After the formation was activated, the energy at the intersection of the fire veins accumulated more and more, making it gradually more and more difficult for the Thousand Stars Formation to suppress it from being easy before.
In addition to using the Three Purities True Yuan to channel the energy of Tai Chi, Ning Chen also suppressed it with the mysterious energy of the earth, weakened the evil energy of ice, and tried his best to control the energy at the intersection from leaking or exploding.
During this period, Ning Chen used all his strength to use his skills, and his cultivation in the middle stage of Yuan Condensation was rapidly stable, which was many times faster than the hard training in seclusion.
"Sure enough, you can never leave your fists without leaving your hands, and you can never leave your mouth when singing. You still need to practice more to do anything."
In addition, there are many unexpected gains.
The energy at the intersection accumulated more and more, creating an inexplicable attraction. Many high-end materials flowed here along with the sea of fire and lava. Ning Chen collected a large amount of materials almost easily, and many pieces of materials were obviously better than Xuan.
The top-grade ones are several grades higher, and even Ning Chen is a little frightened by the burning sensation. He feels that when he reaches the late stage of Yuan Condensation, he can try to refine earth-grade magic weapons.
The harvest of materials was very surprising, and the harvest of strange fires was even more surprising. While Ning Chen was guarding the Thousand Stars Formation, many strange fires came to the intersection of fire veins through energy flow, and Ning Chen actually harvested them smoothly.
Nine kinds of strange fires!
That's right, nine types.
Even Fentian Valley, which had occupied the crater for tens of thousands of years, had only discovered six kinds of strange fires, and now Ning Chen had collected nine kinds. In addition to the six kinds that Shentujiang told him, there were three kinds that he had never seen before.
Pass.
And these three types of strange fires that have never been seen before are indeed attracted here from deeper underground. It can be seen that they themselves should be more difficult to discover and capture. If Ning Chen hadn't gathered the energy here almost beyond the limit.
, I'm afraid these strange fires are still hidden deep underground and never see the light of day.
"It's a big success." Ning Chen looked at these strange fires and earth-level materials, and felt that his copycat version of the Nine Dragons Divine Fire Shield could not be turned into a regular one in Bilanzhou.
…
Ning Chen was controlling the formation in the underground fire veins, while the Burning Sky Valley disciples on the upper level were still exploring the volcano, looking for strange fires.
"Have my cultivation improved? I have been underground for two days. Logically speaking, I should not be able to bear it anymore, but now I feel that I can still hold on for another half day!" A disciple who was in the early stage of Condensing Yuan was a little confused.
"It's a bit strange, but why is it so easy to improve your cultivation? I feel like the heat under the crater has subsided a little." Some other disciples said after feeling it.
With the operation of the formation, Ning Chen has gradually lost control of each formation. Many formations have been destroyed by lava and have lost control of the formation. Not only have the energy flows triggered by the formation not subsided, but they have become stronger and stronger.
Soon, the heat loss under the crater became more and more serious, and the pressure of the Thousand Stars Array became even greater.
These changes have attracted the attention of the disciples of Fentian Valley under the crater.
"Senior Brother Shentu!"
At this time, a fiery red figure flew into the crater. It was Shentu Jiang, the direct disciple of Fentian Valley.
Meeting Ning Chen did not make his luck any better. Now nearly half a year has passed, and he visits the crater almost every month, but still finds nothing.
"I don't believe it anymore. I must harvest a clump of heaven and earth fire! Hey, how come the heat under the crater has subsided a lot?"
"Senior Brother Shentu, have you also noticed? For some reason, the heat under the crater seems to be less violent than usual." A disciple came to his side and said, "Although there were times when the heat declined in the past, it was never like this.
Less serious.”
Shen Tujiang thought for a while, frowned and said, "Didn't you go down and take a look?"
The disciple smiled bitterly, "Even if the heat fades, the lava is enough to burn our protective weapons. How can we get down?"
A smile appeared on Shen Tujiang's lips. He had received part of the inheritance from Ning Chen's "Five Elements Manual". Although he didn't know how long it would take to master the fire escape technique, his ability to move and endure in the flames had been greatly improved.
"Let me go down and have a look. If the volcano is accumulating heat, we may have to make preparations early." Shentujiang said calmly, and then he flew into the sea of lava and disappeared without a trace.
"Senior Brother Shentu's cultivation has improved again!"
"It's amazing. If Senior Brother Shentu gets another bunch of strange fire, he might be the next Uncle Ancient Master!"
"Hmph, then Senior Brother Shentu can kill Ning Chen and show off the power of Burning Heaven Valley!"
Shen Tujiang shuttled through the lava like a fish, and he conveniently collected a piece of material that had flowed to him. He had already dived more than a hundred feet further than he had half a year ago.
"Strange, why do I feel that all these fire veins are flowing in one direction?" Shen Tujiang murmured to himself, his eyes flickering, "Is some kind of heavenly material and earthly treasure about to be born?"
"No." Ning Chen's faint voice sounded in his ears.
"Is it necessary to be so surprised?" Ning Chen teased.
"Why are you here?" Shen Tujiang's expression changed and he asked with difficulty.
"Why can't I be here?
By the way, now that you have practiced the "Fire Scripture" I passed on to you, you are now only one step away from the late stage of Ning Yuan. There is hope of breaking Gu Xianyang's record. Congratulations." Ning Chen looked at Shentu Jiang up and down.
Smiled slightly.
Shen Tujiang was silent for a long time. Since he had sworn to surrender before and practiced the skills given to him by Ning Chen, he had accepted the identity of Ning Chen's slave.
It's okay to admit it, but when he knew that Ning Chen and Fentiangu were facing each other, he still hoped that Ning Chen could be killed by the ancestors of the sect's golden elixir, because in that case, his oath would naturally be
Canceled.
But who knew that not only did Ning Chen not die, but he was so bold that he sneaked into the core forbidden area of Burning Sky Valley!
But when it comes to cultivation, Shentu Jiang is really satisfied. Nowadays, several people at the same level as him have basically died in the hands of Ning Chen. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the only one of this generation in Fentian Valley, so recently everyone
All kinds of resources were provided to him, coupled with Ning Chen's teaching bonus, he quickly reached his current level.
But the only thing I have is a little regretful...
Ning Chen rubbed his chin, looked at Shen Tujiang and laughed softly, "You haven't found the strange fire yet?"
"No." Shen Tujiang shook his head, his expression a little ugly.
"What's going on outside now?" Ning Chen smiled, changed the subject and asked.
Shen Tujiang said in a deep voice, "Most of the Golden Elixir ancestors have returned to the mountain gate, and your matter has calmed down a lot. However, I guess there are still a few Golden Elixir monks hiding in secret, waiting for you to show up."
Ning Chen nodded. Shen Tujiang's words were quite sincere and he didn't deliberately induce him to make mistakes. Moreover, judging from his progress in cultivation, it didn't look like his Taoist heart was compromised.
In this case, you can let Shentu Jiang make another contribution to Burning Heaven Valley and follow him a few times. When he sinks deeper and deeper, he can only go to the dark side.
