Chapter 374 Sky Fire Pond

In front of a green hill.

Hao Ruoyan said politely, "Elder Liu, I need to rent the Heavenly Fire Pool for a few days, is there any free pool now?"

That Elder Liu looked to be in his sixties or seventies, and he took a look at Hao Ruoyan, with a flattering smile on his face, "Since Elder Hao wants to use it, of course he is free, even if he is not free, he will have it, I will wait for the old man to see, Right away."

"Thank you, Elder Liu."

Hao Ruoyan smiled lightly, stepped back a few steps, and stood beside Zhou Shu.

Zhou Shu looked at Elder Liu shaking his head, a little speechless. He also came to rent Tianhuo Pond before, but Elder Liu didn't pay attention to him at all. , and finally left a sentence, "All Tianhuo pools are used by people", and left directly.

As soon as Hao Ruoyan came over, Elder Liu immediately changed his face. Elder Ke Qing was not as easy to use as Elder Huzong.

Even now, Elder Liu doesn't seem to have him in his eyes, completely ignoring him.

"Yes, both No. 3 and No. 7 are empty. Elder Hao, it is better to choose No. 7. The fire there has already reached the third level."

Elder Liu took out a red formation talisman and handed it to Hao Ruoyan, "Here is the formation talisman, you can open it with this, and no one else can get in, so I don't need to say more about the extra ones, Elder Hao can use it for as long as he wants."

Hao Ruoyan reached out to take it, and bowed slightly, "Thank you, Elder Liu, and I will take my leave first."

"Hey, wait a minute."

Elder Liu's face showed a bit of impatience, and he quickly stood in front of Hao Ruoyan, "I have something I want to ask Elder Hao, but I haven't had time to go to Yanyun Valley, but now is just the right time."

Hao Ruoyan sighed inwardly, he knew what was going on without saying anything, "Elder Liu, please tell me."

"I heard that Elder Hao and Haizhonglou are on good terms. The ultimate magic weapon is in Haizhonglou now, right?" Elder Liu took a few steps closer, his eyes flashed, he stared at Hao Ruoyan closely, his hands trembling slightly, almost He wanted to reach out to Hao Ruoyan.

Hao Ruoyan took two steps back, slightly annoyed in her heart, but still had a lot of kindness on her face, "I don't know much about this, but Haizhonglou will explain the matter of the ultimate magic weapon in two months. Elder Liu will know."

"Oh, really?"

Elder Liu was stunned, thinking, all the wrinkles on his face were crowded together, except his mouth was still open, like a cracked walnut.

"Elder Liu will know when the time comes, I have to leave beforehand."

Hao Ruoyan nodded, and hurriedly backed away, not seeing anyone in a while.

Zhou Shu chased after him for a while, then shook his head and smiled wryly, "You run really fast."

"You can't hurry up, there will be more questions after a while, and Ruoyan will be bored to death." Hao Ruoyan stopped, with a bitter face, "You don't know how many questions they can ask... Sigh."

Zhou Shu nodded, "Ruoyan, it will be fine in a few days, and I will wrong you for a while."

"There's nothing wrong with it," Hao Ruoyan smiled, and handed the talisman to Zhou Shu, "By the way, the No. 7 Tianhuo Pond is in front of you. Master Shu, go up and do your work. Ruoyan won't bother you."

"um. Thank you."

Zhou Shu went up alone.

It was a small mountain with a radius of about ten miles, surrounded by a thick layer of red clouds.

After opening the array, we reached the top of the mountain in a short while. The scene here is completely different from the outside.

The top of the mountain below was covered with crimson rocks, and in the middle was a large depression of dark red magma, which kept boiling and bursting into pieces of raging flames from time to time.

And the sky in the formation is also full of flames. The scorching sun seems to project all the energy here, forming a waterfall of heat waves that looks like real water, pouring down into the magma, and the momentum is terrifying.

This is the Heavenly Fire Pond of the Liuxia Sect, and it is indeed extraordinary.

In fact, arranging such a grand formation is not a big deal. What is even more difficult is that the formation must be running all the time for hundreds of years, and there must be no pause for a moment, because once it stops, the quality of the flames attracted by the sky fire pool will decline. . Only by igniting the fire day and night can the quality of the fire not decrease and increase slowly. However, it will take hundreds of years to reach the third level alone. If it is the fourth level, it may take more than a thousand years for the formation to achieve it.

The consumption of such resources and energy is absolutely unbearable for the small sect.

Zhou Shu walked to a corner of the Tianhuo Pool and opened another layer of formation inside. Suddenly, a cool air came over him, and he could no longer feel the heat. This formation is prepared for cultivators to refine weapons, and the Tianhuo Furnace is also inside. The magma in the center is led into the Tianhuo Furnace through the underground passage, forming small fire pools for cultivators to use for refining weapons.

Of course, it is impossible for cultivators to go directly to the Tianhuo Pond to refine weapons. Like ordinary pulse condensing realm cultivators, if they go to the center, they will be roasted into charcoal.

Zhou Shuan sat in front of the stove with a focused expression.

He stretched out his hand, and a ray of flame suddenly jumped out of the fire pool, suspended in the furnace, and kept dancing.

For refining equipment, fire control is the most basic, and it is also the first thing Zhou Shu needs to master.

Most materials need to be changed by flames before they can be formed, but it is not simply throwing materials into the fire. The process is quite delicate, especially for higher-order materials. A slight error in fire control will destroy the structure of the material , the spiritual energy is lost, and it is directly scrapped.

Zhou Shu has learned a lot about fire control, but it is the first time to actually get started, but he doesn't find it too difficult, because he has already deduced and calculated such a process many times, all he needs is practice.

He has practiced it many times in the sea of ​​consciousness, and now he just moves it out.

The flame was only an inch long, and under the guidance of spiritual power, it constantly changed its shape, sometimes stretched, sometimes shortened, and sometimes scattered into pieces... and finally turned into a small ring of fire. Upon closer inspection, the flame seems to be imprisoned in an invisible transparent ring, flowing back and forth, the flames inside are exactly the same in color and luster, there is no distinction between the inner flame and the outer flame, which is quite strange.

"Using the fire ring to practice fire control skills is a good way. It can condense the flame into a consistent fire ring inside and outside. Fire control is considered an introduction."

This is what Old Xin said, and Zhou Shu always remembers it.

Zhou Shu nodded slightly, and fished out another flame from the fire pool.

Soon this time, the flame obediently circled around, forming a new fire ring on the edge of the previous fire ring. The two rings of fire are almost identical in size, and they are very close together, but they are not stuck together, which is quite strange.

Zhou Shu didn't stop, and his speed became faster and faster. With a lift of his right hand, flames flew up one after another.

Not long after, nine rings of fire were hung in the stove. They turned back and forth and danced lightly, like butterflies, which was quite beautiful.

It seems very simple, but the painstaking efforts involved are far beyond what people can imagine. You must know that in order to form the nine rings of fire, Zhou Shu separated nearly a thousand streams of spiritual power, each of which is thinner than the thinnest hair. To be careful, it is not possible for ordinary cultivators to separate these spiritual forces outside the body and not confuse them, let alone perfectly control them to guide the flames.

hard to imagine.

But for Zhou Shu, achieving this is just the beginning of mastering fire control.
