That piece of animal bone was obtained from a lot drawing competition when he was one year old.
Ever since he got the animal bone, his grandfather and aunt had been looking forward to the day when he would be able to resonate spiritually with that animal bone.
Unfortunately, to this day, he has not been able to cause the slightest change in the animal bones, and he himself has already given up.
He always kept the animal bones on his body. In the dead of night, he would take them out and play with them, hoping that one day he would be able to experience the wonders of the animal bones.
But over the years, there has never been anything unusual about the animal bones.
However, today's animal bones are obviously different from usual ones.
He looked carefully and saw traces of red light blooming from the animal bones.
The increasingly intense burning sensation, with the flash of red light, gradually spread from the animal bones, making it unbearable for him to cling to the waist of the animal bones.
"strangeness… "
With a strange look on his face, Nie Tian put the animal bone in his palm and tried to sense it with his spiritual power.
Peering with his mind, he seemed to see more small red lights from inside the animal bones. Those lights released orange-red flames inside the animal bones, as if they were burning.
"The orange-red flames, isn't that the color of the flame Yun Song condensed when he fought with Yun Song before?" His expression moved slightly.
At this moment, he temporarily withdrew his attention from the animal bones, and instead thought about the details of the battle with Yun Song.
He suddenly remembered that when he rushed away from those orange-red flames, most of the fire in the flames splashed out.
However, it seemed that some of the fire light that flew towards the animal's bones did not splash outward.
It seems that some flames have been left behind forever...
"Could it be that those orange-red flames fell into the animal bones?" Nie Tian gradually grasped the context.
As he was thinking secretly, the animal bones became increasingly hot to the touch, and the originally dark brown animal bones became red and translucent like a red-hot iron.
The unusually high temperature made his palms hurt, and he had to stand up and place the animal bones on the stone table.
He stared wide-eyed and saw that the animal bones seemed to be forged by flames, with firelight flashing from them from time to time.
The strange state of the animal bone did not last long. After a while, the animal bone became dim again, as if the fire left by Nie Hong inside had burned out.
After the high temperature subsided, Nie Tiancai reached out his hand again and pressed his fingertips on the animal bone.
Closing his eyes, he felt carefully with his fingers, as if he could see the inside of the animal bones, with sporadic firelight still flickering.
After a while, the sporadic firelight inside the animal bone disappeared. The animal bone completely returned to its previous color, and there was nothing special about it anymore.
Nie Tian continued to play with it for a while, trying to find the wonder in it, but found nothing.
After a long time, there were still no new changes in the animal bones, so he had no choice but to give up and collect the animal bones again.
However, this abnormality made him pay special attention to the animal bone.
For a period of time after that, Nie Tian was strictly prohibited from going out because Nie Donghai discovered that there were several Qi practitioners of unknown origin wandering around the Nie family.
Nie Donghai knew very well that those unidentified Qi practitioners must be from the Yun family, or they were the guests of the Yuan family who took orders from Yuan Qiuying.
Even the Yun family and the Yuan family did not dare to kill Nie Tian openly and openly in Black Cloud City.
The only thing they can do is to find some new faces. After the matter is done, they can disassociate themselves from those new faces and let those people leave Black Cloud City forever.
In order to prevent Nie Tian from being killed, Nie Qian kept an eye on him all day long and did not allow him to step out of the Nie family.
Likewise, Nie Tian did not leave the Nie family for three months. He had been practicing Qi Jue with peace of mind, hoping to make further progress in the short term.
After three months, those outsiders gradually withdrew from the Nie family as they saw that they never had a chance to take action.
"I'm exhausted." Nie Qian walked into Nie Tian's room with a tired face and left a cloth bag on the table. After counting the Fire Cloud Stones, most of them were sent to Lingyun Sect as tribute. The remaining Fire Cloud Stones went into the family's warehouse, and that's all I got."
In front of the door, the red light of sunset seeped in, and Nie Tian also woke up from his practice.
"Is that the Fire Cloud Stone?" Nie Tian looked curiously at the stones rolled out of the cloth bag on the table.
"Well, this is the fire cloud stone, a low-level fourth-grade spiritual material." Nie Qian picked up a fist-sized fire cloud stone and threw it towards Nie Tian, "Spiritual materials are special materials for refining spiritual weapons and constructing spiritual formations. , every Qi practitioner will start to come into contact with them when they reach the three-day realm, you should also take a look."
Nie Tian raised his hand, accurately grasped the fire cloud stone, and lowered his head to examine it carefully.
The fist-sized fire cloud stone showed a dark red color, and there seemed to be red clouds inside. Those red clouds seemed to contain the power of flames.
Nie Tian looked at it for a while, his mind moved slightly, and he took out the animal bone from his body.
In front of Nie Qian, he gently pressed the fire cloud stone against the animal bone, trying to guide the power of the flames in the fire cloud stone towards the animal bone.
The last time, due to the battle with Yun Song, the flames from Yun Song remained in the animal bones, causing changes in the animal bones, which made him pay attention.
He wanted to see if this beast bone could continue to absorb the power of fire like that time.
"Chichi!"
Dots of sparks suddenly shot out from the contact point between the animal bones and the fire cloud stone. The dark brown animal bones suddenly turned into the same color as the fire cloud stone.
Nie Tian opened his eyes wide. He pressed his fingers on the animal bones and fire cloud stone, and clearly felt the power of flames flowing rapidly from the fire cloud stone to the animal bones.
Within the fire cloud stone, small clusters of red clouds are disappearing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Huh!"
Nie Qian also noticed something unusual and hurriedly came to Nie Tian's side, looking at the animal bones as curiously as Nie Tian.
She saw that in a short period of time, all the red clouds in the fire cloud stone disappeared.
She knew very well that those small, cloud-like red masses were the power of fire contained in the Fire Cloud Stone.
"Crack!"
The fist-sized fire cloud stone suddenly shattered after all the red clouds inside disappeared.
The fire cloud stone that was broken into smaller pieces was no longer dark red, but became the most ordinary stone that was gray and dull.
On the contrary, the dark brown animal bone gradually turned red and translucent, like a red-hot iron. Nie Tian quickly let go of it when it was so hot.
"Xiaotian, you..." Nie Qian was overjoyed, her bright eyes shining with excitement, "Is it possible that you have begun to have a spiritual connection with this animal bone? Your cultivation attribute is flame?"
What always bothered her was that Nie Tian never showed his unique cultivation attributes and did not respond to the animal bones.
Now, seeing the animal bone turning red, she mistakenly thought it was Nie Tian who caused it, and immediately became overjoyed.
"It has nothing to do with me." Nie Tian smiled bitterly and shook his head. "If it was me who caused the change in the animal bone, and the attribute in the body is the power of fire, I can hold it and not let go."
"Then..." Nie Qian was disappointed and couldn't help but ask, "What's going on?"
"It was the fire cloud stone that caused the changes in this beast bone." Nie Tian explained in detail the abnormal changes in the beast bone that night after he and Yun Song fought, and then said: "This beast bone, it seems It can absorb the power of fire. I was not sure before, but this time the power of fire in the fire cloud stone has also been absorbed by the animal bones, so I am sure."
While the two were talking, the flaming animal bones gradually turned dark brown again, no longer mysterious.
"Why did it change back again?" Nie Qianqi asked.
"Breathe the power of fire into it, and it will return to its original state. If you want to change again, you can only continue to absorb the power of fire." Nie Tiandao.
"I'll take another look." Nie Qian became interested.
She took the cloth bag containing the Fire Cloud Stone on the table and took out a larger Fire Cloud Stone from it. She handed it to Nie Tian and said, "Try again."
"Okay." Nie Tian followed his words and tried again.
"Chichi!"
The contact point between the animal bones and the fire cloud stone emitted fire again, and the animal bones became red and translucent again.
The larger fire cloud stone, under the gaze of Nie Tian and Nie Qian, was quickly pulled away from the power of the flame by the animal bones, and soon shattered.
As for the animal bones, there were dots of fire inside, like broken red stars, shining out one by one from the animal bones.
Nie Qian, who was well prepared, slowly stretched out her hand and gently touched the animal bones with her crystal fingers, hoping to explore the mystery within.
"ah!"
As soon as she touched the animal bone, Nie Qian screamed and stopped her hand as fast as lightning.
Her fingertips were burned instantly.
When she gathered the spiritual power containing the attribute of water and wanted to continue trying, the animal bones returned to normal and became sparse and ordinary.
"Come again!"
Her fighting spirit was aroused, and she took out another fire cloud stone and placed it on the animal bone. The animal bone became as red as fire again.
This time, she gathered the spiritual power of water on her fingers and reached out again.
"Chichi!"
Silks of water mist suddenly evaporated from the point of contact between her fingers and the animal bones, but she only lasted three seconds before she couldn't bear the scorching heat on the animal bones and had to stop.
"Come again!"
Nie Qian tried again and again, and pieces of fire cloud stone shattered after the animal bones absorbed all the power of the flames.
Every time she clicked on the animal bones, she couldn't hold on for a long time. Often, as soon as her spiritual consciousness penetrated into the animal bones, she couldn't bear it and pulled away.
After a while, all the remaining fire cloud stones she had were turned into gray-white gravel.
Nie Qian had sweat stains on her forehead. She looked at the animal bone dejectedly, shook her head and sighed, "This thing is a bit weird."
Perhaps because it absorbed a lot of fire power in a short period of time, the beast bone did not immediately return to normal after the last fire cloud stone was shattered. It was still as red as a piece of iron being forged.
"I'll give it a try too." Nie Tian pointed at the animal bone.
"Don't! It's too hot, you will get hurt!" Nie Qian shouted to stop her.
She tried many times and was convinced that the more fire power the animal bone absorbed, the hotter it would become. Therefore, even though a large amount of water spiritual power gathered on her fingertips, she still couldn't bear it.
Now, after that beast bone has absorbed all the flame power of the fire cloud stone, it is the hottest time. Nie Tian is simply asking for trouble if he starts now.
However, her stopping voice could not match Nie Tian's hand speed.
As soon as her voice came out, Nie Tian's fingers were already pressing on the animal bones.
"Let go!" she shouted anxiously.
But Nie Tian didn't scream and let go immediately as she thought.
Surprisingly, when Nie Tian pressed his fingers against the animal bones, not only did he not seem to feel any pain, his eyes were filled with excitement, as if he had made an astonishing discovery.
