Lava Road

Chapter 109 Lava Road

One second they were at loggerheads, the next they suddenly made peace.

This refers to Ji Yin, Qing Yi, and Man Hu Zi.

"The Ice and Fire Path is about to open, let's go."

As the bearded man spoke, he walked in front.

Ji Yin and Qing Yi followed closely behind, with Han Li sandwiched between them.

Zhang Feng and Wu Chou lagged behind.

"Fellow Daoist Wu, what are your thoughts upon seeing this scene?"

Looking at Wu Chou, whose face was gloomy and terrifying, Zhang Feng couldn't help but make a teasing remark.

"Heh, Zhang Feng, you dare to laugh at me? Wasn't your ancestor also so eager and attentive to Han Li?"

"Let's not talk about each other!"

Wu Chou glanced coldly at Zhang Feng.

Zhang Feng smiled slightly. The allure of the Void Heaven Cauldron to Qing Yi was indeed greater than that to his newly recognized junior.

There was nothing they could do; it was the number one treasure of the Chaotic Star Sea.

Even the three Nascent Soul cultivators, Tianxing Shuangsheng, Liudao Jisheng, and Wan Sangu, whose strength was unparalleled in the Chaotic Star Sea, dared not claim to be unmoved by this treasure.

"Feng'er, I need to go into the inner hall with two Nascent Soul cultivators to search for treasures."

"The inner palace of the Void Heaven Palace is extremely dangerous. If you do not intend to enter, after passing through the two trials in the outer palace and obtaining the treasure, leave as soon as possible, lest you lose your life in vain."

Qingyi suddenly transmitted his voice to Zhang Feng.

"Don't worry, Ancestor, I will do what I can."

"I don't want to miss this opportunity to enter the inner hall and witness the grand occasion of the seniors winning the Void Heaven Cauldron, with the Ancestor protecting me."

Faced with Qingyi's sudden concern, Zhang Feng thought for a moment and then gave a normal reply.

"Well, that's fine. It'll be good to broaden your horizons."

"Even Ji Yin was able to bring his mid-stage Core Formation grandson into the inner hall, so I'm no worse than him. Besides, your cultivation level is sufficient."

.

Qingyi nodded in agreement with Zhang Feng's idea.

The group stopped in front of the Ice and Fire Path.

Ji Yin casually released a soundproof array.

"Disciple, this second trial, the Ice and Fire Path, also involves random teleportation. We'll meet at the end of the Ice and Fire Path."

"If you want to take that passage, although I can't personally guide you through, I can still give you one or two treasures to keep warm."

Upon hearing this, Han Li pondered for a moment and then realized the profound meaning of the extreme yin, so he decisively chose the lava path.

"I happen to have a fire-resistant robe on me, so it's best to take the lava path!"

Ji Yin's expression remained unchanged. After a moment's thought, he took out a white jade pendant from his storage bag and handed it to Han Li.

"Take this. Keep it safe. With your cultivation level and the help of this item, you will definitely be able to pass through the lava road safely."

Seeing this, the bearded man laughed and said, "I didn't expect that someone as stingy as you, Ji Yin, would be so generous for once."

"Isn't this the white rhinoceros horn pendant you've treasured for so long?"

Upon hearing this, Ji Yin smiled slightly: "My disciple's cultivation is still shallow, and these are things that a master should take care of."

"Besides, I'm going to take the Mystic Crystal Path, so this thing isn't of much use to me."

"Indeed, I recall that Brother Man seems to have an Ice Pearl. Why don't you lend it to my apprentice as well?"

"After all, Brother Man wouldn't want anything to happen to his apprentice, would he?"

Wu Ai stared intently at the white rhinoceros pendant in Han Li's hand, his jealousy evident in his words.

The bearded man snorted coldly, took out an ice-blue pearl, and handed it to Han Li.

"I certainly won't let him die so easily."

"Kid, you're lucky this time, here you go."

Wu Chou, standing to the side, stared wide-eyed, his face filled with greed and disbelief.

Then Ji Yin and Man Hu Zi turned around and looked at Qing Yi, who was watching the show with a smile.

Their intentions were clear: it was time for him to bring out some treasures.

Qingyi immediately understood, groping around with both hands, looking embarrassed.

"Good, good! With these two treasures in hand, you'll definitely be able to get through this."

"Hurry up and thank your master and senior uncle!"

Qing Yi chuckled and pointed at Han Li.

Upon hearing this, Han Li chimed in, "Thank you, Master, and Senior Uncle, for bestowing this treasure upon me."

Wu Chou's face was somewhat distorted.

People's circumstances are indeed different.

Zhang Feng stood aside and sighed.

However, Zhang Feng did not believe that Qingyi had no treasures.

The Concealing Robe he casually gave out could even conceal the divine sense of a Nascent Soul cultivator.

They're not giving it to me; it's just that it's inconvenient to take it out.

"Feng'er, are you confident in your ability to use the Ice and Fire Path? Although I have some treasures on me, it's not convenient for me to give them to you."

"If you're not confident you can get through this safely, stick close to Han. That way, the two of you can look out for each other."

Qingyi transmitted his voice to Zhang Feng.

Zhang Feng smiled slightly, "Just as I thought."

The treasures of rogue cultivators are hard to come by, and it's even more inappropriate to take them out and use them in public.

"Ancestor, there is no need to worry. I have prepared ice-type magic treasures in advance to protect myself, so I can safely pass through the lava road."

Boom!

When the time came, the Lava Road opened, and the three Nascent Soul cultivators from Jiyin stood behind Han Li, watching him leave.

Zhang Feng bowed to the three of them before stepping onto the lava path.

"Oh, so I wonder why you trust Han Li so much, Brother Qing, that you won't give him a single magic weapon."

"So it turns out they sent your junior to come in with them."

Ji Yin said with a smile.

"Oh, Qingyi, is that really what you think? You've certainly planned this quite meticulously."

The bearded man also laughed from the side.

"Ah~ Brother Man, you may not know this, but Brother Qing's junior has an extremely cold and yin-like natal magic weapon that is extremely effective against fire."

"Little Sun Wuchou once suffered a loss at his hands!"

Ji Yin said through gritted teeth.

"Oh, is this really Brother Wu's grandson, Wu Chou? I've heard that Brother Wu is the one who uses possession magic?"

Qingyi turned the tables on him.

This made the bearded man burst into laughter.

Outside the lava road, Zhang Feng stepped out of the teleportation array.

A scorching wave of heat rushed towards us; the lava road was protected by a no-fly zone, making flight impossible.

Zhang Feng walked forward with a serious expression and caution.

Elder Jin Kui and Elder Jia of the Star Palace should be preparing to increase the difficulty of the Ice and Fire Path at this time.

Although he possessed an extremely cold natal magic weapon, he even accepted a treasure prepared in advance by the Crimson Fire Old Monster to help him pass through the Ice and Fire Path.

But we must be extremely careful.

Two suns, one large and one small, blazed down on the entire lava road.

The fire elemental energy was violent and dense, and there was flowing, high-temperature magma everywhere.

Fire-attribute spirits flew about freely.

Perhaps it was because of his natal magic weapon, which possessed an extremely cold attribute, that even the heat couldn't get close to Zhang Feng.

Zhang Feng walked along the lava road, wearing the fire-resistant robe he had obtained from the Crimson Fire Monster, and walked with almost no energy expenditure.

roar~

Several roars of fire-type demon spirits reached Zhang Feng's ears.

These spirits are extremely sensitive to unfamiliar spiritual energy that enters them.

A large number of demons flew toward Zhang Feng's location.

Zhang Feng released his divine sense, and his water-attribute spiritual power was extremely effective against these demonic spirits.

He conjured several water orbs in his hand and hurled them directly at the oncoming fire-attribute demon.

Boo!

Water and fire are incompatible; after a moment, the demon spirit transformed into pure fire-attribute spiritual energy and dispersed.

In Zhang Feng's perception, these demon spirits were without intelligence or soul; they were merely born from the fire attribute and transformed into fire-attribute spiritual energy after death.

This cycle continues endlessly, and as long as the fire-attribute spiritual energy continues to flow, they will continue to thrive.

However, Zhang Feng did have a solution: kill the demon spirit and condense the fire-attribute spiritual energy it transformed into a Fire Pearl.

Zhang Feng continued his journey, stopping and starting, killing demons along the way to condense the Fire Pearl.

Perhaps because Jin Kui wasn't deliberately targeting him, Zhang Feng didn't encounter any powerful demon spirits along the way.

Zhang Feng did not encounter the fire-attribute tornado formed by the gathering of a large number of fire-attribute demons.

Zhang Feng successfully exited the lava zone and arrived at a vast black desert.
