Chapter Ninety-Six: The Three Tribulations of Flame
A raging river of magma flowed through it.
The rock wall tightly clamped the river channel, and the lava river, which was hundreds of miles wide, baked the rock wall red, and the rock wall on both sides had been tempered into a red glazed state by the high temperature of magma for countless years.
Hard, clean, mortal power cannot be damaged at all.
Next to the river that I don't know how long it is, there is suddenly a gorge with a width of more than 100 zhang on the rock wall.
A small stone mountain with a thick and simple shape is hundreds of zhang high, the base is a hundred zhang in circumference, and the pestle is upright in the middle of the gorge. On the stone mountain, three quaint Zhong Dingwen can be faintly seen, which is the three words of 'Shi Dare to be'.
Because of the existence of Shi Kangdang, there are only two gaps on the left and right sides of the stone mountain.
The hot magma roared into the mouth of the gorge, but it became demure and gentle in front of this stone mountain.
Not a trace of magma could pass through Shi Dangdang, an invisible force field enveloped the entire gorge, and drops of red, transparent, crystal-like juice seeped out of the magma river and flowed down the gorge into a clear and high-temperature river.
These transparent saps extracted from magma by Shi Dangdang were named 'Magma Stone Milk' by the elders of the Yan family.
It is hot, hot, but pure in nature, without any impurities and toxins mixed in the magma.
The magma milk flowed along the passage behind the gorge with high temperatures, and after traveling for more than ten miles, it came to a flat land with a radius of more than ten miles.
In the roughly triangular flatland, the soil is reddish, and small crystals can be faintly seen mixed in the soil.
Lava grasses and other strange primordial grasses are densely planted here, and occasionally hot winds blow from the direction of the magma river, and tens of thousands of lava grasses sway with the wind, and drops of 'dewdrops' shimmer with charming light.
At the end of this flat land, a towering rock wall is inlaid with large red crystals. These crystals absorb the raging heat currents in the air, constantly emitting a dazzling red light.
The red light shone on this small flat land, and the Yuan grass planted on the flat land was also a fire attribute Yuan grass, and the color was also red.
This flat land is like a hell of fire, red, and every inch of the land exudes a heat that makes people restless.
Garu gasped and crawled out of the river of magma milk, the heat burning all the dark red scales of his body turning red, and the scales became almost translucent.
The huge heat continued to seep into his body from outside his body, nourishing his internal organs and suppressing his hunger a lot.
Standing on the river beach and jumping a few times, shaking off the magma stone milk attached to his body, Galu stroked his shriveled belly, his stomach made a 'gurgling' sound, and the hunger that had just been suppressed rose again.
Then the unbearable hunger spread like wildfire, burning Garu's eyes red.
He looked back at the magma and stone milk river, and his ninety-nine subordinates, ninety-nine fire crocodiles more than two meters tall were lazily soaking in the hot river, one by one softly snorting in joy or pain.
The fire crocodile is a type of crocodile, born close to flames, with thick skin and thick flesh, and extremely resistant to flames and absorbent.
Ordinary fire crocodiles can enter the lava for a short time, and fish for all kinds of strange precious gems and ores.
This kind of magma milk is not as high as magma, and it contains more pure flame energy, Galu and his men can soak in it for a long time.
Soaking magma stone milk can quench the scale armor, making the scale armor on the body harder, and can increase the strength, the current Galu and his men, any one of them can easily deal with seven or eight fire crocodile warriors of the same race.
Of course, soaking magma stone milk isn't just about growing your cultivation...... More importantly, to quell unbearable hunger pangs.
"Eat meat!" said Garu, grimacing a rudimentary piece of iron armor and striding towards the debris storage cavern carved out of the rock wall at the end of the level.
The hunger pangs made Garu extremely irritable, and he ran much faster than usual.
He strode into the storage cavern and kicked a shriveled animal skin bag away. The mouth of the animal skin bag was loosened, and a piece of dried meat that had long been dry like firewood suddenly fell.
Half a foot long, such a piece of jerky as a child's wrist.
Garu pressed his belly with one hand and glanced at the huge storage cavern with a gloomy face.
It's gone, it's empty, it's clean, it's the last piece of jerky in the entire Yuanxue storage cave.
Galu cursed, opened his mouth, and swallowed the jerky in one gulp. The hunger in his belly subsided for a moment, but as if the soup had stopped boiling, the flame of hunger immediately became higher...... Garu walked out of the cave with his hands on his belly and a gloomy face.
Subconsciously, Galu's hideous and terrifying crocodile head looked over to the other side of the flat ground.
There was a blurry red light swaying, and under a small tree about three meters high, a girl who was born white and pure, although not very beautiful, but had a very clean temperament, and was as clean as a blue crystal soaked in clear water.
"I really want to take a bite. Garu gritted his teeth, saliva dripping from the corners of his mouth.
Damn Warsword City...... That group of violent madmen of the Yan family, they always forgot to send supplies to Yuanxue here. Again and again and again, again and again......
Although the fire crocodile can manage a full meal for a month, when was the last time supplies were delivered?
It was half a year ago, right?
The fresh meat that was delivered that time has turned into jerky...... A batch of supplies should have arrived three months ago, but the bastards in Warknife City, they forgot about it again......
"Hungry...... It was as if gnawing off her thighs. Galu's miserable green eyes flickered from side to side, and dangerous thoughts kept popping up in his head.
However, he was a little hesitant.
As a vassal clan of the Yan family, the status of the fire crocodile is much higher than that of those slaves, but compared to the direct clan of the Yan family, they are also objects that can be slaughtered at will.
The Yan family's group of fighting maniacs, whoever dares to provoke their status and majesty, the consequences are very terrible.
This girl seems to have quite a status in the Yan family.
At least five months ago or four months ago, when she came to this Yuan Acupoint, she was actually personally escorted by the two elders of the Yan family.
"Hungry...... Why don't you discuss it with her and gnaw on one of her arms?" Galu was so hungry that his eyes turned black for a while, and he looked at the Yuan grass planted on the flat ground again, and his saliva kept dripping.
Yuancao is also edible, and eating Yuancao is more hungry than eating meat.
But there are several yuan grasses here, and how many roots each kind of yuan grass has are well recorded. If there is one less, Galu will be whipped with a hundred lashes, if there are ten less, Galu will be whipped with a thousand lashes, and if there are more than ten Yuan grasses, Galu will die.
With his hands shriveled in his belly, Garu whistled to the men in the distance who were soaked in magma and stone milk.
A dozen or so fire-crocodile warriors, who were also dizzy with hunger, crawled out slowly, and they didn't bother to put on their cumbersome armor, and one by one they came to Galu's side with heavy steps.
A dozen fire crocodiles sneakily glanced at the girl standing under the small tree, and at the same time laughed a few times sneakily and meaninglessly, and then Galu shook his head: "We are in good faith...... Hungry, go outside and get some rats to nibble ......"
A group of fire crocodiles nodded weakly, drooped their hands, wagged their tails, and shook their heads and followed Galu to the Yongdaokou not far away.
This cave is very secretive, and there is an extremely complex array of pits and karst caves outside.
There will be no outsiders coming in here, only the cute little rodents will come out one by one. I'm so hungry that I can't help it, these fat little mice or something, it's also a delicious meal......
"Ever since we were transferred here, we don't seem to have had much to eat. Galu complained in a low voice as he walked: "Next time an elder of the Yan family comes, I must tell them to let someone else come...... I just don't want to ......."
Wu Tie led the main battle team and walked quietly in the corridor.
There was a blazing wind blowing in front of him, and the slag that had just grown on Wu Tie's head was burned again, and the thick hair of the iron dwarf and gray dwarf warriors around him also began to roll up, one by one like a poodle.
There was a surge of red light ahead, and majestic heat was tumbling in the air.
The heat in the air was too violent, Wu Tie's invisible force field was stirred up, he could only sense the movement of more than ten meters around him now, and if the invisible force field was released outward, it would be washed into chaos by the heat.
The more you go inward, the more the invisible force field is pressed by the heat wave.
None of the group said a word, but just clenched their weapons and kept moving forward.
Suddenly, in a wave of red light and heat ahead, more than a dozen weak fire crocodiles suddenly turned out from the corner of the corridor.
Wu Tie and his party were stunned, and Galu and his party were also stunned.
Before Wu Tie could think of what to say, Galu had already pounced and roared loudly at Wu Tie: "Meat, did you send meat? Bastard, you are at least three months late...... Three months!"
The hungry Galu completely ignored the others behind Wu Tie, he stood in front of Wu Tie, opened his big mouth and spat at Wu Tie: "Where's the meat?
A stone giant standing behind Wu Tie raised his sledgehammer without saying a word, and with a 'boom', the huge iron hammer shattered the air, like a giant steam forging hammer, and slammed into Galu's head.
With a loud bang, Galu's eyes almost spurted out of his sockets, and two blood arrows spurted out of his ears, he looked at Wu Tie blankly, and muttered, "Ah, you are not ...... of the Yan family"
The two iron dwarves beside Wu Tie shot at the same time.
The huge axes in their hands slashed out two cold rays of light and slashed at Galu's body.
The axe roared, and Galu's body spewed out two high-temperature blood arrows, which flew backwards from the heavy slash, and two deep blood marks were broken in his chest. But if you look closely, his chest is only bleeding from the skin, and the wound is not as deep as he imagined.
The crimson scale armor on his body was more than an inch thick, and the scale armor was more tough than the two iron dwarves could have imagined.
The vigorous slashing of the two iron dwarves actually only caused a little injury to Garu.
Galu hit the ground hard, and then he shook his head, and pressed his bulging eyeballs down with both hands, forcing them back into their sockets. He shuddered to his feet—no one could tell, his body was shaking and shaking, whether it was because of injury or hunger.
The stone giant behind Wu Tie grunted in dismay.
In a hurry, although he didn't use too much strength for the hammer just now, the natural power of the stone giant was there, and the hammer in his hand weighed two or three thousand catties.
With this hammer, even a giant limestone lizard will definitely have its head shattered.
Galu seems, just a little concussion in the brain?
He actually, without much damage?
"What a hard head...... Stone Giant looked at Galu blankly: "I have killed the fire crocodile, one hammer at a time...... Why is your head so strong?"
Garu blinked his eyes vigorously, and two lines of blood hung down from the corners of his eyes.
He looked at Wu Tie blankly, and then shouted hoarsely, "Enemy...... Enemy...... Living enemies...... Meat!"
His terrible appetite turned into a raging flame erupted from Galu's miserable green eyes, and he roared and opened his teeth and claws at Wu Tie for a while, then turned around and walked away with a dozen men behind him, striding towards Yuan.
As he ran, Galu shouted, "Come on, brothers, there's a lot of meat delivered to the door! kill them......"
While running, Galu roared: "Hurry up, grab two handfuls of Yuan grass and eat them, eat and drink enough, them!"
Galu wasn't stupid, at least among the fire crocodiles, he was cunning and witty.
He rushed back to the Yuan Cave with his guys, pounced on the nearest Yuan Grass planting field, grabbed a handful of lava grass and stuffed it into his mouth. Gobbling it up, the heat surging in his body, the shriveled stomach and intestines immediately swelled, and the strength returned to his body.
There is an invasion of foreign enemies, no matter how much Yuan grass Galu and his men spend, it must be counted on the enemy!
As long as you can repel the enemy, these lost Yuan grass...... They have merit......
Not only is there no merit, but it can also make up for it well, how cost-effective is this?
Who told you not to bring meat three months late?
Galu grunted justifiably as he gulped down the Yuan Grass.
Under that small tree, the girl of the Yan family was also alarmed, she turned around suddenly, and with a shock of her hands, two strange-shaped scimitars slipped out of her sleeves and were tightly held in her hands.
"What's going on? How can there be enemies here? Garu? What are you doing?"
The girl took two steps back sharply, and subconsciously glanced at the small tree behind her, and the three fist-sized crimson fruits on the small tree.
The fruit seemed to be condensed by flames, and a large area of fire was rising around it.
Outside the peel, three twisted golden lines of fire loomed.
The Flame Tribulation Fruit, this is the highest-grade Yuan Energy Plant in the Yan Family's Yuan Cave, and it is for them that the girl has been waiting here for so many days.
"You're here for the Flame Tribulation Fruit?" The girl's face became much gloomy: "How can outsiders know the exact location of this Yuan Acupoint?"
"Someone, collusion with foreign enemies......" The girl bit her lip stubbornly, and her originally ruddy lips turned white for a while.
