Chapter 248 You Please Go First



Following that attraction, Ning Zhishui finally found its existence.

The piles of bones formed a small hill, and it was at the bottom of the hill, emitting a faint halo of light.

Perhaps due to its birthplace, its flame is not the common orange-red, but much lighter, like milky yellow.

Seeing Ning Zhishui approaching, it seemed to dance a little and looked very happy.

"Don't worry, wait for me."

Ning Zhishui talked to it and began to clear the bones blocking it.

It takes time to refine the spiritual fire. After all, it is a foreign object, and it requires some patience to enter the dantian of the body.

Ning Zhishui was moving the bones when he suddenly heard a sound.

"Hmm? Is anyone there?"

"I heard someone talking, and it was a woman!"

"Who is this person? Are they here for...?"

"Shh, keep your voice down, go and take a look."

Ning Zhishui couldn't help but stop what he was doing and looked towards the front left.

Because there are too many "bone mountains" here, the vision is not so clear, just like a maze.

Ning Zhishui hadn't heard any noise along the way, so he thought there was no one here. But now it seemed there were more than just one person, and there were at least four of them.

After looking at the spiritual fire, Ning Zhishui was overwhelmed.

She was in trouble. She had already moved most of the mountain of bones away. It was too late to stop now. As long as the other party got close, they would definitely notice the existence of the spiritual fire.

The footsteps were approaching, and soon two men and three women appeared in Ning Zhishui's sight.

All five of them are very young, and their looks and dress are outstanding.

Ning Zhishui looked them over and didn't find anything related to the sect. However, there was a bead necklace on the wrist of a woman made of cat-eye glass, which seemed to be the favorite ornament of the women of the Chen family.

Chen family.

Old man Chen.

Chen Xingzhi.

Ning Zhishui smiled at them and said, "I didn't expect to meet someone here, but I have something to do right now. Could you please step aside? Thank you very much."

Those people were still surprised to see Ning Zhishui.

The red scorched soil and the white mountain of bones, against such a strange background stood a young girl in red, beautiful and elegant, with a charming smile.

"You came to Huoyan Valley alone? You are so brave!" A male cultivator couldn't help but speak.

But some people noticed what Ning Zhishui said.

Is she busy now? What is it?

As soon as he took a look, he immediately found the trace of the spiritual fire!

"What, what is that!" The pink-dressed woman in the middle stretched out her slender jade finger, her eyes wide open, staring at the tiny flame in surprise and joy. "Could it be that I'm dazzled?"

"Spiritual fire? There is actually spiritual fire here! Brother Qingyu, we really made a fortune!" said another woman in white with a smile.

"Is it really a spiritual fire? We are lucky on this trip." The woman in purple was the one wearing the cat-eye glass beads.

The two male cultivators also showed their joy, staring at the spiritual fire without blinking.

"Ahem." Ning Zhishui said, "Let me remind you, I was the first to discover this spiritual fire, and I was also the first to come here."

After she said this, the five people opposite laughed.

Some people laugh because they find it funny, while others laugh out of ridicule and mockery.

"Little sister, do you know what a situation is? There are five of us, and you are only one." The male cultivator known as Brother Qingyu curled his lips, "We are already a gentleman by not attacking you, killing you, or robbing you."

"Brother Qingyu is right! So what if you encounter an opportunity? You can't keep it!"

"That's right, if you know what's good for you, just get out of here. We're already letting you go by not killing you right away. If you still want to steal the spiritual fire, you're being ungrateful!"

"Of course, if you're not convinced and want to fight us, we'll be happy to accompany you."

Several people spoke one by one, their eyes were unfriendly, and their words were full of threats and coercion.

Five people stood in a row, all looking at Ning Zhishui who was standing alone opposite them. Some of them had already clenched their swords, as if they were ready to take action at any time.

Under such gazes, Ning Zhishui pursed his lips, then took a few steps back and made a gesture of invitation, "In that case, then... you go first."

"laugh--"

The purple-robed female cultivator wearing beads smiled first, her eyes full of contempt.

If Ning Zhishui insisted on snatching it, they would laugh at her for overestimating her own abilities and seeking her own death.

But if she really gave in easily now, they would think she was spineless.

Ning Zhishui didn't say anything, but stood a little further away, then looked at them with his arms folded across his chest.

Seeking death?

The person who does this will definitely not be me.

Ning Zhishui looked towards the small flame——

Wan Gu, it depends on you.

I don’t know if it was because it felt Ning Zhishui’s gaze and expectation, or because it was angry when it saw its beloved master being driven away by someone else, but at this moment, the Wan Gu Ling Huo seemed to tremble, as if it would go out at any time.

"Oh my god, why does it look like it's about to disappear?" The female cultivator in white looked worried.

"It looks very weak, probably just born not long ago? That means it should be easy to tame." The purple-clothed female cultivator's eyes lit up and she couldn't help but move closer.

"Sister Chao Meng, among us, only you and Brother Qingyu have fire spiritual roots. You two can give it a try."

"Yes, the three of us have no chance of this spiritual fire."

The purple-robed female cultivator smiled upon hearing this and looked at Qingyu, "Brother Qingyu, who do you think should try first?"

Qing Yu put one hand behind his back, straightened his back, and raised his chin with dignity. "After all, I have a single spiritual root of the fire element. For safety reasons, I'll do it."

As soon as he said this, Chao Meng's face froze.

She originally thought that this brother who was always gentle to his sisters would give her the opportunity out of courtesy. After all, she had dual spiritual roots of wood and fire, and her physique was very suitable for being carried by spiritual fire.

But I didn't expect that he wanted to take the lead as soon as he opened his mouth!

He has only one spiritual root. If he succeeds in one go, then what role do I have?

She wanted to negotiate a little longer, but Qingyu didn't give her a chance and walked straight towards the spiritual fire.

He pushed aside the few remaining bones that were blocking the view, exposing the spiritual fire right before his eyes.

The Ten Thousand Bones Spirit Fire, although it is fire, is of a feminine nature. The temperature emitted by the flame is not scorching at all. Instead, you will feel a little cold when you get close to it.

This will undoubtedly give people a misconception -

This kind of fire is not very strong and the temperature should not be very high.

Similarly, Qingyu felt no sense of crisis when facing it. After observing it for a while, he simply stretched out his hand.

Ning Zhishui couldn't bear to watch it and silently moved his mouth, making a "tsk" sound.

The next moment, there was a scream that shook the sky—

"ah--"
