Chapter 18 If God Helps the Demon God Cauldron

What you fear will come true.

Xu Hei was just worried about when the snake fruit would ripen, but as soon as he thought of this, it ripened immediately.

The moment the snake fruit ripened, the smell floated out along the cracks in the soil. Xu Hei didn't care about anything and immediately went forward and swallowed all three ripe fruits into his stomach.

"Hmm?"

On the ground, Mu Yun's eyes widened, staring at the ground.

Just now, he sensed a trace of spiritual power fluctuations caused by the ripening of the snake fruit. Although he didn't know the exact location, it was deep underground.

"Underground!"

He sank his feet without hesitation and drilled into the soil.

It was a common technique among cultivators, the earth escape technique.

When you reach the middle stage of Qi Refining, you can learn the five elements techniques and have the means of immortals in the eyes of mortals. This is the essential difference between the middle stage and the early stage.

If it is only the early stage, you can only use talismans and magic weapons to exert your strength.

"Underground?"

Zhao Wenzhuo's eyes flickered and his brows frowned.

"Sister Song, I just wrongly blamed you. It's all my fault. I apologize to you."

"I don't know what kind of master is hiding underground. We should leave quickly to avoid causing trouble."

Zhao Wenzhuo bowed with a slightly apologetic look.

Song Shiyu said nothing, turned away with an indifferent expression.

Zhao Wenzhuo's eyes flashed with coldness and followed the latter.

At this moment.

Although Xu Hei did not emit his spiritual consciousness, he could clearly feel the vibration underground, and there was an unspeakable sense of crisis in his heart.

"He is coming down. This is the Five Elements Technique, Earth Escape Technique!"

The human knowledge in Xu Hei's mind has an introduction to this technique.

The other party came for the snake tree. Xu Hei no longer hesitated, bit the snake tree, and drilled deep into the ground.

The other party obviously didn't know the specific location, and deviated from the direction, and did not find Xu Hei.

After drilling for a distance, Xu Hei spit out the snake tree and operated the technique with all his strength to digest the energy of the snake fruit in his body.

"Refine it for me quickly! Refine it for me quickly!"

Xu Hei was roaring in his heart.

At this moment, being chased by a human cultivator in the middle stage of Qi Refining, Xu Hei had an unprecedented sense of crisis. This was not brought by the monster, but by humans.

Compared to the clumsy body and mind of the monster, the danger brought by humans is more than ten times more!

Because you don't know what cards the other party has, whether there is any hidden cultivation, and whether there is any secret protection behind.

Everything is unknown.

Xu Hei is not willing to take risks by nature. He will not take action unless he is more than 90% sure! Not to mention that at this moment, the other party's cultivation is higher than his, the magic weapon is higher than his, and the magic is even more overwhelming. Xu Hei can't find a chance of winning.

Can only hide! Can only escape!

Xu Hei bit the snake tree and kept shuttling underground. After escaping a distance, he stopped and tried his best to refine the snake fruit.

And the other party also used earth escape technique to keep chasing.

However, the speed of earth escape technique is far slower than that of land, and it consumes a lot of true energy. He has to adjust his breath from time to time, which makes him chase slowly.

Mu Yun has discovered that the opponent is hiding underground. Although his consciousness has not been able to lock the opponent, he has found the escape route.

"He is quite good at escaping! His earth escape technique is not inferior to mine, but I don't know how much he has practiced."

"Hmph, no matter how much you have practiced! As long as you are not a foundation-building cultivator with the magic weapon left by my master, I will kill you!"

Mu Yun guessed that the opponent should be a rookie who has just entered the middle stage of Qi Refining. He didn't even dare to show his head and was only concerned with escaping. Obviously, he had no confidence in winning against him.

This made him more determined to chase.

"Dare to steal my snake catcher's things, you will die today!"

Mu Yun took a Huiyuan Pill, and his speed increased sharply, moving quickly through the mud.

Xu Hei also risked his life and tried his best to open a path in the mud.

"Refine it for me!" Xu Hei shouted in his heart.

Suddenly, it seemed to be summoned by him.

A strong attraction suddenly erupted in the Demon God Cauldron, sucking the snake fruit into it. The snake fruit melted at a speed visible to the naked eye, transmitting pure energy and feeding back to the whole body.

Xu Hei was overjoyed, it finally started.

As long as the Demon God Cauldron started to operate, he could escape and refine at the same time, without any mistakes.

The spiritual cloud in the Demon God Cauldron soon reached 100%.

The black and gold scales on Xu Hei's tail were rapidly transforming, and the eighth scale was also in the process of transformation, at an extremely fast speed, reaching an unprecedented level.

The eighth scale, the ninth scale!

It was almost visible to the naked eye, and it was completed in an instant!

The scales stopped at nine scales and stopped moving, as if they had reached the extreme number, and the spiritual cloud was also in a state of 100% overflowing, no longer increasing.

Xu Hei immediately realized that he had reached the bottleneck of his cultivation, the third level of the spiritual stage.

For humans, it would be the third level of the Qi Refining Stage.

The next step is the middle stage.

At this moment, the remaining snake fruit in the Demon God Cauldron was being rapidly digested, but the spiritual energy seemed to be rising and falling, sometimes overflowing, sometimes shrinking, and could never cross that layer of obstacles.

Xu Hei gritted his teeth and made up his mind. He directly tore off a branch of the snake tree, including half of the bark, and swallowed it into his stomach.

As soon as the snake tree entered the body, it immediately underwent drastic changes.

Just like a calm water surface, when red-hot iron is thrown into it, the water surface immediately boils. The spiritual cloud in the Demon God Cauldron expanded rapidly, becoming more and more violent.

When it expanded to the limit, it began to compress inward, and a trace of spiritual liquid appeared in the cloud.

It was no longer mist, but droplets, dotted in the Demon God Cauldron.

Xu Hei's body was also undergoing earth-shaking changes. His muscles were bulging, his bones were trembling, his fangs were growing, and even his body, which had not moved for a long time, was getting longer.

"Hiss, hiss, hiss!!!"

Xu Hei screamed, unable to move a step, and stopped where he was.

The spiritual energy was compressed, and his body was transformed.

An old snake skin slowly fell off his body, and a brand new body was emerging from the old snake skin.

Shedding skin represents rebirth. Every time Xu Hei breaks through, he will shed skin.

Fifteen meters away, Mu Yun, who had been following him, finally stopped. At this moment, his eyes were full of disbelief, and his consciousness was locked in front of him, as if he had seen a ghost.

"This, this is..."

He thought he had seen it wrong, and he repeatedly confirmed it, and then he took a breath of cold air.

His mind was a little solidified. He really couldn't believe that he had been chasing for a long time, from morning to night, and he was not chasing a cunning monk, but a snake?

He knew that demon beasts were spiritual, so it was called the spiritual period.

But how could a demon beast be like this? No one saw it, it was running in the soil, and it was holding a tree in its mouth. How could it be spiritual? It was simply a spirit!

What made him even more incomprehensible was that this tree seemed to have been dug up by someone? How did it end up in the hands of a snake?

Mu Yun's mind raced, and he hesitated for a moment, wondering whether he should go forward.

He imagined a possibility, that is, a powerful person took over the body and rebuilt with the body of a demon beast, but this kind of thing was too outrageous, and he really couldn't believe it.

"This demon can't be killed, it must be captured alive, maybe it will attract the attention of the headquarters!"

Mu Yun made up his mind, his eyes were hot.
