Cao An didn't know what he was thinking here. He always acted according to his own heart and was unwilling to actively provoke killings, but he was not afraid of killings. When he should take action, he was decisive and fierce.
Gouzi doesn't quite understand it, he just feels that his master's behavior is different from other people in his impression every time, but he can often achieve unexpected results. It can't hold too many things in its head, so it can activate its demonic power with peace of mind. , the flowing breeze moved forward.
Apart from the pure reed marshes and occasional lakes, there is not much out of the ordinary in Xiaohanze.
While walking and walking, Cao An would stop and touch the water source with his hands from time to time, confirming the direction with the coldness in the water. Rare objects like the Ming Guo are rare to come by, and getting one was already an unexpected surprise. Cao An, who knew this well, did not I didn’t look around with the intention of hunting for treasure.
"Master, this place is so big."
"An area spanning thousands of miles, what do you think? This place alone is comparable to a medium-sized state capital of the dynasty, not a city, but the territory of a state capital." Speaking of this, Cao An looked at the endless plains in front of him.
"If this place is not a land without food, the output of this place alone should be able to support many people in the dynasty."
The old dog doesn't care about this. In comparison, the Three Heroes of Dingjiang attract it more.
"The Three Heroes of Dingjiang are so famous. This Dingzhou martial arts community is really inferior. Master, what do you think? Master?"
Cao An was speechless, "You can survive until now only because you couldn't speak before."
"Why, Master."
"Because if you had spoken earlier, you would have been beaten to death and stewed with dog meat by now."
"Woof woof woof!" Lao Huang barked excitedly.
Cao An's feet swayed, his body moved sideways, and the magic of controlling objects prompted the Nian sword to shoot out at the first moment, and the cold light burst out, cutting towards the source of the crisis.
Lao Huang's barking was not because of Cao An's words, but because of the sudden crisis. In a hurry, he barked instinctively and forgot to speak for a while. In his mental perception, the Nian sword cut through the source of the crisis like tofu. Cao Anwen Holding his figure, the Nian sword turned into a rainbow light and fell into his hand. Only then did he see two large pieces of flesh smashing back into the swamp.
It was a black toad the size of a strong ox. It was huge. Its giant tongue was cut off directly by the Nian sword. It was split into two and could not be taken back. The scarlet tongue was like two ribbons. There were long black toads on its body. The bulge was as white as ice, and where Cao An's sword cut open his forehead, an inner elixir emitting crystal light was exposed.
"It has become a monster."
The inner elixir floated out and fell into Cao An's hand. An icy coldness came from the palm of his hand and penetrated into Cao An's meridians. Cao An shook his hand as he tried to circulate along the true energy and spread.
"You're already dead, yet you're so vicious."
A pair of slender big hands instantly became as white as jade. Mingyu's true energy wrapped around the palms, and then the coldness was contained. The inner elixir was suspended in Cao An's palms. It was only the size of a thumb, but the coldness emanating from it was stronger than that of Mingguo. Even more domineering, the air around the inner alchemy quickly condensed with water, forming mist.
The giant toad corpse slowly sank into the mud. After just a few minutes, it was no longer visible, and the swamp in front of it returned to its original state.
"The master's magical skills are unparalleled and he is invincible."
"It's just the power of a sword. After all, cutting it into a tenth-grade treasured weapon is like eating tofu. If it were an ordinary treasured weapon, I'm afraid it would be a struggle. Didn't you see that its skin was covered with dense... The bulge looks like ice crystals. In addition to its strong defensive power, it can also emit venom, but Nian Sword is not an ordinary weapon after all, so I didn't give it a chance at all."
After a pause, Cao An took the inner elixir. This thing is very cold. When the time comes, he can supplement it with practice to enhance the chill of the true energy in his body.
"You have to restrain your instincts from now on. If there is danger, speak up. Don't just bark subconsciously. I'm afraid I won't be able to react for a while."
Lao Huang lowered his head and raised a paw to cover half of the dog's face, "Little demon, try your best."
This toad demon was much more powerful than it, and it was so frightened that it was naturally timid. For a moment, it forgot that it could still speak.
"Find a place to rest for the night. In a state capital, no matter how fast the two of us are, we can't reach the center tonight."
In the swamp, dry places are hard to find. Old Huang, riding the demon wind, searched for almost a quarter of an hour before he found a rare place. After checking that there was no danger in the surrounding area, he stopped to rest.
The night passed, and nothing happened. In the slightly cold lake, the breeze continued, bringing a bit of coolness. Such a temperature would not cause any trouble to Cao An and Lao Huang. Coupled with the [Mingyu Gong] practiced by Cao An, this Just getting close to the cold nature makes me feel more comfortable, and my true energy is much more active than before.
The early sun rose, and the golden light from the east fell on the cold lake. The brilliance reflected by the mirrors was really beautiful. Cao An put away his true energy and fell back to the ground, and then escaped from the dizzying golden light.
"Master, let's eat fish this morning."
Cao An was stunned for a moment and saw four or five fish already piled in the pit next to Lao Huang.
"Did you catch the fish from Na?"
"It's right over there. The water is very clear and there are fish like this in it. It's just a little difficult to catch, so I caught these five."
This fish is also strange. Its whole body is crystal clear, and its slightly darker bones can be clearly seen. Each one is about the size of a palm. There is no trace of color on its body, and even its glasses are white.
Seeing the expectant look in the old dog's eyes, Cao An smiled helplessly. He was familiar with the road. Lao Huang was a foodie. He had a choice. He must eat meat. Soon, the aroma of meat wafted out of this small island-like place, which made people feel hungry. Big move.
"My master's cooking skills have improved again, which is gratifying."
Cao An shook his head, "It's not a problem with my cooking skills, it's a problem with the ingredients. This fish seems a little special. It's much more fragrant than ordinary fish. It's strange. Is it because of the unique attributes here?"
He picked up a piece of fish and put it into his mouth. It was soft, glutinous and crispy. It was obviously freshly roasted, but a chill exploded from the tip of Cao An's tongue. It spread throughout his body in an instant, and his whole body was shocked.
Cao An's eyes lit up, "Gouzi, you have made great achievements."
He didn't have time to explain anything to Lao Huang, so he closed his eyes and felt the chill in his body. The chill spread in his body and was attracted by the true energy walking in the twelve meridians. It quickly penetrated into it and moved with the true energy. , merged into Dantian, just a moment's work, not only accelerated the movement of the true energy, but also added a touch of chill to Cao An's true energy in a very short period of time.
'Yes, I won't be able to completely refine the coldness of the Mingguo for a while. I have to find a place to practice, and the surrounding coldness cannot be too lower than the Mingguo, otherwise the power of the medicine and the coldness will spread faster. The difference between me and other martial artists Yes, they only need the power of medicine to enhance the true energy, but what I need more is the chill in the fruit, so I have requirements for the refining place. '
'But the coldness in the bodies of these animals that grow here has been refined by them long ago. It is most easily absorbed and utilized by the human body. It can make the true energy in my body have a high level of coldness in a short period of time, and even It is not necessarily possible to directly adapt to the chill in the center of Osamuze. '
Thinking of this, Cao Anxin was overjoyed.
"Old Huang, we may have to stay here for a few days. Take me to see the place where you caught the fish."
The old dog glanced at the fish that was still roasting on the fire, swallowed his saliva, and looked away from it with difficulty, "Master, follow the little demon!"
Old Huang was in front, running into the reed marsh, with Cao An following closely behind. This place was not far from where Cao An rested last night. It was only a few hundred meters away, but it was completely different here. The reeds were densely packed. The water source was covered by the swing, and the entire body of water was not deep, only as deep as the knees.
It is covered with dense reeds, the water is crystal clear, and those white fish live in it.
As soon as Cao An arrived, the wind started up, startling the water surface, and a slight ripple spread out. The white fish nearby dispersed instantly and turned into a white afterimage, swimming deeper and almost out of Cao An's sight.
"Is this so crazy? How did you catch him?"
"Don't move. Wait for them to come back and roll them up directly with your demonic power. But every time, you have to wait for a long time. Moreover, they will not swarm together, and the number they can roll up at one time is not large." Old Dog He said with a smile.
"A very smart fish, but this method may not be used a few times. Have you noticed that there are not many fish here?"
The old dog nodded, "Well, that's true. There were quite a few here at first, but after the little demon caught a few, the others seemed to remember this place and stopped coming here."
"Good place!"
Cao An activated his mental power and directly rolled up three white fish. The fish swung their bodies wildly, but the shackles of the mental power were not something that this fish could break free from. He could only watch as he escaped from the water and was trapped. When caught in front of Cao An, Wu Zi was still swinging his body.
"The strength is not small, let's go, it will be good if we know this place."
Returning to the island, this time, one person and one dog roasted and ate all the white fish. Cao An sat in the water, letting the water almost cover his neck. He sat cross-legged, with his five hearts upward, and concentrated on [Ming] Jade Gong] is a natural cage for the cold in the water source, blocking the escape of the cold.
The chill in the body was attracted by the true energy, and flowed back to the river. Along the route of the true energy, it was refined little by little, and finally returned to the Dantian, completely integrating into Cao An's true energy from the source, exactly as Cao An expected. Yes, he can still absorb the chill contained in the water, but the amount is too small, so small that it is almost negligible.
But this is a good sign. After all, the cold here is not strong. When we reach the center, the cold contained in the water source will be several times that of what Cao An is currently exposed to. In this way, we will lay a foundation here that can withstand a lot of cold. Once you reach the central area, you can directly absorb the chill in the water without restraint.
There is no need to resort to external objects, this process will be a bit long, but what Cao An needs most is patience and time!
He was not at all anxious about this.
