In the Fire Persimmon Mountain. The lair of the demon ape. In the cave where the Yuanying-level demon ape was, the ice fog gradually dissipated. Seeing this scene, the Jindan cultivators present were all excited. "It's out, it's out!" Zheng Shuanggou shouted. Ning Jiufan slowly floated out from the thin ice fog. His face was like golden paper, his lips were pale, and he seemed to be drained of energy, like a piece of paper floating in the wind, very weak. "Brother Ning, you really worked hard this time!" Zhu Xuanji took the lead and immediately came to Ning Jiufan and supported him. Ning Jiufan's body was still trembling slightly. He looked at Zhu Xuanji blankly, his eyes red, with a kind of sadness and joy that seemed to have been in another world and finally survived.
Zhu Xuanji was also observing Ning Jiufan. Seeing the latter's sunken eye sockets and cheeks, he couldn't help but secretly shocked: "It's only been a short time!" The four Jindan cultivators from the Zhou family and the Zheng family gathered around and expressed their gratitude and condolences. They spoke completely from the heart. If Ning Jiufan hadn't been at the forefront, one of them would probably have become a victim. "Brother Ning is so noble! We will remember your dedication and sacrifice for the rest of our lives!" "We were all saved by you this time. This is a life-saving grace, and I will definitely repay you in the future." Ning Jiufan sighed deeply: "I also saved myself. After this battle, I hope that in the future, we can advance and retreat together, unite as one, and build a bright future together." All the Jindan nodded in agreement. Ning Jiufan's great sacrifice made his status soar among the Jindan cultivators and gained him huge influence! Zheng Shuanggou took out a portion of Nine Yang Yellow Ox Paste. He said to Ning Jiufan with concern: "Brother Ning, you are extremely weak now, so you should use some of the top-grade elixirs from my Zheng family." Nevertheless, when Ning Jiufan saw the Nine Yang Yellow Ointment, his eyes twitched violently. He suppressed his nausea and waved his hands repeatedly: "Don't, don't let me see this potion." "Okay, okay!" Zheng Shuanggou quickly put the ointment away. The Jindan immediately understood that Ning Jiufan's injuries this time were not only physical, but also mental. His sacrifice was really too great! This made everyone admire Ning Jiufan even more and had a more compensatory mentality. Next, everyone took out other elixirs and stuffed them into Ning Jiufan's hands, and they almost fed him water and medicine by hand. All kinds of elixirs had excellent effects, and soon Ning Jiufan's breath stabilized.
Roar! At this time, the Yuanying-level Fire Melting Demon Ape suddenly let out a low roar. The surging Nascent Soul aura made all the Jindan cultivators and the Fire Melting Demon Ape King outside the cave tremble physically and mentally. At this time, the ice fog completely dissipated. The Nascent Soul-level Fire Melting Demon Ape looked satisfied. It lay down again and slowly closed its eyes. Before falling asleep, it stretched out its finger and shot out a stream of blood. The blood was like a meteor chasing the moon, and it was very fast. In the blink of an eye, it shot into Ning Jiufan's forehead and put a red mole on his forehead. After completing this step, the Fire Melting Demon Ape completely closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep. Soon, it began to snore. Ning Jiufan hurriedly reached out and touched his forehead. He felt that this blood was concentrated to the limit, extremely stubborn and difficult to eradicate. His face suddenly became very ugly. Obviously, the Nascent Soul-level female ape completely fell in love with him and gave him a unique mark. What should he do in the future? The other Jindan cultivators stared at the red mole between Ning Jiufan's eyebrows, and their expressions were also very surprised and shocked, with strong emotions of fear and relief in their hearts. Zhu Xuanji quickly sent a message to comfort Ning Jiufan, telling him that he would do his best to help him. The other Jindan cultivators also said that Ning Jiufan's problem was everyone's problem! They would definitely help him with all their strength in the future. At this time, the Fire Melting Demon Ape King walked into the cave with several Jindan-level demon apes. The atmosphere in the cave suddenly became tense. Zhu Xuanji took a step forward and stood in front of Ning Jiufan, facing many Jindan-level Fire Melting Demon Apes. However, the Fire Melting Demon Apes, who were roaring and angry not long ago and fighting a life-and-death duel, had no intention of fighting at all. Seeing that the human Jindan cultivators were very alert, they took the initiative to step back a few steps and raised their hands high to indicate that they had no intention of starting a war. Then, the Fire Melting Demon Ape King pointed at Ning Jiufan, clapped his hands, and roared continuously. The several Jindan-level demon apes behind him also clapped their hands, danced with joy, and their faces were full of admiration. Some even revealed worshipful eyes. The human Jindan cultivators looked at each other, and then focused their eyes on Ning Jiufan. Ning Jiufan's face was even uglier than before! The Fire Melting Demon Apes' worshipful eyes and applause were like slaps on his face, making him feel extremely embarrassed and ashamed. Zhu Xuanji and others tried to put on a straight face, some frowned, some bit their tongues, and some tightened their muscles. After clapping for a while, the Fire Melting Demon Ape King pointed at Ning Jiufan again, and then pointed at the cave entrance. It did this round of actions three times in a row, and then took the initiative to lead the Jindan-level demon apes out of the cave entrance.
The human Jindans all understood what it meant - it was an invitation for them to go out. Zhu Xuanji was still the first to lead the way. One cultivator from the Zheng family and one from the Zhou family followed behind, protecting Ning Jiufan, the great hero, in the middle of the team. The human Jindan cultivators walked out of the cave and came to the previous battlefield. The Fire Demon Ape King waved to the countless demon apes gathered here, and then roared. The demon apes at the foundation level dispersed in a rush. Soon, only the golden elixir level was left in the field. The Fire Demon Ape King suddenly beat his belly, and then vomited out a stone ball. It then grabbed the stone ball and handed it to Ning with a look of reluctance to part with it. Rumor has it that the demonic apes gave back to the warriors! A golden light flashed in Zhu Xuanji's eyes, and he immediately recognized the stone ball. He couldn't help but look stunned: "This is a fire core pomegranate. Each pomegranate seed is an explosive talisman. When used, it can rival the full blow of an ordinary golden elixir." " "But if it is used in this way, it will undoubtedly be a waste of natural resources!" "Pomegranate seeds can be used as fire cores, combined with other corresponding fuels, to preserve special fire." "This is the first time I have seen such a big pomegranate. Even the royal family's inventory does not include fire core pomegranates of this quality." There is no doubt that this is a very rare treasure. After Ning Jingfan heard Zhu Xuanji's explanation, he immediately reached out and took the pomegranate. After checking it, he took out a talisman and stuck it on the surface of the pomegranate, and then stuffed the pomegranate into his storage belt. Zhou Nongying couldn't help but rejoice: "I didn't expect that the Ape King has such a trump card. It seems that we were very lucky to have accidentally broken into the cave and avoided a fatal fight with the Fire Demon Ape King." The two golden elixirs of the Zheng family stared at the pomegranate, their eyes always lingering, as if they were glued. They communicated privately: "These pomegranate seeds can be used in many places to refine weapons." "Yes, I have thought of at least thirty kinds. It must be very effective!" After the Fire Melting Demon Ape King sent out the pomegranate, he called back a few times. The three Jindan subordinates immediately turned around and left here. After a dozen breaths, they turned back. The leader, a fire-melting demon ape, was raising his arms high, carrying a giant flame. The flame was about the size of a carriage, and was generally dark red, but from time to time there was a flash of darkness in the flame. At the tip of the flame, a thick black smoke often emits. "Earth Fire!" "Such a big flame is a resource of the Nascent Soul level!" The cultivators were amazed.
The earth evil fire not only has terrifying firepower and emits high temperature all the time, but also has the severe toxicity of the fire evil. It has great limitations when used to refine elixirs. It is most commonly used to refine fire poison elixirs and the like. But it can be used to refine weapons. This flame alone surpasses the Tianzihao weapon refining room controlled by the Zheng family in some aspects of weapon refining. The two golden elixirs of the Zheng family were so excited that their eyes widened. This flame is extremely tempting to them! The Huorong Demon Ape does not practice any martial arts, and relies on the natural growth of the physical body and continuous tempering in nature during the growth process to be promoted to the golden elixir level of combat power. They have no magic to isolate themselves from the high temperature of the earthly fire, and can only resist through special body structures. The golden elixir-level demonic ape carrying the Earthly Fire gradually couldn't bear it anymore, and was burned by the fire until it grinned. It held up to the limit and handed the fire ball to its companions behind it. After its companion took over, he couldn't bear it after carrying it for a while, and his hands were burned to a paste, so he could only hand the Earthly Fire to the third companion behind him. In this way, the three golden elixir-level fire-melting demon apes relied on each other's relay to give the earth evil fire to Ning. Ning obeyed this time and posted thirteen talismans in succession, and then managed to seal the earth evil fire. Under the eager gazes of the two golden elixir monks from the Zheng family, Ning surrendered and pocketed the Earthly Evil Fire. Zhu Xuanji couldn't bear it any longer, coughed, and sent a message to Ning: "Brother Ning, don't forget, the main purpose of our trip." So, when the Huorong Demon Ape King continued to send treasures, Ning Yifan took the initiative to reach out and pointed at the mechanism demon general in the hill of trophies. The Fire Demon Ape King tilted his head, somewhat incomprehensible, but after Ning Yifan's repeated expressions, it still pulled out the Machine Demon General and handed it over to Ning Yifan. The gifts of the demon apes are far from over. The Demon Ape King sent six more heavy gifts to reward Ning for submitting. After that, the demon apes began to chase people away. Zhu Xuanji achieved his goal and had no motivation to stay in such a dangerous environment. He immediately led a group of golden elixirs and left the Demon Ape's lair. They returned along the original path and came to the top of the volcano, where they saw Meng Kui again. Although Meng Kui was located in the misty sky at the top of the mountain, he still found out a lot about the experiences of everyone in Huoshi Mountain. Watching the cultivators leave, he looked indifferent, but felt very sorry in his heart. During this trip, all the Jindans were able to say that there was no danger, and no one was reduced, which made Meng Kui's hopes come to nothing. Ning surrendered and held on to the magic general, and did not hand it over to Zhu Xuanji immediately.
