Chapter 228 Black Gold Brick
Chapter 228 Black Gold Brick
Continue adding bait; the fish swallow it, and the reddish hue grows brighter and brighter.
Aquamarine paired with fiery red, followed by pale purple. Wood green paired with fiery red creates yellow, earthy yellow paired with fiery red creates orange, and gold paired with fiery red creates a shimmering orange.
Looking at these colors, shouldn't we try to break the balance?
Breaking down the boundary between orange and bright orange, a streak of bright orange rushed in without hesitation, and the orange began to retreat and dodge until it had nowhere to go and was completely assimilated by the bright orange.
A dazzling bright orange color squeezed the pale purple and yellow to shrink, and then, surprisingly, the two sides began to merge automatically, turning into a light black.
Ning Xiaoxi's eyes widened in surprise. "You can do that?"
The black wasn't pure enough; it even had a dark gray feel to it.
The bright orange light flickered, and a faint golden light flashed past. A sharp needle pierced through the black boundary, and the bright orange light began to disrupt the black. Unfortunately, the black was too stable. Although the bright orange light was the main force, it could not resist the weight of the black. In the end, it formed a black brick with a bright color.
Ning Xiaoxi blinked at the black brick in front of her, picked it up to test its feel. Not bad, smooth and hard. What would happen if it broke? She looked around. Oh, she was in a tent, so she couldn't experiment.
Then make a few more, and once we enter the trial grounds, we can try them out in the chaotic battle of raising Gu.
The more she made the bricks, the smoother she became, and the colors gradually became richer, from glossy black to dark black, to dark gray, to light gray, and finally she even made a black brick with a golden sheen. The beauty of the black and gold combination made Ning Xiaoxi love it!
He casually put the black and gold spirit crystal brick back into the cave, reluctant to throw it away.
As she continued laying bricks, the five-colored elements around her became increasingly active and numerous. They weren't competing with spiritual power, nor were they vying with the crowd; everyone was focused on vying for spiritual power and didn't care about the quantity of elements. Therefore, no one noticed that almost all the elements had rushed into Ning Xiaoxi's tent.
Once you start, you'll start again. When the tenth black-gold spirit crystal brick appeared, Ning Xiaoxi felt a little tired. She turned her head and looked at the row of more than a hundred five-element spirit crystal bricks, and felt that she had been too diligent.
Just as I was about to move these spirit crystal bricks back to my cave, I discovered that the black gold spirit crystal brick I had thrown in earlier was gone.
A quick glance revealed that Xiaoxue had moved them to the Spirit Source Hut. Several small illusory pythons were still perched on it, golden light flowing within the bricks, making the light pouring down from the Spirit Source even brighter.
Ning Xiaoxi placed a row of spirit crystal bricks outside the hut, shook her neck which was a little sore from looking down for too long, and then turned over and lay down on her small bed.
I squinted at the bright sky outside and fell asleep.
Ning Xiaoxi was awakened by a rumbling stomach. As soon as she woke up, she smelled an enticing aroma and followed the scent out of the tent.
Tianji sat calmly in the setting sun, the warm yellow light shining on him, creating a hazy, beautiful effect.
Ning Xiaoxi ran to Tianji's side with bright eyes, "My lord, you've come."
Tianji raised his eyelids and glanced at her. "Go wash up."
Ning Xiaoxi paused for a moment, staring at Tianji.
Sui Lanting came over carrying a water bottle, and with a smile, pulled Ning Xiaoxi back to the tent, saying, "Xiaoxi, your hair is all messed up from sleeping, it doesn't look very elegant."
Ning Xiaoxi obediently followed him back to the tent, muttering under her breath, "You don't need to explain to him."
Sui Lanting smiled as she poured hot water into the basin. "Su Yu specially went back to the city to buy lotus leaf chicken. It's almost done cooking. Come out and eat after you've washed up."
"Mmm, I knew Su Yu was reliable." Ning Xiaoxi nodded quickly and started washing up.
Sui Lanting went out.
Ning Xiaoxi wasn't in a hurry. Her hair was getting a bit long, and it was difficult to tie it up. Should she cut it shorter?
Looking at the clothes her mother had sewn for her, she realized there were only three summer outfits left. She picked one with scrolling grass patterns embroidered on the cuffs and put it on.
The advantage of being young is that your face is tender and smooth to the touch. You don't need to do any skincare because it's full of collagen.
Although it was already dusk outside and the sun wasn't so intense, the ultraviolet rays were still very strong. I took out a scarf I bought in Yandu and covered my head to cover my delicate skin.
Ning Xiaoxi reappeared and took small steps to sit down next to Sui Lanting.
Tianji glanced at her, then put his hand to his forehead, unable to bear looking at her.
Sui Lanting, however, thought it was fine. Xiao Xi's skin was fair, and the sun was scorching; it wouldn't be good if she got sunburned. He poured Ning Xiao Xi a bowl of water, saying, "You've been sleeping a bit irregularly these past two days. The trial starts early tomorrow morning, so don't stay up late tonight."
"Sister Sui, how did you know I stayed up late!" Ning Xiaoxi pulled down the gauze in front of her and drank the warm water, not too hot, not too cold, just right.
"Your sister Sui was worried something might happen to you, so she didn't even take over from Xian Feng and Xian Yun. She only went to rest after hearing the sound of you sleeping soundly in your tent," Su Yu blurted out.
Ning Xiaoxi tilted her head and leaned on Sui Lanting's shoulder, "Sister Sui still loves me the most!"
Xian Feng and Xian Yun seemed somewhat disconnected; why was Ning Shuguan acting so awkwardly in front of the adults?
Su Yu started digging holes, and soon one after another, he dug out the earthen mounds.
Ning Xiaoxi and the others stared at the dusty, dirt-covered egg.
"It's a secret from heaven!" came an aged voice.
Sui Lanting pulled Ning Xiaoxi to her feet and respectfully bowed to the approaching old man.
Tianji stood up. "Elder He, if there's anything, you can just call Tianji over. Why did you come all the way here in person?"
Elder He's dark red robes appeared somewhat somber in the setting sun, as if soaked in blood. Ning Xiaoxi lowered her head, pulling her veil over her face, not wanting to smell that odor.
"The trials start early tomorrow morning. I'd like to ask you to go with me to the barrier for one last check of the demons inside, so that we don't miss anything." Elder He spoke with an air of righteousness, but in reality, the slaughter of the demons yesterday made him uneasy. He was worried that if all the candidate Celestial Masters died while he was the examiner, it would be a disgrace.
Tianji recalled the report Sui Lanting had given him earlier that day and nodded with a smile, "Of course, please, Elder."
Tianji left with Elder He.
Everyone is much more at ease when the leader isn't around.
Su Yu placed two earthen eggs in front of Ning Xiaoxi.
Ning Xiaoxi gave Su Yu a thumbs up, saying, "You're capable."
After dinner, the sun was barely a yolk left and would soon set. The temperature began to drop slowly, and it was no longer so oppressive. Ning Xiaoxi felt like going out for a stroll again.
Sui Lanting pulled her back, "Xiao Xi, all the participating Celestial Masters and their relatives and friends have arrived today, and there have been several conflicts this afternoon, so let's not go out!"
Ning Xiaoxi nodded obediently, "I'll do whatever Sister Sui says." After saying that, she walked to the side, built a sandcastle, spread out some fur, and leaned back to look at the sky. The dark blue sky, the area of the egg yolk radiation had shrunk, and it would soon be dark.
