It turns out that the mountain fire rumored among the soldiers is not simple, it should be a spiritual fire. Because the situation was complicated and could not be extinguished by normal means, the cultivators in the coalition army were all transferred to the front to solve the problem.

This time, the five-city team under Peng Yuanzhi was repaired overnight. In the morning, he was told to go to the front to help and replace the other practitioners who had been exhausted the previous day.

After making preparations, the cultivators of the Five Cities traveled about a hundred miles and arrived at the location where the mountain fire blocked the way.

Along the way, Sun Xiang was still wondering, and it would take such a huge project to extinguish a fire. But when he arrived at the scene, he realized that he had indeed underestimated the fire.

This is a canyon where two mountains meet, and an asphalt highway passes through it. According to local practitioners, about three months ago, a strange flame gradually spread from the depths of the valley. But it's far away from the surrounding cities, so everyone doesn't take it seriously.

The problem is that this time, the route in the direction of Wucheng to help the coastal area happens to pass through here. If you take another road, not only will it be delayed, but there is also a viaduct that crosses the mountains in the middle of that road, which is damaged and cannot be repaired now.

The vanguard is blocked here, and there is little it can do. Sun Xiang and the others came closer to find that this was not a flame in the usual sense.

The color of this fire is very bright red, and the biggest feature is not the color, but the fact that the fire is solid!

The word solid seems to be out of bounds with flames, but the flames that can block the way ahead, filling the entire valley are really like transparent red jelly.

Above the flame, it does retain its burning form, and you can see the distortion of the air due to overheating. However, the normal flame is bright and extinguished, but this flame is stationary.

The wind can't blow, the water can't be extinguished, and you will get burned if you get close. The cultivators were really helpless at first about this strange flame. Later, someone had an idea, since this fire is a jelly-like entity, can it be cut directly?

Sure enough, it can.

A cultivator's aura attack can shatter the solid flame partially. As the fragments of these flames fall from the whole, they will gradually soften and eventually dissipate into normal flames.

But the strange thing is that the live ammunition of ordinary soldiers has no effect on this flame. When a bullet fires into a solid flame, it quickly slows down and then disappears into the eyes of the crowd.

No one dared to touch this flame with their bodies, because it was estimated that a bullet with metal would be a fate.

Things have developed to this point, and letting the cultivator open the way has become the only option. So the cultivators of the various cities turned into road-opening miners and bombarded the solid flames on the road. When the true element in the body is exhausted, he will retreat and replace the next group of people.

As for the solid flames on both sides of the road, they can't be taken care of for the time being, otherwise the amount of work will be too large. By the time the team on the Shinhe side took over, the passage in the flames had been opened for almost a kilometer. According to the map, this canyon is only a little more than two kilometers, so it can be said that the progress is halfway through.

If all goes well, it should be possible to completely break through the road by noon the next day.

Xia Cheng led more than 200 cultivators from Xinhe to take over the work of the people in Lucheng in front of him, and there happened to be Jiang Ping's acquaintance among them.

"Don't worry about the broken fire, but be careful not to touch the wall of fire. ”

The one who reminded him was a blue-clothed man named He Hong. He pointed to the walls of flames on both sides of the road, about ten meters high. The cultivators carved a passage from the solid flames, naturally leaving behind a wall of fire with pitted holes on both sides, like violently dug caves.

"And on the top, you should also be careful, flints may fall, and several people were injured in Tongshan City yesterday!"

After reminding him, the man complained: "It's really hot here, Jiang Ping, I'm one step ahead, you pay attention to safety." Come back to you for a drink. ”

He nodded to the others and packed up his things and left, and in the rear, he could receive a good amount of credit.

This is not a job for nothing, Peng Yuanzhi has already told everyone that anyone who participates in this work will be compensated by the New World Association with a reward of 1,000 credit points per person. It's not a lot of money, and it's not very dangerous, so no one is lazy.

The people in front of them have begun to start work with a bang, and it is not Sun Xiang's turn for the time being. The cultivators here in Xinhe all know that Sun Xiang is a great power to the heavens, who dares to order him to work.

Xiang Fei's attack power is not worth mentioning, and she was sent here as a medical worker, mainly to prevent someone from getting heat stroke. It's so hot in this passage, it's so hot! It's normal to think about it, after all, it can be said to be a passage of flames.

Fortunately, the Creature Society has distributed borneol, which is a good antipyretic elixir, and the amount is enough. Everyone put the ice chips under the tongue, but there is no need for a barbecue with high temperature for the time being.

Aside from the expressive heat, the scenery in this flame passage is stunning. The view of the valley could be seen through the solid flames, and although all the vegetation outside had been burned clean, there was no ugly black ash left on the rocks. Although there is no grass, the whole world is rosy red, and it is also a strange sight that is quite difficult to see.

Sun Xiang pinched his chin and pondered, unlike the cultivators who were immersed in hard work, he probably knew what this solid flame was, and he also guessed what the source of these flames was.

This is a very important treasure, and even for Sun Xiang, it is very valuable. He just wasn't sure if now was a good time to get it. This treasure is not easy to get your hands on, and it is very troublesome to get it. If he had a choice, he hoped to come back after he was done with the business at hand and be well prepared.

Instead of acting rashly like that.

Just as he was hesitating, a soldier from the Shinhe River ran up from behind. Although he also had ice chips in his mouth, because he did not have aura to protect his body, it was hot enough, and his face was blistered by the high temperature.

"Mr. Sun Xiang. He ran up, saluted first, and then explained his intention, "City Lord Pei's injuries have deteriorated, and City Lord Peng asked me to notify you to go over and take a look." ”

Hearing that the city lord Pei Guang was critically ill, several people were very anxious, so they planned to go together.

Sun Xiang stopped them and said, "You stay here, I'll go alone." ”

A question mark flashed on Xiang Fei's head, no matter what, he should also accompany the doctor.

But Sun Xiang insisted on leaving with the soldiers alone.

The soldier ran quickly in front of him in small steps, and quickly led Sun Xiang away from the passage of flames. But instead of heading towards where the Five Cities were stationed, he turned a corner and headed for the depths of the canyon.

"Mr. Sun Xiang, please come here. He turned around and smiled flatteringly, "City Lord Peng, they are waiting for you here." ”

Sun Xiang smiled without saying a word, and quickly followed.
