In front of a green hill. ??????????????????
Hao Ruoyan said politely, "Elder Liu, I need to rent Tianhuo Pool for a few days. Is there a free pool now?"
Then Elder Liu looked like he was sixty or seventy years old. He took a look at Hao Ruoyan, and his face immediately showed a somewhat flattering smile, "Since Elder Hao wants to use it, of course there are free ones, even if I don’t have time, I have to have them. It's ready soon."
"Thank you Elder Liu."
Hao Ruoyan smiled lightly, stepped back and stood next to Zhou Shu.
Zhou Shu looked at Elder Liu and shook his head, a little speechless. He also rented Tianhuochi before, but Elder Liu didn’t put him in his eyes at all. He had a stern face without any expression, and he didn’t care about it. , And finally left a sentence, "All Skyfire Pools are used by people", and left directly.
As soon as Hao Ruoyan came over, Elder Liu immediately changed his face, and Elder Ke Qing was not as good as Elder Huzong.
Even now, Elder Liu didn't seem to have him in his eyes, completely ignoring him.
"Yes, both the 3rd and 7th are empty. Elder Hao, it is better to choose the 7th. The fire there has reached the third order."
Elder Liu took out a red array talisman and handed it to Hao Ruoyan, "The array talisman is here. You can open it with this. No one else can get in. You don't need to talk about the extras. Elder Hao can use it as long as you want."
Hao Ruoyan extended his hand to take it, and bowed slightly, "Thanks to Elder Liu, I will leave first."
"Eh, wait."
Elder Liu showed a bit of impatience on his face, and he hurriedly stood in front of Hao Ruoyan, "The old man has something to ask Elder Hao. I have not been able to go to Yanyun Valley, but now it is just right."
Hao Ruoyan sighed inwardly, knowing what was going on without saying it, "Elder Liu, please say it."
"I heard that Elder Hao and Hai Zhonglou have a good relationship. The best magic weapon is now in Hai Zhonglou?" Elder Liu took a few steps closer, his eyes flashed, and he stared closely at Hao Ruoyan. His hands were shaking slightly, almost reaching Hao Ruoyan.
Hao Ruoyan took two steps back, slightly bored in her heart, but there was still a lot of kindness on her face. "I don't know this very well, but Hai Zhonglou will explain about the best magic weapon in two months, and then Elder Liu will know."
"Oh. Really?"
Elder Liu was taken aback, and he began to think, but the wrinkles on his face were all squeezed together, except that his mouth was still open, like a cracked walnut.
"Elder Liu will know by then, I have to leave beforehand."
Hao Ruoyan nodded, and stepped back in a hurry. After a while, he couldn't see anyone.
Zhou Shu chased after him for a while, shook his head and smiled bitterly, "You can run so fast."
"I can't do it. Wait a while. There will be more questions. Ruoyan will be annoying to death," Hao Ruoyan stopped, her expression a little bitter, "You don't know how much they can ask...Oh."
Zhou Shu nodded, "Ruoyan, it will be fine in a few days, and I have to wrong you for a few days."
"There is nothing wronged," Hao Ruoyan smiled and handed the array talisman to Zhou Shu. "By the way, there is Tianhuo Chi on the 7th, Master Shu, go up and busy, if smoke doesn't bother you."
"um. Thank you."
Zhou Shu went up alone.
It was a small mountain about ten miles in radius, and there was a thick red cloud around the peak.
After opening the formation, I reached the top of the mountain in a short while. The scene here is completely different from the outside.
The top of the mountain at the foot is full of scarlet rocks, and in the middle is a large depression of dark red like gold lava. The magma kept boiling, and from time to time raging flames.
And the sky in the formation is also a fire, and the scorching sun seems to project all the energy here, forming a real-like heat wave waterfall, pouring down into the magma, with a terrifying momentum.
This is Liu Xiazong's Tianhuo Pond, indeed extraordinary.
In fact, it is not a big deal to arrange such a grand formation. What is more difficult is that the formation must be in operation at all times for hundreds of years, and cannot be stopped for a moment, because once it stops, the quality of the flames drawn by the Tianhuochi will decrease. . Only by igniting the fire day and night can it ensure that the quality of the fire will not decline and will slowly increase. However, it will take hundreds of years to reach Tier 3, and if Tier 4 is used, the formation will continue to operate for more than a thousand years.
The consumption of such resources and energy, the small sect cannot afford.
Zhou Shu walked to the corner of Tianhuochi and opened another layer of formation inside. A refreshing air suddenly hit, and he could no longer feel a trace of heat. This formation was prepared for the practitioner's refiner, and the sky-burning furnace was also inside. The magma in the center was led into the sky-burning furnace through the underground passage, forming small pools of fire, dedicated to the practitioner's refinement.
Of course, it is impossible for a cultivator to go directly to the refinery in the Heavenly Fire Pond. Like a general vein condensing realm cultivator, if they go to the center, they will be roasted directly into coke.
Zhou Shuan sat in front of the stove with a focused expression.
He stretched out his hand, and a ray of flame suddenly jumped from the fire pool, suspended in the furnace, and kept jumping.
For refining equipment, fire control is the most basic, and it is also the first thing Zhou Shu needs to master.
Most materials need to be changed by flame to be formed, but it is by no means simply throwing the material into the fire. The process is quite delicate, especially for higher-order materials. A slight difference in fire control will destroy the structure of the material. , The aura is lost and scrapped directly.
Zhou Shu has learned a lot about fire control, but it was the first time to actually get started, but he didn't find it too difficult, because of this process, he had already deduced and calculated many times, and all that was needed was getting started.
He has practiced many times in the Sea of Consciousness, and now he is just moving out.
The flames were no more than an inch long, constantly changing appearances under the guidance of spiritual power, sometimes stretched, sometimes shortened, and sometimes scattered into pieces... and finally turned into a small ring of fire. Upon closer inspection, the flame seems to be imprisoned in an invisible and innocent transparent ring, flowing back and forth. The flame inside is exactly the same in color and luster. There is no distinction between an inner flame and an outer flame, which is quite strange.
"It's a good way to use a fire ring to exercise fire control skills. It can condense the flame into a fire ring that looks like inside and out. Fire control is a good start."
This is what Xin Lao said Zhou Shu always remembered.
Zhou Shu nodded slightly, and fished out another flame from the fire pool.
Soon this time, the flames circled obediently, forming a new ring of fire on the side of the previous ring of fire. The two rings of fire are almost the same size, they are very close, but they are not sticky, which is quite strange.
Zhou Shu didn't pause, the faster the speed, the right hand raised and raised, the flames flew one after another.
Not long after, nine fire rings were hung in the stove. They turned back and forth, flying lightly, like butterflies, quite beautiful.
It seems very simple, but the cohesive effort in it is far beyond imagination. You know, in order to form these nine rings of fire, Zhou Shu separated nearly a thousand spiritual power streams, each of which is more than the thinnest thread. Fine, just to separate these spiritual powers outside of the body without being confused, is not what ordinary cultivators can do, let alone control them perfectly to guide the flames.
hard to imagine.
But for Zhou Shu, accomplishing this is just the beginning of mastering fire control. (To be continued.)
