Chapter 1426

"Fire Essence Flame Crystal?"

Cai Zhuoxia's face lit up when she heard this. "Fellow Daoist Xiao doesn't even know what a Fire Essence Flame Crystal is?

How do you know where to find such a precious spirit stone? "

"Haha, the name I know isn't Fire Essence Flame Crystal, but Fire Essence. Only after hearing Fellow Daoist Cai's description did I know that it was Fire Essence Flame Crystal!" Xiao Hua said.

"Eh?

In that case, the place Fellow Daoist Xiao knows … I'm afraid it's extremely hidden? "

"Exactly …" Xiao Hua didn't hide anything and roughly described the location of that place.

Cai Zhuoxia frowned and shook her head. "The place Fellow Daoist Xiao mentioned … seems to be Flame Forest Swamp!

But … Flame Forest Swamp doesn't have a place like the one Fellow Daoist described, and it doesn't have the name Fellow Daoist mentioned! "

Xiao Hua smiled. "Of course, even the name of the Fire Essence Flame Crystal is different, so the location is naturally different!

However, since Fellow Daoist Cai doesn't want to go, then just tell I the location of Flame Forest Swamp in detail. When I get the Fire Essence Flame Crystal, I'll go to Luyang's Cai Family to find Fellow Daoist, and then we'll go to Xunyan School together! "

"Then … I'll have to trouble Fellow Daoist Xiao!"

Cai Zhuoxia said embarrassedly. "I have some urgent matters to attend to, so I can only … let Fellow Daoist Xiao go alone!"

"No matter, I also want to see Fairy Hong Xia. When I return from Flame Forest Swamp, I'll go pay a visit to Sister Hong Xia!" Xiao Hua smiled.

"En, then I and my sister will wait for you at home!"

Cai Zhuoxia cupped her hands and smiled, clearly explaining the location of the Flame Forest Marsh and how to get there. After Xiao Hua memorized it, she reminded him, "Fellow Daoist Xiao, the Flame Forest Marsh is no small matter. It's a place even more dangerous than the Sobbing Meng Mountains. We haven't even entered the Sobbing Meng Mountains, and we've only been in the periphery, yet we've already encountered a lot of trouble. There's no need to even mention the Flame Forest Marsh.

Xiao Hua smiled bitterly. "But if we don't go, where will we get the Fire Essence Flame Crystal?"

"If we can't get it … then we can't get it. Let's get the Foundation Breathing Pill first!"

"I am still somewhat different from Fellow Daoist Cai. Fellow Daoist Cai has his family's cultivation method to practice, but I … don't have any cultivation method!"

Xiao Hua smiled bitterly: "According to that Zhuo Qingyuan's meaning, if we have enough Fire Essence Flame Crystals, the Xunyan Church will give I a pleasant surprise. To I, what is a pleasant surprise?

That was a cultivation method. Even if it was a sixth or seventh layer Aura Refining cultivation method, it wouldn't be much to Xunyan School, but I was precisely lacking it!

This Flame Forest Swamp … I must go and take a look! "

Cai Zhuoxia was speechless. She sighed and cupped her hands. "Then … I wish Fellow Daoist Xiao a smooth trip. I await Fellow Daoist Xiao's arrival in Luyang!"

"Alright, Fellow Daoist Cai, farewell!"

Xiao Hua cupped his hands and bid farewell to Cai Zhuoxia, then flew up into the air. He activated the Flight Talisman and flew in the direction of the Flame Forest Swamp …

However, just as Xiao Hua flew up, he saw Cai Zhuoxia hesitating behind him. She immediately urged her magic power to chase after him and shouted, "Fellow Daoist Xiao …"

"Eh?

Fellow Daoist Cai … is there anything else? "

Xiao Hua had already flown quite far in an instant. When he heard Cai Zhuoxia's shout, he was very flabbergasted and stopped. He looked at the smile on Cai Zhuoxia's face and asked in amazement.

"Hehe, Fellow Daoist Xiao has accompanied I to two places. This Flame Forest Swamp is the first time Fellow Daoist Xiao has mentioned going. I … how can I refuse Fellow Daoist's kind intentions?

I will risk my life to accompany Fellow Daoist this once! "

Xiao Hua was overjoyed when he heard this. He laughed and said, "We're only going to look for Fire Essence Flame Crystals. How could we be risking our lives?

Fellow Daoist Cai said that I was scared in my heart! "

"Hehe, let's go, Fellow Daoist Xiao!" Cai Zhuoxia pursed her lips and smiled. She led Xiao Hua and flew in another direction!

"Fellow Daoist Cai … isn't this direction wrong?" Xiao Hua was somewhat confused.

Cai Zhuoxia shook her head and said, "The direction I told Fellow Daoist Xiao before is to fly directly. I'm afraid it'll take more than two months. It's really a delay.

The closest city to here is Yanyuan City. There's a teleportation formation there that directly passes through Xihuang Town. Xihuang Town is only ten days away from Flame Forest Swamp. I also need ten days to reach Yanyuan City. I also need to go to Yanyuan City to return to Luyang. This calculation can be considered convenient. Why don't I accompany Fellow Daoist Xiao to Flame Forest Swamp? After returning from Flame Forest Swamp, it won't be too late for I to return to Luyang! "

"Aiyo ~" Xiao Hua scratched his head and said very awkwardly, "Many thanks for Fellow Daoist Cai's guidance. I … haven't used a teleportation formation yet, so … I didn't even think in that direction!

If it weren't for Fellow Daoist Cai, I would have to fly these two months! "

"I was also careless!"

Cai Zhuoxia covered her mouth and said, "When Fellow Daoist Xiao was asking for directions, he also didn't hesitate to tell me the direct route. If I hadn't suddenly thought of it before flying, I would have really troubled Fellow Daoist Xiao!"

With that, Cai Zhuoxia led Xiao Hua in the direction of Yanyuan City. They flew for more than ten days. During this time, Xiao Hua and Cai Zhuoxia were not in a hurry. During the day, they flew slowly with the speed of a fifth level qi refining cultivator. At night, Xiao Hua was still diligently cultivating.

Xiao Hua obtained a lot of medicinal pills from Cheng Ming and Le Chongqi. In these ten days, he consumed a lot of them. Cai Zhuoxia saw Xiao Hua's cultivation increase little by little. When they arrived near Yanyuan City, Cai Zhuoxia couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Fellow Daoist Xiao … I want to ask … what kind of cultivation technique is Fellow Daoist cultivating?

It … actually allowed Fellow Daoist to increase his cultivation from the early fourth layer Qi Refining stage by quite a bit in just ten days! "

Then, she felt that it was inappropriate and explained, "Fellow Daoist Xiao, please don't think too much. I just feel that the growth of cultivation is based on the understanding of the realm. If you blindly focus on increasing your magic power, I'm afraid you're neglecting the fundamentals and seeking the end of the road. It's not good for Fellow Daoist Xiao's future development!"

Xiao Hua smiled and took out the cultivation technique, Raising Fire to the Heavens, and said: "This poor Daoist currently only has this cultivation technique, and only the first five layers. This poor Daoist can't see what's so special about this cultivation technique. Fellow Daoist Cai … If you're interested, there's no harm in picking it up and taking a look!"

"This …" Cai Zhuoxia didn't expect Xiao Hua to take out the cultivation technique so quickly. She was slightly stunned. After thinking for a moment, she took it and said, "No matter what, I have seen my Cai Clan's tenth layer Qi Refining cultivation technique. Let's compare it and see if there's anything strange about it!"

As she spoke, she generously flipped through the cultivation technique. In the time it took to smoke a cigarette, Cai Zhuoxia finished reading it and handed it back to Xiao Hua. Then, she lowered her head and pondered. After a while, she raised her head and said, "I won't hide it from Fellow Daoist Xiao. This cultivation technique … is very crude. Its profoundness is far inferior to my Cai Clan's cultivation technique."

"Hehe, this poor Daoist knows this. Even this cultivation technique was obtained with great difficulty by this poor Daoist!" Xiao Hua smiled bitterly and said, "Fellow Daoist Cai, just tell me if there's anything wrong with it!"

"It's not that there's anything wrong with it. This cultivation technique is very simple and ordinary. I can't see anything wrong with it!"

Cai Zhuoxia shook her head and said, "However, from the perspective of this cultivation technique, it's impossible for Fellow Daoist Xiao to improve so much every day!"

When Xiao Hua heard this, he didn't say anything.

"Fellow Daoist Xiao used such an inferior cultivation technique to advance so quickly … I'm afraid you've lost your steady path. If your magic power suddenly increases without reaching your realm, I'm afraid you'll suffer a backlash from your magic power, and your Dao foundation will be damaged!"

"Moreover … Senior … Li actually said that every layer of the twelfth layer of Qi Refining has a bottleneck. Ordinary cultivators are afraid of this bottleneck, but in the eyes of the true disciples of famous sects, this bottleneck is instead a process of checking and perfecting this layer of cultivation. It's absolutely impossible to force a breakthrough. The longer you stay at this bottleneck, the more perfected this layer of cultivation will be. Only when this bottleneck is naturally passed and you enter the next layer of cultivation will you be able to go further in the future!

Fellow Daoist Xiao, didn't you see Senior Li?

He was tempted by the temptation of entering the Foundation Building realm and only suppressed his cultivation at the peak of the Qi Refining realm?

If it weren't for the matter of Thousand Feet Peak, I'm afraid Senior Li would've stayed there for a long time, right? "

"Check?

Perfected?? "When Xiao Hua heard this explanation, his brows furrowed tightly.

"On the other hand, Fellow Daoist Xiao, from the first layer of Qi Refining to the early fourth layer of Qi Refining now, it seems … you broke through the bottleneck by force!

Especially the bottleneck from the third layer to the fourth layer of Qi Refining, you broke through it right in front of I!

To tell the truth, I was really shocked!

This kind of speed … even my younger sister can't catch up to you! "

Seeing Xiao Hua frown, Cai Zhuoxia hurriedly explained, "Fellow Daoist Xiao, please don't misunderstand. I'm not saying that Fellow Daoist Xiao's aptitude isn't good enough. Alas, it's also not that Fellow Daoist Xiao's aptitude isn't good enough."

Cai Zhuoxia didn't know how to explain and only said, "I also had the same idea as Fellow Daoist Xiao at that time. I only wanted to quickly advance my cultivation and practice my Cai Clan's cultivation technique to the highest level. But after hearing Senior Li's words, I realized that compared to a cultivation sect, not only cultivation techniques, even the details are far inferior. Therefore, seeing Fellow Daoist Xiao's cultivation advancing so quickly, I was afraid that Fellow Daoist Xiao would repeat I's mistakes, so I said it!"

After saying this, Cai Zhuoxia let out a long breath …

Xiao Hua scratched his head and cupped his hands, saying, "Thank you for your concern, Fellow Daoist Cai. To tell the truth, Fellow Daoist doesn't know about this, and I also don't know. I heard about the bottleneck from the previous Sect Master, but when I was in Shang Huaming, not to mention the bottleneck, even my cultivation didn't increase at all.

Now that I'm cultivating, between each layer … it seems like there aren't any bottlenecks. When I cultivate, it's just like normal!

As for what Senior Li said about understanding a lot during the bottleneck … I'm afraid that I will also have to be like Senior Li and use talismans to suppress it! "

"This …" How could Cai Zhuoxia believe him?

She could only say in a low voice, "The fourth layer of Qi Refining is the transition between the low and middle stages of Qi Refining. Fellow Daoist Xiao should be careful!"

Saying this, Cai Zhuoxia pointed with her finger and said, "About two hours in front of us is Yanyuan City. We'll rest in Yanyuan City for a day, see if there's anything like that, buy some yellow talismans and medicinal pills, and then go to the legendary place!"

"I'll listen to Fellow Daoist Cai's instructions!" Xiao Hua didn't explain and cupped his hands.
