Chapter Ninety Two – Yin Fire Bead Chapter

Zuo Mo’s body shook like dice . The tendons in his forehead and shoulders were thick like earthworms, they were extremely horrifying .

Pu Yao had come out at some time . Seeing Zuo Mo’s state, he seemed slightly startled .

Zuo Mo’s body continued to tremble for almost an hour before ceasing .

Zuo Mo opened his eyes and heavily exhaled . His eyes looked slightly uncertain . Just now, he felt that his body seemed to have changed slightly, but as to what had changed, he didn’t know . He lowered his head to inspect himself and didn’t make any discoveries .

There wasn’t any problems with the gravestone version of [Vajra Profound Sutra], right? His heart jumped .

“Who taught you this?” Pu Yao’s voice suddenly came from behind him .

Zuo Mo jumped in fright . Turning, he released a breath upon seeing it was Pu Yao, “When you were wounded, it was written on the gravestone . ”

Pu Yao didn’t seem surprised . He only nodded his head: “En . Keep practicing . ”

Zuo Mo’s heart finally settled . Since Pu Yao said for him to keep practicing, then there shouldn’t be a problem . Even though he had encountered great pain when breaking through one breath with [Embryonic Breathing Spiritual Cultivation], but he had to admit that [Embryonic Breathing Spiritual Cultivation] was a good thing . Up until now, Zuo Mo hadn’t found a scripture higher in level than [Embryonic Breathing Spiritual Cultivation] .

“[Fragrance Knowledge] truly isn’t suited for you . ” Pu Yao said something that surprised Zuo Mo enormously . He followed up, “I’ll teach you another way to use your consciousness . ”

Zuo Mo stared at Pu Yao for a long beat . In the end, he couldn’t resist asking, “Pu Yao, are you okay?”

Pu Yao didn’t pay attention to him, stating, “You still have a dozen or so of yin beads . Your control of fire isn’t bad . I’ll teach you how to make yin fire beads . ”

Uh oh, Pu Yao really had been wounded in the head this time! The previous Pu Yao definitely wouldn’t do something like this . Zuo Mo looked sympathetically at Pu Yao . Of course, he didn’t say anything . If there was something to be gained freely and he didn’t take it, then he would be stupid . Pu Yao was now acting stupid, but did he have to follow in stupidity?

He listened extremely carefully, afraid of missing a word .

Last time, yin beads had caused a great disaster in Dong Fu . However, that had also informed Zuo Mo of just how valuable yin beads were . Without a doubt, yin beads were good things! Valuable things! Something that even those jindan experts were fighting over, how could it not be a good thing?

The method of making yin fire beads wasn’t complicated but the contents were extremely lengthy . After a while, Pu Yao was impatient and threw a ball of light at Zuo Mo, letting him read the entire [Yin Fire Bead Chapter] by himself .

To make yin fire beads, there were three requirements . The first was yin beads, the second was fire, and the third was spiritual power . The more pure and dense the yin bead was, the higher grade the fire was, the stronger the consciousness was, the greater the power of the yin fire bead produced . The entire chapter was completely about these three points . The density and formation of yin beads were related to the level of cultivation . The manipulation of spiritual power had a crucial effect during the creation of the yin fired bead . But in the entire chapter, most of the contents were descriptions of all kinds of fire seeds and flames .

In this chapter, the descriptions of fire seeds and flames were extremely detailed . It seemed to have ranked all of the fire seeds and flames that could be used to make yin fire beads . One of them was the fire that Zuo Mo dreamed of, Golden Crow fire . Due to the differences in fires, the effects of the yin fire beads made were different . All kinds of rare and strange flames broadened Zuo Mo’s knowledge and amazed him .

Until he finished, he was still hungry for more . He had never thought that there would be so many kinds of flame in the world . There were even many strange and relatively unknown flames in low grade flames .

This was also the most detailed and complete scripture that he had encountered up until now . He didn’t know which sect the scripture came from . To be able to study fire to this depth, they were really skilled!

As he thought, his heart started to itch and he now wanted to make a few yin fire beads . According to the records in the scripture, as long as he could find a suitable fire, the yin fire beads that he could make would be something that even ningmai wouldn’t easily meet head-on . Yin beads, this thing was really too sensitive . Even if he did make yin fire beads, Zuo Mo wouldn’t easily use them . However, if he had this as one of his hidden cards, if it was a matter of life or death, it maybe could save him .

Thinking about it, Zuo Mo was even more tempted .

In the sea of consciousness, Pu Yao stood in front of the gravestone, smirking, “You finally couldn’t bear it anymore! Three thousand years, your patience finally reached its limits? A guy who isn’t willing to abide by your rules, even as old-fashioned as you, you actually compromised?”

The gravestone was silent .

Pu Yao suddenly became excited, sharpness in his blood eye, shouting, “Then why weren’t you willing to compromise before?”

The gravestone was still silent .

Pu Yao closed his eyes . When he opened them, he was so calm that he seemed like another person . His alluring and handsome face had faint disdain, “You’re dead yet you still want to leave behind your will . When did you become this stupid!” He raised his chin, coldly gazing at the gravestone, “Also, how can I let you do as you please? Dead, then you shouldn’t leave anything behind! Hee, such an interesting game… …”

The gravestone was silent as usual .

Zuo Mo wiped the sweat off his face . He cut a sorry figure, his body covered in dirt and dry leaves . Wu Kong Mountain was situated among a vast stretch of mountains . The places that had some density of ling energy naturally were already occupied . What was abundant was a desolate landscape . Xiuzhe weren’t interested in lands that had no ling energy . They also didn’t have any use for normal lumber . Other than yao beasts, normal wild beasts were just a lump of meat in the eyes of xiuzhe . Now that every sect raised their own ling beasts, there naturally wasn’t anyone who hunted these animals . The woods that were lacking in ling energy, no one usually cared for them .

Zuo Mo was in a poor backwater location now . It was a mountain valley, trees were growing in every direction, most of them were covered in ivy . The high mountain peak blocked the sunlight . This place never saw the sun . The air was filled with a rotting stench . It had been many years since someone had came to this mountain valley . The leaves covering the ground were extremely thick . This kind of place was a breeding ground for miasma but Zuo Mo had prepared and made some first-grade Detoxification Dan .

Over the last few days, he had been making his way through this vast forest . Right now, the elders of the sect were either out on errands or in seclusion . No one was looking over him . He was free and unrestrained . After he had seen the complete method to make yin fire beads, he had the idea of searching for a fire seed .

What he wanted the most was Golden Crow fire . [Yin Fire Bead Chapter] had a high opinion of Golden Crow fire . The yin fire bead that was created with Golden Crow fire would be extremely yang and extremely masculine, astoundingly powerful . But in the short term, he could only think about Golden Crow fire . Before he could find a substitute herb, he couldn’t do anything . Even if he found an herb that could work as a substitute, he wasn’t very confident that it was possible . It was better that he would first find a low grade fire seed . Anything would be better than the Streaming Fire seal formation in the dan cauldron . If he had a fire seed, he could naturally form flames and create some yin fire beads .

There were many low grade fire seeds that were introduced in the [Yin Fire Bead Chapter] . Zuo Mo was extremely motivated .

However, any place that could form fire seeds, it must be a place with plentiful ling energy . If this was in the past, he definitely wouldn’t have any way . But now, he had a fourth-grade black gold worm . Even though this method seemed stupid, but Zuo Mo felt it was very plausible . He was full of confidence in this black gold worm . It could even find a place as hidden as the rock room . If there really was a ling vein, it definitely could find it .

But his luck wasn’t that good . He specially picked backwater places . After searching in the mountains for a week, he still hadn’t discovered anything . Each day, he would start as soon as the sun rose . Occasionally, he would be harassed by animals, yet his hands were empty . It would be a lie to say he wasn’t demotivated . But when he thought of Wei Sheng Shixiong, Zuo Mo felt that this little bit of trouble really wasn’t anything . He relaxed even more when he thought about it . If it could be easily felt, then he wouldn’t have a chance at it .

Looking at the surrounding geography, he decided to try . Taking down a bamboo cylinder slightly thicker than a thumb from his waist, he uncorked it and cast a spell .

The black gold worm climbed out of the cylinder, its antenna nimbly moving and then started crawling deeper into a mountain valley .

Zuo Mo’s mind became alert!

There was something!

This was the first time the black gold worm had reacted like this . He had already become suspicious that this gold black worm had degenerated .

He hurried behind the black gold worm, limping as he sprinted . The Water Drop sword quickly chopped in the front . Anywhere it passed, all the branches and ivy turned to pieces and cleared out a road .

Sprinting until he reached the bottom of a cliff, Zuo Mo saw a cave about half a person high . Weeds were growing over the opening . If he didn’t look closely, it would be hard to find . Zuo Mo only hesitated a while before bending down and pushing in . The inside of the cave was actually large and vast . The cold wind blew Zuo Mo’s hairs on end . He scanned the surroundings . Entering his eyes was stalactites and stalagmites that had formed over thousands of years . The drip drop of water was abnormally clear in the quiet cave .

Zuo Mo quickly found the black gold worm . It had stopped over a non-descript stalagmite .

Compared to those wondrously shaped stalagmites, this stalagmite was only half a person tall, and didn’t have anything that could attract a person’s eye .

Zuo Mo suddenly remembered a part of the [Yin Fire Bead Chapter] and instantly became excited . He slowly inhaled, calming down his excitement before walking towards the stalagmite .

Under his control, the black gold worm reluctantly climbed down the stalagmite and moved to the side .

Zuo Mo raised the Water Drop sword, and following the top of the stalagmite, gently stabbed in .

The Water Drop sword easily entered . Zuo Mo suddenly had a joyous expression .

Raising the Water Drop sword, a milky-white flame suddenly shot out of the cut!

Second-grade rare fire seed, Stalagmite fire!

Greedily looking at this quietly burning milky-white flame, Zuo Mo restrained the excitement and joy inside . Gathering ling power on his hands, he reached towards the Stalagmite fire!

The spells to gather fire seeds were detailed in [Yin Fire Bead Chapter], even better than the spells Zuo Mo saw in Master’s records room . Silently channeling ling power, his hands suddenly became attractive and with a hiss, this Stalagmite fire entered his body .

His expression suddenly became even more serious . Sucking the fire seed into his body didn’t mean that he could celebrate . The next step was the truly important one!

Only by taming the fire seed could the fire seed be used .

But even though this Stalagmite fire was just second-grade, but it had passed through countless months, absorbed countless amounts of ling energy, in order to form and grow to this large .

How could it easily surrender?

Translator Ramblings: Pu has his own story going on here . We will gradually learn about him over time since he and Zuo Mo aren’t going to have a heart-to-heart any time soon .
