"Boy Bai, you don't want to condense the Nascent Soul anymore? The biggest effect of the Heaven-Building Pill is actually to cleanse the innate spiritual roots of the monks in the Dan-Jie stage, making it easier for the monks to enter the Nascent Soul stage." Xuan Gu suddenly said coldly.
"Cleaning spiritual roots? Do you think I am a three-year-old child? How can there be such a heaven-defying elixir in the world?" Bai Ran was silent for a while, then turned around and said with slightly narrowed eyes.
There was a look of disbelief on his face!
"Hehe, believe it or not, it's up to you? But, do you really think that I have lived for so long in vain? Back then, I once captured alive a monk at the level of an elder from the Star Palace, and used the soul-searching and soul-refining method to force out this information. As for the outside world,
Rumors that this pill can break through the bottleneck of the Nascent Soul stage and greatly increase mana and longevity are completely false. Because a certain previous palace owner of Xing Palace once took out a Tianbu Dan and took it personally.
.”
"And you already have the Nine-Tune Spiritual Ginseng. If it is supplemented by the effectiveness of the Heaven-Building Pill, it can increase the chance of condensing the Nascent Soul to 30 to 40%. If you miss this opportunity to get the treasure, you have to wait three hundred years.
The next time after that, even if you get the Tian Mending Pill, you won’t have any chance to let it go.
The spiritual elixir has taken effect. Because the Tian Mending Pill is not so easy to refine. The entire spiritual root refining process will take at least hundreds of years to truly transform it completely. You have to think clearly about it yourself." Xuan Gu said with a hint of laughter at the corner of his mouth.
He said calmly with a nonchalant expression.
"The chance of condensing Nascent Soul is 30 to 40%?" Bai Ran's heart suddenly moved.
As if he saw Bai Ran's thoughts, Xuan Gu said with a slight smile:
"As for what you said about making too much noise when retrieving the treasure, just don't worry. Even if the sky falls apart inside this high platform, people outside will not be able to sense any abnormality with their spiritual consciousness except for seeing it with their own eyes. Otherwise, you
When this ancient times became famous
Why does Ding's 'Tiangang Cover' have such a great reputation! And if you are worried that a blood jade spider will not be able to successfully retrieve the treasure, don't forget. I am a master of Jiyin, and I have modified the way of demons and ghosts. He can do it.
How can I not know the art of refining corpses?"
After saying these words, Xuan Gu immediately opened his mouth and spat out a ball of fluorescent light the size of a fist, shooting straight at the blood jade spider corpse on the altar.
In the blink of an eye, the light group turned into a large piece of light green thick fog that covered the corpse. The green fog was quickly absorbed by the corpse.
After a while, the two parts of the corpse that were originally motionless closed up on their own and came together. Then a bright green light emitted from the fracture, and a blood jade spider that had regained its integrity stood up unsteadily.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Bai Ran's face remained normal, but his heart was extremely horrified.
There are so many wonders in the world of immortality! There really is such a weird magic that can instantly turn a corpse into a refined corpse. "Is my corpse-refining technique okay? Although this spider-refined corpse can't move for a long time, and its ability is much better than that of a living person.
The time is lower. But if you cooperate with your blood jade spider to retrieve the treasure, there will be no problem at all. Take it out.
After the treasures, I don’t want any of the Heaven-Building Pills in the cauldron, I can give them all to you. And you can also share half of the ancient treasures in the Xutian Cauldron, but the Xutian Cauldron must be given to me. What do you think of this deal?
?" Xuan Gu controlled the spider corpse to walk a few steps, then turned to look at Bai Ran and said confidently.
"Hmph, even if you are talking nonsense, how do I know if you will fall out immediately once the Xutian Cauldron is taken out? After all, you are superior to me in terms of cultivation and skills." Bai Ran pondered for a moment.
, after a strange color flashed in his eyes, he said politely.
After hearing this, Xuan Gu felt secretly happy.
Although Bai Ran's tone was a bit harsh, it was obvious that he was 70-80% agreeing and compromising. He just wanted to bargain more.
So, Xuan Gu smiled and said hurriedly:
"Bai Ran, you are too self-effacing! If I am not wrong, the two of us really give it a try. The outcome is only between 50 and 50. We will never be able to tell the difference between life and death in a matter of seconds. In other cases, In a time when people can return at any time, do you think it would be unwise for me to continue fighting with you? Of course, as long as you agree to help me get the treasure, I will hand over the alchemy formula of Jiuqu Lingshen to you now. A little guarantee of joining forces." After Xuan Gu said this, he turned his hand without hesitation, and an antique white jade slip appeared in his hand, and then threw it towards Bai Ran.
Bai Ran quickly raised his hand and made a light move towards the jade slip that was coming towards him.
As a result, after a flash of green light, the white jade slip was wrapped in a ball of green light and fell lightly into the palm of the hand.
Seeing Bai Ran's cautious look, Xuan Gu just chuckled and didn't say anything.
Bai Ran, on the other hand, had already begun to quickly scan the contents of the jade slip with his spiritual consciousness.
Although I didn't have time to think carefully about the authenticity of the formula, it didn't look fake. It did mention the miraculous medicine Jiuqu Lingshen. There were also two or three auxiliary medicinal materials that Bairan had never heard of.
After Bai Ran thought about it for a moment, he put the jade slips into his storage bag politely, then raised his head, stared at Xuan Gu and said calmly:
"Okay, I agree to this deal. Let's start collecting the treasure immediately!"
Now that he has decided to take action, Bai Ran will not procrastinate and let the danger become greater.
He immediately slapped a certain spirit beast bag, a ray of white light flew out, and another blood jade spider appeared ferociously in front of him.
"Very good, that's right." Xuan Gu's face showed excitement, and he also walked to the high platform and ordered the spider corpse to spray out the cobwebs first and get ready to pull it up.
Bai Ran here also calmly ordered the Blood Jade Spider, which also sprayed out milky white spider webs to cover the Xutian Cauldron under the entrance of the cave.
"Hurry up. We won't have too much time. Although I am restricted by my skills, I can't cast the violent technique. But I can cast some other auxiliary spells, but the effect is a little worse." Xuan Gu breathed out. He fired several spells of different colors on Bai Ran's blood jade spider and explained to Bai Ran.
Suddenly, the last blood jade spider entered a violent state. In addition to the bright red blood, there were two different kinds of black and green lights that were intertwined and flowing, making it look a bit weird.
Bai Ran frowned slightly, but didn't say anything. After all, without these auxiliary spells, the Blood Jade Spider really couldn't pull the Void Sky Cauldron.
Then the Blood Jade Spider and the Spider Refined Corpse exerted force at the same time and began to pull outward.
The same high platform shook violently, and blue light shot out.
This time, without the protection of the old man in Confucian shirt, he naturally had to rely on himself.
Bai Ran hurriedly released a layer of fire-attribute shield outside himself, and turned on the power of Lingxi Pairing to the maximum. His whole person seemed to be bathed in a ball of hot white light. He also put the Qingyuan Sword on the innermost layer. The shield is also opened.
A layer of green awn shield was revealed close to Bai Ran's body. And among the green thorns, there was also some faint golden light mixed in.
Xuan Gu's body was also filled with green energy, and the dense ghost energy enveloped him impervious to wind and rain.
good!
Although Bai Ran still felt a bone-chilling feeling under the violent rush of blue cold air. But with the Qingyuan Sword Technique running at full strength in his body, he was finally able to manage to avoid being frostbitten.
This made Bai Ran realize more deeply the huge difference between the monks at the Nascent Soul stage and the monks at the Core Formation stage. Back then, the old man in Confucian robes just used a shield to repel all the cold air, and there was no trace of coldness at all.
.
Bai Ran sighed and focused most of his attention on the entrance of the cave. The other small part was naturally always careful about the mysterious bones.
After all, no matter how talkative the old devil is, he still has to be extremely careful with him.
Under the strenuous and frantic pull of the Blood Jade Spider, the Xutian Cauldron repeated the scene of being pulled up last time. It was pulled up bit by bit.
For some reason, compared with the last time, Bai Ran always felt that the time to retrieve the treasure this time was really long. Every inch of the spider thread seemed to take a lot of time to pull.
This made Bai Ran feel impatient. If a few old demons came back early for dinner, it would be extremely bad.
Xuan Gu seemed to be extremely calm in the green aura. However, as the blue light at the entrance of the cave became more and more dazzling, a look of fanaticism gradually appeared in his eyes.
Under the gaze of the two people, time passed slowly, and the Xutian Cauldron was pulled higher and higher.
I don't know where Man Beard led those old monsters, but no one has returned to this place yet. This makes Bai Ran always worried, but also secretly happy.
Suddenly, Bai Ran and Xuan Gu, who were staring closely at the entrance of the cave, flew into the sky at the same time.
Then the top of the blue flame finally revealed the entrance to the cave, and the huge blue flowers bloomed again, turning the entire height into a world of blue ice.
Bai Ran stared straight at the blurry black shadow in the blue ice flames, his heart pounding.
The last time the tripod was exposed at the entrance of the cave, he had not carefully observed the tripod because he was always paying attention to the actions of a few old demons. Now he had the opportunity to truly see the true face of the tripod in Lushan.
Although only a small part of it was exposed, the appearance of the Xutian Cauldron was already visible in Bai Ran's eyes. The Xutian Cauldron was oblate, with two ears and three legs, about four feet high and about ten feet in diameter, so it was not very big.
There is a slightly convex circular cover at the top, with various scenes such as insects, fish, animals, and numerous landscapes and trees carved around it. Although it looks simple and rough, it is lifelike and even gives Bai Ran an aura of wild and ancient times.
Feel.
As soon as the cauldron emerged from the entrance of the cave, it began to hum slightly, and the sound became louder and louder. At the same time, the blue ice flames surrounding the cauldron also made "chun" and "chang" sounds several times, rising and becoming several times louder.
Bai Ran and Xuan Gu, who were standing near the entrance of the cave, changed their expressions almost at the same time and flew backwards.
I saw that the entire altar with a radius of more than ten feet was completely frozen under the light of light blue.
Except for the ball of light swaying slowly at the entrance of the cave, only the blood jade spider and the spider corpse not far from the hole were still moving freely in the large and small balls of blood. Everything else was completely frozen. But Bai Ran and
If the Xuan Gu had flown away a little later, it would have been frozen inside.
The altar at this moment seemed to be contained within a huge blue crystal.
"How do you get the treasure like this?" Bai Ran asked Xuan Gu with a sudden change of expression when he saw this astonishing frozen scene.
Bai Ran naturally didn't know how to get the treasure in such a strange scene where even his spiritual power seemed to be frozen.
"It's okay, I have a way to contain the dry blue ice flames outside the cauldron. The mysterious ghost fire I cultivate is also a very dark and cold thing. Although it cannot be compared with this ice flame, I can temporarily isolate it and trap it for a while. Son, it can still be done. During this period, you can take the opportunity to pull the cauldron out of the cave and collect it." Xuan Gu looked at the blue flame and said without blinking, as if he was extremely solemn. .
Although he said this coldly, Bai Ran could hear a hint of excitement in it.
Bai Ran's expression couldn't help but move!
The other party actually offered to deal with the extremely dangerous blue ice flame and let him take away the tripod. This really surprised him. He couldn't help but give the other party a strange look.
If he said that the old devil was so kind, Bai Ran would never believe it.
But there seems to be nothing wrong with what the other party did.
Is it more dangerous to collect this Void Heaven Cauldron? A trace of doubt arose in Bai Ran's heart.
Of course, if Xuan Gu suggested that he let him deal with the ice flame while he went to retrieve the treasure, Bai Ran would not agree.
So after Bai Ran thought about it for a while, he agreed with determination.
Now is not the time to be cowardly, everything can only be done according to the situation. If there is something really wrong with collecting this treasure tripod, he would naturally rather not let it go, but also want to make sure that he is safe first.
After making the decision in his mind, Bai Ran nodded his head casually to Xuan Gu to express his agreement.
Seeing this, Xuan Gu smiled at him with satisfaction.
Then, he stared at the ice flames with a strange look on his face, and then his figure started to spin in the air.
The ghost energy around the body rotated, forming a green whirlwind with a diameter of about ten feet. The surrounding area was dense with gloomy air, and the sound of ghosts crying could be faintly heard.
Then, the whirlwind pressed down directly on the blue crystal below.
There was a loud "boom" sound. The moving whirlwind seemed to be ignited and turned into a fierce flame, rolling up a pillar of fire that was more than ten feet high.
This fire pillar is neither red nor white, and its color changes back and forth between black and green. There is no trace of warmth, but it gives people an extremely cold look.
Bai Ran's eyes widened as he watched the strange fire pillar plunge into the blue ice.
In an instant, the three kinds of rays of light were intertwined together, and an unpleasant sound like metal friction was heard, which made Bai Ran frown involuntarily.
However, Bai Ran's frown immediately relaxed.
Because the black-green pillar of fire actually forcibly opened a passage and rushed straight towards the blue flames at the center of the altar.
Seeing this, Bai Ran also became nervous. And his mind quickly connected with the Blood Jade Spider Sutra.
As long as the opponent really has the magical power to separate the dry blue ice flames from the Xutian Cauldron, he will let the Blood Jade Spider exert its power immediately.
Finally, the fire pillar rushed to the entrance of the cave under the urging of Xuan Gu.
Facing the dazzling flowing blue ice flame, it just paused for a moment before bursting open. In the blink of an eye, the pillar of fire turned into a black-green giant lotus, swallowing up the entire blue flame and the Xutian Cauldron inside it. It's all wrapped up in it.
When Bai Ran saw this, he was suddenly shocked.
The first thought that came to his mind was that Xuan Gu had gone back on his word and planned to devour the Xutian Cauldron for himself. Thinking of this, he immediately grabbed the five-color copper ring in his hand again and became extremely vigilant.
But what happened next made Bai Ran feel relieved again and feel at ease.
Because after a moment, the huge lotus wrapped only the blue ice flames away, and the Void Heaven Cauldron remained in the same place as if it were an illusion, without moving.
Bai Ran's heartbeat accelerated suddenly, and a flush of excitement appeared on his face.
On the one hand, he secretly admired the magic of Xuan Gu Demon's skills, and on the other hand, with an excited thought, he immediately ordered the blood jade spider to pull hard with all his strength.
The originally taut and slender spider silk began to chirp loudly. Then after a violent shaking, a miracle happened.
The cauldron, which had always seemed heavy and heavy, actually seemed to become as light as nothing when it flew towards Bai Ran under the desperate pull of the blood jade spider.
Bai Ran felt happy at first, and then felt shuddering in his heart.
Not daring to be rash, he hurriedly raised his hands, and a pair of green sword lights flew out from his hands. However, it suddenly changed halfway and turned into two green ropes, which were wrapped around the two sides of the Xutian Cauldron. above the ears, and then exert force at the same time.
Suddenly, the cauldron stopped obediently at a distance of three to four feet away from Bai Ran.
Seeing how easily he could control the Xutian Cauldron, Bai Ran himself was stunned.
He vaguely felt that the smoothness of collecting the treasure must have something to do with the dry blue ice flame peeling off the cauldron.
However, this idea only flashed through his mind.
Without thinking too much, he flicked the green rope transformed by the sword energy, and the cauldron was immediately wrapped in a ball of green misty true energy that he passed over, and slowly flew towards him.
Then, amid a low spell, the Xutian Cauldron quickly shrank in the green light and slowly landed on one of his palms.
Everything went so smoothly, without any surprises.
Bai Ran gently rubbed the cauldron cover with his fingers, still unable to believe that he had actually obtained the Xutian Cauldron, known as the number one secret treasure in the Chaotic Star Sea!
"This cauldron can't be fake, right?" Bai Ran stared at the mini cauldron that was only the size of a fist in his hand, and suddenly a strange thought came to his mind.
But at this moment, a burst of laughter interrupted Bai Ran's weird thoughts.
"Haha! Dry blue ice flame, mysterious soul yin fire, and evil-warming divine thunder. These three can really be integrated into one, so that I can cultivate into the legendary Shura Holy Fire! I am indeed not wrong. Haha... "This was clearly Xuan Gu's voice, but his laughter sounded full of contentment and ecstasy.
Bai Ran's heart sank after hearing this, and for some reason, he felt a little cold all over his body.
He held the small tripod tightly with one hand, narrowed his eyes, and looked at the Xuan Gu expressionlessly.
As a result, Bai Ran was slightly shocked when he saw the mysterious bones in his eyes.
The black and green giant lotus had long since disappeared. It was replaced by a huge ball of light about a foot in diameter held by Xuan Gu's hands.
At first glance, this light ball is still black and green in color, but if you take a closer look, you will find that there is a blue flame burning slowly in the center of the light ball. Although it is covered with a black and green shell, it is still bright. He looked like he was ready to move left and right.
What's even more surprising is that there are dark arcs of electricity on the surface of the light ball from time to time, which keep bouncing around and make slight thunderous sounds.
Bai Ran's expression changed.
Could it be that the old demon Xuan Gu's real intention was... Before Bai Ran could think carefully about the meaning of the scene in front of him, Xuan Gu below held the ball of light and slowly flew towards Bai Ran. When he was more than ten feet away, he stopped moving forward and cast his gaze on the Xutian Cauldron that Bai Ran was holding tightly.
"Very good, you have also obtained the Xutian Cauldron. It seems that there is indeed nothing wrong with my plan." Xuan Gu said with a strange look in his eyes as he looked at the Xutian Cauldron.
After hearing this, Bai Ran snorted and looked at Xuan Gu with a wary face, but said nothing.
"Looking at your expression, I seem to have guessed something. Although I really want to explain it to you, you will be a dead person soon. I don't have much time, so I still feel more comfortable if you remain a fool."
Xuan Gu actually smiled and said leisurely.
Bai Ran was shocked. The other party's intention to seize the treasure and kill him couldn't be more obvious.
He immediately didn't want to waste his time searching for any reason, let alone talk nonsense! His face darkened and he acted preemptively.
As soon as he raised his hand, Wu Mei immediately threw out the copper ring that had been in his hand. After a flash of light, the copper ring disappeared from the sky. The next moment, they were neatly wrapped around the old demon's neck and limbs.
