I Just Won’t Play by the Book

Chapter 436: Bitter cold

"come in."

Hearing the call from the senior brother, Wu Qingce took a deep breath, turned around and arched his hands towards Xia Lingdang and Qu Yangze.

"Brother Wu! I wish you every success!" Qu Yangze exclaimed in full spirit after returning the gift.

When Xia Lingdang next to him heard it, he quickly learned to say, "I wish Senior Brother Wu every success!"

"Thank you!"

Once again, Wu Qingce turned around and followed his senior into the formation room.

"hiss…"

As soon as he entered the formation room, Wu Qingce felt a biting cold. You must know that with his current cultivation base, even if he jumped into the extremely cold place and jumped into the ice lake, he would not feel anything.

However, the cooling of this formation room felt so deep to the bones.

After restraining himself from trembling, Wu Qingce's gaze was instantly attracted by a azure cauldron in the center of the formation room.

This tripod could not help exuding bursts of jasper-colored aura, and there were six lotus lamps around it constantly rotating around it.

"Sit cross-legged like a tripod."

Just when Wu Qingce wondered what the six lotus lamps were, the voice of the senior brother suddenly came into his ears.

"Yes!"

He arched his hands towards the senior, Wu Qingce took a step forward.

"hiss!!"

This time, Wu Qingce couldn't hold back anymore and trembled all over.

‘It’s cold, it’s too cold! ’

When he took a step towards the azure cauldron, the icy feeling rose again, making him almost afraid to breathe.

But only for a moment, Wu Qingce took another step forward.

"boom!"

This time, Wu Qingce directly transported his mind and exploded a blue thunder spirit.

Because at this point, he can no longer withstand the cold with the strength of his body alone. He even felt that if he hadn't reacted quickly, his feet would be completely frozen the moment he took that step.

Moreover, Wu Qingce had already determined that this piercing chill was emitted by the azure-colored tripod.

"Grumbling..." Wu Qingce couldn't help but swallowed his saliva.

It was so difficult just to get close to the cauldron, he couldn't imagine how terrible the cold he would endure when he sat in that cauldron.

‘Is this what the brother said is a life of nine deaths...’

Thinking of this, Wu Qingce clenched his fists abruptly and took another big step forward.

At this step, he came directly in front of the azure cauldron, and at the same time he felt the chill that could freeze his soul together.

Raising his hand, Wu Qingce found that a layer of frost had already condensed on the surface of his skin, that is, the frost had penetrated his thunder spirit and began to cause damage to his body.

In the next second, Wu Qingce began to feel his body gradually become stiff, it was obvious that the chill had penetrated into his body.

"what!"

At this time, Wu Qingce roared, and Lei Lingqi completely exploded, allowing his body to become flexible again, and he did not hesitate to jump into the azure cauldron.

As Wu Qingce expected, the intensity of the cold air in the azure cauldron rose directly by one level, and he almost thought his heartbeat had stopped at that moment.

At this moment, Wu Qingce knew that this chill was definitely not something he could resist, so he quickly sat down cross-legged while his body was barely able to move, and moved his mind with all his strength.

Seeing Wu Qingce sitting cross-legged in the tripod successfully, Jiang Beiran nodded with satisfaction.

If he couldn't pass this level, he would never let him take the Xuan Lei Nine Heaven Pill.

That's right, after failing twice, Jiang Beiran finally refined this mysterious high-grade pill.

That is to say, this profound thunder nine-day pill is already the limit that the alchemist can refining by strength, and then it must be the right time and place to reconcile people.

This kind of pill, even if it is taken to the Six Nations, it can cause many top sects to compete, and it is a struggle that spares no effort.

Originally, Jiang Beiran planned to serve Wu Qingce when he attacked Xuanhuang, but the higher the cultivator’s cultivation, the more difficult it is to change his physique. Therefore, after discovering that Wu Qingce’s growth rate was much faster than he expected, Jiang Beiran made a decisive decision. When Wu Qingce attacked King Xuan, he took this top-level panacea.

In fact, when Wu Qingce was accepted, Jiang Beiran just needed a little brother to help run errands, and didn't expect him to be of any help in combat power.

Because he saw that Wu Qingce was good at that time, but it was only good. At most, he was the king and hegemony in a small sect like Guixinzong, but once he met those real geniuses, his talent was not enough.

But the extent of Wu Qingce's desire to become stronger and the effort he put in for it shocked Jiang Beiran, and at the same time it touched Jiang Beiran.

In Jiang Beiran’s original plan, Wu Qingce was just a younger brother for the transition. One day someone with more talent will replace him. Jiang Beiran will keep him in Fengzhou and let him continue to shine here. In the end, it was not difficult to start a sect in Fengzhou.

But because Wu Qingce showed willpower far beyond ordinary people, and the ambition to constantly want to become stronger.

As he said himself.

He would rather die than spend his life banal.

So Jiang Beiran changed his plan. He planned to give Wu Qingce a chance, a chance to become stronger.

Can hard work be a strong one?

sure.

But the upper limit is very low.

The world has never been fair. Bloodlines, talents, birth, inheritance, etc. all determine that some people are born stronger than most.

They just take a breath of spiritual energy and gain more than countless cultivators who practice hard day and night for months.

In this completely unfair situation, the benefits of hard work are too small.

Because while you are working hard, those who are far more talented than you are also working hard, so why can you beat those who are far more talented than you?

So the first thing Jiang Beiran needs to do is to help Wu Qingce change his physique.

Let him stand on the same starting line as those talented, so that his efforts will become more meaningful, and he will have the opportunity to become a real strong.

Leiyan Body Tempering Pill can be said to be just a small test, Jiang Beiran first wants to see if Wu Qingce can pass this simplest flue-cured tobacco.

However, even if it was the simplest test, Wu Qingce almost lost his life several times. If Jiang Beiran had not fully prepared him, he would definitely not be able to survive it alone.

This is the price that ordinary people want to become gifted, but fortunately, Wu Qingce does have willpower far beyond ordinary people.

Otherwise, even if Jiang Beiran prepared everything for him, he would not be able to complete such a transformation.

So after the successful small test, Jiang Beiran's next step is to make a bold statement.

Before Wu Qingce's several promotions, Jiang Beiran presided over him, the purpose is to help him lay a solid foundation.

Otherwise, he won't have the chance to fight.

"Qing Ce." Jiang Beiran walked to the side of the Ji Zang tripod and shouted.

After a while, Wu Qingce opened his mouth with difficulty and replied with a vibrato: "...Yes."

"Don't die."

After listening to Wu Qingce's already frozen expression, he suddenly smiled. He clenched his fists and replied with all his strength: "Yes! Brother!"

Without speaking, Jiang Beiran took out a jar of Tianmendong wine from Qiankun Ring and poured it down into the tripod.

Then the second altar, the third altar...until the whole earth-zang tripod is filled.

Seeing Wu Qingce completely soaked in the wine, Jiang Beiran stretched out his hand and patted the tripod twice, and then walked out of the formation.
