Chapter 305: Time flies
Two months later,
At the eastern pole of the continent, a smoky stretch of mountains, covered with dark black basalts, flowing with a scorching fiery red,
The mountains are dotted with craters, large and small, and from time to time you can see a pillar of red lava and fire rising into the sky, and black smoke billowing into the sky with a loud rumbling sound.
It's not the most spectacular sight in the Candlelit Mountains, it's the night season that the sight will never be forgotten.
Although the Candlelight Mountain Range is a dangerous place, and countless monsters and beasts live inside, there are hundreds of millions of creatures living on the periphery of the mountain range.
This volcanic active place is also a battleground for all the clans of the Nine Demon Continent, in addition to being able to avoid the bitter cold and weirdness of the dark night season, this place is not only rich in spiritual energy, but also extremely rich in resources.
The true core of the Candlelight Mountains is a volcanic complex that stretches for thousands of miles, and is shrouded in a poisonous fiery mist all year round, and almost no mortal can approach this place except for the gods who can fly to the sky.
On this day, the fire cloud canopy in the sky was suddenly broken open by a white jade flying saucer, and the flying saucer swooped down and stopped outside the fire fog.
A door cracked silently on the surface of the white jade flying saucer, and Zhao Sheng flew out of it, followed by a sturdy woman with a fiery red body and bright facial features.
Dao Yanfeng looked at the fire in front of him, pinched the spell in his hand, and recited a few unknown spells in a very low voice.
In the next second, the white jade flying saucer shrank rapidly, turned into a palm-sized white saucer, and disappeared into the empty seal on the woman's waist in a flash.
"Lord Sheng, this is the famous fire belt of the Candlelight Mountain Range, and the spiritual vein where the Fierce Flame Lion is entrenched will definitely satisfy you." Dao Yanfeng said confidently but respectfully to Zhao Sheng.
Zhao Sheng looked at the heat wave in front of him, frowned slightly but didn't say anything, but confirmed: "I need a spiritual vein that is more than a hundred feet high. Are you sure the Flame Lion is where I need? ”
"Don't worry, sir! My knife department has been breeding in Mt. Candlelight for more than 2,000 years, and I am very familiar with the terrain of the mountains. My ancestors had broken into the fire belt nine times, and finally managed to come out alive and draw a map of the terrain and spiritual veins. And that spiritual vein is the highest spiritual essence in the picture, and it will definitely satisfy you.
Besides, my lord has promised to accept one of my tribesmen as an apostle. How dare I, Dao Yanfeng, deceive you? After Dao Yanfeng finished speaking, he looked at Zhao Sheng with a sincere face, and his eyes unabashedly showed admiration.
In the Underworld Realm, the level of spiritual veins is divided according to the level of spiritual essence, less than 100 feet is equivalent to a first-order spiritual vein, more than 100 feet is a second-order spiritual vein, and above 1,000 feet is a third-order spiritual vein......
Let's try it soon, everyone. 】
The Dao family where Dao Yanfeng is located is a large clan tribe living on the edge of the mountain range, respecting the surname Dao and vassalizing many small families.
When Zhao Sheng first came to the Candlelight Mountains, he lacked a guide who was familiar with the terrain, and the knife happened to be in front of his route, so everything was logical.
In the end, the Dao family sent Dao Yanfeng, who had the foundation building cultivation, as a guide, and the purpose was not simple, which had the meaning of recommending himself to the pillow.
In the Dark Night Realm, the theory of bloodline level is so deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and now seeing such a young Jindan main priest descending on the tribe, it is strange that the Dao family is not moved.
Zhao Sheng nodded after listening, and then waved his hand, and a circle of golden flames rose up, protecting the two of them in it.
When the golden flame aperture touched the red fire mist, the sound of Ziz was loud!
With a "poof", the aperture turned by the golden crow true fire drove straight into the fire mist.
But seeing the fire and fog tumbling violently, it then returned to its original state, and Zhao Sheng and the others had already gone deep into it.
Along the way, there are many dangers, but often Zhao Sheng flicked his fingers, a ray of sword light flashed, and all the monsters and fierce birds encountered pierced their brains and died.
Dao Yanfeng was shocked again and again, and kept taking out the dark yellow beast scroll map to compare the terrain.
It took the two of them two days to circumnavigate the 700-mile volcano group and come to a mountain range that was even hotter than the periphery.
After another half an hour according to the map, the two came to a huge mountain full of red mountains and dense forests and ancient trees.
Near the top of the mountain is a tall, deep cave where the Flame Lion should be.
"Sheng-sama, that's it. The Fierce Flame Lion's spiritual sense is extremely keen, and if he continues to get closer, he may be discovered. At a distance of thirty or forty miles from the cave, Dao Yanfeng stopped, and Zhao Sheng also stopped.
He looked up at the entrance of the cave under the giant peak in the distance, the closer he got there, the higher the temperature became, and the hole faintly appeared with clouds of fire, and the air exuded a fishy smell.
"The strength of the Jindan-level Fierce Flame Lion is not trivial, you withdraw two hundred miles away first. Two days at most, I will go looking for you. Zhao Sheng turned around and said expressionlessly.
Dao Yanfeng wanted to express himself very much, so he proposed with a sincere expression: "My lord, the Fierce Flame Lion is a natural fire spirit, with the ability to control the power of the surrounding earth fire, and there is a magma river under that cave, and the earth fire is endless. It's too bad to fight it there. We might as well lure it out of the cavern and trap it with a large array and kill it while we have the opportunity to kill it. ”
"It's just a brute, don't be so troublesome!" Zhao Sheng nodded, but rejected her suggestion.
Seeing that Zhao Sheng was stubborn, this woman's face couldn't help but be a little pale, and she hesitated to salute, "Since this is the case, Feng'er will congratulate the adults in advance on their victory!" ”
After speaking, her body turned, and a large red flame suddenly rose under her body, and the flames rose into the sky, flying into the distance extremely fast.
……
After only half a meal, a deafening loud bang suddenly sounded from the top of the mountain peak in the distance, and the whole mountain shook violently.
"Whoosh"!
A huge blood-red fireball shot out from the cave, and the entire cave mouth exploded, and a large dazzling red cloud rolled out of it.
Immediately afterward, a golden flame burst out of the cloud of fire, catching up with the blood-colored fireball in a flash.
Roar!
At this time, a terrible lion roar shook the heavens and the earth, and the fireball exploded instantly, revealing that it was a huge fierce beast with a body of seven or eight zhang in size, and its whole body was as red as fire, and its appearance looked like a lion, but its body was full of bright red hair, and its four strong legs were covered with red scale armor, and its four legs were as sharp as dragon claws.
"Brute, do you want to die or live?!" Zhao Sheng's whole body was full of real fire, hanging above the head of the fierce flame lion, and the divine consciousness in his eyes was revealed.
The Jindan-level demon beast has already opened its mind, although it can't understand human language, but it can also understand the meaning of Zhao Sheng's divine sense.
If you don't want to die, you surrender to the murderer in front of you.
Freedom or death?
"Roar!"
The fierce flame lion roared, undoubtedly indicating its attitude, and a red pillar of fire erupted from its mouth, hitting Zhao Sheng above with great speed.
"Boom".
The pillar of fire exploded violently, expanding into a large sea of fire, completely sealing Zhao Sheng's retreat.
"Hmph, kill yourself! Give me my life! Zhao Sheng snorted coldly, and the true fire in his whole body instantly boiled and surged, turning into layers of fire to protect his whole body.
Then he stomped on his feet, and a golden giant eleven or twelve feet tall suddenly appeared behind him.
In the next moment, Zhao Sheng, with the power of thunder, fell from the sky with a bang, and stepped out of a large vacuum, and the ground within a hundred zhang was instantly sunken, like a large crater.
In the center of the crater, the fierce flame lion sprayed demon blood wildly, his limbs were weak, and he fell to the ground in embarrassment, his thick back folded into a terrifying V-shape, and seven or eight red and white bone stubbles were exposed, which was extremely miserable.
However, in the next moment, the roar and whistling sounded, and countless fists and feet came together, smashing the fierce flame lion and spraying demon blood, the demon body was ravaged, the bones and flesh were broken countless times, and the fierce light in the eyes quickly dimmed.
In fact, when its proudest power of fire manipulation was ineffective against Zhao Sheng, it had already decided its final outcome.
In just a moment, there were more dense pits on the ground, countless messes, a large amount of hot demon blood was sprinkled all over the vicinity for several miles, and patches of mottled flesh and bones could be seen everywhere on the ground.
After venting the depression that had been held in his heart for a long time, Zhao Sheng's body flashed, burning away the little blood stains on his robe, and also burning away the confusion about the future.
At this moment, his heart was like water.
……
Ten years later, the candle illuminates the mountains, Thang Long Province.
On this day, the sky was just dawning, and just as Zhao Sheng was about to go to the Earth Fire Room to prepare for refining the elixir, there was a sudden fluctuation in the prohibition outside the cave.
"Hey, why is she here!"
After Zhao Sheng's divine sense swept outside, his brows were furrowed.
His mind moved, and the door of the cave slowly opened.
Outside the door, there was a stunning woman wearing a red dress with bright eyes, who was Dao Yanfeng.
After a few moments, the two of them sat down in the living room.
"Feng'er, what's the matter with coming to me this time?" Zhao Sheng looked at this woman with a calm face, but found that his own sect had already hid early, and he immediately had a guess in his heart.
"Why, don't you welcome Feng'er? Could it be that adults dislike Feng'er for not looking good? Dao Yan Feng Yanran said.
Zhao Sheng frowned, and said suddenly: "If it's okay, you can step back!" I'm going to do alchemy. ”
"Don't be angry, sir, Feng'er is here to do business. You see..."
This woman was not afraid of Zhao Sheng's appearance, and swept towards the desktop in front of her with one hand, and after a red glow flowed, a large number of brocade boxes of different colors came out in an instant.
She looked at Zhao Sheng and said seriously: "My lord, these are the best elixirs for refining the Xuanming Quenching Bone Pill, or according to the original plan, four out of ten." ”
When Zhao Sheng heard this, his divine sense swept through these elixirs, and suddenly his palm moved, and he stroked the largest brocade box among them, and immediately opened the lid of the box.
I saw a green light inside, and it was a few spherical mushroom umbrellas the size of a skull
These mushroom umbrellas seem to have been split from a whole piece of corpse, and judging from their cutting methods, the person who did it was also a master, and it did not affect the spiritual power of the corpse itself in the slightest.
The aura fluctuations emitted by the mushroom umbrella are very strong, and compared to the high-energy mushroom meat that was occasionally obtained in the Shattered Star Sea back then, the spirituality contained in this thing is far more than the former.
"Sure enough, it is the corpse of the Jindan Realm, and it seems that it has been faintly promoted to the middle stage of the Jindan...... Other elixirs are also rare on the market. In this case, Zhao has a little more confidence in refining the top-grade Xuanming Quenching Bone Pill, but he can give it a try. Zhao Sheng pondered for a moment and then said slowly.
"An alchemy master who can refine two Dragon and Tiger Golden Pills in the first attempt, refining some Xuanming Quenching Bone Pill should not be a difficult task for adults!" When Dao Yanfeng heard this, he raised his eyebrows and shouted.
Zhao Sheng couldn't help but feel a little funny when he saw that the other party looked like he was taking it for granted.
This woman is also a little interesting, as a young master, her cultivation is not weak, but she doesn't seem to understand the way of alchemy, but she wants to pretend that she understands it very well.
"Alchemy is already time-consuming and laborious, but I can't rush it. Even if I open the furnace for alchemy immediately, it will take about half a month! Zhao Sheng replied affirmatively.
"It's been so long! In that case, I might as well just wait here, and the adults won't drive me away, right? Dao Yanfeng's eyes twitched, and he asked carefully.
"Stay if you want! The stone chamber where the rest is still in the old place. When Zhao Sheng heard this, he didn't raise his eyelids, and directly agreed to Dao Yanfeng's request.
"My lord is really sympathetic!" When Dao Yanfeng heard this, a subtle smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"But before that, there are some things that need to be explained to you......" Zhao Sheng then thought of something. and Dao Yanfeng explained the matter of not going deep into the underground magma river.
When Dao Yanfeng heard this, he didn't ask too much, and agreed to some of Zhao Sheng's instructions.
Zhao Sheng swept away all the elixir materials, put them in his sleeve, and then turned around and walked in the direction of the Earth Fire Room.
"Hmph, you can't escape. My Feng'er will be your person sooner or later! Dao Yanfeng looked at the figure slowly walking away, and muttered to himself with the corners of his mouth curled.
……
Twenty years have passed.
The dark season has just passed half a month.
In the early morning of this day, a row of white jade flying saucers was passing through a series of gray-white mountains, and the surrounding mountains sometimes became embraced, and sometimes they were as steep as a knife, and they couldn't help but make the knife make a strange sound.
At this moment, a mutation protruded!
More than ten miles away, among the mountains on both sides, there was a deafening roar, followed by an extremely astonishing sound of breaking the sky, and hundreds of huge stones turned into a large stone rain, shooting towards the direction of the convoy like meteors.
"Not good, there is an ambush!"
With a low sound of vigilance, the entire disc team instantly boiled.
Immediately after, nearly a hundred sword clan guards flew out of the flying saucer in an instant, and the red blades behind them slammed into the air, and the dense wind blades shot out, connecting together, like a wall of wind whistling towards the boulders in the sky.
A burst of gold tearing silk came intensively!
The boulders shattered in the air like tofu in front of the wind blade, breaking down into dozens of small pieces, and a rain of stones the size of a fist fell, but this aftermath was no longer too threatening to the team.
Just when the smoke and dust in the air had not yet dissipated, in the middle of the air, a large number of alien races wearing various costumes appeared densely, looking strange, far exceeding the number of tribal guards.
The leader was a two-foot-tall, four-limbed, ugly-looking giant man with thick black hair all over his body, like a large black bear in the shape of a human.
After this person appeared, an invisible coercion surged towards the people of the Fire Knife Department in an instant.
Dao Xiaodao suddenly shouted wildly: "It's a ghost thief!" It's not good, it seems that the leader is Xiong Jia of the Mad Bear Clan, who has the cultivation of the early stage of Jindan, everyone be careful! ”
