Chapter 4349: Taking Advantage of the Fire

Originally, increasing the speed was not only a painful thing for Zuo Feng, but also made him more physically exhausted. More importantly, the aggravation of his injuries would also cause his body to collapse faster.

But now, Zuo Feng, in addition to enduring the severe pain from all parts of his body, did not need to worry about his body collapsing in a short period of time.

The effect of the cloud grass began to spread rapidly as he continued to move forward. Zuo Feng's body was like a ball of shriveled cotton. As long as the essence of the liquid medicine entered his body, it would be quickly absorbed.

However, if the liquid medicine was simply allowed to stay inside the body, it would be difficult for the effect to work. Because Zuo Feng was too weak and the injuries in his body were too serious.

At this time, he chose to speed up his walking regardless of the pain and consumption, and forced his blood to circulate. At the same time, the whole body was in a very active state.

The essence of the cloud grass liquid medicine spread rapidly and was released to all parts of the body. In this state, the more active the body is, the less the essence of the medicine will remain. The more seriously injured parts of the body will be deposited here because they are not active enough.

When he first started to move forward, Zuo Feng only found that this would help the essence of the medicine to spread and release. As he continued to move forward, the medicine continued to release its efficacy, and Zuo Feng realized that this method would have unexpected benefits for his current body recovery.

If possible, Zuo Feng hopes to continue moving forward like this until all the essence of the medicine in his body is absorbed into all parts of his body.

However, the distance of the Iron Heart Grass is not too far. According to Zuo Feng's current body, he walked about ten feet and came to the location of the Iron Heart Grass.

Slightly different from before, Zuo Feng first carefully observed the ugly little bumps on this Iron Heart Grass. It seems that only they are the existence that Zuo Feng is most interested in.

After just a little observation, Zuo Feng made a decision. This time, he did not use brute force to directly destroy the outer skin of the grass. Instead, he squeezed slowly and steadily when he approached a small lump.

When doing this, there was no obvious change on Zuo Feng's face, but from his eyes, one could see his unusual concentration.

Judging from Zuo Feng's technique, his squeezing obviously had a hint of trial, and it was obvious that he was not completely sure of his actions.

When squeezing at first, the lump actually squirmed slowly, and it seemed that it was filled with liquid. Although the small lump did not completely leave, it still moved in a small range.

Faced with such a change, Zuo Feng was a little puzzled at first, but soon remembered something, and then he began to become more determined when squeezing the lump.

Zuo Feng first used his hand to carefully test the edge, and when he determined the approximate range of the movement of the small lump, he began to use his arm, so that the range of pressing was a little larger.

When Zuo Feng "drove" the small lump to its limit, the small lump was fixed, so that no matter how he moved the lump, it would not move away.

But in this way, Zuo Feng had at least one arm, which needed to be pressed on the edge of the small lump all the time. Zuo Feng used the free hand to gently stroke the small lump, and it seemed that he was afraid of using too much force and destroying the appearance of the lump.

But if you pay attention, you will find that during this stroking process, Zuo Feng seemed to be looking for something, but it was in a way that could not be seen and could only be felt by touching with the palm of the hand.

As Zuo Feng's palm wandered on the surface of the lump, his expression became more and more solemn. Because although he did not look back, he could judge the distance of the insects from the "rustling" sound by relying on his ears.

If he did not gain anything, he would have to give up the iron heart grass that he had finally found. After all, no matter how precious this herb is, it is meaningless if you don't have the life to refine and absorb it.

Moreover, Zuo Feng now at least has a large amount of Yuncao liquid in his body, which can be used for refining and absorption. Even if he misses this opportunity, the worst that can happen is to continue looking.

Although thinking this in his heart, Zuo Feng still does not want to give up, because he knows very well that although he has Yuncao to help him recover, it is still not enough to deal with the insects chasing behind him.

If he can find other suitable medicinal materials quickly, there will still be a chance, but if he can't find suitable medicinal materials in a short time, his life will still be difficult to save.

Therefore, Zuo Feng does not intend to give up easily, even if he knows that his time is very precious, he still intends to stick to the end and try hard again.

When Zuo Feng was hesitating in his heart and thinking about whether to give up, his slowly moving hand suddenly stopped.

His palm stayed in place, but his fingers were like playing a piano, gently playing on the surface of the lump, as if to determine a certain existence in the lump, its exact location, and its own outline.

It didn't take too long for Zuo Feng's palm to stop again, then he suddenly bent his fingers and pressed down hard into the inside of the lump.

Without any warning, when Zuo Feng attacked, his entire palm turned into an afterimage, which shows how fast he attacked.

In addition, when Zuo Feng attacked this time, his face turned slightly red, and the veins on his forehead were slightly bulging. It can be seen how serious his attack was.

And this way of attack was not used by Zuo Feng to stay away from the bugs chasing him, but to treat an ugly lump, which seemed particularly weird.

Because the speed of the attack was very fast, almost at the moment when the lump broke, Zuo Feng's hand had already grabbed a black crystal that was a circle larger than his hand from the lump.

However, the surface of the crystal was stained with a part of dark red liquid, and at the same time, after the lump broke, a lot of dark red liquid flowed out.

The weirdest thing was that the moment the dark red liquid came into contact with the outside world, a faint white mist began to rise. Not only the lump itself, but also the iron heart grass was being corroded rapidly.

However, Zuo Feng ignored all of this, and even ignored the dark red liquid on his palm, which had damaged his palm. His eyes were fixed on the black crystal in his palm.

The dark red liquid on the surface of the crystal also had white smoke rising, and the speed of corrosion was much faster than the damage to Zuo Feng's palm and the iron heart grass.

The black crystal, which was originally larger than Zuo Feng's palm, became smaller than Zuo Feng's fist in the blink of an eye.

Fortunately, there was not much red liquid on the surface of the crystal, so even if it was corroded, there was still more left than what was corroded.

When the smoke on the black crystal in Zuo Feng's palm completely disappeared, Zuo Feng did not hesitate at all, took it to his mouth, and bit it hard with his teeth.

Although this crystal was still hard, it was basically like an ice cube, and it could still be broken with a little force.

Zuo Feng raised his head slightly, not only swallowed the crystal he bit off, but also carefully did not waste the debris that fell when he bit the crystal.

After the crystal fell into the mouth, there would be a burst of salty taste, as if swallowing a piece of salt. But soon the mouth could not feel the taste, because it was completely occupied by the burning feeling.

It is no exaggeration to say that at this time Zuo Feng felt that his mouth was like being set on fire. And this burning feeling is still extending from the mouth all the way down. Obviously, the part that the swallowed crystal touches is affected by this burning feeling.

Even though he was enduring such severe pain, Zuo Feng's face still showed a rare smile. Only he knew clearly that the essence of the iron heart grass had been obtained by himself.

In comparison, the essence of the iron heart grass is the black crystal inside it. However, it is not an easy task to obtain the black crystal.

Because the liquid that breeds this crystal will have a strong corrosive effect once it comes into contact with the air. Once this effect breaks out, not only the crystal inside, but also the medicinal material itself will be destroyed.

As for the method of obtaining the crystal, Zuo Feng also came to the result after exploration and trial according to his experience in refining medicine. In fact, he did not expect that after the crystal was corroded, it could still leave such a large piece for him.

According to the previous experience of refining medicine, if the red liquid is accidentally exposed to the outside world, the black crystal inside will be completely lost.

On the contrary, the method of mixing medicine learned from Zhuang Yu can squeeze out the internal liquid little by little through exposure to the sun, and then take out the crystal completely.

Now Zuo Feng certainly does not have time to slowly squeeze out the internal liquid, so he can only use this method of taking chestnuts from the fire to take out the black crystal.

While enduring the burning pain, he bit the black crystal into pieces and swallowed it into his stomach. Zuo Feng did not dare to stay for long and ran forward quickly.

In just a blink of an eye, the iron heart grass had been corroded by the red liquid, and the other lumps were obviously lost.

However, Zuo Feng did not care too much about it. Being able to get one of the largest crystals was already a great gain for him.

In addition, although he felt severe pain, it was actually just a reaction to the drug's effect, and it did not cause any harm to the body.

If it is refined, this burning pain effect will be reconciled by other drugs. Now Zuo Feng obviously does not have such conditions. He must endure the severe pain and simply and roughly refine the essence of the Iron Heart Grass.
