Mo Zidu's arrival and departure were very low-key and did not cause too much commotion.
Cao Chuan, who had closed the door of Liulic Pavilion, was naturally not disturbed. However, Wang Youliang often came to bother him with wine, and he never left Liu Chen. He was obviously determined to poach Cao Chuan away from Wu Suowei's family.
.
But Cao Chuan had no interest in drinking and chatting with Wang Youliang anymore, because he found out from the book he bought from the Secret Treasure Pavilion that he was currently in a deep forest only a few dozen miles away from Tianlingyuan.
The most desired piece of fire.
It's just that the existence of fire is extremely mysterious, and no one has found it for thousands of years, so not many people remember that there is still fire in the deep forest.
"It's an advantage for me."
After asking around for information, he discovered that no one had been to that deep forest for hundreds of years. Cao Chuan, who was secretly happy, immediately went to see Wu Suowei and temporarily left Tianlingyuan on the pretext that he wanted to go out to practice.
The first step of the plan went very smoothly. Wu Suowei didn't even give any instructions. He just gave Cao Chuan a storage bag and told Cao Chuan to go back quickly.
Unexpectedly, Cao Chuan, who did not expect Wu Suowei to be so relieved about him, stopped ink-marking and secretly went to the dock at night, and temporarily left Tianlingyuan in the small boat he came in.
After leaving Tianlingyuan, according to the map in the book, Cao Chuan immediately used the immortal steps with all his strength, shortening the dozens of miles under his feet to a few hours at the fastest speed.
After taking another pill to restore his depleted spiritual energy, Cao Chuan saw that the deep forest in front of him was indeed deserted and quiet, and then he raised his feet and walked towards the direction indicated on the map.
Soon Cao Chuan found the destination marked on the map.
According to the description in the book, the first monk who discovered that there was fire here sensed the breath of fire from this location.
But looking around, Cao Chuan, who had a panoramic view of everything, saw nothing except flowers, plants and trees, not even the smell of fire that should be there more or less.
This place looks like an extremely ordinary forest. How could there be any kind of fire?
But just when Cao Chuan was wondering whether the fire here was because someone else had taken advantage of it, Mu Qingqiu's voice suddenly came from the depths of the sea of consciousness.
"Little guy, do you suspect that there is no fire here at all? Or maybe the fire here has been taken away by others?"
"That's true." Cao Chuan nodded and replied, "But why did you suddenly make a sound, Senior Mu? Is there something weird in this forest?"
But Cao Chuan knew very well that Mu Qingqiu would never suddenly speak to tease him when there was nothing important. Now that she suddenly mentioned what she was thinking, it must be that there was something unknown in the woods he was in.
The secret, at least, will be related to Tinder.
So Cao Chuan calmed down and observed the woods carefully.
Finally, before Mu Qingqiu could say anything to remind him, his eyes lit up as he was about to give up. Then he squatted down, grabbed a handful of soil and said in a deep voice, "No wonder I always feel that this place is a bit strange. It turns out this is this forest."
The soil quality here is different from that in other places, and it’s not because of excess spiritual power, but because the spiritual power here is always being drawn away by something..."
"Could it be fire?"
Cao Chuan's eyes widened and he quickly grabbed another handful of soil and analyzed it carefully.
At this time, Mu Qingqiu's bored voice said: "Your feeling is correct. The spiritual power here is indeed being continuously absorbed by the fire. However, because the power of the fire is too weak, it is difficult for people to detect the abnormality here.
, even if they found it, they would just think that the soil quality here is too poor, and they would never think that it was caused by fire."
"Since fire does exist, why can't I feel the breath of fire?" Cao Chuan asked.
"It's very simple. The fire spiritual power that can be called fire is a spiritual or divine thing that was born and raised in the earth. Therefore, fire has been spiritual since its birth. Although it is not very intelligent, it also knows how to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages."
Mu Qingqiu explained: "So fire generally chooses to hide itself. In addition, fire is a product of heaven and earth, so few people can find fire that is deliberately hidden, but it is not impossible to find it."
As soon as he finished speaking, Mu Qingqiu, who had been recuperating in the depths of the sea of consciousness during this period, suddenly mobilized the power of his soul and actually used the Void Heart Sword to slash at the thin-looking sapling in front of Cao Chuan.
The moment the sword energy was about to strike, Cao Chuan's eyes widened with an expression of disbelief.
It turned out that just when the sword energy was about to cut the sapling in half, the sapling actually turned into a lotus-shaped flame in a burst of weak blue flames, which was exactly the same as the green lotuses in the Qinglian Secret Realm.
They look somewhat similar.
Mu Qingqiu continued: "You are lucky. This fire is called Jade Spiritual Flame, and it ranks among the best among many top-quality fires. Although it looks a little weaker, if it can be absorbed and refined with the Chaos Immortality Art, it will be very powerful for you.
It will also be of great benefit to you.”
"And when the fire is weak, it happens to be absorbed and refined. Otherwise, when it regains its strength, there will be no chance to keep it in the bag."
Under Mu Qingqiu's explanation and urging, Cao Chuan suppressed the curiosity in his heart and no longer observed the sapphire spiritual flame in front of him that seemed to be extinguished at any time. Instead, he directly activated the Chaos Immortality Art and at the same time drove the rising sun golden black flame to burn the sapphire flame.
The spiritual flames surrounded it, and then gradually devoured and refined it.
Although I don't know why the Jade Spiritual Flame became so weak, it was just right for Cao Chuan.
It was precisely because of the weakness of the Jade Spiritual Flame that Cao Chuan was able to absorb and refine it without any hindrance.
The process of absorption and refining went very smoothly, with no resistance from the fire.
When the Immortal Chaos Art had completely merged the aura of the sapphire spirit flames with the golden black flames of the rising sun, Cao Chuan immediately decorated himself.
Then he discovered that a green flame-shaped leaf began to grow on the Chaos Divine Tree deep in his Dantian.
Although it has not fully grown yet, it can already be seen that this leaf is related to the sapphire spiritual flame.
But it's not that simple to completely refine fire.
Just when Cao Chuan thought that this was the end, he suddenly felt a sharp pain that only felt when being burned by fire. He couldn't react for a moment and immediately knelt down on his knees, his whole body covered with green flames.
The ground was constantly struggling.
Mu Qingqiu's helpless voice also sounded at this time: "I forgot to tell you that when the fire is in danger, it will immediately explode with all its power to protect itself, so before the power of the fire is exhausted, you must endure it first.
Bar."
"Senior Mu...if you didn't tell me earlier..."
"ah!"
With a cry of pain, Cao Chuan's eyes were red, his lips and teeth were clenched, and he changed from lying down to sitting.
