Infinite Puzzle City

Chapter 332: Deep Pool of Clear Water
"Swish!"

They were traveling through the mountains and forests. The forests were rugged and the horse was too slow to climb the mountain, so Xiao Ran simply let the horse go and went up the mountain alone.

When going up the mountain, there were only sporadic raindrops falling from the sky, but after Xiao Ran entered Zhashan, the rain suddenly became heavy with a thunder, and the sky and the earth were covered with water.

In an instant, Xiao Ran was drenched like a drowned rat, his entire body soaked.

"I'm so unlucky." Xiao Ran frowned and could only speed up his pace up the mountain.

"Rumble..."

The thunder in the sky grew louder and louder, and the mountains and forests were filled with the sound of thunder.

Fortunately, the destination is not far away.

The mountain road was slippery, but it was like a smooth road for Xiao Ran. The skill of drifting with the wind could not be said to be the top-notch one, but Xiao Ran was very skilled in it. The heavy rain actually added a bit of pleasure to it.

After a while, they arrived at the mountain stream.

"This is it."

Xiao Ran lowered his head and looked down at the gap in the mountain stream, only to see a wisp of white mist rising from below. The biting cold frost fell with the heavy rain, stirring up the chill below, making it unbearably cold for ordinary people.

"Such a heavy cold evil."

Seeing this, Xiao Ran was overjoyed. This place was a dead end for others, but for him, it was a great treasure land.

Then Xiao Ran jumped down directly from above, occasionally slapping the rocks on both sides of the road with his hands to slow down.

The further down they went, the colder it became, and the rain kept falling on their bodies, which added to Xiao Ran's burden.

By the time he was halfway down, a layer of frost had formed on Xiao Ran's body.

Seeing this, Xiao Ran looked at the misty white fog below, immediately exerted force with both arms, grabbed the protruding rocks on the stone wall, and continued to climb down like a clever monkey.

After a moment, I saw that there was an ice cave below.

"This ice layer must be at least thirty centimeters thick."

He took out a flashlight from the space and shone it downwards. Looking at the wonder of icicles hanging in the huge cave, he couldn't help but marvel at it.

He noticed that the rain falling from above turned into ice and snow before it landed in the cave.

You can see how cold the temperature is here.

Without further ado, he took out the [Head-Beheading Sword], activated it with [Horizontal Refining], and threw it down.

"Buzz!"

The sword blade pierced into the ice, and then the privilege 2 Tun Ling was activated.

Spiritual charm +100"

Spiritual Charm +200
Spiritual Charm +300
The endless spiritual energy began to be absorbed by the [Sword of Beheading], and a look of joy appeared on Xiao Ran's face.

"The evil spirit here is much richer than that of the prison. It is truly a Feng Shui treasure land."

Xiao Ran jumped down from above, took out a blanket from the space and spread it in the corner, then took out some food and stuffed it into his mouth.

While eating, I was thinking about what Gao Yuting said.

In fact, on the way here, Xiao Ran seemed to gradually understand Gao Yuting's decisiveness.

She was not the kind of well-educated lady. Her master even dared to kill the emperor, and secular etiquette could not restrain her at all.

This time the yellow disaster is approaching, ordinary people may not know how cruel and cruel it is.

But Xiao Ran had witnessed the actions of those beasts with his own eyes, and if a woman fell into their hands.

Suicide is definitely the best option.

If possible, it would be best not to let them get their hands on the body.

Otherwise, what awaits them is torture worse than death, and they will become tools for those beasts to vent their anger.

Even in the end, the body may not be preserved.

I know this, and Gao Yuting may not be unaware of it.

So it's no wonder she feels pessimistic about the future.

"That was in the past. Now I am here. Even if this place can't accommodate you, I can still take you away from this damn place."

Xiao Ran took a deep breath and ate the bread in his hand in one bite. He didn't dare to say that he could turn the tide and become a savior, but he could guarantee that Gao Yuting and her sister would escape unscathed.

However, the situation in Wancheng was more complicated than he thought. Not to mention the bomb of Nuomen, the great general Chongtian was a big trouble in himself.

In order to ensure that everything goes well, Xiao Ran must seize every opportunity and time to enhance his own strength to ensure that no matter he advances or retreats in the future, he can ensure that the people around him survive safely.

Thinking of this, Xiao Ran thought for a moment and then took out Shang Zhengzheng's body. He saw that the abdominal cavity of this headless body was cut open and the internal organs were almost all emptied, but Xiao Ran still kept the heart.

I saw from Shang Zhengjing’s memory before that this guy has a treasure hidden in his heart.

【Heart source Dzi beads】

At this moment, Xiao Ran took out the heart and found that even though Shang Zhengzheng had been dead for so long, the heart was still warm.

He took out a scalpel and cut a hole along the atrium. Soon a bead about the size of the little finger nail was squeezed out of the atrium.

"Have you discovered whether the C-level cursed item [Heart Source Dzi Bead] is activated!"

"It's indeed a good thing."

Xiao Ran chose to use [Scholar] to activate.

C-level cursed item [Heart source Dzi bead·Scholar]

A special parasitic curse.

Perk 1: Parasite

After parasitizing into the host's body, it will take root permanently in the host and provide extremely strong vitality.

Privilege 2: Scholar's heart.

After using your profession to activate the curse, you can gain the blessing of the scholar's heart.

Possessing a very high ability to learn and observe, one's own understanding is greatly improved.

(Note: Once the curse is parasitized, it cannot be removed on its own and will cause a coma for 12-24 hours. Please consider carefully.)
"It's parasitism again. I hope it won't be a sacrificial vessel again."

Xiao Ran looked at the silver bracelet on his wrist and immediately stuffed it into his mouth. "A barefoot person is not afraid of a person wearing shoes, and a person with many debts is not worried. Anyway, I already have a sacrificial vessel on me, so I am not afraid of having one more or one less. If it is parasitic, then it is parasitic. Let's see who has parasitized the other more."

After taking the [Heart Source Dzi Bead], Xiao Ran soon felt a sharp pain in his chest, as if something was drilling into his heart.

The pain became more and more intense. Xiao Ran could still bear it at first, but as the pain deepened, his eyes went dark, his body tilted, and he fell to the ground, fainting.

I don’t know how much time had passed, but I heard a dripping sound by my ears, and cold drops of water fell on Xiao Ran’s cheeks.

As he gradually regained consciousness, Xiao Ran suddenly opened his eyes and sat up from the ground to take a look.

Fortunately, the ice around us has begun to melt.

When I took out a flashlight and took a look, I was also shocked to find that the cave had turned into a pool of water.

Many prompts also appeared in front of Xiao Ran.

"Spiritual charm level increased to LV3! Tunsha effect strengthened."

Spiritual charm +500...

The spiritual charm level is increased to LV4, and the Tunsha effect is strengthened.

Spiritual charm +1000...

The spiritual charm level is increased to LV5, and the Tunsha effect is strengthened.

Spiritual charm +2000...

"Reminder, [Heart Source Dzi Bead] has completed parasitism, you gain Agility +10, Spirit +15, Constitution +10."

Looking at the prompt that appeared in front of him, Xiao Ran was suddenly overjoyed. He stood up and took a deep breath. He felt a warm current in his heart quickly surge throughout his body. At this moment, Xiao Ran felt as if his body was filled with endless power.

"Physical fitness has exceeded 50."

Xiao Ran was greatly surprised by the effect of [Xinyuan Dzi Bead]. He did not expect the enhancement to be so strong.

After the strength breaks through 50, one can have a crushing effect on those whose strength is less than 50.

After his physical fitness broke through 50, Xiao Ran felt as if he had been reborn.

Xiao Ran felt an unprecedented sense of relief, and suddenly he no longer felt any pain in his waist or legs, and even the broken skin didn't hurt.

Not only did his physical fitness improve, but his mental strength also became stronger.

Xiao Ran closed his eyes at this moment and could even sense every movement within a radius of fifty meters around him.

“If all four attributes break through the 50 mark, I wonder what the effect will be!”

This idea may seem a bit far-fetched to other beginners. It is not easy to break through 50 for a single attribute, let alone reach 50 for all four attributes.

But Xiao Ran felt that this might not be impossible.

My current attributes are strength 50, constitution 55, agility 30, and spirit 45.

(Note: In Chapter 5, eat the [Great Music Buddha Jumps Over the Wall] made by Wu Man, and your spirit will increase by 5! In Chapter , the journey to the underworld, eat the [Celebration Fruit], and your spirit will increase by !)
In other words, he was now close to breaking through 50 points in all four attributes, with only agility lagging behind a little, but spirit was very close.

Thinking of this, Xiao Ran was so happy that she could hardly close her legs.

The stronger you are, the more confident you will be in dealing with the so-called yellow disaster.

Xiao Ran took back the [Head-Beheading Sword].

After checking, I found that the sword's spiritual power has now reached level 5.

The spiritual energy reserves have reached 53500 points.

After the spiritual charm reaches LV5, you can release: Spirit Flame Explosion
Each time consumes 20000 points of spiritual energy.

In other words, you can release two Spiritual Flame Blasts, or ten Spiritual Pressure Blasts. (Each time consumes 5000 Spiritual Rhythm points)
Xiao Ran instantly felt more confident now.

"General Chongtian, right? Even if I can't beat you, I can definitely blow you to death."

Xiao Ran snorted coldly, but did not dare to have any arrogant thoughts in his heart.

Huang Zai is not just a mighty general, but also the Locust God and the Huang Zai Army behind him.

If one wants to influence the battlefield with personal ability, it cannot be done with just a cursed object.

Xiao Ran put away the [Head-Beheading Sword] and was about to leave. Before leaving, he took a look at the deep pool. Suddenly, he had a strange feeling in his heart. He stopped and planned to take a closer look at what was under the deep pool that could gather such a cold and evil spirit.

The water in the pond is deep and bottomless.

Xiao Ran thought for a moment, and simply took out his [Spiritual Robe] and used it to dive into the water.

"thump……"

A water splash disappearance technique is to dive into the water and dive rapidly downwards.

It was very dark underwater and you couldn't see your hand in front of you.

But Xiao Ran didn't need to take out the flashlight. The effect of his powerful mental strength was reflected at this time, and the space within a radius of fifty meters around him was entirely presented in his mind.

As he dived deeper and deeper, Xiao Ran suddenly saw a coffin at the bottom of the water.

It’s still a crystal coffin.

This time, Xiao Ran opened his eyes, took out a flashlight and shone it towards the coffin. He saw a man and a woman lying quietly in the coffin.

The man was holding a sword in his arms, and the woman was clinging to his body as if she was asleep.

"Joint burial!"

Looking at the crystal coffin in front of him, Xiao Ran couldn't help but be surprised. He thought there would be some rare treasure underneath.

But I didn't expect that there were actually two corpses.

"Who are they?"

At this time, I swept the flashlight and saw a stone tablet next to the coffin.

After moving closer to carefully examine the contents on the stone tablet, Xiao Ran's eyes suddenly widened and he looked back at the coffin in front of him.

The expression on his face was one of horror, as if he had seen a dead body come back to life, and his heartbeat began to accelerate.

She is……

Frost Concubine!
