Cultivation starts from being a ghost

Chapter 416 On a whim
Orange flames were burning on the mountains, and the temperature was surprisingly high. Everyone's bodies shone with brilliant brilliance. It was obvious that the treasures like ice beads on their bodies were running crazily.

Kong Ming threw a black iron ore into the flames below, and the ore melted soon.

"Good guy, this flame is actually much stronger than the ground fire!"

What makes everyone strange is that there are no plants on the mountain, and it is not an open-pit coal mine. What is it that burns and emits such a high temperature?

Qin Chuan came from the era of the end of the law when science and technology flourished, and he majored in chemical engineering, so he was used to looking at problems from the perspective of elements.

He originally thought it might be a colorless, odorless, flammable gas coming from the ground, such as natural gas, but he was startled by an earth-shattering explosion in the distance, and then a mushroom cloud rising. It looked too much like some kind of nuclear explosion. up!
And just after the explosion, the temperature suddenly rose dozens of times. Even if there was a magic weapon to resist the high temperature, everyone could hardly bear it, and immediately fled to the distance.

"Qin Daoyou, is this the result of your whim?" Lin Shaobai started talking nonsense again.

Qin Chuan smiled slightly, "Fellow Daoist Lin is blaming me? If you think I'm incompetent as the captain, I can recognize you!"

"Is that what you said?"

"I said it!"

"Okay, let's re-elect a captain!"

Everyone, look at me, I look at you, it seems that Qin Chuan made a "mistake" in choosing the route this time, but it's not a big deal, just choose another route, Lin Shaobai must have something else to say thought up.

"Then you guys choose a new captain, I'm going to get the treasure first!" Qin Chuan didn't wait for everyone's reaction, and flew high into the sky with the escape light, and then flew to the depths of the Flame Mountain.

"It doesn't matter to me, Old Chu!" After speaking, he flew away after him.

"What treasure? I'm going to see it too!" Kong Ming and the Su brothers and sisters winked and followed. Su Yifei was naturally a husband and wife, but Su Yifeng didn't follow.

"Senior Sister, brother Qin must have found something, let's go and see!"

Chen Peng and Wen Wan also followed, leaving only Lin Shaobai, Zhang Xiaoming, Zhang Xiaomo, Qi Huaishan and Su Yifeng in place.

"That... I'll go and have a look too!" Qi Huaishan hesitated and left.

"Brother Lin, do you have any plans?" Zhang Xiaoming asked hesitantly.

"Don't you realize that the surname Qin is a bit weird?"

"You mean on a whim?"

"Yeah, I always feel that he has ulterior motives. If he wants to cheat us, it will be too late to cry!"

"Senior brother, you are overthinking, we made a promise to the heart demon before we came!"

"Can you guarantee that oaths are useful in this world?"

Zhang Xiaoming's face became cloudy, but he finally shook his head, "I don't think Fellow Daoist Qin is that kind of person, and he has no reason to harm us!"

"Knowing people, knowing face but not heart, how many times have you dated him? By the way, Su Daoyou seems to only know that he is good at refining weapons?"

Su Yifeng nodded and said: "We don't have a deep friendship with him either!"

"Then... what does Senior Brother Lin mean?"

"We can't always let him lead us by the nose. Even if we don't change the team leader, I don't think we can follow the route he said!"

"This is easy to handle. We will designate a route together later, and they will agree!"

Zhang Xiaomo suddenly said, "Don't talk about that, let's go see what good stuff Daoist Qin found!"

……

Qin Chuan didn't find anything by himself, but he believed that the white-headed horse monkey and Fu Yuanqing would not lie to him. After flying for about three or four hundred miles, he had reached the central area of ​​the Flame Mountain.

The temperature here is obviously higher than the edge area, but the flames are not connected together, there are many places to stay, and the color of the flames has also changed from orange to golden.

Suddenly, he found a cluster of dancing flames on a burning black and red boulder, like a fire bird, very agile.

"Old Qin, what did you see?" Chu Tianlong followed his gaze and let out a "Huh".

"Haha, following Captain Qin, I did not follow the wrong person. It turns out that there is a spiritual fire here!" Kong Ming and Su Yifei also arrived, followed by Chen Peng and Wen Wan, and finally Qi Huaishan. Huo Huo, everyone showed surprise expressions.

The so-called spiritual fire refers to the flame condensed by the essence of flame, and it already has spirituality, which belongs to the category of heaven and earth spirits. If it evolves further, it will form an innate fire spirit, which will be even more extraordinary.

Spiritual fire is not only helpful in refining alchemy, it can also be used as a magical power against enemies after refining. The volcanic rock fire refined by Qin Chuan is a kind of spiritual fire, and its value and practicality are even higher than ordinary spiritual objects. Therefore, everyone is jealous, even Qi Huaishan, who has refined the purple fire, is no exception, because different spiritual fires have different uses, and the spiritual fire on the boulder not far away is golden yellow, which seems to be the condensed fire of the sun, and it has begun to take shape In the form of a fire bird, its value is immeasurable.

"Brother Qin, this cluster of spiritual fire is my fault, I will make it up to you later!" Kong Ming spoke first.

"Old Kong, do you have a first-come-first-served one? Even if Lao Qin gives up, it won't be your turn!" Chu Tianlong took out a bottle-shaped magic weapon, and was about to strike first.

Of course, Chen Peng and the others didn't want to give up, and they argued for a while.

"Everyone, there is more than one cluster of spiritual fire here, look over there!" Several people followed the direction pointed by Qin Chuan, scanned the past with their spiritual sense, and found another similar cluster of spiritual fire.

"Fuck, this is really a treasure, let's look for it again!"

In a short period of time, a total of more than [-] clusters of spiritual fires were found within a radius of a hundred miles. Since then, there was no need for everyone to argue, and they all showed their magical powers to collect the spiritual fires.

Collecting spiritual fire is a technical task. This thing already has spirituality, and it flees immediately when it senses danger. Once it escapes, it is impossible to find it again in this flaming mountain with a radius of thousands of miles, so two clusters of spiritual fire were lost after running away. Afterwards, several people began to divide and cooperate, Wen Wan and Chen Peng came to set up the formation, and the others chased and intercepted...

After everyone had harvested, Lin Shaobai, Zhang Xiaoming and other talents came late. Seeing a few people "in full swing" collecting spirit fire, their intestines turned green with regret.

In this world of flames where iron is melted into gold, mana is consumed extremely quickly. Every once in a while, everyone has to fly to the sky to breathe for a while, and the violent explosions from time to time also make people feel frightened.

Qin Chuan secretly let Yaya out, these flames were the best delicacy for her, and he also collected three clusters of spiritual fire, one for refining himself, one for Mu Yilianer, and the rest Keep the next cluster as a backup, or hand it over to the sect.

Before leaving the Flame Mountain, he planned to get a few burning stones and study them after returning.

He poured water first, and found that not only failed to extinguish the fire, but almost exploded, and then buried it with sand, but the sand was also burned. Finally, he used a lot of weak water, which barely extinguished the flame on a stone.

He thought that these stones would be very dense after being calcined, but after getting them, he found that the texture was extremely light, and he could see that the surface was covered with pores that could not be discerned with the naked eye, which made him wonder about this kind of stone that he had never seen before. material is more interesting.

"Monkey, you said that the stones on the Flame Mountain come from the sun star?"

"That's right, there are several other flaming mountains like this one, but they are all far away!"

"Fu Yuanqing, what do you think about this?"

"This flaming mountain existed thousands of years ago. At that time, the flames could reach a height of more than ten feet, but now they are only one or two feet high. It will probably be extinguished in a short time, so I guess those stones should be some kind of very burnable fuel. !"

Qin Chuan nodded secretly, he thought so too, and the constant explosions were somewhat similar to small nuclear explosions, maybe these stones were an unprecedented material that was more prone to fusion.

Half a day later, the 11-member team left the range of the Flame Mountain, and then found a slightly cooler place to rest.

Lin Shaobai, Zhang Xiaoming and the others exchanged glances, then coughed lightly and said, "Although I have gained a little this time, I don't think Fellow Daoist Qin is suitable to continue to be the captain!"

"Old Lin, I don't like to hear you talk out of conscience. Is this a little gain? A cluster of spiritual fire can catch up to half of the harvest from the previous few days. If you want to be the captain, just say so, there is no need to beat around the bush!"

"What is conscience, I'm doing it for everyone's benefit. Forget it, if you don't change the captain, you won't change. I think it's more appropriate for us to go west!" He changed the subject directly.

"Yeah, I always feel a bit uneasy going south!" Su Yifeng echoed.

"I have a hunch that Xiangxi will definitely gain a lot for us!"

"Come on, old Zhang, do you want to play on a whim like Lao Qin?" Chu Tianlong teased, and everyone couldn't help laughing.

Zhang Xiaoming blushed slightly, and did not argue.

Qin Chuan also said with a smile: "Since you are all planning to go west, then go west!"

Chen Peng is mature and prudent, and he didn't want serious disagreements within the team, so he also said: "Brother Qin has always been very competent as the team leader. I think everyone can't deny this. Naturally, he should be the team leader. It's better, anyway, you don't have a clear goal, so choose to go west!"

The direction was set, and after finishing repairs, the 11-person team began to head westward. I don’t know if the luck has run out, and the next harvest has been bad. At first, it could be explained that it was too close to the Flame Mountain, but it flew ten thousand miles. For the rest of the year, the harvest has not increased, but even less.

"Damn it, it took me a long time to find such a thing!" Chu Tianlong cursed, and put a wind demon copper ore that could barely be called a spiritual material into the storage bracelet.

"Yeah, I feel like someone has searched here, look over there..." Su Yifei pointed to an ancient pine forest and said.

Everyone came over to see that this ancient pine forest is rich in poria cocos, and there are obvious traces of being excavated in several places, and the footprints on the ground are still very fresh.

Chu Tianlong walked up to Zhang Xiaoming, laughed and said: "Old Zhang, it seems that your premonition is not very good, tsk tsk, I said, how come you have so little harvest, so it turns out that you are picking up trash after someone else's ass!"

Lin Shaobai who was not far away felt a fever on his face when he heard this. It was a naked slap in the face, but he still had nothing to say. When the evil fire in his heart had no place to vent, he suddenly heard the mountain peak where the ancient pine forest was located. Then there was a roar of a beast, and he decided to vent his anger on the beast.

After he flew to the mountain, he found a group of people besieging two five or six feet long monsters with heads like wild boars, tusks like elephants, and black hairs like steel needles all over their bodies.

The two monsters have amazing defenses and powerful attacks, but they don't know how to fly, so no matter how they roar, they can only be beaten passively.

When Lin Shaobai noticed the leader of the young man in black clothes, he couldn't help shrinking his eyes, and the group of monks also found him, the young man in black clothes joked, "Hehe, what a coincidence, do we think we are on a narrow road?"

"Jiang Rui, this is the Taishi Realm, our grievances will be settled after returning to the sect!"

The young man in Xuanyi sneered, "What kind of grievance do we have? You are just my defeated opponent, and you have been trying to find your way back!"

"You...huh, whatever you say, I won't accompany you anymore!" Lin Shaobai turned around and left. He said it hard, but doing so was already tantamount to giving in, but the young man in Xuanyi named Jiang Rui Obviously not going to let him go.

"Wait, did I let you go?"

Lin Shaobai turned around, his face extremely ugly, "What do you want?"

"I heard that you have improved a lot in the way of swordsmanship recently, why don't we learn from each other?"

Lin Shaobai knows that he is not yet an opponent, but letting him say soft words in person is tantamount to breaking his heart. When he was in a dilemma, Zhang Xiaoming flew over, "Senior Brother Jiang, everyone The same sect, why bother to get so tense, we have to wait until later, I think it’s better to forget it now!"

"Oh, it turns out that your kid is with him, well, I'll give you a face!"

"Thank you, Senior Brother Jiang, then let's go first!" Zhang Xiaoming pulled Lin Shaobai and was about to leave, when Jiang Rui's voice came from behind, "Wait~"

"Brother, is there anything else?"

"Keep what you have gained these days!"

"what do you mean?"

"I still don't understand, of course it's money for my life!"

"You..." Even Zhang Xiaoming's expression turned ugly now, he didn't expect Jiang Rui to be so domineering.

Qin Chuan and the others had also arrived long ago, and the conversation between the two sides was naturally heard, "Brother Kong, is this the Jiang Rui you mentioned?"

"That's him. He was the No. 1 among the foundation-building monks in Zhongzhou back then. He was decisive and ruthless. I'm afraid it's hard to be kind today!"

Qin Chuan nodded, then turned to Zhang Xiaomo and asked, "Zhang Daoyou, since you are from the same sect, why are you making trouble to such an extent?"

"Sigh... It's a family scandal. There are many factions in the Taiyi Sect. Lin Shaobai's master and Jiang Rui's master are deadly rivals. The two sides fought fiercely and almost ended up dying, so..."

"It turns out to be like this!" Qin Chuan understood in his heart that similar situations exist in all sects and sects, and he has also heard of several major sects in Hades Sect. It became a pot of porridge.

At this moment, Lin Shaobai finally couldn't bear it any longer, and started to fight with that guy named Jiang Rui.
