Looking at the handful of crystal clear rice grains in his hand and the foot-long red ants all over the ground, Wu Gen was quite speechless.
No wonder Yuhao had to harvest rice at night. It turned out that it was so hot that rice could not be seen during the day. Only at night will white bugs the size of a palm emerge from the ground.
On the top of the insect's head, a spiritual plant that is as long as millet will grow. By picking these ears of grain, you can get the so-called Tianyan rice.
However, you don’t just have to pick the rice whenever you want. Next to these bugs, there will be groups of red ants guarding them, alerting them to possible rice thieves.
Although there are many spiritual plants in this space, there are very few wild animals under the mountain, only sporadic rabbits, badgers, apes and foxes. Therefore, the ant became a tyrant at the foot of the mountain. With its abundant spiritual energy, its body grew to more than a foot long, and its hard jaws were as strong as pliers.
After collecting a pile of ant carcasses, Wu Gen gathered a pound of Tianyan rice, and his clothes were in tatters.
In the distance, Yuhao looked like she was doing nothing, sitting on a tree, chewing fruits, and swinging her feet in the air.
Angrily throwing a few uncooked rice into his mouth, Wu Gen's body trembled, a majestic heat rising from his abdomen, and his whole body seemed to have endless energy.
Three days later, the door was gently opened. Mu Bai looked at the plowed fields and couldn't help but nodded slightly.
In this way, Wu Gen stayed in the secret realm of Junshan for half a month. In addition to plowing the land and farming, in his spare time, he cooks for three people who have nothing to do. Especially the ant eggs brought out from the secret realm were very popular among the three people after being stir-fried.
The fish in Luoze Lake were also harmed a lot by Wu Gen and Sha Zhimo, but Mu Bai's favorite was a kind of whitebait that was only as long as chopsticks. Soon after the whitebait comes out of the water, it will turn into a puddle of water. If there is nothing to hold it, it will be difficult to taste it.
In order to please Mu Bai, Wu Gen also showed off his tofu skills. Every time I catch whitebait, I put it in tofu and steam it together. The flavor penetrates into the tofu and it becomes a delicious dish.
As the relationship deepened, Mu Bai's eyes towards Wu Gen became more and more kind. Isn’t there a saying that goes well, if you want to capture a man’s heart, you have to capture his stomach. Later, Mubai would even take out the fine wine from his collection and have a few drinks with Wu Gen while his wife was jealous and complaining.
On this day, Wu Gen entered the secret realm as usual. Just as he was about to close the door, Mu Bai also walked in, followed by Yu Hao.
The door was closed with a bang, leaving only Sha Zhimo standing outside the door with a look of resentment on his face.
"Wu Gen, I can't repay you for taking care of me these days. I'll give you an opportunity today." Mu Bai put his hands behind his back and led Wu Gen towards Junshan in the distance.
On the way, Yu Hao just told him that Mu Bai was going to use the Heavenly Furnace Formation to help Wu Gen temper his body today. Wu Gen naturally knew about the Heavenly Furnace Body Forging Method. When Ji Yexuan taught this method that day, he also told himself that it would be most effective if there were corresponding magic circles or secret techniques to complement it.
It's just that after arriving at Kuntian Continent, I have been busy establishing a foothold and gathering troops, which delayed this.
Today I saw the accompanying magic circle for the first time, and I couldn't help but feel a little excited.
Wu Gen had never been to Junshan Mountain before. There was a circle of thick clouds and mist at the foot of the mountain, passing through the mountains and rocks, blocking the way up the mountain like a wall.
When they reached the foot of the mountain, Mu Bai waved his hand gently, and a door-shaped gap appeared in the clouds, through which the three of them entered. It was only then that Wu Genfang truly saw the scenery of Junshan.
This mountain is not tall, but it is extremely beautiful. Wherever you look up, you can see many valleys surrounded by orchids, moss growing on the cliffs everywhere, ancient vines trailing purple all around, shaded by pines and bamboos, you can hear cranes chirping from time to time, and often see galloping apes.
Various exotic flowers, auspicious grasses, bamboos and pine trees can be seen everywhere, and the rich aura lingering among them makes people feel like they are in a fairyland.
When they reached a valley behind the mountain, Mubai stopped. This valley is not very big, with dangerous peaks standing on three sides, forming a pot-shaped space, like a huge furnace.
There is a hexagonal black rock in the middle. The rock wall is carved with soaring flames and supplemented by various animal patterns.
"Sit on the fire platform." Mu Bai pointed to the black rock.
Wu Gen glanced at the other party in confusion, and then secretly glanced at Yu Hao behind Mu Bai, "May I ask Master Mu if there are any taboos after entering the stage."
Seeing Wu Gen's worries, Mubai rarely showed a bright face, stroking his beard and said: "It's not that particular. The Heavenly Furnace Formation is not uncommon among shepherds. It has been perfected over the years. As long as it is controlled properly, there is no danger." place.
After the formation is activated, you can use your own blood to fight against it. The more intense the resistance, the more gaps you can find in yourself, and the better the effect of the formation's repair will be. Of course, everything has its limits. If you really can't resist it, you should let it know in time to avoid going too far and damaging the foundation. "
Wu Gen understood what the other party meant. It was just like hundred-fold steel. It needed to be bent repeatedly and fully exposed to the hammer fire to force out the impurities little by little and eliminate the bubbles and gaps inside.
Putting his belongings on the ground, Wu Gen walked slowly onto the stone platform and nodded to Mu Bai, indicating that he was ready.
Mubai's long sleeves flicked, and red lights lit up on the three mountain peaks. If you look closely, you can see that it is inlaid with jade the size of a basin. This is the first time Wu Gen has seen such a large jade.
Yuhao took out nine small triangular flags on a lacquer plate and placed them gently on the ground.
Mu Bai glanced at it, made a seal with one hand, and muttered something in his mouth. He raised his fingers, and three small red flags flew up and floated in the air.
Sitting on the stone platform, Wu Gen suddenly felt that his body was light and airy, slowly reaching the waist of the mountain.
The red flag rotated rapidly around Wu Gen, and the surrounding peaks became brighter and brighter. Red gradually enveloped the valley, like a huge alchemy furnace.
At the beginning, Wu Gen didn't realize anything. Maybe the legendary Heavenly Furnace Formation looked like this, and he couldn't help but feel drowsy under the dizziness.
Tick tock, a drop of sweat fell from his forehead. Wu Gen woke up with horror. Only then did he realize that his skin was as red as a cooked shrimp.
Touching the clothes on his body again, he found that they were still quite cool and there were no signs of burning. Wu Gen immediately understood that this Heavenly Furnace Formation only worked on the human body and was not useful on dead objects.
Dong-dong-dong, the heart beats more violently, one after another, like a war drum urging war. The blood energy gradually surges up, first like a gurgling spring, and gradually like a rushing river. Soon, blood energy roared and roared like waves under a hurricane, ravaging Wu Gen's human world.
There seemed to be long worms crawling under the skin, rising and falling, and constantly rising and falling, which looked quite scary.
Wu Gen stood up, his forehead throbbing, and his fists stretched out in front of him. His mind was running at full strength, trying to suppress the out-of-control blood energy.
Suddenly, a flag glowed brightly, and a red fire dragon flew out from the flag. It had long red scales and beards, and spurted blazing flames from its mouth. There were sparks behind it, and it fiercely pounced on Wu Gen in the air.
Wu Gen was knocked over several times and a red mark appeared on his chest. The blazing fire seeped into the body, immediately cutting off the raging blood.
This is like stopping a surging river in an instant. The water has nowhere to go and can only flow upstream. The collision of the turbulent currents raked out all the fish, shrimps, dead wood, and stubborn rocks in the water, leaving everything in the river invisible.
However, under the turbulence of the water flow, the pressure on the embankment along the way can be seen. If you are not careful, the embankment may be destroyed.
Wu Gen's face turned red, and his face suddenly swelled up twice due to the blood being blocked, like dough that had just risen.
"Open." Wu Gen bulged his eyes, clenched his fists tightly, and blood rushed to his chest crazily, trying to open up the obstruction.
After several efforts, there was only a soft bang, and the meridians blocked in the chest were finally unblocked, and the blocked blood flowed freely.
Before he could breathe a sigh of relief, the fire dragon bumped into Wu Gen's back again, and the hard-won peace turned into depression again. After finally opening up the meridians again, the fire dragon lost no time in attacking again.
This forced Wu Gen to shorten his breathing space and quickly mobilize his blood energy in a short period of time to break the congestion caused by the fire dragon.
Gradually, Wu Gen adapted to the rhythm of the fire dragon. When he caught a glimpse of the opponent rushing toward him, he quickly gathered his energy and used his own flesh and blood to resist the impact of the fire dragon.
The banging sounds came one after another, like a heavy hammer hammering hard iron. Some dark brown dirt gradually oozed from Wu Gen's body, and the smell was extremely fishy, like the dregs accumulated in his body for many years.
At the same time, in this fierce confrontation, some flaws that are usually difficult to find are gradually exposed. As Wu Gen consciously moistened it with blood, these gaps were slowly being filled.
Feeling the changes in his body, Wu Genzheng was sighing when suddenly a second small flag lit up and another fire dragon appeared.
The body becomes increasingly hot. The heat comes from the inside out and cannot be avoided. Wu Gen felt like his internal organs were about to be roasted, and even the sweat stopped oozing out. In desperation, he could only mobilize blood energy frequently to reduce the damage of internal fire to the body.
There was an even denser collision sound, Wu Gen's body was bruised, and a layer of fine blood beads oozed out from his skin.
The flames and impact made Wu Gen miserable. Fortunately, he had taken so many powerful supplements in the past few days, otherwise this terrible consumption of blood would have been enough to make him exhausted. No wonder this method is mostly controlled by large families. It is difficult for small families to support this kind of consumption. Just a few huge pieces of jade are too much for ordinary people.
Secretly glancing at Mu Bai and Yu Hao outside the formation, they showed no intention of stopping. Wu Gen had no choice but to stop thinking and focus on training his body.
Seeing Wu Gen's response becoming more and more skillful, Mu Bai waved his hand, and a fire dragon jumped out of the third small flag. Three fire dragons roared and hovered in the sky, their long bodies winding and circling, tightly wrapping Wu Gen in them.
There are fewer and fewer impurities on the body, the fire dragon's attack is no longer so fierce, and the red light on the peak is also getting darker. Wu Gen couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He didn't know how long it would take for him to encounter such an opportunity next time.
Suddenly it occurred to me that I also knew how to use the Heavenly Furnace Body Forging Technique. What kind of effect would it have if I used it both internally and externally?
With the temper of seeking death, Wu Gen secretly cast the spell. As the mental method moved, the fire dragon suddenly became very excited, chasing the route of the exercise, and bumped into Wu Gen one after another.
This kind of internal and external training is far more intense than simply using the fire dragon to train the body. Since all the blood energy at this time was running according to the path of the heart, he could no longer concentrate on resisting the impact of the fire dragon, and could only rely on his physical body to bear it.
Severe pain came in waves like a tide. Wu Gen turned pale and finally couldn't help but scream in pain. Suddenly, he opened his mouth and spit out a dark red meat ball the size of a pigeon egg.
