In the sea of souls, the little sword spirit hid behind the reincarnation stone without saying a word. After returning from Jiugu Mountain, the little sword spirit became silent a lot.
Hua Ruxue had no intention of condolencing this sword spirit that had mocked her. She opened "Wu Zi Jue" and saw the words above:
"If you want to break through the second level of body refining, you need to use the power of attributes to reshape the muscles and bones, break them and then stand up."
It is not difficult to understand the power of this attribute. Monsters are mainly divided into eight attributes: metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, thunder, and ice. Occasionally, some indistinguishable attributes will appear. The spiritual roots of monks are also divided into these attributes.
Although the power displayed by humans and demons is called demon power or spiritual power, they are essentially attributes.
"Humans and monsters absorb spiritual energy to practice. Spiritual energy contains all attributes. Spiritual roots allow monks to convert all absorbed spiritual energy into the same attributes. Therefore, single spiritual roots practice the fastest." Samsara Stone said slowly.
"Spiritual roots are divided into top grade, earth grade, and heaven grade. Does the grade represent the speed of transformation?"
No wonder monks all regard single spiritual roots as the most powerful. Hua Ruxue has always felt that the mixed spiritual roots they say are the most powerful. They have various attributes and can be used whatever they want.
But in fact, the cultivation of dual spiritual roots is at least twice as slow as that of single spiritual roots. After ascending, the immortals can use various spells and are no longer limited to a single attribute.
"Well, have you finished reading?"
"Hmm, Xiao Shitou, what can I use to break through to the second level of body refining this time?" Hua Ruxue asked this three times, and every time Xiao Shitou never answered. Even the third-level monsters she encountered in Jiugu Mountain couldn't help her. Somewhat flustered.
The reincarnation stone left the sea, and the little sword spirit ran away quickly. Ice-blue flames slowly ignited at the bottom of the soul sea, and an ethereal voice echoed in the soul sea: "Fire."
Immortals who practice "Wu Zi Jue" cannot use the power of attributes displayed by humans or demons. Those powers are too weak to refine their bodies at all.
The attribute power they used was born between heaven and earth, the extreme cold of ice, earth fire, sky fire, earth core flame, and sky thunder.
Today, the attribute power that I want to use on the little fox is a fire. Before Jiugushan's battle with the Demon Wolf, the Samsara Stone was not aware of its existence.
The ice-blue flame that was once regarded as a nightmare by people in the immortal world burned the entire seventh heaven.
"What kind of fire is this?" Hua Ruxue asked, why is it in her soul sea?
Before she could finish speaking, her consciousness was pushed out of the soul sea. Hua Ruxue was now in the ice-blue sea of fire. The blue-white flame seemed to have its own consciousness.
It swallowed up the extreme cold power on Hua Ruxue in the most gentle way. During the whole process, she was tightly wrapped in warmth and could not even feel a trace of pain.
Samsara Stone quietly did not reply. What kind of fire it was was not important. What was important was how far this long-silent fire could reach. Is it comparable to earthly fire or heavenly fire?
He hoped from the bottom of his heart that the fire would be smaller.
"Sir Samsara, I'm going to die, hot, hot, hot!" The little sword spirit hid at the edge of the soul sea, trying to extinguish the fire on his body.
Samsara Stone glanced at Wuwei Sword and did not help. The fire on his body was not real, it was the inner fire caused by fear and guilt in his heart, and it was his own karma.
The little sword spirit cried: "I was wrong, I shouldn't have deceived my family! Woohoo!"
"anything else?"
"You shouldn't be disrespectful to living things and kill the tree demon. I suddenly lost consciousness. When I woke up, the tree demon and the white fox clan were all gone..."
Everyone who participated in the hunt for the tree demon ten years ago, including Wuwei Jian, had abnormalities. The Samsara Stone guessed that something had happened in the fairy world. Therefore, although Samsara Stone saw them, it only protected the little fox secretly and did not ask for rescue.
Every calamity he experienced had been deduced countless times in advance using his horoscope to ensure that it was foolproof, but this time something unexpected happened. The opponent can find a gap among thousands of possible successes and magnify it infinitely, leading to failure. Its strength is self-evident.
"After my master learned about this, he sealed me in a mountain. A few months ago, I suddenly sensed the aura of Lord Samsara, so I tried my best to seek help, and then you came, Lord Samsara."
a mountain? A few months ago? Samsara Stone couldn't help but wonder, was the original sealing place of Wuwei Sword in Jiugu Mountain?
It has only been ten years, and the seal cannot be weakened for no reason. The little fox has been in Qingyang Mountain since ten years ago. If he sensed the aura, it should have started ten years ago.
Samsara Stone asked: "Which month is it specifically?"
"I don't remember, it should be... February? March?"
If it is February, it should be the day when the spiritual roots are planted for the little fox in the Beast Forest. Hearing this, he no longer struggled with the reincarnation stone. He thought that the encounter with the sword spirit was just a coincidence. The sword spirit separated from the main body was useless, and the opponent had no reason to include the sword spirit in his calculations.
Without a head-on confrontation with the enemy and without understanding his final intention, Samsara Stone could not rest assured. At present, of the three trustworthy people in the immortal world, one is not at home, one is still sleeping, and one has not yet emerged. Guan, the only thing he can rely on is the little fox in front of him.
Hua Ruxue is standing in the darkness at a loss. To break through the second level of body refining, she must first reshape her muscles and bones. Where is she?
She concentrated on looking for an exit, and at this moment, ice-blue flames suddenly appeared beside her. It spread towards the depths, as if leading her the way.
After hesitating for a moment, Hua Ruxue walked decisively in the direction pointed by the flame. A touch of ice blue wrapped around her fingertips, and her body instantly felt warm.
Since she started using Reiki, she has been enveloped in cold for a long time and rarely feels as warm as she does now.
"Thanks."
The flames pulsed three times at the fingertips as an answer.
"Who are you?" Hua Ruxue asked again.
The flame jumped three more times, but unfortunately she couldn't understand the language of the flame.
At the end, the flames gathered together and slowly formed a tall figure. Just when the outline of the facial features was about to appear, the flames suddenly dispersed.
After trying seven times, it was the same every time. In the end, it seemed to accept its fate and turned into a vague outline. It squatted down and gently stroked the top of her hair.
Although the flame in front of her had no facial features, Hua Ruxue could feel the tenderness on his body, just like the person in her dream who would hold her and coax her to sleep.
She suddenly wanted to hug this person, so she tried to stretch out her right hand. The moment her fingertips lightly touched the flame, the flame suddenly dispersed.
All that was left in the darkness was a sigh of regret and a bead that glowed with ice-blue light.
The bead fell into the palm of Hua Ruxue's right hand, forming an icy blue mark of the nine-tailed fox. It quickly disappeared and the darkness began to collapse.
When Hua Ruxue opened her eyes again, the pear tree outside the east window was in full bloom. She opened her right hand, and there were only a few slender palm lines in her palm, the shadow condensed by the flames and the ice blue nine-tailed fox pattern. , seemed to be just a sweet dream she had when she was sleepy.
"Little Fox."
A familiar voice sounded in the soul sea, and Hua Ruxue came back to her senses. She concentrated her energy into a virtual image, and her body was wrapped in ice blue. Compared to the coldness brought by the extreme cold, the power of the flames was extremely warm.
"Little stone, it's done!" Hua Ruxue was immersed in the joy of a successful breakthrough. She originally thought that the reshaping of her muscles and bones would be the same as last time, but she never thought that this time it would not hurt at all.
She just had a dream and when she woke up, she had a successful breakthrough.
The reincarnation stone's eyes fell on the virtual image, and he felt that one stone was as big as two heads, and there were only two final steps left before the end of the road, the earth's center Yan and the sky thunder.
I never expected that the fire would burn so hard.
"Fire Control Technique." Samsara Stone threw the "Fire Control Technique" to the little fox, along with a red and blue flame.
Red and blue flames suddenly jumped at the fingertips. Hua Ruxue was startled at first, and then realized that the breath was actually fox fire, the fox fire left by the red fox.
"Is this a fox fire?" She was a little unsure. It was so weak at first that it seemed like it would go out if the wind blew, but now it is full of strength.
"It has absorbed part of the flames. You can use the "Fire Control Technique" to maintain it, and let it deal with the backlash of spiritual power in the future."
"What a great idea! Use fox fire to dissolve the frost caused by using spiritual power!"
One fox and one stone hit it off immediately, without any regard for the feelings of the weak fox fire.
Seeing the reincarnation stone in the sea of souls, there was neither the dream weaver lamp nor those skills, and now there was no fox fire. He felt a lot more comfortable, and he was spinning comfortably in the sea of souls.
"This way I can start practicing "Ice Art" and go kill monsters with them!" Hua Ruxue stood up, opened the door and walked out, wanting to tell Su Yi and the others the good news.
Samsara Shi said: "They are not here."
"Not there? How long did it take for me to break through?"
Hua Ruxue turned to look at the tall pear tree. The scenery in Luoying Valley was the same in all four seasons. The pear tree bloomed during the day and fell at night.
She didn't know her age for a moment, but it was clear that she just had a dream about flames.
"Five months."
Five months! It was the first month at that time, which was the late stage of the beast tide.
Hua Ruxue frowned. She missed the invasion of evil spirits in June and September, and now she missed the beast tide in winter.
She walked out worriedly, and when she passed by Qingyu Pavilion, she saw a petite and charming girl standing in front of the door. There was some worry in her almond eyes, and she looked blankly out of the valley.
This girl Hua Ruxue had met once from a distance. She was the one who had been following Su Yue in the Forest of Beasts.
He looks fifteen or sixteen years old, has seven levels of Qi training, and three spiritual roots of water, wood, and earth. Why does this kind of talent appear in Luoying Valley?
Hua Ruxue walked over alertly and asked the girl, "Who are you?"
The girl was startled, looked down at Hua Ruxue, her almond-shaped eyes slightly opened, and said happily: "I am Su Yin. Half of the disciples in Luoying Valley have gone to the Forest of No Return. Qingyu Pavilion is short of manpower, so I am here to help. Congratulations on your successful breakthrough!"
Hua Ruxue nodded, the monster was also going to break through, so her seclusion training would not arouse suspicion.
Seemingly sensing her worry, Su Yin added, "Don't worry, they will be back soon."
Hua Ruxue did not feel relieved after hearing this, but just gave up the idea of leaving the valley. Even if she went out now, she would not be able to make it in time. She raised her head and asked Su Yin, "Is anyone injured?"
"No, but..." Su Yin lowered her eyes, as if remembering something sad, she said: "Senior Brother Su Yue's contracted beast was killed in battle."
During the beast tide, only disciples at the golden elixir level and above were allowed to go to the Forest of No Return. I guess Su Yue had successfully formed the elixir. His contracted beast was a giant-toothed rabbit, which ran away very fast, so he might have encountered a strong enemy.
"This year's beast wave, how many monsters came?"
"In the early stage of the beast tide, there were three thousand monsters. Senior brother, he was accidentally injured. In order to save him, Ruyu was bitten by the monster and became a demon."
Ruyu was the name of the giant-toothed rabbit. The sadness in Su Yin's eyes was true. She felt sad for the rabbit and worried about Su Yue's safety.
The two said a few more words, and suddenly many people came outside the valley, including Su Yedieyao, Su Li and Black Python, and Su Yue.
Hua Ruxue turned around and saw that Su Yue's upper eyes were slightly drooped, his expression was tired, his eyes had lost their luster, and his whole person was shrouded in sadness.
Su Yin walked towards him, and he reluctantly raised the corners of his mouth and said feebly: "I'm sorry."
At this moment, Hua Ruxue suddenly felt that maybe Su Yue was not as bad as she thought, and maybe "Flowers and Birds" was just an accident.
She really couldn't imagine that such a person who would be so devastated by the death of the contracted beast would come from the Chang Ying Yun clan who didn't care about the life or death of the monster beast at all.
Maybe, she thought wrong.
