Seeing the sky suddenly become overcast, Chu Tianxiao observed carefully for a long time and concluded that tonight would definitely be thundering and lightning, a rare opportunity! With the idea of achieving success in one battle, he finally decided to take action tonight and get the little spark of Minghuang Jiuyou Fire out!
Although he was a little puzzled by the sudden change in the weather, Chu Tianxiao also knew that the changeable weather was not abnormal in this season, so he did not take it seriously. After lighting a sound transmission note to report safety to Huo Bao Niang and asking her to prepare for his entry to Kyoto, Chu Tianxiao found a relatively secluded valley near Guyang Town and sat cross-legged there in meditation.
He sat there for several hours. After making sure that his condition had reached its peak, Chu Tianxiao slightly opened his eyes and saw thunder and lightning!
The roaring sound was endless, but for some reason, there was no rain...
"This kind of weather is really weird. It's true that thunder is loud but rain is light..." Chu Tianxiao muttered, "But it's better this way. I don't have to use the water-repellent charm to prevent the flames from going out..."
Thinking of this, Chu Tianxiao did not hesitate. He took a deep breath, and the true energy in the Snow Mountain Qi Sea began to circulate wildly!
Heavenly Thunder Sacrifice!
A thick purple arc of electricity shot up from Chu Tianxiao's palm into the air, and then greedily absorbed the thunder-type spiritual energy that filled the world at the moment, strengthening itself. After a while, it formed a purple dragon that was three times more majestic than before! However, it was still not satisfied, and opened its bloody mouth, still madly absorbing spiritual energy to strengthen itself!
"Sure enough... A night with thunder and lightning is when Lei Ling exerts his greatest power! In just a moment, this... Damn it!" Before Chu Tianxiao could finish his muttering, a bolt of lightning suddenly struck from the sky, and the purple dragon, like a newborn calf that is not afraid of a tiger, pounced directly on it!
"Damn it! As expected, the thunder spirit that I just tamed is so unruly... Or should I say, stupid? It even wants to absorb the lightning from the sky? Isn't it afraid of exploding and dying?" Chu Tianxiao's mind moved. He didn't dare to take the risk this time. He quickly controlled the Purple Dragon Blood Thunder to deviate a little. However, he never thought that when this creature saw the lightning from heaven and earth, it was as if it had fallen in love with a girl. It opened its bloody mouth again and actually absorbed a trace!
boom!
All that was heard was the thunder and lightning hitting the hill with a loud explosion. Although the Purple Dragon Blood Thunder only absorbed a trace of it, it lay down in the air in extreme comfort, like a big man who had a full meal for three days and three nights. It also made a very human movement - it stretched out its claws to cover its stomach!
Chu Tianxiao couldn't help laughing or crying at this scene. He had forgotten that these thunder spirits and the lightning in the sky came from the same source. As long as the dosage was controlled properly, that thing was indeed a tonic...
"Well, it seems that the Purple Dragon Blood Thunder has reached its peak state." Chu Tianxiao looked at the Purple Dragon Blood Thunder which had grown two circles larger, nodded with satisfaction, and then quickly took out the white jade box from the Sumeru Ring.
It felt extremely cold to the touch, and it was obvious that this box was no ordinary object.
Chu Tianxiao opened the lid of the box, revealing the nine-bend nanmu wood inside.
Chu Tianxiao was slightly surprised at the first glance. The treasure in front of him was more like a ginseng than a piece of wood. There were many things like "roots" on it, winding and twisting like a dragon. Many of them were even entangled together, forming an embrace...
Looking at it, it is just like a work of art, and it no longer deserves the name “Nine Bends”.
Chu Tianxiao has done some special research and found that the quality of the Nine-bend Nanmu depends on how many "roots" it has, how thick they are, what their structure is, and how twisted they are... No matter how you look at it, this Nine-bend Nanmu is of the best quality!
"Hmm... Not bad! No wonder Mr. Yi treasures this thing and puts it in such an extraordinary white jade box. It is said that the best Nine-bend Nanmu has a special fragrance, and it has extremely rare and miraculous effects whether it is for making musical instruments or boiling medicine. It's a pity... If I want to complete my mission, I can only sacrifice this thing tonight."
"If you give up something, you must gain something. We need to distinguish the important from the unimportant. Besides, if it weren't for this good thing, how could it have produced the sparks of the Heavenly Grade Flame? Well... In order to avoid damaging the wood and causing unnecessary trouble, let's just chop the box together!"
A feeling of regret flashed across Chu Tianxiao's heart, and with a thought, he threw the object and the white jade box into the air. Then, he activated the Heavenly Thunder Art and controlled the extremely powerful purple dragon blood thunder to rush down angrily!
There was a sound of a dragon roaring, and the purple dragon blood thunder was about to break into pieces, splitting into countless lightning bolts that intertwined together and bombarded the nine-bend nanmu frantically!
Boom! Boom!
There were noises one after another, and lightning flashed across the surface of the Nine-bend Nanmu again and again. Chu Tianxiao was frightened and kept shouting in his heart: Come out quickly! Little Spark, come out quickly!
However…
One swipe... No!
Two chops... No!
I chopped it down three times...still nothing!
Chu Tianxiao saw that the piece of fine nine-bend nanmu had been split into a charred state, and the white jade box was also mostly broken into pieces. But until this moment, no sparks were produced at all, which was simply against the common sense of the cultivation world!
Of course, this is only the Nine-bend Nanmu. If you change to another piece of wood, let alone produce any sparks, it would be good if it is not smashed to pieces by lightning!
Chu Tianxiao was extremely anxious, but he also knew that this kind of thing would probably depend on a bit of luck, so he could only grit his teeth and persevere, using all his strength to activate the Heavenly Thunder Art...
Keep chopping!
Even with all his strength, Chu Tianxiao could feel his true energy being consumed at a speed visible to the naked eye. However, he could not care less at this moment, because both the Purple Dragon Blood Thunder and the Nine-bend Nanmu were "much weaker than before". If he failed after trying one or two more times... he was afraid that he would never have another chance!
“No… We must not rely on luck or illusory luck in this matter! Next time, I will use all my strength to exhaust the power of the Thunder Spirit. If I fail, it’s over!”
With a thought in mind, Chu Tianxiao let out a low shout, and then, the purple lightning, whose brightness had been dimmed due to the continuous strikes, began to frantically absorb the surrounding lightning power again, and then, with a resolute momentum, it struck down angrily!
With a bang!
The white jade box containing the Nine-bend Nanmu finally couldn't bear it anymore and exploded. The Nine-bend Nanmu was completely charred, with only a few small pieces of wood left. The original "mighty" appearance of the "entangled roots" could not be seen at all...
"Failed?" Chu Tianxiao was about to feel a sense of loss, but suddenly his eyes focused and he saw a small spark faintly lit on the small wooden block...
When you look closely, you can see that the spark is very weak, as if it had become a frail old man as soon as it was born. However, even this thin "life force" reveals a strong sense of oppression and indomitable spirit, as if to announce to the world that even if it was only born for a very short time, it has been here!
Chu Tianxiao could even vaguely sense the terrifying power contained in it, which was definitely not something he could resist at the moment!
Without hesitation, he took out the red box that Ning Linyun had given him. It flashed with light and automatically separated from Chu Tianxiao's palm. The lid of the box separated, and a suction force immediately sucked the small spark in. Then, it closed automatically with a bang and fell back into Chu Tianxiao's hand!
Chu Tianxiao did not hesitate and immediately pasted the talisman given by Ning Linyun on it. However, at this moment, something strange happened!
Then I saw that little spark actually resisted unwillingly, and at the most critical moment, it showed a thousandth of a sign!
Chu Tianxiao stuck the talisman down with one hand, and just happened to touch the small spark among the small sparks!
hiss!-
In just a moment, Chu Tianxiao's palm turned black, and the small spark unexpectedly flowed into his body through Chu Tianxiao's palm by chance!
This scene made Chu Tianxiao dumbfounded. His first thought was not something like "I have subdued the Minghuang Nine Nether Fire and can slowly cultivate it", but...
"I'm going to die this time!" (To be continued.)8
