Not long after, the two found an open space near the camp, where there was plenty of light.
"Can we start? What do I need to do?"
"Follow me."
Qiu Yunxi sat down cross-legged, with his palms facing up and spread flat on his knees. Chen Yao also imitated Yun Xi to make the same posture.
"Next, you do whatever I say."
"good."
"Close your eyes, raise your head, okay, you don't need to think about anything now, concentrate your energy, tell me, what do you see now?"
"Total darkness."
"Remember after me: The Tao is originally non-existent, and those who return things to the Tao will gain a breath. The things are originally existing, and those who use the Tao to transport things will be followed by hundreds of things."
"The Tao is originally non-existent, and those who return things to the Tao will gain a breath. Things are originally there, and those who use the Tao to transport things will be the best. The Tao is originally non-existent, and those who return things to the Tao will gain a breath. Yes, those who use the Tao to bring things about will be counted among the hundred in the Zhou Dynasty..."
Chen Yao couldn't understand the meaning of this sentence at all, but as the two voices gradually overlapped, he entered a very mysterious and nihilistic state. The surrounding voices disappeared, and Yun Xi's voice disappeared. Eventually even his own voice disappeared.
In front of what should have been nothingness, three familiar points of light appeared.
But something different from before is that the three light spots are closer to him. The central light spot is breathing and flashing rhythmically, and even gives him a feeling that he is within reach. However, no matter how hard Chen Yao tries, he can't get any closer. Half a point of light.
The sudden surge of anxiety caused the scene in front of Chen Yao to shatter, and his eyes returned to the darkness before. The sounds around him also suddenly appeared, and he had no choice but to open his eyes.
"how do you feel?"
"Not even close."
"It's a pity, then go back..."
When the two returned to the camp, Yue Li clasped her hands and trotted in front of them happily.
"Sister! Brother Yao, look!"
The two of them looked at Yue Li's open palm, and there was a small emerald-green lizard curled up inside!
"Succeeded..."
Qiu Yunxi couldn't believe it. It only took less than a day for Yue Li to successfully hatch the lizard egg.
"This is Lili's baby~ Let uncle touch it."
Chen Yao gently teased the little lizard. The strange thing was that this little guy was surprisingly docile, and whether it was an illusion or not, its body actually exuded a faint... breath of life.
"You feel it too, right?"
Chen Yao turned to Yun Xi and said.
"felt it."
"Hiss...this little guy doesn't look like his parents at all. The color is wrong, the shape is wrong, and even the breath on his body is wrong..."
"Huh? Doesn't it look like it? I think it looks similar. It looks like a lizard."
Qiu Yueli tilted her head and blinked her eyes, and the little guy in her hand also tilted her head like Yueli.
"Little fool, it is no longer the same breed as its parents! Well, you can say it has... mutated."
"Hey~ isn't it originally a mutated lizard?"
"Yes, I think it was baptized by your life force, which gave birth to its second mutation. To be precise, it should be called the Life Lizard now. Well... have you named your baby?"
"Um...no."
"Then let's call it a little caterpillar!"
"Wow! Brother Yao's name is so ugly! She is a girl, how could she have such a name! Let's call you Xiaoqing!"
Yue Li gently scratched Xiao Qing's smooth back.
"This... is also divided into genders. How do you tell the difference?"
"Hmph! Then why are you a boy? Brother Yao is acting like an idiot."
"Hmm...that's it."
Chen Yao scratched his head in embarrassment.
--------------------------
"Okay, okay, let's go, let's go this way."
Chen Yao pointed to the bushes on the right side of the trail, obviously wanting to avoid the two Iron Fist brothers. If they met at this time, he didn't know what bad things would happen.
"It will probably take some long detours, but not too far. About two kilometers ahead, you will find the place where Tiejiang Li was polluted. Everyone should be careful."
"let's go."
Chen Yao stood up and got into the bushes nearby, and several people quickly followed him.
Since this side has not been explored all year round, the plants grow extremely luxuriantly. It took a few people two hours to reach their destination in just two kilometers. They got lost several times in the forest and had to take out a map from Chen Yao. After comparing it with Yuan Guang above his head, he found the direction.
"I saw it."
Several people looked along Qiu Yunxi's voice. Directly in front of their eyes, there was an open space at the end of the bushes, and the outline of a building faintly appeared in the open space.
Several people quickly emerged from the bushes, and an ancient stone building about ten meters long and four meters high suddenly appeared in front of them.
Qiu Yunxi looked back along the building, until the end of his sight was the bare stone ground, and beyond that was a heart-stopping black, where even the light of the abyss could not shine, an endless black abyss.
Several people circled the building and found that there was only one entrance directly in front, an extremely heavy door.
Xiaohu tried it, but under normal conditions, he couldn't push it away at all.
"This place is very close to the Endless Abyss! About one kilometer further away is the edge of the Endless Abyss. Why is this building built here? And why is Tiejiang Li here?"
"It's indeed strange."
Chen Yao couldn't understand either. There was another problem. After walking hundreds of meters around the building, not to mention the strange beasts, even the sound of insects became very few, and the plants were only dark and twisted. Black snake wood.
"This place is really weird. It's eerily quiet."
"Yes, brother Yao, and I feel very uncomfortable here..."
When Yue Li spoke, Xiao Qing also raised her head and spat out the message towards the old building, making a strange hissing sound.
"Let's get ready here."
Chen Yao raised his head and looked at the top of the abyss. With this level of light, night was coming soon.
"Ah! But...is there any danger here?"
"If there is a danger, Tiejiang Li is not just contaminated."
Qiu Yunxi said calmly at this time.
"It seems to be true."
Xiaohu scratched his head naively.
Several people began to look for firewood, set up the stove, and lit a fire. They were very busy, except for Chen Yao, who sat by the fire and stared at the flames in a daze.
"So close to the endless abyss... Ordinary people will be directly contaminated... There are not even alien beasts and insects around... What is inside this building?"
While contemplating, in a daze, Chen Yao suddenly felt an inexplicable... feeling of closeness to the flames in front of him. Chen Yao slowly approached the fire, then slowly stretched out his palms towards the flames, and then directly Place your palms close to the flames! !
Doesn't hurt? !
The strange thing is that Chen Yao's palms did not feel any pain, but... a warm and comfortable feeling?
Several people were doing their own thing around, Yun Xi was maintaining the equipment, Yue Li was teasing Xiao Qing, and Jiang Hu was looking for firewood.
At this time, Qiu Yunxi raised his head and glanced at Chen Yao out of habit.
"??! Chen Yao!! What are you doing?"
Yun Xi was suddenly shocked. Chen Yao actually put his palms into the flames. Could it be that he was contaminated? ! You must know that among the four, only Chen Yao has not yet awakened. Could it be...
This shout was like thunder from the sky that woke up Chen Yao. His body shook violently, and then he retracted his hands. At this time, Jiang Hu Yueli also heard the sound and surrounded him.
"Ah!!! Brother Yao!"
"Brother! Your hands..."
Chen Yao looked at his hands with a blank look on his face. At this moment, Chen Yao's palms were red. It was not the red color of congestion or burns, but the crystal red color of iron ore fired at high temperatures! But he didn't feel any pain at all, but instead felt warmth.
"Chen Yao! How are you? Are you okay?"
Qiu Yunxi looked at Chen Yao's hands with a solemn expression.
"It's okay, it's okay, hahaha...hahahahahahaha!!!"
"Brother Yao... Yao?"
Yue Li shrank in fear at this time.
"Hahaha...cough cough cough...don't be afraid, I'm fine. I think I must have awakened my wild skills."
Chen Yao concentrated his mind and tried to convey the idea of cooling down to his hands. He saw that Chen Yao's palms returned to their normal color at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Wow! Brother Yao has really awakened! What kind of ridiculous skill is this?"
"Um, wait...Shhh! Be quiet for a moment."
Chen Yao sat down in a meditative posture, silently reciting the sentences Yun Xi taught him before.
"The Tao is essentially non-existent, and those who return things to the Tao will gain some breath; things are essentially there, and those who use the Tao to transport things will be the best. The Tao is essentially non-existent, and those who return things to the Tao will gain some breath; Yes, those who use the Dao to make things happen, the hundred in the Zhou Dynasty are..."
Not long after, the row of light spots appeared in front of me again, but this time the light spot in the center was brighter than ever before, and it was still flashing rapidly.
Chen Yao used his thoughts as a touch and tried to touch the light spots, and then he entered a deeper world of thoughts. The place was pure white, and in front of him were two more light spots, one bright and one dim. After touching the bright light spot, Chen Yao deciphered some information.
--------------------------
Molten Hand: [Give you evil fire to burn your body, soul, and wasteland; -------- (unclear)]
--------------------------
Chen Yao tried touching the gray light spot on the side again, but found that there was no response, so he exited the world of thoughts.
"Strange, there is only one wild skill..."
"How could it be...I have never heard of a person who only awakened one wild skill..."
Qiu Yunxi looked solemn at this time.
"It should be said that there is still a wild skill that has not yet been awakened, I can feel it.
Chen Yao stood up and spread his palms flat. Then his palms instantly changed from flesh color to red. However, the few people standing aside at this moment only felt a slight warmth.
"Xiaohu, come closer and try."
"oh!"
Xiaohu slowly moved his palm towards Chen Yao's, then stopped when he was a few centimeters away.
"Will it cause a burning sensation if you stick it so close? It doesn't seem like it can be used for attack."
Chen Yao carefully observed his palms and found that his palms were not burning flames, but rather like some light covering the entire palms.
"Brother, your wild skills should be attack-based, right? How should you attack?"
"I don't know...but we won't need flint to make fires anymore."
"Well..."
Xiaohu was momentarily speechless.
A gust of cold wind hit, and it was already dark at the top of the abyss. Xiaoqing flicked his tail and suddenly got into the cluster of iron-combed chicken feathers between his master's neck.
A few people had a simple meal with dry food and water.
"I'll go and guard first..."
After packing up, Yun Xi stood up and prepared to go to the surrounding areas to guard, but was pushed back by Chen Yao.
"Okay, today it's just me and Xiaohu Shou, you have a good night's rest."
Chen Yao squeezed Yun Xi's shoulders for a while, as if massaging her.
"Well...it's too thin. It seems we need to hunt more meat."
Qiu Yunxi knocked off Chen Yao's dirty hand, lay sideways on the straw mat and turned around.
"It's not like you don't know the situation in the village. Okay, if you want to keep vigil, just keep vigil. I'll go to sleep first."
"Little Hu Lili, please rest quickly. I'll watch the fire."
"Okay! Good night, brother Yao."
Yueli also leaned on her sister and quickly fell asleep.
Xiaohu remained silent, quietly gave Chen Yao a thumbs up, and then fell asleep.
Chen Yao faced the stone door of the building and sat back down by the fire calmly on the surface. What no one knew was that Chen Yao was in a state of confusion at this moment!
how come? How could it be so weak?
Chen Yao looked at his red palms, his mind in confusion.
I'm not afraid of fire, am I right? Can I use fire to speed healing?
He gently took off his clothes and untied the cloth on the wound. At this time, Chen Yao's six rows of tooth marks on his right shoulder were still clearly visible, but the scabs had stopped bleeding and basically did not affect his movement.
Chen Yao released his hand of melting with his left palm and gently placed it on the wound. However, disappointingly, apart from a burst of warmth, there was no special feeling at the wound on his right shoulder.
Chen Yao put on his clothes, added more firewood to the fire, and started to sleep.
Xiaohu can feel the scorching heat, which means that the temperature of the Molten Hand can be transferred to other creatures. It is possible for living things, but what about dead things?
The continuous use of wild skills has made Chen Yao feel a little tired.
Gently pulling out the iron sword from the scabbard, his red palms suddenly grasped the hilt. Chen Yao tried to melt the iron sword. Melting the iron sword at a temperature of hundreds of degrees was obviously a wishful thinking, but an incredible scene happened!
The iron sword did not burn red due to the high temperature of Molten Hands. Instead, like Chen Yao's palms, it was covered with a layer of faint red light starting from the hilt!
The light is not a real flame, but... an energy flame transformed by desolate energy!
However, no matter how hard Chen Yao tried, the red light only covered the hilt of the sword. Chen Yao stopped his wild skill, but the red light on the hilt lasted for tens of seconds before gradually fading away.
The previous haze has been swept away. If everyone hadn't fallen asleep, Chen Yao would have wanted to laugh out loud now. It turns out that this ridiculous skill is not as useless as imagined.
Rubbing his hands together excitedly, Chen Yao wanted to continue experimenting with his wild skills.
If we are using flame in the form of energy, can we ignite a real flame?
Chen Yao once again spread out his palm, preparing to transform the energy flame into a real flame. With one thought, the moment the wild skill was activated, a circle of tiny and fine flames actually lit up on his palm. It was a real flame! Not in the form of energy!
However, before I could be happy, a sharp pain suddenly hit me in my head! It was a kind of soul-rending pain. The severe pain caused beads of sweat to appear on Chen Yao's forehead in an instant!
Gritting his teeth tightly, Chen Yao knew that this was a sign of excessive use of wild skills, but imagine how much pain Yue Li endured that day!
The severe pain continued, and Chen Yao began to grab everything around him with both hands. The wounds on his shoulders were about to burst open due to excessive force, but he did not dare to make a sound.
I don’t know how long it took, but my vision began to blur and my consciousness began to fade...
[Chen Yao finally awakened his first ability. Yes, it was his first ability. The good-for-nothing male protagonist is a solid player, right? Hehehe...]
