Chapter 618 - Searching for Earth Fire
What you said makes some sense. After all, it"s been thirty thousand years since the last time the Deicide of the Golden Armor was killed by the Flipping Cloud Demon Saint, and even if its lifespan hasn"t been used up, it should still be dead due to exhaustion. However, it shouldn"t be an easy feat to reach the peak of the heavens."Also... Furthermore, with just the two of us, will we be able to return back to the Beidou World? There is a spatial storm, a terrifying spatial energy existence, in the spatial pa.s.sageway. Even if we can find the spatial crack successfully, I think it would be difficult to pa.s.s through it! "
thought for a while before revealing a helpless expression. He naturally knew about spatial pa.s.sages, and the so-called spatial pa.s.sageway and spatial cracks were two completely different concepts.
But the s.p.a.ce channel was an existence that was a level higher than the s.p.a.ce crack. It was not as simple as shattering s.p.a.ce; it was a channel that was connected to each other in two different s.p.a.ces. Because it involved an extremely high level of s.p.a.ce Laws, it was extremely unstable.
Although the spatial tunnel could greatly shorten the distance between the two s.p.a.ces, it was still very likely for them to encounter a spatial storm. A spatial storm was a chaotic and mixed type of spatial energy that existed in a world of nothingness between s.p.a.ce and s.p.a.ce. The appearance of this spatial energy was not stable, but once they met, even Chao Fandaneng would not be able to easily deal with it."For you to be able to think of such a far distance is somewhat beyond my expectations, but you are very lucky. I once obtained an extremely rare Void Talisman from an ancient monument.
This was the first time he had heard of it, and at the same time, the suspicions he had towards Huang Mang grew more and more, because Li Mu felt that this was too much of a coincidence. Li Mu did not expect this to happen.
Although the other party had said that the reason he knew so much was because of a close friend of his, the moment Li Mu mentioned that it was difficult to pa.s.s through the spatial tunnel, the other party had immediately said that he had an extremely rare Void Talisman that could block the attack of the spatial storm. With such a coincidence, it was difficult for Li Mu to believe that he had hit so accurately."Kid, what"s wrong? Why are you so silent? What are you thinking?"
Seemingly seeing that Li Mu had something on his mind, Huang Mang asked with doubt."What are you thinking? I"m suspecting you! "
Li Mu looked at Huang Mang with a bland smile. Upon hearing Li Mu"s words, his pupils immediately shrank, but he did not reveal much of a change in expression. Instead, he spoke with a slightly cold tone: "You suspect me? What do you doubt about me? What do I have to make you doubt me? "
"Hehe, I suspect that this Rattlesnake of yours really only has one Void Talisman. It can"t be that you said you only have one Void Talisman just because you couldn"t bear to give it to me!"
Li Mu"s tone changed, and said with a smile yet not a smile.
"You! I"m just a Void Talisman, that was something that I risked my life to obtain in an ancient monument. Don"t worry, one Void Talisman is enough to protect the two of us! I have already sworn that I will advance and retreat together with you and I won"t leave you behind. I don"t want my heart demon to devour my body and die under the divine tribulation, never to reincarnate! "
Hearing that Li Mu was actually suspecting that he was hiding something from the Void Talisman, Huang Mang immediately heaved a sigh of relief."I hope you can keep your promise. What should we do next?" Are we going out, or are we going to stay here? Even though your plan doesn"t sound too bad, it"s still very dangerous for us to go to the summit of Heaven"s End just like that. After all, this is the world of the G.o.d Slaughtering Bugs, so if we were to meet them in the middle of our journey, we wouldn"t be as fortunate as we are now! "
After understanding the origins of this s.p.a.ce of despair, Li Mu considered his next plan. Leaving this s.p.a.ce of despair was naturally the first thing he would do, but to leave it unscathed was not an easy thing."Leaving now?" If that"s the case, let"s temporarily rest for a while, when the time is right, we can make our move, this place is not like the other places, we only have one chance, if we fail, it is very likely that we will be treated as blood food by the Deicide Bug, so it"s best to be cautious. "
Huang Mang said in a serious tone. Upon hearing this, Li Mu nodded his head, he did not want to take action so quickly, since he only had one life, so he had to be careful in everything.
After discussing with Huang Mang for a while longer, Li Mu and Huang Mang both opened up a small private room in the cave, and then both of them entered the stone room that they had created. For safety"s sake, Li Mu left the bird outside the hall, saying that it was to protect the safety of the secret place, but in truth, Li Mu wanted the bird to monitor Huang Mang.
Sigh, looks like it"s best to refine the Five-element Five-Colored Flag out. If not, then there really is no guarantee, because according to Jin Xue"s jade slip, the Five-element Five-Colored Flag is made from gathering the power of the five elements, and not only can attack, it can defend, and it can also create array formations and restrictions. Not only is it a spirit treasure that combines the five elements together, what"s even rarer is that it"s even a famous imitation of a Heavenly Spirit Treasure, I presume it"s even more miraculous! "
Sitting in the stone room that he had created, Li Mu thought twice about it and decided to prepare to refine a Five-element Five-Colored Flag. The reason why he had such a plan was because Li Mu had taken a fancy to the characteristics of the Five-element Five-Colored Flag being one with the five elements, because according to the Sky Miasma Jade Strip and Huang Mang"s explanation, although this G.o.d Slaughtering Bug was immune to the five elements, but after the five elements merged, it could still trap it.
had basically prepared all the materials needed to refine the Five-element Five-Colored Flag, the least of which were just a few mystical crystal of five elements. The mystical crystal of five elements Li Mu had sufficient amount of them, and the Jin Yichang and Xuan Chong from the Golden Rhino Peac.o.c.ks and the two from the Mysterious Fire Scarlet Dragon"s clan had given some of them to Li Mu. Other than preparing to refine the Eastern Emperor Bell, Li Mu also had a lot of other materials left over, which he could use to refine the Five-element Five-Colored Flag.After making his decision, Li Mu took out the jade scroll that he obtained from Jin Xue, and started to carefully study the method to refine the Five-element Five-Colored Flag.
After an hour, Li Mu kept the jade slip in his storage ring. After careful examination, he discovered that the refining process of the Five-element Five-Colored Flag did not have any big problems, it was just some ordinary smelting materials, drawing arrays, condensing runes, and other steps. The only tricky thing was that the Five-element Five-Colored Flag required a large amount of True Essence fire in order to refine it, because the grade of the materials used to refine the Five-element Five-Colored Flag was not low.
Originally, if Li Mu had only used up a little bit of True Essence to ignite his True Essence, it was not really a big deal for him, but the key point was that there was not a single bit of Essence in this s.p.a.ce of despair, and activating True Essence for a long period of time would definitely consume a huge amount of True Essence. Even if Li Mu used crystal s and pills to recover his True Essence, it would still be difficult for him to refine this Five-element Five-Colored Flag using his own True Essence."This is such a c.r.a.ppy place, yet there"s no Essence. What should I do? Could it be that there"s really no hope in refining this Five-element Five-Colored Flag?"
Li Mu muttered with an anxious face, but when he accidentally looked at the ground, his eyes suddenly lit up.
"That"s right! "If I can find a place with rich earthfire and refine the materials with it, then it is not impossible. Yes, with the help of earthen fire, I am anxious and confused. In the cultivation world, there are a few refiners who rely on their own true essence fire, and with the help of skyfire and even demon beast fire, they can be said to be everywhere."
After coming up with a solution, Li Mu"s mood improved greatly. However, before he could rejoice for long, he met with another problem, and that was that he did not know if there would be any Earth Fire in this s.p.a.ce of despair. If there were any, where should he go find them?
"According to what Chaotic Sky said, Earth Fire is a Flame Essence that evolved from the source of a realm deep in the earth. It becomes an underground fire pulse by extending itself, and the Earth Fire that we cultivators talk about is usually the Earth Fire within the fire pulse. As long as you go deeper into the earth, there should be an existence of Earth Fire.
Although he might encounter G.o.d Slaughtering Insects, he didn"t have a choice. In this world where G.o.d Slaughtering Insects were the dominant force, if he didn"t have a method to suppress the G.o.d Slaughtering Insects, the odds were against him, and Li Mu also had a very bold idea, which was to bring a portion of G.o.d Slaughtering Insects out of this s.p.a.ce of despair. In order to implement this bold idea, he had to refine a Five-element Five-Colored Flag out first.
After making up his mind, Li Mu took out an earthen yellow jade talisman. This yellow jade talisman was the Hidden Escape Symbol that Xu Ruqing had given him back in the Five Spirit Holy Lands.
Looking at the Hidden Escape Symbol in his hands, Li Mu was confident that as long as his luck wasn"t that bad, he wouldn"t be discovered by the G.o.d Slaughtering Bugs if he directly encountered it underground. As long as he lost the threat of the G.o.d Slaughtering Bugs, he would be able to search for the Earth Fire without any worries.
After thinking everything through, the yellow light on the jade talisman suddenly increased dramatically, and transformed into a yellow light shield that protected him inside, while Li Mu"s figure suddenly disappeared without a trace.
Because his consciousness could not leave his body and he was unable to lock onto the direction, Li Mu could only identify the deepest part of the body and frantically escaped underground with all his might. He was vigilant throughout the entire time, even though he had the concealment ability of the Hidden Escape Symbol, Li Mu felt that it was still better for him to be prepared.As he continued to travel underground, what made Li Mu speechless was that he did not sense any hint of the fire attribute aura at all. This meant that he did not find any traces of earth fire underground, and it was not only that, Li Mu felt that he might even be headed in the wrong direction.
In normal times, Li Mu could match up to his powerful Late True King Stage in terms of his spiritual consciousness. Even deep underground, he could feel it through his spiritual sense, but unfortunately, this s.p.a.ce of despair was extremely difficult on a person"s Spiritual Sense Power, and even Li Mu"s powerful spiritual sense was only able to leave his body ten meters away. It was because of this that Li Mu lost his sense of direction, which was something he hadn"t expected before coming to this underground.
All of a sudden, Li Mu who was moving around like a headless fly in the depths of the ground had a look of joy on his face. He could only sense that there was something strange with his consciousness that was ten metres away from the ground, and without thinking, he immediately controlled his body to rush to the right. Very quickly, a light appeared in front of his eyes, and he arrived at a cave that was too deep to the ground …
