Zhang Liang looked at the lava river in front of him and frowned deeply.
He wouldn't want to swim across the river if he could help it. There are all kinds of creatures in the magma river outside, and there may not be any here.
He guessed that although his fire demon spirit body had been completed, this third trial was not over yet.
Since the Vulcan body was mentioned in the trial, it should naturally exist. And the most likely place is on the desk in front of the big snake in the center of the magma.
"Rock climbing, alchemy furnace, stairs, lava river..."
The first three are not difficult, only rock climbing is relatively easy.
The reason why I was able to pass through the alchemy furnace safely and quickly was probably because I had mastered the Fish and Fire Body Refining Technique, so I didn't feel the difficulty.
But from the state of Lan Yan and Bei Xuanling, Zhang Liang guessed that the pill furnace trial shouldn't be easy, but he didn't know it.
As for the ladder, Zhang Liang is sure that it is very difficult. Because if he follows common sense, he can only reach the 800th level. If he wants to go up, he needs to move and adapt one step at a time, and the progress will never be fast.
If you are not careful, the thousand steps will crush you and you will fall on the spot.
Relying on the divine way of giant beasts and the secret technique of swallowing the sea, he completed the transformation of the fire demon spirit body ahead of schedule, so he could quickly climb the last two hundred stairs.
Ordinarily, this should be considered cheating.
So, if the first three small trials were already extremely dangerous, will this magma river be easy?
Zhang Liang thought for a moment and took out a square tentacle, more than fifty meters long, from his storage bag. This is the octopus tentacle at the peak of foundation building. It should be able to block the blood and fire in the short term.
Zhang Liang threw the tentacle into the magma river. In an instant, the huge tentacles burned quickly. Under the power of blood and fire, the tentacles without any power quickly began to smell of meat.
The blood and fire followed the tentacles and burned all the way to Zhang Liang's body.
However, Zhang Liang, who also mastered the inheritance of blood and fire, would not be harmed.
After waiting for a full stick of incense, the tentacles were almost incinerated and no living beings appeared in the magma river. Zhang Liang breathed a sigh of relief.
"Is there no life in the river? Then what is the significance of the existence of this river?"
"There is no danger warning in the World Divine Mirror, which at least means there is no danger for the time being."
Zhang Liang boldly stepped into the magma with both feet. Now, the temperature of the magma could no longer cause any harm to him, so he was naturally not afraid of the magma.
There was still no response from the Mirror of Vision. Zhang Liang breathed a sigh of relief. He immediately tried to use the secret technique of water escape to directly cross the magma river and reach the giant snake corpse in the center.
Originally, Zhang Liang was prepared to fail. After all, this was magma, not water, so it was natural to fail.
But unfortunately, he succeeded.
"Brush~"
Zhang Liang crossed the entire magma river in one fell swoop and appeared on the altar where the giant snake was.
"Is it that easy?"
Zhang Liang himself was very surprised. Is the third trial really over?
"Buzz~"
However, at this moment, when Zhang Liang stood on the altar, the entire altar shook violently.
Zhang Liang's expression became tense for a moment, and he looked at everything around him warily.
As a result, he was dumbfounded the next moment and felt that his heart had stopped.
Because, when he saw the giant snake, it actually raised its head, looked at him with its huge red eyes, and even spit out the snake letter.
"Live?"
Zhang Liang was kidding, how could he still meet a living creature after so many years?
No wonder there is no danger in the magma river. The danger has been in his eyes from the beginning, and he is lying on the altar.
But, this thing must be seven or eight hundred meters tall? What level of powerhouse does this have to be?
Even if it is the divine way of giant beasts, it still requires ten feet of foundation, one hundred feet of golden elixir, and one thousand feet of Nascent Soul. Although this big guy is not a thousand feet tall, it is far more than a hundred feet tall.
This means that this thing is at least a golden elixir demon, or a third-level ferocious beast.
With his current strength in the middle stage of foundation building, let alone fighting, if the opponent swings his tail towards him, he will probably be able to crush him to death.
However, Zhang Liang was still calm and did not act rashly because the World Divine Mirror had not given any warning of danger.
He was ready. Once the World Divine Mirror gave a strong warning of danger, he would immediately use the World Divine Mirror to teleport out and abandon this secret realm.
However, after waiting for a while, Zhang Liang and the giant snake faced off for more than ten breaths, but the other party did not move, and the World Divine Mirror also did not move.
It wasn't until more than ten breaths passed that Zhang Liang calmed down.
He felt a little strange. It was just that the World Divine Mirror had no danger warning, and there was no hint in the Three Lives Sutra of All Things about what species this giant snake was. The two sides were only less than a hundred meters apart at the moment. The Three Lives of All Things Sutra should be able to judge the size of this snake.
I couldn't help but take a breath, and then walked towards the desk dozens of meters away, with some things on it. Since the snake didn't respond, it shouldn't be a problem to take a look at it yourself, right?
Sure enough, even if Zhang Liang moved, the giant snake still did not respond, still keeping its head raised and looking at Zhang Liang quietly.
In front of the desk.
Zhang Liang scanned the table and found three flame tokens placed on the table. Next to the token, there is a book that is burning with flames. It has been burning for who knows how many years. In addition, it is a golden fish skin picture.
"Demon Fire Order?"
Zhang Liang immediately thought of the reward for the third trial, which had the Demon Fire Order clearly written on it.
"Did you clear the level?"
Zhang Liang did not immediately pick up the demon fire token, but looked at a golden fish skin picture of unknown grade beside the desk.
The fish skin picture says: "Pick up the Demon Fire Token, the trial is over."
But the fish skin picture also said: "Open the Book of Fire, the trial continues, and start the Fire God trial. During the trial, once the thought of giving up is determined, the trial will be deemed to have failed and the trial will be expelled. Everyone There is only one chance for the Vulcan Trial.”
"The Vulcan Trial?"
Zhang Liang knew that this was the only reward. Once he completed the Vulcan Trial, he would definitely obtain the Vulcan Body.
Although he didn't know what the Vulcan Body was, he knew that it was definitely stronger than the Fire Demon Spirit Body. The fire demon spirit body is actually quite powerful.
Zhang Liang, who inherited the inheritance of blood and fire, is covered in blood and fire. It can be said that no one in the same area dares to provoke him. Otherwise, if he is contaminated, his limbs will be severed, or he will be burned to death.
Zhang Liang naturally wants a Vulcan body that is stronger than the Blood and Fire inheritance. Who doesn’t want something else to be stronger?
Zhang Liang hesitated for a long time and repeatedly looked up at the giant snake staring at him. In the end, he made a decision and chose the Vulcan Trial. Even if he couldn't complete the trial, with the Divine Mirror of the Boundary around, he would still have a chance to escape. The worst-case scenario is that the Vulcan Body is not obtained, and the Demonic Fire Order is not obtained either.
There are countless opportunities in the Immortal Sea. If you don't get it, you won't get it. Anyway, you still have an extremely powerful black ancestor, and you also have the inheritance of top-notch techniques such as the Behemoth Divine Way.
Thinking of this, Zhang Liang suddenly became more enlightened.
Now that he had made his decision, Zhang Liang immediately opened the Book of Fire without hesitation.
The moment Zhang Liang opened the book, hundreds of feet of flames suddenly burst out from the lava rivers in all directions.
"Wow~"
The raging flames enveloped the altar and obscured his sight. Zhang Liang felt his feet were empty. When he quickly looked down, he saw that he was still standing on top of a piece of magma. Where was the altar?
"Where's the snake?"
Zhang Liang suddenly came back to his senses and looked around. Sure enough, he saw the huge shadow in the flames a hundred meters away.
"Hey~"
Just listen, the wind is howling and the heat waves are rolling around you. In the flames, a huge snake's tail swung sideways, coming very fast.
Zhang Liang was horrified, has this started?
So, the so-called Vulcan Trial is to do this giant snake?
Are you kidding? Even if it is a trial, it should be a trial where you meet your opponent, right? What kind of realm is this giant snake? How can I fight it with its size?
It was too late, but it was too soon. The snake's tail swept across so fast that Zhang Liang couldn't avoid it at all.
At this speed, it is impossible to reach the peak of Foundation Establishment. It is faster than the Mantis Slash of the Siren Mantis. This only shows that the snake he has to face is stronger than imagined.
"Swish, swish, swish~"
Zhang Liang did not dare to hesitate, and ten black fish guards rose up into the sky.
"Boom~"
"Kakaka~"
They had just protected Zhang Liang when they were swept to pieces by that tail. The ten black fish guards were all shattered without even blocking a single breath.
Fortunately, Zhang Liang reacted quickly enough. In the moment when the black fish guard resisted the snake's tail, he stood up from the ground and jumped into the air.
"Wait, something seems wrong."
Zhang Liang suddenly felt something was wrong, but before he could think about it, he saw a huge snake head dozens of feet long protruding from the flames, with its mouth wide open.
Zhang Liang could clearly see that there was flame condensed in the giant snake's throat, and it was getting ready to attack.
No, as soon as Zhang Liang appeared, the flames were already swept down, and it was also so fast that Zhang Liang had no time to react.
"Bang~"
The next moment, Jie Jie was hit hard, his whole body smashed into the magma like a cannonball, and hit the mountain rocks hard.
"Kakaka~"
At that moment, Zhang Liang felt that dozens of bones in his body were broken, and blood spurted out from his mouth, which was then burned and dispersed by the magma.
Zhang Liang swore that it was the first time in his life that he was so seriously injured.
"It hurts."
Zhang Liang was shocked, this is just a spanking, there is no way to spank him! I can't match the speed of this giant snake, and the difference in strength is even greater. I can't defend myself against any attack from others, so what's the point?
For example, before Zhang Liang came back to his senses at this moment, he saw the huge snake head under the magma, approaching quickly and opening its mouth.
"Are you going to die here?"
Zhang Liang was sure, let alone him, even if Fang Hui was here, he would only be beaten in seconds. Compared with himself, he might not be much better.
"No, why hasn't the Divine World Mirror responded? Could this kind of trial be able to block the ability of the Divine World Mirror?"
"That's wrong! Even the Black Ancestor can't sense the power of the World Divine Mirror."
"The Three-Life Sutra of All Things also conveys nothing. Could it be that the Three-Life Sutra of All Things is no longer useful here?"
"No, the World God Mirror is the foundation for me to establish myself in this world. It allows me to travel between two unknown places. The distance is endless. It cannot be suppressed by the so-called Fire God Trial. After all, this giant No matter how powerful the snake is, at best it can reach the Nascent Soul and reach the sky."
However, if there is no problem with the World Divine Mirror and the Three Life Sutras of All Things, then the problem can only be the trial itself.
Looking at the giant snake that opened its mouth and bit it, Zhang Liang had a suspicion.
"Gudu!"
At that moment, Zhang Liang did not dodge or avoid, and allowed the giant snake to bite him in one bite.
He didn't believe it, he didn't believe this giant snake was real.
Even if he saw it, even if the giant snake destroyed half of his body in one blow, he still didn't believe it.
He never believed that such a challenge could be withstood in a foundation-building period.
Zhang Liang believes that there is a foundation-building and golden elixir.
But what kind of talent does a foundation-building expert possess? And how can this giant snake be compared to the ordinary golden elixir demon?
So, he didn't believe it.
The next moment, Zhang Liang felt that the world was spinning, and for a while, he seemed to be swallowed into a certain place.
Half of his body was soaked in a pool with a strange stench. The water was green because the blood and fire were burning here, so he could see clearly that it was green water.
"In the belly of a snake?"
Zhang Liang realized where he was, and at the same time he felt that his chest was almost numb, and an unspeakable pain hit his heart.
"Stomach acid? I'm being corroded."
Zhang Liang raised his head from the water and saw only his arms, palms, and finger bones, which were covered in blood and flesh.
"One sword skill."
Zhang Liang shouted violently, and used all his strength to perform a final sword attack. This time he cut open a large piece of flesh and blood, and blood poured on Zhang Liang's face, which was extremely real. However, the flesh and blood that had been cut open was recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Immediately afterwards, he felt that his bones were softening. The stomach acid could melt even the bones at the fifth level of body training.
"It's not true. There's no way this is true."
At this moment, Zhang Liang felt unexpectedly firm in his heart.
After a few breaths, Zhang Liang was a little confused and found that he had turned into a skeleton. At this moment, he wanted to laugh. Is this the case? Am I not dead yet?
Then, Zhang Liang's consciousness began to become a little confused.
In the dark, he felt that many ancient runes were intertwined, and it seemed to form something, imprinted in his mind.
I don't know how long it took, Zhang Liang's consciousness began to return, and he quickly woke up.
When he opened his eyes, what he saw was a river of lava. In the middle of the river was a bone altar with a desk on the altar.
However, he didn't see the huge snake again.
Suddenly, some information emerged in Zhang Liang's mind.
The Vulcan Body is a magical body of fire that combines the essence of the sun, the fire of the netherworld, and the fire of blood. The three fires can transform into each other and merge with each other. After obtaining this divine body, getting close to the fire element, and practicing fire-attribute skills, one can travel thousands of miles in a day, comparable to the spiritual root of the heavenly veins.
"Hiss~"
Comparable to Tianlinggen?
Zhang Liang's eyes widened immediately, Tianlinggen! He couldn't even imagine that his spiritual roots could actually be comparable to this kind of spiritual roots?
If this is the case, what kind of heavenly spiritual roots do you still pursue? Wouldn’t it be enough to just switch to fire-attribute exercises?
Zhang Liang's head was agitated and he was filled with emotions.
However, as he learned all the information about the Vulcan Body, his excited face suddenly froze.
Because he discovered that although the Vulcan Body was comparable to the Heavenly Vein Spiritual Root in practicing fire-attribute skills, it was actually limited by the Spiritual Root itself.
In other words, he just has a cultivation speed that is comparable to Tianlinggen. However, he is not Tianlinggen.
Once the spiritual root limit is reached, the Vulcan body cannot cross the limit of the spiritual root.
For example, if a seventh-level spiritual root can only be cultivated to the peak of foundation building, then Zhang Liang can quickly cultivate to the peak of foundation building through fire attribute skills.
However, it is equally difficult to go further and condense the golden elixir.
"What are you doing?"
Zhang Liang twitched the corner of his mouth, thinking that he no longer had to think of ways to improve his spiritual roots, so it was just a gimmick.
"Huh~"
Zhang Liang breathed a sigh of relief and looked at his feet. He was standing on the edge of the magma river. It was as if he had never been to the central altar at all.
In fact, Zhang Liang guessed that he might have never been there. When he stepped into the magma river with both feet, the magma river trial had already begun, but he didn't know it at the time.
Zhang Liang pushed out of the lava river, and when he looked at the steps going up and down, he still didn't see Lan Yan and Bei Xuanling.
Guessing that the two of them might not even pass the alchemy furnace test, Zhang Liang swam directly across the magma river. This time he didn't have to worry about anything.
It stands to reason that his third trial has been completed.
Sure enough, Zhang Liang did not encounter any accidents this time.
He came to the desk, and there were indeed three flame tokens, a Vulcan Book, and a golden page on it.
However, on the golden page at this moment, there is an extra sentence on the line "Demon Fire Order".
"With this order, you can join the Fire Tribe."
Yes, it’s just one more sentence and it’s gone.
Zhang Liang picked up a Demon Fire Token. He thought about it for a moment and wanted to get the second one, but his hands were blown away by an invisible force.
"Okay! Just one, so what should I do now?"
Zhang Liang put away the demon fire order, looked around, and found that the only way here was to the altar.
So, he walked to the center of the bone altar.
As a result, when Zhang Liang stood here, a bright light suddenly bloomed under his feet.
The next second, the scenery in front of Zhang Liang changed. He suddenly appeared on a strange formation, surrounded by burnt black volcanic rocks.
"Is this the entrance to the volcanic secret realm?"
Zhang Liang was surprised to find that he came out and appeared directly at the entrance of the volcano secret realm.
At that time, everyone entered the secret realm through this formation.
However, now the inside of the secret realm seems to be blocked by Fang Hui's large formation, and I don't know if I can still enter.
Zhang Liang jumped a few times on the formation, but did not fall directly from the formation. I don't know if it was because the formation had been blocked.
It's a pity that I originally wanted to bring Bei Xuanling back, but now she is still stuck in the trial.
However, the third trial only lasts for ten days. At most, if you wait a few days, Bei Xuanling and the others should be able to come out.
If you can't get out, you really can't get out.
Suddenly, Zhang Liangliang moved his head and slashed through a volcanic rock hundreds of meters away with a sword.
"Buzz~"
I saw a black starfish shouting in surprise, and a shield barrier appeared on its body. However, under Zhang Liang's sword, the shield shattered.
"Keep someone under the sword, Brother Blood Shark keep someone under the sword."
I saw this sea-colored starfish transforming into a man in black. He said with a panicked expression: "Brother Blood Shark, I have absolutely no ill intentions. I stayed here after being expelled purely to wait for my wife."
"Um?"
"Haixing also has a wife?"
The black starfish quickly explained: "We are not from the Red Star Clan. We are the Twin Starfish, a small clan. People in our clan will always find a unique partner in their lives."
"It turns out you're from Twin Beach, so you can just stay here and wait! However, others may not necessarily keep you alive."
Zhang Liang rarely showed mercy, not because of anything else, but because there really is a place called Twin Beach, and there is also a group of Twin Starfish, and it is said that everyone is a love species.
There is no need for him to kill anyone on sight, and besides, he doesn't hate this ethnic group.
"Brush~"
Zhang Liang jumped straight up, and after secretly planting some spiritual insects here, he found a random place in the underwater volcano group, laid out a concealment formation, and sat cross-legged in it.
Lan Yan is a girl who has her own pursuits. If her character is real, then I would quite like her.
Now that Bei Xuanling has been taken under his command, there is no reason for him to let her go back. What's more, how many people can protect her in Beibei Haiyu now?
At that time, if there are strong men from the Ten Thousand Demons Palace who are directly kidnapped by him, their secrets may be exposed.
Therefore, Bei Xuanling had to go with him.
Just one day later.
People are being expelled from the volcano secret realm one after another. Once they are expelled, they will appear directly outside the secret realm. Therefore, the barrier set up by Fang Hui can only prevent people from entering, but it cannot prevent the trialists from being expelled.
Most of these people stayed in Xianhuo Plain for seven days and then were expelled directly.
Calculating, I should have stayed in the third trial for two to three days.
After these people came out, they left as soon as possible. There were very few people staying. They were probably reported by the Hui people.
However, Zhang Liang sneered. Now that all the demons in the Hundred Demons Gathering and the great foundation-building demons have fallen, even if they go back, they probably won't come back again in a short time.
However, the Ten Thousand Demon Mansion will probably know about today’s incident soon. After all, people like Fang Hui and Da Zhenshou all have destiny monuments, and the shattering of the destiny monuments already illustrates the problem.
Therefore, after this incident, the volcano secret realm will not be able to come in the short term.
It is worth mentioning that the black starfish from Twin Beaches actually waited for his wife. The two of them, one big and one small, fled away immediately after leaving the underwater volcano.
Seven days later.
Through the spirit insects, Zhang Liang saw Lan Yan and Bei Xuanling appearing almost at the same time.
Obviously, obviously, the two failed to complete the trial.
After the two appeared together, they searched the area.
And Zhang Liang came out of the hiding formation and stood on the top of a mountain openly.
The two of them sensed Zhang Liang and swam over immediately.
Lan Yan: "Blood Shark, have you completed the third trial? We didn't see you on the stairs."
Zhang Liang said calmly: "It's not finished yet. There is a river of lava on top of the stairs, and there is a dragon in it, so you can't swim across it."
"Is that so?"
Lan Yan was doubtful, but considering the difficulty of this trial, he didn't ask further.
Naturally, Zhang Liang was not prepared to tell her the truth. They would not be able to enter for the rest of their lives anyway, so they would never know that they had inherited the Vulcan Body.
However, Zhang Liang looked at Bei Xuanling and said, "Follow me later."
"oh."
Bei Xuanling sighed in his heart. She might not be able to return to Beibei Sea Territory for the time being, but he immediately said: "Can I send a message to the clan to say that she is safe?"
Zhang Liang shook his head: "No, from now on, you are dead. When you reach the peak of foundation building, and even condense into golden elixir, and no one dares to take advantage of your fairy beads anymore, that will be the time for you to return. Of course, If I need it, I might let you go back in advance."
Lan Yan: "What about me? Can I go to Qianli Coral Reef with you?"
Zhang Liang shook his head: "Of course not, unless you and I sign a master-servant contract."
"Forget it."
Lan Yan paused: "No matter what, we can be considered friends now, right? My next step is to go to the Ten Thousand Demons Mansion. I hope to meet you again in the Ten Thousand Demons Mansion in the future."
"good."
