As he got closer to the volcano, the sand on the ground turned black, as if it had been roasted in a fire for countless years.

The scorching heat left no other plants to grow, leaving only oddly shaped scorched stones and a few pieces of dry grass that had long since died.

A moment later, Qin Ming arrived at the foot of the volcano, and he could feel a slight tremor on the ground from time to time, and the epicenter was this volcano.

The extremely dense fire element enveloped the surroundings, and at the same time, Qin Ming also felt a large amount of spiritual energy gushing out from the top of the volcano.

"There shouldn't be any spirits here that will survive for long. Qin Ming thought to himself and began to try to climb this volcano.

The outer layer of the volcano is covered in a large amount of charcoal and ash, and every step is like stepping on it as if you are stepping on it in a furnace.

Halfway through, Qin Ming had to invoke his aura to protect himself.

The closer he got to the crater above, the hotter it became, and Qin Ming climbed for an hour before reaching the top of the volcano.

A burst of heat blew in his face, causing the hair on his body to curl up.

Stand on the edge of the crater and look in.

A large amount of magma is boiling under the volcano, and occasionally a few pieces of broken rock fall and splash a little, as if they are about to erupt at any moment.

"What a rich aura, that's!" Qin Ming observed the inner wall of the volcano and found that there were many fiery red and bright pebbles embedded on it.

These pebbles are unusual at first glance, most of them are exotic treasures, but the question is how he can go down and get them.

It is too dangerous to climb down the inner wall of the volcano, because the rocks on the inner wall can fall off at any time, and if you accidentally fall down, you will not be able to survive at all.

The pebbles are located halfway up the volcano, a short distance from the crater.

After thinking about it, Qin Ming shook his head in his heart, feeling that the possibility of success was too low and the risk was too great.

After walking along the crater for a while, suddenly something else was discovered.

There was even a waterhole at the top, not far from the crater.

The bubbling water vapor kept coming out, and it was strange that the waterhole showed no signs of drying up in such a scorching place.

Qin Ming's spiritual power was released and he sensed.

I found that the water in the pool also contains a rich aura, the surface of the water is pale milky white, and the surrounding volcanic ash has not polluted the water here.

It's unclear why this waterhole can exist on top of a volcano, but it seems that the water has some wonderful use.

Qin Ming reached out and touched the surface of the water with the sole of one foot, and found that the aura in the water quickly merged into the sole of his foot.

The next moment, a hot heat poured into his body, and began to stir and act on his whole body.

Seeing this, his eyes lit up suddenly, and he submerged the entire ball of his foot into the water.

This heat suddenly became a little stronger.

Then he put his feet in together, and the heat was still acceptable, so he soaked half of his body into it.

At this time, the heat that poured into his body was even stronger, and he looked around to see that there was no movement, and then gritted his teeth, Qin Ming jumped directly into it.

The whole body was soaked, and a large amount of heat poured in, making Qin Ming feel a tingling sensation everywhere in his body.

Fortunately, he was barely able to endure it.

The waterhole is not deep, and Qin Ming can still leak out of it if he jumps into it.

The reason why he endured the scorching heat in this pool was because he found that this heat could temper his body and strengthen his bones.

I have to say, it's a good place.

The surrounding red mist surrounds the waterhole, and from time to time a faint white droplet will condense in the air and fall into the pool.

While Qin Ming was soaking in the hot springs, he would also pay attention to the movement in the volcano on the side.

He was a little worried that the volcano would erupt at any time, and he was not confident that he would be able to withstand the baptism of magma.

This hot spring is not safe.

After a day, Qin Ming basically got used to the heat in the pool, and the tingling sensation on his body gradually became slighter.

After three days, the thermal quenching effect of the waterhole gradually faded.

By the fifth day, the quenching effect of this heat on Qin Ming had become minimal.

Compared to five days ago, you can see that the waterhole has become much clearer, milky and lighter, and although the water temperature is still the same, the aura contained in it is much thinner.

After not feeling any quenching effect, Qin Ming crawled out of the waterhole, covered in water vapor.

Shaking off the water on his body, Qin Ming felt the changes after refining himself.

The most obvious feeling is that the qi and blood have become particularly vigorous, and there is a faint layer of fluorescence emitted all over the body.

There is still a lot of aura left in the bones and flesh, which will slowly dissipate over time.

The wounds on his body, large and small, that had not yet healed, had fully recovered after soaking for all these days.

For the past five days, the bottom of the volcano has been moving, but there is no sign of eruption.

After a complete circle around the top of the volcano, there was nothing to be found except for the waterhole that was no longer useful to him, only the pebbles embedded in the inner wall of the volcano.

Just as he was about to abandon the pebbles and go down the mountain, he suddenly heard some movement.

When I looked up, I saw several giant lizards with fiery red bodies slowly crawling up.

Name: None

Spirit: Red Burnt Dragon

Combat power rating: fifth-order high-grade

Growth potential: fifth-order high-grade

There are a total of five red monitor lizards, all of which are of the upper grade of the fifth order.

Contrary to Qin Ming's expectations, there were really other spirits like him who climbed to the top of this volcano with the scorching heat.

The monitor lizards looked a little ferocious, and their scarlet eyes stared at him tightly.

Clearly, they were targeting him.

They are both fifth-order upper grades, but the other party has five, if Qin Ming is replaced, most of them will suffer losses and only escape.

But now that his physique has been greatly tempered and strengthened, he does not have the capital to fight.

The monitor lizard let out a high-pitched roar, its voice sharp and strange.

Qin Ming's body fell slightly, his spiritual power locked on to the other party, and taking advantage of the fact that the five monitor lizards did not surround him, he immediately took the lead in launching an attack.

Rushing towards the other party, the speed was much faster than before, and he rushed in front of a monitor lizard in two steps.

The big claw slapped on the head, and the monitor lizard didn't even react in time, and its body was slapped over.

Sharp claws slashed across the fiery carapace, shattering and bleeding all over the ground.

The monitor lizard let out a miserable scream, but Qin Ming didn't intend to let it go just like that, his two forepalms pressed the other party's lizard head, and when he opened his mouth, a spiritual aura light cluster was condensed.

The light continued to glow, and suddenly turned into a pillar of light and blasted up, so close that the huge power directly pierced the lizard's head, and even the rocks below it also shattered.

In less than three seconds, he had killed a monitor lizard spirit of the same rank.

Seeing this, the other four monitor lizards roared one after another and bit towards Qin Ming.
