Chapter 434: Vigilance and the Way of Ice and Fire
In an unknown area, a huge mountain with a height of several thousand feet stands tall. The mountain is extremely steep and steep. The entire mountain is composed of blue and black boulders, and the middle is divided into two by miraculous workmanship, all the way to the giant mountain.
The foundation is located, forming a huge natural canyon.
What's even weirder is that the two halves of the mountain are actually wrapped in red and blue lights, making them appear eerie and mysterious when viewed from a distance.
At this time, at the entrance of the canyon, there were fifty or sixty monks in various clothes sitting quietly and waiting, turning their heads from time to time to look in the direction of the canyon, with expressions of expectation and faint fear.
At the edge of the corner, the white-haired old man suddenly raised his head and looked at the sky, and said with some confusion:
"It's so late. Everyone who should be there has arrived, but that guy hasn't shown up yet. Could there be something wrong?"
"All the Yuanying-stage old monsters from both good and evil paths are here, no one can threaten him." A thin middle-aged man next to him whispered back, and then let go of his consciousness to sense carefully, and suddenly
, suddenly his eyes flashed and he said,
"It's already here, more than a hundred miles away."
"It's okay." The old man with white hair obviously felt something, and then he felt relieved.
The thin man also withdrew his consciousness, suddenly glanced in the direction of good and evil, and then said through a message,
"Look at this situation, both the good and the evil are trying to plot against the Xutian Cauldron."
"It's just wishful thinking. If the Xutian Cauldron is really so easy to obtain, will it be their turn?" The gray-haired old man sneered, obviously not optimistic about it.
"According to the investigation, Wan Tianming obtained a lot of golden silk cicadas, and it may be possible to succeed. Moreover, even if he cannot obtain the treasure tripod, it will be a big trouble to obtain some powerful treasures from them.
In short, this matter must be guarded against, but the extremely sinister old monster originally prepared two alien fire pythons, which are the hope of the demonic side, but unfortunately..." The thin man smiled, but there was a trace of ridicule in his eyes, and in an instant he
Passed away.
Without the Jiyin old monster, the Demonic Way naturally has no possibility of obtaining the Xutian Cauldron. But at this time, it is too late to give up and return, so we can only bite the bullet and continue to move forward.
As expected by the man in black robe, the several Nascent Soul stage monks on the demonic side at this time all looked solemn. The ancestor of Jiyin had not returned yet, and the three of them instinctively had an ominous premonition in their hearts.
The three of them, headed by Man Beard, kept discussing in a low voice.
"Someone attacked you? Who is it? Is it the guys from Zhengdao or the two old guys from Xinggong?" Suddenly hearing the story of the old man in Confucian clothing, Man Beard was stunned and immediately asked in a deep voice.
"I don't know either." The old man in Confucian clothing shook his head slightly and continued,
"The opponent's face was covered, and they only fought for a few rounds before they separated. Moreover, the opponent seemed to be deliberately concealing it. The methods and magic weapons used were very unfamiliar, and I couldn't guess it."
"According to what fellow Taoist said, we were originally chasing Ji Yin. We didn't want to be attacked by strangers on the way. Doesn't it mean that the other party is very likely to take action against Ji Yin?" The beautiful woman in the white dress on the side flashed her bright eyes and analyzed.<
/p>
"This..." After hearing this, the old man in Confucian clothing suddenly changed his expression. He thought it was really possible, but he was just running away and didn't think about this.
"So, isn't that Jiyin guy a bad guy?" Barbarian Beard frowned, turned his head and glanced at several figures not far away, with a cold look in his eyes.
Although he has nothing to deal with Ji Yin, at least here, the two parties are an alliance of interests. If something happens to the other party, it will not be of any benefit to him.
He is doing better. He has enough strength to rely on and does not worry about his own safety. Although the old man in Confucian clothing is worried, he has no intention of giving up. He will naturally continue to struggle as his life is short.
Only the beautiful woman in the white dress was the most troubled. At this time, she already regretted it. If she had known that this would be the case, she should not have agreed to the invitation.
It's good now, it's too late to regret it.
Not only the three demon cultivators, but also the three Nascent Soul stage monks from the righteous path also looked at each other with confusion in their hearts.
Something happened to the old gloomy monster? Otherwise, why hasn't he shown up yet? As for giving up entering the inner hall and returning to the safe area, that is obviously impossible. The other party has prepared two different species of fire pythons for this operation. With this information, they
I also know something about it.
The three of them knew very well that they had not done anything, and if something really happened to the old monster Ji Yin, there was a high probability that it would be closely related to the two old guys from Xing Gong.
When they thought of this, the three of them suddenly became vigilant.
……
Three rays of light came from far away and flew straight to the ground.
Looking at the many monks waiting in front of him and the huge, motionless canyon, Mo Juren felt relieved. He had spent a lot of time going around in circles and fighting with the Jiyin old monster, plus looking for the elixir.<
/p>
Fortunately, I hurriedly hurriedly and finally didn’t miss it.
The appearance of the three people naturally attracted the attention of many people. When they found out that they were just three monks in the alchemy stage, they just glanced at them and stopped paying attention.
Mo Juren didn't care, and took the two of them directly to find a seat and sit down, waiting quietly.
He did come a little late. In just over half an hour, the direction of the giant mountain changed.
The red and blue light masks on the left and right halves of the mountain suddenly shined brightly. At the same time, two narrow passages split open under the mountain wall near the entrance amid a sudden tremor.
Obviously, this is the entrance to the canyon, and there are two stone tablets in front of them, with the names 'Xuanjing Road' and 'Lava Road' engraved on them.
As soon as the passage was stable, impatient people immediately took action and walked in first.
Naturally, there are some who are cautious, probably because they understand how terrifying the Ice and Fire Path is, so they are hesitant. However, since you have made the choice to come here, you can't regret it. After hesitating for a moment, you also stepped into it.
As time goes by, more and more monks choose to enter.
The three of them, Mo Juren, were no exception. After getting up, they walked directly towards the entrance of the 'Lava Road'. For him, it didn't matter which one he chose. No matter whether it was extremely cold or hot, it could not affect him.
.
The reason why we chose 'Lava Road' is also very simple. Firstly, we are familiar with it and know what kind of trouble we will encounter there; secondly, because of Han Li, because of his reminder, the other party purchased a lot of magic weapons in advance.
And they are all designed for hot environments.
In this case, he naturally made such a choice. As for Xu Qingcheng, as a Yuanying stage monk, he didn't even care.
The lava road is indeed not easy. As soon as he approached the entrance, a rolling heat wave hit his face. The temperature was far higher than expected. Han Li on the side suddenly became thirsty.
Seeing this situation, he no longer dared to hold it up, and immediately took out an ice-blue bracelet and put it on. In an instant, a transparent light mask emerged, completely wrapping his body, and a cooling feeling spread throughout his body.
p>
"The environment inside will be even worse, so be prepared." Mo Juren smiled, and then took the lead in walking towards the entrance. Seeing this, the two people behind him immediately followed closely.
The interior of the passage is not very wide, only about two feet high, but a dazzling red light is faintly visible in the depths of the line of sight, which is a bit shocking.
As we continue to go deeper, the temperature in the surrounding air is also rising sharply. At this moment, Mo Juren's physical body is strong, immune to cold and heat, and he can also feel a trace of heat.
Of course, this amount of heat is nothing to him, not even mana.
In contrast, even Xu Qingcheng had to emit body-protecting spiritual light to resist the scorching heat.
Han Li frowned even more. He could feel that if the temperature continued to rise like this, he might not be able to survive for long with just this ice bracelet.
Sure enough, when the three of them walked to the end of the passage, they passed through a red wall of light and instantly entered a world of high temperature.
At that moment, the heat wave that had disappeared surged in again, and the transparent light mask around Han Li suddenly began to shake. It was obvious that he could no longer hold on. Fortunately, he reacted in time and quickly input a burst of mana to temporarily stabilize it.
At the same time, his hands flashed one after another, and several magic weapons of different shapes emerged, each one exuding the ultimate chill.
After finishing dressing up and feeling the coolness restored again, Han Li finally breathed a sigh of relief.
At this moment, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, he was still too far behind. Look at his master, he has not been able to use his magic power until now, and he can be safe and sound just by relying on his tyrannical body.
In this regard, even Xu Qingcheng couldn't do it. There was unconcealable envy and curiosity in his eyes when he looked at Mo Juren.
Yes, she had long been interested in the terrifying body of the person in front of her, and even asked about it more than once. Unfortunately, the other person just smiled and said nothing every time, with no intention of telling her.
Naturally, she was a little angry, but more importantly, she was depressed. This guy is too stingy. His own destiny is in his hands. He is not an outsider. How can he be so stingy?
There are many secret techniques for cultivating the body in the world of immortality, and she knows several of them herself. However, even those legendary top body refining techniques do not seem to be of such terrifying intensity?
When she was on Miaoyin Island, she had sparred with the opponent many times. Even with the most powerful magic weapon in her hand, it was difficult to break through the opponent's defense in a short period of time.
What a monster!
She had complained like this more than once, but it did not hinder the envy in her heart. If she could have such a powerful body, she wouldn't mind being a monster.
The temperature is too high, making the whole world feel turbid.
Mo Juren looked at the sky, and there was a red sun hanging above it. He didn't know how these ancient monks did it?
He turned around and looked around carefully again. What he saw were piles of rocks and some straight strange trees that were half as tall as a man. There was no way to go.
This aroused his interest. It is not simple that there are still plants growing in such a hot environment. These strange trees, and even the strange weeds emitting a strange red light in front of his sight, may have already reached the fire attribute.
The level of spiritual grass.
Of course, none of the monks who entered here paid attention to this. Maybe these spiritual herbs are not of great value, right?
"This is the Fire Origin Tree, a good fire-attribute spiritual plant. I didn't expect it to exist here." But at this moment, Xu Qingcheng on the side suddenly said.
"Do you know this tree?" Not only Mo Juren, but Han Li also turned around to look. He was the most interested in the special spiritual grass.
"These are just ordinary fire-attribute spiritual plants. They are widely distributed in quantity. Including the previous 'Fire Sword Grass', they are only used when refining some ordinary fire-attribute elixirs, and their value is not high." Xu Qingcheng said slightly.
He nodded and explained.
However, Mo Juren and Han Li had strange expressions after hearing this. The extremely wide distribution mentioned by the other party must be referring to the ancient times, but this may not necessarily be the case now.
At least Mo Juren has never heard of these two spiritual plants, and there are no relevant records in the books about spiritual plants. It can be seen that these things are most likely extinct.
After thinking about this, Han Li started digging trees without saying a word. Then he walked to the front and dug up a lot of the 'Fire Sword Grass' that exuded a strange red light.
This scene immediately made Xu Qingcheng dumbfounded.
"These two kinds of spiritual plants are difficult to cultivate. They must grow in such an extreme environment that contains abundant fire. Besides, there is no need to cultivate them specially..."
Speaking of this, she suddenly paused, then reacted and said,
"Should these two kinds of spiritual plants outside be extinct?"
"Absolutely, but maybe someone is interested in bringing it out for some cultivation, but I've never heard of it." Mo Juren nodded.
"How can it be so easy to cultivate? Besides, it's of little value." Xu Qingcheng shook her head slightly, but she obviously had no intention of collecting it.
But Mo Juren doesn't mind it. Every time the resources needed to refine bloodline, there will always be some weird species, especially this kind of species that has long been extinct, so it is absolutely necessary to be prepared.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Therefore, he also joined the ranks of mining. He didn't get too much, just enough. Han Li had the same idea. Don't say it's low value, what if you can use it sometime? There's nothing wrong with collecting some, anyway.
It’s also a matter of hand.
After a delay, the three of them determined the direction and continued moving forward.
Whether it is the lava road or another mysterious crystal road, they are all tests set by Xutian Palace. There are naturally rules in them. Once violated, after all, you will receive terrible punishment.
For some monks who have done their homework in advance and understand the actual situation, they naturally do not dare to mess around in the slightest.
However, there are always those who are lucky, or in other words, those who do not know anything and try rashly without knowing anything. In the end, they can only live or die.
For example, it is not possible to fly here, and you can only cross many difficulties and dangers on foot. There are always some people who do not believe in evil, so they thought that flying lower would not be a problem, but they were directly cut into charcoal by lightning.
Even if you follow the rules, it does not mean that you are foolproof. On the contrary, the subsequent tests will be more difficult than the last, and only a few can really persevere.
The first level is a large grassland, which contains countless "Fire Sword Grass". Not only does it have a terrifying high temperature, it is also as sharp as a sword. If you are not careful, you will be scratched.
This level is okay, most people can pass it smoothly. However, the second level is different. It turns out to be a vast lava swamp with dark pits filled with lava everywhere, which is extremely dangerous.
.
Unlike Mo Juren and Xu Qingcheng, who were taking a leisurely stroll in the garden, Han Li was a little frightened. If the first two had not warned him in time, he would probably have fallen in.
After finally crossing the lava swamp, the three of them entered a strange forest. There were a lot of fire-attribute monsters living here. When outsiders came in, they would naturally be attacked.
……
After the screening of these three levels, some monks who were not strong enough but had a sense of luck were basically doomed, and only some of them actually passed smoothly.
Even so, it is far from over. The endless black desert outside the strange forest is the real terror.
Black sand, black dunes, everything that hits the eye is black, giving people an extremely depressing feeling.
