C27 (1/2)

Remembering that the labourer from before had only touched the igneous ore, his hands instantly rotted. Yun Yi was also afraid of the fiery-red ores, but after a moment of thought, he thought of a question, ”The air in the mine tunnel also contains fire poison, it's just a lot lighter. Since I am able to avoid being corroded by the fire poison, then if I were to come into direct contact with them, would I also be corroded by the fire poison?”

Looking at the carriage filled with igneous ore, he saw that it was shining with red light and was extremely beautiful.

Yun Yi had lived in the Yun Village since he was young. Even though he had used spirit stones before, his quantity had been very small. He remembered that when he broke through to the Third Stage of Body Refinement three years ago, the Patriarch Grandpa had given him a tael of Water Spirit Stone.

Just as he was thinking, the fire poisonous insect in his dantian danced even more excitedly.

Yun Yi watched silently and realized that the direction in which it was flying was in the direction of the carriage of igneous ore s.

”igneous ore? Could it be that the fire poisonous insect was interested in it? Excited about it? ”

With that in mind, Yun Yi walked closer to the carriage of igneous ore. In this way, he discovered that the fire poisonous insect in his dantian was even more excited, and from top to bottom, it was even letting out a slight sizzling sound.

Yun Yi tried to put on the deerskin gloves and pick up a Spirit Ore. Suddenly, he discovered that his arm had turned red all of a sudden.

Following that, a ring of light erupted from the vein, completely enveloping the Spirit Ore.

Yun Yi only felt that the Spirit Ore was gradually heating up. After six or seven breaths, suddenly, with a ”crack” sound, the Spirit Ore in his hands disappeared, and suddenly shattered into pieces of powder.

”This …”

This phenomenon was too strange and shocking.

He peeped at his Dantian, only to discover that the fire poisonous insect was hibernating on top of the flame pool, greedily absorbing traces of bright red spirit energy.

It was as if the scarlet strands of spiritual power were coming from that huge ore.

”You can actually absorb the spirit energy from the igneous ore?” Yun Yi opened his eyes wide, as though he could not believe what was happening, and immediately tried to pick up an even larger piece of spirit force.

Not long after, the strange tendons on his arm appeared again, and a red ring of light once again surrounded the Spirit Stone. This spirit stone heated up once again. After six to seven breaths of time, its color also instantly disappeared, disintegrating into a pile of fine powder.

”It really can be absorbed!”

Yun Yi swallowed his saliva with much difficulty.

The fire poisonous insect had become much weaker after helping him advance two levels consecutively within a single day last time. Now that it could absorb igneous ore to replenish itself, he was naturally extremely happy.

”Since you can absorb the spirit energy from the igneous ore, then this carriage of Spirit Ore will belong to you!”

Yun Yi laughed out loud, he did not know whether fire poisonous insect would understand the human language or not, but when Yun Yi said it, it was as if he was talking to himself.

As for the fire poisonous insect, it was greedily absorbing the red spirit energy.

However, the fire poisonous insect was unrestrained. It could suck in the igneous ore that contained highly toxic poison as usual. Furthermore, the more he inhaled, the more excited he became. He didn't feel unwell at all.

To satisfy its greed, Yun Yi picked up the spirit stones one by one. As he watched the spirit stones crumble into pieces and the spirit energy disappear completely, the anticipation in his heart was also quite strong.

Last time, the fire poisonous insect had helped him to advance two levels in a single day. This time, if the fire poisonous insect could obtain a complete replenishment of his spirit energy, it might be able to help him to advance once again.
