In fact, this was indeed the case. When Chen Mo poked through the crystal ball in the forty-two holes of Ice and Fire, a huge repulsive spiritual power instantly poured into his limbs and bones, causing Chen Mo's spiritual veins to expand violently.
"It seems that the limit has been reached... Let's go here!"
Seeing a storm of ice blades gathering in the passage in front of him again, Chen Mo's pupils shrank, and he quickly inserted the spirit stone into it, quickly pushed the door open, and then closed the stone door with a bang.
"call......"
In just a few breaths, with his back against the thick stone wall, Chen Mo could still vaguely hear the whining sound of the strong wind whistling through the passage outside.
He patted his chest lightly, feeling so dangerous that he almost had to resist these difficult ice stubbles again.
The deeper into the Ice and Fire Cave, the greater the power of the oncoming ice blades and black flames. Before the thirty-seventh Ice and Fire Cave, it was the limit that Chen Mo could bear, and he felt powerless to move forward.
Chen Mo looked around the stone room. It was not a big place. There was a half-foot-high stone table with a crystal ball on it, which looked roughly the same as the one outside the door.
There is also a straw futon under the stone table, exuding a faint aura, and it looks like it is for the monks to sit on.
With a thought in his mind, Chen Mo released the Cloud Crystal Insect on his body and controlled the Cloud Crystal Insect King to give it an order. If an unknown creature approached and attacked immediately, he would have time to react.
More than sixty Cloud Crystal Insects lay in a dark mass near the stone gate. The pale golden Cloud Crystal Insect King lay lazily on Chen Mo's shoulder, looking like he was about to fall asleep.
Chen Mo roughly checked the futon. After there was no problem, he sat cross-legged on it. After refining the two repulsive spiritual powers he had just absorbed outside the door, Chen Mo took the initiative to touch the crystal ball placed on the table.
"Buzzing..."
The moment Chen Mo injected spiritual power into the traction, the crystal ball began to tremble violently. At the same time, light blue mist visible to the naked eye gathered from all corners of the stone chamber. In Chen Mo's horrified eyes, he was It was absorbed into the swirling crystal ball and transmitted into Chen Mo's spiritual veins.
cold! Bitingly cold!
Chen Mo has never felt the cold since he became a cultivator, and today in the Ice and Fire Cave, he experienced the feeling of being a mortal again.
Chen Mo's teeth kept chattering up and down, making a squeaking sound. His eyebrows and eyelashes were instantly stained with a thin layer of frost, as if he had been forced into an ice hole in the twelfth lunar month of winter, as if he had even lost his consciousness. He and his body were frozen together, and even the thought of thinking almost became a luxury.
Drowsiness kept coming from his mind. Chen Mo pressed his fingers hard on the outside of his thigh. The slight scar that penetrated his flesh finally forced him to wake up for a moment. He mustered up his energy and used the existing Yin spirit power to dispel it. The frost spirit in the body.
In fact, the guard in Tsing Yi said something less. When new disciples go to the Ice and Fire Cave for the first time, they cannot choose a cave that suits their own cultivation level to enter. Since they are new here, they simply cannot withstand the domineering tempering of two extreme spiritual powers. Fainting and even regression in cultivation are inevitable.
Of course, Chen Mo is no exception.
However, he was lucky. He was exposed to the cold spiritual energy first. Theoretically, it was connected with his Yin Vein spiritual energy, so the feeling of rejection was not too strong.
Otherwise, at the end of the week, Chen Mo would be no different from the previous disciples who were greedy for merit and had to be rescued by the guards.
Chen Mo didn't know these things. At this time, he had just cleared the cold air from his dantian. He was like a general commanding thousands of troops on his own battlefield, struggling to resist the steady influx of spiritual energy.
Every time a part of the cold air is dissipated, Chen Mo's Yin Spiritual Power can increase its circulation speed by a large amount, causing the originally stagnant spiritual veins to widen again and become full.
When all the cold energy was refined by Chen Mo with his Yin spirit power, he breathed a long sigh of relief as if he had been enlightened. In fact, judging from the actual situation, the cultivation speed here was more than twenty times faster than that of his cave!
Just before Chen Mo could relax for a few breaths, the crystal ball suddenly reversed inexplicably, and the cold air disappeared without a trace as if it had been evaporated. It was replaced by a huge scorching air, which passed through the guiding left hand in an instant. , burning all the places where the spiritual veins flowed.
The Yin spirit power was compressed back into the Dantian again. Chen Mo gave a wry smile. This Ice and Fire Cave is indeed well-deserved. By practicing here, you will not only improve your cultivation, but also your spiritual consciousness. If you don't resist, you will faint. , can you not work hard?
He had no choice but to give in first. When the fire spiritual power weakened, Chen Mo once again controlled the spiritual power in his Dantian to expel the scorching gas. This cycle continued and he never tired of it...
Four hours later, the entrance to the Ice and Fire Cave.
When the guard in Qingyi saw that Chen Mo hadn't come out yet, his original determination to win disappeared without a trace, and he began to feel a little uneasy.
If you are on duty here, you can only contribute two points to the sect every day. Why do most of the disciples come here even if they are fighting over it? It's just for the benefits given by the monks who entered the Ice and Fire Cave. Booking a better location, and sending some spiritual stones to the disciples who come and go, in a month will be no less than if you work hard to accept the task.
The disciples who are new here will not be introduced in too much detail, just to let them understand the rules here and bring gifts to the guards next time they come back.
Therefore, the guard in Tsing Yi did not tell him that there were air waves under the cave, nor did he say that he could not choose the right stone room to practice. He still thought about waiting for the red light of the token in his hand to go to the stone room to rescue Chen Mo.
But four hours have passed, and the token has not been shown, and no one has come out. Looking at the mark, he has entered the forty-two cave of Dizi. Let’s not talk about whether he can bear it or not. The sect’s contribution alone requires one hundred and sixty-two. It's ten o'clock!
How could he, an inner disciple, make so many contributions? Even core disciples don’t dare to be so extravagant!
Just when the Qingyi guard was distracted, a person slowly walked out from the darkness of the cave. It was Chen Mo who had been inside for four hours!
The green-clothed guard was stunned for a moment, and then he said in a wakeful voice: "Junior brother, you have figured it out! It's so easy for me to wait like this, senior brother! What's the result of your practice this time?"
"It's okay." Chen Mo said noncommittally: "Let's settle the contribution points first." After that, the token was slapped and marked on the specific token of the Qingyi guard, and the 160 contribution points were spent like this. .
Seeing that Chen Mo had made so many contributions without blinking an eye, the guard in Qingyi suddenly felt a chill in his heart. It seemed that this person was not an ordinary inner disciple. He must be someone with a profound background. If he were to treat him the same way as a registered disciple, I'm afraid inappropriate.
He suddenly took out a jade plate in his arms and said with a smile: "Junior brother, look at my memory, I actually forgot to tell you the precautions here. When you go back, remember it by heart. Next time you come to give me some You reserve a better stone room!"
Chen Mo glanced at him in surprise, and seemed to have a clear understanding in his heart. He took the jade plate calmly, thanked him and returned along the same route, and quickly rushed back to his cave.
"I have gained a lot from this trip to the Ice and Fire Cave. Four hours is actually worth the nearly seven days of hard training in the outside world! If you convert it like this, one day of training in the stone chamber is equivalent to twenty days of training in the outside world. !”
"And as I gradually move closer to the Thirty-sixth Cave of Tianzi, the speed will become faster and faster. It is really possible to reach the ninth level of Qi Refining within five years!"
"But the price is also quite high..."
Chen Mo helplessly glanced at the token with only five contribution points left. He originally thought that he had a lot of knowledge, but he didn't expect that he would get rid of everything in just one practice.
After taking out the herbal food for the cloud crystal worms and releasing dozens of spirit worms to feed, Chen Mo hurriedly stood up and left. The Ice and Fire Cave could not be visited for the time being. The first task was to complete the two tasks that the sect had forced upon him. Ten things.
.......
Baicao Garden is exactly where Chen Mo is going. It is a vast medicinal field. Generally speaking, most monks who take on planting tasks will come here. Depending on the task, the type of completion is also different. Some are Taking care of healing herbs, some use spiritual magic to stimulate rainwater to water the spiritual fields. As long as you are careful and patient, the work is still very simple.
The Baicao Garden is directly under the management of the sect's foundation-building elder. For the sake of his own cultivation, the latter outsources a large amount of it to disciples in the Qi refining stage. He comes regularly to collect a certain amount of herbs. As for how to plant them and how to recruit people, that is refining. It’s a matter of Qi period disciples.
Following the instructions on the jade slip, Chen Mo quickly arrived at the location mentioned above. In the thatched house at the entrance of the medicine garden, he met Senior Brother Li who had issued the planting task.
There are more than twenty spiritual fields similar to Baicao Garden in Fuyun Sect, and they are all in short supply.
Chen Mo pushed the door open and walked in. It happened that Senior Brother Li had just collected his skills. He was a Qi Refining Dzogchen monk. He glanced at Chen Mo and said doubtfully: "Are you the one who took over the task of serving the Moon Minghua?"
"That's right." Chen Mo took a deep breath and bowed slightly.
"Are you familiar with the habits of the Moon Flower? Let me tell you in advance. If you raise these three Moon Flowers to death, you will have to pay a hundred points as compensation!"
Chen Mo laughed and said, "Senior brother, don't worry."
Seeing that he was so sure, Senior Brother Li shook his head and took out a wrinkled walnut: "Wear it with you before entering the Herb Garden. Do not cause any damage when you enter. In the least case, the herbs will be compensated, in the worst case, the cultivation will be abolished." After a pause, he continued: "I'm going to test you. If you haven't found the Moon Flower within an hour, just leave as soon as possible. I don't care for idlers here."
After taking the walnuts, Chen Mo said goodbye to Senior Brother Li and walked out of the thatched house. Then he looked at the simple door sign made of a few wooden frames. The interior was so foggy that it was difficult to see the whole picture.
