Cultivation Begins From The Desert

v3 Chapter 683: Walking through the center of the eart

For an adventure with an unknown degree of danger, the more prepared you are in advance, the greater the chance of surviving the adventure.

Zhou Yang has experienced many adventures in his life, but there are not many adventures like this one that can be prepared in advance.

And those few adventures were all because he was well prepared to survive the extremely dangerous situation.

So this time he also attached great importance to preparations.

He only has less than three years to prepare, which is obviously not enough time for him to practice some kind of magical power, so all he needs to prepare is all kinds of items that may be used.

Spiritual talismans and medicinal pills are naturally the first things that need to be prepared. It is difficult to buy sixth-order spirits and medicinal pills. Zhou Yang either made them himself or bought them from outside. There are a lot of fire defense charms.

When he prepared the amulet, he specially selected the jade amulet made of the kind of spirit jade.

For the same kind of talisman, the jade talisman made of spiritual jade with rich spiritual power is not only more powerful than the talisman made of talisman paper, but also saves the user's mana when used.

Zhou Yang now has no shortage of spirit stones, and he can make talismans by himself. Of course, he chooses the best one.

Then, considering that he still needs to break the prohibition of the formation, he prepared three more formations that may be useful. These formations are the spoils of war he has obtained in the past, but there is no need to spend extra spirit stones.

It's just that these pills, magic talismans, and formations are all conventional aids, and they can't really help him avoid those fatal dangers.

Therefore, he found Yuqing Daozong again, and used one foot [Ten Thousand Years Soul Cultivation Wood] to exchange a piece of Yuqing Daozong's secret amulet [Tai Xu Hualing Amulet] that he had used once from Master Yulong, and then spent another time. Millions of Spirit Stones bought a piece of [Yuqing Immortal Trap].

With these two life-saving amulets in his body, Zhou Yang's confidence in this trip has undoubtedly increased a lot.

After he was all ready, he said goodbye to Taoist companion Xiao Ying, and rushed to the Shenhuo Palace alone to make an appointment.

Originally, according to his promise to Xiao Ying a few years ago, he should bring a Taoist companion for this adventure.

But this time, the situation is very special. Zhou Yang has sworn in front of Zhao Yuanpu that he will not reveal any specific information. If he brings Xiao Ying, his Taoist companion, he will be considered to have broken his oath.

In order not to violate his oath, he could only say sorry to the Taoist companion again.

Fortunately, Xiao Ying is a sensible and sensible internal assistant. After knowing his difficulties, she sensible and did not blame him for this matter.

And now that Bi'er, the demon king's maid, is by her side, she is no longer as lonely and bored as before, but she doesn't have to follow Zhou Yang.

Without disturbing anyone, Zhou Yang quietly checked into the City Lord's Mansion in Hellfire City.

He waited for a few days in the City Lord's Mansion, and Zhao Yuanpu brought another fellow cultivator [Huolong Zhenren] to meet him.

It was not the first time that Zhao Yuanpu and Zhou Yang had met, but it was the first time he had met the [Huolong Master].

When he looked at the red-faced bald old man, Zhao Yuanpu had already introduced the two with a smile on his face.

"Come on, old man, come to introduce the two fellow Taoists."

"Fellow Daoist Zhou, this fellow Daoist is Sun Yucheng, one of the [Three Elders of the Southern Clouds]. Daoyou Sun has practiced for two thousand years, and he has the famous treasure [Fire Dragon Cover]. You must have heard of it too!"

The so-called "Nanyun Three Elders" refer to the three loose cultivators Yuanying cultivators who practiced on Nanyun Mountain, a sixth-order spiritual mountain. Although these three did not establish a sect or set up a family, they each received a lot of money. The disciples of the young people are a force of their own.

[Huolong real person] Sun Yucheng is the first of the three elders, and has the cultivation of the fifth layer of Yuanying.

Hearing Zhao Yuanpu's introduction at this time, Zhou Yang's expression turned slightly straight, and he bowed his hands to the bald old man: "Zhou Yang has seen Sun Zhenren, this trip is very dangerous, please take care of Sun Zhenren."

When the bald old man saw this, he didn't dare to care at all, and hurriedly replied politely, "Young Daoist Zhou is too polite, in front of you, I dare not say the word "care", but Daoyou Zhao told me about the battle outside Hellfire City that day. After what happened, the old man asked himself that when he and Daoist friend moved in on the same day, it was absolutely impossible to get a bargain under Zhao Daoyou!"

When Zhou Yang heard him talk about this, he immediately smiled wryly and waved his hands and sighed: "Hey, Zhenren Sun, please don't mention this again, if it wasn't for Zhao Zhenren's mercy on that day, Zhou would have already lost his life, how dare he be proud of this. "

"Hahaha, don't be humble for the two Taoists. This trip requires the cooperation of two Taoists and Zhao to help Zhao to bring back the remains and relics of the ancestors of the sect. Zhao here would like to thank the two Taoists first. already."

Zhao Yuanpu laughed and interjected with a smile to interrupt the chat between the two.

When Zhou Yang and [Huolong Master] heard what he said, they couldn't help but look at each other, then looked at him with a smile, and said in unison, "You will definitely live up to what Daoyou Zhao expects."

"Okay, with the words of the two Daoists, Zhao can be relieved. If the two have nothing else to say, let's go now!"

Zhao Yuanpu shouted hello, and even when he made the words of departure, it seemed that he couldn't wait.

"Zhou has no opinion." Zhou Yang said first.

[Huolong Daoist] also nodded and replied, "Sun Mou also listened to Daoyou Zhao's instructions."

"Shan, those two please come with Zhao."

Zhao Yuanpu smiled and took the lead to leave Hellfire City.

The three of them set off from Hellfire City, and soon plunged into the wild jungle, heading towards the depths of the wild jungle.

Zhao Yuanpu was obviously very familiar with the situation along the way. Zhou Yang and the others followed behind him, and they basically didn't encounter any places that needed to be shot.

Those dangerous places, Zhao Yuanpu will explain to the two in advance, and take the two to either bypass, or to sneak through carefully with a restrained breath.

It even includes several wild alien territories.

After following Zhao Yuanpu all the way into the wilderness for more than 700,000 miles, the three came to the outside of a huge surface magma lake in the wild jungle.

This magma lake is hundreds of miles long and more than 70 miles wide. The lake is full of dark red magma, with a pungent smell of sulfur, filling the area around the magma lake for thousands of miles, and the sky even condenses from time to time. Black sulfuric acid rain cloud, falling with extremely corrosive acid rain.

Therefore, it is difficult to see signs of life in the area hundreds of miles around the magma lake. The lush plants in the wild jungle have completely disappeared here, and the animals are all walking around here.

Occasionally, unidentified and powerful animals enter this place, and they are too late to leave. They are easily poisoned to death by the sudden acid rain, leaving only a little bit of bone remains on the ground to prove that they have come.

High-level monsters and wild beasts are not afraid of the acid rain, but there is nothing but magma on the magma lake, so they naturally don't want to waste time here.

Therefore, even if Zhou Yang and the three of them appeared above the magma lake without any cover at all, no creature would come to trouble them.

"It's here. This is one of the closest entrances to the cave. We need to go down from here and follow an underground magma river for hundreds of miles underground before finally reaching the underground magma sea where the cave is located."

Zhao Yuanpu gave a brief introduction to the situation, then opened his mouth and spit, a cloud of silver-purple flames turned into a flame gauze covering his body, and then slightly nodded to Zhou Yang and [Huolong Master]: "The old man is in front. Lead the way, the two fellow Daoists please follow the old man closely, don’t get lost below.”

"Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Zhao, I'll wait to understand what to do."

[Huolong Zhenren] nodded in response, raised his hand slightly, and a translucent red-red colored glass cover appeared in his hand.

He threw the glazed cover up, and the treasure turned into a transparent flame shield to cover himself in it.

This thing is his famous magic weapon [Fire Dragon Hood].

When it was Zhou Yang's turn, he followed Zhao Yuanpu's example and summoned a group of [Ganyang True Fire] to turn it into a flame armor and put it on his body to isolate the erosion of magma.

In fact, with the strength of his physical body, even if the physical body touches the magma in this magma lake, there will be no problem.

But not so much magma deep underground.

The magma deep underground is not only much higher in temperature than the magma in the magma lake on the surface, but also contains the power of Earth Fire Poisonous Evil. He builds up in his body, destroying his physical foundation.

Pfft!

Pfft!

Pfft!

As the three magma waves splashed, Zhou Yang and the three quickly disappeared into the magma lake.

The poisonous power of the Earth Fire in the magma also does a lot of damage to the cultivator's consciousness.

Therefore, when advancing in the underground magma, the three of them were very close, and the two behind them both observed the figure of Zhao Yuanpu, who was leading the way, and followed him closely.

The underground magma Hanoi will also breed some fire-type spirits, and when they encounter some spirits that can be seen on the road, the three of them will also collect them.

However, the spiritual objects that are really useful to the cultivators of the Nascent Soul stage are not so easy to come across.

After traveling for hundreds of miles in the underground magma Hanoi, Zhao Yuanpu, who was leading the way, suddenly stopped and stopped.

As soon as he stopped, Zhou Yang and [Huolong Zhenren] who were following him immediately slowed down and slowly came to his side, and then the [Huolong Zhenren] raised his hand and protected the [Fire Dragon Mask]. The strange treasure suddenly became larger, and Zhou Yang and Zhao Yuanpu were covered in it.

With this treasure isolated from the magma, the three of them can talk and communicate with confidence.

I saw Zhao Yuanpu's face was solemn, and he said first: "Two fellow Daoists, be careful, there are still twenty or thirty miles ahead, and we will reach the underground magma sea. Once I enter the underground magma sea, the beast will be very It is very likely that they will find me waiting and launch a sneak attack on me."

"It would be great if it came to sneak attack. I can just join forces to solve it. I'm afraid that it will find out that there are three of us, and it will hide and secretly do something bad when it realizes that I am no match. That will be difficult."

[Huolong Master] first glanced at Zhou Yang, and after seeing that he had no intention of speaking, he whispered his opinion.

Zhao Yuanpu and the strange beast have been involved more than once, and he has already figured out the strength and tactics of the strange beast.

Although he alone is not the opponent of the alien beast, but if he joins forces with Zhou Yang and the two, he is quite sure to defeat the opponent and drive away.

[Huolong Zhenren] also understands this, so he is so confident.

"What did Daoyou Zhou say?"

Zhao Yuanpu turned his gaze to Zhou Yang, and there was a hint of unexplainable expectation in his eyes.

In fact, even he himself doesn't know why he has expectations for Zhou Yang, probably because Zhou Yang's blow that day left him too deeply impressed!

"Friend Sun's words are not unreasonable, but if that beast dared to show up and attack me, Zhou would have a way to make it impossible to hide again."

Zhou Yang pondered for a while, and then revealed something to his two companions.

It can be clearly seen that when they heard that he had a way to track the position of the alien beast in the magma sea, Zhao Yuanpu and the two showed a hint of surprise.

After being surprised, Zhao Yuanpu immediately clapped his hands and shouted: "Wonderful, if Fellow Daoist Zhou can really track the location of the beast, the chances of me killing the beast this time will be greatly improved."

He originally just wanted to gather the strength of the three to defeat the guardian alien beast and drive it away. In fact, he didn't have much hope for killing the alien beast.

After all, in a place like the underground magma sea, the alien beast has a great home field advantage. If they really want to escape, it is really difficult for them to stop each other.

[Huolong Zhenren] even urged: "Then what are you waiting for? I'll wait and move on."

After he finished speaking, he waved his hand and reduced the [Fire Dragon Hood] to the point where he could only accommodate himself.

The three continued on.

After traveling for more than 20 miles, the underground magma river suddenly flowed deeper into the ground. In less than a quarter of an hour, Zhou Yang and the three of them fell more than ten thousand meters deep down the magma river!

When this fall finally stopped, they came to the underground magma sea that Zhao Yuanpu said.

If you use the knowledge of Zhou Yang's previous life to interpret, this so-called underground magma sea should be the core of the planet, and the earth in his previous life is called the center of the earth.

The temperature of the magma in this place is so high that it has already caught up with the infant fire of the monks of the Nascent Soul stage, and the monks of the Jindan stage may not be able to support even a quarter of an hour here.

This is an even more dangerous place than the "Nine Heavenly Territory".

Even if Zhou Yang has the [Dry Yang True Fire] body protection, after entering this place, the [Dry Yang True Fire] used to protect his body also increases the speed of his mana extraction a lot.

At the same time, the poisonous and poisonous aura of the earth fire here is also extremely strong. Even if Zhou Yang did not deliberately use his pupil technique, he could see the black-red poisonous and poisonous fire filled with the purple-red magma.

Because of the existence of these poisonous fire suffocating qi, even if the fire attribute aura here is richer than that of the sixth-order spiritual meridian, Zhou Yang and the three did not dare to absorb the fire attribute aura from the outside world to supplement the mana, they could only absorb and refine their own carry. of high-grade spirit stones to replenish mana.

Zhao Yuanpu did not know how to determine the direction in this boundless underground magma sea like the sea. After the three of them descended here, he waited for a while, waiting for Zhou Yang and the two to adapt to the environment here, leaving a special mark. After marking, Bento headed in one direction.

Thinking of his previous admonition, Zhou Yang had already called out the natal magic tool [Ganyang Golden Pagoda] in his left hand while following him, and he also held a purple-golden ruler in the other hand.

boom!

In the originally calm magma sea, a loud noise suddenly rose, and the powerful energy fluctuations spread at the explosion of the loud noise, directly forming a small-scale magma tsunami.

The sneak attack from the alien beast guarding the cave came as scheduled. During the short fight, Zhou Yang finally saw the true appearance of the alien beast that had shrunk Zhao Yuanpu several times.

It was an alien beast in the shape of a crocodile. Its body was as slender as a crocodile, with scarlet scales all over its body, but its head was like a shark in the sea, its mouth was full of sharp teeth, and there was a triangular horn on the top of its head. , and in addition to four sharp claws, there are also long triangular fins similar to fins on both sides of the body, and dorsal fins similar to sharks on the back.

Even though he had already learned about this strange beast from Zhao Yuanpu, Zhou Yang was a little surprised by its strange appearance after seeing this strange beast.

He traveled around the world and traveled to several immortal worlds. He had read various books that recorded monsters and wild beasts, but he had never seen relevant records for such exotic beasts.

In fact, it's more than him, even Zhao Yuanpu has never really found out the origin of this exotic beast, but temporarily named it [Poisonous Fire Crocodile Shark] based on its appearance and good magical powers.

This [Poisonous Fire Crocodile Shark] lives in the underground magma sea and uses magma as its food. It not only has several powerful fire-type magical powers, but can also easily manipulate the power of magma to attack the enemy and hide itself.

In the short confrontation just now, it used the power of magma to stealthily approached Zhou Yang and the three of them several hundred meters away, and then suddenly launched a sneak attack on the three.

Fortunately, since the three of Zhou Yang entered this magma sea, they have all been in high spirits, and the three of them worked together to defend, and they did not let this beast get any advantage.

During the brief confrontation, Zhou Yang's [Purple Gold Universe Ruler] successfully created a scar on the beast's back, allowing him to obtain a finely fragmented scale with its breath.

At this moment, after the [Poisonous Fire Crocodile Shark] missed a hit and hid in the magma sea and used the power of magma to become invisible, Zhou Yang asked Zhao Yuanpu and the two to help him protect the magic, and then sacrificed his second natal magic weapon. Qianyang Golden Lamp], threw the fine scales into the lamp, and cast a spell to light the golden lamp.

"I found it, it's over there!"

As the golden lights were slowly lit, Zhou Yang glanced over the lights, then pointed in one direction and started drinking.

Both Zhao Yuanpu and [Huolong Master] noticed that the direction Zhou Yang was pointing was the direction that the light was focused on.

"Okay, since Fellow Daoist Zhou can determine its location, let's set up a set for it, and when it can't bear to sneak attack again, give it a slap in the face!"

Zhao Yuanpu's eyes flashed, and he immediately applauded and said his plan.

So after the three discussed through voice transmission, Zhao Yuanpu took the lead, Zhou Yang was in the middle, and the rear of the [Huolong Master] kept this formation and continued to rush towards the location of the cave.

Not long after that, the [Poisonous Fire Crocodile Shark] couldn't help but launch a second sneak attack on the three.

It's just that after receiving Zhou Yang's advance warning this time, the three of them launched a counter-attack together before the [Poison Fire Crocodile Shark] approached and had time to start.

When it was, the three of them used their powerful instruments to hit the [Poisonous Fire Crocodile Shark] at the same time, leaving several hideous wounds on the beast in an instant.

But just as the three of them were about to make persistent efforts to expand their victory, the injured [Poisonous Fire Crocodile Shark] decided to flee.

In this magma sea, without the three of them using their real cards, it is impossible to keep the [Poisonous Fire Crocodile Shark] who wanted to escape.

Obviously, none of the three wanted to leave their cards to such a strange beast of unknown origin.

"Forget it, business matters, as long as this beast doesn't disturb me when I do business, let it go first!"

Zhao Yuanpu shook his head with regret, but made a decision quickly.

Before the two of them came, Zhou Yang had accepted his favor, and they had agreed that before entering the cave mansion, everything would be based on his opinion. At this time, listening to him say it, although it was a pity that the strange beast ran away, it was a pity. No one objected to his decision.

So Zhou Yang was in charge of monitoring the movement of the [Poisonous Fire Crocodile Shark], and continued to drive towards the cave.

It is estimated that the ambush just now hurt him, and then until Zhou Yang and the three appeared outside the cave, they were not attacked by the [Poisonous Fire Crocodile Shark] again.

However, through the reaction of [Ganyang Golden Lamp], Zhou Yang knew that this strange beast had been watching and following the three of them not far away, and it was obvious that he had not completely given up.

"Sure enough, it's the [Red Lotus Fire]! I didn't expect this kind of heaven and earth spirit fire to exist in such a large area, it's really surprising!"

In the magma sea composed entirely of purple-red magma, there suddenly appeared an area covered with pink flames. This sense of difference really made people feel bright.

Although Zhou Yang didn't exclaim in astonishment like [Huolong Zhenren]~lightnovelpub.net~, he looked at the pink sea of ​​fire with amazement, his eyes flashing with deep surprise.

[Red Lotus Earth Fire] It is also the best among the heaven and earth spirit fires. If a Jindan cultivator can refine a mass of such heaven and earth spirit fires, it is equivalent to cultivating a powerful fire element. supernatural powers.

However, the spiritual fire of this world can only be nurtured in the heart of the earth, and it is extremely rare for the monks in the world of immortals to be able to refine this fire.

But now the [Red Lotus Fire] in front of Zhou Yang's three people has formed a sea of ​​fire!

"The old man has always had doubts, suspecting that these [Red Lotus Fires] are not naturally generated by heaven and earth, but condensed by the power of the formation or by absorbing the fire attribute aura of this place by a certain treasure. Blocking, I have been unable to verify my conjecture, today with the help of two Taoist friends, I can finally get a taste of what I want."

"Let this old man try to see if his suspicions are true!"

Zhao Yuanpu stared at the pink sea of ​​fire with glittering eyes. While talking about his guess, he reached out and grabbed the pink sea of ​​fire. A huge palm condensed by his mana instantly copied into the pink sea. In the sea of ​​​​fire, trying to fish out a flame from it.
