There was a river at Sun Hao's feet, but he didn't know how to describe it, to be precise, it should be a magma river.

The surface of the river was covered with fiery red magma, exuding a slow heat, and Sun Hao, who was standing above the river, felt that it was scorching even if he had an aura to protect his body.

But who has ever seen magma that freezes.

The magma solidified on the surface of the river in a strange form, as if the entire surface of the river had been frozen. But the magma did not go out, on the contrary, its color became more fiery red, forming a strange magma glacier.

Sun Hao couldn't help but sigh a little, there are really no wonders in the world. Here is a huge cave, more than 100 zhang high, stretching out on both sides, I don't know how far it has stretched.

Both sides of the stone wall are covered with small holes like honeycombs, and there is one at a distance of four or five zhang. It is said that it is a small hole, but it is only relatively speaking, these small holes are only three feet in size, and the big ones are more than a foot high, and there are terrible cries from time to time inside. Some small holes also poked out a few small heads that looked like monkeys, looking at Sun Hao strangely.

This is the nest of the "monkeys", and these small holes should be their home. I didn't expect to break into the demon cave by mistake. He wanted to move his body floating in the air, but his whole body was imprisoned by a strange force, and he didn't move.

Just when Sun Hao was at a loss, the strange voice from before came from the mouth of a cave: "You are a human monk, your cultivation is low, and your courage is not small, you dare to come to our Flame Holy Land alone, and you are not afraid that I will tear you apart." ”

Sun Hao frowned slightly, thought for a while, and suddenly laughed loudly: "Hahahaha, I don't know if the senior and the kid made such a joke, the kid inadvertently broke into your place in order to survive, I don't know the depth, I hope the senior Haihan." ”

"Hmph, it's really a lot of courage, you can still laugh at this time, it's not in vain that I saved you. As soon as the words fell, a humanoid creature walked out of a swarthy hole in front of Sun Hao.

The creature looked quite like the monkey from before, only four or five times larger. Instead of walking on the ground, he stood up like a human being. If it weren't for his wrinkled skin and ape-like face, Sun Hao would definitely think that this was a person. However, the spiritual power on his body is strong, and Sun Hao can't see the depth.

I saw him restrained himself, like a toddler, he walked out slowly step by step, and fell directly onto the magma river, and the magma river did not ripple at all. With a wave of his hand, he unlocked Sun Hao's ban and placed Sun Hao on a rock.

Touching the top of his wrinkled head, the old monkey waved his hand, stopping Sun Hao's desire to ask and continued: "You must want to ask me why I saved you, but it was actually an accident. As you can see, our race lives on fire, and our dependence on fire is about the same as your human need for water. The thing we hate the most is rain, if we get too much rain on our bodies, our whole body will fester. ”

"The night you fell off the cliff, one of my little grandsons inadvertently ran out of the hole, it was raining heavily, I was worried about his safety, so I went out to look for him, but I didn't expect to meet you hanging on the treetops on the way back, so I dragged you to the hole, I didn't expect you to really survive. ”

Sun Hao glanced at the old monkey with some surprise, he believed that the old monkey did not tell a lie, but he didn't expect that it was really him who saved himself. However, the old monkey saved himself and did not send himself to the ground, but let himself fend for himself in the hole, so there must be something hidden. However, he didn't ask much, just said in a deep voice: "Thank you seniors for saving me, presumably the seniors led me down, I'm afraid there is something to explain to the kid, if there is anything that can help the seniors, the kid will definitely go to the soup." ”

"Hahahaha. The old monkey laughed and said, "Young man, it's not a good thing to be too smart, you guessed right, I sent my little grandson to lead you down, and I really want you to help with something." ”

"Seniors, but it doesn't hurt to say. ”

"Do you know if our clan is a human or a demon? ”

"Oh, this" Sun Hao was a little embarrassed and didn't speak.

The old monkey didn't look at Sun Hao, a look of remembrance suddenly appeared on his face, and only after half a loud voice did he tremble emotionally: "You are a disciple of Qizhumen, you naturally know our details, that's right, just as your elders told you, it is a group of fire demons entrenched in the ground, according to your human words, our name should be called Fire Spirit Beast, right?"

Sun Hao didn't speak, just nodded.

The old monkey continued: "Demons, beasts, it's just a change in name, it can't be true, but our Fire Demon Clan is the descendants of the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain, and no one can deny this. ”

Ten Thousand Demon Mountain, Sun Hao listened to this unheard of name, and silently wrote it down in his heart.

"I think about how brilliant our Fire Demon Clan was at the beginning, the seventeen volcanoes entrenched in the Ten Thousand Demon Mountains were so powerful that even the Demon Lord had to give three points to our clan. But I never expected that the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain would fall, and the big demon of my fire demon clan would die and escape. The rest of the ethnic groups were led by the Holy Monarch to the Golden Bull Mountain and returned to the command of the Golden Bull Great Immortal. ”

"I hate that Qizhu Dao person, taking advantage of the ascension of the Golden Bull Great Immortal, he teamed up with a few human monks, relying on the strength of the crowd, to besiege the Holy Monarch. In the end, he also sealed him at the foot of the Golden Bull Mountain, turned the entire magma river into solid, and set up a great array of gods, in a vain attempt to seal the Holy Monarch. But the Holy Monarch has already reached the realm of immortality and immortality, how can it be so easy to be sealed. It's just that it was sealed underground by the big array, and it couldn't see the light of day, leaving only our low-level descendants to survive. ”

The old monkey said emotionally, trembling with anger, like an ape, his hands slammed the ground fiercely, and he actually knocked the solidified magma on the ground and splashed it, and a few drops of it flew to Sun Hao, so startled that Sun Hao hurriedly stopped it.

Only then did the old monkey react, and hurriedly waved a blast of wind with both hands to extinguish the fire on Sun Hao's body. But at this moment, Sun Hao's clothes had already burned a few small holes. However, Sun Hao couldn't care about this detail, he was still reminiscing about the old monkey's words.

From the perspective of the sect, this matter is the history of the Qizhu Sect, although Sun Hao doesn't know the details, but he still roughly understands, but he really has never heard of the matter of the Fire Spirit Holy Monarch. And looking at the reaction of the old monkey, it doesn't look like a fake at this time. He asked with some confusion: "Is this true?" but why haven't I heard of it? ”

The old monkey glanced at Sun Hao with some surprise, and said with a strange laugh: "Why, now your elders don't even dare to tell you the truth, I didn't expect that Qizhumen has fallen to such a level, quack quack." ”

He shook his head, didn't say anything in the depths, and changed his words: "Young man, I guess you fell off the cliff because you were persecuted, I don't know who had a deep grudge against you and knocked you off the cliff." ”

Sun Hao's heart tightened, he didn't dare to tell the truth, and said with a smile: "The seniors said that they were laughing, I just fell down, how could I be beaten down." ”

"Hahahaha, what a misstep and a fall. The old monkey laughed, "I know you won't tell me the truth, you monks have always been full of nonsense, but it doesn't matter. ”

The old monkey continued: "As far as I know, monks are most fond of infighting, and every year many corpses fall from our caves, but you are the only one who is alive. I don't care who your enemy is, but I can assure you that as long as you help me do a very simple thing, I can help you arrest your enemy, abolish the cultivation, and leave it at your disposal. If you don't think that's enough, I'll give you another thousand spirit stones so that you can cultivate easily. ”

Sun Hao couldn't help but be a little moved, a thousand spirit stones was indeed a huge income, but he understood that there was no free lunch in the world. He hesitated for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "I don't know what my predecessors want me to do, if I can't do it or what is harmful to me, I will definitely not do it." ”

"Rest assured, this matter is extremely simple. Our people live on fire, and if they don't baptize pure flame for a long time, they will become extremely weak, and they will die of losing their spirit. But this large array has sealed the magma river, and we can only live on a little leaking flame, and in the long run, I am worried about the danger of the dead, so I beg you to help me tear the big array a little bit, so that we can absorb a little bit of flame essence. ”

"The seniors laughed, if the juniors had that cultivation, they would have flown away a long time ago, and they wouldn't be here. The younger generation's cultivation is low, and I'm afraid that I won't be able to help the seniors. Sun Hao squinted his eyes and said.

Seeing that Sun Hao finally showed some signs of relenting, the old monkey was overjoyed, and took out a fiery red stone and said, "You can rest assured, you don't need to do anything about this matter, you just need to bring this stone to the Yuantian Temple above our heads." The Tianyuan Hall is just above, and there is a tunnel on top, and you can get there in no time if you follow it. There is a compass in the temple, and you can put the stone in the compass. Only Qizhumen disciples can enter this hall, for my sake of saving you, you can help me with this. ”

"It's as simple as that?"

"It's that simple!"

"There is no one in the temple?"

"Don't worry, Shaoxia, I have recently used a little trick to force several monks in the hall out of the hall. Now is the time when there is no one in the temple, you just have to go, and I promise you no less good. ”

"Then why don't you go yourself?"

"Hahahaha, the young man laughed. The old monkey laughed and said, "The seal on the entrance of the cave was personally laid by the old Dao of Qizhu back then, and only the disciples of Qizhu Gate who held the token of Qizhu Gate could enter and exit. How can I enter, otherwise the current decline of the Zhumen Gate, I alone will be enough to destroy the formation. ”

Sun Hao shook his head with some disbelief and said: "What the predecessor said does not match the preface, and I just said that you and Ling Sun can come out of the stone cave between the cliffs, and now you say that it is sealed, how can you make me believe it." ”

The old monkey was in a hurry, and hurriedly explained: "The young man has wronged me, that cave is just a vent carved out by a loophole in the formation I selected. At most, the people of my clan can only walk to the entrance of the cave, and once they leave the cave, they are afraid that they will be destroyed by the formation in an instant, where can they enter and exit at will. In order to save you that day, I also used the secret technique of the clan to control a wild eagle to hold you into the cave. If you don't believe me, I can swear that if I have half a lie, I will be punished by heaven and my soul will be scattered. ”

Sun Hao nodded, but he still didn't agree.

The old monkey saw that Sun Hao was still a little hesitant, so he continued to bewitch and said: "Young man, I know that it is indeed difficult for you to do such a thing. But if you think about it, the Qizhu Gate has not been completed like this now, even if you continue to cultivate in the Gate, it will be difficult for you to get ahead after all. Moreover, I think that your qualifications can only be regarded as a middle-class among monks, and without the help of external objects, I am afraid that it will be difficult to cross the threshold of life and death after all. But as long as you get this thousand spirit stones, you will be able to take one step more than others, and there is no big problem in cultivating to build a foundation, and it is unknown what the future road can be. Besides, there is basically no risk in this matter, there is no one in the Yuantian Temple now, as long as you bring this stone in, it is equivalent to saving my clan from fire and water, there is a hundred benefits and no harm, what else does the young man consider. ”

Sun Hao's brows furrowed, and he seemed to be in deep thought. In the expectant eyes of the old monkey, he patted his thigh, and said with some excitement: "Listening to the words of my predecessors, I understand the stakes, people die and birds rise to the sky, and they will not die for thousands of years." Not to mention that the risk of this matter is not large, even if it is to take a certain risk, only being strong is king. After speaking, he took the stone, put it in his arms without looking at it, and continued: "Senior, this matter is wrapped up in me, and I also ask my seniors to help me send me up, and the kid will live up to his trust." ”

The old monkey was overjoyed, and said with a smile: "Okay, the young man is noble, and the prosperity of our clan will be entrusted to the young man." After saying that, he used his spiritual energy, pushed Sun Hao's body and slowly flew into the air, and after a while, he was close to a hole on the top of the cave.

The old monkey stood on the ground and said loudly: "Young man, you must put it on the compass, and after putting it down, leave immediately." ”

Sun Hao nodded, but there was a sneer in his heart. Although the old monkey said a lot of things, he didn't have a few words of truth. Not to mention whether it is good or not, as long as he damages the big array, he is a traitorous sect, but I am afraid that he will be severely punished. And the usefulness of this stone is unknown, I'm afraid it's not as simple as the old monkey said. He made up his mind to throw the stone as soon as it reached the ground.

When he reached the top of the cave, Sun Hao finally found a passage to the outside world, and the entrance to the cave was so small that only one person could get into it. Sun Hao was still about to observe it, when he heard the old monkey say loudly below: "Shaoxia, take out your sect token, there is a ban in front." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, a gust of wind came from the entrance of the cave, almost blowing Sun Hao down. Sun Hao hurriedly took out the token, and the strong wind eased down.

At the top of the cave is the entrance, Sun Hao got closer and found that there was a thin layer of mucous membrane at the entrance of the cave, like the foam blown by a child, sticking to the entrance of the cave. But as soon as Sun Hao touched it, he found that the mucous membranes were biting cold, even under the baking of underground magma.

Sun Hao didn't dare to slack off, and took out the token to transport the aura. As soon as the mucous membrane saw the token, it was as if the ice and snow were melting, slowly revealing a passage. Sun Hao climbed the rock wall at the entrance of the cave and beckoned to the old monkey.

When the old monkey saw that Sun Hao had reached the top, he withdrew the aura that had been pushing upward, exhaled slowly, and said anxiously: "Young man, it's just one step away, go in!"

Sun Hao heard it, but he was not in a hurry, and turned to smile coldly at the old monkey. When the old monkey saw Sun Hao's smile, his face changed, and he shouted: "Boy, you dare!" immediately turned into a red light and flew up, wanting to stop Sun Hao,

But Sun Hao was at the entrance of the cave, too far away from him, and he could stop it.

I saw Sun Hao raise his palm, throw down the red stone in his hand, and jump on it with one turn.

The old monkey was shocked, he couldn't see Sun Hao's figure when he was only halfway there, but just caught the stone in mid-air.

Above is where the prohibition is, and the mucous membranes may sense the approaching old monkey, emitting a ray of colored light, and directly knocking the old monkey to the ground.

After the old monkey landed, ignoring the scorched skin on his body, he roared angrily: "Liar, you monks are all liars, I will kill you, kill you!" caused the surrounding fire spirit beasts to follow a terrible roar.

After Sun Hao climbed up, he heard the terrible screams from the ground, shook his head and smiled, and let out a long sigh of relief. If you want to borrow my knife, I'm afraid it's not so easy.

He paused for a moment, adjusted his breathing, and looked around. It was a tunnel, a bit like a fire spirit beast carved out, twisting and twisting upwards. Sun Hao knew that this must be the entrance to the cave, calmed down and walked forward.
