sword body was solidified, Chen Xian's hands moved together, forming a series of handprints, turning into runes and falling on the sword body, turning into tadpole-shaped patterns and engraved on the sword.
When thirty-six patterns were condensed on the sword's body, Chen Xian stopped the action of sealing. Using his mind to control the long sword to fly out of the iron furnace, Chen Xian's right hand clenched into a fist, and slammed into his heart, and a stream of blood blurted out and sprayed onto the steaming sword.
"Whew-"
The cold snake blood spurted onto the hot sword, and immediately let out a snort, and a puff of blood mist rose in the air.
Chen Xian hurriedly used his true qi to restrain the scattered blood mist, suppressed it around the long sword, and slowly merged into the sword body.
When the blood mist cleared and the sword body cooled down, it had turned from pure purple when it was first baked to dark red.
Chen Xian stretched out his hand to hold the hilt of the sword, and a feeling of blood connection came from the bottom of his heart, and his handsome face like a woman couldn't help but reveal a maternal light, and he couldn't help but gently stroke the sword body.
After gently stroking his natal magic weapon for a while, Chen Xian thought to himself that he should give it a nice name, this name must be wildly dragged by Cooljack, it must be distinctive, and it must have the feelings of loving the motherland and the people in it, and it must not be as casual as naming the Black Eagle last time, as if naming a pet.
After thinking about it for a long time, Chen Xian had to admit that he---he had the talent to choose names at all, and he didn't know how to name his children in the future. He wondered if he should start thinking about it now, take a dozen or so spare them first, and then think about it when it was not enough.
"It's too flamboyant, it's not good. Zhu Xian? Cut, no, there must be a limit to piracy! Chixiao, Ziying, and Heavenly Evil...... It's so uncreative. Chen Xian sighed, holding the long sword, looking like he couldn't think about it and couldn't get satisfied.
Chen Xian looked at the long sword in his arms that was like a glass cast, and said apologetically: "Sword, sword, it's really hard for you to follow me, I can't even give you a name, I'm really sorry for you!"
The long sword trembled twice, as if to comfort Chen Xian.
Chen Xian touched his chin, thinking that it was worthy of being a natal magic weapon that could communicate with his master's mind, but the thirty-six layers of prohibition had just reached the magic weapon level, and he actually had such a high level of spirituality.
After touching his chin, Chen Xian's eyes suddenly lit up, and he secretly said, this sword is made of my teeth, so it's better to call it a dragon's tooth. The dragon's tooth not only reflects his patriotic feelings as the descendant of the dragon, but also expresses his wish to turn into a dragon, which is a rare good name!
"Dragon's Tooth, I'll call you Dragon's Tooth in the future. Chen Xian stroked the cold blade and said softly, a charming smile blooming on his handsome face.
The dragon tooth sword trembled twice, and two golden runes appeared on the hilt, Chen Xian looked down and couldn't help but be happy, the runes were actually "dragon teeth" two ancient demon clan characters,
Stroking the spiritual-pressing dragon tooth sword, Chen Xian couldn't help frowning, thinking that he always felt that something was missing, and he felt a little unfinished.
Looking at the dark red blade, Chen Xian couldn't help but smile, no wonder the secret dao felt that there was something shortcoming, it turned out that he was still close to refining a scabbard for the dragon's teeth.
Refining the scabbard does not need to be as troublesome as refining the dragon's teeth, Chen Xian took out the snakeskin that was shed during the transformation, cut off a section, used the real fire to refine the impurities in it, and made the scabbard, and added some red sand to it, dyeing the scabbard dark red, and after the ban was placed, the scabbard of the dragon's tooth sword was freshly baked.
Looking at the scabbard in front of him with twenty layers of prohibition, Chen Xian nodded with satisfaction, the twenty-layer forbidden magic weapon, as the scabbard of the dragon's tooth sword, was enough.
After inserting the dragon tooth sword into the scabbard, Chen Xian performed a water mirror technique, and saw that he was holding the dragon tooth sword and was so heroic that even his feminine face looked a lot more pleasing to the eye. He immediately decided that in the future, he would be a slut who never left his sword, so as not to be treated as a hypocrite and make people laugh.
Gu Fang admired himself for a while, Chen Xian withdrew the spell and began to ponder, the natal magic weapon has been refined, it is time to go out and see the world. However, before leaving, it is necessary to upgrade the Blue Sea Dragon Formation, at least to upgrade it to the third level, and have the power of being trapped in the Jindan monk. By the way, I told Black Eagle to stop causing trouble, take good care of the house, and don't wait for himself to come back, but the nest was served.
................................................
It is connected to the moraine in the east, to Zhufan in the west, to Hugo in the south, and to Tartary in the north. The trail is 800 miles away, and it is 10 million miles up and down. The water flow turns over like a mountain, the waves roll but like a mountain shrugging back, the ocean is vast, the desert is vast, and the flood is heard for ten miles......
After Chen Xian came out of Wolong Cave, he walked and stopped, and it took nearly a month to come to the bank of the quicksand river. Looking at the quicksand river in the sea of sand and the rolling yellow sand, I naturally remembered the description of the quicksand river in "Journey to the West".
Now there are still four or five hundred years before the monkeys make trouble in the Heavenly Palace, and the sand monk who accidentally broke the glass cup has not been punished to the lower realm, but the river is extinct, only the rolling yellow sand flows in the river, which reminds Chen Xian of the Yellow River in his previous life, and secretly said that when Wu Chengen wrote a novel, would the prototype of the quicksand river be the Yellow River?
Standing on the edge of the quicksand river, Chen Xian couldn't help frowning: his Wolong Cave is only 20,000 miles away from the Liusha River in the east, and only 30,000 miles away from the Wuzhuang Temple of Zhenyuanzi in the west, but it has become the only way to go to Lingshan after crossing the Liusha River. I don't know if Tang Seng will go to Wolong Cave to beat the white snake spirit after gathering the three declining apprentices?
After standing on the bank of the quicksand river and thinking for a while, Chen Xian took the dragon's tooth sword, set up the cloud technique, and turned into a white light and flew towards the other side of the river.
Chen Xian drove the clouds, and not long after flying over the quicksand river, a huge suction force came from the river, and the cloud soaring technique immediately lost control. He fell into the cloud with a "whoosh", plunged into the quicksand river, and sank to the bottom.
Wu Chengen, you are a big pit goods, when you wrote "Journey to the West", why did you only write "800 quicksand realms, 3,000 weak water depths." The goose feathers can't float, and the reed flowers sink at the bottom", and if you don't write about the quicksand, there will be a huge suction force in the river?
Chen Xian got up from the bottom of the river, and after pinching a water avoidance spell, he couldn't help but scold Wu Chengen for not being kind, such an important matter, you didn't even write it.
"It's still too weak to cultivate yourself, thinking about Guanyin, Hui'an, Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie, and Sha Monk, even if they fight on the quicksand river, they are not affected by this suction at all. Alas, 'goose feathers can't float, reed flowers sink at the bottom', in the face of this suction, I am at the same level as goose feathers and reed flowers, it's too shocking......" After sighing, Chen Xian moved his little short legs and walked towards the other side of the river step by step.
At the bottom of this quicksand river, Chen Xian finally knew why the river was named after quicksand, and the gravity here was a hundred times that of other places. When you are in the river, it is like falling into quicksand, so that you keep sinking, let alone flying, it is a little difficult to even run, Chen Xian wants to cross the river, so he can only rely on himself to walk over step by step.
The quicksand river is three points of water, seven points of sand, the bottom of the river is pitch black, there is no light, Chen Xian's pair of snake eyes that can see thirty miles during the day and twenty miles at night, but here can only see four meters around the body. There is no other reason, there is too much sand, dense turns, four meters away, what you see is a wall. In desperation, he could only keep releasing his divine sense to explore the way, and his divine consciousness was also greatly suppressed here, and the divine consciousness that could originally cover a radius of ten miles could only cover a radius of three miles when he arrived here.
I don't know how long I walked at the bottom of the quicksand river, and the divine sense released by Chen Xian suddenly detected a strange aura......
