In the dark space, a hazy mist rolled everywhere, and a black and white bead suspended, surrounded by intricate and mysterious patterns, marks, and runes.
"Life and death beads? Isn't this bead fused with my soul?"
Luo Xiu was slightly taken aback, and then suddenly realized, "Is it that the space where my consciousness is now located is the soul space?"
At this moment, the flashing runes, marks, and patterns on the Bead of Life and Death spun rapidly, like a black hole vortex, unleashing a massive devouring force that engulfed Luo Xiu's consciousness.
Luo Xiu felt as if he was in a vast starry sky, with the Milky Way ahead. The waves were turbulent, and the dots of light were like stars, floating in the Milky Way, sinking and floating.
Slowly reaching out, Luo Xiu touched one of the shining stars.
Boom!
He saw a strange world, where heaven and earth were desolate, and countless lives began to emerge. After endless years, he walked towards death, from birth to death, from death to life, like reincarnation, endless.
Fire is the source of life and also the source of destruction. Bathing in fire for rebirth is for life, burning the sky and boiling the earth is for death!
I don't know how long it has been, but when Luo Xiu's consciousness regained consciousness, he suddenly opened his eyes.
He felt as if he had understood the true meaning of the law of life and death!
The past experiences in the Pearl of Life and Death seem like countless years have passed, but in reality, they are still stuck in that moment.
Waves of scorching hot breath were constantly absorbed into his body, and Luo Xiu slowly looked up, facing Lu Mengyao's four eyes.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, a flame suddenly rose from Luo Xiu's body, burning all his clothes, but this flame did not cause any harm to his body.
Moreover, flames also landed on Lu Mengyao's body, burning her clothes and skirts in an instant.
"Ah!..." Lu Mengyao let out a scream, as if frightened, and kicked Luo Xiu in the chest.
holy crap
Luo Xiu suddenly felt like he was struck by lightning and flew backwards in an instant, bleeding from the corner of his mouth.
Immediately afterwards, Luo Xiu was completely stunned.
Her fair and jade like skin, with undulating curves and a spring glow, made Luo Xiuzhi feel shortness of breath and dryness in his mouth and tongue.
"Don't look!" Lu Mengyao's pretty face turned red, both shy and angry. Her icy and pure body was actually exposed by her own students. How could this make her feel embarrassed?
Naked, not just the clothes on the two of them, flames spread and burned the bed to ashes.
"Turn your head!" Lu Mengyao bit her lips, her voice slightly cold.
Luo Xiu didn't dare to say much and quickly turned around to avoid offending Teacher Lu.
This is Lu Mengyao's room, and there are naturally clothes to change. Luo Xiu could hear her changing clothes, and the scene he had just seen involuntarily came to mind, with his heart beating incessantly.
After changing her clothes, Lu Mengyao couldn't help but twitch twice when she saw Luo Xiu's naked back.
"Do you not have any spare clothes to change in your storage wrist guard?"
All her clothes were burned, but the storage device on Luo Xiu's left wrist was not damaged, which is why she asked this question.
"This... really not." Luo Xiu was quite helpless and embarrassed. The storage wrist guard was obtained by killing Chen Hu, and there were no spare clothes inside.
"You put this on first."
Luo Xiu only heard a crash and a bedsheet fell on him.
After a moment, Luo Xiu, who was wrapped in bed sheets, turned around and saw Lu Mengyao changing into a red dress. Her black hair flowed down like a waterfall, and her face was exquisite and beautiful, with a slight blush that was suffocating.
Lu Mengyao also looked at Luo Xiu, feeling both puzzled and shocked. Just as she was getting dressed earlier, she clearly felt a lot more comfortable in her heart meridian. Can it be said that Luo Xiu really cured her Fire Yang Jue meridian?
"Just now... I'm sorry," Lu Mengyao suddenly spoke, breaking the silence between the two.
Luo Xiu naturally knew that she was talking about kicking himself. Lu Mengyao was a martial artist in the Qi Sea realm, but fortunately that kick did not contain true Qi. Otherwise, Luo Xiu would probably have been unable to get up at this moment.
"It's okay," Luo Xiu shook his head.
At this moment, he gazed at the left chest and heart vein of Lu Mengyao, and the veins of life appeared clearly.
Sensing Luo Xiu's gaze, Lu Mengyao's body trembled slightly and couldn't help but ask, "What happened to the flames just now? My body..."
She really wanted to know if her Fire Yang Jue Mai could really be cured. She had no expectations and couldn't help but look forward to it again.
However, Luo Xiu suddenly shook his head and said, "I just absorbed some of the flame power from your heart meridian, Teacher Lu. However, probably due to my low cultivation level, I only absorbed a part of it and did not completely solve your illness, Teacher Lu."
Upon hearing these words, Lu Mengyao's expression suddenly darkened. However, at this moment, Luo Xiu said again, "However, if I absorb it a few more times, I probably can completely solve your illness, Teacher Lu."
"Really?" Lu Mengyao became excited again in an instant.
Luo Xiu nodded and said, "I'm afraid I won't be able to do it today. My cultivation level is too low. I absorbed some flames just now and they have reached their limit, which is why they escaped."
Upon hearing Luo Xiu's words, Lu Mengyao couldn't help but recall the scene where the flames had burned the clothes of the two and they were facing each other naked.
However, compared to these, what surprised Lu Mengyao even more was how Luo Xiu did it? Can he actually absorb the power of flames in the Fire Yang Jue Mai?
She has an extraordinary identity and a wide range of knowledge. At the age of fifteen, she reached the state of Qi Sea. If it weren't for the troubles of the fire yang meridian, she would have been able to step into the innate realm long ago.
But the Fire Yang Jue meridian, which made Lian Shen Wu Zong feel helpless, could be solved by Luo Xiu, a body refining martial artist. Without experiencing it firsthand, she would not have believed that all of this was true.
"Teacher Lu, I've always been like this..." Luo Xiu said awkwardly.
Looking at the embarrassed young man sitting on the ground, wrapped in bed sheets, Lu Mengyao couldn't help but chuckle for some reason.
However, when she thought of the embarrassing scene just now, the teacher's address made her feel a bit harsh.
"Wait for me here, I'll go buy you new clothes."
As she spoke, Lu Mengyao got up and pushed open the door, leaving only Luo Xiu in a daze inside. She couldn't understand why Teacher Lu suddenly smiled just now.
"Teacher Lu is beautiful, has a good figure, and looks even better when he smiles," Luo Xiu said to himself.
Wrapped in the sheets and sitting cross legged on the ground, Luo Xiu suppressed his thoughts and regained calmness.
He closed his eyes and sensed the condition inside his body. It didn't matter at first glance, and he was completely stunned.
The internal Qi is unprecedentedly rich and pure, and the Qi and blood have condensed to the extreme, directly crossing the stage of eight levels of refining blood and stepping into the level of nine levels of refining marrow!
"Have I reached the ninth level of body refining?"
Luo Xiu was greatly surprised, obviously because he had swallowed and absorbed the power of the flames.
Palm spread out, internal energy condensed, and a crimson flame emerged in the palm. The scorching breath caused ripples and ripples in the nearby air.
"Fire attribute internal qi?" Luo Xiu was pleasantly surprised again.
As far as he knows, both the internal qi cultivated by the cultivator and the true qi cultivated by the Qi Sea cultivator do not possess any attributes.
Only by stepping into the realm of innate martial arts can one awaken the power of attributes such as water and fire, wood and soil, wind and thunder, and so on.
And he, clearly still in the stage of refining martial arts disciples, has already developed attribute power.
In my mind, I couldn't help but recall my insights and experiences in the life and death pearl. The red flame that appeared in my palm suddenly changed, sometimes into a white flame containing a majestic breath of life, and sometimes into a gloomy black flame with a deadly aura.
The fire of life, the fire of death
These are the two extremes of fire attributes.
At the same time, Luo Xiu sensed a hot breath spreading from the position of his lower abdomen dantian. However, due to the excessive internal energy, the excess internal energy converged to the position of the dantian on its own, including the power of flames that had not yet been refined from Lu Mengyao.
"My body is approaching saturation, but as long as I fully refine the power of the flames accumulated in the elixir field, I can continue to absorb it, and my cultivation will definitely advance by leaps and bounds!"
Luo Xiu's eyes lit up and he couldn't help but look forward to it. For him, Teacher Lu's illness was even more effective than taking pills for cultivation!
Not long after, Lu Mengyao bought clothes from outside and came back. A tight black military uniform was very comfortable to wear, and she carried the Shadow Sword behind her back. Although her face was still slightly immature, she had a fierce and sharp aura of heroism.
"Teacher Lu, I will come back to help you treat your illness in seven days." After putting on his clothes, Luo Xiu planned to say goodbye.
Lu Mengyao embroidered her eyebrows and furrowed her eyelashes, staring at Luo Xiu. "My name is Lu Mengyao, I'm 21 years old this year, not much older than you."
Luo Xiu was slightly taken aback, looked at Lu Mengyao in surprise, and thought to himself, "What does her name and age mean when she tells me?"?
Blinking his eyes, Luo Xiu cautiously said, "Then I'll call you from now on... Sister Lu? Sister Mengyao?"
"Whatever, you're not allowed to call me teacher again in the future." For some special reason, when Lu Mengyao heard Luo Xiu call her teacher, she would feel harsh.
Dressed in a tight black military uniform and wearing a bamboo hat to cover his face, Luo Xiu once again arrived at the Baqi Mountain stronghold.
With the Shadow Sword and Thunderbolt Sword technique, Luo Xiu came to Mount Baqi this time to enhance his strength.
The transformation of mentality and state of mind made Luo Xiu clear that in order to become a martial arts powerhouse, there must be no slackness in cultivation, because martial arts cultivation is like sailing against the current.
Most of the first level demon beasts in Baqi Mountain are rare, and most of them are ordinary and medium level. With Luo Xiu's strength, there won't be much danger if there are no accidents.
For other cultivators, encountering a second level monster on Mount Baqi was undoubtedly a nightmare, but Luo Xiu was not afraid. The battle he fought to kill Chen Hu confirmed that he had the strength to compete head-on with ordinary Qi Sea warriors.
Of course, this experience mainly focuses on honing swordsmanship. If the Thunderbolt Sword Technique can be cultivated to a great level, its power can definitely sweep most third grade martial arts!
Without realizing it, Luo Xiu had been honing his swordsmanship in the Eight Qi Mountains for a month.
"Buzz!"
The air trembled, ripples rippled, and a black sword was like a flowing light, as fast as lightning, piercing into the head of a Fire Cloud Leopard and killing with one sword.
"Qiang!" The Shadow Sword was sheathed, and a smile appeared at the corner of Luo Xiu's mouth. With these days of hard practice in swordsmanship, the effect was extraordinary, and he had reached the pinnacle of wielding the sword like lightning.
Not only that, his Dragon Tiger Fist and Inch Step have undergone life and death trials, and have also surpassed Da Cheng, reaching a state of perfection where he is truly extraordinary!
However, even the perfect Dragon and Tiger Fist is not as powerful as Dacheng's Thunderbolt Sword Technique, because sword weapons themselves have extremely strong attack power.
He only needs one sword to kill a level one monster now. Even if he encounters an ordinary level two monster, he can still kill it without using the ability to damage his life vein and entangle it. However, if it is a more powerful level two monster, he is not an opponent and can only escape with his clever step by step body technique.
There are also nine levels of the Qi Sea realm, and Luo Xiu estimated that his current strength is roughly equivalent to between the first and third levels of the Qi Sea.
In addition to the progress in swordsmanship, every seven days, Luo Xiu also returns to Qingyun City to absorb the flame power from Lu Mengyao's heart meridian. His internal Qi cultivation has reached the peak of nine levels of body refining, and he is not far from breaking through the Qi Sea realm.
