After two months of non-stop refining, the shape of the Golden Toad Furnace has become more like a furnace.
However, two months of non-stop refining had brought Gu Zheng's true fire power to a point where it was about to be exhausted.
"You two, now cook a fire spiritual food for me."
Gu Zheng's voice suddenly came to mind, which made Qiao Bai and Xu Ran overjoyed.
"Master, is everything going well?"
While Qiao Bai was asking, he had already taken out the ingredients for cooking fire food cultivation. He and Xu Ran had already packed these ingredients and were waiting for Gu Zheng to cook them when he needed them.
"Very good, what about you?" Gu Zheng asked.
"In the past two months, Xu Ran and I have basically been practicing. After today's competition, we will relax a little." Qiao Bai said with a smile.
"It's good to relax, but don't drink too much." Gu Zheng said.
"I understand, Master."
Qiao Bai responded, and then asked: "Master, several months have passed. Can Xu Ran and I take food repair?"
"You are now in the late stage of returning to the void, so don't take it for food cultivation to avoid any big changes."
Gu Zheng's voice paused, and then he said: "As for that, if you want to take food repair, just take it!"
"Sir, this is a fantasy formation. Will the food cultivator's plundering of immortal essence cause any bad changes?" Xu Ran asked.
"Yes, but it won't be a big change."
Gu Zheng didn't say much about the variables, he still left the choice to Xu Ran.
Xu Ran glanced at Qiao Bai, obviously asking for his opinion. Qiao Bai shrugged and left the choice to Xu Ran.
"Well, after I cook the fire spirit food for my husband, I will cook the energy-increasing food for myself. If there are any changes at that time, the two of us will face it together!" Xu Ran said to Qiao Bai.
"Okay, since it's not a big variable, I also want to see what the variable is." Qiao Bai's eyes were filled with fighting spirit.
The fire spirit food master Xu Ran cooks it, and the pot is cooked when one stick of incense is used, and the grade is middle grade.
Fire spirit food cultivation is a relatively special food cultivation. Its food cultivation characteristics are most effective for the source of the true fire of one's life, but it will not cause the plundering of immortal energy like taking the energy-enhancing food cultivation.

After Gu Zheng took the Fire Spiritual Food Cultivation, his nearly depleted true fire power was well replenished, and he was able to refining the Golden Toad Furnace non-stop for two months.
After chatting with Qiao Bai and Xu Ran for a while, Gu Zheng said that he wanted to enter the state of closing the five senses, so Qiao Bai and Xu Ran returned to the other side of the pool.
Without saying anything else, Xu Ran and Qiao Bai immediately began to set up the Yuan Juan Array. Since they had to take Yuan Zeng Food Cultivation, the existence of the Yuan Juan Array could maximize their benefits.
However, it is not easy to collect the materials for setting up the Yuan Juan Array. The Yuan Juan Array jointly arranged by Xu Ran and Qiao Bai is only at the intermediate level.
Although the level of the Juyuan Array is only intermediate, it still takes two days to gather the full amount of Immortal Yuan. Moreover, since the Immortal Yuan here is originally richer than in the prehistoric era, and there is an Intermediate Yuan Judging Array, it is necessary that this
After taking the top-grade Yuan-increasing food repair for the first time, the state will definitely reach a point very close to the middle stage of returning to void, and such an improvement speed is also very terrifying.
The Yuan Gathering Formation has been set up, and the immortal essence from the world has begun to flow into the Yuan Gathering Formation. This is a change that can be seen with the naked eye, but it is not as terrifying as the food cultivator's ability to plunder the immortal essence.
"Squeak!"
The change of the immortal essence in the air is a very sensitive matter for immortal cultivators or monsters who can use the immortal essence. The Yuan Gathering Formation had just started to operate when strange screams came from the mountain.
"It sounded like a monkey."
Qiao Bai raised his head and looked above the waterfall, but found nothing unusual.
"I've been at the waterhole all this time, and I haven't flown to the top of the mountain to have a look. I don't know what the scene will be like there."
Almost as soon as Xu Ran's words fell to the ground, huge boulders began to fall from the top of the mountain. There were a lot of these falling boulders. It was obvious that they did not fall off the mountain, but were dropped by something.
It was just an ordinary boulder. Qiao Bai and Xu Ran didn't take it lightly. They didn't even raise their hands. The falling boulders hit the colorless barrier created by the immortal formation and fell to pieces.
.
The boulders continued to fall for about two minutes.
"Let me go up and have a look!" Qiao Bai said, looking at the waterfall.
"Go ahead! It's just a huge boulder thrown down. The things on it shouldn't be very strong, so I won't go with you. I'll stay here just in case something unexpected happens." Xu Ran said.
Qiao Bai nodded to Xu Ran, and after walking out of the immortal formation, he immediately stood up and flew towards the top of the cliff.
The scenery on the top of the mountain is very beautiful. The mountain springs that form waterfalls first form pools one after another on top, and then flow down to form waterfalls.
In addition to the pools with very clear water, there are also many pine-like trees growing on the edge of the top of the mountain. These large trees are very stylish and look very similar to the welcoming pine.
It's a pity that although there are clouds and mist here, there is no sunrise or sunset. If there is, take a jar of fairy wine, lie on a tree on the edge of the cliff, and watch it leisurely as the mountain wind blows.
Watching the sunrise and sunset is also a pleasant thing to think about.
What makes Qiao Bai feel comfortable is that there are actually monsters doing it. They are bigger than dogs, with golden hair, and look like squirrels. They are lying on the trees on the edge of the cliff.
Nibbling on the pine nut-like fruit that can be easily picked from the tree.
"Judging from the smell, these pine-nut-like things are of high-quality ingredients, and their combined weight weighs a thousand kilograms. There are twenty-five of these squirrel-like guys, and they are all made of rare metals.
Sexual monsters. Although I don’t know what the state of these squirrel monsters is, Master should have discovered them when he came here to get water."
Qiao Bai smiled in his heart, he felt that this was the experience left to them by the ancient struggle.
Indeed, when Gu Zheng went up the mountain to collect water before, he had already discovered pine nut-like ingredients and squirrel-like monsters. However, these squirrel-like monsters were very clever and did not dare to do anything to him. He
So they weren't hunted.
Gu Zheng originally thought that when he was 'concentrating on refining' the Golden Toad Furnace, Qiao Bai and Xu Ran would explore the entire Hanging Mountain, but who would have thought that these two people were too contented, and it was not until now that Qiao Bai discovered
The existence of these squirrel monsters.
Qiao Bai saw the squirrel monster, and the squirrel monster also saw Qiao Bai, but the look in their eyes when they saw Qiao Bai was completely different from the look in their eyes when they saw Gu Zheng! The look in their eyes when they saw Gu Zheng was fear.
Qiao Bai's eyes were filled with contempt.
Qiao Bai naturally saw the contempt from the squirrel monsters. With a frown, he directed the energy of the world to press against the squirrel monsters.
"Squeak!"
The squirrel monsters screamed strangely, and each squirrel monster's body surface was surrounded by a layer of golden light. A more powerful energy from heaven and earth suddenly pressed back towards Qiao Bai.
"It's this kind of monster again!"
Qiao Bai smiled. He didn't expect that these squirrel monsters were the kind of monsters that could only act together. Moreover, the pressure of the energy of heaven and earth caused by the joint action was just one step ahead of him. For Qiao Bai, this was not
What a strong opponent.
The slightly superior pressure of the energy of heaven and earth could not immobilize Qiao Bai. Under the vibration of the true water spirit in his body, water arrows were immediately shot at the squirrel monsters in the surrounding pool.
"Squeak!"
The squirrel monsters screamed strangely to avoid the water arrows, and the pressure of the energy of heaven and earth they exerted on Qiao Bai ended.
However, being forced to end the oppression of Qiao Bai by the energy of heaven and earth does not mean that these squirrel monsters have no other means! Under the control of the squirrel monsters, the rock on the ground turned into a squirrel three feet tall.
Weird, he pounced towards Qiao Bai in the air.
Qiao Bai wanted to laugh, the squirrel monster could actually use the same trick that the turtle monster had used before! However, the smile that just appeared on Qiao Bai's face froze because he discovered that the stone squirrel monster could also emit the energy similar to that of heaven and earth.
The oppressive pressure made his body fall towards the top of the mountain uncontrollably!
The pressure brought by the stone squirrel monster to Qiao Bai was more powerful than the pressure from the energy of the world that the squirrel monsters jointly brought to Qiao Bai. After all, Qiao Bai's body could still withstand the pressure from the energy of the world and the world from the squirrel monsters.
Damn, now he is really falling from the sky when he can't hold it anymore.
"Whoosh!"
During the fall, Qiao Bai slashed his sword at the stone squirrel monster. The sword energy fell on the stone squirrel monster, leaving only a white mark.
At this point, Qiao Bai fully understood that these squirrel monsters were more powerful than the original turtle monsters. If he was the only one, let alone trying to defeat these squirrel monsters, he would not be lucky here.
"Sure!"
Qiao Bai didn't dare to be too embarrassed and immediately called Xu Ran under the waterfall.
"Peng!"
Just when Qiao Bai called Xu Ran, his body couldn't withstand the pressure and fell on the top of the mountain, and his legs were inserted into the rock due to the pressure.
"Squeak!"
The squirrel monsters screamed again, and the stones beside Qiao Bai's legs turned into a pile of things that looked like squirrel claws, and they hugged Qiao Bai's legs tightly.
Above is a stone squirrel monster that is about to crush the top of Mount Tai. His legs are inserted into the rock, and they are hugged by a pile of hateful stone claws. Qiao Bai cannot move. The situation looks very dangerous.
"The Raging Sea Tide!"
Qiao Bai roared loudly, and the spirit of the true water in his body was shaken, and he activated the immortal skills taught to him by Gu Zheng.
I saw a huge current rushing out of the pool and slamming into the stone squirrel monster that was about to crush Mount Qiaobaitai.
The 'Raging Sea Tide' is a very impressive magical skill. When the torrent knocked the stone squirrel monster off the cliff, it also transformed into a water dragon.
"Squeak!"
The squirrel monsters screamed again. What Qiao Bai didn't expect was that the rocks on the ground turned into a big guy again amidst their weird screams. However, this big guy was smaller than the stone squirrel monster.
It looked like the kind of turtle monster Qiao Bai and the others had encountered before.
“Swish swish swish!”
As soon as the turtle monster appeared, it immediately let the rocks on its back fly towards the water dragon in the air.
Qiao Bai was not like Gu Zheng. The Five Elements Immortal Magic Dragon Transformation had the ability to fight independently. The water dragon he transformed had to be controlled by him to exert its power. So, the water dragon and the turtle monster fought together.
At the same time, in mid-air on the mountainside, Xu Ran, who came to the rescue, was entangled by the stone squirrel monster.
"Peng!"
There was a loud noise, and suddenly the squirrel monster flew away with a claw. Although the magical shield on the body was broken, fortunately, he was not injured.
Concerned about Qiao Bai's safety on the top of the mountain, Xu Ran did not dare to tangle with the stone squirrel monster anymore. He slashed a dazzling sword at the stone squirrel monster. This was the domineering 'Crazy Crazy Knife'.
The sword light seemed slow, but the stone squirrel monster still couldn't dodge it. After being hit by the knife, its body paused in the void for a moment, and then turned into a pile of rubble and fell.
"Wow!"
After receiving the backlash from the 'Crazy Crazy Knife', Xu Ran opened his mouth and vomited out a stream of blood. His reaction was exactly the same as that of the squirrel monsters on the top of the mountain. Those squirrel monsters also vomited blood!
The squirrel monsters vomited blood, not because they were injured by Qiao Bai. They were different from the turtle monsters that Qiao Bai and Xu Ran had encountered before. The turtle monsters were suitable for controlling stone men, and it didn't matter even if they were scattered. However, they worked together to control them.
Once the stone monsters are scattered, they also need to be counterattacked!
The squirrel monsters that vomited blood panicked, and their reaction of running away was very similar to that of the turtle monster.
Without the control of the squirrel monster, the stone turtle monster that was still entangled with Qiao Bai's water dragon immediately turned into rocks on the ground. The stone claws that originally hugged Qiao Bai's legs also immediately disintegrated.
"Where to escape!"
Qiao Bai shouted, and the pool water turned into water arrows, shooting towards the escaping squirrel monsters.
At this time, Qiao Bai was very angry. He understood from the blood vomiting of the squirrel monsters that these squirrel monsters must have suffered backlash because the stone squirrel monsters were destroyed. And if they could destroy the stone squirrel monsters so quickly, then they must
He used the 'Crazy Crazy Sword' that could backfire on him.
The reaction of the squirrel monsters was very sensitive. The water arrows that Qiao Bai turned into the pond water did not hit a few of them at all. Moreover, even if a few were hit by the water arrows, the metallic monsters have strong defenses.
This level of damage is not enough to kill them.
"Are you okay!"
Xu Ran had already flown to the top of the mountain. He didn't even bother to wipe the blood on his lips and asked about Qiao Bai's safety first.
"Fortunately, hurry up and adjust your breathing!"
Qiao Bai directed a sword energy at an injured squirrel monster, splitting the squirrel monster's body into two halves.
Seeing that Qiao Bai was fine, Xu Ran didn't dare to show off, and quickly took the time to adjust the backlash he received from using the 'Crazy Crazy Knife'.
Xu Ran was adjusting his breath, while Qiao Bai was chasing the squirrel monster.
The reaction of the squirrel monsters was really as if they were defeated. They had no morale to resist at all. In the end, they were knocked down one by one by Qiao Bai.
Twenty-five squirrel monsters, twenty-five rare metallic inner elixirs, and a thousand pounds of high-quality pine nuts. These harvests can be said to be very rich, but Qiao Bai is not happy at all. It is because of this time
Things had a backlash, and he deeply felt his own lack of strength.
"Don't be so downcast. My backlash is nothing. It will be fine in two days." Xu Ran comforted Qiao Bai.
"Master said that even if there are variables, they won't be big variables. I thought that even if such variables appeared, the two of us should be able to deal with them easily. But who would have thought that it wouldn't take long before the Immortal Yuan was extracted from the Juyuan Formation?
When something like this happened, I almost suffered a big loss, and you also suffered a backlash because of it." Qiao Bai smiled bitterly.
"It doesn't matter, this is just an experience!" Xu Ran shrugged and smiled.
"You are quite reasonable!"
Qiao Bai rolled his eyes at Xu Ran: "This is the time when the Juyuan Formation has just extracted the immortal essence. I don't know what will happen next, let alone what will happen after you take the Yuan-increasing Food Cultivation, and the crazy plundering of the immortal essence will happen."
!So I think it’s better to stop the Juyuan Formation and wait until you recover from your injuries before opening it again.”
After hearing what Qiao Bai said, Xu Ran nodded and said: "It's a good idea to stop the Juyuan Formation first. Let's wait until I recover from my injury. At that time, let's take a good look at the Hanging Mountain.
Let’s see if there’s anything else on the mountain that could threaten us.”
"That's what I mean too."
Qiao Bai nodded, and then said: "Okay, you adjust your breath, I will seize the time to practice, and strive to let Shuilong fight independently as soon as possible, so that it can also increase its strength."
Although 'Raging Sea Frenzy' was learned by Qiao Bai through the power of Divine Mind, 'Raging Sea Frenzy' is the collective name for a set of water-based immortal waters. Gu Zheng also learned it when he was taught 'Raging Sea Frenzy' by Divine Mind.
It is not comprehensive. There are some magical things in it that need to be practiced or comprehended in the future before they can be truly perfected! For example, if the water dragon can fight independently, whether Qiao Bai can master it depends on it.
Regardless of whether he works hard or not, he also needs some understanding.
Qiao Bai and Xu Ran fell into silence, while Gu Zheng on the other side was laughing in his heart. The barrier that Qiao Bai and Xu Ran put up to isolate the sound was of no use to him.
For Gu Zheng, Qiao Bai and Xu Ran were defeated, which was something he really wanted to see. There would be no danger to his life if he was defeated by his side, but if he was defeated by others in the future, there would be danger.
It's hard to say if it's not life-threatening.
Two days passed quickly, and Xu Ran's internal injuries had recovered. He and Qiao Bai began to explore Hanging Mountain.
There are three kinds of monsters on Xuankong Mountain, but these three monsters are not powerful. They did not pose any threat to Qiao Bai and Xu Ran. They could only offer them inner elixirs.
Xuankong Mountain has been thoroughly explored, the stopped Yuan Yuan Formation was started again, and the immortal essence also began to gather into the Yuan Yuan Formation.
Qiao Bai and Xu Ran were on guard, and they didn't know what changes would come.
Nearly a day has passed, and no changes have occurred. The immortal energy condensed in the Yuan Gathering Formation has already exceeded half, and it will be fully accumulated in another day.
"Today was quite peaceful." Qiao Bai said.
"It won't be so peaceful tomorrow."
Xu Ran's eyes looked outside the Xuankong Mountain.
"Oh? What do you say?" Qiao Bai asked.
"I have a hunch from the sixth consciousness that the operation of the Yuan Gathering Formation will attract some monsters." Xu Ran said.
