Before Liu Ming understood what was going on, a strong suction force suddenly emerged from the yellow crystal bead, swallowing up the black real fire wrapped in it.
His face really turned pale with shock, and he shouted in a low voice. He closed his hands and immediately separated them. Two black light beams as thick as arms shot out at the same time and poured into the crystal beads.
The yellow crystal bead buzzed, and the light it emitted shrank a little, but it was still flashing wildly and spiritually. The whole body became translucent, and a faint yellow light inside was spinning crazily.
Faced with this situation, Liu Ming did not dare to be negligent at all. He turned his hands like wheels, and a series of magic formulas of various colors were shot out one after another. He finally slowed down the rotation speed of the yellow light in the crystal bead by a few points, but it was still basically impossible.
Can't stop.
When Liu Ming saw this, he secretly complained in his heart.
He originally planned to try to refine this yellow crystal bead into a semi-finished "Mountain and River Pearl" with a little sacrifice, but for some unknown reason, the one yuan of heavy water in the heavy water bead seemed to ignite a volcano as soon as it came into contact with the embryo of the magic weapon.
, the various materials inside the bead were completely smelted in an instant...
Nowadays, the Mountain and River Pearl is no longer a semi-finished product, but has begun to move directly towards the finished product.
Moreover, the sacrificial refining cannot be stopped. If it is forcibly terminated, all the materials in the bead will be scrapped.
However, the amount of one yuan of heavy water contained in two heavy water beads is too small. If this continues, the chance of final success will naturally be pitiful.
Liu Ming smiled bitterly. He finally understood what a dilemma was.
All spiritual materials are used to refine magic weapons. The most difficult thing is how to balance the spirituality of each material and merge them into one without collapsing.
Especially since the current mountain and river beads lack a large amount of heavy water as a spiritual material, it is even more difficult.
"Spirituality... By the way, the Spirit-nurturing Cauldron!"
Liu Ming was secretly anxious, but suddenly his mind brightened, and he remembered the Spirit-nurturing Cauldron he had just obtained.
According to Ye Zong of the Tiangong Sect, this treasure comes from the ancient weapon refining sect. Its important function is to add spirituality to the spiritual weapons and magic weapons, which should be helpful to the current situation.
And from what Lan Si said, the Jiying Tu was of great use in cultivating the Lingding Cauldron, and maybe it was also for these twelve mountain and river beads.
Thinking of this, he immediately stopped hesitating. In a flash of silver light, a small silver cauldron appeared in front of him.
Liu Ming immediately used his multi-purpose magical power, and allocated half of his mental power to continue to refine the Mountain and River Pearl. At the same time, he opened his mouth and spat out a stream of black light, and the other half of his mental power began to quickly refine the Spirit-nurturing Cauldron in front of him.
The Spirit-nurturing Cauldron slowly glowed with silver light, and densely packed runes emerged one after another, and began to flash brightly and dimly, as if the entire small cauldron suddenly became a living thing.
After half a day of this, there was a soft "chi-la" sound, and a stream of silver filaments suddenly erupted from the mouth of the tripod, automatically wrapping around the yellow crystal beads in front of it.
The yellow light that was violently rolling inside the yellow crystal bead finally slowly subsided!
Liu Ming could faintly feel that the spirituality of various spiritual materials that had been violently colliding inside the crystal bead had a tendency to merge together.
"This Spirit-nurturing Cauldron is really useful. I have only refined it a little, but I am afraid that even one-tenth of the effectiveness of this treasured cauldron has not been exerted. It is indeed a treasure of the ancient weapon refining sect!" Liu Ming was ecstatic in his heart and hurriedly followed the instructions.
Following the method recorded on the jade slip, I carefully began to practice the ritual again.
However, under the current circumstances, in order not to cause another mutation within the bead, its refining speed is ten times slower than before.
"Master..." At this moment, Xie'er walked in from the door of the stone room and was shocked to see the scene in front of him.
"Xie'er, you immediately sneak back to the entrance of the ruins and erase as many traces of the fighting there as possible. Also, leave some messy traces in the swamp space in the ruins to make it look like it was looted.
In this empty scene, try not to let anyone notice the existence of this place." Liu Ming ordered while cautiously casting a spell.
To complete the current Mountain and River Pearl Sacrifice, it would take not just a few days, but more than ten days to complete it. He estimated that it would take at least several months.
Although the palace here is secretive and blocked by restrictions, there is still no guarantee that it will not be noticed.
"I understand, Master!" Xie'er nodded quickly upon hearing this, then flashed and flew towards the outside of the palace.
"Fei'er, come out too." Liu Ming's heart moved. He freed up a hand and patted the soul-nurturing bag on his waist. A ball of black air flew out and turned into a green-robed child.
Childlike appearance.
"Master, you finally remembered me!" Fei'er called out in a sweet voice.
"Fei'er, this is the formation disk of the Pudu Formation. I have taught you how to set up the formation. You go and set up the formation to wrap up the entire palace to isolate the spiritual energy fluctuations here and prevent them from spreading outside.
Liu Ming said, raising one hand, the formation flag of the Pudu Formation appeared and fell to the ground.
"Don't worry, Master!"
Fei'er agreed, leaned down and picked up the formation flag formation disk on the ground, and walked out quickly without being messy like usual. Although he was in the soul nourishing bag, he still understood the current situation.
After giving these instructions, Liu Ming calmed down a little, took out a pill and drank it, and placed a few high-grade spiritual stones close to his body to replenish his magic power at any time.
After refining for a long time, the consumption and replenishment of mana are extremely important things. Fortunately, he never lacks elixirs to restore mana.
Liu Ming slowly exhaled, calmed down his mind, muttered something in his mouth, and played a series of spells into the mountain and river beads with his fingers.
…
Just when Liu Ming started refining the Mountain and River Pearl, in the mid-air thousands of miles away from the ruins, a brilliant white starlight flew past extremely quickly, with a long tail behind it, like a streak across the sky.
Brilliant shooting star.
The starlight suddenly paused slightly in mid-air, then fell straight down, landing in front of two straight peaks with peaks about a thousand feet high.
The starlight slowly dispersed, revealing the figure of a young man wearing a golden loose robe, it was Jin Tianci.
After he stood firm, he looked towards the two mountain peaks with a flickering gaze.
In terms of the size of the peaks, there is nothing unusual about these two peaks. However, one of the two peaks is extremely silvery white. Most of the peaks are covered with a layer of crystal ice and snow, making it extremely cold nearby.
The other mountain peak is a bright purple one, covered with a kind of maple-like forest tree, and the leaves are all glowing with a strange purple light.
The two peaks were only about ten miles apart. In the middle was a flat valley, covered with dense trees. At this moment, a silver light flickered in the valley, and soon disappeared again.
Jin Tianci's eyes flashed, and his figure moved forward as he galloped away.
When his body approached the bottom of the valley, the surrounding void suddenly appeared with faint ripples, and Jin Tianci's body quickly submerged into it and disappeared.
The fluctuations in the void slowly disappeared, and everything returned to calm.
The scenery in front of Jin Tianci suddenly changed, and he appeared in a stone forest. A hemispherical cyan light curtain with a radius of several hundred feet enveloped the stone forest.
At this moment, there were more than ten figures standing or sitting in the stone forest. They were disciples from the Taiqing Sect, as well as several monks from other sects, including Sister Ouyang.
"Senior Brother Jin, you're finally here. It's so hard for us to wait!" When Qiu Longzi saw the visitor, he strode over with great joy and said in a loud voice.
When the other disciples saw Jin Tianci appear, they all looked relieved.
The ruins of the upper realm are really too cruel for monks like them in the crystallization stage.
"Junior Brother Qiu, how did you get here? A few days ago, I returned to my previous temporary residence. It was already in ruins. It took me a lot of time to find this place according to the marks you left along the way. But something happened
What's the matter?" Jin Tianci glanced around and asked with a twinkle in his eye.
"Alas, we were unlucky. Two days after you left, Senior Brother Jin, a group of foreign monks discovered us somehow. They had a fierce battle and had to change our location. Two junior brothers died on the spot." Qiu Longzi's face.
The smile faded and he said a little seriously.
"The ruins here are already full of dangers, so Junior Brother Qiu doesn't have to blame himself too much." Jin Tianci also sighed after hearing this.
"Senior Brother Jin!" While Jin Tianci and Qiu Longzi were talking, two people came out of the crowd and saluted Jin Tianci. Surprisingly, they were Luo Tiancheng and Wen Sheng.
"Okay, I'll be relieved if you two are safe and sound." Jin Tianci nodded when he saw the two of them.
"Junior Brother Luo and Junior Brother Wen found here yesterday. I have heard from them that you were attacked by the wild monster clan." Qiu Longzi said slowly.
"Now that the one-year period is almost half over, judging from past records, people from various factions may start to act foolishly." Jin Tianci nodded thoughtfully and said in a deep voice.
.
"Senior Brother Jin is right. Nowadays, the ruins of the upper world are becoming more and more dangerous." Qiu Longzi glanced at the remaining disciples of the Taiqing Sect and said with deep approval.
"By the way, is there any information about Junior Brother Liu?" Jin Tianci suddenly asked.
"No, we have been here for more than ten days, and no one else has been here except you three." Hearing this, Qiu Longzi said with a twinkle in his eye.
Hearing this, Jin Tianci frowned.
"Senior Brother Jin, don't worry too much. It is said that Junior Brother Liu is very powerful, and I heard from Junior Brother Luo and Junior Brother Wen that when faced with the attack of the demon monks, you escaped separately. Maybe Junior Brother Liu got rid of those who were chasing him.
Finally, I'm still on the road now and haven't found this place yet." Qiu Longzi said with a smile.
"I hope so." Jin Tianci said with a sigh in his heart.
When everyone dispersed and fled, he could see clearly that the one chasing Liu Ming was another True Pill Demon Clan. Although Liu Ming was extremely powerful, he still had no idea whether he could escape from the Shadow Wolf Clan monk who was known for his speed.
not sure.
In the following time, Jin Tianci asked some general questions about everyone's situation. After everyone gathered around for a while, they quickly dispersed and went to meditate and adjust their breath.
"Senior Brother Jin, what should we do next?" Qiu Longzi and Jin Tianci walked aside and started discussing.
