Duo Bao jumped up in time to see Huang Shisan walking towards the back. His fat body had lost some weight in a short amount of time, and his clothes were covered in grease.
DuoBao shook his head. "Lazy fellow!"
Duo Bao rolled his eyes. He looked just like a person, how could he have the appearance of a mouse!
Xu Tianyuan was completely unaware of this. Once the pain in his body had stopped, his other hand took a step forward, moving towards an even hotter place.
Huang Shisan looked from afar, holding a kitchen knife and circulating his Innate Qi, he kept chopping at the trees around him. These were all good things, it would be a pity to not bring them home, since he had a storage bag in his possession.
Huang Shisan was the kind of person who would throw things away if he didn't go out.
How could he not find something to return to when he had traveled all the way to this damned place? Since the Fructus Putaenospermi could not be eaten, it had to be handed over.
The two of them had no idea how Duo Bao had gotten a large flock of Fire Ravens to leave. This little guy was simply too mysterious.
Time slowly passed. Even though it was still night time, this place was still very hot!
One day and one night passed. When it was night once again, Huang Shisan fell asleep after eating his fill on the tree.
Xu Tianyuan was already scrawny to the point of being skin and bones, yet his spirit, energy, and divine were even more condensed. Every inch of his blood was burning, becoming even more tenacious.
His entire palm was burning hot, red in color, as though a red light was seeping out from his palm. The fresh blood that was flowing through his veins were all reflected out, causing Xu Tianyuan to truly feel that his own blood was starting to boil.
"Ahh …"
Xu Tianyuan opened his mouth and let out a breath, allowing him to calm down.
Every complete cultivation technique was divided into four stages, Beginner's Initiation, Small Success, Large Success, and Completion. As for the Jade Travelling Cast Sword Tactic, the first stage, it was currently advancing extremely quickly. Xu Tianyuan felt that it would be difficult to reach the Perfection Stage, but reaching Large Success Stage here should not be a problem.
The premise was that no Fire Ravens had come to disturb him!
Duo Bao rolled his small eyes as he looked at Xu Tianyuan in shock. Xu Tianyuan's toughness was beyond his imagination.
The Black Crow Forest was quiet because no one had entered.
On the other hand, in Xu Tianyuan's area, aside from the occasional rolling of the volcanic magma, there were no other sounds of bubbles breaking.
Huang Shisan saw that Xu Tianyuan did not eat nor drink, but he was still persevering. He was slightly moved, this Junior-apprentice Brother Ye was a madman amongst lunatics, and what made him feel that Xu Tianyuan was even more crazy, was what was behind it!
"Great treasure!" "And now?"
Another day passed. Xu Tianyuan asked the little mouse, "Do I want to go down?"
"What do you think?" DuoBao was very cunning, he did not give a straight answer!
Xu Tianyuan saw that there was a gigantic boulder in the middle of the volcano, it was blazing hot enough to support him!
Xu Tianyuan clenched his teeth. He couldn't bear to part with his child, and couldn't bear to part with himself.
He gritted his teeth and his expression changed. He used his strength to push himself forward and flew towards the volcano's crater.
"Junior Apprentice Brother Cai!" Without caring about the pain and heat, he stopped and ran forward. He stretched out his hand to grab forward and saw that Xu Tianyuan was on a big rock at the crater of the volcano, in that strange position again, but this time, Xu Tianyuan's entire body was trembling, as if he wouldn't be able to hold on for long.
Huang Shisan wiped off his sweat: "Junior-apprentice Brother Cai, why are you trying so hard? You said that we needed to go down to cut down some trees, then we would leave after we finished harvesting the Fructus Putaenospermi. You're courting death!"
"I want to die, that's why, Thirteenth Senior Brother …. You won't understand! "
Huang Shisan did not understand, but Xu Tianyuan understood, there shouldn't be many good days left for the Buzhou Realm. He had promised the Ancient sword ancestor, that in order to protect the entire Buzhou Realm, he would need to be stronger.
Xu Tianyuan believed that since he had obtained the two ancient swords from the sword ancestor, it definitely wasn't a coincidence that he had run into this little unfathomable thing called Duo Bao.
Others might not understand, would not understand, would not understand, but it was extremely likely that he was the one who was responsible for the safety of the entire Buzhou Realm, if … The ancient war was the truth!
What made Xu Tianyuan even more nervous was that if this kind of place could only allow him to reach perfection on the first level, then what would happen to him in the future? What about the other eight positions?
It was a long way to go!
"There is something in this world that I do not understand? I always thought I understood! " Huang Shisan said with disgrace.
Duo Bao at the side expressed his dissatisfaction. He raised his claws, but didn't say anything in the end.
It could be said that it was a pain that he had never experienced before in his entire life. He felt his body twisting and turning, and he felt that his bones and blood meridians were not just burning, they were melting.
To refine a piece of ore, one had to first purify it before it would melt and remove impurities. Only in this way would it be refined to its purest state.
But Xu Tianyuan's body had clearly not melted into water like ice, yet he felt this. In his entire body, aside from the upper, middle, and lower parts of his body, the dantian didn't move, the rest … Everything was melting. He couldn't see it, and he couldn't even see it from the inside. Everything was blurry. Even his eyes were being absorbed. Everything in front of him was pitch black. It was almost as if … He died!
His body was brimming with vitality, but there was no sign of breathing, only impurities that kept flowing out.
As the impurities flowed out of his body, they were immediately melted by the scalding heat and evaporated.
Huang Shisan was dumbstruck. Duo Bao jumped onto his shoulder and said, "Big Fatty, it's useless for you to cultivate like this. See he didn't do anything, you have to work hard!"
"Tch!" Huang Shisan's thoughts were not on cultivation at all, who would care about all these!
Slowly, Xu Tianyuan felt himself melting, becoming water, becoming water vapor, slowly condensing, once again becoming water. Then, it started to take shape, from his limbs to his bones and meridians, every time his flesh and blood started to form again!
Xu Tianyuan couldn't even tell if he was thinking too much, or if his body had truly undergone such a huge change!
The only thing that didn't move were the three dantian regions, which were like three glowing spheres in his body. As everything was reconstituted, true energy began to flow, turning from a small stream into a surging river. With a single flow, an even greater power started to form in his body.
Xu Tianyuan opened his eyes and saw the light in front of him. Closing his eyes, he saw veins that were like great rivers within his body, surging waves.
His bones were not as pale as before, but they had an indescribable luster, as if they were evolving, like the fingerbones he had obtained at that time. However, they were not that powerful, and were instead on their way to becoming a sword bone.
"Ahh …"
Xu Tianyuan had just jumped up, and wanted to rush into the lava to try.
