When Bai Suzhen heard Cheng Ling's call, she instantly burst out with powerful spiritual power, forced the old man back a little, and then retreated towards the entrance of the cave.
The old man flicked his fingers with both hands, and streaks of thunder and lightning were blasted towards her. Bai Suzhen managed to dodge, ducked into the passage, and quickly rushed towards the exit.
The old man sneered and said to himself: He wanted to leave, now was a good opportunity to kill him in one fell swoop, so he hurriedly chased after him.
Cheng Ling was waiting at the entrance of the passage and saw Bai Suzhen rushing out. He quickly threw out the formation flag in his hand. In an instant, a transparent light mask rose at the entrance of the cave, sealing the passage.
The old man didn't know anything and ran into the formation. It felt like he had hit a transparent film and couldn't get out. He was furious and cursed: "What a cunning woman, she actually set up a sealing formation outside the cave!"
Bai Suzhen ignored it and asked Cheng Ling, "How about it? Can you seal it?"
At this time, the old man was frantically activating the power of thunder and lightning, bombarding the membrane at the entrance of the cave, and the formation also produced waves of fluctuations.
Cheng Ling flicked his hands and said, "Who is this person? He is so strong. I want to maintain the formation. Sister Bai, please help me stabilize it!"
Bai Suzhen hurriedly stepped forward and input her physical strength into the formation. Cheng Ling freed up his hands and thought to himself, if a trapping formation doesn't work, then add a defensive formation and a sealing formation to see if you can break out.
The pillars and flags in his hand kept flying out, Bai Suzhen was desperately inputting his true energy, and the old man was also bombarding the light shield with all his strength. If he was sealed in the cave, God knows when he could get out.
Both sides used their own methods and tried their best. Fortunately, there was no thunder and lightning outside the cave, so Bai Suzhen could still hold on.
The formation pillars and formation flags in Cheng Ling's hands were also shot out one by one, and the sealing formation was about to be completed.
The old man secretly exclaimed that something was wrong, and said loudly: "Wait a minute, you two, we are strangers. As long as you no longer disturb my cultivation, I will let you leave safely!"
He could already feel that the formation outside was slowly sealing it. Cheng Ling and Bai Suzhen ignored it and just focused on stabilizing and arranging the formation.
After a quarter of an hour of stalemate, Cheng Ling finally knocked down all the formation nodes, and for a while, the formation was completely stabilized. The energy of the old man's bombardment could only shake a little.
Cheng Ling breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Sister Bai, you can cancel the true energy. With his current attack, it will probably take several years to break through the formation here."
Bai Suzhen also breathed a sigh of relief and said: "This old turtle's defense is too high, and he took advantage of the location of the Thunder Lingzhu, so it almost fell into his hands."
Cheng Ling asked: "You said he is an old turtle? What does he look like in person?"
"There is a huge cave at the end of this passage. When I entered, he stayed in the cave. There was a thunder bead floating above his head. He was purple. He was a black turtle. It seemed to be absorbing the power of thunder and lightning. Practice.”
"Well, I know, that should be the Purple Lightning Black Turtle. This kind of turtle is a rare thunder-based race. It is innately close to the power of thunder and lightning, and their defense is very high. His cultivation level is almost the same as yours. What?"
"Yes, we are almost the same in terms of cultivation, but he occupies this advantageous position, and I suffer a lot." Bai Suzhen felt very unhappy. If she were to be outside, she might not lose to that turtle.
Cheng Ling smiled and said, "It's okay. He is sealed in the cave by us now. However, this is not a long-term solution. I haven't woken up yet. I only sealed the exit of the passage. If he destroys the cave from other places, he can still do it. go out."
"Then what should we do? Or just seal off the outside!"
"No, the cliff here is very huge, and the power of the formation seal will be weakened. Moreover, if the seal area is too large, the formation cannot be arranged. Judging from his appearance now, he should not understand the formation. The formation on the edge of the island He did not establish the law.”
"Well, it seems like he really doesn't understand, otherwise he wouldn't be trapped by your formation!"
Cheng Ling chuckled and said, "That's easy to handle. Let's seal him off for a while and let's explore the cave. Since he is not the one who set up the formation, there must be others in the cave!"
Bai Suzhen said: "But we didn't find anything on the way in before!"
"Sister Bai, you have forgotten that there is a branch road here, but there is no fluctuation of thunder and lightning power on that branch road. Let's go in and take a look!"
Bai Suzhen suddenly realized, and the two of them walked in from the fork in the road.
The passage in the forked road was not big, barely enough for one person to walk, and it was very dark inside. They could only focus their eyes and grope their way forward.
After about a stick of incense was touched, I saw some hazy light in front of my eyes, but it was faintly glowing red.
The two continued to move forward and walked several hundred steps before they saw a small cave-like space ahead. The space was circular, only a few dozen square meters, and the surrounding cave walls were illuminated and dimmed by fiery red light, making it look very penetrating!
In the innermost part of the circular space, there was a humanoid skeleton lying, and there was nothing else.
Cheng Ling walked closer to the withered bones and took a look, then realized why there was a red light. I saw a red flame beating slowly at the pelvis of the withered bones, and a sealing formation seemed to be arranged around the withered bones, making it impossible for the flames to escape from the withered bones.
Cheng Ling observed the shape of the flame and saw that it had a circular core in the middle, surrounded by a circle of flames, and there were dots of sparks floating around it, which was very beautiful. He was very happy, but he didn't expect that this was the "Meteor Fire", the heavenly fire among the strange fires of heaven and earth!
This is really like giving me a pillow if I want to fall asleep. I originally planned to take some time to learn alchemy, but I was short of fire, so I got one in front of me, and it was a fire from heaven.
According to the records in the books on the golden page, this meteor fire ranks ninth among the sky fires. It is very rare. It can only be conceived when the stars in the sky fall to the mainland and cause an impact.
The dead bones here should have obtained this fire by chance and sealed it in the Dantian. Looking at this posture, the owner of this withered skeleton is a master of formations, and the formations on the edge of the island are probably set up by him.
But what happened to make him die like this? Cheng Ling did not immediately break the sealing formation next to the withered bones, but carefully observed the withered bones.
Bai Suzhen stood beside him. When she saw his face lit up, she asked, "Brother Ling, is this flame so rare? Why don't you refine it?"
Cheng Ling shook his head and said: "Don't worry, the flames are temporarily trapped by the sealing formation. If the formation is broken, the flames may escape. Looking at the withered bones, the bones on the body are broken in many places, which shows that they were injured during their lifetime. He died of serious injuries."
Bai Suzhen looked at it carefully and agreed: "Yes, looking at the appearance of the skeleton, there are indeed many small cracks. Hey, brother Ling, look quickly, his left hand is pressed under the skeleton, and there seems to be a storage ring. !”
Cheng Ling's heart moved and he looked carefully. Sure enough, under the upper body skeleton, the skeleton of a hand was pressed, and there was a bronze ring on the hand. Because it was similar to the color of the ground, it was really hard to find.
Bai Suzhen was about to reach out to move the skeleton and take off the ring. Cheng Ling stopped her and said, "Sister Bai, wait a minute. I'll set up a simple sealing formation outside first to prevent this meteor fire from escaping!"
After saying that, he began to arrange the formation around the withered bones, and Bai Suzhen could only wait on the side.
After a while, the formation was completed. Cheng Ling gently supported the skeleton with his hands and took the storage ring out of Dry Bones' hand.
Just as soon as the skeleton moved, the seal on the pelvis fell off, the meteor fire instantly spread its scorching breath, and the sparks disappeared in place.
Cheng Ling had already prepared and set up sealing formations around it, but it couldn't break out. Bai Suzhen nodded secretly. Fortunately, Cheng Ling had the foresight, otherwise he would have been run away by this meteor fire! In my heart, I admired his caution.
As soon as Cheng Ling pointed it out, he stopped the meteor fire and started refining it. As soon as he made contact, he felt a powerful blazing energy rushing towards him. He hurriedly used his skills to resist, while also increasing the intensity of his true energy to suppress the blazing heat of the meteor fire.
Bai Suzhen stood aside to protect him. She didn't have any objections to Cheng Ling taking away the ring and the meteor fire. Cheng Ling would not keep the items in the ring for herself, and would definitely give them to her if they were useful to her. As for the meteor fire, she didn't need it either.
The heat of Meteor Fire was very strong, and Cheng Ling struggled to resist. Fortunately, his true energy was very pure and he was able to hold on for a while.
After a quarter of an hour, one-third of it was refined. In this way, the heat of the flame was controlled, and his refining speed was also accelerated.
Half an hour later, Meteor Fire was completely refined by him. As soon as he moved his palm, a star-like flame floated in his palm, and he couldn't feel the slightest burning heat.
But he also knew that the temperature of the meteor fire was very high. If he hadn't refined it and used this flame to attack the enemy, it would definitely burn the golden elixir stage monks into ashes in an instant.
He looked at the flame in his hand with joy. In this way, his ability to fight enemies had increased, and he would also have a suitable flame to learn alchemy in the future.
As for the alchemy furnace, I had already grabbed it at the auction, and also searched several alchemy shops in Fang City, one of which was even higher quality than the one at the auction.
This trip to the island has been a great harvest. Not only has the array been upgraded to the sixth level, but the cultivation level has also reached the middle stage of the Golden Core. I also got the Meteor Fire, plus the ring of withered bones. I don’t know what treasures are in the ring.
Bai Suzhen couldn't bear her temper and asked, "Brother Ling, can you see if there is any treasure in the ring?"
Cheng Ling smiled and his consciousness swept into the ring. I saw that the space inside the ring is very large, and it is also a top-grade storage ring.
There are not many things in the space. There are a bunch of spiritual stones, all of which are medium-grade, and there are tens of thousands of them. There are also some herbs and formation materials, which are suitable for your own use. Finally, there are three books.
He took out all three books and opened them one by one and read them. The first book records some alchemy techniques, and it feels like I have seen them there. The second book records the formations on the island, but they were not set up by the owner of the withered bones.
The third book is a handbook, which records in detail some of the master's experiences, as well as how to use the inner elixir of monsters to improve their cultivation.
Looking at the records in the handbook, Cheng Ling suddenly remembered that the owner of the withered bones was the father of the stall owner who sold alchemy books on Canglang Island!
