Chapter 70: The Thousand Connected Volcanoes
It's the middle of March, and the spring flowers are blooming.
The morning breeze blew from the Far East, swept through the vibrant wild grasslands, and gently brushed the faces of the three men. After many days of servant dust, the destination finally came into view.
Looking far to the east, but the end is hazy, shrouded in clouds of smoke, and some "mounds" of different sizes loom in the middle, which are volcanoes.
"Hurry up, hurry, it'll be there in another hour. The girl turned around excitedly and shouted, and immediately turned into a red shadow and flew out.
The black-clothed young man followed silently, and Bian Yao naturally fell behind without a doubt, but his face was obviously excited.
The Qianlian Volcanic Group is a treacherous area with a radius of five or six hundred miles, and there are nearly 1,000 volcanoes, half of which are extinct volcanoes, and a small half are in the dormant period, and there are less than 100 active volcanoes.
More than an hour later, the three of them arrived safely on the outskirts of the volcano. Slowing down, they followed a wide, clear stream through the green valley towards the nearest volcano, with its faint smoke coming from the nearest mountain pass.
The volcano is about 200 zhang high, and the mountainside is lush and completely covered in greenery. All kinds of birds rise and fall from time to time, and foxes and wild boars are also seen. The three of them kept moving and jumping among the green bushes and wild trees, and after about a moment, they successfully reached the top of the volcano.
The top of the volcano is concave like a bowl, forming a semicircular crater lake that is neither large nor small. The surface of the lake is steaming, and through the mist, you can faintly see that the center of the lake is constantly churning and bubbling. The closer you get to the shore, the more sparse and yellowish the vegetation becomes.
"Why is this volcano water?" the girl said as she looked at the lake in front of her, frowning and wondering.
"I also thought there would be a fire coming out of the top of the mountain. Bian Yao raised his eyes and looked at it, showing a little disappointment on his face.
"It's not fire! it's lava!" the girl corrected.
Bian Yao suddenly jumped down from the rock and ran quickly towards the shore of the lake, "I'll go see how hot the water in this lake is." ”
"Slow down, don't get burned in there!" cried the girl with a laugh, and ran after him to the lake. The black-clothed young man stared at the lake, glanced back and forth on the surface of the lake a few times, and then moved to follow.
Bian Yao rushed to the lake, bent down and squatted, stretched out his right hand and slowly approached the lake. As soon as his fingers touched the lake water, he immediately retracted his hand and kept shaking it, making a "hissing" sound in his mouth, obviously burned.
"Haha, you can tell that the lake is very hot after a few glances! The girl stood next to her and leaned back and fell back laughing, very happy!
Bian Yao rolled his eyes, completely pretending not to hear her, stood up and looked around, and then picked up a few pieces of rubble nearby.
"Poof~", the pebbles fell into the bubbling place in the middle of the lake. Bian Yao threw a few stones with a wave of his arm in a row, and finally shook his head and sighed. Originally, he thought that when he climbed to the top of the mountain, he could see the fire coming out of the mountain pass, but it turned out to be such an uninteresting sight.
The girl turned her eyes to the stone in Bian Yao's hand, and suddenly shouted, "Look at me throwing farther than you!" and then turned around and ran to the side to pick up the stone.
"Puff~Puff~......" The sound of stones falling into the water.
"How's it going, it's farther than you!" said the girl, smirking.
Bian Yao snorted, turned his head to the side, and said with disdain: "I didn't use all my strength to throw it!"
"You're lying, I see you're throwing it hard, or you're throwing it at me with all your might!" cried the girl in discontent, perhaps because the air was a little hot, and her pink face flushed.
"It's boring! I'm too lazy to compare this with you!" Bian Yao replied in a low voice, his tone seemed unnatural, and a few reds flew on his face inexplicably.
The girl was choked by his angry voice, and was about to open her mouth to scold, but the black-clothed young man who was silent on the side suddenly spoke, "There is something in the middle of the lake!"
Hearing this, Bian Yao and the girl's faces were shocked, and at the same time they turned their eyes to the center of the lake.
At some point, in the middle of the bubbling lake, a strange-looking head, black and round, seemed to be looking at them.
"Oh no! Burning Flame Beast!" Bian Yao's face changed and he shouted.
"Have you seen that strange thing?" the girl was surprised.
"I've seen it once, it's more troublesome to deal with! It was my dream clone that was in contact with it at the beginning, and if it were the main body, I would definitely die! It can spit out very hot gas from its mouth, and if it is an adult Burning Flame Beast, it can spit out flames. ”
Before Bian Yao could finish his words, he saw the Burning Flame Beast quickly swim towards this side.
"Run!" he shouted hurriedly, turning to run.
After listening to Bian Yao's words, the sisters and brothers next to them not only did not mean to run away, but on the contrary, they also showed excited looks on their faces.
"You don't want to die?" Bian Yao retracted his steps, seemed to see the intention in the hearts of the two of them, and couldn't help shouting urgently.
Bian Yao said in his heart, you two guys who don't know whether to live or die! This scorching flame beast even said that the old ghost was more troublesome to deal with, although he was just a doppelganger at that time, but the old ghost was a dream venerable powerhouse! Regarding the old ghost's cultivation realm, although he never answered himself positively, judging from his words and the various means he showed, it was definitely a dream venerable!
The black-clothed young man stared coldly at the rapidly approaching Scorching Flame Beast Head, slowly raised his right hand, and pulled out a sword finger. When the beast was less than five feet away from the shore, the boy suddenly threw his fingers at the surface of the lake.
Suddenly, a sword aura shot out and shot towards the big black head of the Burning Flame Beast.
"Whew~!" A strange scream suddenly sounded!
Suddenly, a red liquid oozed from the forehead of the Burning Flame Beast, and after a few painful screams, it shook its head and slowly sank to the bottom of the lake.
"Is it dead?" Bian Yao secretly glanced at the black-clothed young man and asked curiously.
"Not dead!" the young man stared intently at the lake, his voice as cold and indifferent as ever.
At this time, the girl picked up two large pebbles from nowhere, and threw them into the place where the Burning Flame Beast was diving, as if she wanted to lure it out.
After only a few breaths, there was a "bang~~", and a huge bubble suddenly appeared in the center of the lake, and the water splashed in all directions.
In the stunned eyes of Bian Yao and the girl, a huge black head emerged from the surface of the lake, and it was a scorching flame beast! several times larger than the one just now, and a pair of white giant eyes and bones turned, staring at the three people on the shore of the lake.
After a brief silence, there was a "huh~" sound! The Scorching Flame Beast suddenly opened its mouth and spewed out a thick pillar of crimson fire, rushing straight towards the shore of the lake.
When the pillar of fire reached the shore, it suddenly swelled out, forming a ball of fire about three zhang in diameter, as if it was about to swallow Bian Yao and them all. The three of them hurriedly dodged and leaped to the side, dodging the sudden burst of fire. Although he was not touched by the flames, he felt a hot wave of air blowing in, and he passed by in an instant, which was extremely dangerous!
The feeling of heat surged all over the three of them, and Bian Yao, who was hiding slowly, even smelled a faint smell of burnt hair, and he couldn't help but feel a thrill! If he was stained by that terrifying flame, he would have to give away half his life if he didn't die!
"Run! Once it is ashore, it will be very agile!" Bian Yao hurriedly shouted as he caught a glimpse of the Scorching Flame Beast swimming quickly towards him.
This time, the sister and brother were very obedient, followed Bian Yao, and rushed towards the bottom of the mountain without hesitation. The three of them fled lifelessly to the foot of the mountain without looking back, not daring to pause in the slightest.
In a few moments, they ran to the foot of the mountain, stopped their figures, and hurriedly looked back, only to find that the Scorching Flame Beast had not been chasing, and then they were reassured.
"Let's go! The girl patted her heaving chest and spoke.
"Don't you know where you are looking for something, so you are going to look for it one by one?" Bian Yao turned his eyes to her, full of surprise.
"I know! The magma spewed out by the volcano may grow on it within half a year after it cools and solidifies, so we need to find an active volcano, and it is an active volcano that has erupted lava in half a year. The girl explained with a serious face.
"Then how do you tell that the volcano is alive and has erupted in half a year?"
"I don't know, but I'll take a look at any hot place. The girl pursed her lips with a look of course.
"It can really toss people!" Bian Yao said secretly, and then pretended to glance at the black-clothed young man casually, and found that he was standing next to him expressionlessly, looking like a young girl. I couldn't help but sigh in my heart: It's good to have such an obedient brother who won't complain!
Led by the girl, the three of them continued to hurry eastward into the volcano group to find the next target volcano.
