Inside the desert, the temperature gradually rises, and after walking more than 50 miles, it has reached nearly 40 degrees. The high temperature combined with the dryness makes it very rare to plant here, and occasionally one or two cacti are wilted listlessly.

Although there were a lot of people gathered in the periphery, not many actually came in. Along the way, Wan Peng and the others only met five people, three of whom walked outward, and judging from their expressions and actions, it was obvious that they couldn't stand the harsh environment inside the desert and took the initiative to quit. The other two walked in groups, but they walked slowly and were relatively well equipped, apparently with a lot of preparation.

Wan Peng and Xie Fei and Xie Ting, but they didn't stay. Xie Fei had experienced this kind of environment and wanted to remind Wan Peng to slow down a little, but Liyang kept urging in Wan Peng's inner world, and his tone was a little anxious, which made Wan Peng also feel that things might be a little unusual, so even if he knew that it would cost a lot to go on like this, he would only take a short break every other hour.

Near evening, the temperature plummeted, the temperature of more than 40 degrees during the day, in less than an hour, dropped to more than ten degrees, and when it was dark, it quickly became cold and biting. Wan Peng and Xie Fei Xie Ting found a place to rest for two hours, recovered their bodies, and continued to move forward.

The next day, the situation was similar to the day before. On the way, I didn't meet anyone, but I came across two corpses that had been almost dried, and the clothes on them were still intact, and it could be seen that they should not have been dead for a few days. In the evening, the mountain Xie Fei said could already be seen in the distance, and the lava on the top of the mountain slowly flowed down, emitting a red light in the dark night.

"Let's rest here in the evening. Wan Peng looked over there, "Tomorrow morning, we'll go before dawn." It is estimated that there are many cultivators in the vicinity, and they should all go for the treasures of heaven and earth, so everyone must be more careful. ”

Xie Fei and Xie Ting understood, and the three of them set up a tent, and Wan Peng laid out a few vigilance and defense formations around him, and then returned to the tent to cultivate. During this period, Wan Peng went to find Liyang once, and basically confirmed that it was indeed a demon refining pool. But Liyang had obviously become very anxious now, and according to him, he felt that there were some signs of instability in this demon refining pool.

The demon refining pond is the breeding ground of the demon, and it also matures with the maturity of the demon. Once ripe, it will show signs of instability, and when it breaks, the demon will break out of the air. In this space, if there really be any powerful demons, these people, including Wan Peng, are afraid that it will be difficult to escape.

Because in the secret realm, there are too many natural restrictions, and these restrictions are effective for cultivators, but have no effect on demons.

The purpose of Liyang letting Wan Peng come, in addition to finding out the truth, is more important is to determine the breaking time of the demon refining pool, if possible, through a special way, to delay the time when the demon comes out, so as to ensure the safety of Wan Peng. It's very passive and proactive. Maybe the people who discovered this secret realm didn't know that there was a demon refining pool here.

Of course, this is not accidental. The Demon Refining Pool, after thousands of years, has become something similar to a legend in the cultivator world. Over the years, cultivators and demons have been isolated from each other, and their understanding and information about demons have become less and less.

The day will be bright, and the three of them packed up and prepared to set off. It's still fifty or sixty miles away from that mountain, and the sand in the vicinity has decreased, and the rocks have increased, and the feeling of the Gobi Desert has reappeared. However, there were more cultivators I encountered, and when I walked inside, some of them were in groups of three or five, and there were more than ten people, stationed here. Seeing Wan Peng and the others walking by, they looked suspicious, but no one came out to find any trouble.

From their eyes, Wan Peng saw the danger. Legend has it that the place where the treasures of heaven and earth may be stored is so close, and these people are stopped here, there is only one possibility, there is danger ahead. It must be someone who has suffered a big loss, so that these people who are not completely sure stay here, both want to get the treasure, but also fear losing their lives.

Walking ten miles, Wan Peng found that there were several groups of people, following them from a distance. He doesn't interfere either, just follow it, at least for now, there is no malice.

Nearly thirty miles away from the mountain, the temperature suddenly rose, it should have exceeded fifty degrees, and the immediate feeling of the air in contact with the skin was hot. Wan Peng used the condensation technique, although the problem of high temperature was solved, but the spiritual power consumption was clearly visible.

There are all kinds of indications that this is not a suitable place for cultivators to live. Even for foundation builders, it is not suitable for a short period of exploration here.

"Not good!" Liyang, who had been silent, suddenly shouted, and Wan Peng was about to ask what was wrong, but he felt a clear shake under his feet.

The landslide experienced in Lingyun Mountain before made Wan Peng have a heartfelt fear of this shaking of the ground. Could it be that the previous scene will be repeated? The soul eater also appeared here?

However, Wan Peng soon discovered that his anxiety was unnecessary. The ground did not continue to shake, but the lava that had been flowing from the top of the mountain suddenly stopped flowing outward. The surroundings became extremely quiet, and after a while, the magma on the mountain slowly turned from red to gray, and the air around it slowly fell.

"The demon refining pool is a little unstable. I need some time to feel and analyze it. After Liyang finished speaking, he entered the state of sitting, and Wan Peng stopped moving forward, and stayed in place with Xie Fei and Xie Ting, waiting for news from Liyang.

The temperature around me began to drop, and it was already in the thirties as evening approached. Seeing that the lava showed no signs of erupting again, many cultivators from the periphery came to the spiritual head and approached the direction of the mountain in groups. All of a sudden, the number of people who never moved forward in a few directions actually reached more than a hundred. Some of the fast-moving ones have already begun to search and excavate at the foot of the mountain, trying to find what they are looking for.

After another half an hour, Liyang finally opened his eyes. He sighed, "Alas, we're still late. This demon refining pool is about to break in a few days, and it is already very difficult to seal it now. Let's step back, it will soon spew out its first demonic fire. These lavas are actually caused by the demon fire in the original demon refining pool. ”

"Demon fire?" Wan Peng was a little puzzled, "What is it?

Liyang's eyes were blurred, "Demon fire is one of the cradles of demon gestation." The fiery demon must initially grow and mature from the demon fire. The demon fire is also one of the most domineering fires in the world, it is fierce and dry, these cultivators who are close to the mountain, it won't be long before there will be basically no one alive. ”

After hearing this, Wan Peng's face changed greatly, and he directly withdrew from the inner realm, and while preparing to retreat, he used the transmission charm spell to other cultivators who were approaching, and shouted, "Danger! Everyone retreat!

As soon as the spell was sent into the sky, it turned into countless streamers and scattered in all directions. Every streamer repeated his voice, but these people, who had worked so hard to find the treasure, and finally waited for the opportunity, where would they listen to a stranger?

What about others, Wan Peng doesn't care now, he has been reminded, he feels that he is at least not too selfish. At the same time as the spell was sent, he had already retreated quickly with Xie Fei and Xie Ting, and now that the temperature was low to more than ten degrees, there was no big problem in moving at high speed.

Along the way, there were actually cultivators rushing inside. Seeing Wan Peng leaving quickly, he actually ran backwards indiscriminately.

After retreating for more than thirty miles, the ground suddenly shook again, and then a dull roar came from the ground, followed by another tremor on the ground.

With a loud bang, the crater that had been blocked by the cooled lava rushed open again, and a blood-red light rushed directly into the sky, and the entire space was reflected in blood-red. The sky was centered on that red light, forming an eerie red, gradually darkening red.

Those cultivators who were close to the mountain all stopped what they were doing at this time and looked up at the sky.

After a while, with that red light as the center, a rain of fire fell from the sky!

Within a radius of fifty miles, almost all of them were covered by this rain of fire. The place where Wan Peng was on the edge of the fire rain, only sporadic fires scattered from the air, passing by, Wan Peng could clearly feel the violence and domineering of this demon fire. A chill surged up in his heart, if it wasn't for Liyang's previous reminder, the consequences would have been unimaginable now.

Not far from him, there was a cultivator who tried to test this demon fire with his hands, but the fire entered the exorcism body and ignited from the inside out, and in a short time it was already burned clean, and no ashes were left!

Wan Peng's previous learning of the corpse fire, whether it is speed or power, in front of this demon fire, it is simply a pediatric.

The demon fire erupted outward for nearly a moment, and during this time, except for the periphery, Wan Peng did not find anyone successfully escaping from the inside. Eventually, the demonic fire disappeared from the crater little by little, and the rain of fire stopped. Strangely, the rain of fire did not raise the temperature around it, and it was still cold.

The crater is now red, and it looks like it is completely melted, as if it could be melted away by the wind.

"Quick, take advantage of now, quickly approach this volcano, we will seal the demon refining pool, and delay the time for the demon to be born! Hurry! Otherwise, we may all be in danger!" Liyang shouted extremely excitedly in his inner world, and Wan Peng did not hesitate, and ran towards the volcano as fast as he could. Xie Fei Xie Ting followed behind him, and the distance gradually widened.

Along the way, Wan Peng could see the ground burned by the demon fire, and the further he went, the more potholes appeared. Those cultivators had already disappeared, and there was no time to get out of the secret realm.

"Chairman, Chairman of the Organizing Committee!" a middle-aged man stumbled into the meeting hall of the Organizing Committee of the Northeast Cultivation District Martial Arts Exercise, "Big, it's not good! We have lost contact with the secret realm of the training ground during the foundation building period, and we have completely lost contact! All spiritual power, spiritual sense, and other information perception have all been interrupted!"

"What?" the old man bounced up directly from his seat, stretched out his hand and pinched out a magic trick, and soon his face showed a look of disappointment and worry, "Alas, quickly gather all the major sects and come to the council hall quickly! In addition, immediately end the qi refining and condensation practice, and all the personnel will be sent out! Continue to find a way to contact the Foundation Building Secret Realm, and if you are contacted, immediately pass on all the personnel! Organize elite forces to see if you can still enter the Foundation Building Secret Realm, and if you can get in, send someone over to investigate!"

The middle-aged man had to be ordered to leave, and the old man slammed the table hard, "It's broken, it's broken, something big may happen, it's broken!"
