The Black Tortoise was one of the overlords under the water, and it had cultivated in the depths of the lake for more than 6,200 years. It had already mastered spirituality. Only Qu Chu, a master of the Sanctuary, could subdue it when he came here today. Moreover, the Black Tortoise's fate was not very good. If Tang Xiaoxi had not absorbed too much Spiritual Qi from the Fire Flood Dragon and evaporated half of the lake water, the Black Tortoise would not have been discovered by Qu Chu.
…
As soon as the Green Gourd Martial Soul touched the cold and soft beast spirit of the Black Tortoise, it absorbed the Spiritual Qi crazily as if it was a good rain after a drought. Lin Muyu sat there with her eyes closed, but her whole body was trembling. Although her eyes were closed, waves of air had been generated in the bottom of her heart. She could even look inside her Dantian, only to find that her Dantian had been burned dry by the Fire Flood Dragon. The vines that grew out of the Martial Soul Gourd had been burned to a mess and were crazily absorbing the Spiritual Qi of the Black Tortoise. The scorched black vines of the gourd also gradually returned to the original green color, as if they were healing themselves quickly.
Lin Muyu was amazed. It was amazing that she could see the Martial Soul Gourd with her eyes closed.
After absorbing for nearly 20 minutes, the burns on the Green Gourd had basically healed, and the branches and leaves seemed more luxuriant. Lin Muyu also felt that the injuries in her meridians and bones had all been healed. An invisible force was surging in the Green Gourd, and it seemed that it would not be satisfied until it was released. Was it going to break through?
Lin Muyu secretly rejoiced and called in the bottom of her heart, "Lulu, are you still there?"
"Brother, I'm here!"
In Yi Hai, the beautiful figure of the elf female official Lulu appeared. She flapped her transparent wings and appeared in front of Lin Muyu. She smiled and said, "Brother, are you refining this gourd again?"
"Yeah, can you help me see what materials I need to advance to the next level?"
Lulu opened her small mouth and looked at the huge body of the Black Tortoise outside. She said, "Wow, it's a thousand-year-old Black Tortoise. Brother, this is a top-grade refining material. There's a scarlet shell in the center of the Black Tortoise's shell, which is the most precious part of the Black Tortoise's body. It's called the 'Fire Armor'. Although this Fire Armor isn't big, it contains the Black Tortoise's thousands of years of cultivation. Brother, take this Fire Armor out and put it into the refining cauldron.
"En!"
Lin Muyu slowly opened her eyes and said to Tang Xiaoxi, "Princess Xi, please do me a favor."
Tang Xiaoxi was a little embarrassed. She turned her face away and was afraid to look Lin Muyu in the eyes. It seemed that after facing Lin Muyu naked, it was difficult for her to face him. She said softly, "En, say it."
"In the middle of the Black Tortoise's shell, there's a fiery red shell. Can you dig it out with a knife and give it to me?"
"En, sure!" Although Tang Xiaoxi didn't know what he wanted to do, she knew that Lin Muyu saved her life not long ago, so she had to help him.
The Fire Armor was the most precious part of the Black Tortoise. Because the Black Tortoise belonged to the water attribute, it was cold, but the Spiritual Energy it absorbed contained both water and fire. Therefore, the Black Tortoise refined all the Spiritual Energy of the Fire on its shell and formed the Fire Armor. The spirituality of this Fire Armor was far better than that of the other shells. This was also the reason why the Fire Armor was so precious. Originally, he planned to take it back to practice, but he did not expect that this boy was so knowledgeable. Well, he had already stepped into the Sanctuary-realm, so there was no need to compete with the younger generation.
A few minutes later, Tang Xiaoxi jumped off the back of the Black Tortoise with a huge shell about one meter in diameter, drenched in sweat. She handed it to Lin Muyu and said, "Mu, what do you want this for?"
Lin Muyu smiled mysteriously, "Refine it! I'll have to trouble Princess and Qu Chu to protect me for a while. "
"En."
…
Qu Chu and Tang Xiaoxi couldn't see the Refining Cauldron. All they could see was a faint glowing energy. Lin Muyu just threw the Fire Armor out. Suddenly, the energy fluctuated violently. He had begun to refine it. This time, he didn't need other materials. The energy of the Fire Armor alone was enough for the Green Gourd Martial Soul to make a breakthrough.
The Fire Armor in the Refining Cauldron slowly became smaller, turning into pure fire power and seeping into the Green Gourd. This process lasted for about 30 minutes.
When Lin Muyu stood up from the ground, his temperament and expression seemed to have changed greatly. Even Tang Xiaoxi couldn't help but say, "You … you seem to be different …"
Qu Chu saw through it and smiled, "He has broken through the second hurdle of the Human Realm and stepped into the third hurdle. Now his strength should be at level 27. Of course, he is different."
"Ah, so fast?!" Tang Xiaoxi was stunned, "I … I'm just …"
Qu Chu said: "Princess, you have absorbed too much of the Fire Dragon's spirit energy, but it is also a blessing in disguise. Your strength has already stepped into the 36th level of the war master. Congratulations, to be able to step into the first level of the Earth Realm at the age of less than 20 is considered rare in the empire."
Tang Xiaoxi was secretly happy.
Lin Muyu said, "Qu, I was actually able to close my eyes and see the appearance of the Green Gourd. What's going on?"
Qu Chu couldn't help but laugh, "Because you have broken through to the third hurdle of the Human Realm. The most obvious improvement for a cultivator at the third hurdle of the Human Realm is the ability to look inside. You actually don't understand such a simple thing. Oh right, Princess Xi, when your Fire Fox absorbed the Fire Dragon's spirit energy, did you refine the Fire Dragon's skill?"
"No …" Tang Xiaoxi shook her head in disappointment.
"Where's Kid Lin?" Qu Chu asked again.
"I think so." Lin Muyu smiled slightly.
"Huh?" Qu Chu and Tang Xiaoxi were both shocked, "Quickly show us."
"Yes."
At this moment, Lin Muyu felt that his entire body was filled with powerful energy, and he had to spit it out. After a low shout, the green gourd came out of his body, and with a wave of his hand, a gigantic gourd appeared in front of him in a defensive arc. He activated his skill, and with a "weng" sound, a scorching flame quickly spat out, and actually condensed into a fiery red Black Tortoise Shell in front of the gourd.
"Black Tortoise Shell …"
Qu Chu was secretly shocked, and said: "Although your Green Gourd is only a tenth rank martial spirit, it has broken through twice and refined two martial spirit skills, it is truly rare! Xiao Xi, use your Fire Fox to test the defense of Lin Muyu's Black Tortoise Shell. "
"Can I? Mu? " Tang Xiaoxi asked carefully, after all, she was already in the first layer of the Earth Realm, one level higher than her opponent, and the Fire Fox was a second-rank martial spirit, which was much stronger than the green gourd. It would be bad if she accidentally hurt her opponent.
Lin Muyu was just about to test the defense of the Black Tortoise Shell, so he nodded happily, "Come on, princess!"
Tang Xiaoxi was also a little excited, and with a "weng" sound, flames surrounded her, and the Fire Fox came out of her body, and with a shrill sound, it hit the wall of the gourd released from Lin Muyu's palm.
"Bang!"
The Fire Fox was of the fire attribute, but so was the Black Tortoise Shell. Under the attack, Lin Muyu retreated a few steps, and the blood in her chest was surging. Good heavens, although Tang Xiaoxi looked like a delicate and beautiful girl, her real strength was really strong. This attack almost numbed my arm, and it seemed that she did not use her full strength, otherwise I would not feel good.
Tang Xiaoxi was also stunned. At least 80% of the Fire Fox's strength was used in this attack, and she thought that it could penetrate the Black Tortoise Shell, so she could quickly withdraw her strength and not hurt Lin Muyu. However, Tang Xiaoxi did not expect that after the attack of the Fire Fox, the Black Tortoise Shell was not damaged at all. Although Lin Muyu was repelled, it was only because of her advantage in the power of fire, and it did not mean that the Fire Fox had defeated the green gourd.
This made her a little sad. She was born in the famous Tang Family of Qihai City, and she had comprehended the Fire Fox Martial Soul at a young age. None of the elder brothers in the family had comprehended the Fire Fox, except for her. This was also one of the reasons why her grandfather loved her so much. The Fire Fox was the symbol of the family, and also the symbol of power. But now, her second-grade Martial Soul could only be tied with Lin Muyu's tenth-grade Martial Soul. This was a big blow to the competitive Tang Xiaoxi.
However, looking at Lin Muyu's frowning face, Tang Xiaoxi could not be cruel. Instead, she felt that she might have hurt him, and felt a little guilty. She put away the Fire Fox and asked, "Mu, are you okay?"
Her question made Lin Muyu feel embarrassed. She shook her head and said, "I'm fine. The attack of the Fire Fox was too shocking for Green Gourd, and my arm is a little numb …"
Tang Xiaoxi smiled happily, "That's good. I was afraid that I would hurt you!"
Qu Chu said from the side, "This kid's cultivation is not low, and Green Gourd has refined the Black Tortoise Shell. She is already a defense-type Martial Soul, so it won't be easy for you to hurt him."
Tang Xiaoxi stuck out her tongue, "I didn't want to hurt him!"
Lin Muyu smiled silently.
… …
It was already dark outside. Qu Chu looked at the sky and said, "We probably won't be able to leave tonight. Since Princess Xi has broken through to the first level of the earth realm, this old man's mission is considered complete. We'll spend the night in the open and return to Silver Fir City at full speed tomorrow morning."
"Alright."
They set up a campfire. They had planned to bake some buns, but Tang Xiaoxi felt that she was sick of eating too many buns, so she took out a pot from her backpack and decided to make some meat soup. It was already late, and it was impossible to hunt rabbits, so they could only gather meat on the spot. They dug out a large piece of meat from the Black Tortoise and another piece from the Fire Dragon. The two types of meat were incompatible, so it was a novelty to cook them together. Moreover, Qu Chu often slept in the wild, so he actually brought salt and seasonings. Lin Muyu gathered some wild vegetables and threw them into the pot to cook. Not long after, a thick fragrance spread from the bottom of the mountain.
After entering the Seven Stars Forest, Tang Xiaoxi hadn't eaten anything delicious. Now that she could finally eat to her heart's content, Lin Muyu ate a lot as well. The more energy he absorbed, the more he needed to replenish himself.
When night fell, Tang Xiaoxi fell asleep again. She lay on her side with her back facing Lin Muyu. This beautiful princess could sleep much more than Lin Muyu and Qu Chu, so it was no wonder that she was so slender and elegant. If she could stay up all day like Qu Chu, then she would definitely look like him, with her skin as rough as tree bark.
… …
Lin Muyu didn't sleep. After practicing Thunder Strike and flying daggers for a few hours, she went into the depths of the lake alone.
"This kid …"
Qu Chu narrowed his eyes and opened his domain. After sensing that there were no threats in the surroundings, he followed, only to find that Lin Muyu had dived into the depths of the lake. A few minutes later, she surfaced with a cluster of fragrant lotus flowers in her arms. Under the moonlight, these lotuses glowed with color and were exceptionally enchanting.
