The distance of five hundred feet should have been a matter of seconds for monks like Li Changsheng and Xin Mingyue. However, the high temperature environment made them feel as if they were in lava, and the surrounding air was filled with hot breath. The two of them opened their shields in unison to resist the scorching temperature.
As it goes deeper, the temperature gradually rises, becoming more and more unbearably hot. They had to slow down their descent to slowly adapt to the high temperature environment.
The two finally arrived at the magma, and saw the hot magma tumbling below, like wild beasts, which was heart-stopping. The surrounding rock walls are so steep that it is difficult to even find a place to set foot.
However, in such a harsh environment, a golden phoenix fire as big as a fist floated quietly in the air, like a bright pearl, shedding golden flames, beautiful and mysterious.
"On the 58th, I plan to go down and drive the Golden Phoenix Fire up. Once it appears, you need to quickly capture it from above. The speed of the Golden Phoenix Fire is extremely fast. Fellow Taoist, you must remain highly vigilant to ensure that it does not Escape down into the lava.”
"Fairy Mingyue, please rest assured, I will go all out to ensure that no problems will arise."
Suddenly, Xin Mingyue's figure disappeared next to Li Changsheng, as if blending into the air. Even Li Changsheng was unable to accurately determine Xin Mingyue's specific location. He could only rely on his spiritual sense to perceive. However, Xin Mingyue's aura became weak and elusive, and sometimes even his spiritual sense could not sense her existence.
This technique is too mysterious. In comparison, the effect of my own invisibility cloak seems much rougher. Once the invisibility cloak uses spiritual power, it will reveal a clear aura, but the technique used by Xin Mingyue can hide the figure and even the aura so perfectly.
About an hour of incense had passed, and the magma underneath was still rolling, but Xin Mingyue didn't make any movement. Li Changsheng stayed in the air, not daring to breathe out, and the tension in his heart was like a tight bowstring. He knew very well that once the Golden Phoenix Fire was disturbed and caused it to dive into the depths of the magma, there would be no telling how long it would take for the Golden Phoenix Fire to emerge again.
At this moment, a white light suddenly flashed below, and a large formation emerged quietly. Li Changsheng looked at everything in front of him, amazed in his heart. He originally thought that Xin Mingyue disappeared to drive away the golden phoenix fire, but he did not expect that she would actually set up a large formation during this time.
Looking at the large formation in front of him, the doubts in Li Changsheng's heart finally dispersed like clouds, revealing the dawn of the truth. At this moment, he truly understood how Lin Yunshan died. Xin Mingyue mastered such a mysterious stealth technique that it was easy to ambush others. Lin Yunshan was also extremely frustrated. He walked into Xin Mingyue's trap in one move.
"Number 58, now the time is ripe to take action. You have to be fast. My magic circle can only last for one stick of incense at most, and then it will collapse on its own."
Li Changsheng stared at the magma. Suddenly, a large and airtight net quietly emerged, covering the entire area like a dragnet. That was Xin Mingyue's masterpiece, and she was trying her best to drive the golden phoenix fire towards Li Changsheng. However, the speed of the Golden Phoenix Fire was too fast, like a golden lightning, speeding over the magma. Although Xin Mingyue's speed was extremely fast, it seemed a little powerless in front of the Golden Phoenix Fire.
Suddenly, Jinfeng Yihuo seemed to notice something, turned around suddenly, and rushed towards the magma below. However, all this is in vain, the magic circle is like an invisible barrier, blocking the way of the golden phoenix fire.
The frightened Golden Phoenix Strange Fire was scurrying around above the magic circle, like a headless fly, trying to find a way out to dive into the magma below. However, in this airtight magic circle, every collision it made was firmly blocked.
Li Changsheng did not give it any chance to escape. At the moment when the golden phoenix fire was ready to attack again, Li Changsheng's golden black wings spread out instantly, like a golden lightning streaking through the sky. He moved and disappeared from the place. , appeared next to Jinfeng Yihuo.
The Golden Phoenix Fire felt a strong threat the moment Li Changsheng appeared. It immediately turned around and fled quickly in the other direction, trying to distance itself from Li Changsheng. However, Li Changsheng did not want to continue this boring chasing game. He took a deep breath, and a powerful spiritual power suddenly erupted from his body, surging out like a volcano erupting.
Because Li Changsheng's speed was so fast, Xin Mingyue, who was in the magic circle, could only see his afterimage flying through the void. She was just thinking about Li Changsheng's whereabouts, but a moment later, Li Changsheng appeared beside her. At this moment, the golden phoenix fire has been successfully captured by him, bound in the ice silk net, shining like a tamed monster.
"Number 58, follow me." Xin Mingyue's clear voice rang in the air, and she moved like a wisp of smoke flying toward a stone wall above. Li Changsheng followed closely behind.
A moment later, Xin Mingyue led Li Changsheng into a cave hidden in the illusion formation. Li Changsheng never expected that there was an illusion formation on the stone wall.
Li Changsheng recalled that the map Xin Mingyue gave him did not clearly indicate the existence of this cave. He knew in his heart that Xin Mingyue still had reservations about him.
"No. 58, please don't misunderstand that I am hiding something from you. I am a weak woman and cannot compare with late-stage monks like you, so I must leave a way out for myself. This is for self-protection. I hope you can understand."
Li Changsheng laughed and said: "Fairy Mingyue, let's separate the two as soon as possible. Leave the arrangement of this magic circle to me. I guarantee that even if it takes ten and a half years, it will not be able to escape from this magic circle. Don’t worry, I will handle it carefully.”
Li Changsheng, who looked like the wind, quickly set up a small stacked immortal formation. After checking again and again to ensure that the Immortal Formation was correct, he carefully released the Golden Phoenix Fire from the ice silk net.
The golden phoenix fire that had lost its restraints instantly became violent, like a golden gust of wind running wildly through the formation, trying to find a way out. However, all Jinfeng Yihuo's efforts were in vain.
Li Changsheng and Xin Mingyue were not in a hurry to separate the Golden Phoenix Fire and the Ten Thousand Years Fire Crystal. They knew that the Golden Phoenix Fire was just struggling out of instinct at this moment. The best time to separate would be when it completely understood that it could not escape. So, the two of them stood aside quietly, waiting for the opportunity to come.
After about a few hours, the Golden Phoenix Fire finally exhausted its strength and gradually calmed down, no longer as violent as before. At this time, Li Changsheng and Xin Mingyue began to separate the Golden Phoenix Fire and the Ten Thousand Years Fire Crystal. They concentrated on every step and carried out every step meticulously, not daring to be sloppy in the slightest to ensure that the separation could be completed smoothly.
