Practice begins with a fisherman

"The Lancet, come out" Since it was necessary to fight head-on, it was time for the half-spiritual weapon Lancet, which had been refined in the dantian for a long time, to attack.

Before Zhao Shoushou finished speaking, a small spiritual light flashed, with a strong cold light, and it just attacked an ice wall in front, and at the same time, the water acupuncture technique was used to delay the time as much as possible.

At the same moment, the other six monks who entered through the teleportation array together encountered attacks of different attributes at different locations.

A bearded monk persisted in the raging fire. He was originally a wood-attribute monk, no matter what kind of spiritual spell he used, his power was greatly reduced under the restraint of the attribute, and even his eyebrows and beard began to burn.

A female cultivator in fluttering fairy clothes held a flower basket in her hand, hundreds of petals leaped out of it, turning into sharp blades in mid-air, easily crushing the natives blocking her way into powder.

The third monk was trapped in a shining golden light shield, no matter how hard he tried, the iron ax in the hand of the driver was still difficult to open it.

In short, the monks who are in the test of the big formation are undergoing different tests in different positions, but there are some differences due to different cultivation bases, or they are moving forward or slow, and there are various situations.

In addition, in a cave some distance away from them, more than a dozen monks gathered here, looking murderous as if they were waiting for the fat sheep not far away to come to their door. There are always many monks hiding everywhere in the cultivation world waiting to pick up cheap of.

Chapter 223 The Strange Shell in the Corner

It turns out that this cave is located in the middle of the mist formation. The monks who occupy this place can observe any monk in the formation at will, but the monks in the formation cannot find any abnormalities here.

Of course, this place is also restricted by the formation. The attack range of the spirit weapon is only within ten feet from the cave. Once it exceeds this range, the spirit weapon will be lost in the formation due to some special rules. A monk has really learned a lesson from the experience of suffering heavy losses.

However, for Zhao Shoushou, who is trying to get rid of the ice wall, it is obviously too early to discuss all this. Seeing that the two ice walls are getting closer and closer, the calm and calm look on his face also appeared. some changes.

The power of the two ice walls far exceeded his imagination, and the ice wall in the front was only left with a few deep ice marks under the frenzied attack of the lancet.

As for the ice wall at the rear, under the double obstruction of the water needle technique and the water net technique, it only slightly slowed down its forward speed, basically there was no big loss.

Once the two ice walls meet head-on, Zhao Shoushou, who lives in the center, will definitely turn into a pool of bright blood. At this time, Zhao Shoushou has a little regret for his optimism at the beginning.

Since he was willing to take the risk to come to the Golden Core stage monk's cave, he naturally had more means than these, but he never thought that he would encounter such a predicament at the beginning.

"After being promoted to Foundation Establishment, I finally squinted my eyes a little bit, and I overestimated my own strength, anyway, today is a lesson." After speaking, an unusually bright talisman seal appeared in front of his right hand.

From the clear patterns and colors on the talisman seal, it can be clearly judged that this is a powerful second-tier low-grade fire attribute talisman, named "True Fire Amulet".

Judging from the name, it may not have too obvious features, but purely in terms of attack power, it ranks among the best among talisman seals of the same level, and there are really limited ones that can surpass it. This talisman seal is also a stall selling talisman seals outside Jindan Cave Mansion. It was exchanged for three one-yuan heavy water.

Fire overcomes water, which also has a certain restraint effect on the ice attribute, and it is just right to use it here, but there is one less way to deal with the enemy in the follow-up expedition.

The second-tier low-grade True Fire Talisman took a simple and unpretentious route, without too many flashy tricks. Once it was sacrificed, there was only a crimson flame, but its lethality and temperature should not be underestimated.

"The real fire burns, and the ice wall breaks." Zhao Shoushou stretched his hands forward, and the flame, which was only as thick as an ordinary person's arm, flashed lightly, easily burning a huge hole in the ice wall in front of him.

Under the cover of real fire, the ice wall that was chasing after him quickly realized the transformation from ice to water. A rather dangerous crisis was completely eliminated under the action of the real fire talisman do.

After this incident, Zhao Shoushou had a brand-new understanding of attribute compatibility. The reason why he failed repeatedly was precisely because of the relationship between water and ice.

"Attributes are incompatible, so that's how it is." A soft sigh came from his mouth, which was pitiful to say the least. Although he stumbled along the way and got promoted to the foundation stage by chance, some shortcomings in common sense are not easily remedied.

Of course, these thoughts were only instantaneous, and his main energy and consciousness were placed behind the ice wall, especially at the moment when the two ice walls disappeared, a gap flashed through. Although the time was short, Zhao Shoushou succeeded. Will seize this fleeting opportunity.

Before it really disappeared, it was torn apart with the lancet as the vanguard, and successfully entered the first safe haven in this formation.

It actually took only a quarter of an hour from entering the mist formation to the present, but the test along the way is not a little, and the consumption of mana in the dantian also needs to be restored and adjusted.

"Although this place is only on the outskirts, the richness of the spiritual power has far surpassed the second-order low-grade spiritual veins. It is worthy of being the residence of the ancestors of the Golden Core Stage." Zhao Shoushou sighed and sat cross-legged on the small stone platform and closed his eyes. Pranayama.

In fact, the rapid consumption and recovery of mana in this current state has many benefits for the improvement of cultivation. I think that after the trip to Jindan Cave Mansion is over, it will be one step closer to the second floor of the foundation.

As for the safety of the shelters, there will be no problems. Each shelter can only be occupied by one monk, and until he leaves, he will always be hidden in the formation.

This point can better reflect the benevolent thoughts of the owner of this place. After all, isn't it the best explanation for the many people who trespassed and left life behind?

"It's a good place to retreat and practice. If you don't want to miss the opportunity ahead, you can break through the second floor with certainty if you practice here for three to five years." After two hours, Zhao Shoushou slowly opened his eyes.

At this time, the spiritual power in the dantian has been filled again, and the exhaustion from breaking through the level before has also disappeared, and his energy and spirit have reached the peak again.

The reason why Zhao Shoushou didn't rush back in a hurry was because he was restricted by his own strength on the one hand, and on the other hand, he had a very clear purpose in mind, which was just to pick up some leftovers.

At this time, the monks in the cave are basically divided into four stages, and the first ones are undoubtedly the monks of the Jindan stage, and their purpose is also to compete for the third-order spiritual objects at the core of the cave;

Ranked in the second row are many late-stage foundation-building monks. After many years of immersion, their strength is unfathomable. The purpose is naturally a treasure that is helpful for condensing golden cores;

The third sequence is the largest number of mid-stage foundation-building monks. They have no fixed goals, and they will not let go of any helpful treasures, like a group of greedy locusts.

Zhao Shoushou was ranked last in the sequence. There were not many monks in the early stage of foundation establishment, so he could only follow the other monks and search in some inconspicuous corners, hoping to have a good luck and harvest some second-level spiritual objects.

To sum up, since the purpose is very clear, he naturally doesn't need to worry. What needs to be worried may be that once he rushes too far, he will easily become one of the cannon fodder with his low strength, even if there are some great gains , and may not be able to keep it from greedy eyes.

"Making a fortune in silence is the best strategy. Isn't this strange shell a good income?" Zhao Shoushou opened his hands with a smug smile on his face.

This almost hole-ridden shell was an accidental find when the ice wall melted, but its purpose has not yet been figured out.

This shell is not a special auxiliary spiritual tool, and its texture is not hard. No other special features have been found so far, so it is not a spiritual material.

But since being able to appear in the cave of the golden core stage monks must have special significance, Zhao Shoushou firmly believes in this point.

"Keep moving forward, the treasure is still beckoning to someone." Encouraged by the shell, he embarked on a new journey with a flushed face and full of confidence, and his figure gradually disappeared into the mist.

Chapter 224 Burning Fire Refining the True Body

In fact, Zhao Shoushou didn't know that the shells he got were just rewards for passing the first level. Of course, this special reward needs to be discovered by himself.

It's just that a large number of monks missed this small opportunity unintentionally because of joy or fright. These small things will naturally enter the next reincarnation under the influence of the formation, until the owner of this cave has arranged it. Until all treasures are consumed.

From this point of view, Zhao Shoushou doesn't seem to be so unlucky. After all, the small things left behind by the ancestors of the golden core stage are good quality treasures for most of the foundation building stage monks.

Although the specific function of the shells obtained by chance from the ice wall is still unknown, they must be of great value, waiting for Zhao Shoushou to unveil its mysterious veil.

"It's ice in front, but it's fire now. Could it be that this senior at the Jindan stage who has been sitting for many years can really be pinched?" He was surrounded by raging fire not long after he left the safe haven.

And this kind of raging fire is obviously not the same kind of existence as ordinary flames, it is both tangible and intangible, and monks have nowhere to hide, they can only endure the scorching of raging fire.

The high temperature was ubiquitous, and crimson flames were almost everywhere in sight. Zhao Shoushou's body was undergoing inexplicable tests all the time.

His skin is red, his hair is red, and his eyebrows are red. Under this redness, the blood vessels are even highlighted.

The strange thing is that under such a harsh environment, Zhao Shoushou didn't have any scars all over his body. Is it just a test of willpower?All this is illusory, isn't it?

No matter what the whirling thoughts in my mind are, whether their guesses are correct or not, in short, facing the erosion of the fire at this stage, I still dare not be careless.

It's just that with the mana in the dantian as the source, a transparent light shield is formed around the body, struggling to resist the erosion of the firepower everywhere.

Because of the attributes of Xiangke, the consumption of mana of this raging fire array was far beyond his expectations, and it was almost constantly decreasing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

This situation can be said to be the first time he has encountered it since he was promoted to Foundation Establishment for several years. Even though he had faced such a fierce battle with the armored corpses before, he still hadn't reached the current situation.

"According to the current situation, the magic power in a certain dantian can only last half an hour at most, and the power of the fire will increase with the distance. It is the best policy to leave as soon as possible." Zhao Shoushou looked serious With a mutter, he endured the severe pain everywhere and accelerated his pace.

The formations arranged by the Jindan stage monks are obviously not so simple. This kind of conventional coping method will definitely not play its due role, and it may be counterproductive.

This deep understanding of Zhao Shoushou at this stage obviously has not comprehended the true meaning of it, perhaps only when the critical moment of life and death is approaching, there is a slight possibility of enlightenment.

A cup of tea, a stick of incense, the passing of a quarter of an hour is very fast. According to its speed, it should at least advance a distance of a thousand feet, but it still has not escaped the scorching fire. It seems that its power is still in a continuous rising period Same.

"The figure of the second shelter has never appeared so far. There is no way to go forward and no way to go back. Is it possible that someone will be roasted alive?" Zhao Shoushou's anxiety is obviously not unreasonable.

Because with the rapid consumption of mana in the dantian, the protective mask is also becoming thinner at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the higher and higher temperatures are approaching its tolerance limit.

If the correct measures cannot be taken in time, I am afraid that Zhao Shoushou's end will be extremely miserable in the near future. All this is destined to find a way out of the adversity as soon as possible.

"The surrounding fire tends to decrease a little bit. Could it be that it is about to approach the edge of the fire formation?" When time was running out, Zhao Shoushou looked as if he had realized something, and the expression on his face also changed slightly. Relax a little bit.

"Using mana as fuel, burning its filth, and extracting its essence, the purpose of this large formation is entirely to give the monks present an opportunity to improve the quality of mana and consolidate their foundation. The products produced by Jindan are all high-quality goods." When the quality of mana was extremely high, Zhao Shoushou was overjoyed.

The light shield that had been surrounding his body took the initiative to remove it, and let a large number of flames around him wrap his whole body. When he felt the purification of spiritual power, the original pain became insignificant and even showed an expression of enjoyment .

When the spiritual power of the water attribute is lost to serve as fuel, the power of the surrounding fire formations does not inexplicably increase, but remains within its tolerable range.

During this process, apart from the purification of mana, the strength of the body also slowly increased. During the refining process, one could even feel that some impurities hidden in the depths turned into a black gas and were discharged from the body.

Except for the promotion of cultivation base and some panaceas with special functions, the purification of mana rarely achieves the desired effect, so when he discovered the mystery of the raging fire formation, how could he not be a little bit happy?

Naturally, the effect of mana purification is needless to say. By laying a solid foundation, you can go further on the road of practice in the future. As for the importance of physical enhancement, there is no doubt that it will become more and more important in the future with the improvement of cultivation base.

"The raging fire refines the real body, and both mana and body are improved. This trip can be said to be a great opportunity, and this alone is enough." Zhao Shoushou showed a satisfied smile on his face.

The purification of mana does not need to be completely refined, it only needs to leave a trace of spiritual power seeds in the dantian, and the rest only needs to leave enough time for transformation.

Now that he has discovered the mystery of it, Zhao Shoushou will naturally not waste a bit, not to mention that after dissipating the spiritual mask, he has not yet reached the limit that his body can bear, and the real refining has not yet begun, so he is not in a hurry to get out of this place. A large formation of raging fire.

Whether it is the improvement of mana or physical strength, it is not achieved overnight, and it is destined to obtain enough benefits. This large formation cannot be easily left.

After thinking clearly about the gains and losses, Zhao Shoushou sat cross-legged in the middle of the big fire with a serious expression, his eyes closed and his legs crossed, letting the fire burn on his body.

After completely letting go of his mind and trying to blend in, the surrounding fire seemed to be unwilling to stay on the surface, and began to enter the body with each breath. Zhao Shoushou had no intention of resisting this.

The ancestor of Jindan who once set up the formation was tested in this special way, which is extremely miraculous. Those who succeed can enjoy endless benefits, and those who fail can only be expelled and have no fear of their lives.

As time passed, almost all of Zhao Shoushou's body was surrounded by raging fire. The benefits of the internal and external roasting were obvious, and its side effects should not be underestimated either.

Chapter 225 The Spiritual Artifact Flying Around

The double internal and external roasting of the flame, especially the strands of flame that enters the body along with the breath and travels along the meridians, whenever it drives out a stream of impurities in the body, there is always a pain that is no less than that of scraping bones to treat poison. Come.

Even though he has gone through countless similar or even superior tests since he embarked on the road of cultivation, he has never encountered such a continuous seemingly endless situation.

Therefore, it can be seen that even under the heavy siege of crimson flames, one can still clearly see the trembling of his face under constant endurance.

All gains need to be paid, compared to other unattainable means, as well as the double strengthening of mana and body that can be clearly perceived, all of this seems to be tolerable.

In fact, in a high altitude that no one can see, a phantom above the formation, like the ruler of this place, is observing every move of all the monks.

When he finds out that the brute force destroyer blindly relies on himself, a trace of displeasure will appear on his illusory face, and a white gas from his nostrils will make up for it, making the busy monk fall into a new predicament.

Of course, once he finds that he meets the requirements of the big formation, uses its operation rules to strengthen himself or take away some treasures, a gratifying smile will appear on this phantom's face, and sometimes he is not stingy in rewarding some small monsters under his control. opportunity below.

At this time, what Zhao Shoushou did was undoubtedly in line with the requirements. When he sat cross-legged on the ground and practiced earnestly, a wisp of cyan flame was casually bestowed on his phantom face and blended into it.

Compared with other exploding hot red flames, it has an extraordinary effect on improving body and mana. I saw that this cyan flame easily entered its body like a spirit snake, following the eighth chapter of the Strange Sutra. The pulse burns away the hidden toxins that have not been cleaned up many times.

After each spiritual vein passed through, it would burst out with a unique turquoise color that contained the breath of life, which made Zhao Shoushou feel a special strange feeling all over his body.

Of course, this place used to be the former cave of a golden core stage monk, and the accompanying spiritual power is naturally indispensable. Therefore, in the process of purifying mana by burning fire, the recovery of mana is also a good way.

During this process, the mana that Zhao Shoushou originally consumed when he first entered the Raging Fire Formation was slowly recovering and improving, and all the mana that appeared in the process of recovery in his dantian was purified mana.

Although its number has not been significantly increased, the energy contained in the same amount of spiritual power is not the same. After passing the test of the fire formation, Zhao Shoushou's combat power has increased by more than [-]%, which is of great help to the later exploration, and it is also a role for playing. The best way for pigs to eat tigers.

After all, no monk could have imagined that a monk who was born as a casual cultivator and did not even have a formal spiritual weapon by his side could have such pure spiritual power in his dantian.

As time passed, Zhao Shoushou didn't rush forward to explore and fight for the so-called treasures. He always firmly believed that forging iron requires one's own strength. Compared with foreign objects, the improvement of cultivation is the most real.

As long as this raging fire array is still of obvious help to him, and it is still within his tolerable range, he will definitely not leave easily.

"Zhao Shoushou, thank you senior for giving me the opportunity." This kind of cultivation continued until half a month later, and he shouted to the sky with almost obvious improvement in his whole body.

The busy half a month has obviously had a good effect. In addition to the purification of mana and the tempering of the body, his cultivation base has a small increase. One step closer.

Zhao Shoushou couldn't help but be grateful for everything he got by accident, which is why he did the above-mentioned actions. Of course, all of this will not take up too much time. Now that his strength has improved a lot, his next goal is naturally Go ahead and explore for more treasures.

At this time, the six monks who entered at the same time as Zhao Shoushou had already traveled an unknown distance. The lucky ones had passed the test of the formation and harvested a lot of treasures. Of course, there were also some unlucky ones who fell because of this.

The actual situation now is that Zhao Shoushou has fallen behind the main search force, and even the monks who were originally intercepting and killing in the cave in the middle have relaxed and closed their eyes to adjust their breath.

It was under such circumstances that he had gradually moved forward to explore. It is estimated that most of the monks would never have imagined that there would be a monk in the Foundation Establishment period who would be besieged by a seemingly ordinary formation for half a month.

"Someone's strength has improved a bit now, but it's a pity that there is still a long way to go from the bottom layer. The road is long and long, and I will search up and down." After a sigh, the speed of exploration is even faster. Hurry up, and you will be one step closer to the first possible fall location, and you are about to face a thrilling battle.

After completing the practice of the fire array, it is naturally not difficult to move forward. After about a stick of incense, after passing through two shelters in a row, the cave in the middle is already close at hand. The movement has also alarmed some pranayama monks.

Especially some monks who were relatively close to the entrance of the cave, faced the sudden situation, they were completely dull, and really couldn't figure out where this little guy came from.

"Could it be that I've been besieged by the second formation for half a month? It's really strange that there are more every year, especially this year." The monk at the front finally came to his senses, but instead of making any noise, he carefully organized the spiritual weapons in his hand , as if preparing to eat alone.

The position of the monks in the cave is also based on their strength. The deepest and safest position is naturally occupied by the most powerful, and usually captures the most trophies.

Perhaps in his opinion, such a stupid monk is nothing more than a newly promoted foundation-building monk who lacks spiritual weapons and is shy in his talisman pocket. There is no chance for the monks to escape.

"It must be a poor casual cultivator. There are only some miscellaneous things in his bag, which is better than nothing." A monk carrying a sledgehammer sighed, and at the same time his eyes flashed, the sledgehammer had already flew away, and the target was just now. Zhao Shoushou who entered the ambush circle.

Almost at the same time, several monks who had never made any moves decisively sacrificed spiritual weapons of different shapes to attack the same target.

"Lancet, come out" Zhao Shoushou, who is located in the center of the spiritual weapons, has already sacrificed the lancet in an attempt to resist the evil wind from all directions, without understanding the mystery of it.

"Where did Fellow Daoist attack Zhao? Do we have any grudges?" An angry shout came from his mouth, mainly to scare the snake away.

Chapter 226 The Unremarkable Utility Room

After all, when the spiritual consciousness is suppressed within a few feet, it is too passive to respond to the enemy. If the trace of the enemy cannot be found in time, it will take too long to fear accidents.
