Chapter 75: Volcanic Eruption
The low beast roar under the furnace had just come out, and with a "bang", a large area of yellow magma erupted from the mouth of the circular furnace, overflowing along the mouth of the furnace. At the same time, a high temperature filled the entire stone chamber.
Feeling this terrifying high temperature, Beihe rushed to the side of the stone bed not far away, hugged the storage bag, white robe, jade box and tens of thousands of silver tickets on the stone bed in his arms, and then turned back, grabbed the iron rod that fell on the ground, and the big net that looked like a dead thing, and galloped towards the passage.
Judging from the current situation, it is possible that the spirit beast at the bottom of the magma was alarmed by his fierce fight with the white-haired old man. Bei He was able to kill the white-haired old man by luck, and he would not be arrogant enough to think that he could compete with the spirit beast in the magma.
All these movements seemed slow, but in fact, it was only two breaths, and Beihe's figure had already rushed to the position of the mouth of the passage.
At this time, he caught a glimpse of the white-haired old man's corpse at his feet. Bei He was naturally not interested in this person's corpse, but at this time, he noticed a yellow gourd on the waist of the white-haired old man. I saw him grit his teeth, hold everything in his arms with his left hand, and when he passed by the corpse, he bent down and grabbed the yellow gourd on the corpse's waist in his hand, and after doing all this, he dodged and rushed into the dark passage.
Beihe glanced back and found that the magma that had overflowed before was now gushing out like a fountain, covering the ground of the stone chamber.
Not only that, but the next moment I heard a "boom", and the round furnace mouth was violently attacked from below, and it exploded, and the magma and many stones exploded in all directions.
And out of the huge gap, a huge head emerged.
The skull was about the size of a foot and looked like a snake's head covered in fiery red scales.
Two lantern-sized eyes opened, and two flames burned in their pupils. And when the head appeared, the next moment the beast's body, which was slightly smaller than the head, rose to the sky and stood in the entire stone chamber.
"Buzz!"
An astonishing spiritual pressure emanated from the beast's body at this time. The beast's gaze also looked in the direction of Beihe's escape.
Beihe's face turned pale with fright, and he turned around and fled for his life without any reservations.
Looking at Beihe like a lost dog, he didn't see any movement of the huge spirit beast, but the magma under the beast was pulled by an invisible force.
"Boom la la ......"
The viscous yellow magma was like a rushing river, rolling towards the dark passage, blocking the entire passage, and then chasing towards the North River.
Beihe, who looked back and saw this scene, could be said to be in a state of no possession, and he used his strength to eat milk and ran towards the exit of the passage.
The passage of more than 200 zhang seemed to be extremely long for him at this moment. Especially when he felt the terrifying high temperature behind him, the blue tendons on Beihe's forehead burst out.
Fortunately, after Beihe bypassed a bend in a moment, he saw a white point of light, which was the exit.
Eventually, his galloping body ejected from the hole in the side of the low mountain, jumped two feet high, fell fiercely, smashed on the slope of the low mountain, and rolled in place several times before unloading the force.
As his front feet rushed out of the cave, a large stream of magma erupted from the mouth of the cave and rolled down the mountain.
Beihe's face was pale, and he didn't dare to stop all the way. Fortunately, this low mountain is not steep, and the magma is viscous, so the speed of the flow down is not fast.
"Buzz ......"
Before Beihe could breathe a sigh of relief, the ground suddenly shook slightly, and the boulders on the low mountain rolled down, and cracks appeared in the mountain. In the crack, puffs of smoke came out, and in the thick smoke, you could faintly see the yellow magma rolling.
"Volcanic eruption!" Beihe exclaimed.
Located at the junction of Zhou and Feng, this area of fire lava has volcanic eruptions every tens of hundreds of years, and now it seems that he has encountered something that is rare for tens or hundreds of years.
Beihe scolded secretly, but the only thing he could do was to escape.
After a short time, Beihe fled all the way to the foot of the mountain and continued to rush forward. His body is like a wild horse that has escaped from the leash, and on the dry earth, he has brought up an earth dragon.
And his escape was more than ten miles, and then he was out of breath.
When he arrived, he turned around and saw that the smoke had risen to a height of a thousand feet, and the ground was still shaking beneath his feet. Streams of yellow spread across the low hills.
Beihekou swallowed dryly, although he didn't know what that spirit beast was, but judging from the current situation, it seemed that this beast could cause a volcanic eruption, so it could be seen that that spirit beast was definitely not something he could provoke.
After shaking his head, Beihe continued to run forward, and now he should be safe.
......
In the deep mountains of Tianyuan County of the Zhou Kingdom, there are many naturally formed caves.
At this time, in one of the caves, Beihe was sitting cross-legged on a flat rock, meditating and pranayama.
A moment later, I saw him open his eyes. Two days had passed since he had escaped from the cave, and his expression was calm and his state had almost recovered.
After exhaling, Beihe looked at a few things in front of him, and a thick smile appeared on his face.
Two storage bags, a robe, a jade box, and a net-shaped ritual vessel with a yellow gourd.
Among them, the net bag magic weapon, as well as the yellow gourd and a storage bag, belonged to the white-haired old man. The rest of the stuff was what he left in the cave back then.
Beihe took the lead in picking up the net-shaped magic weapon, only to see that this thing was pale gold, as if it was made of a kind of hemp rope, and the whole was extremely light, and it was as light as nothing in his hand.
Now that the white-haired old man has died, this thing is an ownerless thing, as long as he uses his essence blood to refine it, he can control this magic weapon.
Of course, for Beihe, it is still extremely difficult to control a magic weapon, after all, he can't even save mana in his body, so how can he control a magic weapon.
Bei He put down the magic weapon, looked at the two storage bags, and showed a calm look.
Although the thing is already in hand, it is just like controlling the magic weapon, and if you want to open the storage bag, you also need mana.
However, opening the storage is a little different from manipulating the magic weapon, and opening the storage bag is only a matter of moments. Unlike manipulating magic weapons, it requires the continuous support of mana in the body.
Thinking of this, Bei He took out a spirit stone from his cuff with his left hand, and picked up the storage bag belonging to the white-haired old man with his right hand.
Then he closed his eyes and began to absorb and refine the spiritual energy in the spirit stone in his hand.
When he felt that the aura was refined into mana by him and flowed towards the dantian, Beihe did not hesitate, agitated the mana in the dantian, and rushed towards the storage bag in his right hand.
It's just that he was already extremely weak, and the trace of mana that he mobilized from the dantian just poured out of the dantian and collapsed.
Bei He frowned, and then once again absorbed and refined the spiritual energy in the spirit stone in his hand.
Next, he tried dozens of times in a row, until the spirit stone in his hand turned into a pile of powder and spilled from his fingers, and he opened his eyes.
At this time, instead of being discouraged, his face showed a smile.
Because after trying just now, he found that every time he tried to mobilize the mana in the dantian, although he would fail, every time the mana in his body would be closer to his palm. In other words, as long as he practiced for a long time, then he would definitely be able to drum up mana into the palm of his hand and inject it into the storage bag to open it.
Of course, this is a long-term affair, and it is obviously not possible to succeed in a moment. And he has been waiting for two years, so Beihe is not in a hurry at this time.
Beihe happily put down the storage bag and exhaled.
Just as he was about to withdraw his gaze, he inadvertently saw the yellow gourd on one side.
Bei He's expression moved, and he picked up the yellow gourd. What can be carried by the white-haired old man, this yellow gourd should not be an ordinary thing. This is also the reason why Beihe fled with his life before, and he also wanted to get this thing.
Looking at the seemingly ordinary yellow gourd in his hand, Beihe shook it, but the inside was empty.
After touching his chin, Beihe carefully pulled the stopper of the gourd and made a "wave" sound.
And at this moment, a scene that caught people off guard appeared, and from the yellow gourd, a large puff of black smoke erupted, heading towards Beihe.
