Strange rocks are strange, like strange beasts, like people. As far as the eye can see, the stone forest spreads dozens of miles away, and after that, there is an endless mountain forest.

Shiraishi walked forward quickly, and in this vigilance, entered the edge of the stone forest. It's just that at this moment, standing in the stone forest, he can't see anything farther away. Occasionally, you can see some green branches and thorns, all growing in the cracks of the stones.

Shiraishi continued to move forward, and he seemed more cautious in this strange stone forest. As his fists clenched, waves of energy fluctuated rapidly around him. Under this vigilance, his steps seemed to slow down. This is not because the road in the stone forest is extremely difficult to walk, but because he knows very well that in this complex terrain, the chances of those strange beasts lurking are very high.

But even so, when Shiraishi continued to walk a few hundred meters, everything was as quiet as he had been when he had passed through the woods. The silence led him to stop in front of a natural mountain made of stones.

This mountain peak is not high, only about 30 meters, but on its peak, there are some weeds, looking from a distance, it looks like a huge hedgehog. On top of some of the stones, there were some small pits that were not too large, and the pits were full of stagnant water, which was probably caused by melting snow and ice.

Shiraishi looked around, and his guess was that he should be able to find a place to live in this small peak.

As it turned out, when he glanced at it, he suddenly noticed that in the corner of the mountain, there was some messy grass, and through the gap between the grass, there seemed to be a hidden cave.

This cave is very hidden, and it is extremely difficult to find without careful observation.

Shiraishi walked over cautiously, he clearly knew that the more hidden the place, the more dangerous the hidden beast might be. So, he found a stick and gently cut through the grass. And the moment he picked up the grass, all his worries disappeared in an instant.

Because, when he opened the grass, he saw that the cobwebs covered almost the entire hole. This phenomenon indicates that the cave must have not been visited by strange beasts or living people for a long time.

Immediately, after Shiraishi cleaned the cobwebs from the entrance of the cave, he ran into the cave. The entrance to the cave is not large, just enough for white stones to pass through. But the cave was extremely wide, large enough for four or five people to rest in it.

After Shiraishi scurried inside, although the cave was covered with weeds, the inside of the cave was not as dark as he imagined. Because at the top of the cave, there is a crack that is not too big, and the sunlight just shines through the crack and illuminates the hidden cave.

It is precisely because of the light that in this cave, Baishi can clearly see that in the corner of the cave, there are some dry weeds. With his knowledge, he knew that those weeds were not used to make fires, but to sleep. And at the entrance of the cave, there was a black mark left by the smoke. Below there, there are some rocks, presumably in this cave, someone has visited.

Putting the tiger guts down, Shiraishi relaxed his vigilance, he walked to the side of the rock, wiped the black marks on the cave wall, but he couldn't touch his fingers, those black marks had already penetrated deep into the rock.

"Looks like it's been a while since this person left here......" Shiraishi muttered.

Then he sorted out the rubble and found some wood, which must have been left by the man before. And just as Baishi walked to the other corner of the cave, he suddenly noticed that some scattered white bones made him shiver.

And within these scattered bones, a rusty sword was stuck in his chest!

"It seems that this person was also a sword cultivator before, but looking at the surrounding situation, this person's cultivation is not high. Looking at such a state of death, it must have been because he went mad and committed suicide. Shiraishi reasoned.

After pulling out the iron sword, Shiraishi suddenly noticed that on the other side, there was something that resembled the inside of the barren ding.

Frowning slightly, Shiraishi walked over with doubts.

At a glance, it is an old absurdity!

"This is really nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it!" Shiraishi was overjoyed and suddenly said excitedly.

Baishi perked up, picked up the desolate ding, and began to look at it carefully.

It was not large, the size of a mature man, and had four curved feet under it, and a round-mouthed lid on it. There are strange patterns around, and Shiraishi can't tell what they depict. I just think it's very exquisite!

At first glance, the shape of the entire barren ding is very similar to a miniature version of the incense burning platform in the temple.

After wiping away the ash stagnation left on the barren roof, the sunlight sprinkled on it, and it emitted a faint light.

"Although this monk's cultivation is not high, to the desolate tripod he carries, it can be regarded as a top-grade tripod. Baishi groaned, pulled out the sharp sword that was rubbing against the white bones, and continued to groan: "I don't know if this iron sword is like this barren ding after the rust has receded, it is also like this barren ding, it is the best in a sword!"

Shiraishi guessed, put the Arading down, found another stone that was not too rough, and began to sharpen his sword.

The iron sword was a meter long, but it weighed about ten catties. There are no ornaments on the hilt, and it looks very ordinary.

In a few moments, Shiraishi had rubbed all the rust off the iron sword. In the sunlight, this iron sword can also emit a faint light, but other than that, there is nothing out of the ordinary.

"This iron sword should be an extremely ordinary sword, but this sharpness, if you carry it with you at any time, it can also be used as a sharp weapon for self-defense in this Chen Mountain Range. With that, Bai Shi put it aside, took the tiger guts, placed the stones, put the barren ding, and prepared his tempering jihua.

After everything was ready, what Shiraishi lacked was water and all the herbs. The water source was not a problem, because before that, he knew that there were some small pits that were full of stagnant water. What makes Baishi tricky is naturally the medicinal herbs that have not been found along the way.

"Purple Night Spirit Grass, Second Grade...... Chaos stamens, second grade, colorful tiger guts...... These three things are the things that have been quenched out of Hehesan, although this colorful tiger courage has been obtained, but this purple night spirit grass and chaos stamen have not been obtained, the purple night spirit grass grows in the damp corner, and the chaos flower stamen blooms in the stone crevices. Logically speaking, these two things should be very easy to find in this mountain range, why did I come all the way and find no trace......" Shiraishi frowned, groaning, feeling very anxious.

Sitting cross-legged, Shiraishi did not walk out of the cave for the first time, but quickly guessed in his mind where these things would grow.

"Master once said that if you have the help of an elixir in the process of improving your own cultivation, then you can use the elixir to help you break through in the future. And these herbs are grown in early spring...... Could it be because they haven't recovered yet?"

Shiraishi guessed that from his heart, although these elixirs were very difficult to find at the moment, they must be much simpler than those herbs in the future, so at this stage from the fourth stage of the foundation building period to the fifth level of the foundation building period, he wanted to leave the foundation of the elixir in his body. It's much easier to break through backwards.

After groaning, Shiraishi lifted his chin and fell silent. With his current strength, if he wants to haunt this stone forest rashly, he still needs a certain amount of courage.

At the same time, the sky suddenly changed dramatically, and the earth, which had been illuminated by sunlight, instantly became dark due to the rapid spread of dark clouds. And bursts of thunder that shook the heavens and the earth also roared at this time, accompanied by rapid lightning. A pouring rain, in an instant, seemed to come bizarrely.

The first spring rain of early spring has arrived......

It was precisely because of the arrival of this spring rain that Baishi, who was in silence, suddenly jumped up and ran to the entrance of the cave, as if he had thought of something, and was excited, waiting for the spring rain to stop.
