As the master of spiritual fire, Lu Zhong can be keenly aware of Zijin Jihuo's emotions at this moment.
"What's attracting it?"
This feeling has appeared since he entered the Tiangongye Realm.
As we go deeper into the secret realm, it becomes stronger little by little.
Lu Zhong used the Zijin Extreme Fire to locate his position and looked deeper into the secret realm. The fire was soaring into the sky, but the towers and palaces were faintly visible. It was expected that before the Taoist alliance collapsed, it was the core of the secret realm here.
"Is it there?"
"No, it seems to be just in that direction, not into the core of the secret realm."
Soon, he looked back.
For now, Lu Zhong doesn't want to cause more trouble.
He planned to settle the matter at hand first.
Although the name of the pyrotechnic knife made by Zhang Ye sounds ordinary, it actually has a great origin. It is said to be an imitation of a powerful immortal treasure from the ancient times of the Linghuan world.
The original pyrotechnic knife once achieved great fame.
Its owner also received a great opportunity and finally succeeded in ascending to the fairy world.
Although Lu Zhong doubted whether Zhang Ye could refine this treasure, he decided to collect the materials.
A total of three pieces of Fire Spirit Essence and one ingot of Red Flame Gold and Iron are needed.
Although the quantity is small, it is not easy to get it.
For example, the essence of fire spirits can only be conceived in the bodies of fire spirits of the sixth level and above. During the killing process, you need to be careful, otherwise if the fire spirit is defeated, the essence will also be consumed.
At that time, the bamboo basket will be empty.
Red Flame Gold Iron is similar.
This thing is called "gold and iron", but it is actually made of strong grass and trees. Born from the red flame fire lotus, the essence of the lotus fruit needs to be taken and refined before it can be obtained. One ingot is said to require nearly a thousand pieces.
No matter what kind of material it is, it is extremely troublesome to obtain.
Fortunately, they are all nearby.
Lu Zhong just needs to search patiently, and there is a good chance that he can get it together.
Without further ado, he set off immediately.
When it comes to finding things, Lu Zhong actually has no other choice but to scan the entire area. The only good news is that he has gray fog space.
With the help of scene retrieval, the consumption of spiritual consciousness when exploring the sea of lava can be avoided.
Furthermore, you can explore the places you pass by unscrupulously, without having to worry about disturbing the monsters or powerful beings lurking inside after your spiritual consciousness scans them.
But no matter what, hard work is inevitable.
In this way, Lu Zhong was flying while searching for materials.
Prepare to collect all the required materials by tracing a map.
The hard work paid off, and after just half a year, he found a piece of red flame fire lotus. Although there were not many strong lotus pods inside, it was still a small surprise.
However, there is a little trouble to solve if you want to get Hasumi.
Looking at the ferocious giant head slowly rising from the lava pool, Lu Zhong just smiled faintly.
As soon as he raised his hand, a thunder sword flew out of the air.
Then it made a turn and shot straight down.
In the blink of an eye, the lightning flashed away, and the giant beast that had been hiding under the sea of fire suddenly howled miserably. Before it could move even a moment, thunder and fire erupted from its body, completely losing its vitality.
After solving the guardian monster, Lu Zhong is about to pick the lotus seeds.
But at this moment, two escaping lights suddenly appeared in the distance.
But it was a panicked woman in white robe and the skinny old man who had caught his attention.
The two of them chased each other and quickly flew to a nearby location.
Sensing the aura that had just stirred here, the woman in white robe seemed to have met a savior. She hurriedly turned around and flew towards the lotus pond in a circle. The skinny old man followed closely behind, still chasing after him, and from time to time he fired green light bullets, causing the woman in white robes who was already covered in blood to get even more injured.
Lu Zhong felt helpless when he saw trouble coming to his door.
However, there is fighting everywhere.
Perhaps this is the norm in the world of immortality.
When the white-robed woman discovered Lu Zhong, her face became even more joyful, and she opened her mouth to cry out for help.
Unexpectedly, the skinny old man was approaching behind her.
There was a "bang" sound, and blood and flesh splattered.
A mutilated corpse fell into the sea of fire, with disbelief still in its eyes.
After solving the target, the skinny old man turned around and looked at Lu Zhong with a cold expression. He seemed to be silent, but coldness flashed through his eyes one after another.
He was thinking about whether to silence this person.
"I really didn't expect that I could meet other fellow Taoists here. I think you have seen what happened just now. If... Your Excellency swears to keep it secret and doesn't want outsiders to reveal this matter?" The skinny old man only felt that In terms of cultivation, he must be on a higher level than the young man in front of him, and he must be confident.
Hearing the words of the skinny old man, Lu Zhong's face moved and he stopped what he was doing.
"I don't care about what's going on between you!"
"You want me to swear... Haha, your Excellency may have been too lenient."
Seeing Lu Zhong behave like this, the skinny old man's expression seemed calm, but in fact he was furious. Except for those beings who were a level higher than him, no monk had ever dared to speak to him like this.
A sharp look flashed across his face, but he didn't rush to take action.
Those who can cultivate to the stage of refining the void are naturally not ordinary people, they have long been regarded as outstanding people. Even the most reckless people have long since learned to weigh the pros and cons.
The skinny old man glanced around and saw what was in Lu Zhong's hand.
I can't help but feel a little tempted.
Thinking again about the advantage in cultivation that I have...
Soon, the skinny old man made a decision.
On the other side, noticing the change in the old man's aura, Lu Zhong sighed in his heart. He just wanted to finish the competition quietly, but why did he always get into trouble?
Having said that, he is not slow with his hands.
He even drew the sword twice as fast as the old man.
Lightning breaks through the sky!
In just an instant, nearly a thousand feet of lightning shot out.
"You also said you didn't want to meddle in other people's business!"
This astonishing thunder light had clearly been accumulating power for a long time, making the skinny old man both frightened and angry. The young man opposite was so impotent that no one would have imagined that he would be a Lei Xiu.
But by this time, it's too late to regret.
I have to bite the bullet and have no choice but to fight.
The skinny old man hurriedly offered up a tree-fork-shaped natal spiritual treasure that was green all over, and splashed out large green lights one after another. While intercepting the lightning and dancing wildly, he tried to cause harm to Lu Zhong.
In an instant, due to the fierce momentum of the fight between the two, even the sea of fire was stirred up.
However, the more he fought with Lu Zhong, the more frightened the old man became.
The gap between the two was completely different from what he had expected before. The extra level of cultivation seemed to not exist at the moment, and he was soon at a disadvantage.
On the other hand, his opponent was as relaxed and comfortable as he was strolling in the garden.
"Hmph, I have written this down! I will definitely find it back when I break through the integration stage!" The skinny old man said harshly in his heart, and immediately fired out a rain of light bullets, trying to retreat.
"You want to leave now? It's too late!"
Lu Zhong smiled lightly, with a sarcastic look on his face.
As early as just now, he had already guarded against the skinny old man's escape, and had secretly sacrificed the Qingming Forbidden Bottle. Although this treasure is still a magic weapon, its ability to confine space makes it particularly precious.
All it takes is a slight interruption to thwart the enemy's intentions.
Then he stepped up his attack.
Now that we have taken action, we must root out the root of the disaster to avoid endless troubles.
In less than a hundred breaths, even though the skinny old man was full of vitality, he still followed the footsteps of the white-robed woman and was completely dead in the thunder and fire.
"Plop" sound.
It was reduced to a withered body and fell straight into the sea of fire below.
At this time, Lu Zhong had collected the lotus seeds and landed on a floating island that had lost its shelter and was blackened by smoke, and was inspecting the loot.
There are not many things, even the white-robed girl's share is among them.
A spiritual treasure called the "Green Underworld Staff", which is the birthright of the skinny old man.
After losing its master, it has become bleak.
In addition, there is a Broken Spiritual Treasure.
It was a magic bell, which was originally supposed to belong to the woman in white robe. It was in tatters, which showed how fierce the fight between the two had just been. It's a pity that after a fierce battle with the skinny old man, Lu Zhong got the better of everything in the end.
The two spiritual treasures were both made the day after tomorrow and have lost their owners.
But the value cannot be underestimated.
Lu Zhong estimated that dozens of high-grade spiritual stones could be sold.
Immediately afterwards, he casually set up a restriction to form a circular shield to wrap up the floating island.
The purpose of doing this is naturally to facilitate inventory.
After confirming that everything was correct, they dumped all the storage equipment for the two of them.
Things pile up in mountains.
One of them seemed to have a hoarding habit. Not only did he carry items such as elixirs, spiritual stones, spiritual minerals, etc., he also stuffed various buildings into the storage ring, such as an entire bluestone hall and exquisitely carved hangings in the air. Corridor and so on.
After wasting a lot of time, Lu Zhong finally finished counting them.
Generally speaking, this time there was a small gain.
"but......"
He looked at the thing in his hand, which was a golden jade slip. There was a message recorded in it, which revealed the purpose of the skinny old man to hunt down the white-robed woman.
"I really didn't expect that this Tiangongye Realm is actually related to the Jie Yin Bell?"
As far as Lu Zhong knew, the bell should be placed deep underground.
"Is it possible? The location of this Tiangongye Realm is also underground? This... is not impossible. This place seems vast, but in fact the environment is very similar to the depths of the earth. The buildings deep in the secret realm are... The knowledge is quite extraordinary. Perhaps as mentioned on the jade slip, it is not certain that it can lead to the location of the bell."
Lu Zhong cast his gaze into the depths of the secret realm and made many guesses in his mind.
...
Several months passed.
Lu Zhong hid his figure and was looking far ahead. His face was expressionless, but his eyes flickered from time to time, not letting go of any details of what happened in the distance.
A hundred miles away, a big battle was going on.
One of them was a thousand feet tall, a giant whose whole body was made of flames.
The Fire Giant is the spirit of fire.
They are things born from spiritual fire.
A natural firebender.
The Flame Giant's opponent also has an extraordinary origin.
It is a monster that looks exactly like a green bull, but has coral-like chamfers, is covered in scales, and is the color of fire jade. It can survive the blazing flames of the fire spirit without any harm.
Lu Zhong recognized this monster.
"Fire Qiniu!"
It is this thing that causes the purple gold to become extremely restless.
