31 Ziwei Skyfire Appears I should not have cooperated with Luo Qingyao if I had known...
After thinking she had seen through Nan Si Ning's true nature, Luo Qingyao began to look down on her in her heart, and even thought with some mockery that she had been afraid of such a stupid person before.
After suppressing the contempt in her heart, Luo Qingyao continued to solicit information, "It saved your life, no wonder you treat it so well and even feed it with Seven Spice Fruit. What else does it eat?"
Nan Si Ning showed a hint of vigilance and asked, "Why are you asking this?"
Seeing that Nan Si Ning was a little suspicious, Luo Qingyao quickly covered it up and said, "I have some spiritual fruit here. I don't know if it likes it, so I asked you."
Nan Si Ning glanced at her suspiciously for a few times, then said in an unquestionable tone, "Bring it out and let me see it!"
Luo Qingyao felt a little aggrieved. Why did Nan Si Ning seem so familiar with ordering her around?
But in order to better understand the temperament and preferences of this little beast and lay a good foundation for building a relationship in the future, Luo Qingyao could only obediently take out a few red and yellow spiritual fruits, show them to Nan Si Ning, and then feed them to the little beast.
Nan Si Ning snatched it away and said, "I told you your credit with me is ruined, so I have to check to make sure you haven't done anything wrong!"
This blatant disdain made Luo Qingyao so angry that she gritted her teeth.
Nan Si Ning's dislike and hostility towards her were clearly displayed on his face. Every move he made was full of rejection. Every word he said pierced Luo Qingyao's heart, making her angry.
After retracting her hand, Luo Qingyao also used several cleansing techniques on her own hands, showing that she also hated and despised Nan Si Ning.
Nan Si Ning and I are indeed naturally incompatible! Luo Qingyao thought bitterly, the heroine and the supporting actress in the book are indeed destined to be enemies!
Nan Si Ning didn't seem to care at all. After washing the spiritual fruit with water, he fed it to the little beast himself.
The little animal squinted its eyes while eating, looking like it was enjoying it very much. After finishing one, it opened its mouth and waited for Nan Si Ning to feed it. It seemed that it trusted and was close to Nan Si Ning very much.
This scene almost made Luo Qingyao angry again. It turned out that she was the one who was wronged. She specially contributed the fruit to allow Nan Si Ning and the spirit beast to develop feelings!
After eating the fruit, the little beast rubbed Nan Si Ning's hand affectionately, causing Nan Si Ning to laugh out loud. Luo Qingyao was afraid that she would be really angry to death, so she simply turned her head away and didn't look at them.
Luo Qingyao didn't come to disturb him, so Nan Si Ning was happy to be alone and continued to practice with his fire spiritual power.
With the "unfathomable" little beast guarding him, Nan Sining is not worried that Luo Qingyao will do anything bad to him.
Seeing Nan Si Ning working so hard, Luo Qingyao felt a sense of crisis and hurried to cultivate. Unfortunately, she had a top-grade ice spirit root, and in this small secret realm filled with fire spirit power, the gains were very small, almost negligible. It could only be said to be a psychological comfort.
The magic weapon suddenly fell into silence.
Both of them entered the state of cultivation, and no one noticed. While Nan Si Ning was cultivating, the little beast that was guarding her obediently beside her noticed that the surrounding fire spiritual power was rushing towards Nan Si Ning, and immediately observed curiously.
He watched with his dark eyes as the fire spiritual power was absorbed into Nan Sining's body, tempering her tendons and veins, and finally entering into her dantian, solidifying layer by layer. He then understood that this thing was useful to her!
So the little beast moved its two front paws, and a lot of fire spiritual power around it quickly gathered in the middle of its paws to form a small ball of light. When the small light ball was the size of an egg, the little beast stuffed it into Nan Si Ning's belly, and it fell steadily into her dantian, causing the fire spiritual power in Nan Si Ning's dantian to surge a lot.
Nan Sining only felt the warmth in his dantian. The energy of the light ball was very strong, yet gentle.
Seeing that Nan Si Ning seemed to be enjoying it, the little beast felt greatly encouraged and quickly continued to use its black little claws to rub out one light ball after another and stuffed them into Nan Si Ning's dantian in his abdomen.
After Nan Sining noticed those light balls, she refined them one by one. The fire spiritual power helped her break through the realm again and reached the tenth level of Qi Refining in one go.
When you reach the tenth level of Qi Refining, you can try to build the foundation. However, the foundation building is not very stable at this time. People with good talents will work hard to cultivate themselves to the great perfection before building the foundation.
Nan Sining also didn't want to build a foundation because Luo Qingyao hadn't built a foundation yet.
In the sect competition, those who are practicing Qi Refining will compete with those who are practicing Qi Refining, those who are practicing Foundation Building will compete with those who are practicing Foundation Building, and those who are practicing Golden Core will compete with those who are practicing Golden Core. Except for the first place in each major realm, who can challenge those of higher levels, others cannot challenge those of lower levels.
Nan Sining wanted to take this opportunity to beat Luo Qingyao openly, but she couldn't directly advance to the foundation-building stage. So when the spiritual power in her dantian became more and more, she could only beat and squeeze it again and again, compacting it tighter and more solid.
When Nan Sining felt full, he immediately stopped practicing to avoid damaging his dantian.
After taking a deep breath, Nan Si Ning looked inward at his tendons and dantian. He didn't expect that practicing in this secret realm would be so helpful and lay a solid foundation for his foundation.
When Nan Si Ning caught a glimpse of his own spiritual root, he was surprised. That reddish fire spiritual root had actually grown a bit longer?!
Can spiritual roots still grow? Nan Si Ning hissed. She had never seen such a thing before!
The original character was a useless heroine because her five spiritual roots were useless, making cultivation difficult. Furthermore, the book doesn't mention the growth of spiritual roots. If there were, it would have happened to Luo Qingyao, and the author couldn't have failed to mention it.
After thinking for a long time, Nan Si Ning still couldn't come to any conclusion, so he simply stopped thinking about it.
Anyway, it is definitely a good thing that the spiritual roots are growing. The stronger the spiritual roots are, the more helpful it is for cultivation.
Nan Si Ning slowly opened his eyes, feeling a little dazed. Seeing the little beast still sitting obediently beside him, Nan Si Ning reached out and touched its head, then took out a spiritual fruit and gave it to him.
After the little beast ate obediently, it continued to look at Nan Si Ning eagerly.
Nan Si Ning saw the desire and anticipation on its face. He understood that it wanted to eat: "You have a bottle of fasting pills. Eat it if you are hungry."
The little beast showed a reluctant expression, and Nan Si Ning poked its head helplessly: "You can't bear to eat your own, so you want to eat mine, right?"
As he said that, he finally took out the bottle of pills, gave one to the little beast, and swallowed one himself.
The little beast was happier eating the fasting pills than eating spiritual fruits. Its eyes were curved with joy, as if it was smiling, just like a child who finally got to eat candy.
Luo Qingyao happened to see the little beast eating the fasting pill as if it were some kind of magic elixir, and was secretly surprised. Even the easiest to refine fasting pill was eaten so happily by this spirit beast. How could it be so easy to feed it?
She wanted to ask Nan Si Ning about it, but thinking of Nan Si Ning's attitude, if she revealed her intentions, it would probably make Nan Si Ning more defensive, so she still couldn't ask.
But she kept this in mind.
Although she is not an alchemist, as the sect master's disciple, she certainly has no shortage of elixirs. Not to mention the most common fasting pills, third-grade heart-clearing pills, fourth-grade soul-nourishing pills and other elixirs are not difficult for her to obtain.
Nan Si Ning was only willing to use this kind of ordinary elixir to feed it. Don't blame her for using higher-level elixirs to kidnap the spirit beast when the time comes.
Who made Nan Si Ning so poor and stingy?
Thinking of this, Luo Qingyao told herself to be patient and not to act too hastily. If Nan Si Ning noticed, he would probably be on guard early.
After being bored for a while, Nan Si Ning asked, "Hey! Luo Qingyao! Where are you going? We've been hanging around with you for several days now, you have to give us some definite information, right?"
Luo Qingyao said unhappily, "Just follow me. It's enough for you to lie down comfortably. Why are you asking so many questions?"
Luo Qingyao has been taking Nan Si Ning with her for so long, but there is no trace of Ziwei Tianhuo, and she is very anxious. According to the plot of the original novel, shouldn't Ziwei Tianhuo jump out on its own to find Nan Si Ning?
How come there has been no sign of Ziwei Heavenly Fire for several days?
Along the way, they also encountered many high-quality exotic fires, including underground fires, sky fires brought by falling stars, and the natal fires of powerful demons. However, Luo Qingyao didn't like any of them and was only thinking about the Ziwei Sky Fire.
At this point, even if Nan Si Ning didn't ask, Luo Qingyao started to have doubts in her heart.
So she pondered the plot she remembered a few more times and said, "It seems that staying in the magic weapon like this is not a good idea."
It is normal that Ziwei Tianhuo does not come to visit since Nan Si Ning does not show up.
Seeing Luo Qingyao chase him off his magic weapon, Nan Si Ning didn't care. He stood up, patted his butt and said, "Your magic weapon is not good. It doesn't even have a magic circle to keep you cool. It's really shabby."
Luo Qingyao: ...
Nan Si Ning has gotten used to the fact that a dog can't spit out ivory.
When the two people got off the flying magic weapon, the male cultivators asked Luo Qingyao with concern what was wrong, whether the magic weapon was not working properly, and whether they could take care of her.
Luo Qingyao dealt with everyone very patiently, and the smile on her face looked very gentle and beautiful.
Nan Si Ning had to sigh, he was indeed someone who had been tempered in the entertainment industry, look at that business-like smile, look at the way he took care of everyone with little effort, ordinary people really couldn't catch up even after practicing for several lifetimes.
No wonder they can raise so many fish!
Although she felt a little impatient inside, Luo Qingyao still responded to the concern of the lickspittles with good temper, and then asked everyone to continue moving forward.
The strange fires in this secret realm, like the spiritual beasts and demon beasts, many have their own habitats. Yaowang City has a rough map of this secret realm, so the disciples of Yaowang City have a rough idea of where the strange fires are.
But Ziwei Heavenly Fire is not among them.
As the heavenly fire ranked at the top of the strange fire list, it can ignore all strange fires and rules and wander around the entire secret realm, that is, it can go wherever it wants, all at its own pleasure.
It does take luck to find such a strange fire.
Luo Qingyao had always wanted to tie up Nan Si Ning because she knew the characteristics of the Ziwei Heavenly Fire. She wanted Nan Si Ning's luck to attract the Ziwei Heavenly Fire so that she would have the opportunity to take action.
The others didn't know that Luo Qingyao's target was the Ziwei Heavenly Fire, but as bootlickers, they felt that the strange fires they had encountered before were indeed not worthy of the fairy-like Junior Sister Luo, so they were not surprised every time Luo Qingyao refused.
Hu Yan gradually figured it out and asked Luo Qingyao, "Do you already have a desired Strange Fire in mind? That's why you look down on other Strange Fires?"
Luo Qingyao smiled and said cautiously, "Not really. It's just that my spiritual roots are quite special. Even with the help of the cultivation method, I still need to find a more suitable strange fire to unleash its greatest power."
Before Hu Yan could answer, Nan Si Ning sneered, "Luo Qingyao, you asked Senior Brother Hu to help you, but you didn't even tell him that the strange fire you wanted was the Ziwei Heavenly Fire? That's so insincere!"
Luo Qingyao is so bold that she even dares to fool an alchemy practitioner like Hu Yan.
Although Hu Yan is still only a third-grade alchemist, his opportunity for promotion is not far away.
Although a fourth-grade alchemist is not as rare as a fifth-grade alchemist like Chen Tangyuan, he is still a well-known figure. Luo Qingyao actually played such a trick on him. She was really bold and presumptuous.
Nan Si Ning's tone was a bit sarcastic, and Hu Yan was immediately shocked. He asked Luo Qingyao in disbelief: "Is what she said true? What you want is actually Ziwei Skyfire?"
That night, Luo Qingyao only said that she wanted to ask Hu Yan for help to obtain the strange fire in the secret realm. Hu Yan also guessed that the strange fire that Luo Qingyao was interested in must not be an ordinary strange fire, but he did not guess that it was the Ziwei Heavenly Fire. Moreover, the conditions she proposed were tempting, so he made the Heavenly Oath.
If he had known that what Luo Qingyao wanted was the Ziwei Skyfire, he would not have agreed so easily!
I didn't expect that I would be tricked by such a little girl!
Hu Yan was filled with anger.
Luo Qingyao's face looked a little ugly, and she glared at Nan Sining with murderous intent.
Although I don’t know how Nan Si Ning knew that she wanted the Ziwei Heavenly Fire, she said it with the intention of ruining her plans!
"Second Brother, listen to me, I don't care about Ziwei Heavenly Fire or not..." Luo Qingyao explained anxiously.
Nan Si Ning snorted sarcastically and said deliberately, "Luo Qingyao, you said that yourself. If the Ziwei Skyfire really appears later, don't grab it!"
"You--" Luo Qingyao was so angry at her that she thought Nan Sining was deliberately blocking her!
If she didn't admit it, then even if the Ziwei Skyfire appeared, Hu Yan would have a reason not to help her; but if she admitted it, it would be a disguised admission that she deliberately tricked Hu Yan. Neither option was what Luo Qingyao wanted.
Luo Qingyao was feeling conflicted and wavering, and she really wanted to cut Nan Si Ning into pieces right now.
Seeing Luo Qingyao's predicament, the lickers tried to excuse her, saying, "The Ziwei Heavenly Fire is a legendary fire. How can it just appear like that?"
"What's wrong with Junior Sister Luo wanting the Ziwei Heavenly Fire? Who wouldn't want such a powerful strange fire?"
"Nan Si Ning, Junior Sister Luo was so kind as to bring you along, don't repay her with evil!"
…
A group of people were making a lot of noise. Before Nan Si Ning noticed anything, Hu Yan was already annoyed and shouted, "Enough! Stop making noise!"
The others immediately shut up and fell into an awkward silence.
Hu Yan's face looked very ugly, and the look he gave Luo Qingyao was very unfriendly.
If the Ziwei Heavenly Fire appears and Luo Qingyao wants to obtain that Heavenly Fire, according to the agreement of the Heavenly Dao Oath, he must do his best to help Luo Qingyao complete the task of taming the strange fire, otherwise the Heavenly Dao may judge that he has not fulfilled his promise and impose punishment on him.
But is Ziwei Tianhuo so easy to subdue? If he paid a huge price to help Luo Qingyao subdue Ziwei Tianhuo, but the information Luo Qingyao gave him was of little value, wouldn't that be a huge loss?
Facing Hu Yan's heavy gaze, Luo Qingyao also felt the pressure and her scalp felt numb.
Even though she was a sword cultivator, a sword cultivator in the Qi Refining stage was nothing compared to a Golden Core stage cultivator, and the environment of the Strange Fire Secret Realm suppressed her innate spiritual roots.
Just as the atmosphere was becoming increasingly tense, someone suddenly pointed to the right and shouted, "Look what that is!"
Everyone turned their heads to look and saw a rose-red light appearing in the endless yellow sand. It looked gorgeous and dazzling, and very beautiful.
Luo Qingyao blurted out: "Ziwei Skyfire!"
Nan Si Ning also squinted his eyes to look over. The color was like the gorgeous sunset glow in the sky when the sun sets in the evening. It was a dreamy color, changing between colors like girlish pink, rose red, and aqua red. It seemed as if there were tens of millions of kinds of red, and as if there was only one kind of red. It was gorgeous and charming, and very beautiful.
This Ziwei Sky Fire is indeed a powerful exotic fire. Even its color is so outstanding that Nan Sining is moved!
Luo Qingyao was the first to move. She quickly stepped on the flying magic weapon and flew towards that side.
The others only reacted then and followed.
Nan Sining also took out his flying magic weapon and took the little beast with him to fly towards the direction of Ziwei Tianhuo.
As she flew, she warned the little beast, "We will definitely fight later, so remember to stand away, okay?"
The little beast looked at her for a while, not sure if he understood what she meant.
Soon everyone landed, and Nan Sining saw a purple myrtle sky fire flickering in the round pit that looked like an altar.
The color of the Ziwei Heavenly Fire is also a mixture of various reds, which is beautiful and gorgeous. Just by this appearance, it can capture the hearts of many female cultivators.
It flew around there, and the long flaming tail it left behind was like a dancer's mermaid skirt, ethereal and light, and extremely agile. The whole flame seemed to be dancing, revealing a happy atmosphere.
A strange fire like Ziwei Heavenly Fire has its own intelligence, so it is not surprising that it has emotions.
As soon as Luo Qingyao saw the Ziwei Skyfire, she ignored everything else and shouted, "Second Brother, help me!"
Then he raised his sword and rushed towards Ziwei Tianhuo.
Nan Sining was secretly shocked when he saw Luo Qingyao's aggressive look. It seemed that she was determined to get this strange fire!
And judging from the magic weapon she took out, it must have been prepared long ago.
Although Hu Yan had a grim expression on his face, he could only accept his fate and go up to help, thinking of the oath he had made to heaven.
But in his heart, he strongly disagreed with Luo Qingyao's approach. With Luo Qingyao's cultivation level in the Qi Refining Stage, she wanted to subdue the Ziwei Heavenly Fire. She was really overestimating her own abilities!
If he had known that Luo Qingyao was such a greedy person, he would not have reached a cooperation with her.
Hu Yan was filled with regret.
Ziwei Tianhuo's self-entertainment was interrupted, and its joyful mood turned directly into anger. Luo Qingyao pounced towards it, and it went straight to meet her.
Soon, the Ziwei Heavenly Fire hit Luo Qingyao's sword heavily. In just two breaths, her sword melted and vaporized directly, leaving no liquid.
Luo Qingyao was also knocked out and flew backwards uncontrollably. If Hu Yan hadn't caught up with her and caught her, she would have probably flown dozens of miles away.
Just one strike revealed the power of the Ziwei Heavenly Fire, shocking many people, and many people couldn't help but take a few steps back.
Nan Sining did not retreat. She only felt that the fire spiritual power in her dantian was a little violent, but it was quickly suppressed.
Luo Qingyao's attack failed, and she was very unwilling to give up. After she stood firm, she shouted: "Second Brother, all the brothers, it is a rare opportunity for me to encounter the Ziwei Skyfire today. Please lend me a helping hand. After the success, Canglan Sect, my master, and I will all thank you handsomely!"
Hu Yan didn't feel much after hearing this, instead his expression became even uglier.
The other male cultivators seemed to be energized and responded loudly to Luo Qingyao. When they saw Luo Qingyao rushing towards Ziwei Tianhuo again, they followed her.
However, there were a few who, although they agreed verbally, were not very active in their actions. When others rushed forward, they took a few steps back, fearing that they would be implicated.
Nan Si Ning saw that the time was almost right, so he said to the little beast beside him, "Stay away. The Ziwei Skyfire is quite powerful. Even if you are a fire-type beast, you won't be able to withstand its attack."
The little beast saw Nan Si Ning walking forward, so it followed him. Nan Si Ning turned around and glared at it, and then it slowly stopped and looked at Nan Si Ning aggrievedly, as if Nan Si Ning was going to abandon it and run away.
Nan Si Ning cruelly withdrew his gaze and flew towards the Ziwei Skyfire.
At this time, Ziwei Tianhuo was fighting with everyone.
The bravest among them is naturally Luo Qingyao.
Although she was only in the Qi Refining stage, judging from her appearance, Nan Sining thought she should have reached the great perfection of Qi Refining.
I really didn't expect that she, who was only at the eighth level of Qi Refining when she entered the Luoshui Secret Realm, has now reached the great perfection of Qi Refining, and it has only been more than a month!
It seems that Luo Qingyao is also extremely serious and hardworking in her cultivation.
At this time, she held a sword in one hand and a white jade plate in the other. No one knew what kind of magic weapon it was, but it could actually withstand the attack of Ziwei Sky Fire. Luo Qingyao was able to get such a powerful magic weapon in such a short time. People really underestimated her means and abilities.
What Nan Sining didn't know was that Luo Qingyao was also full of anger at this time. She had prepared the magic weapon to subdue the Ziwei Skyfire before leaving the sect and heading to the Luoshui Secret Realm, but it was stolen clean in the Luoshui Secret Realm!
If all her things had not been stolen, she wouldn't be in such a miserable state now.
If she meets those two little thieves again, she will use the Ziwei Heavenly Fire to burn them to ashes and destroy their souls!
Luo Qingyao gritted her teeth and threw the white jade plate in her hand towards Ziwei Tianhuo.
Although Hu Yan was the strongest, he was the most passive and lazy. He was helping Luo Qingyao share the pressure brought by the Ziwei Skyfire, but in fact he was not using his full strength.
Nan Si Ning observed the battle situation and determined that those bootlickers could not cause much damage to Ziwei Tianhuo. Hu Yan also deliberately let them go. After only Luo Qingyao, the main fighting force, was left, he took out his sword and rushed over: "I'll help you!"
Just when Luo Qingyao thought that Nan Si Ning came to help her, she saw her slashing the white jade plate in Luo Qingyao's hand with a sword!
