Chapter 181, Hot Bath
Chapter 181, Hot Bath
The hot spring pool was not what Baili Changfeng and his two disciples had imagined. In their opinion, since it was a place for sunbathing, the hot spring pool must be very big. However, the hot spring pool in front of them was pitifully small, like a wellhead.
Xia Xue was a little skeptical: "Master, is this really a hot spring bath?"
Baili Changfeng nodded. The temperature here was the highest in Tang Valley. If they hadn't brought the Polar Cold Marrow Jade with them, they wouldn't have dared to get close. Moreover, there was no demonic energy around.
"GuluGulu~"
Looking at the hot spring that was surging and boiling like magma, Xia Yang and Xia Xue felt their scalps tingling. If they fell into it, they would probably be melted instantly.
Xia Xue swallowed nervously, looked at Baili Changfeng, and asked uncertainly: "Master, do you really want to put Senior Hua in the hot spring bath? Can Senior Hua bear it?"
Baili Changfeng looked at Hua Changxi, whose eyes were tightly closed. "Senior Hua has subdued the Great Sun Divine Flame, so she should be able to withstand it. Moreover, her injuries are too severe, and I, your master, cannot heal her. Now I can only hope that the hot spring bath can heal her injuries."
After hearing this, Xia Yang put Hua Changxi down from his back, and he and Xia Xue each held up one of Hua Changxi's arms and slowly put Hua Changxi into the bath.
The boiling 'magma water' in the bath had great buoyancy. Hua Changxi only had her feet immersed in it, and no matter how hard Xia Yang and Xia Xue pushed down, they could not push her body into the 'magma water'.
"Master, what should we do?"
Xia Yang and Xia Xue looked at Baili Changfeng for help.
Baili Changfeng was also at a loss as to what to do about this.
Just when the master and his two disciples didn't know what to do, Hua Changxi moved on his own, squatted down, and sat cross-legged in the bath.
Hua Changxi, who escaped from the space crack, did not completely faint. The crisis had not been resolved yet, and she would not allow herself to faint. However, she was seriously injured. The sea of qi in her dantian, which was originally like a vast ocean, had now dried up. After forcibly putting the Floating Light Sword into her dantian, she was so wounded that she could not even open her eyelids.
When his feet were immersed in the hot bath and he felt the rich fire spiritual energy surging beneath his feet, Hua Changxi didn't have time to issue any commands to his body before his spiritual energy-depleted body moved on its own.
After sitting cross-legged in the hot spring, Hua Changxi started to practice the "Suzaku Divine Art" at full speed, and the already boiling 'magma water' boiled even more violently.
Then, countless red fire auras rose up, wrapped around Hua Changxi's body, and quickly gathered into a tornado-like column of aura.
Looking at this scene, Master Baili Changfeng and his two disciples were all dumbfounded.
"Are all Nascent Soul cultivators' cultivation speed so fast?"
Looking at the spiritual energy column that wrapped around Hua Changxi, Xia Yang and Xia Xue couldn't help but swallow their saliva.
Baili Changfeng was also extremely shocked. It was also the first time for him to see a Nascent Soul cultivator practicing. He had never expected that the gap between a Nascent Soul cultivator and a Core Forming cultivator would be so huge.
According to Senior Hua's cultivation speed, the spiritual energy stored in her Dantian Qi Sea is at least dozens of times that of his, or even more.
This is a huge gap!
Baili Changfeng was deeply shocked. Are other Nascent Soul cultivators like Senior Hua? Or is Senior Hua especially powerful?
The thick column of spiritual energy wrapped around Hua Changxi not only startled Baili Changfeng and his two disciples, but also frightened the three demon followers hiding in the dark a hundred meters away.
"Protector Bai is also in the Infant Realm, but his cultivation speed is not as fast as this female cultivator."
"Nonsense, that female cultivator can summon the Vermillion Bird that suppresses everything, so she must be better than an ordinary human demon."
"If Guardian Bai knew that such a powerful person had appeared in the human race, he would definitely not be able to sleep again."
"What should we do now? That female cultivator is seriously injured. Should we go over and kill her and the other three before she recovers?" "The other three aren't a big threat, but that female cultivator... are you sure we won't be killed if we go over? Wu Tong and the other two were killed without even a ash left."
"..."
"Our goal is to destroy the center of the formation. While they are not paying attention to us, we should hurry up and destroy the center of the formation. If we can destroy the center of the formation before the female cultivator recovers, we may be able to save our lives."
The three of them left quietly.
……
While bathing, as the amount of spiritual energy absorbed increased, Hua Changxi's body began to sink. When Baili Changfeng, his master and his two disciples saw this, they all became a little nervous.
"Senior Hua won't sink, will he?"
"Probably not."
All Baili Changfeng knew about Tanggu was from ancient books. He only knew that soaking in the hot springs could improve the quality of spiritual roots and even shape the spiritual body. He knew nothing else.
"Even if it sinks, it won't be a big deal...right?"
Hua Changxi continued to sink, and soon, the "lava water" submerged her head.
Seeing Hua Changxi sink completely, Master Baili Changfeng and his two disciples were all nervous.
Hua Changxi, who had completely sunk into the 'magma water', did not remain suspended in the water, but continued to sink. When the 'magma water' completely wrapped her body, she felt a little uncomfortable at first, but after she no longer felt the danger, she slowly adapted to it.
In the water, Hua Changxi's body gradually relaxed and stretched freely, and soon, she felt the comfort of returning to the mother's body.
"Bang~"
He kept sinking and sinking. After an unknown amount of time, Hua Changxi felt that he had hit bottom. The bottom was as soft as cotton, and his entire body was embedded in it, as if it had dissolved into one with the water.
At this moment, her tense mood finally relaxed and she fell into a deep sleep.
Time slipped away little by little. Outside the bath, Master Baili Changfeng and his apprentice, who had been waiting for more than ten hours, became anxious when they saw that Hua Changxi had not surfaced.
Baili Changfeng in particular, while waiting, he clearly felt that the demonic energy in Tang Valley had become thicker, and he immediately guessed that the other three demon followers were destroying the center of the formation.
After waiting for a few more hours, seeing that Hua Changxi still showed no signs of emerging, Baili Changfeng said to his two disciples, "We can't wait any longer. The demonic energy is getting stronger and stronger. We have to stop the three demons from destroying the center of the formation."
After hearing this, Xia Yang hesitated and said, "Master, can we deal with those three demon followers?"
Baili Changfeng glared and said, "Even if we can't deal with it, we have to deal with it. Guarding the center of the formation is the duty of the disciples of the Weapon Saint Palace." After saying that, he took out some talismans, formation plates, and pills and distributed them to the two disciples.
"You two stay here, I will go alone. If Senior Hua recovers, you can bring her to me."
Xia Yang and Xia Xue became anxious and expressed their desire to go with him.
Baili Changfeng knew that the demon followers would be difficult to deal with, and he didn't want his two disciples to be in danger: "You two follow me, I will still protect you. Be obedient and wait here for Senior Hua."
After saying that, he no longer paid attention to Xia Yang and Xia Xue, turned around and left.
Xia Yang and Xia Xue looked at each other, and without following Baili Changfeng's order, they followed quietly.
