Chapter 357: Cold Fire of the Netherworld

Song Wen was preparing to refine the corpse of a human snake when Zhou Siyi's voice sounded outside the cave.

"Junior Brother Wu, I heard from Elder Rong that you have returned from the secret realm, and I came here to see you."

After Song Wen heard this, he locked the human snake back into the snake pit and opened the cave's restrictions.

"Junior Brother Wu, were you not injured in Canglan Secret Realm?"

Zhou Siyi asked eagerly as soon as he entered the cave, his eyes still looking back and forth at Song Wen.

"Thank you, Senior Sister Zhou, for your concern. I was not injured."

Zhou Siyi said, "Junior Brother Wu, you have always acted cautiously. You must have your own reasons for entering the Canglan Secret Realm. But this time you entered the secret realm, it is really a bit rough. You are only in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment. Compared with those at the Peak Foundation Establishment Monk, there is a big difference. Please think twice before doing anything."

Song Wendao said, "Thank you, senior sister, for your concern. I saved it."

Zhou Siyi's expression suddenly became very solemn and serious.

"Junior Brother Wu, most of our cultivators are wary of others, which is a good thing. But your kindness to me is more than just saving my life. I have no intention of harming you, and I never will. , is someone you can trust. If you make any important decisions in the future, I hope Junior Brother Wu can inform me."

Song Wen nodded and said, "Okay!"

"really?"

"Absolutely true."

Zhou Siyi smiled happily.

"Have you encountered anything interesting in the secret realm? Tell me about it."

Song Wen was silent for a long time.

"There is nothing interesting. My cultivation level is low and I don't dare to fight for the treasure. I wandered in a non-dangerous area for more than 20 days and then came out."

Zhou Siyi's smile faded, and she looked a little resentful.

"You said just now that you would trust me. Elder Rong told me that when you came out of the secret realm, you met the white tiger."

...

Five days later.

Song Wen came to Xuanzi Danfang.

As soon as they entered the alchemy room, they saw Zuo Shuiyun and Wei Ding walking towards them.

At that time, Wei Ding was demoted from a deacon elder to an honorary elder, and was demoted to the 'Spirit Flame Forbidden Land' to guard the refining rock fire in the center of the earth.

Wei Ding has no use value anymore, Zuo Shuiyun turns her back and refuses to recognize him, and the two break up.

But recently, Zuo Shuiyun was on duty and was also sent to the 'Spiritual Flame Forbidden Land' to assist Wei Ding and stationed in the center of the earth to refine the rock fire, and the two got involved again.

The rock refining fire in the center of the earth is sealed deep underground in Danfeng, and there is only one passage to enter the sealed place.

There are several prohibitions on this passage. Without a pass token, even monks at the peak of the Golden Core stage would have difficulty breaking in.

Therefore, guarding the refining rock fire in the center of the earth is an extremely leisurely job.

Just check once every few hours to see if the seal of the Earth's Core Refining Rock Fire is loose.

Correspondingly, this is also a clean job, and the pay is pitiful.

Song Wen's identity is no longer what it used to be.

Zuo Shuiyun's attitude toward Song Wen underwent a 180-degree change.

She originally looked down on Song Wen.

When Song Wen first entered the sect, he was bossy and sarcastic towards Song Wen.

When the two of them were performing the Cheng family's blood demon mission together, only Song Wen knew about Zuo Shuiyun's secret subjugation of the blood demon.

Others knew about the despised secret, which made Zuo Shuiyun very uncomfortable.

Therefore, she once designed to frame Song Wen and reported Song Wen for smuggling pills, but she did not cause any trouble to Song Wen.

After Song Wen became the elder of the Zhenge, the identities of Song Wen and her were completely different, and she could no longer offend easily.

Therefore, she threw herself into Song Wen's arms and flattered him.

However, Song Wen treated her with no pretense.

Song Wen really had no intention of doing it, and he was on the same path as the beast.

"Junior brother Wu, why are you free today? Do you have anything important to come to the alchemy room? Is there anything I can help you with, senior sister?"

Zuo Shuiyun walked in small steps all the way to Song Wen with a charming smile on her face.

Song Wendao said, "It's just a small matter, so I won't bother Senior Sister Zuo."

"Junior brother, please do your work first. If you need anything, you can use the jade slip to inform me. I will never refuse."

"Thank you, Senior Sister Zuo."

After saying that, Song Wen continued walking towards the inside of the alchemy room.

Song Wendao passed by Wei Ding.

"Elder Wei, I haven't seen you for many years. How are you doing?"

Wei Ding's behavior was far less worldly than Zuo Shuiyun's.

Song Wen took the initiative to greet him, and he just nodded calmly, which was regarded as a response to Song Wen.

He also heard that Song Wen was currently working for the First Supreme Prince.

In his eyes, Song Wen just happened to be lucky enough to climb the high tree of Yuanying Supreme Elder.

After Song Wen loses his use value in the first emperor's place, he will definitely fall into despair and never regain his former glory.

Song Wen didn't care about Wei Ding's slightly arrogant response. He walked inside and quickly disappeared into the alchemy room.

"Elder Wei, Wu Sheng is now a popular figure in front of the Peak Master and the Supreme Elder. You should be more polite to him." Zuo Shuiyun said.

Wei Ding said with disdain.

"It's just a temporary glory. Sooner or later, he will lose his use value. Knowing too many secrets is not a good thing. By then, we don't know what a miserable end he will have."

"People, you have to rely on yourself. Alchemists like us rely on alchemy to establish ourselves. Only by being proficient in alchemy can we gain a foothold in the sect and in the world of immortality."

"Elder Wei, what you said makes sense."

Zuo Shuiyun agreed, but no one knew what she really thought.

...

Song Wen found Huo Ding and asked him about the method of refining a herb called ‘Huang Yingcao’.

Huang Yingcao is an auxiliary herb for forming golden elixir, which Song Wen had never used before.

Huo Ding had an excellent talent for alchemy and devoted himself to research. His alchemy skills made great progress. If he had not been limited by his cultivation, he would have been able to refine all the second-level elixirs.

Before Song Wen came to the alchemy room, he had used the communication jade slip to communicate with Huo Ding in advance.

Huo Ding was quite enthusiastic about Song Wen’s arrival and demonstrated the refining process of Huang Yingcao to Song Wen in person.

"Thank you, Elder Huo, for clearing up my doubts."

"Elder Wu, don’t thank me. It was my master’s order."

"I will remember the kindness of Master Fangfeng."

After bidding farewell to Huo Ding, Song Wen came to the Sutra Library.

He wanted to find the classics about green flames.

Song Wen spent half an hour and finally found the record about green flames in the vast classics.

This fire is called 'Nether Corpse Cold Fire', a kind of evil and cold spiritual flame.

For the demon cultivators such as the corpse and ghost, this fire has immeasurable value.

Not only can it be used to fight against enemies, but it can also help them refine corpse puppets and evil ghosts.

Together with the Yuhuang Flame obtained from Feng Qi, Song Wen now has two spiritual flames, one good and one evil.

However, refining the spiritual flame requires the cultivation of the Golden Core Stage, which Song Wen cannot refine for the time being.

After leaving the Sutra Library, Song Wen returned to his cave.

For the next period of time, Song Wen spent his hard training, refining corpses, and practicing alchemy.
