Chapter 22 Spirit Wood Space

At this time, no matter how stupid the Fire Armored Beast was, it knew that the human in front of it was the guy who attacked it.

Two cold rays shot out of his small eyes, his cheeks bulged a few times, and he opened his big mouth and sprayed out another fist-sized fireball, shooting towards Xiao Lin.

Xiao Lin ignored it, but continued to chant the spell of water arrow, and the water arrow soon condensed again.

"Boom" The fireball hit the ebony spirit shield, and sparks burst all over the sky. The force of the impact made Xiao Lin feel his body shaken. The light on the ebony spirit shield flashed a few times, but it still withstood this attack, but the green light on it dimmed a lot.

"Go." Xiao Lin's cold voice sounded, and the water arrow shot towards the Fire Armored Beast like an arrow from a string.

But a scene that surprised Xiao Lin appeared. The Fire Armored Beast, which was originally slow in movement, suddenly became much faster. In a flash, the water arrow actually brushed his scales and shot into the ground beside it.

"Chi" Although the water arrow did not hit the Fire Armor Beast, it suddenly exploded after hitting the ground. The force of the explosion flipped the Fire Armor Beast over and rolled a few times. When the Fire Armor Beast stabilized its body, it looked like it was shaking its head and was obviously still a little dizzy.

Xiao Lin was in no mood to appreciate the cute appearance of the Fire Armor Beast. He chanted a spell again. At this time, the Fire Armor Beast obviously woke up. Its small eyes were shining coldly, staring at Xiao Lin, and its cheeks were bulging wildly, looking angry. But then it opened its mouth and sprayed out another fireball. This fireball was actually a full circle larger than the previous two.

Xiao Lin's face was a little ugly, but the fireball was very fast, and it was definitely too late to dodge. He could only pour his magic power into the Ebony Spirit Shield frantically, hoping that the Ebony Spirit Shield could block this attack for him.

"Boom!" The fireball hit the ebony spirit shield again, and the flames flew everywhere. After flashing a few times, the emerald green spirit light on the ebony spirit shield became extremely dim. It was obvious that the spirit power had been exhausted and it looked like it would fall to the ground at any time.

But at this time, Xiao Lin's water arrow technique had also condensed. With a cold snort, his body suddenly shot out. In the surprised eyes of the fire armor beast, Xiao Lin actually came directly in front of the fire armor beast. This scared the fire armor beast. His cheeks were frantically bulging, and black smoke flew out of his big mouth. He was about to shoot a fireball again. At such a close distance, as long as his fireball was ejected, the human in front of him would definitely be burned to charcoal.

But as soon as he opened his mouth, he heard Xiao Lin's cold snort, and then he felt a cold shot into his mouth. The fireball and the water arrow that reached his throat collided with each other, and the water and fire collided and exploded instantly.

Xiao Lin, who shot the water arrow, also reacted very quickly. His body retreated several feet, and then a stream of alternating hot and cold air suddenly swept out. Xiao Lin, who was several feet away, changed his face. He couldn't help but stepped back several steps before he stabilized his body. His face turned pale.

He didn't hesitate and immediately came to the body of the fire armor beast. He dragged the body of the fire armor beast and rushed away. Although the fire armor beasts that came out to drink water and eat grass usually didn't come in groups, there was no guarantee that there wouldn't be a second nest of fire armor beasts that happened to come to drink water. If he encountered another fire armor beast at this time, Xiao Lin would choose to run away without hesitation, although he didn't think his speed was faster than the speed of the fireball.

After dragging the body of the fire armor beast back to the cave, Xiao Lin was completely exhausted and fell asleep directly on the haystack.

The next day, Xiao Lin woke up full of energy. He looked at the corpse of the Fire Armor Beast in front of him excitedly. This was his first time hunting a monster. He turned the Fire Armor Beast over and saw a palm-sized white scale on its abdomen. He took out a knife from his arms, carefully peeled off the white scale, and put it in a cloth bag beside him.

Then he sat cross-legged and adjusted his breathing. His mana only recovered a small part overnight. If he wanted to hunt the second Fire Armor Beast, he had to recover his mana as soon as possible. He planned to try his luck again tonight to see if he could encounter a lone Fire Armor Beast again.

Three months passed quickly. One day, Xiao Lin dragged two fire-armored beasts back to the cave. He entered the cave, took a look at his somewhat charred arms, and couldn't help showing a bitter smile on his face. Last night, when he was hunting a fire-armored beast, another one suddenly jumped out of the bushes. Facing two fire-armored beasts at once, even if Xiao Lin was calm, he was still in a panic. Although he relied on the mastery of water arrows during this period, he did not retreat, but chose to fight the two fire-armored beasts. But in the end, although he killed the two fire-armored beasts, he was also scratched on the arm by the fireball sprayed by one of them.

Fortunately, it was a scratch. If he had been hit by a fireball head-on, then this half of his body would definitely not exist.

What's more terrible is that his mana has been consumed a long time ago, and even his meridians feel a pain. He knows that this is due to excessive consumption of mana, which has led to the atrophy of the meridians. He smiled bitterly and took out a bag of powdered medicine from his arms, poured it into his mouth, and swallowed it.

This small packet of medicine was specially used to treat internal injuries, and Xiao Lin had spent a low-grade spirit stone to buy it. Most of his gains from the past three months were gone, which made Xiao Lin sigh. It seemed that in this world of cultivation, earning a few spirit stones was not an easy thing.

After swallowing the potion, Xiao Lin closed his eyes and began to look inward. Although he had seen the method of looking inward in the weapon refining formula, he had never used it. This time, he was injured internally, so he wanted to try it to see how serious his injury was. He didn't want to ruin the foundation of his cultivation because of it, which would be counterproductive.

According to the method of looking inward, he tried to concentrate his mind and sense the little spiritual light in the dark. He didn't know how long it had been. He only felt a "boom" in his mind, and then he was surprised to find that he could see his internal organs. Then he moved his "eyes" and saw that there was a cyclone flashing with a faint green light at the position of his dantian. Three air currents stretched out from the cyclone and flowed towards the three meridians above. On the other side, there were also three cyclones, which flowed from the meridians into the cyclone. Following the meridians, Xiao Lin saw that his meridians were flashing with a faint green light, which looked like a series of light paths, which surprised Xiao Lin.

He saw that several places in his meridians had indeed shrunk, but as a little bit of spiritual light overflowed from his internal organs and slowly merged into the meridians, the places that had shrunk actually began to swell up slowly.

This surprised Xiao Lin very much. It seemed that the medicine for treating internal injuries that he had bought with a low-grade spiritual stone was indeed effective. Immediately afterwards, Xiao Lin curiously shifted his "gaze" to other parts of his body, and even the bones and blood vessels could be "clearly seen", but some tiny blood vessels and bones were still very blurry and could not be "clearly seen".

Then Xiao Lin directed his "gaze" to his mind.

"Huh?" When he saw the position of his eyebrows, he couldn't help but exclaimed. It turned out that there was a gray cloud the size of a little fingernail in his eyebrows.

"What is this?" Xiao Lin was very sure that this gray cloud was definitely not his spiritual consciousness. According to the description of the weapon refining technique, the spiritual consciousness should be a little above the eyebrows. Sure enough, there Xiao Lin saw a light ball flashing with a faint green light, only the size of a thumb, and very dim.

Xiao Lin once again turned his "gaze" towards the gray cloud.

"What on earth is this?" Xiao Lin couldn't help but move closer, wanting to see it more clearly, but suddenly felt a huge suction pulling him into the gray light.

A dizzy feeling came over him, and the next moment, he was surprised to find that he was in the strange space he had entered in Shuiyun Valley.

It was still gray, and the area was still about ten square meters, and the emerald green sapling in the middle was still growing very strong, and a crystal dewdrop was still rolling on the green leaves on top.

"Is this the gray cloud?" Xiao Lin was full of surprise. He looked down at himself. His clothes were complete. He didn't enter here with his spiritual consciousness, but his body came to this strange space.

The soil under his feet was very soft. This real feeling could not be brought by spiritual consciousness, but Xiao Lin had never heard that a cultivator could cultivate such a strange space. Could it be that he didn't really understand some common sense of cultivation?

Xiao Lin came to the sapling with great interest. The sapling was still half a foot tall, lush and green, and obviously very healthy. I don't know if it sensed Xiao Lin's arrival, but the green leaf shook twice.

After thinking for a while, Xiao Lin stretched out his hand again and flicked the green leaf of the sapling.

As expected, Xiao Lin was thrown out again. He looked at the two fire armored beasts beside him and fell into deep thought.

After a while, he looked inward again and focused his spiritual consciousness on the gray cloud near the center of his eyebrows. As expected, he appeared in the strange space again, and then he flicked the small leaf again and was thrown out again.

After doing this experiment three times, Xiao Lin stopped. He propped his head up and thought seriously.

Faintly, Xiao Lin felt that the strange space between his eyebrows should be related to the strange seed he got in the abyss. After all, after he swallowed it, he suppressed his nausea and searched for a long time, which meant that the seed was not excreted from his body, but lurked in his body.

This made Xiao Lin feel cold all over, and he secretly wondered if he was parasitized by the strange sapling. But after thinking about it, he felt that it was unlikely. The space where the sapling was was obviously independent. If it was really parasitic in his body, he would definitely not be unaware of it.

After thinking for a long time, Xiao Lin did not come up with any results, so he could only put this matter aside for the time being and study it carefully when he had time in the future.
