Chapter 97 The Journey

On February 21, 2013, on April 4, 2013, after experiencing the extremely lively "World Martial Fighting Meeting", the Tianxia City was still full of traffic and bustling. Most of the audience and the contestants did not leave the capital of the Eastern Continent immediately, but chose to stay and visit the "Tianxia City".

Of course, the "World Martial Arts Arena" is also the place where everyone visits the most. The martial arts arena that should have been idle is now crowded. The game company sets them into countless small competition venues. As long as the players pay 100 gold coins, they can compete with others in a friendly match. The winning and losing rules are compared with the competition regulations implemented during the "World Martial Arts Club". Players who do not want to participate in the competition can only pay 50 gold coins to watch the game all day. The first thing I saw when I saw this news is that the game company is too good at making money.

One hundred and nine fighting arenas can be divided into nearly 10,000 small competition venues and 100 large competition venues. The former can earn 200 gold coins each time, while the latter can earn 5,000 gold coins. Even if only half of the competition venues are used, each venue is only used 5 times a day. Then, the game company can earn (200; 5,000 + 100; 5,000); 5=7.5 million gold coins, and the real world can earn about 22.5 million gold coins a day, which is about 1.8 million yuan. This is a number that makes me crazy if I think about it.

And in fact, today's venue usage alone can be described as "supply and demand", because the game company immediately launched the "Tianxia Record List". As long as you participate in the "Tianxia Martial Arts Arena", you can get points, win 2 points, draw 1 point, and fail without scores. At the same time, according to the score level and the relevant situation of the game, the system will classify the players' levels into four levels: heaven, earth, Xuan, and Huang.

Of course, if you want to participate in this kind of competition, you must abide by certain rules. For example, the two people who have just passed the competition can only compete again after one month, otherwise the two people's competition will not be achieved in any competition; players with low levels can challenge players with high levels. Once the challenge is successful or a draw is tied, low-level players can directly advance to the higher level. Of course, players with higher levels can refuse the challenge, but they cannot actively challenge players with low level... Under the publicity of the game company, the "World Record List" has become a reflection of the true strength in the eyes of everyone. So far, some people have played more than ten games and obtained tens of results. Of course, everyone's levels are the same, all of them are yellow-level rookies. Faced with the crazy people, I don't understand why, is the PK between players so attractive?

Maybe it’s a different concept of life or a different life situation. As a professional player, the first thing I consider is how to make as much money as possible during the game. Although I will also enjoy everything in the game, I am definitely not as crazy as other players. After all, I can face the excitement of the game calmly.

When I opened the "Player Log", I found that there had been a big change in the game in just one day. What impressed me the most was the change in the rankings. In addition to the additional "World Records", the other three rankings "Celebrity Ranking", "Comprehensive Ability Ranking" and "Weapon Ranking" have all undergone great changes.

First of all, the rankings that were originally indistinguishable from the East and the West have now become two clearly divided rankings. The rankings of the East and the West are better, while the Western continents are full of English letters and there are no transliterations. However, I still found a few familiar names in it. It seems that I have not forgotten the English thing!

Secondly, the three rankings of the Eastern Continent that I am familiar with have changed a lot. Take the "Weapon Ranking" for example. In addition to the top four items, the top four of our "World Martial Fighting Club", now only the "Dragon Teeth" that circulates from me, the "Fire Dragon Armor" in my hand, the "Currified Xuanyuan Sword", the "Golden Sword" and the "Dragon Slaying Dagger" I got last time. It can be said that more than half of them are in my hands. If I hadn't hidden my identity for a long time, I would have been beaten to death by those crazy weapons enthusiasts! However, "Fire Dragon Armor" and "Golden Sword" boldly marked their names because they have long been exposed, and even so, many people were jealous.

Looking at the "Comprehensive Ability Ranking", this time, the feature of name hiding was eliminated, and I was ranked first, the second one was "Blood Drinking the World", the next one was "Jade Girl Sword", "A Arrow in the World", "Quick Sword and One Sword" and other players who performed outstandingly in the "World Martial Fighting Meeting", and of course, there are several players who have not participated in the competition.

As for the final "Celebrity Ranking", it is similar to "Comprehensive Ability Ranking". The difference is that there are more players who are mainly non-combat professions, and they are all outstanding characters in all aspects.

After roughly looking at these three rankings, I sighed in my heart. The change in just one day was so great. It seems that it really corresponds to the idiom "changing things in the world". I returned to "Lao Yuanzi", "High Sword", "Pink Clothes" and "Ba Gun" left yesterday, and now only the ones that have agreed with me are left in the store.

We had already agreed yesterday. After completing the relevant procedures later, the veteran will enter the game as a player and cooperate with me to open an inn. The address is "Fuxi City". The medium-sized shops there are the best among the three medium-sized shops, both in the store themselves and in the geographical location.

When we came to the store after a few hours of traveling, we carefully studied inside and outside the store, and finally said happily: "It's very good, just a little decoration. I think the store can open in just two days."

I smiled slightly and said, "As long as you are satisfied!" The next step is to sign various contracts and handle relevant procedures. In this way, this inn called "Jiangnanchun" became an opportunity for us to cooperate, and with my joint efforts, it became a large-scale comprehensive inn with the largest number of "Fuxi City". It can be said that it is full of wealth. Of course, this is all a later story. The current "Jiangnanchun" can only be described as dilapidated.

After breaking up, I took Xiaobai and Baihu back to Pangu City and handed Zhang San some gold equipment such as the "Blood Emperor Whip" to Zhang San for auction, which made Zhang San, who had been salivating for a long time, almost took it with saliva.

After all these equipment was processed, I began to "occupy the land". For four days, I finally put the remaining four small stores in my name; similarly, I also proved that it was difficult to learn the book "Ice and Snow Storm" in these four days, because I could not even practice the most basic "ice magic power". It seems that I can only find a way to find a way to the inner alchemy of "Ice and Fire" or "Ice and Fire Two-Headed Wolf".

No matter which one is, I have to face the monster-level monster-level monster "Ice and Fire Two-Headed Wolf". I know that I am definitely not its opponent in front of the battle. I think the trap will not work for the monster at all. Even my most powerful weapon "formula" now may be difficult to resist the monster's attack. Therefore, the best way is to secretly take away the "Ice and Fire".

For this reason, I thought about it for a long time and finally decided on a relatively safe method.

On the afternoon of March 9, 2018, the second year of the world, I rode Xiaobai to the "Medicine God Valley" outside "Shennong City". Of course, the position in my arms was occupied by the mini-shaped white tiger. The three of us stopped at the entrance of the valley and asked Xiaobai and the white tiger to be alert. I took out countless "Zhurong Battle Souls" and "Gonggong Battle Souls" from the "Qiankun Ring". These are all my gains in recent days.

First of all, I set up a large "** array" around the entrance of the valley to ensure that people outside the valley cannot see the valley, and monsters in the valley cannot see the exit. Of course, I, who know the truth, can easily enter and exit the "Medicine God Valley".

Then, I set up the "Nine-Turn Yin-Yang Formation" and the "Formation Bagua Formation" and the most powerful "Dragon Trap" inside, which is of course the most expensive "soul bead". After these four formations were arranged, I only had three yellow-level "Gonggong Fighting Souls", two Xuan-level and four yellow-level "Zhurong Fighting Souls", which can be said to have lost everything.

After setting up the formation, I rode Xiaobai to the valley and looked for the hot spring mentioned by "Quick Sword One Knife", because "ice and fire" grew next to a hot spring. However, after searching for a long time, I didn't see any hot springs. I saw a lot of herbs, but most of them were ordinary goods. The few good herbs I occasionally saw were automatically ignored by me, who was eager to find hot springs.

Thinking about it now, using the time I just searched for hot springs to collect some herbs, I'm afraid it's a good harvest. After a few minutes, I finally saw a small wood, which looked very much like a "quick sword".

I asked Xiaobai to lower the height and arrived at the location of a hot spring in less than a minute. And it was not just a hot spring, but what appeared in my eyes was densely packed with hot springs, with at least hundreds of them, some of them were large and some were small, but only the largest hot springs grew on the side of the largest one, and they didn't look like herbs, but they looked like weeds that I usually see on the roadside.

I asked Xiaobai to slowly fly to the hot spring and use the "difficult medicine technique". After a long time, I realized that these rural weeds were the "icing and fire" I was looking for. At the same time, I also saw another goal of my trip to the "Medicine God Valley" - the two-headed wolf. This guy actually hid in the hot spring. If we were not in the air, but on the ground, we would be easily hurt by this "iceing and fire two-headed wolf". The wolf was cunning and insulting, and it was fully reflected here.

Without my command, Xiaobai felt the murderous aura before the "Ice and Fire Two-Headed Wolf" came out of the water, so when the "Ice and Fire Two-Headed Wolf" had just revealed a head, it had quickly taken off the air and crossed nearly ten meters of space. However, the "Ice and Fire Two-Headed Wolf" was not as easy to deal with as we imagined. The two wolf heads that had just emerged from the water released fire and ice spells, one left and one right, and they were all advanced spells.

Fire chain, fire-type advanced spells, one fire ring after another flew towards Xiaobai and me in the air, and it almost shot on Xiaobai several times. If Xiaobai hadn't been flexible in his body, we would have become the delicious food in the mouth of "ice and fire two-headed wolf" tonight.

It was not until Xiaobai rose to a height of 100 meters that he had a magic range of "Ice and Fire Two-Headed Wolf". Only then did I have room for counterattack. I drew out a mysterious-level "Fire Dragon Arrow", but immediately thought that for "Fire", our opponent "Ice and Fire Two-Headed Wolf" could be said to be his ancestor, and it had no effect on using "Fire Dragon Arrow" to deal with it.

The same is true for the "Frost Arrow" made of "Gonggong War Soul" that I just gave to me. What's more, if I don't have ice-type mana, I can't use the true level of the "Frost Arrow" at all if I only inject internal energy, and it is a completely wasteful measure. In the end, I chose the "alloy arrow" and aimed at the "Ice and Fire Two-Headed Wolf" below to shoot out in the form of "Ten Thousand Arrows at One Thousand Arrows". In a short while, a hundred long arrows pierced at the "Ice and Fire Two-Headed Wolf" who were yelling at us on the ground. Even though the "Ice and Fire Two-Headed Wolf" had an outrageous defense ability, it was still inevitable to be injured.

Tebi was one of the "alloy arrows" shot into the "Ice and Fire Double-Headed Wolf" that released ice-type mana, which made the "Ice and Fire Double-Headed Wolf" extremely furious. The two wolf heads spewed out an energy ball with a fist at the same time. Although the speed was not fast and it looked a little shaky, it flew towards us very firmly.

Of course I know that these two things are not easy to mess with. They are definitely several times more powerful than the two advanced spells before, because you can tell just by looking at their colors. The fire-type energy ball has approached white, while the ice-type energy ball has reached a transparent state. You can imagine how much energy it contains.

I asked Xiaobai to take off the air and draw out a "Fire Dragon Arrow" and aimed at the ice-type energy ball and shoot it hard. The collision between the powerful fire energy and the ice-type energy did not appear as big explosion as I imagined. As a result, after my "Fire Dragon Arrow" was completely scrapped, the remaining ice-type energy balls were still floating towards us.

I was shocked in my heart. What is this? It is so powerful. The fire energy contained in my "Fire Dragon Arrow" does not work for it, and it has no change in appearance. Thinking about the previous collision between the two compromising energies, there was no explosion. I knew that compared to that energy ball, the fire energy contained in the "Fire Dragon Arrow" was too low, like a torch thrown into a river.

I no longer waste arrows and urged Xiaobai to run towards the valley entrance.

When we saw our escape, the "ice and fire two-headed wolf" roared repeatedly. If you listen carefully, you can also find that the screams of the two wolf heads are different. The sounds of the fire-attributed wolf heads are vigorous, while the ice-attributed ones seem a bit clear and clear. The two roars, one high and one low, make people sound quite interesting.

At the same time as the scream sounded, the "Ice and Fire Two-Headed Wolf" withdrew the two energy balls. This discovery surprised me. Could it be that those two things were actually its inner alchemy? And it was not one of them I imagined. If I eat them at the same time, would there be a risk of exploding the body and dying? Even if they belong to the same body.

For a moment, I fell into thinking until Xiaobai's crisp eagle cry woke me up. It turned out that I had arrived at the entrance of the valley without realizing it. Looking down from the air, there was no change in the entrance of the "Medicine God Valley". Of course, the same is true for the "Ice and Fire Two-Headed Wolf". For players outside the valley, there was a hazy white mist.

I stopped at an altitude of about 100 meters above the valley entrance. The "Ice and Fire Two-Headed Wolf" quickly chased the valley entrance and was about to send out the inner pill to me, but suddenly I found that there was a vast white mist everywhere where I was, up, down, left and right, in addition to the white mist, there was still fog.

I saw this in the air and immediately directed Xiaobai to fly quickly to the hot spring group. I had to seize the opportunity to collect "ice and fire", otherwise I could not guarantee whether the "ice and fire two-headed wolf" could not really break out of the formation.

Flying halfway, I heard two different wolf roars, one high and one low, and the strong explosion after the spell was cast. I knew that the "ice and fire two-headed wolf" was struggling to break through. I became anxious and secretly prayed in my heart that this guy would not break out of the formation so quickly.

Finally, I arrived at the largest hot spring. Before Xiaobai could completely land, I jumped off the eagle's back, took out the golden medicine hoe and medicine basket, and quickly collected the "ice and fire". Because I didn't know how much it would be effective, I quickly filled several medicine baskets with the principle of as much as possible. Until the fifth time when I filled the medicine basket, I heard the roars getting closer and closer, and knew that this guy had already created a formation. I quickly put away the guy and jumped on Xiaobai; Xiaobai, who was already ready to take off, immediately flapped his huge wings and flew to the sky, leaving only the "ice and fire double-headed wolf" roaring underneath, and the woods outside the hot spring became the place where it vented its anger.

I asked Xiaobai to fly outside and return to the entrance of the "Medicine God Valley" and checked his formation. I found that only the third formation outside of the fourth formation was broken, and the most powerful "Dragon Trap" had no effect this time. No wonder the "Ice and Fire Two-Headed Wolf" could come back so quickly.

I carefully collected the remaining "soul beads", and felt very regretful. Just to trap the "Ice and Fire Two-Headed Wolf", I lost more than 70 mysterious "soul beads" and more than 200 yellow "soul beads". Fortunately, the 108 mysterious "Zhurong Battle Souls" of the "Dragon Trap" were not lost, which is also a comfort to me.

After packing up, I quickly returned to "Shennong City" and then returned to "Pangu City" by carriage.

Pangu City, Longhuxuan, and the alchemy room on the third floor.

I sat there alone thinking hard about how to maximize the dual-attribute effect of "ice and fire". Eating directly is definitely not possible. It is not that eating directly has no effect, but that Chinese herbal medicines or other medicinal materials can only be effective after being refined, otherwise it will play a role of one or two at most. Therefore, this method is simply not advisable.

If you don't take it directly, you can only refine medicine. But if you refine medicine, the problem arises. I don't know how to refine it or what other auxiliary medicinal materials are needed. Moreover, although the "ice and fire" in the Five Medicines Basket seems to be a lot, if used as an experiment, it is pitifully rare. Once they are used up, I don't think I can easily get the "ice and fire" from the "ice and fire double-headed wolf" unless it is killed.

To be honest, I don’t have any plans to kill the “Ice and Fire Two-Headed Wolf” in my heart. After all, I also killed the “Asian Qinglong” at the monster level before. Although the battle situation was a bit dangerous, the power of the “Dragon Trap” can be imagined. I had thought before that if the “Ice and Fire Two-Headed Wolf” stepped into the “Dragon Trap”, I would have fought with it.

Unfortunately, the "Ice and Fire Two-Headed Wolf" has destroyed the triple formation one after another, and is lucky enough not to trigger the innermost "Dragon Trap". This only means that its luck is too good. Now, if I still want to use the "Dragon Trap" to trap the "Ice and Fire Two-Headed Wolf", I guess the possibility of success is not too great. The monsters in the game also have certain logical judgment ability, so the same method is difficult to work again, especially this experience has left an absolutely indelible memory for the "Ice and Fire Two-Headed Wolf"!

After thinking for a long time, I finally made up my mind to start refining medicine.

The properties of "ice and fire" have become more balanced, so the auxiliary medicinal materials I added are taken into account both the cold and the heat of nature, so "snow lotus" and "scrophularia" have become my final choices.

I carefully heated the "Medical King Cauldron" slowly with low heat. Looking at the water vapor slowly emitting due to the rising temperature, I felt extremely nervous. Three hours passed, and the water vapor became thicker and thicker. Finally, I suddenly pulled inward. The water vapor filled with the fragrance of medicine in the alchemy room was concentrated in the "Medical King Cauldron". The fast process almost made me wonder if my eyes were wrong.

I quickly removed the flames. Without waiting for the "Medicine King Cauldron" to completely cool down, I carefully opened the cover of the tripod and stared at the bottom of the "Medicine King Cauldron" that was still foggy. After a few seconds, I finally saw a pill and some black powder.

I was overjoyed and quickly checked the properties of this pill: fire-type mana + 3, ice-type mana + 2, internal power + 1. My current mood can only be described as "ecstasy". Even though the amount of this pill just named "Ice and Fire Double Heaven" by me is indeed a little less increased, as long as it can increase the "Fire Mana" and "Ice Mana", it is already my biggest gain.

It doesn’t matter if the amount is small. The former is just used more in the future. The latter refers to the method of "ice mana" in "Ice Storm" to quickly increase the amount of mana. Now what is left is just to increase the value of my four powers, which is something that can be done as long as you spend time.
Chapter completed!
