Chapter Twenty-Four: Gathering People in the Sea of Flowing Fire
"yes, it's been ten years, and I don't know if the Flame Sun Beast is still there." Huoyuan frowned slightly, unconvinced.
"Let's go to sea with me, I'll go and make sure." Yang Ji said suddenly.
"How do you know that? Does the Master want to go deep into that crater? Huo Yuan shook his head and hurriedly said, "Master, although the extinct crater is not big, it is dark inside, and it is terrifyingly deep, like the entrance to hell. At first, I chased the flame beast to the mouth, but I didn't dare to go down. ”
Full of fear of the unknown, Yang Ji can understand his feelings, but he has his own way to explore the dangers inside.
At the moment, he also said vaguely: "You take me to see it, I have my own way." ”
"Yes, Master!" Huo Yuan is also a human spirit, and he didn't ask much, and immediately said, "Then I'll go to the golden shopkeeper now to arrange the big ship for going to sea." ”
"Don't reveal too much to him." Yang Ji said suddenly.
"I understand this, master, you can rest assured." Huo Yuan smiled, his eyes full of wisdom.
Yang Ji saw that he was not a stupid person, so he nodded.
Sure enough, there are people under him, and it is more convenient to do things, and it seems that he did nothing wrong when he sent Dan Fang out and gave him some benefits.
Yang Ji was quite satisfied in his heart.
Huoyuan is very efficient, and he has the identity of the chief alchemist of Wanbaolou, and he has a green light all the way.
Half an hour later, the two of them were already sailing slowly out to sea in a large boat.
After a day of sailing, the big ship stopped in front of a sea area that looked a little special.
The sea in front of him stretched out, and it was red and yellow until the end of the line of sight, which did not fit in with the dark blue behind him, and did not blend in.
"Master, this sea area is called the Drifting Fire Sea. Both on the islands and at the bottom of the sea, there are many volcanoes, which produce many unique elixirs and ores, but they are very dangerous. Huo Yuan introduced from the side.
Without extinguishing the source of the fire, Yang Ji had already seen a number of small islands in front of him that were densely packed like chess pieces.
There was no life on it, only the fiery red magma and the black smoke that rose into the sky.
Thick smoke covered the sky, and the flames were raging, like gunpowder and red ground, a battlefield of purgatory.
It can really be described as three hundred miles of flowing pulp flames, and black smoke is angry and stains the sky.
It's not a place for people at all.
The temperature was frighteningly high, and the air was violently distorted, creating ripples of heat that were visible to the naked eye.
The entire sea area of flowing fire is like a huge furnace, the sea water is boiling, the heat wave is rolling, and the slightest wind flow carries the unbearable heat of ordinary people.
Smelling the pungent smell of sulfur, Yang Ji subconsciously frowned.
At the moment, he looked sideways and asked,
"Where is that extinct volcano under the sea?"
"It's not far from here. Master, you come with me. Huoyuan took out the water boat with his backhand, sat in it first, and dived to the bottom of the sea.
Yang Ji also took out the water boat and followed.
The two of them walked ten miles along the flowing water before stopping.
Below the two of them, there is an extinct volcanic crater with a diameter of 100 feet, which is very dark inside, and it is really deep and secluded.
It's as if a giant of the deep sea opens its mouth and waits quietly for its prey to fall into the net, which is daunting.
"Master, it's down there, and I don't know if the Flame Sun Beast is still inside." The source of the fire is also uncertain.
Yang Ji didn't say anything, but fixed his eyes on it, and immediately there was information that [The sleeping volcano, the magma accumulation in it, will erupt again in a hundred years. 】
There's magma in it?
Yang Ji raised his eyebrows and continued to gaze, his gaze seemed to have penetrating power, and all kinds of complicated information burst out from his eyes like codes, and a piece of information was captured by him [There is a flame snake in the scorching magma. 】
Later, a message was captured [There is a sleeping Flame Sun Beast in the depths of the magma, level ten. 】
Sunmon!
See this information display.
Yang Ji was overjoyed in his heart, but soon his expression became solemn.
Level ten?
This Flame Yang Beast is already stronger than ordinary demon beasts, a fierce flame is incomparable, level ten, and it is comparable to a human foundation building master.
This...... It seems a little tricky.
Yang Ji frowned and said secretly: "This Flame Yang Beast was still a seventh-level demon beast ten years ago, how could it break through so quickly?" ”
He was a little puzzled, because the cultivation of demon beasts was much slower than that of human cultivators, and this flame yang beast was not a royal family among demons, so it cultivated so fast.
But now is not the time to think about this, Yang Ji made a look at the source of fire, and drove the water boat out of the water.
On the big boat, Huo Yuan asked, "Master, what did you see just now?" Is that Flame Sun Beast still down there? ”
"It should still be down there, let's go, let's go back and prepare." Yang Ji replied.
Should? Huo Yuan raised his eyebrows, his little eyes turned slightly, stared at Yang Ji, and nodded suddenly.
Yes!
It doesn't matter if it's not, when it's not!
After all, this Flame Sun Beast is an uncommon fire attribute demon beast, and it would be a pity to miss it, so you have to go down and find out.
Yang Ji glanced at him and didn't say much.
"Master, ten years ago, that Flame Sun Beast was about to break through to the eighth level, and now that so many years have passed, it is estimated that it is already a ninth-level demon beast, with our strength, it is difficult to kill it." The source of the fire was analyzed.
"yes, it's hard." That's a tenth-level demon beast, it must be difficult, it's not something that one of them can deal with with a seventh-level qi cultivation and a ninth-level qi training, Yang Ji said, "Ten years have passed, just treat it as a tenth-level demon beast." ”
"Rank 10 Demon Beast?" Huo Yuan looked stunned, hesitated for a moment, and said, "In that case, but you have to build a foundation master to deal with it?" ”
"Yes, so you have to ask Master Huoyuan for a favor, in the name of your peak alchemist, summon the masters to hunt, and I will pay the honorarium. Would the Fire Master be willing to help me with this? Yang Ji smiled sideways.
"The master laughed, don't say a favor, even if I want to jump, I'm willing to jump." Huo Yuan smiled and glanced at the extinct crater under the sea in the distance, but soon, his expression was embarrassed without a trace.
The little eyes turned slightly, and there was a shudder in my heart immediately [This is going to jump, I'm really a little scared, I'm about to practice the tenth layer of qi, and I can join the sect to fight, if I can build a foundation, there will be a good time for hundreds of years. 】
Huo Yuan's small eyes narrowed, tidied up his robe, and after straightening his chest slightly, he said with a smile:
"Master, we are alchemists, our status is noble, and the work of hunting and killing is left to those loose cultivators. When the time comes, you will sit in the boat in peace, and wait for them to bring the beast fire. ”
"You are right, you have to make good use of your identity as an alchemist." Yang Ji smiled mysteriously at him.
The two then returned to Wanbao Building.
On the second floor, in a lavishly furnished room, a total of seven people sit around a table.
Huo Yuan sat in the main seat, with Yang Ji on his left and Chen De on his right.
As for the other five people, they are all known to Yang Ji, namely Xu Xiangsong, Liu Yongqing, Tan Guanghong, Fang Sheng, and his Taoist companion Liu Furong.
They all met Yang Ji when he went to sea with the ship.
In the past two years, in addition to cultivating, Yang Ji has also gone to sea with the ship from time to time, and everyone has become familiar with each other.
I called them here at this moment to hunt the Flame Sun Beast.
However, the main thing is the source of fire, after all, they don't know the identity of Yang Ji's alchemist.
Kim Dae-fook and Huoyuan were also not mentioned to the public.
"Master Huoyuan, you have invited Senior Chen, could it be that this time you are hunting a demon beast at the level of a demon general?" Xu Xiangsong's expression flashed slightly.
Huoyuan sat down steadily, with a solemn expression and quite majestic, and he took a moment to straighten out his clothes, and then said slowly:
"This time, the relationship between the shopkeeper of Tokin invited everyone to help the old man hunt a tenth-level demon beast. This demon beast's inner pill is useful to me, and I want to use it to refine a special elixir. After the deed is accomplished, there will be a great reward. ”
"Oh? What level 10 demon beast is worthy of Senior Chen and our five Qi Cultivation Layers together? Liu Yongqing said hesitantly.
"You'll know when the time comes." Huo Yuan didn't answer directly, but said, "The strength of this beast is not strong, but it is hidden quite deeply, so it needs more manpower." ”
"Where is this beast hiding?" Liu Furong asked.
"In the sea of fire, inside an extinct volcano." Fire Source Road.
Drifting Fire? Hearing this, Chen De was stunned, and suddenly his eyes flashed, as if he had thought of something, so he smiled gently:
"Since Master Huoyuan is warmly invited, then I, Chen De, will definitely go."
"Then thank you Chen Daoyou, after the matter is completed, the elixir will definitely be served." Huo Yuan thanked him, and with his status as a peak alchemist, he was enough to be on an equal footing with Chen De.
Seeing that Chen De, a master of foundation building, everyone had agreed, glanced at each other, and then nodded towards the source of the fire.
With the addition of the foundation building masters, plus the five of them, no matter how strong the tenth-level demon beasts are, they can't make waves, and the risk is infinitely reduced, they will not be afraid.
They have all experienced the scattered cultivation of life and death, and they have done too much of this kind of thing when they see the opportunity, and if there is really danger, they will definitely slip away first.
"Thank you very much."
Seeing that everyone nodded, Huo Yuan immediately smiled, and then added, "Although that place is an extinct volcano, there may be magma in it, everyone is still ready to prepare, and we will set off again in three days." ”
"Okay, it just so happens that I have something to do in the past few days, and it would be best to set off in three days, and I will definitely rush to the Drifting Fire Sea to meet you then." Chen De smiled gently.
