Chapter 797: Crater
A black mountain, very abruptly standing above the thousands of miles of wasteland.
Plumes of black smoke poured out from the top of the mountain, mixed with some fiery red lava from time to time, pouring down from the top of the mountain, gradually cooling down halfway through, turning iron black.
Xiao Fan and Chu Jiu held down the light and watched from afar.
"This is the Fire Dragon Cave? It's an active volcano! ”
Xiao Fan frowned slightly, and said in some surprise. I thought that the so-called Fire Dragon Cave was a big cave in the mountains, but who knew that according to the map, I ran all the way over, but I saw an active volcano here.
Unlike the active volcanoes seen on Earth, this active volcano is surrounded by an iron-gray wasteland for more than 1,000 miles, covered with a thick layer of volcanic ash, and no grass grows. It wasn't until thousands of miles away that patches of yellow-green began to appear.
In the middle of a large primeval forest, it feels extremely strange to suddenly appear such a barren land.
Even though they were so far apart, the two of them still had spiritual light protectors, and they also felt that the temperature around them was ridiculously high, and the heat was unbearable.
Chu Jiu laughed and said, "That's right, Huoyun Jiao is a natural fire attribute demon beast, if it's not this kind of hot place, it can't stay." Brother, don't say it, this Flame Mountain seems to have become the center of the Mighty Beast Wasteland, and the farther you go, the more high-level demon beasts there are. ”
Along the way, they have easily destroyed a lot of demon beasts that don't know whether they are alive or dead and take the initiative to find trouble. Many of them were seventh- and eighth-level high-level demon beasts, and even a ninth-level demon beast also hit their knife edge and was unceremoniously killed by the two.
Although Xiao Fan is not a murderous character, the demon beast takes the initiative to provoke. Xiao Zhenren is not pedantic enough to talk about benevolence, righteousness and morality with demon beasts.
"Maybe it's because of the transfer of sealing power."
Xiao Fan thought for a while and replied.
The sealing power of this great array. It seems to be constantly wandering, and the sealing power in some places is particularly strong. In other places, the sealing power was weaker, and those powerful demon beasts moved towards the places where the sealing power was weaker. After all, in places where the sealing power is weaker, it is easier for demon beasts to advance.
Right now, they clearly felt that the Great Array Seal near the volcano was the weakest.
"If that's the case, let's go into the Fire Dragon Cave, and we'll have to be careful. Where the sealing power is weakest, the demon beasts are also the most active. ”
Chu Jiu also said.
A fire-type demon beast hidden in the Fire Dragon Cave. There are really a lot, but it's not just Huoyun Jiao. In addition to Huoyun Jiao, there are definitely not a few other ninth-level fire-attribute demon beasts in this.
In the genus of the five elements, the attack power of the fire attribute demon beast is as strong as that of a metal demon beast.
"Let's go."
Xiao Fan nodded and said.
The antidote to the Broken Intestine Grass is only the last elixir Chi Lian Hua. Now that we've arrived here, there's no way out. Otherwise. Even if he walked out of the Beast Wasteland alive, his and Chu Jiu's lives were still in the hands of Old Monster Yin and Old Monster Sha.
The two of them flew straight towards the towering active volcano in front of them.
The further you go. The higher the temperature will be. However, for Xiao Fan, who had successfully broken through the "Jingyan Jue" to the second layer, such a little temperature was basically nothing.
"Boom" with a loud bang!
The two had just flown within a few dozen miles of the active volcano. The volcano erupted violently, billowing smoke and blazing lava. It spewed out hundreds of feet high, spreading out in all directions at a rapid speed.
Xiao Fan and Chu Jiu hurriedly increased the injection of mana into the body protection mask. The light mask instantly shone brightly, blocking out the smoke and ash that swept in. However, in the thick smoke, there was also a large mass of blazing magma, Xiao Fan shook the sleeves of his robe, and the yin and yang gossip mirror shot out, rising against the storm, turning into a few feet in size, radiating two kinds of light of yin and yang, shattering the blazing magma mass, turning into a little spark, scattered and splashed in all directions.
With their attainments, a little lava is naturally not in their eyes. Otherwise, it would be a joke to dare to break into the Fire Dragon Cave.
Xiao Fan's eyes shone with green light, and the eyes of the sky were running, and he immediately saw every aspect of the crater through the billowing smoke. The crater was huge, far larger than the largest crater he had ever seen on Earth, with a diameter of one or two hundred miles. In the middle of the crater, it is like a huge oven, and the fiery red lava is constantly tumbling and shining brightly.
The crater was far deeper than he expected, almost one or two thousand feet.
What opened Xiao Fan's eyes the most was that every time the volcano erupted, some fiery demon beasts would run out around the crater, opening their mouths and roaring towards the sky, devouring the dense fog and poisonous smoke and blazing lava magma that were absolutely deadly to ordinary people, as if they were regarded as a great supplement.
These demon beasts are also varied, the small ones are only the size of voles, and they are extremely vigorous, but the big ones are bigger than lions and tigers, with a body length of more than two zhang, shaking their heads and tails, opening their teeth and dancing claws, and they are extremely powerful.
The cliffs surrounding the crater are densely packed with numerous caves.
Undoubtedly, this is the Fire Dragon Cave.
The so-called Fire Dragon Cave is only a general reference, and it does not refer to a specific volcanic cave. As the most powerful demon beast of the volcano, Huoyun Jiao must be hidden in some cave deep in this volcano. It is not easy to find the hiding place of Huoyun Jiao from this dense cave.
Fortunately, they didn't have to find Huoyun Jiao, their goal was the mature Chilian Flower. As long as Chi Lianhua can be found, Xiao Fan and Chu Jiu have already discussed, turn around and leave, and never fight Huo Yunjiao's idea.
It's really such a powerful demon beast, it's not something they can touch lightly.
In the Thousand Souls Abyss, if it weren't for the fact that the ghost shadow suddenly had a spiritual intelligence, and what deal he wanted to make with them, I was afraid that he might not be able to exit from the underground glass world safely.
Especially Chu Jiu, who was constantly besieged by thousands of fog apes and yin ghosts, as long as he thought of that situation, his scalp was numb. As long as Xiao Fan restrained the ghost shadow a little longer, he would really hurt the origin.
Chu Jiu made it clear that the exercises he cultivated were inherently easier to break through the bottleneck than other exercises, and for others, the bottleneck of the Yuan Infant Stage, which could only be broken through by luck, was far less difficult for him. As long as the environment is stable and there are a large number of pills to cooperate, break through the bottleneck of the late stage of Jindan, and set foot in the realm of the Yuan Infant Stage, there are at least three or four percent certainty.
Such a big chance, even if it is not as miraculous as Huoyun Jiao's Inner Dan, but it is not far behind, Chu Jiu has no need to risk falling for the sake of Huoyun Jiao's Inner Dan.
His top priority now is to assist Xiao Fan in refining the antidote to the Broken Intestine Grass, and after detoxification, get out of the Beast Wasteland alive, and then find a way to get out of the control of the old monster in Sha, find a suitable place, break through to the Yuan Infant Stage as much as possible, and then return to the Nanzhou Continent to recapture the one that originally belonged to him.
Of course, Xiao Fan is not as light and breezy as Chu Jiu, and he is still more eager for Huoyun Jiao Neidan. He already had half a Lei Peng Neidan in his body, and he benefited a lot. Although Huoyun Jiao can't be compared to the Heaven and Earth Holy Spirit like Silver Wing Lei Peng, its Inner Dan is also a rare good thing.
However, compared to Chi Lianhua, he can still distinguish which is more important and which is lighter.
The eruption of the volcano lasted for more than an hour, and the tumbling and boiling crater calmed down a little, and the billowing smoke and black fog also became much thinner, and the figures of Xiao Fan and Chu Jiu appeared in the air again.
Without a thorough view of the crater, they did not land recklessly.
Finally, the two of them pressed the light and slowly descended towards the crater, their protective shields fully open, and they were on guard.
As soon as I approached the black cliff of the crater, there was a loud croaking sound, and I saw that in the cave on the top of the cliff, hundreds of dark red strange birds flew out, their bodies were about five or six feet in size, their wings were spread, more than two feet long, and their bodies were full of fire, without the slightest feather, as if they were completely transformed into spirits of flames. He lunged viciously at the two of them.
It's hard to tell whether these strange birds are flesh and blood or fire elves.
The two of them didn't dare to slack off, Xiao Fan raised his hands, the silver arc between his ten fingers flashed, and countless delicate arcs flew out, hitting the dozen or so firebirds flying in front with incomparable accuracy. With the sound of thunderclaps, the dozen or so firebirds burst open one after another, turning into countless flames and falling to the ground one after another.
At the same time, Chu Jiu was not idle, a flying sword shot out, slashing a gorgeous rainbow in mid-air, and unceremoniously cut more than ten firebirds in two.
These firebirds look menacing, but in fact, the spiritual power fluctuations on their bodies are just equivalent to those of monks in the Qi training period, and naturally neither of them will exert their full strength.
"It's flesh and blood."
After killing the first batch of firebirds, Chu Jiu shouted.
Xiao Fan nodded in agreement and said, "Yes, it is indeed flesh and blood." However, after living in the land of fire for a long time, the fire attribute spiritual power has been fused with their flesh and blood. Perhaps the higher the level of the demon beast, the more refined the fire attribute spiritual power, and the more complete the transformation of the flesh and blood. ”
But one thing is for sure, the spiritual intelligence of these fire-attribute demon beasts is not higher than that of other demon beasts in the slightest, obviously seeing that their companions were killed by Xiao Fan Chu Jiuqing, the subsequent strange birds didn't care, they just croaked, rushing forward one after another, their eyes were red, full of bloodlust and greed.
It seems that these firebirds not only like to devour the spiritual power of the fire attribute, but also like to devour the flesh and blood of other animals.
With a flick of Xiao Fan's fingers, the earth demon puppet turned into a violent wind and flew out, instantly turning into a six-foot-tall earth giant, wielding a pair of earthy yellow giant hammers, rolling up a torrent of wind, and in an instant, countless firebirds were swept in, twisted into a ball of flame minced meat.
There was still a long way to go, and Xiao Fan didn't want to waste too much mana on these low-level demon beasts.
The Earth Demon Puppet had already re-refined several mid-level Earth Spirit Stones on the way, and now that it was full of spiritual power, it was a good helper to deal with these low-level demon beasts.
In a short time, hundreds of firebirds were slaughtered. (To be continued......)
