C29 Self-combustion
C29 Self-combustion
Wu Di didn't want to kill anyone. The outcome of the battle had already been decided. He was ready to withdraw his attack, but who knew that Ling Qun would suddenly let out a long roar towards the sky. His entire body seemed to be burning with red flames.
"Wu Di, are you trying to kill your fellow disciple?" Yu Hong, who was waiting to watch a good show, thought Wu Di was going to kill her when she saw this scene. She couldn't help but shout.
Actually, it wasn't just Yu Hong who thought so. All the onlookers had the same thought. How could a perfectly fine person get angry? This could only prove that Wu Di was the one who did it.
Wu Di himself was also stunned. He had only used the Ascending Dragon in Sky, so there was no way that there would be a fire. Could it be that his technique was the perfect counter to Ling Qun?
However, no matter what the truth was, Wu Di decided to withdraw his attack so that he wouldn't kill Ling Qun.
"Ah!" Everyone saw the scene of his clothes being torn apart. Then, a shocking scene happened. Ling Qun's naked body was clearly on fire, but his skin did not show any signs of being burned. Not even a strand of his hair was burnt.
"What is going on?" Yu Hong was so scared that her voice was trembling.
Bai Ze could be considered calm at this time. He supported Yu Hong, who could not stand steadily. Every minute was showing his elegant demeanor of tender and tender.
Wu Di was also surprised, but he had the deepest feeling. As he was the one who used the move, the backlash caused Wu Di's mind to become unstable when Ling Qun resisted his move.
He felt a fire burning in his head, making him feel worse than death. If not for the clear stream flowing out of his spiritual altar and continuously extinguishing the ball of fire, Wu Di would have felt his head explode at any moment.
Everyone didn't look at Wu Di. Instead, they focused all their attention on Ling Qun. Suddenly, he opened his eyes. The flames on his body spread out and turned the transparent dragon-shaped shadow into a fire dragon.
The dragon struggled for a while and dissipated instantly. Along with the disappearance of the flames, Wu Di and Ling Qun fell to the ground and spat out a mouthful of blood.
Wu Di was fine. With the help of the small caldron, he would at most be a little dizzy. He would be much better after a short rest. However, Ling Qun was a little more serious. After glancing at Wu Di with his bright red eyes, he fainted on the ground.
At this time, a strange look flashed across Bai Ze's eyes, but he quickly came to Ling Qun's side. He took out a Healing Pill and stuffed it into Ling Qun's mouth. Then, he and Yu Hong helped Ling Qun back to the house.
No one spoke from the beginning until Wu Di wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with the back of his hand and stood up. Only then did Mu Lee and Zhao Tiehniu come over to ask for warmth.
"Alright," Wu Di said. Let's go back to the house first." Wu Di then walked towards his room.
Wait. When Zhao Tiehniu closed the door, Mu Lee came up to him and asked, "You spat out blood just now, don't you need to treat your injuries?"
"It's fine. It's just that your Qi is unstable." Wu Di poured himself a glass of water but did not drink it.
Even Zhao Tiehniu could tell that he was worried about something. However, he did not know if this guy was enlightened or not. He actually knew not to disturb Wu Di. Instead, he turned around and asked Mu Lee what had happened to Ling Qun who was on fire just now.
"Ask me who to ask, even if I know a lot of things. That doesn't mean I know everything." Mu Lee felt helpless.
Wu Di said, "I think the fire element in Ling Qun's body is very strong. Tell me. Is he a pure fire-attribute spiritual root?"
"I can't rule out this possibility, but I have a different opinion. Have you forgotten Ling Qun's identity? He was a member of the half-demon race. He had the bloodline of an ordinary demonic devil in his body, and demonic devils didn't have the so-called attribute of spiritual roots. I suspect... "
It is the inheritance of the demonic nature. " The two of them said in unison.
Mu Lee slapped the table and smiled. "A hero thinks the same thing. This can explain why he is in a state of self-combustion but does not hurt himself at all."
Wu Di nodded and said, "Compared to this, I am more certain that this Ling Qun is controlled by Bai Ze. It seems like this Bai Ze has a great background, or perhaps his motive for entering the Seven Star Sect is not simple."
"Why do you care so much? We have so many things to worry about every day. We don't have the mood to care about what Bai Ze wants to do. It has nothing to do with us even if we want to demolish the Seven Star Sect."
Mu Lee was a happy person. To him, making money was the best thing to do. The rest was just a daily seasoning. It was not worth mentioning.
After Wu Di sent the two of them away, he took out the cloth bag he got from Manager Chen and took out all the herbs inside. These herbs were not precious. In addition, the cloth bag that contained the herbs was a special cloth that could isolate weak spiritual energy. That was why Wu Di allowed them to carry the things without worrying about being discovered.
He piled all the medicinal herbs on the table and muttered to himself, "Gluttonous small caldron, I prepared a feast for you today. You said that you would spit out some good things for me, but it was not in vain. Haven't I been feeding you all this time? "
Wu Di's forehead burned, and then the Three-legged Small Caldron appeared in front of Wu Di. It only shook a little, and then it released a suction force, sucking all the medicinal ingredients on the table into the cauldron. It even spat out a circle inelegantly, as if someone had eaten their fill and burped.
By the time Wu Di wanted to say something, the Three-legged Small Caldron had already spun and quickly disappeared into Wu Di's forehead.
"It's like this again. I thought you would at least produce some pills for me this time." Wu Di said so, but he did not really complain. To him, he needed to train hard to break through. Although relying on pills to break through took a shortcut. But that's not necessarily a good thing.
He circulated his energy and regulated his breathing on the bed. After circulating the spirit energy in his body for twelve whole weeks, he finally opened his eyes. As an inner court disciple, he didn't have any cultivation techniques that he could learn, and he had to rely on himself to comprehend all of them. Besides that, he had to rely on his own talent to break through the obstructions by cooperating with the Mountain Protecting Sword Formation to cultivate some external techniques, and he had to rely on his own talent to break through the obstacles.
In order to participate in the inner sect disciple selection, the first thing he needed to do was to reach the Later Period of the Qi Cultivating Stage realm. Right now, his invincibility had stopped at the peak of the intermediate stage. This really made him a little anxious, and that was why he had been practicing crazily day and night without sleep.
Wu Di knew that there would be a chance to train for outer circle disciples in Seven Star Mountain in a month's time. This time, he would train at the top of the mountain in Seven Star Mountain.
The Mount Qi Yao was the most dangerous mountain among the seven mountains in Seven Star Mountain. There were countless Demonic Beast and magic beasts on it, and there were even some natural dangers. In short, every time ten disciples went to participate in the trial, one or two of them would die.
In fact, what worried Wu Di even more was that this kind of trial didn't care about life or death. In other words, no matter what grudges or entanglements there were, once they reached the Alkaid Peak, they wouldn't be affected by the rules of the Seven Star Sect. They could kill each other to silence them.
The higher the status of Cultivation Sect, the more intense the competition would be. Outer sect disciples like them could be recruited every year. If a few of them died during the trial, it wouldn't be a big deal.
This way, the ones left behind by the survival of the fittest would be worthy of being nurtured by the sect, and they would also be able to save on resources. However, the crueler the place was, the more it could temper a person's will, or even become an outstanding person.
Wu Di was very eager to train at the Alkaid Peak, because he heard that as long as he completed the mission of his sect, he could keep the extra spoils of war, such as spirit herbs and herbs for himself. If he was lucky, he could even fall into the secret realm. It was said that there were many natural treasures in the secret realm.
When Wu Di woke up from his meditation, he felt full of energy. His entire body had almost reached its peak state.
When he went out, he found that it was already past dinner time. He didn't feel too hungry, so he walked towards Back Hill with big strides.
In the Back Hill of Fuyao Peak, apart from the cold bamboo forest, there was also a forest. Wu Di usually cultivated near the cold pond. There were strange rocks here. Even if he made some noise inside, he wouldn't attract any onlookers.
