This ice-blue light point, though it occupies a very small proportion, inexplicably made Yi Yun feel a bone-chilling cold.

Yi Yun was very familiar with this chill. When he broke through to the Qi Master realm and came down the mountain, the first time he saw the young men of the tribe refining the wild bones, he felt this chill.

The ice-blue light points floated silently in the sky, like ghosts.

Occasionally, a light point would detach from the cauldron and slowly fly around, then it would merge into the body of a young man tending the fire.

Just like a snowflake falling into water, this light point disappeared without a trace.

In Yi Yun's field of vision, he could no longer find this energy light point; it seemed to have been absorbed by the young man's body.

Yi Yun's heart skipped a beat. He vaguely realized that these ice-blue light points were likely the cause of the young men's cold injuries.

He observed quietly for a while and found that ice-blue light points would occasionally fly out and merge into the bodies of the young men, who were busy tending the fire and chopping wood, completely unaware.

Yi Yun became more and more convinced of his guess. The purple-red energy would not actively enter the human body; instead, it remained in the "Fire Water."

It seemed that the energy in this wild bone was divided into two types: one was beneficial to the human body, capable of transforming one's body and breaking through realms, the purple-red energy; the other was the ice-blue energy that could kill silently!

Toxic energy sounds mysterious, but it's not strange.

On Earth, there are many kinds of "toxic" energy. Without mentioning others, sunlight is "toxic." It can nurture all things only after being filtered and absorbed by the atmosphere. Otherwise, if the human body were directly exposed to sunlight in space, it would soon die.

Moreover, some of the most toxic substances on Earth are also "toxic" energy, such as the radioactive element polonium, which poisoned the former frequent news figure Arafat.

If polonium were used to kill, a little over one gram could kill ten million people, and just a few hundred grams could kill everyone on Earth, which is a million times more toxic than the famous **.

Yi Yun believed that these blue light points were probably similar in nature. Perhaps using "toxic" to describe them wasn't appropriate, but in any case, they could kill.

Just like how Earthlings suffer from cancer and other diseases when exposed to radioactive elements, in this vast wilderness, when the cold energy from wild bones enters the body, people would also suffer from "cold injuries" and die.

"Isn't it very dangerous for me to stand here?" Realizing this, Yi Yun's face turned grim. He was not just guarding a cauldron; he was guarding a nuclear reactor!

Upon careful consideration, many things in this world seemed completely different from Earth, but they had similarities.

In terms of energy, the most powerful energy on Earth can be used to make atomic bombs, **, and generate nuclear power.

But here, the most powerful energy can be used to create supreme experts!

These experts can also move mountains and seas, and destroy a city with a wave of their hand!

Both types of energy can cause the most terrible destruction, and if not used properly, they are toxic to ordinary people!

Fortunately, Yi Yun possessed a treasure that could control the energy of this world—the Purple Crystal.

"I hope the Purple Crystal can deal with this energy..."

Yi Yun tried to use the Purple Crystal to absorb the blue light points. Since they appeared in his field of vision, they should be absorbable by the Purple Crystal...

However, when he actually tried to absorb them, Yi Yun found the effect was not significant.

The Purple Crystal could indeed absorb the blue light points, but the absorption speed was very slow, far slower than absorbing the purple-red light points.

When the first blue light point was absorbed by Yi Yun, he took a deep breath and carefully extended his hand. He was a bit nervous, but on the other hand, even if the Purple Crystal couldn't absorb this energy, being hit by a single light point wouldn't kill him outright.

The blue light point merged into Yi Yun's body.

Yi Yun clearly felt that the light point flew into his fingertips like an ice crystal and then融入了他的血脉中。

“好冷!”

这是易云的第一感觉,这种感觉就像在大冬天,被一个调皮的孩子往自己领口里塞了一块冰碴子。

然而很奇怪,自己感觉这么强烈,那些壮丁竟然浑然未觉,他们的身体素质远不如自己,不可能比自己还耐寒。

看来是他们感应迟钝,感受不到这股彻骨的寒意,但他们的身体不会撒谎,在寒毒的入侵下,他们会慢慢失去生机,如果不是连氏部族高层发下来的红色丹丸,他们怕是已经死了吧?

这颗蓝色光点入体后,易云一直追踪它的去处,它是被紫晶吸收来的,最终,它也被紫晶分解吸收了,然后化成一股精纯的能量流,汇入了易云的血液中。

当这股能量流重新回到易云体内时,那彻骨的寒意已经消失了,取而代之的是易云所熟悉的凉意,流遍全身。

这就像山泉洗体一样,舒服无比。

这让易云愈发感慨,这紫晶不知道是什么级别的宝物,即便是对人体有害的能量,不管是这荒骨中的冰蓝色光点,还是连成玉下手时发出的元气,紫晶都能吸收,而且还能将其转化为最普通,却也是最精纯的能量流,滋养自己的身体。

其实易云不知道,在大荒,含有对人体有害能量的荒骨不在少数,而寒蟒荒骨只是其中比较低级的一种,只需低级荒天师就能将其化解了,对紫晶而言,化解这种程度的毒性,根本不算什么。

“小子,你在干嘛!!”

易云正潜心研究荒骨所含两种能量的区别时,突然听到一个壮丁对着自己大吼,在别人眼中,易云已经发呆好一会儿了。

有心成为这一群人“领班”的壮丁,自然看不过易云的偷懒行为了。

“呃……”易云憨憨一笑,“抱歉大叔,这斧头太沉了……”

“哼!”那壮丁一副早就知道你不行的样子,不忿地说道:“真不知道上头怎么想的,让你这毛小子来熬炼荒骨,不是拖老子后腿么!老子生的那个不争气的大头,跟你年龄差不多,力气却顶你两个!”

别说易云年龄的问题了,就算是在同龄孩子中,以前的易云也是身材瘦弱,力气偏小的那种。

在大荒中,人们都崇拜强者,那种皮肤粗糙黝黑,五大三粗的汉子,反而以此为傲。

像易云这种容貌清秀,细皮嫩肉的,都属于“病秧子”行列,根本不受待见。

“真是对不起啊大叔,我何止扯了你的后腿,都扯到你的蛋了,以后,我会尽量做得好一点。”

易云依旧笑得很憨,那壮丁干活还行,论反应本来就有些迟钝,一时间没弄明白易云说的是啥,他只是哼了一声,骂骂咧咧地去干活了。

易云也不紧不慢地劈着柴火,为了避免招来不必要的麻烦,他稍稍加快了速度,一根柴火……嗯,劈个十次八次,折腾个五分钟才劈开。

他毕竟要符合自己的身份。

可是与此同时,没有人看到,在大鼎中翻腾的那些紫红色能量,全像是乳燕投怀一般,向易云飞了过来。

至于那冰蓝色的能量,易云也在尽力吸收,易云觉得,自己如果把这些蓝色能量都吸收了,那周围的壮丁也不用被能量杀死了。

然而很可惜,紫晶对冰蓝色能量的吸收效果却并不显著,依旧有少量的能量渗入了周围十几个壮丁的身体中。

看到这一幕,易云也有些感慨,毕竟这些人虽然不讨喜,但也罪不至死,不过,自己救不了他们。

如果把真相公开,这些壮丁不但不会相信自己,怕是还会为了得到奖励的腌肉而向连成玉举报自己造谣生事,煽动民众造反。

这些人绝对干得出来,到时候易云的下场,只能用呵呵来形容了。

在这大荒中,弱者就要面对属于自己的苦难,这是没有办法的事情。

就像猪牛羊,它们没有过错,但却被人类圈养起来宰杀。

原因就是它们无能,而在大荒,无能就是过错!无能就无法决定自己的命运,无能就只能任人宰割!

The blue light point merged into Yi Yun's body.

Yi Yun clearly felt that the light point flew into his fingertips like an ice crystal and then merged into his bloodstream.

"So cold!"

This was Yi Yun's first feeling. It was like being in the middle of winter, and a mischievous child had stuffed a piece of ice down his collar.

However, strangely, the young men, who had much weaker physical constitutions than him, did not seem to notice anything. They couldn't possibly be more resistant to the cold than he was.

It seemed their senses were dull, and they couldn't feel the bone-chilling cold. But their bodies didn't lie; under the invasion of the cold poison, they would slowly lose their vitality. If not for the red pills distributed by the Lian Clan's higher-ups, they would have already died.

After the blue light point entered his body, Yi Yun tracked its path. It was absorbed by the Purple Crystal and eventually decomposed and absorbed by it, transforming into a pure energy stream that merged into Yi Yun's bloodstream.

When this energy stream returned to Yi Yun's body, the bone-chilling cold had already disappeared, replaced by a familiar coolness that spread throughout his body.

It was like being washed by mountain spring water, incredibly comfortable.

This made Yi Yun even more impressed. The Purple Crystal must be a treasure of unknown level. Even energy harmful to the human body, whether the ice-blue light points from the wild bones or the energy emitted by Lian Chengyu, could be absorbed and transformed into the most ordinary yet purest energy stream, nourishing his body.

In fact, Yi Yun didn't know that in the vast wilderness, there were many wild bones containing energy harmful to the human body. The Cold Python wild bone was just a relatively low-level one, which could be resolved by a low-level Wild Heaven Master. For the Purple Crystal, neutralizing this level of toxicity was no big deal.

"Kid, what are you doing!!"

As Yi Yun was deeply engrossed in studying the differences between the two types of energy in the wild bones, he suddenly heard a young man shouting at him. To others, Yi Yun had been staring blankly for quite a while.

A young man who wanted to be the "leader" of the group naturally couldn't stand Yi Yun's lazy behavior.

"Uh..." Yi Yun smiled awkwardly, "Sorry, Uncle, the axe is too heavy..."

"Hmph!" The young man, who had known Yi Yun was no good from the start, said resentfully, "I don't know what the higher-ups were thinking, letting a kid like you refine wild bones. You're just holding me back! My son, who is about your age, is twice as strong as you!"

Forget Yi Yun's age; even among his peers, he had always been thin and weak.

In the vast wilderness, people revered strength. Those with rough, dark skin and robust builds were proud of it.

Someone like Yi Yun, with a delicate and fair complexion, was considered a "sickly" type, and was not well-liked.

"I'm really sorry, Uncle. I'm not just holding you back; I'm holding you back by the balls. In the future, I'll try to do better."

Yi Yun still smiled awkwardly. The young man, who was good at work but slow in reaction, didn't understand what Yi Yun meant for a moment. He just huffed and went back to work, muttering to himself.

Yi Yun continued to chop wood at a leisurely pace. To avoid unnecessary trouble
