Chen Ying's mother has lived in Zhuoyuan North Point for several years. Although her mobility is inconvenient, she still saw many secrets of Zhuoyuan North Point that even hunter mages cannot know. 【Read the latest chapter】
According to Chen Ying's memory of the topography described by her mother, a group of people arrived at the foot of a flat-topped mountain rising from the ground. Chen Ying said that his mother had been living near this mountain.
"This rising flat-topped mountain is so unexpected. All we have seen after walking for so long is the flat landscape of the northern corner of the Akihara, without even a hint of undulating mountains. As a result, this mountain suddenly appeared in this flat land. On the earth." Zhang Xiaohou raised his head and looked up at the flat-topped mountain along the vertical cliff.
It actually looks more like a volcano. Unlike most volcanoes that are wide at the bottom and narrow at the top, it is more like a volcanic column inserted straight into the blue sky. If you can't fly, you can't climb up at all.
"Are you sure there will be Fire Tribulation Fruit in a place like this? Even if there is, how are we going to get there?" Mo Fan asked.
"The interior of this Fire Pillar Mountain is empty. I heard my mother say that there should be a crack under the mountain that can enter the interior. Let's first find the crack that can enter the interior." Chen Ying said.
Around this huge Fire Pillar Mountain, everyone actually found a gap leading to the inside of the mountain. Compared to the entire huge Fire Pillar Mountain, this is just a small crack, but to humans it is a torn hole. The cave becomes wider as you go inside.
Walking along this crack, you can feel that its interior is clearly meandering upwards. The rocks inside are in the shape of flames, semi-crystals and semi-rocks, and are very smooth. As you walk forward, you pick up some spiritual objects. Seed fragments, I think this cave is also a good place for tempering. If you search carefully, you will definitely be able to find one or two more spiritual seeds.
"Keng! Keng!!"
Suddenly, a sound like metal tapping came from the invisible cave. The mountain was already silent, so the sudden sound of this sound made everyone feel nervous.
This kind of metal tapping sound is not the crisp and clear one you usually hear. It has a dull and frictional noise. When it reaches the ears, it is like the sound of nails scraping on a blackboard. There was a loud noise, and the cave where we were walking was winding and dark and silent. Suddenly, there was this creepy sound coming into my mind from an unknown direction, and I felt particularly panicked.
"I shouldn't be the only one who heard it, right?" Zhang Xiaohou looked around with chattering teeth.
"What do you think it will be?" Zhao Manyan said.
"No matter what it is, just keep moving forward. There's no point worrying about it now. If it's hidden in the dark, we don't even want to find it." Mo Fan looked nonchalant.
In Mo Fan's opinion, if this kind of creature had the ability to devour all of their group of people, it would be fine just to attack them directly. There would be no need to scare everyone with such a sound.
With this inexplicable vigilance, everyone walked even faster. This flat-topped mountain has an extremely high altitude. It would take a long time to climb up directly, not to mention that they were walking along the winding interior like this. The cave mountain road climbed up.
Along the way, everyone heard that sound a few more times, but the creature didn't appear at all, and gradually everyone didn't take it seriously.
Walking up in the dark is a very boring process and it is easy to fall into fear. Fortunately, everyone is brave and has not been disturbed by that strange sound and has been distracted for the time being.
I don’t know how high I climbed the mountain, but hot lava flowed out from the gaps in the stone walls around the inner mountain path, and converged into a stream of lava flowing slowly in the gully.
The fire light emitted by the lava turned into natural lighting, allowing everyone to see the surrounding situation clearly. Zhao Manyan did not need to cast radiance for a long time. The lava liquid on both sides had illuminated the inner mountain road as if it were daytime. Just as transparent.
"Haha, Zhuoyuan is not that unsatisfactory. Look at the surrounding lava stream. It is like a street lamp and a red carpet, welcoming us!" Zhang Xiaohou walked in the front, looking a little smug.
The temperature of the lava is very high. Ordinary people will be burned to ashes very quickly in the lava. Mages can barely save their bodies, but after a long time, they will still be burned to the point where only bones and dregs are left. Fire mages It can barely withstand the temperature of the lava. It depends on the level of cultivation. Those with high cultivation level will have no problem bathing in the lava...
Mo Fan himself has not reached this level. He tried to poke his finger into the molten liquid flowing next to it. It was very hot, and it was not fatal if it was not fatal. But how can I put it, it was a bit like putting your hand into boiling water!
"By the way, have you ever felt that the lava stream is getting wider and wider?" Chen Ying said coldly.
This sentence reminded Mo Fan that the internal mountain roads are narrow and wide, but the overall shape is like an underground river in a cave that can be passed by people. It winds up and the lava slowly flows out from some gaps. , at first it was like spring water overflowing, and the bright red one became everyone's guiding light, but now it seems that the low-lying areas, ravines, stone marks, and mountain steps on both sides have been filled with this lava, and some places are even about to overflow and overflow. We have reached the mountain trail that everyone wants to walk on.
"There should be more magma up here. It's okay, the magma will always flow downward. The space below is so big that it won't fill up our road." Zhao Manyan said.
"That's what I say...but what if it's another reason?" Xinxia said worriedly.
"What's the reason?" Zhang Xiaohou asked.
While they were talking, Mo Fan had been standing next to the lava stream. He observed the flow of molten metal in the magma stream very carefully, and he clearly remembered that the molten water in the magma stream was slow before everyone spoke. Flow, until now, the molten magma began to pour into the lower areas in a hurry. Even because there is too much bright red slurry accumulated in this area, they have begun to spread on the roads that everyone walks on.
Less than a minute has passed!
"I think we should leave here as soon as possible!" Mo Fan's face was completely different from before, and he said in a very positive tone.
"Why?" Zhao Manyan and Zhang Xiaohou, who were still thinking about the extremely valuable Fire Tribulation Fruit, asked.
Chen Ying also didn't want to give up, because the Fire Tribulation Fruit was on the top of this flat-topped volcano.
"I said leave quickly, leave quickly!" Mo Fan didn't have time to explain and shouted to everyone.
