Chapter 261 Red Flame
Shi Chun and Wu Jinliang were impressed that someone could drill into such boiling molten lava. They knew that people who practiced fire-related skills could control high temperatures to a certain extent, but this was the first time they had seen such a thing.
A group of people gathered around the lava spring and watched, only to see gurgling black smoke coming out from time to time. Shi Chun activated the special ability of his right eye and stared at the four people who were sinking and gradually approaching an unknown animal. The animal, perhaps noticing that it had sensed something approaching, suddenly stopped moving.
Tong Mingshan, An Wuzhi and Zhu Xiangxin occasionally glanced at Shi Chun, not knowing whether the boss was serious or just fooling people.
If you say it's just fooling people, then the acting is too realistic. It has come to this point, how can you fool people without some real talent?
If they were serious, the three of them would be confused. After finding the sacred fire, why didn't they let their own people absorb it, but instead allowed outsiders to intervene?
Not to mention them, even Chu Jingtang and others thought so.
But the problem is that the boss killed the other team leader again.
They really couldn't understand it, so they didn't dare to criticize it.
I found the feeling I had during the Meteor Shower Conference, but there is still a difference. I was really a fool back then, but now I am a sober fool.
Suddenly, Shi Chun quietly took out the Wind Scale in his hand. He saw the dormant monster below move, and seemed to rush towards the four people who had sneaked in.
Soon, everyone standing on the tortoise-shell-like ground felt the vibration under their feet, and the magma in the magma spring was turbulent.
"What's going on?" Shi Chun asked.
Xu Anchang said in a deep voice: "There may be something underneath."
Hearing this, Shi Chun was not polite and said directly to his people: "We are from Mingshan Sect. We are not good at fire-based skills, so please stay away."
He made a gesture and called on everyone to jump to the nearby island. The monster was really attacking people below, and no one knew what it was. It was better to hide first and let those people test its strength first.
Xu Anchang and others just glanced at them and did not avoid them.
The magma in the spring was becoming more and more turbulent, with faint rumbling sounds being heard. The faces of the people from the Siding Sect were solemn.
After a while, the lava exploded and a figure rushed out. It was You Mu. Three more people followed closely behind him. They were the three who went down together.
When everyone looked over, they found that the clothes of the four people had been burned to tatters by the fire, and two of them were obviously burned by the fire.
The person who practiced fire-based martial arts was actually burned. Xu Anchang and others who were following him were a little shocked.
You Mu, who was still in the air, shouted, "Everyone, be careful of the divine fire that might hurt people. Quickly pull the 'Yu Jinxiang'."
Upon hearing this, the people from the Siding Sect suddenly perked up and immediately understood why their fellow disciples who went down were burned.
We are all playing with fire. Since there really is a divine fire, why worry about getting hurt? Just go for it.
Tong Mingshan immediately looked at Shi Chun beside him and asked in surprise: "Master, is there really a divine fire?"
A group of people looked at him, all with the same question: Did the boss really find the sacred fire before?
Shi Chun was a little dumbfounded. The monster was the divine fire? Who should he ask?
His original intention was to give an explanation to Xu Anchang and the others, but he found the sacred fire?
At this moment, magma gushed out of the spring on the turtle's back, and a monster that was still dazzling blood red in broad daylight rushed out. It was nearly two meters long and shaped like a giant crocodile. Its blood red color was a bit dazzling, and it rendered everything around it a bright red. Everyone felt as if they were painted with a layer of red paint, and the fire crocodile's eyes were even redder and purple.
As soon as the fire crocodile appeared, it immediately swung its tail and swept across the people on the Turtleback Hillside, and its roaring sound shook people's eardrums.
Everyone immediately flew up, and the fire crocodile opened its mouth and a strong red flame swept across the figures in the air. The momentum was extremely shocking.
Everyone used fire-based skills to resist, but this flame was obviously not comparable to ordinary fire. The method of controlling fire was not so easy to control. Those who had weaker and slower control skills had their defenses broken immediately. The protective qi was directly burned by the flames, their clothes were on fire, they let out a painful howl, and quickly dodged to the side. Although the fire on their bodies was put out, half of their skin and flesh had been burned.
Looking at the flames that were as red as bright red paint, Tong Mingshan, An Wuzhi and Zhu Xiangxin blurted out "Red Flame!" almost at the same time.
The three of them looked eager to make a move.
Shi Chun and the others understood as soon as they heard it. It seemed to be the divine fire. However, they had no intention of asking more questions at the moment and focused closely on the battle situation on the scene.
Bang! Xu Anchang rushed towards the fire crocodile with his sword, intending to kill it, but he collided with the tail and fell into the molten lava, retreating repeatedly. Every footprint was a spark.
Shi Chun and others were slightly shocked when they saw this. Even with Xu Anchang's martial arts skills at the advanced level, he was unable to withstand the attack power of the fire crocodile. One can imagine the strength of the fire crocodile.
However, Xu Anchang kicked out a piece of charred stone and smashed it on the fire crocodile's head. He shook the sword in his hand and roared, deliberately provoking, obviously buying time for his accomplices to prepare, and shouted loudly, "Don't let it get away. Once it escapes below, it will be difficult for us to catch it!"
After that, he turned around and ran away.
The fire crocodile was on the surface of the lava lake, shaking its head and tail, moving at great speed, charging and chasing, with a trail of flames all the way.
On the other side, You Mu had taken out a large metal net from his Qiankun bag, threw a few rope ends to his fellow disciples who had rushed over, and then the six of them pulled open the large net and rushed towards the fire crocodile.
"This way!" You Mu suddenly shouted.
Xu Anchang, who was being chased, looked back, turned around and flew into the air, passing over the head of the fire crocodile. The fire crocodile looked up and immediately turned around and chased after him.
"Sink!" You Mu raised his hand and called out.
The six people pulling the net immediately pulled the net and sank into the lava.
As soon as Xu Anchang passed by, the fire crocodile rushed towards him with flames all the way. At this moment, the six people who were pulling the net rushed out of the lava together, pulled the net rope to catch the fire crocodile, and the six people flew into the air to the opposite side.
A large metal net suddenly tightened, trapping the fire crocodile inside.
The fire crocodile struggled desperately. Although the six people were shaken around, they held on tightly and refused to let go. At You Mu's command, they quickly pulled the net rope and ran towards the island.
There is no way. The molten lava is too soft and cannot bear any force.
The process was difficult. The fire crocodile found it difficult to escape, so it tried to drill into the lava, dragging the six people up and down. The remaining disciples of the Four Ding Sect immediately rushed to help hold the rope, even those who were burned by the fire, and finally stabilized them and did not let them fall into the lava.
The fire crocodile roared unwillingly, and red flames continued to spew out of its mouth, intending to burn the metal mesh. The mesh did indeed begin to show signs of melting.
Despite this, the group still tried their best to drag the fire crocodile onto the island.
Shi Chun said with a sigh, "What kind of net is that? It can actually withstand the burning of the divine fire."
Tong Mingshan said: "It is what they call 'Yu Jinxiang'. It is occasionally used when refining tools. It is used to carry materials for refining. It cannot withstand the burning of the divine fire. It can only withstand it temporarily."
As if to confirm his words, as soon as the fire crocodile was dragged onto the island, its head broke through the mesh and came out, swaying from side to side, roaring and breathing fire.
But now that it had reached the shore, the restraint of a group of monks had become much stronger, and they could no longer allow it to run rampant, let alone escape easily.
Xu Anchang took out a pointed shovel, the kind with a handle that could be screwed on to extend it. After it was quickly extended enough, he thrust it in like a spear, piercing the fire crocodile's neck. Someone went over to catch the other end, holding one end on each side, and thus firmly held the fire crocodile's head, forcing it to howl but unable to shake its head or move around.
After calling someone to take over his side, Xu Anchang drew his sword and jumped onto the fire crocodile, stabbing it hard with one sword after another.
After stabbing the fire crocodile with hundreds of swords, it finally lost its ability to resist and could only gasp for breath.
The net rope was getting tighter and tighter, and the fire crocodile's body was shrinking gradually.
Xu Anchang sheathed his sword and looked at the surrendered monster in front of him with a satisfied smile.
The Mingshan Sect's group also realized it and surrendered. They looked at each other in surprise. If they were left to deal with this thing alone, they probably wouldn't be able to take it down even if they encountered it.
At the same time, they also secretly admired the tacit cooperation of these people. They witnessed the whole arrest process with their own eyes. It was very efficient, and they were worthy of being from the same sect.
Xu Anchang turned around and looked at Shi Chun. He flew over and landed in front of Shi Chun. He gave Shi Chun a thumbs up and laughed, "Brother Chun is indeed extraordinary. If it weren't for Brother Chun's insight, I would have missed him!"
Shi Chun waved his hands, looking as if he was unworthy of the honor, and asked, "Is the divine fire a living thing?"
Speaking of this, Xu Anchang was also quite emotional, "Not entirely, most of the divine fires are spiritual, but those that have turned into spiritual objects should be extremely rare. Needless to say, the fire of this fire crocodile must have been accumulated here for a long time before it can be spiritual and take shape. It's really a good thing!"
Shi Chun raised his chin towards the fire crocodile, "How do you absorb this?"
Xu Anchang: "It will return to its original form. Once it shows its original form, it will be easier to absorb. This fire should be the 'Red Flame' among the thirty-six kinds of divine fire."
Shi Chun said "oh" and turned to Tong Mingshan and said, "Brother Tong, do you like this divine fire, Chiyan?"
"Uh..." Tong Mingshan was stunned. Seeing Xu Anchang also staring at him, he couldn't help but smile bitterly, "Boss, you are joking. This is the divine fire, a treasure that weapon refiners dream of. How could I not like it? What qualifications do I have to not like it? To be honest, I am very envious."
Although he was envious, he knew in his heart that there was no way the Siding Sect would give up what they had obtained. The Siding Sect's strength was there, and it was impossible to snatch it away.
Shi Chun nodded, "Speaking of the boss, Brother Tong really treats me as the boss. When I want to do something, Brother Tong is the one who rushes to the front. Brother Tong has never let me down, so how can I let Brother Tong be jealous in vain. Since Brother Tong likes it, then this divine fire red flame will be given to you."
He turned around and asked Xu Anchang, "What do you think, Brother Xu?"
Everyone thought the boss was talking in his sleep, but Xu Anchang nodded and said, "Okay!"
All the troublesome fellow disciples from the Siding Sect have been killed by them, and he can now agree on behalf of the Siding Sect.
The Mingshan Sect's group was almost collectively dumbfounded, thinking they had heard it wrong.
Wu Jinliang was laughing beside them.
