Kong Ming stood at the crater of the volcano, jumped down, landed on a cliff, and then ducked into a dark cave.
The four walls of the cave showed a kind of burnt black color. Except for a faint trace of firelight coming from outside the cave, the inside of the cave seemed very dark.
Fire crystal itself can emit red light. If it is a bare ore exposed on a rock wall, it can be easily discovered. But over the years, I don’t know how many people have come to this crater to take risks, especially the people of the Qifeng tribe. Just like the Qingyu tribe is determined to get the Cloud Mist Grass, their demand for fire crystals is also very huge. Therefore, it is not very likely that bare ore can be found now. Most of the undiscovered fire crystals are buried in rock walls.
It is more troublesome to discover or excavate buried fire crystals like this. The most commonly used method is to diffuse one's own Yuan Power out of the body and probe into the rock wall to see if one can sense the fluctuations of the Fire Crystal Stone's Yuan Power. As long as you feel something, you can naturally find the fire crystal stone.
This method of searching requires very high skills for cultivators to control Yuan Power. After all, those who enter Luofeng Gorge stay in the Yuan Master realm. Although they can release their Yuan Power, they cannot control the release of their Yuan Power. Maybe everyone is so handy. Moreover, the Yuan Power in a person's body is limited. If the Yuan Power is always released, even a high-level Yuan Master cannot persist for too long. He can only search for a while and rest for a while. Or several people can cooperate and take turns releasing their energy to search.
During the search process, the easiest thing to react to the fire crystal stone is the fire elemental power. Therefore, people from the Qifeng tribe have performed well in the crater over the years and have been able to dig out a large amount of fire crystals.
Although Kong Ming is alone, he has practiced the "Fire Phoenix Sets the Prairie Fire" set of handsome skills. Not to mention releasing the energy in his body, he can even directly condense the energy outside his body and materialize it! This kind of method is definitely not comparable to that of ordinary Yuanshi practitioners. As long as Kong Ming mobilizes his external energy to search, the search range can even reach several times that of ordinary high-level Yuan masters!
Therefore, Kong Ming is not worried about whether he can find fire crystals. At most, it is just a matter of quantity.
When he first entered the cave, the possibility of finding fire crystals was not high, but Kong Ming directly used the "Fire Phoenix to Start a Prairie Fire" technique, driving the external energy to penetrate into the rock wall like an arm and fingers, and began to search for fire crystals. stone.
Mobilizing the Yuan Power outside the body consumes much less Yuan Power than releasing the Yuan Power inside the body. With Kong Ming's current cultivation level, it is enough to ensure that he can last for at least half a day, and the efficiency is several times better than that of ordinary people. many. Besides, this search process is also a kind of exercise for Kong Ming, which can definitely improve his control skills of the "Fire Phoenix Starts a Prairie Fire" set of skills!
The purpose of the trial journey is not all about treasure hunting. It is also very important to cherish every opportunity to improve one's strength. While the young people of the Qifeng tribe are looking for fire crystals, aren't they also practicing their skills in controlling Yuanli
Only a few hundred meters after Kong Ming entered the cave, he felt a very restrained fluctuation of fire element energy in a rock wall at a depth of more than ten meters! If nothing unexpected happens, this should be a fire crystal. So, Kong Ming stretched out his palm and put it against the rock wall. As the "Stone Controlling Technique" started to operate, a hole was opened in the rock wall and sunk to a depth of more than ten meters. Then, he suddenly He sucked out the fire crystal stone in one go!
This fire crystal is about the size of a fist, exudes a very dazzling fiery red light, and looks quite good in appearance. Because it is buried deep in the rock wall, it is difficult for ordinary people to find it. Therefore, it takes a long time to form, and it is normal for the quality to be better.
However, after Kong Ming's search, it is estimated that the fire crystals in the places he passed must have left "no grass", and it would be almost impossible for latecomers to gain anything.
Next, Kong Ming naturally searched for fire crystal stones while walking deeper into the cave. Since the cave extends in all directions, after almost half a day, Kong Ming had reached the very depths of the cave through twists and turns. Along the way, Kong Ming has collected more than forty fire crystals. If outsiders knew about such a high efficiency, they would definitely shout that it is impossible!
At this time, Kong Ming felt that the energy in his body was a little weak, so he turned to a small pothole and prepared to meditate and adjust his breathing to restore the lost energy in his body. However, before Kong Ming could put away the "Fire Phoenix Starts a Prairie Fire" technique, he felt that the extracorporeal energy scattered around was suddenly touched by a very strong wave of fire elemental energy!
Fire elemental power that fluctuates so strongly would never be emitted by the relatively restrained fire crystal stone. The most likely possibility is that someone is releasing the energy in their body and searching for fire crystals like Kong Ming.
Kong Ming didn't want to expose himself, so he immediately put away the "Fire Phoenix Starts a Prairie Fire" technique, and then used the "Breathing Concentration Technique" to hide quietly in the dark.
Kong Ming controls the external elemental force. Its nature is no different from the natural elemental force of heaven and earth. It has not been refined by Kongming's own skills. Therefore, when this external elemental force comes into contact with the elemental force released by others, Kong Ming can He is aware of the other party's existence, but the other party will not feel anything unusual about this force of heaven and earth. Only a person whose cultivation level is far better than Kong Ming's can capture the nuances of the external force being manipulated by others. However, such a strong man obviously does not exist in Luofeng Gorge!
After Kong Ming completely restrained his breath, he just waited quietly for a moment, and then a total of three people, a man and two women, passed by the small hole where he was hiding and walked towards the deeper cave.
What surprised Kong Ming was that he knew all three of them, and their origins were not simple.
The man leading the way, releasing the fire energy in his body and searching for fire crystals as he walked, was the very confident young man who was the leader of the "Three Heroes of Qi Feng". After Kong Ming got acquainted with Tuya, he learned that this person's name was Gaide. He had always been known as the number one master among the younger generation of the Qifeng tribe. He was extremely pure in the practice of fire element power, and he had some faint traces of the peak cultivation of high-level elemental masters. For the sake of posture. If he can successfully complete the trial trip to Luofeng Gorge this time, he will definitely be one of the young talents of the barbarian tribe who are most likely to reach the realm of Yuan Jiang in the short term. Even the senior officials of the Qifeng tribe have placed their trust in Gaide. Great expectations.
As for the two women following Gade, they are full of youthful and charming aura, but they are two of the seven young women from the Qingyu tribe!
