The waste she became the first array mage

Li Yirou used fire magic to slowly melt out a little space that could be moved slightly. When her spiritual consciousness dissipated, she found that the strange fire above was floating again. She felt bored.

The frozen things around her were basically the corpses of monsters, with only one or two holes, and she didn't know if they were eaten by the red-lined python.

Today the red-lined python went out to look for its children, leaving behind only the relatively fragile strange fire.

It seems that the monster has not tamed the strange fire, otherwise it would have taken it away with it.

Originally, with Li Yiru's fire spiritual root, it was difficult to melt the ice cave, and she might even be frozen here and lose consciousness like other monsters.

But since the beast soul tempered and repaired her spiritual roots, the effectiveness of Li Yiru's fire spells increased by several percent. Otherwise, she might not be able to withstand the biting cold brought by this strange fire.

Her spiritual consciousness explored within the ice layer of the ice cave. When the strange fire had not fully grown, it needed to be nurtured in the place where it was born, which was equivalent to its root.

After it gained a little intelligence, it was no longer restricted to one place and could wander outside for a while, just like other creatures would relax when they were tired of practicing.

Only after it is fully formed and the root of the strange fire is completely absorbed can it be completely unrestricted and move freely.

Or they may attach themselves to cultivators, monsters, etc., be refined by them, and hidden in their spiritual altars.

This little spark obviously has not fully formed, otherwise it would not be trapped in this cave.

Now it thought there was no danger and continued to wander outside. Li Yirou had to hurry up, otherwise when the red-lined python came back, it would be even more difficult to fight two against one.

We also try our best to prevent it from returning to the place where it was born. At this moment, it is like a crab that has just shed its shell and is relatively fragile. If it shrinks into the place where it was born, it will have more protection and spiritual power supply.

Judging from the previous actions of this strange fire, it did not want to recognize her as its master and be subdued by her. Otherwise, it would have fought with her, or had a few contacts with her, and directly put her into the ice layer as food. It was obvious that it looked down on her.

The strange fire was sensitive. Her cultivation was too low and her spiritual roots were mixed, so it was likely that it could sense it.

But Li Yiru insisted on forcing herself. She was so cold that she moved slowly, her mental strength was scattered, and even spiritual detection became difficult. But her heart was burning, this was a poisonous cold flame!

She wanted to find the root of its strange fire.

During the search, they finally found an anomaly: there were two small ice caves next to each other on the ice layer near the cave wall.

Those small ice caves were as big as rat holes, just big enough for the main body of the strange fire to enter and exit. The interior of the caves twisted and turned, extending in different directions.

It is somewhat clever, using the same little ice hole to hide where the actual roots are.

Li Yirou circulated spiritual energy through her body under the ice to minimize the impact of the cold air. She stuffed new spiritual stones into the space on the array plate to achieve the best effect and adjusted the position of the array flags.

She pinched her stiff fingers and silently chanted the spell in her heart, breaking! The ice layer was broken by her explosion method, and the ice crystals shattered and splashed. The small flame was startled in the air, and then she saw the human cultivator who had no power to resist just now appeared in the cave. Not good!

It sensed the unusual movement of spiritual energy and was about to drill into the small ice cave, but it was too late!

The cultivator had set up a formation to block out the 49 small holes that it had drilled with great effort. The formation was a protective formation. It tried to break through twice, but every time it punctured a little, the cultivator quickly repaired it with his spiritual power.

At the same time, she actually used the Soul-Exterminating Array, which was the opposite of the Soul-Gathering Array used by humans. It was usually used to trap monsters, but she didn't expect it could be used on this thing!

It dared to float in the cave because it was close enough to connect to the place where it grew up and obtain the endless spiritual power from the center of the earth. But now it was cut off by her!

The little flame panicked and continued to attack the formation. Li Yirou also continued to draw spiritual energy from the space to stabilize the formation and prevent it from returning to where it grew.

At the same time, her spiritual consciousness covered it, and she kept trying to imprint her spiritual consciousness on it and subdue it to become her strange fire.

The small flame refused to obey and tried to break through repeatedly but failed. It shook twice and seemed to be running out of spiritual power.

Li Yirou's spiritual consciousness changed. Sometimes she tried to brand it forcefully, and sometimes she was gentle like coaxing a child, trying to make it give up resistance and submit obediently.

Under her gentle offensive, the little flame conveyed a message to Li Yirou, "Let go, let's talk."

There is hope. Li Yirou finally relaxed a little and approached the small flame. The moment she stepped out of the formation, the small flame suddenly rushed towards the top of the ice cave like a meteor, where there was a passage connecting it to the place where it was born.

It used all its accumulated spiritual power to break through the formation! Its body successfully emerged from it.

Unexpected, little man! The ice layer of the passage above Huo Miao's head has opened, revealing a small passage again. At the moment when it was about to enter, an earth shield appeared in front of it.

It struggled to break through, and another earth shield appeared immediately. It tried to break through again, but it didn't believe it. It could hide in it quickly with such a short distance!

It is not easy to resist the shield formed by the earth spiritual power. It is a cold flame that is not afraid of water and has no resistance to ordinary fire spells. Only the earth can restrain it. I didn't expect that this cultivator could use it so smoothly.

Not even a trace of excess spiritual energy was wasted. The earth shield was only slightly larger than its body, which was just enough to suppress it.

Eh? Why is it getting further and further away from that small passage?

Not only did she use earth-based magic, she also used the power of suppression to continuously push its body downward, getting closer and closer to this human cultivator.

It didn't want to choose a human cultivator or a demon beast as its main target before it took shape, because it couldn't choose anyone with strong cultivation at this time. A small Qi-refining cultivator could control it, and it would not accept that!

The strange fire released poison, and dark blue mist spread in the ice cave. The thickest part floated straight towards Li Yiru's face. She used her spiritual energy as a shield, wrapping the flames and the poisonous gas they released into a large ball.

The innermost layer of the sphere is an earth shield that traps it inside, the middle layer is an aura shield that blocks its poisonous fog, and the outside is a concealment and stabilization array plus a soul-killing array, which finally exhausts all the spiritual power stored in the small flame.

Her spiritual consciousness branded it, and the little flame resisted desperately, but suddenly softened, "Let go of me... No, let go of me, I will go back to get my birth spiritual root, and then go with you."

Are you trying to fool me? Li Yirou said calmly, "You can take it after you recognize the master."

"You are a cultivator of the second level of Qi Refining, and you want me to recognize you as your master? Don't even think about it! If you have the guts, just kill me. I..." It was still making bold statements. How could it bear to kill this cultivator who had worked so hard...

No, why did the earth shield suddenly change its shape and start to extinguish the fire directly!
