Chapter Ninety-Six: Burning the Sword

For the first time since Zhou Jiujian grew so big, he witnessed a dragon really appear in front of him.

Although the dragon may be a little different from what is described in many books, the boy can be sure that the behemoth in front of him is indeed a dragon.

It faced the boy and the woman, and then suddenly opened its mouth, revealing two rows of crocodile teeth, as well as the bones in the deep part of its mouth, and inhaled sharply.

"Hey......" Zhou Jiujian looked at its posture like this, and faintly felt a little bad, and when he looked back at Ji Hongjin, he saw that she had a smile that he couldn't guess.

What do you mean?

The next moment, there was no need for the teenager to guess any more, and the bone dragon in front of him had already given the answer.

This bone dragon is extremely large, in fact, all that emerges from the surface of this molten lake is its head that nearly dominates half of the molten lake and half of its body underneath, and its two five-fingered claws are soaked in the molten lava, looking like rotten dead wood.

Then, from its lower torso, a red light suddenly surged up at great speed, and it reached its mouth in an instant, and then spit out!

That is, in the blink of an eye when the boy turned his head, endless flames accompanied by molten slurry spewed towards him, and there was no way to avoid it.

This...... Is it the so-called dragon's breath?

The boy wasn't sure, the only thing he was sure of was probably ...... Yourself, you may be going to die.

However, I could only see the flames and molten slurry spewed out by the bone dragon, heading towards the boy, but at a distance of nearly two feet, the flame molten slurry seemed to have hit a barrier, passing by the boy's side and falling on the surrounding ground and walls, instantly making it a dark and scorching smell.

Zhou Jiujian watched this bone dragon spew out dragon breath, and it seemed to be on the verge of death, and then found that he was still safe and sound, and when he turned his head and looked at Ji Hongjin, she was still showing a faint smile.

The young man knew in his heart that the strange phenomenon that seemed to be like a barrier just now, and it must have been this woman's act to protect him from any harm.

In my heart, I couldn't help but be a little convinced of what she said before calling herself a "Sword Immortal".

After this bone dragon squirted a mouthful of dragon breath, when he looked at the two people in front of him again, he found that they were all right, a pair of eyes full of anger, and then opened his mouth, as if he wanted to make a dragon groan, but it could only do it, it was now only a bone left in its body, naturally, it was impossible to make a sound.

Ji Hongjin looked at the dragon silently, and said softly: "You little reptile, you have been locked up for a hundred years, and you haven't learned a long lesson?"

As the words fell, this huge bone dragon, its dragon head seemed to have been hit hard, and suddenly it was smashed and fell into the molten lake, making the entire molten lake agitated, and then a black light flashed, and one of the dragon's horns broke and fell into the molten lava. The bone dragon then made a fuss, as if it was extremely painful, but there was not the slightest sound to be heard during the whole process, only the sound of molten lava shaking and colliding like waves.

The jet-black light quickly burrowed back into Ji Hongjin's rather narrow sleeves, and then disappeared. I saw her quietly pacing forward gently, and then, all the movement here stopped.

The bone dragon, which was making noise in the molten slurry under its feet, slowly sank until it could no longer see any bones.

Zhou Jiujian saw the whole process in his eyes, turned his head, and looked at Ji Hongjin again.

This woman, at this moment, is like an ancient well with no bottom in sight.

Ji Hongjin looked at him with a smile, unbelievable that when she smiled, there were small dimples under the pink cheeks on both sides, which matched with her mature and gorgeous face, and she always felt that there was really something inconsistent with her temperament.

She smiled lightly: "Ah, did it scare you? apprentice~"

Zhou Jiujian glanced at her, she was talking to the dragon just now, but the young man didn't hear it, at this moment, he just asked, "This one...... Dragon, you've been locked up here for a hundred years?"

Ji Hongjin carried a pair of hands, blinked her beautiful eyes, straightened her plump chest, and then nodded unabashedly.

Zhou Jiujian's eyes widened, since ancient times, he had only heard that the dragons in the world were mostly divine beasts that belonged to the water, and most of them inhabited rivers and seas or places with sufficient water vapor......

Although this molten slurry seems to be liquid, but it is the hottest fire in this world, since ancient times, water and fire are incompatible and mutually exclusive, if a dragon is trapped here, so that it is scorched by this molten slurry every moment, is not the most cruel punishment in this world?

"This ...... Who locked it up here?" Zhou Jiujian couldn't help but ask.

Ji Hongjin stretched out a green onion finger, and then slowly nodded at himself, and said, "That person...... Naturally, it's me!"

When the young man heard this, he looked at her in a daze, a little incredulous, so that he didn't come back to his senses for a long time, but he just kept looking so surprised.

Ji Hongjin looked at him and sneered, "What's the matter? Do you think that I said that I have that Sword Immortal cultivation, but I am just deceiving you?"

Halfway through, Zhou Jiujian reacted and asked in a stunned voice, "Why are you keeping it here?"

Ji Hongjin listened to the young man's question, and looked very impatient, and said, "I said, little ghost, why do you have so many questions?"

Zhou Jiujian was stunned for a moment when he heard her say this, and then realized that his question seemed to be asking too much, and he quickly suppressed his curiosity and said, "I'm sorry to ......."

Ji Hongjin looked at him, then turned his head, but suddenly heard her say again: "This place is called 'Lock Dragon Well' by me, and the origin of this name is naturally because of this little reptile under our feet." As for why I want to keep it here, of course there is a reason for me, well, for the sake of you being my apprentice, it doesn't hurt to tell you. The reason why I locked this little reptile here is because of its bead. ”

Suddenly hearing her say this, Zhou Jiujian's eyes lit up again, and then said, "Beads?"

"It's the dragon ball. Ji Hongjin said casually.

"Dragon...... Dragon Ball?" Zhou Jiu Kendo.

Ji Hongjin looked at him: "You haven't heard of it?"

Zhou Jiujian shook his head, nodded again, and replied, "I've heard of it, but I haven't seen it." ”

Ji Hongjin laughed to himself again: "That's a coincidence, I haven't seen it as a teacher?"

When Zhou Jiujian heard this, he was a little puzzled again.

Ji Hongjin glanced at the molten slurry under his feet, and then explained to the young man: "That little reptile is quite stubborn, and I have been locked here for a hundred years, so that the scales and leather bands around its body have been burned by the molten molten fire, but I am still reluctant to hand over the dragon ball." ”

Zhou Jiujian naturally knew that it had been mentioned in the book that the dragon's body was full of treasures, but its most precious thing was undoubtedly the dragon ball.

Sometimes, even if a dragon is killed, it is difficult to even see the shadow of the dragon ball, which is enough to see what the status of the dragon ball is in the dragon family.

"That'...... Since all the bones are left, isn't it dead?"

"It's dead, and it's still relying on its bead to support its current existence. Ji Hongjin said again.

Then, I saw her say to Zhou Jiujian with a sly face: "Actually, its scale armor and leather band were also taken by me to make weapons, tsk, it's still easy to use." ”

Zhou Jiujian listened to her words, and was speechless in his heart, the dragon full of anger in his feelings, it turned out that he was not coming at himself, but you, the person with whom he had a deep hatred, was just injured by mistake!

I really didn't know what to say, Zhou Jiujian looked at her, and then asked, "So, what do you want its dragon ball for?"

Ji Hongjin looked at him with a stupid look, but he still explained to him: "It's really stupid, what else can I use it for?"

The young man was speechless, the dragon ball belongs to the treasure of the dragon clan, and it is extremely useful, whether it is refining weapons and refining medicine or improving the monk's own cultivation, it can also come in handy, and if she doesn't know, so many uses, how can she guess it.

However, forging a sword?

Zhou Jiujian caught such a key eye, looked at her in surprise, and said, "Sword casting?!Do you know how to forge a sword?, are you still a swordsmith?"

Ji Hongjin looked at the young man with an indifferent face, and his reaction was naturally not as violent as his, and said: "And what are you excited about? You little ghost is too much to breathe, isn't it just a swordsmith, I didn't tell you? Oh, it seems that I really haven't mentioned it." ”

Zhou Jiujian looked at her with some doubts and said, "You...... Isn't he a sword fairy, how did he become a swordsmith again?"

Ji Hongjin smiled mysteriously, looked at the young man, and said: "Tut-tut, apprentice, you are too underestimated as a teacher, as a teacher, not only a sword immortal and swordsmith, but also a ...... Well, I won't tell you yet!"

At the end of the conversation, she suddenly changed her words again, and Zhou Jiujian smiled bitterly.

Well, at least for the time being, I still learned that she was a sword fairy and a swordsmith.

An incredibly beautiful woman.

Putting aside those irrelevant topics for the time being, Zhou Jiujian looked at her again, and then said, "So, your purpose is to need that dragon ball to forge a sword, right?"

Ji Hongjin chuckled and nodded.

"However, the dragon ball is hidden by that dragon down there, how can you get it?" Zhou Jiujian asked.

Ji Hongjin shook his head and said, "I don't need to pick it up, as long as I know that the bead is down here." ”

"How?"

Ji Hongjin suddenly raised his hand, pointed to the molten slurry below, and said, "Because, this is my sword-casting furnace, this bead is already in the furnace at this time, why should I worry?"

When Zhou Jiujian heard this, he patted his head and suddenly realized, yes, why didn't he expect that he could still do this!

The young man then looked at Ji Hongjin and said, "Since that's the case, doesn't that mean that you have already started forging swords?"

Ji Hongjin shook his head again, looked at him inexplicably with a smile, and said, "No, I'm ...... at the moment." There is still a little bit of material. ”

"Materials?" the boy looked at her with blazing eyes on him, as if that meant that the poor material had something to do with him.

Zhou Jiujian asked tentatively: "I don't know, what kind of sword do you want to build?"

Hearing this, Ji Hongjin raised his eyebrows, a bright light flashed between his eyes, and his delicate face showed a touch of arrogance, and said: "The sword forged by the old lady must be among the fairy swords on the heavenly list!"

Such a tone must be said to be not big, but the young man believes her in his heart.

I don't know why, it's clear, I don't spend much time with this woman, let alone understanding, anyway, it's just an intuition.

Then I heard her say: "I originally planned to use the dragon ball to forge a rare fire essence in the world, so that it can have the world's supreme water and fire divine power at the same time, then when the sword is completed, its power will be incomparably great." ”

Zhou Jiujian heard her say this, just listening to it, he already felt that it was not simple.

"However, there is a crucial problem......" but she changed her mind.

At this time, the boy should be able to guess what the problem is.

Sure enough, I saw her continue: "The dragon balls are water, but the fire essence is fire, and the extreme water and the extreme fire clash with each other, if they are forcibly melted together, they may not succeed, but they will be broken by water and fire, and such a rare treasure in the world is wasted, so I need to find a material that can neutralize and make them compatible." ”

Hearing her say this, it was similar to what he had guessed, and the boy wanted to know more at this moment what materials should be used to make this extreme fire compatible with the dragon ball and fire spirit of extreme water.

"So, have you found that kind of material?" Zhou Jiujian asked curiously.

Ji Hongjin looked at him, and then, he showed an extremely bright and beautiful smile, showing his stunning appearance.

I saw her laugh softly: "I found it, I have worked hard to finally let me find a wooden sword made of 'Immortal Sycamore Wood', if it is smelted and forged, just enough to make it a sword body, in order to carry the power of the Dragon Ball and the Fire Spirit, and the two will definitely not cause the slightest conflict, it can be described as an excellent carrier material!"

Zhou Jiujian listened to her slowly, and the look on the young man's face gradually changed from curiosity, then frowned, and then suddenly startled, when she said the "wooden sword made of sycamore immortal wood", where could she not be clear in her heart, it was clearly her own sycamore wooden sword!

He looked at Ji Hongjin again, and was about to say something to stop her.

At this moment, Ji Hongjin also just finished speaking, and smiled lightly at the young man, and then, something suddenly flew out of her hand, without blinking.

If you look closely, it's a wooden sword.

The young man's sycamore sword.

When Zhou Jiujian saw the wooden sword flying out, it was already too late, so he ran a few steps outside, but when he reached the edge of the rock road, he could only stop angrily, watching the sycamore wooden sword fly in mid-air, and then fall down.

Zhou Jiujian subconsciously looked at the Sycamore Wood Sword with the skill of the sword he had learned before, hoping that it would be controlled by it immediately, and then flew back.

However, without the slightest reaction, the sycamore wooden sword fell into the molten slurry, and then a trace of black smoke came out, and it was completely engulfed by the molten slurry in the blink of an eye.

Zhou Jiujian then turned his head and glared at Ji Hongjin with an angry expression.

Ji Hongjin looked at the young man and said lightly: "Little ghost, if you look at me with this look again, then I will throw you down and melt it." ”

Hearing her say this, Zhou Jiujian felt a chill in his heart.

Then I suddenly thought again, was I confused, or was I deceived by the mask she was wearing? Now, I am obviously still under her control, what kind of apprentice master...... In front of her, the young man, whether he was or is now, is just an ant that can be pinched to death if she pinches it slightly!

This is the reality of today!
