    Boom!

    There was a violent explosion in the distance.

    Ning Xiaohui raised her head and subconsciously looked far into the western sky.

    Sure enough, a crack appeared in the light shield to the west, and the three fire-walking serpents penetrated and crashed to the ground one after another.

    The battle on the ground spiraled into action.

    Ning Xiaohui quickly turned her head to look at the gourd-shaped fireplace in front of her.

    During this period of time, she had been so irritated by Ning Clumsy that she was going crazy, and had been desperately trying to earn merits.

    At this time, Ning Xiaohui had obviously lost a large amount of weight, her eye sockets were deeply sunken, and she was topped with two large dark circles under her eyes, and at a glance, it was clear that she was in an extremely exhausted state both physically and mentally.

    But Ning Xiaohui’s eyes were glowing, her eyes were filled with blood, and a sense of madness flowed from her every move.

    Vertigo suddenly struck.

    Ning Xiaohui sat cross-legged on the ground, her upper body swaying for a moment and then spiraling to stabilize.

    “This is a critical moment for refining, you can’t slack off!” She hurriedly took out the elixir, directly uncorked the pill bottle and poured it into her mouth.

    She swallowed five or six of the pills in one gulp.

    As the elixir entered her stomach, Ning Xiaohui’s spirit surged, feeling as if she were a leaky ball of skin as the medicinal power filled her exhausted body again.

    “Hang in there, melt the materials out of this furnace and I’ll have another five merits in my account!”

    Ning Xiaohui knew that her first-mover advantage would continue to shrink with the passage of time, so she acted frantically.

    She did her best to use her natural talent, Ice Jade Hands, to repair large and small structures.

    Such quests reward feats that are often substantial.

    However, the frequent use of natural resources was too much for Ning Xiaohui to handle.

    So in between times, she would come between the Gourd Furnace Forests to pick up some smithing tasks.

    There were very many furnaces in the Lava Immortal Palace, and according to grade, they were divided into four levels: copper, iron, silver, and gold.

    The gourd-shaped furnaces were spaced some distance apart from each other and arranged in an orderly manner. From afar, it was a huge forest of gourds.

    The Furnace is different from the Healer, the Five Elements Cannon Tower, and the Point Guard, which are all important places.

    The furnace was open to the general public, and even outsiders who did not have the status of a trial disciple were able to be here and easily receive the task of refining weapons.

    Ning Xiaohui sat cross-legged in front of the furnace, the blazing waves of air coming in waves, blowing the tips of her hair up and out, making it withered and yellow.

    She stared deathly at the furnace in front of her, not relaxing for a moment.

    “I’ve got a hundred and twenty-seven merits.”

    “Thirty merits short of the position of Historian’s Pavilion, I will be able to acquire the position of Historian’s Pavilion.”

    “Ning Xiaohui, put up a fight with all your might! Let Ning Clumsy’s gang take a good look and appreciate the power of the Ning Clan’s main vein.”

    “This time you can only win, never lose!”

    Ning Xiaohui cried out in her heart.

    Ning Xiaohui was ostracized and driven away by the crowd and had to enter the Immortal Palace in body.

    Being in this situation now made her feel: like she was being pushed to a cliff, and for once, there was no way back.

    The shame she once felt, the pressure of Ning Clumsy catching up behind her, the expectations of the Jindan Ancestor, all of these factors piled up on top of her, causing Ning Xiaohui to burst forth, with the strongest fighting spirit she had ever felt!

    Lava Immortal Palace, main hall.

    On the throne, the dragon soft-shelled fire spirit spun around anxiously.

    Its gaze pierced through the long sky, watching Ning Xiaohui and also Ning Clumsy.

    Seeing Ning Clumsy lying on the bed huffing and puffing, the dragon soft-shelled turtle Fire Spirit grumbled, “Don’t sleep, it’s on fire and you still have the heart to sleep?”

    “Look at Ning Xiaohui, how hard she works, how desperate she is!”

    Of course, it didn’t dare to speak these words directly to Ning Clumsy.

    Just talking to myself and venting my emotions.

    The dragon soft-shelled fire spirit was really in a hurry!

    It might have been fine not knowing Ning Xiaohui’s true progress, but on the contrary, the dragon soft-shelled fire spirit had been keeping an eye on her.

    Whenever it saw that, time and time again, Ning Xiaohui was making progress, time and time again, getting closer to the position of Shi Ji Pavilion, it was doubly tormented.

    “This old man, Zhu Xuanzou, is also inept, going so far as to secretly use Ning Clumsy to irritate Ning Xiaohui.”

    After the dragon soft-shelled turtle fire spirit had spun around a dozen times, it finally couldn’t hold back, took a deep breath, and took the initiative to contact Ning Clumsy.

    “Young master, young master ……,” the dragon soft-shelled turtle fire spirit tried to lower its voice as much as possible, pretending to call out weakly and affectionately.

    Ning Clumsy hadn’t been asleep for long when he was woken up.

    He opened his tired eyes and said breathlessly, “Dragon Soft-shelled Fire Spirit, has your condition gotten a little better?”

    The dragon soft-shelled turtle fire spirit smiled bitterly, “No, young master, my condition is worsening every moment, but the situation is too urgent now.”

    “I have to spell out my best to warn you about that Ning Xiaohui! She’s a huge threat.”

    “She’s only about thirty merits short of acquiring the lowest position in the Historian’s Pavilion!”

    “Young master, you must finish her off as soon as possible!!!”

    Ning Clumsy sighed, instantly stating that he was also distressed and in a difficult situation.

    “Ning Xiaohui is definitely going to stop it.”

    “But I didn’t have a chance!”

    “The Jindan Ancestors are nearby, and that Zhu Xuanzui is always watching me, he’s suspecting me.”

    Ning Clumsy pacified the dragon softshell turtle fire spirit, “There are still more than thirty feats left, Ning Xiaohui is still a ways away from success.”

    “We’ve got a little bit of time before it’s too late.”

    “At this time, one must be calm and look for the right moment!”

    The dragon soft-shelled turtle Fire Spirit was so anxious that she jumped on the throne, “Calm down, how do you want me to calm down! Aiyaa, you’re really hurrying me to death.”

    Of course, this passage, too, it did not dare to speak to Ning Clumsy, and could only vent in secret.

    Ningæ‹™ took the opportunity to instruct the dragon softshell turtle fire spirit to keep a close eye on Ning Xiaohui.

    At the same time, he asked the dragon soft-shelled fire spirit about the questions the latter hadn’t gotten around to answering last time.

    The Dragon Softshell Fire Spirit had no choice but to tell Ning Clumsy that his guess was right.
