Chapter 248 247. Qi Refining Level (Subscribe!)
The sacred fire tower.

The raging fire continued to burn, flames and slurry spurted out wildly, and from time to time there were explosions, flames splashed, and flames danced wildly.

Being in it, you are surrounded by a scorching breath, as if you are being bitten by thousands of ants.

Xu Qing's body was strengthened by the essence and blood of a true dragon.

Even so, I felt this way, so you can imagine how terrifying the fire here is.

Xu Qing subconsciously stirred up his Yuan Qi and transformed it into protective Qi, but the Yuan Qi was consumed very quickly.

Fortunately, the water contained in his Yuan Qi behaves like the essence and blood of a true dragon.

As the true dragon's blood and essence dissipated and fought against the burning fire, the rate of consumption gradually slowed down.

"Master Inspector, with your level of cultivation, you can only stay in the Divine Fire Platform for a cup of tea."

"Exceeding the time limit may put lives in danger."

Mr. Zhu's voice floated from above.

Xu Qing immediately said: "A cup of tea is enough."

After saying that, he immediately activated the Red Emperor's Qi-nourishing Talisman, using it as a bridge to absorb the burning energy here.

So see you in the next moment.

Xu Qing sat cross-legged in the void, the Red Emperor's Qi-nourishing Talisman flying in front of him, flashing continuously.

Strands of burning fiery energy rushed towards the Red Emperor's Qi-nourishing Talisman like hundreds of rivers flowing into the sea, and then flowed into Xu Qing's body.

For ordinary practitioners, directly absorbing the burning energy in this way is tantamount to burning oneself.

Even practitioners who specialize in fire magic may not be able to withstand it.

The Dasheng Divine Fire Platform evolved from the fate of the Fire Deity, and contains all kinds of strange fires collected by Dasheng over the years.

The scorching energy produced by the interweaving of thousands of divine fires is extraordinary, and the cruelty and tyranny contained in it is not much less than that of evil spirits of disaster and war.

But as long as the twelve guardian gods in Xu Qing's body move together, he will be like a god subduing dragons and tigers.

The violent and overbearing burning energy calmed down in an instant, lingering in the major acupoints in his body.

In the Dantian, the Yuan Qi transformed into a dragon entangled with a blue-green aura and swam out, fiercely pouncing towards the acupoint where the burning fire energy gathered.

The Yuanqi Jiaolong swallowed up mouthful of burning energy, and its body size, which should have reached its limit, broke through the limit.

I don’t know how much time has passed.

At this moment, Xu Qing's eyes suddenly opened, and there seemed to be rays of light flying through his eyes, and his aura rose rapidly.

He broke through!
Reached the fourth level of Qi Refining!
The breakthrough process was extremely smooth without any setbacks.

Xu Qing felt the surging Qi in his body and immediately withdrew his protective Qi without suffering any harm.

Now that he has melted the burning energy into his Yuan Qi, this Divine Fire Platform is like a fish in water to him.

Then the restriction of only staying for a cup of tea will naturally be invalid.

Although the goal has been achieved, it is a rare opportunity to come to the Divine Fire Platform, and Xu Qing does not want to leave so soon.

He once again took out a few Chidi nourishing talismans to absorb the burning energy here, and at the same time dived into the depths of the space of the Divine Fire Platform.

Outside the sacred fire platform, Mr. Zhu, who was resting with his eyes closed, suddenly showed a change of expression and opened his eyes.

"What's wrong, Mr. Zhu? Did the inspector encounter danger in the Divine Fire Platform?" Feng Lingchen noticed that something was wrong with Mr. Zhu and asked hurriedly.

Mr. Zhu said unhappily, "He is fine. He will not be in any danger at all."

"Ah?" Feng Lingchen was confused.

The Divine Fire Platform contains tens of thousands of Divine Fires. If there is any mistake, the top cultivators in the five realms will be in danger of falling.

How can we patrol so that adults are not in danger?

Unfortunately, Mr. Zhu had no intention of explaining and closed his eyes again to rest.

Feng Lingchen could only wait on the side. A cup of tea passed quickly, but Xu Qing did not come out.

There was no movement from Mr. Zhu. Feng Lingchen suppressed his anxiety and waited patiently.

Time passed by, but Xu Qing still didn't come back from the Divine Fire Platform.

Feng Lingchen's heart was spinning with anxiety, but the Divine Fire Platform was not a place where he could mess around, so he could only watch Zhu Lao helplessly.

Mr. Zhu's heart is actually not as calm as it appears.

The problem is that the Divine Fire Platform has never stipulated how long one can stay inside. As long as one has the ability, one can stay inside for the rest of one's life.

But everyone who has entered the Divine Fire Platform knows how powerful the flames inside are.

Therefore, no one below the level of great supernatural powers could stay in the Divine Fire Platform for too long, and now, an outlier has appeared.

At this time.

Old Zhu's face twitched suddenly, and he poked the ground hard with the crutch in his hand, and the fire veins on the sacred fire platform appeared again.

Xu Qing's figure reappeared immediately.

"Ah, why am I back?" Xu Qing asked in surprise.

Zhu Lao raised his eyelids slightly, and there was no emotion in his voice: "The inspector has stayed in the Divine Fire Platform for long enough, why not come back next time."

"next time?"

Xu Qing's eyebrows twitched slightly. This was the only chance he had since he took over as inspector.

I don’t know when I will accumulate enough merits to get the chance to enter the Divine Fire Platform.

Zhu Lao said calmly: "Your Excellency the Inspector can come to the Divine Fire Platform again to count the unfinished time this time."

After Mr. Zhu finished speaking, Xu Qing didn't react at all. Instead, Feng Lingchen glared at him. Since when could the Divine Fire Altar be used twice at a time?
But thinking about how long Xu Qing had stayed in the Divine Fire Platform,
"In that case, Mr. Zhu, I'll come again next time." Xu Qing took the opportunity to back off.

What we gained from the Divine Fire Platform just now is enough, so it’s better not to push our luck further.

Upon hearing this, Mr. Zhu's breathing became heavier and he closed his eyes.

Out of sight, out of mind.

Seeing this, Xu Qing and Feng Lingchen had no choice but to bow and leave.

On the way out of the cave, Feng Lingchen asked with a strange look on his face: "What did you do in the Divine Fire Platform?"

He had brought people to the Divine Fire Platform not many times, but not few either. This was the first time he had seen Mr. Zhu like this.

Xu Qing smiled awkwardly and did not continue the conversation.

When Feng Lingchen saw his expression, he knew that something was fishy, ​​but since Xu Qing didn't say anything, he didn't dare to ask any further questions.

After returning to the Arctic Exorcism Institute, Xu Qing immediately said goodbye to Feng Lingchen. After breaking through his realm, he still needed some time to consolidate it.

The next day.

Xu Qing still came to the Arctic Exorcism House wearing his Taoist robe.

He came alone, but left with a large group of more than thirty people.

Each of the demon-hunting agents is dressed in black robes with patterns of different ferocious beasts based on the “Twenty-Eight Constellations”. They have knives on their waists and look extremely ferocious.

This movement of the Arctic Exorcism House immediately attracted the attention of various forces in the Imperial Capital.

"Has it started?" The abbot of Baiyun Temple and the chief academic officer of the Imperial College were playing chess in the courtyard. He said in a gentle voice while picking up the chess pieces.

"The imperial capital is going to be in turmoil again. The matter of the Fengyang Imperial Mausoleum has been under discussion for so long, it's time to give an explanation." Chen Boxian sighed.

The two people's voices were carried up into the sky by the wind, and seemed to be heard by people all over the capital, causing them to sigh.

Xu Qing led the team to the gate of a magnificent and luxurious mansion.

The plaque on this mansion reads "Prince Jing's Mansion".

Prince Jing is the younger brother of the current emperor. He has several sons and daughters, who are still alive and have all appeared in the Fengyang Imperial Mausoleum.
