At the entrance of the natural cave on the cliff, Ma Hongjun said goodbye to the Phoenix God King who was hiding in the core of his martial soul. He sighed slightly in his heart and then opened his eyes.
Nearly three months have passed, excluding the negligible improvement along the way, and the seven-day enlightenment has allowed him to further understand the way of his own flames.
However, this is not enough to make his cultivation level advance by leaps and bounds. After all, he is already a titled Douluo. In addition to the understanding of his own martial soul, he also has the improvement and condensation and compression of his soul power, as well as the fusion of his martial soul and his body, and the connection between his soul power and his soul. Fusion is also an essential part of the cultivation of this realm.
Therefore, his own understanding and the integration of the phoenix guts crushed by his grandfather were the fundamental reasons for his rapid improvement in cultivation.
In the same way, a few days later, when he and Shui Bing'er passed the test of the three gods, Shui Bing'er's cultivation improved. This was also the reason.
"Bing'er, thank you for your hard work!"
Ma Hongjun frowned, like a pitiful and helpless child, and fell into the arms of the queen next to him with a melancholy look on his face.
"What's wrong, Xiaojun?"
Shui Bing'er put him on her lap, gently smoothed Ma Hongjun's frown, and said softly: "What did grandpa say to you that made you feel so stressed?"
"Look at you, your handsome eyebrows are almost wrinkled."
Ma Hongjun sighed: "Alas, the great calamity of the world is coming. If you do something wrong, it will cause the disaster of overthrowing all living beings. How difficult it is!"
"No matter what happens in the future, I will face it with you."
Shui Bing'er gently stroked Ma Hongjun's handsome and melancholy face, and then said, "Tell me? What kind of disaster is coming?"
"Binger, I want to relax."
Ma Hongjun was like a salted fish. As he spoke, he turned himself over, then threw Shui Bing'er down. As he explored along the way, like a loach, his head went under the light blue dress in front of him.
Three days later, while sorting out the clothes scattered on the floor, Ma Hongjun said, "Do you still remember that dark evil tiger that seriously injured me?"
"Um!"
Shui Bing'er's pretty face was like a cloud, and she slumped lazily in Ma Hongjun's arms, letting him arrange her clothes. She was too lazy to speak and just hummed softly.
"Whether it's the Dark Demon Tiger or the Star Vine that Xiao San obtained..."
Time passed slowly. Listening to Ma Hongjun's narration, Shui Bing'er's pretty face covered with red clouds suddenly changed color, and she lost her voice: "How could this happen? How can we resist?"
Ma Hongjun nodded and said: "But this is a disaster for all living beings, so we cannot bear it alone. Let's go, first complete the test of the Fire God, and then improve the strength of us and other living beings as much as possible."
…
From the map, the southern volcanoes are located in the southeastern corner of the Douluo Continent. For some reason, these volcanoes have long been separated from the Douluo Continent. There are tens of thousands of islands scattered throughout the islands.
Viewed from the sky above Douluo Continent, it is separated from the mainland by a sea as clear as blue crystal, so it is also called the blue crystal sea by the locals.
Next are the Chongguang Islands where fishermen, pirates, as well as civilians, nobles, soul masters, etc. who have left the Star Luo Empire are located.
Some of these people are avoiding disaster, some are on the run, and some are the descendants of former soul masters who lived in seclusion overseas and practiced in isolation, etc.
Further south, there are the Lieclaw Islands dotted with tens of thousands of islands. There are hundreds of volcanoes in them. The vegetation on them is dense, mainly wild beasts and spirit beasts.
A few days later, Ma Hongjun and Shui Bing'er landed on the largest island in the Lieclaw Islands. Only then did they use the marks on their foreheads to summon the gods of water, fire and sea to come.
May I ask what kind of place is the Vulcan's favorite inheritance place?
At the beginning, Ma Hongjun’s first thought was actually the Xieluo Mountains.
You know, the closest thing to his home is the Sierra Mountains. It would be the best thing if he could turn it into his own territory.
And the Sierra Mountains are just around the corner
Eight hundred miles away, it is twice the area of Poseidon Island, and it has the potential to be the inheritance place of Vulcan God.
However, the completion progress of the third test showed that the Vulcan was not very fond of the Xieluo Mountains, which reminded Ma Hongjun of the Ice and Fire Eyes.
You know, in the eyes of Ice and Fire Liangyi, the power of ice and fire blends and surrounds each other, just like the relationship between the God of Fire and the God of Water. They know their roots and merge into one.
Ma Hongjun feels that this should be a suitable place for them to inherit, right?
However, the relationship between the two gods of water and fire and the goddess of ice and snow seemed a bit delicate. As a last resort, Ma Hongjun had no choice but to give up this place.
In the end, the historical images projected by Phoenix Dancing, the southern volcano where the Phoenix God King came and was born, became Ma Hongjun's best choice.
The volcano in the south is surrounded by the sea. Speaking of large areas, it is also a special structure where water and fire blend. It should be suitable for the inheritance of the two gods of water and fire, right?
Not to mention that he also has the spatial imprint of Shrek's Secret Realm. This is one of the gains he got after absorbing the golden slime's soul ring, and it is also one of the inevitable gains.
If that doesn't work, the geographical environment where water and fire blend together plus a movable space secret realm should satisfy him, right?
Sure enough, as Ma Hongjun and Shui Bing'er communicated about the marks between their eyebrows and foreheads, in just a moment, the brilliant voices of the three gods sounded in their ears.
"Ma Hongjun, with your wisdom and courage, you passed the third Vulcan test perfectly. Reward: Vulcan affinity increased by 10%."
"The fourth test of the Fire God is to build the inheritance place into an island suitable for soul masters to live, sort out the volcanic earth energy, and make it dormant for a hundred years."
"The fifth test of the Fire God is to repair the Void Teleportation Array in the Killing City. The time limit is a hundred years. It can be conducted at the same time as the fourth test, in no particular order."
"Shui Bing'er, in just two years, she assisted the successor of the Fire God to complete the third test perfectly. The reward is: a 20% increase in the Water God's affinity, and a core of Mist-Locked Flowing Cloud Armor."
"The fourth test of the Water God, aspire to become a Titled Douluo within ten years, collect six soul bones, 80% completed."
"The fifth test of the Water God, assist the successor of the Fire God to complete the fourth and fifth tests of the Fire God. The time limit is one hundred years."
"Ma Hongjun, passed the second of the top five exams, reward: a piece of Poseidon's power."
"Shui Bing'er, if you pass the third of the top five exams, your soul power will increase by one level as a reward."
After a moment, the divine voice that resounded in the ears of the two people slowly dissipated, and an unpredictable armor shadow gradually returned to calm as the rising aura on Shui Bing'er's body disappeared into her body.
Looking at Ma Hongjun again, except for the blue-gold bead in his hand, there was not much change.
At the same time, two streams of light, one red and one blue, rushed out of the foreheads of Ma Hongjun and Shui Bing'er, flew towards the sky, and then turned into two bright beams of light, descending on the highest mountain peak in the northeast of the center of the island, and then It was not until more than half an hour later that two brilliant rainbow-like red and blue haloes of light spread to the entire island.
The aura of sacred vastness and majestic abyss spread out in all directions. From this moment on, this island composed of volcanoes, soul beasts, wild beasts, and primitive old forests seemed to have a more peaceful and sacred aura.
"Does this require us to open up land and build a temple here?"
Ma Hongjun murmured to himself, standing on the top of a towering ancient tree hundreds of meters high, staring at the majestic mountain peaks that were hundreds of miles away, towering into the clouds and vaguely visible.
Shui Bing'er slowly finished her work and said calmly: "If you want to build it, we are building it for ourselves. Xiaojun, aren't you willing?"
"How can it be?"
Ma Hongjun held Shui Bing'er's slender waist and flew up, saying with a smile: "We have traveled thousands of miles to finally complete the test of three of you, how can we not celebrate?"
"Let's go to the highest mountain. It will be our exclusive sacred mountain from now on. Let's call it Phoenix Mountain. How about it?"
"Celebrating again?"
Shui Bing'er's heart trembled, she shook her head slightly and said, "Since this is our dojo in the future, let's call it Shuihuo Volcano, and this island will be called Shuihuo Island."
"Okay, I'll do whatever you want."
"But this is a cause for celebration."
Although they didn't know what the water volcano was called before, from now on, both the water fire island under their feet and the water volcano in front of them have their own unique names.
Water volcano, water fire island.
Shui Bing'er shook her head and said, "It's better to be careful. After all, this is an uninhabited primitive forest. There may be soul beasts that are more than 100,000 years old living here."
Sure enough, as the two flew all the way over the dense vegetation of Water and Fire Island, they saw a giant golden python with a body of tens of meters, a trunk as long as an elephant, or an ape-like spirit beast whose whole body was like flames, etc. .
Phew!
A loud bird call suddenly resounded through the sky. In an instant, a snow-white bird of prey, several feet long, with dazzling feathers except for its huge black and gold wings, roared toward the sky above the dense forest without concealing its figure. Ma Hongjun and Shui Bing'er attacked.
"Binger, be careful!"
Ma Hongjun flapped his six wings behind his back, and while he was moving toward the eagle-like soul beast at top speed, he was instantly like a compressed spring, punching from bottom to top and colliding with the dark golden claws of the raptor.
Click!
There was a crisp sound of bone cracking, accompanied by a harsh scream, and the black and white raptor was instantly knocked out by Ma Hongjun.
Immediately afterwards, the golden-red six wings on Ma Hongjun's back flapped, and he circled upwards. With another fierce kick, he directly kicked the raptor with a cultivation level of 50,000 to 60,000 years into the deep mountain forest below.
At the same time, a golden-red stream of light like a spark arrived first, and followed the black-and-white raptor's blood-dropping figure before sinking into its body.
The two continued to move forward, and after more than half an hour passed, a bloody lightning like a flame suddenly struck Shui Bing'er in Ma Hongjun's arms.
boom!
The sharp sound of breaking through the air was like the roar of thunder, and the red lightning flashed from far to near, as if it could be transferred instantly. The distance of hundreds of meters was just a blink of an eye.
However, Ma Hongjun did not remind Shui Bing'er in his arms this time. Instead, he stretched out his left hand like lightning. There seemed to be flames flowing on his jade-white palm, densely covered with a layer of transparent and crystal golden red light, accompanied by sharp and harsh sounds. The sound of gold and iron colliding blocked Shui Bing'er's forehead.
At this time, Shui Bing'er finally saw clearly what kind of soul beast it was that attacked her.
Its beak is like a sword, more than one meter long, and its wingspan is nearly ten feet. Its entire body is generally reddish brown, with a head of fiery red hair as fluffy as catkins, like an exploding flame. The beak is golden yellow, and there is a mark on the front of its forehead. A golden bone armor that looked like a helmet, with eyes as sharp as lightning, unable to hit a single blow, and the lightning retreated.
Shui Bing'er's beautiful eyes were stunned and she said in surprise: "What kind of soul beast is this? Has it had its hair permed? It looks so weird."
"I thought it was an emerald devil bird, but its beak looks like a sword-billed hummingbird."
Ma Hongjun shook his head and smiled, and then said, "It may have had its hair permed, but its mouth is pretty good. Bing'er, be careful. I'll be there as soon as I can."
"Don't be careless!"
Shui Bing'er reminded, taking the initiative to get out of Ma Hongjun's arms.
Ma Hongjun nodded slightly, and the six wings of golden-red flames behind him suddenly flapped. Amidst the sharp and dull roaring sound that broke through the air, he chased after the vicious bird that was changing its position back and forth.
And these six wings of the phoenix are the fire cloud wings of the external soul bone that he finally recovered after he was promoted to Titled Douluo. They are not the wings of his Lihuo Phoenix that transformed into six.
Of course, all of Ma Hongjun's soul bones have been smelted into the Phoenix blood red gold battle suit. No matter what soul bones he absorbs from now on, they will only be integrated into the Phoenix blood red gold battle suit and will not exist alone.
Unless the quality of the soul bone is so high that it exceeds the quality of the Phoenix Blood Red Gold Armor.
Therefore, it is not accurate to say that his Fire Cloud Wings finally recovered. It is more accurate to say that after being nurtured by the Phoenix Blood Red Gold Armor, his damaged soul skill runes were transformed into six.
However, since Huoyunyi transformed into six wings, Ma Hongjun's speed has reached the speed of sound when flying at full strength. With Huoyunyi accelerating, his current fastest speed is even faster.
It can reach five times the speed of sound, or even more.
But Ma Hongjun had already tried it when he broke through the Titled Douluo. At present, he is still unable to break out of the Douluo Planet's atmosphere. Flying to the height of the ozone layer is his current limit.
However, even flying at one to five times the speed of sound made him extremely fast.
Boom!
The sharp sound of breaking through the air was like rolling thunder, and Ma Hongjun did not activate his martial soul's true form. In front of this vast world, the young figure had an extremely powerful attack.
Even though the permed sword-beaked raptor could fly at a speed comparable to the speed of sound, it could not avoid Ma Hongjun's attack.
After a moment, the light from Ma Hongjun's five fingers skyrocketed, and the three-foot-long Destruction Divine Claws were like five red-gold Xuan He Divine Swords. He slashed with a bang, cutting off the beak of the raptor with a cultivation level of eighty or ninety thousand years, and threw it away. It flew towards Shui Binger.
"Bing'er, I'll give this to you."
In Ma Hongjun's hand, there was a golden bird's beak that was hollow inside but extremely light. Its texture was stronger than gold and iron, like a sharp sword.
Shui Binger took it curiously, "What do I want this for?"
Ma Hongjun snatched it back with lightning speed, then put it away directly, patted the non-existent dust on his hands and said: "Don't forget it, I will put it away for you first, and when you get the core of Qing Huo, I will make a sword for you with it." .”
Shui Bing'er rolled her almond-shaped eyes and said angrily: "The Vast Sea Universe Seal, the Dinghai Liubo Pendant, and the Mist-Locked Flowing Cloud Armor, what are you going to use to cast these three artifacts for me?"
Dinghai Liubo Pendant, also called Liubo Earring, is another artifact core that the Water God rewarded Shui Bing'er after she passed the Water God's second test.
Ma Hongjun turned over his hands and took out a few stones that looked like blue crystals. "This is a water essence stone. It is a gemstone that has been nurtured by the sea for millions of years or even longer and condenses the essence of the water element. I plan to use it." This will create the Vast Sea Universe Seal and Dinghai Liubo Pendant for you."
"As for the Mist-locked Flowing Cloud Armor, isn't this the Water God's divine outfit? When you collect all six soul bones, I will help you smelt them into one, and won't you have the Mist-locked Flowing Cloud Armor?"
Shui Bing'er smiled and said: "Every time I pass an assessment, Your Majesty the Water God will reward me with an artifact core. Although it is just an illusory core mark, as long as I forge them all, I can have eight artifacts."
"Earrings, hairpins, necklaces, shawls, bracelets, as well as skirts and shoes, God of Fire, you really love your wife."
"Although Your Majesty the Water God was a little harsh on me at the beginning, it was only after I passed His test and became His heir that I discovered how kind Your Majesty the Water God is to me."
"Where are the eight artifacts, Xiaojun, are you angry? Hee hee!"
"Begging for a beating!"
I don't know since when, the six wings of Fire Cloud behind Ma Hongjun have turned into the wings of Wuhun Lihuo Phoenix, and with Shui Bing'er's chuckle like a silver bell, he chased her.
"You've just been serving me every day for three days, and you're already itchy again, right?"
"Stop here and continue serving me."
