An hour later.
On one side of this fiery red and crystal clear spirit stone vein, Chu Mu stopped.
The crystal clear red in front of me, to the naked eye, is not much different from other places.
However, in the perception of the consciousness, the crystal clear fiery red in front of him is a little incongruous with this semi-natural formation.
A large array formed entirely from nature, would it be incoherent?
Chu Mu touched his chin, looking a little thoughtful.
Fire-attributed spiritual veins, fire-attributed spiritual mines, and they are still in a land of turbulent fire and sea of fire and lava.
Everything is inseparable from fire.
This is tantamount to artificially constructing a special fire attribute environment, and then using this special fire attribute environment to achieve some unknown purpose.
This is undoubtedly easy to understand. In the world of immortality, there are too many spiritual beings, all of which are created by various chances and coincidences.
Such as the spiritual planter and the spiritual miner, these two skills emerged just to study this kind of chance coincidence.
They also use various methods to simulate an environment suitable for the transformation or growth of spiritual beings.
The rules of summary and rules of experiment gradually became these two systems.
Of course, these kinds of spiritual objects that require special circumstances and chance to be born are often extremely rare.
And this kind of generosity in front of us...
Chu Mu hesitated for a while, then he raised his hand to seal the secret, and threw out a series of forbidden formations, landing on the fiery red crystal in front of him.
The formation prohibition merged with the formation prohibition, and as time passed, the fiery red crystal in front of him slowly melted.
About half an hour later, a deep cave that was as tall as a person and a meter wide appeared in the natural spirit stone vein in front of them.
From the inside to the outside, a fiery red tunnel submerged in the spirit stone veins has been formed.
Chu Mu waved one hand, and a dragonfly spiritual weapon sank into the pit of the mine. Soon, the dragonfly spiritual weapon flew back, and a scene appeared.
After a moment, he rolled up his sleeves, put away the dragonfly spiritual weapon, took a step forward, and stepped into this fiery red and crystal clear passage.
Judging from the scene just detected, the passage is extremely long and seems to extend to the center of this fire-attribute spiritual stone vein.
The passage is in a spirit stone vein, and the fire attribute spiritual energy is almost liquid. The divine sense detection is undoubtedly compressed to the extreme, and can only cover a few meters around the body.
Chu Mu moved forward cautiously, his body tense and extremely vigilant.
Fortunately, there didn't seem to be any danger in this passage. Although I was vigilant, I reached the end of the passage extremely smoothly.
A gray-white stone door embedded in the veins also caught Chu Mu's eyes.
He stood in front of the door, and in his spiritual perception, there was no restriction on the stone door. It seemed that it was just a door.
But at this time, he couldn't help but feel a little drumming in his heart. The traces of man-made things were very clear.
Such a generous act is obviously impossible for a foundation-building monk to do.
It must be based on the foundation, Jin Dan Zhenren, or even the legendary Yuanying old monster.
To exist like that, the means are beyond his imagination.
Although it seems that tens of thousands of years have passed, who knows if there are any backup plans left behind.
With drums beating in his heart, Chu Mu struggled for a while before finally making up his mind. He reached out and touched the stone door. His strength surged. In the next second, the stone door that had been closed for who knows how many years was slowly pushed open.
What caught the eye was still a crystal clear fiery red.
Among the crystal-clear fire is a natural cave. The cave is not big, only a few feet in diameter.
The scene in the cave is also extremely simple.
A flaming red platform similar to a sacrifice was located in the center of the cave. On the high platform, there seemed to be raging flames.
Apart from this, there is nothing else in the cave.
Chu Mu frowned. He tested it with a puppet and confirmed that there was nothing abnormal before walking into the cave.
After walking around the high platform to confirm that there were no other abnormalities in the cave, Chu Mu then looked at the high platform in front of him.
The platform is nearly two feet high, in the shape of a pyramid, with steps on all sides to the top.
High platform texture...
Chu Mu pursed his lips, but he was somewhat used to the arrogance of the ancient monks.
This high platform is actually made of medium-grade fire attribute spiritual stones.
In the perception of spiritual consciousness, the core and source of everything seems to be this high platform.
The surging energy gathered on this high platform, and the endless spiritual energy washed away. Under the influence of this day after day, the spiritual stone platform in front of me has obviously been completely integrated, and even some of it has exceeded the middle-grade spiritual stone. boundaries.
Chu Mu looked up at the top of the high platform, then stepped onto the steps, step by step, onto the high platform.
What caught his eye was a pill furnace as tall as a person.
Chu Mu was slightly startled. He had imagined many scenarios, such as magic weapons that had been tempered for thousands of years, spiritual materials, and even elixirs. But he never expected that such a large battle would be for elixir refining?
Is this alchemy... the alchemy technique he learned?
Over the long years, the fire was scorching day after day, and the nature of the alchemy furnace in front of him had obviously changed.
Under the perception of spiritual consciousness, there is only a strong accumulation of fire. From the perspective of an alchemist, this pill furnace is no longer suitable for refining any other pills except fire-attribute pills.
It has nothing to do with the level of the alchemist, it's just that the alchemy furnace itself has completely changed its nature.
"Um?"
Arriving behind the alchemy furnace, Chu Mu suddenly stopped.
The alchemy furnace, which is as tall as a person, just blocks the view behind it.
Only then did he notice that behind the alchemy furnace, there was actually a... corpse?
Chu Mu took a step back and fixed his gaze on the corpse in front of him.
The corpse was well preserved, but it was obviously corroded by the fire of these long years, turning it into a jade corpse that was as red as jade!
Vaguely, one can also see the original appearance of the corpse, which should be that of a graceful female nun.
Divine consciousness covered it, and the vague remaining aura that was far more terrifying than the foundation clearly proved that this woman must be a high-level monk above the foundation.
There was a large hole in the woman's abdomen, which seemed to have penetrated her entire body.
On the jade corpse, one could clearly see its shriveled internal organs. It was obvious that he had been severely injured in front of his body.
But why... died here?
Chu Mu thought silently, and a line of speculation also emerged in his mind.
The person behind the mystery of this place is this woman.
Then, the woman fought with others, was seriously injured, and fled here...
Therefore, the formation is incomplete?
Then what is this woman practicing in such a big battle...?
Chu Mu slowly squatted down. The woman's robes had been completely burned away. There was no foreign object visible on the jade body. Only a pale silver ring remained on her index finger.
Chu Mu carefully touched the woman's body and after confirming that there was nothing abnormal, he took off the ring.
The divine sense touched it without any obstruction, and the divine sense penetrated into the ring, and what came into perception was a broken storage space.
Most of the space has collapsed, and only a tiny bit of space power maintains the existence of the remaining storage space.
But such an existence is obviously in danger, and it seems that it will completely collapse and be destroyed at any time.
Before he had time to look further, his consciousness moved slightly, and the few items in the remaining storage space were all separated from the storage space and suspended in front of him.
But at this moment, something like this movement completely broke the fragile balance of this broken storage space. In the dark, I only felt a weak power of space flashing. The ring in my hand was still a little bit... The pale silver that is bright becomes completely dim.
When I looked again with my consciousness, I found that the ring had become a dead object.
He looked at several items suspended in front of him.
Two jade slips, one jade vase, and one jade box.
Apart from that, there is nothing else.
Chu Mu inspected them one by one. The two jade slips were both alchemy books, recording several elixir recipes and some experience in alchemy techniques.
The jade bottle contains several pills. Thanks to the good sealing effect of the jade bottle, the potency of the pills is still intact. Judging from its potency, it seems to be some kind of healing pill, and it should be among the best. Third level.
In the jade box, there is an elixir. The elixir is Stone Forest Ginseng. It is about six hundred years old and is extremely rare.
Obviously, the information about such a large battle has either disappeared into the turbulence of space, or has gone with the fall of this woman.
Chu Mu looked at the fiery red alchemy furnace in front of him and pondered for a moment. He also sat cross-legged, raised his hands to make secrets, and threw out a series of magic formulas, which finally landed on the alchemy furnace.
He wants to open the furnace to get the elixir!
But when he tried to control this alchemy furnace, he keenly discovered something abnormal.
This alchemy furnace has been refined for tens of thousands of years by such a large formation. According to common sense, it must not have any other attributes except the fire attribute, and it must be extremely pure.
But at this time, he actually felt a bit of... the aura of thunder attribute on this alchemy furnace?
Chu Mu looked suspicious, and took a closer look. He thought that the lines on the surface of the alchemy furnace were refining and molding. Looking at it now, he looked like traces left by lightning. However, after long years of burning, After being roasted, it slowly... becomes natural.
At this time, he also suddenly remembered the incompleteness of the external formation...
Perhaps, the incompleteness of the formation was not caused by this woman, but by...
Thunder? Heavenly catastrophe?
Chu Mu's pupils shrank slightly. From this guess, his heart was almost uncontrollably beating violently.
He remembered that when he was in Shuitianfang, he had borrowed some books from the Contribution Hall, and in one of the jade slips, he saw a description of the Heavenly Tribulation.
It is said that after a cultivator builds a foundation, whether it is a pill formation or a Nascent Soul, there will be a disaster from heaven.
Only by passing the test of heavenly tribulation can one be truly promoted.
The same is true for monsters. In fact, the catastrophe of monsters is said to be much more terrifying than the catastrophe of immortal cultivators.
All in all, heavenly tribulation is a test for practitioners who go against heaven!
And this kind of test does not only exist on living things, but also on dead things.
Dead objects such as pills and magic weapons also have heavenly tribulations, called pill tribulations and weapon tribulations.
However, according to the description in that jade slip, calamities such as pill calamity and weapon calamity are extremely rare.
Every time it appears, it means that something "Jealous" must appear.
Heavenly jealousy... although it is just a description.
But how terrifying would it be if a pill or a magic weapon could make God jealous and bring disaster specifically for this purpose?
Chu Mu stared blankly at the alchemy furnace in front of him, an associative scene already appearing in his mind.
Such a large battle has been refining the elixir for many years. On the day the elixir was completed, the woman arrived with her seriously injured body.
A catastrophe fell from the sky, penetrated tens of thousands of meters of the ground, ignored the sea of fire and magma, broke through the seal of the formation, and struck directly on the alchemy furnace.
In this way, the great formation was incomplete and the Earth Fire Spirit was born.
But why did this woman die?
Can the Pill of the Alchemy Furnace survive the disaster or not? Does it still exist?
