Volume 1 If Life is Like the First Time Chapter 9
This small hole is very strange, the size of its inside are the same, climbed out about more than ten feet away, Su Ming saw the end of the front, action slowed down.
Cautiously, he gradually approached the exit, and after a glance, he was stunned for a moment before taking a deep breath.
Here is a fire cave, countless conical stone hanging upside down on it, skin cracked, like at any time can be detached from the broken look, the ground is dark, but there is a strip of red rock staggered, will be reflected here in that brown, the heat is more than outside, to be several times more intense.
Not far away, there was a pitch-black skeleton that was about eight or nine feet long, causing Su Ming to recognize at a glance that it should be the bones of a python.
On that python's skull, there was also a bone horn as thick as an arm, and the color of that horn was equally pitch-black.
Such a long python was something that Su Ming had never seen before, but he had vaguely heard Gong say that there was a kind of python beast on this Wulong Mountain in the early days that was extremely ferocious, and this kind of python had a horn on its head, and it was called the Horned Python, and the sharpness of the horn could often become a treasure that would be offered to the tribes.
In their Wushan tribe, there was a horn python's bone horn in existence, which was something passed down by successive generations of patriarchs.
"Could it be a horn python?" He eyeballed the python's skeleton and looked at the small hole he was in, vaguely having an answer.
In deep thought, Su Ming took out a leaf of herb from the woven basket behind him and threw it downwards.
The herb fluttered and fell, and when it touched the ground, it let out a nuisance sound, and after about a quarter of an hour, it slowly dried up. He then tried a few more times, and finally determined that the heat of the ground here, although not weak, he could withstand some time, provided that he did not touch those red rocks.
At this moment, Little Red had long been impatient, if he didn't know that this place was dangerous, he was afraid that he would have drilled out and jumped down.
Su Ming cautiously climbed out and leapt downwards, stepping on the ground, immediately the sound of nuisance came from his feet, a hot air spread along the heart of his feet, but for a short period of time it would not burn the soles of his feet.
Little red into this fire cave, immediately hot sweating, thought for half a day, then back to the small hole, said nothing to come in, but a flash to leave, not only run to where to play.
Su Ming also did not persuade, but carrying a woven basket fast forward, he could guess that this place should be connected to the interior of this Black Flame Peak, perhaps there can be a place suitable for quenching dispersion.
After walking a short distance, an open space ahead, I do not know where it leads to, the ground has some potholes, the heat is much thicker here, and even Su Ming has already felt the searing heat under his feet.
He hesitated a little, his footsteps raised just to fall in an instant, suddenly a heat wave suddenly erupted, making Su Ming exclaimed backward, his pupils contracted, he saw an arm-thick flame from the ground in front of a puddle of land boomed out, will be instantly reflected in the cave within the firelight.
Su Ming took a deep breath, once again back, until pushed to the cave entrance, which only gazed at, this look is half an hour, the flame only gradually dissipated, but not long, another pothole place, once again erupted in flames.
Week after week, mutual continuity.
"Fire ......" Su Ming stared at those potholes, his eyes slowly revealed a bright aura, and there was even more surprise.
"There really is fire here! However, it is an intermittent appearance, not the kind of stable eruption ...... "After Su Ming's surprise, he pondered for a moment, vaguely feeling pity.
"That's just it, although from the top of the mountain directly into the interior of this mountain, perhaps you can find a better place, but this place is better in seclusion, and if there is danger, I can also quickly leave.
Then for the time being, let's use this place as the first Cave of Hardened Dispersion in my life!" Su Ming's expression was tinged with excitement as he muttered and looked around again.
"The fire is there, right now there is still a Desolate Cauldron missing ...... Desolate Cauldron I can make one myself!" Su Ming's gaze fell on the scattered rocks on the ground.
"These rocks have been here for so many years, they have not been incinerated into ash, they are obviously extremely heat resistant, they should be able to be quenched and dispersed right ......" Su Ming scratched his head, changed the herbs under his feet, and once again jumped down, choosing a large stone that looked more suitable, and hesitantly After touching it for a moment, it didn't feel too hot, just lukewarm.
After determining that he wanted to use this boulder as a material, Su Ming took out his own medicinal knife, which was very sharp and had been polished by him from time to time. Holding this knife, Su Ming used all of his strength and chopped at the stone.
This is a boring process, but Su Ming has long been accustomed to, without the slightest impatience, just in the chopping, he suddenly had a flash of light in his head, looked at the python's bones not far away, especially the black horn on its skull.
Slightly pondering, Su Ming walked quickly, in that skull near the look for a long time, in that python bones on a knock, this knock, only to hear the sound of clatter back, this is the vice bone immediately became a crumble spilled on the ground.
In that debris, there is only a piece of black bone horn, not crushed.
"This horn is truly extraordinary, I was just now wondering how that python drilled its way in." Su Ming picked up the bone horn and scratched it on the wall to the side, immediately making a missing mark, this scene did not surprise Su Ming.
"Just don't know why this horn python back then had to drill in raw from the outside ......," Su Ming couldn't figure it out, took that bone horn and walked over to the boulder, mo chopping it up.
With the help of this horn, a few hours later, a quenching and dispersing stone furnace that was five or six points similar to the Desolate Cauldron in Su Ming's memories, was molded, and even Su Ming made an extra lid, so that he could keep the heat inside this Desolate Cauldron from spreading out.
"Try it first." Su Ming looked excited and pushed the made Desolate Cauldron to those potholes, pressed his mind and slowly waited.
Several more hours passed, and under the eruption of flames over and over again, flames finally erupted from a pothole near Su Ming's front.
Almost the instant the flames erupted, Su Ming violently pushed the Quenching Stone Furnace, causing the Desolate Cauldron to cover the pothole where the flames erupted.
Su Ming's expression was tense. Whether he could quench the flames or not depended on whether this Desolate Cauldron could withstand the high temperature.
Soon, the stone furnace red, heat waves scattered, more click sound echo, but see its surface appeared a large number of cracks, Su Ming inner thumped, but waited for a long time also did not see this stone collapse, which slowly put down his heart.
"One hour ...... each time to quench the dispersion is only one hour, it should not be quite enough ......" Su Ming eyes pondered, he in order to quench the dispersion, it can be said that he has gone through a lot of trouble.
"It can be done this way!" Su Ming retreated a few steps back, although he had an idea in his head, he did not act rashly, but stood in a place where the ground was not too acidic and too hot, and looked at the potholes without turning his eyes, and this look was a whole day.
During the period that little monkey came, feel too hot after leaving some wild fruits will run out again to play.
As for that stone desert tripod, but also withstood the test, several times in the flame impact, never shattered.
"These small holes in the ground outbreak of flames, some rules, but there are no rules ......" A day later, Su Ming took the bone horn, body swayed out, came to those pits, quickly on the ground to open a gully, one of the pits of the small holes with that desert tripod. The bottom of it was connected.
He did not pause in his movements, and after making six strokes in a row, he quickly retreated, and within a short time, when the flame erupted from one of the potholes, it was obviously shunted by a lot of flames pouring into the bottom of the stone furnace along the gully on the ground.
"It's done!" Su Ming watched for another half a day, looking for gaps to once again cut out five gullies, and continued to observe for a whole day, determining that his method was considered to be a large-scale extension of the furnace fire, before letting go of his heart.
In fact, he also had some hesitation, the lines and connections of these gullies are not drawn on randomly, it is necessary to keep the place where the Desolate Cauldron is located its flame can not be too big, nor too little, otherwise it is easy to appear abnormal.
After all, in his observation, there were so many times when several pits erupted with flames at the same time, once the connection was wrong, he was afraid that it would be dangerous.
After solving these two most basic problems, Su Ming quieted his mind and followed the scene from his memory, and within this Black Flame Peak, he began his first quenching and dispersing in this life.
For food, there were little monkeys to solve the problem, or Su Ming went out to fight some small beasts, dragged them here to directly have a fire, and roasted them to eat. There is also the matter about the Black Mountain Department Gong, Su Ming also during this period when he went out hunting, met the hunting team from his own tribe, will inform this matter.
Time passed day by day, this belongs to his quenching and dispersing place, from time to time, there will be chagrined voices coming out, half a month's time, Su Ming has already reddened his eyes, this half a month, he refined countless times, but there was not even a single success!
He was already at the first level of the Blood Condensation Realm in terms of cultivation now, and with four blood lines, as long as he could get two more, he would be able to step into the second level of the Blood Condensation Realm.
Once he reached the second layer, he would be able to perform his first Barbarian Art in the Barbarian Image Inheritance that Su Ming had obtained!
This was a dream come true for Su Ming, and it was also the source of motivation that made him keep refining medicinal stones.
But right now, the failure of this month's Quenching Scattering was what made Su Ming almost disheartened, but the stubbornness in his bones made him unwilling to give up just like that.
"I just don't believe it! Little Red, help me to collect medicine again!" Su Ming muttered as he threw the braided basket towards the little monkey that was baring its teeth at the entrance of the cave and continued to refine.
The little monkey caught the braided basket, grinned, turned around and ran out.
One day, one day, one day ......
Fail, fail, fail ......
Until another half a month has passed, this day in the afternoon, Su Ming cloaked, standing in front of that deserted tripod, his hands holding two kinds of herbs, both are red, one for six petals, one for five petals.
"Which one should I use ......" Su Ming knew that there wasn't too much time to ponder, and fiercely clenched his teeth.
