Chapter 25: Bone Refining
Why was Bai Xiangtian so shocked when he saw Gu Xiaoxing taking out the spiritual marrow?
Let's put it this way, one hundred ordinary spirit stones are equivalent to one middle-grade spirit stone, and one hundred middle-grade spirit stones are equivalent to one high-grade spirit stone, and the value of spiritual marrow is even more than that of high-grade spirit stones. How can this not surprise people? Bai Xiang
All the spiritual stones in the sky storage bag combined cannot compare to this small piece of spiritual essence.
He is not from a grassroots background. His father is the second generation elder of the sect, and his uncle is the eldest elder of the sect. However, he is not as wealthy as an ordinary outer disciple. Before, he did not even have the oil and water in the inner kitchen.
He looked down upon it, and now, he was sore!
Gu Xiaoxing pondered for a while, and soon his expression became focused, with determination in his eyes, and he grasped the spiritual marrow circulation technique tightly. Suddenly, a large amount of spiritual power poured in, and the soul-eating insects trembled between his eyebrows. He ate like crazy, replenishing his consumption while repairing.
The price also began to rise slowly.
In fact, the spiritual power contained in a piece of spiritual marrow is almost the same as that of a high-grade spiritual stone. The only difference is that the purity of the spiritual power is much higher than that of a high-grade spiritual stone. It seems that it has been refined thousands of times without any impurities. At this moment, it seems as if it has been processed by a pill furnace.
After being tempered again, it became more solid. It seemed like it was the first time for the soul-devouring insect to taste such "deliciousness". It was trembling constantly and was so excited.
One hour, three hours, five hours passed, Gu Xiaoxing was still immersed in cultivation. In this alchemy furnace, the improvement of cultivation seemed to become extremely slow, but every step was solid, not as good as the last time he absorbed the spiritual essence.
In that way, due to the rapid improvement of the cultivation level, the foundation is weak. This pill furnace is very magical. It can continuously temper the body under the roasting, and it seems to be condensing the cultivation level.
Time gradually came to the seventh day, that is, on this day, the fifth elder returned, and there was another person who came with him, it was Du Siyu.
The fifth elder swept the furnace with his consciousness, showing a trace of surprise, and then said something to Du Siyu who was standing aside. Du Siyu's face softened slightly, hesitating a little, bowed and left again.
The fifth elder stayed in the cave and tinkered for a while, and finally came up with some medicinal powder. The medicinal powder was weird, the grains were as fine as dust, transparent and colorless, and could hardly be seen with the naked eye. Then he went out with the medicinal powder and seemed to continue to catch it.
The thief left, but turned a deaf ear to Bai Xiangtian's cries.
Gu Xiaoxing knew nothing about any of this, and he was reaching a critical moment in his practice. Until the sun rose on the eighth day, as the whole alchemy furnace shook slightly, his eyes suddenly opened, and there seemed to be a touch of depth in his eyes, slightly.
Once condensed, the power emitted returned to the body.
Seventh level of Qi Condensation!
It is not an ordinary seventh-level Qi condensation. After several days of tempering in the alchemy furnace, Gu Xiaoxing's cultivation is more powerful and has a more solid foundation than ordinary spirit-devouring bodies. Even compared to orthodox monks,
It would be a little stronger, and with the green smoke in his body, he would have the confidence to fight against the eighth level of Qi Condensation!
However, Gu Xiaoxing was not excited at all, because his cultivation reached the seventh level of Qi Condensation, which meant that he could not avoid the outer sect competition. Thinking of another round of fighting and killing, he felt very tired, and the more he thought about it,
He became more and more angry, and suddenly glared at Bai Xiangtian fiercely, and said angrily: "My nephew, what are you looking at!"
As soon as he heard this, Bai Xiangtian was also angry, and subconsciously wanted to say something: "Look at you." But as soon as he thought about it, wouldn't that be equivalent to admitting that he is his eldest nephew? Instead, he sneered and said: "Ling
The marrow is also used up. I don’t know how long you can hold on. I really want to see if your mouth is harder or your bones are harder!”
"Better than you anyway... eh? Bones?" Gu Xiaoxing wanted to reply, but suddenly thought of something, rolled his eyes, and opened his mouth to shout, "Elder, Fifth Elder... Are you here? Disciple?
I have something to say..."
After eight days of continuous burning, coupled with the substantial improvement in cultivation and physical body, the heat generated by the alchemy furnace no longer caused Gu Xiaoxing to suffer as much as it did at first, so he could speak.
Bai Xiangtian had a mocking look on his face, as if he were looking at a clown, but he didn't stop him and allowed the other party to yell.
Gu Xiaoxing didn't pay attention to the other party's taunts, and kept shouting loudly until a long time later, a clear and impatient voice came from outside the alchemy furnace.
"Don't shout, Master is not here."
"I wonder when the elder will come back?"
There was silence outside the furnace, and Gu Xiaoxing continued to shout. After all, Lu Yatou was too young. Finally, she couldn't help but said: "Master said, we have to catch the thief, and we won't return home in the next few days!"
Catch a thief?
Gu Xiaoxing stopped talking and swallowed guiltily, hesitating and tangled, as if there was a battle between heaven and man in his heart, and finally gritted his teeth and made a decision.
"As long as the fifth elder doesn't come back, there's no need to be afraid!"
With a wave of his hand, countless fish bones flew out of the storage bag and instantly turned into a large bone cocoon to cover Gu Xiaoxing, insulating him from the heat.
At this moment, far above Shiling Peak, the fifth elder was secretly arranging the spiritual pool, scattering some medicinal powder, and sneered in his heart: "This medicine is colorless, odorless and has no effect. Even if you are a foundation-building practitioner, even the slightest touch will definitely cause pain on your head.
There will be sores and pus on the soles of your feet, and at the same time, dark seeds will be planted, and you will not be able to escape with your wings!"
If the persistent fifth elder knew that the fish thief he was obsessed with was using the leftover fish bones to ward off disasters in the alchemy furnace of his cave, he would probably spit out a mouthful of old blood.
Bai Xiangtian stared blankly at the scene in front of him, then laughed, "Haha... Although I don't know where you got so many fish bones, you don't naively think that just a few broken bones can isolate the formation of divine patterns on the inner wall of the alchemy furnace.
Hot breath, right?"
But gradually, Bai Xiangtian was stunned again. He realized that something was wrong. If they were mortal bones, they should be burned into dregs quickly. But after a while, the fish bones wrapping Gu Xiaoxing turned red, but that was all.
, seems to really resist the heat.
In the cocoon, Gu Xiaoxing's pressure was greatly reduced. Although he still felt very hot, he was much more relaxed than before. Of course these are not mortal bones, they are all the bones of spiritual fish. He still has such fish bones in his storage bag
There were quite a few. After all, almost every one of the sixteen spirit fish that were roasted was half a foot tall. It was true that they had accumulated a lot.
"I've always wanted to get rid of it but never had a chance. I didn't expect it to be of great use here." Looking at the red-hot fish bones around him, Gu Xiaoxing sighed, feeling that he was a genius who made the best use of everything.
Suddenly, Gu Xiaoxing found some fine milky white liquid droplets rising from the red fish bones. Curious, she raised her hand and touched it lightly. The liquid beads actually blended in from between her fingers, and the slightest coolness entered her fingers. Gu Xiaoxing suddenly felt that
The fingers seemed... a little stronger.
He couldn't help but be startled, and tried again. Ruojue found out that those milky white liquid beads overflowing from the fish bones actually had the ability to strengthen the physical body!
Gu Xiaoxing does not know that the essence of the entire spiritual fish is actually in the fish bones, especially the bone marrow in the spine, which is the essence of the essence and a great medicine.
This is also the reason why the fifth elder is so angry. He spent a lot of money to get these spiritual fish. They were nourished with green lotus from the fry on. Each one is a treasure. He only used it when refining some extremely precious elixirs.
He would be willing to kill just one of them, but now there are more than a dozen missing. The fifth elder’s heart is bleeding. Even at this moment, he is still thinking about catching the thief!
More and more liquid droplets overflow from the bones, which are the essence tempered by the alchemy furnace. Gu Xiaoxing pulls them to continuously merge into itself, like drinking nectar, refreshing in waves.
However, looking from the outside, the fish bones were burned crimson, like a fireball surrounding Gu Xiaoxing.
"So what's the use of those fish bones?" Bai Xiangtian curled his lips and looked puzzled. Wouldn't it be hotter to be wrapped in such a big fireball?
A few more hours passed, and the fish bones floating around Gu Xiaoxing had been completely refined into dregs, and the overflowing essence was absorbed. Then with a wave of his hand, several more spirit fish bones emerged...
"Are you crazy?" Bai Xiangtian was speechless. He felt uncomfortable at this moment because his spiritual stones were about to be exhausted. He only hoped that when the second seventy-nine hours passed, everything would be over.
But he was disappointed...
When the ninth day was about to pass, the fifth elder did not come back. Finally, Bai Xiangtian's spiritual stone was completely exhausted. When the tenth day also passed in a hurry, when the eleventh day came, his body's cultivation level was less than 10%.
At this moment, Gu Xiaoxing slowly opened his eyes as the last fish bone beside him turned into debris. He no longer had the feeling of being in a sea of fire. His body seemed to have undergone some kind of qualitative change. He raised his hand and removed the
After cultivation dissipated, I only used my body to resist the hot breath. The terrifying hot breath rushed through my palms, just like the high sun shining in July. It no longer stung, but instead felt hot and itchy. It was a bit comfortable after getting used to it.
The next moment, Gu Xiaoxing disappeared all his cultivation, and his robe instantly turned into ashes, but his skin was only slightly red, not too uncomfortable. With a thought, he used his spiritual power to tie his clothes, turned into a robe, and threw it off.
He shook his sleeves and said: "A mere pill furnace actually wants to refine my lonely little star!"
