Chapter 28: Harvesting & Refining

After turning around, Xiao Ming could see what was attacking him.

It was a centipede with a frightening face and a brightly colored body, and two pairs of blood-red wings were flapping constantly.

'Seven-colored Flying Centipede! '

Xiao Ming recognized the species of this centipede and the corner of his mouth twitched unnaturally, feeling frightened because he only tilted his head to dodge it earlier.

The Seven Colored Flying Centipede was a highly venomous insect, not a high-ranking magical beast per se, but its venom is so strong that if a Dou Grandmaster is bitten on the head, would lose mobility on the spot and if serious, would be sent to heaven instead.

Xiao Ming's mere act of bowing his head just now was still very dangerous, after all, the insect might turn around, even though there were life preservation pills in the Storage Ring, he wouldn't die, but it would hurt like hell.

'Where did those two ambushers get the seven-colored flying centipede from, to place it here, how sinister.'

Xiao Ming cursed, after ordinary people came here, they would have lost their sanity and rushed over at the sight of the Green Rock Mystic Water.

And at that time, the Seven-Colored Flying Centipede, hidden among the corpses, would deal them an unexpected blow.

It is estimated that no one would be able to react.

The Seven Colored Flying Centipede, not having Xiao Ming's hobby of observing his opponent for a while, just wanted to get rid of this guy who had intruded on its territory now.

Buzz!

Increasing the frequency of its hind wings, the Seven-Colored Flying Centipede turned into a colorful flying shadow and flew towards Xiao Ming's head again.

"There's no end to it, is there?"

As mentioned earlier, the Seven Colored Flying Centipede itself did not have such terrifying strength, it only contained terrifying poison.

Losing the opportunity to attack by surprise and opting to attack directly head on, it could not pose much danger to Xiao Ming.

Xiao Ming's palm turned and the Magic Core Sword had appeared in his hand at some point.

On the flying seven-colored shadow, he casually struck a slash.

With a poof, the shadow split in two and fell to the ground.

A green poison gushed out of the two sections of the Seven-Colored Flying Centipede's limbs, which were constantly writhing, and the intense pain even caused it to let out a strange scream.

With a wave of Xiao Ming's right hand, a blue flame enveloped it, and in an instant, the Seven-Colored Flying Centipede was reduced to a cloud of ashes.

The sword was roasted again with blue fire to make sure it was clean.

Putting the sword in his storage ring, Xiao Ming directed his gaze towards the Green Rock Mystic Water in the center of the green pool.

'It's better to pick up the Green Rock Mystic Water first.'

Not wanting to touch the corpse-soaked green liquid, Xiao Ming selected a few small stones from the side and dropped them into the pool of water a few meters away, paving a passage.

Shadow Chasing Wind!

With a single step of his feet, his whole body jumped and stepped on those small rocks, Xiao Ming quickly approached the Green Rock Mystic Water.

As Xiao Ming gradually approached, the Green Rock Mystic Water emitted another snort, and the turquoise cactus emitted a burst of green light on its exterior.

An arrow of water shot out from within it and shot towards Xiao Ming.

'I knew it wouldn't be that easy!'

In the face of the attack, Xiao Ming seemed unperturbed and a peach blossom flame appeared in his hand, colliding with it.

The water arrows vaporized into a pile of white mist under the heat of the flame.

The Green Rock Mystic Water's self-protection mechanism was obviously not that simple, and apart from this water arrow, the Green Rock Mystic Water was still emitting green mist.

Unfortunately, all of this was useless in the face of Xiao Ming's Peach Blossom Fire.

In the end, Xiao Ming easily approached the Green Rock Mystic Water and stood in the space of about one meter.

Looking at the magnificent cactus-like object in front of him, Xiao Ming did not hesitate too much and slashed with his sword, cutting off its roots.

At that moment, an unexpected situation appeared, the cactus-like form of the Green Rock Mystic Water suddenly turned into liquid and was suspended in the air, a huge green liquid shot straight towards Xiao Ming who was nearby.

'How come there's more!'

Sensing that this attack was much more powerful than the previous water arrow, Xiao Ming's calm face could no longer be maintained.

He could only respond with a defense.

Boom!

A violent sound crashed into the rock cavity.

Fortunately, this attack did not cause Xiao Ming much trouble, only knocking him back a dozen or so meters.

Xiao Ming, who had been jerked backwards, left a dozen footprints of varying depth on the path.

Xiao Ming snapped his index finger, and the spirit quickly flew out leaving a white shadow and entered the Green Rock Mystic Water at lightning speed.

As soon as the spirit entered the Green Rock Mystic Water, it was like a wolf that saw a lamb, and its size directly increased several times in an instant.

A terrifying suction force came out of its body, pulling and quickly absorbing the Green Rock Mystic Water.

But the Green Rock Mystic Water was obviously not so easy to absorb, A faint wave of energy emerged from the Green Rock Mystic Water of more than ten square centimeters, actually compensated for the suction of the "spirit", for a while the two of them stagnated.

Not only that, Xiao Ming even felt that the Green Rock Mystic Water was mobilizing the energy of heaven and earth, obviously wanting to attack the Spirit as it had attacked him before.

Of course, Xiao Ming would not sit still and let Green Rock Mystic Water attack.

His fire-red Dou Qi shot out, shattering the energy gathered by Green Rock Mystic Water.

Then his soul power came into contact with the Spirit, and Peach Blossom Fire and Blue Crystal Fire were extracted from the Spirit's body.

The two beast flames appeared and emerged to envelop the Green Rock Mystic Water.

All of Green Rock Mystic Water's actions were driven by instincts of self-protection.

The wave of energy it used to repel the Spirit was significantly weakened, unable to counteract the Spirit's suction power, and drop by drop, the essence of the Green Rock Mystic Water was drawn into the Spirit's body.

As Spirit was born to devour the wonders of heaven and earth, the split essence of Green Rock Mystic Water could not much longer.

The origin drops of Green Rock Mystic Water entered Spirit's body and were immediately refined and absorbed.

'It is much easier and faster for a spirit to absorb Green Rock Mystic Water than it is for a human being! It is also safer than direct absorption by the human body'.

If the human body were to absorb these wonders of heaven and earth.

It would always risk great danger.

Take the Green Rock Mystic Water in front of him, if Xiao Ming wanted to absorb it himself, he would have to directly take the Green Rock Mystic Water and let it enter his body.

The human body was extremely fragile, and even a powerhouse Dou Emperor could not allow an unknown energy to ravage his body.

Therefore, before devouring it, Xiao Ming also had to prepare several body protective pills to protect his meridians from being damaged by the uncontrollable energy of the Green Rock Mystic Water.

Of course, this was not enough, the Green Rock Mystic Water would not be refined honestly.

He has to endure immense pain as it pushed through the fragile meridians of his body.

All in all, it is troublesome and risky for a person to swallow these things.

As long as the foreign object is not as powerful as the "spirit", the "spirit" can absorb it at will, without any danger.

For example, right now, the spirit had directly devoured the Green Rock Mystic Water and was unaffected.

This was the strength of Xiao Ming's cultivation of the Rise of Twin Spirits.

Other than that, an ordinary person could not improve his cultivation by devouring the wonders of heaven and earth, whether it was a strange fire or Green Rock Mystic Water.

However, when a "spirit" devours these things, it can return energy to the cyclone.

The Spirit master's cultivation will also naturally improve.

'Unfortunately, the current Spirit probably doesn't have the strength to directly devour Heavenly Flame.'

Xiao Ming directed the Spirit that had swallowed all of the Green Rock Mystic Water back into his hand and muttered as he looked at the Spirit that had taken on a more emerald green color.

The origin of any Heavenly Flame that exploded could burn the current Spirit to slag unless it was a Heavenly Flame type too young to do so.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to try to refine the other party by throwing the Spirit directly into the Heavenly Flame origin with a big grin like now.

'In order to devour the Heavenly Flame in the future to suffer less, it seems that I must devour more beast fires in the future, a beast fire cannot compare to the foreign fire, thousand will always be something useful, also need to find other wonders of heaven and earth, when the spirit grows up, then the Heavenly Flame that seems so terrifying will not be a problem'.

The Heavenly Flames, Xiao Ming would definitely devour them in the future, not to mention if he would get any from the simulator, just now, in the North-Western Region, he knew of the existence of three Heavenly Flames without a master, the Green Lotus Core Flame, and two Fallen Heart Flames.

Devouring a Heavenly Flame could grow his own cultivation and increase his offense.

With such benefits, only a fool wouldn't want them.

Of course, one Fallen Heart Flame had to be left for Jia Nan Academy.

Otherwise, Xiao Ming had already made his plans.

He would move immediately when he was strong enough to take the Green Lotus Core Flame first, and then the Fallen Heart Flame.

What, Xiao Yan's Flame Mantra evolution needs to devour the Heavenly Flame, you as his clanmate, shouldn't you be considerate of him?

Oh, touch your conscience, although it was good that Xiao Yan is from the same clan as Xiao Ming, even if Xiao Yan grew up, it would benefit him, but Xiao Ming felt that it was better to grow up himself than have to depend on others.

"Hehe." After laughing twice, Xiao Ming held the spirit, which had a somewhat turquoise color after absorbing the Green Rock Mystic Water, back inside the Qi Spiral.

This color meant that the Green Rock Mystic Water had not been fully refined, and the spirit should return to milky white when it was fully refined.

Obviously, the spirit's act of directly swallowing the rest of the Green Rock Mystic Water origin in one gulp just now was too hasty.

Xiao Ming now put the spirit back into his body in order to speed up the refining process, and at the same time, to receive the energy fueled by the spirit.
