Chapter 1,669 Fire Lotus(1/2)
Liang Yan felt that there was something in her words, but the relationship between the two was not deep. The other party was obviously unwilling to say more, and he had no choice.
The topic ends here.
The wooden boat continued to move upward along the long river of flames.
After passing the test of the fire crow, there seemed to be no other agencies or restrictions around him, and the journey was smooth and headed towards the source of the long river of flames.
After about a cup of tea, the power of the flames in front gradually increased, and a huge lake of flames could be vaguely seen.
The long rolling river starts from here.
"It seems we have reached the source."
Liang Yan stood up from the wooden boat and looked into the distance.
What I saw was a huge lake. The lava was rolling in the lake, and the red flames were burning. It was like wild beasts from the ancient times, quietly dormant in the lake, ready to choose people and devour them at any time.
Above the lake, about a thousand feet in the sky, there is a gap in the void.
This crack is very abrupt, like a round hole appearing on the smooth mirror surface, which looks extremely weird.
There is a long staircase extending from the entrance of the cave, hanging down from high altitude to a place about a hundred feet away from the lake.
"It seems that we are going to go up that staircase and enter this gap in the void." Liang Yan narrowed his eyes slightly.
After hearing this, the woman in black stood up on the bow of the boat and looked into the distance, thoughtfully.
"This trial road is the only way to become the master of the Wuzhuang Mountain Fire Tribe. No outsider knows what is in it. But according to my guess, the test just now is just an appetizer, and the subsequent tests will be more difficult...
....."
"There is no turning back now."
Liang Yan glanced behind him and saw that the long river had long been shrouded in thick fog.
"indeed."
The woman in black's voice was calm, but extremely firm: "No matter what difficulties lie ahead, I will move forward unwaveringly."
.......
While he was talking, the wooden boat had already approached the lake.
This lake has a radius of a hundred miles, and powerful fire power spreads out from the lake, like a bloody mouth, ready to choose and devour anyone at any time.
"The power of the flames here is much more terrifying than before..." Liang Yan murmured.
After hearing this, the woman in black looked up and stared at the golden stairs in mid-air, and said slowly: "It doesn't matter. As long as you climb that ladder and leave the void rift, you will be considered to have passed the test here."
The golden stairs hung down from the void until they were about a hundred feet away from the lake.
The height of one hundred feet can be reached with just a thought for monks like Liang Yan and the woman in black. It is not a difficult task.
However, the menacing lake ahead indicates that things will not be so simple.
"Be careful, we're almost there."
Seeing the boat getting closer and closer to the lake, Liang Yan's expression became serious.
He used the "Empty Phase of All Dharmas" to diffuse the body-protecting golden light, covering the entire boat.
At the same time, Li Xiaosong's forehead also lit up with golden lines, and the power of flames surged out of her body, looking ready to take action at any time.
The two men and the beast stood ready, and after a while, the boat finally sailed slowly into the lake of flames under the control of the woman in black.
Everything was calm and there were no abnormalities.
However, Liang Yan and the woman in black did not dare to neglect, they were very alert and observed their surroundings carefully, guarding against any slightest sign of trouble.
Just when the boat was about to reach the middle of the lake, a dull loud noise suddenly came from below the lake water.
Boom!
Amidst the loud noise, the lake surface began to churning violently, and powerful flames surged out, rushing toward the two of them like a tide.
"Control the boat, I will resist the power of these flames!"
Liang Yan gave a low shout and pinched the magic techniques with both hands. The golden light of the body protection was as solid as substance. It was tenacious and unbreakable under the destruction of the flames, and firmly guarded the boat at the feet of the two of them.
Seeing this, the woman in black hurriedly activated the spiritual power in her body to speed up the boat.
The distance between the two people and the stairs is getting closer and closer.
As the boat rowed across the center of the lake, the lake suddenly began to rotate, and a large whirlpool appeared below.
In the center of the vortex, a huge flaming lotus slowly appeared!
With the appearance of this lotus, the woman in black's wooden boat instantly malfunctioned and actually turned its bow and sailed in the direction of the flaming lotus!
"not good!"
The face of the woman in black changed greatly, and she pinched the magic formula in her hand again and again, but no matter how she activated the "Sky Fire Stone", she could no longer control the small wooden boat under her feet, and could only watch it deviate from its course.
"It's useless, abandon ship quickly!"
Liang Yan shouted loudly, jumped out of the wooden boat first, activated the escape light, and flew in the direction of the stairs.
However, while he was in mid-air, he felt a strange force coming from below. This force not only interfered with his escape, making it impossible for him to use his escape technique at full strength, but it also acted like a big invisible hand, dragging him down.
With his feet, he dragged him in the direction of the flame lotus.
"I knew it wasn't that simple..."
Liang Yan cursed secretly in his heart and used all his strength to activate the escape light, but found that he could not move forward at all, but was slowly retreating bit by bit!
He understood in his heart that this was because the escape technique was interfered with, causing the escape light to be unable to compete with the suction force, which ultimately led to this situation.
If things continue like this, it will be a matter of time before they are sucked into the vicinity of the Flame Lotus!
At this moment, the melodious sound of the flute sounded again.
Liang Yan turned around and saw that the woman in black had also jumped out of the wooden boat and was now suspended in the air. She took out the emerald green flute from the storage ring, put it to her mouth and started playing it gently.
The sound of the flute this time was very cheerful, like a light evening breeze, floating freely in the forest.
As the sound of the flute echoed over the lake, ripples appeared in the void, and pieces of emerald green leaves appeared out of thin air. These leaves fell one after another from high in the sky, forming a ladder of leaves!
Originally, there was still a hundred feet distance between the golden staircase and the lake, but now it is completed by this leaf staircase!
The sound of the flute gradually stopped, and the woman in black's eyes did not waver at all.
"Walk!"
With a low shout, the woman landed on the green leafy steps first, then spread her legs and began to climb up.
When Liang Yan saw this, he only hesitated for a moment and followed with Li Xiaosong.
The moment his feet landed on the green leaves, Liang Yan felt that the pressure was greatly relieved!
"I didn't expect the magic of Yuzhu Mountain to be so mysterious..."
Liang Yan was secretly frightened.
You must know that the flame lotus below is not ordinary. The powerful force can interfere with the two people's escape from light. It also has a strange suction force that even with Liang Yan's cultivation level, he cannot get rid of it.
And these small leaves in front of you can actually resist the suction of the flame lotus, which shows the mystery of Yuzhu Mountain's magic!
"faster!"
The urging voice of the woman in black came from the front.
Liang Yan did not hesitate after hearing this, and climbed up with Li Xiaosong, and soon caught up with the woman in black.
On this green leafy staircase, neither of them could use light escape, and relied solely on their physical strength to resist the suction of the flame lotus. Liang Yan had been practicing his body all year round, so his speed was much faster than the woman in black.
Although he came later, it only took him a few breaths to overtake the woman in black.
Seeing this, the woman in black was not to be outdone. She took out two talismans from the storage ring and attached them to her body. Her speed suddenly more than doubled.
Under the interference of the flame lotus, the two climbed with all their strength. It took about ten breaths to reach the middle of the green leaf staircase.
At this moment, nine of the hundreds of lotus leaves of the Flame Lotus suddenly burst out with incandescent light!
Before Liang Yan and the woman in black could react, the nine lotus leaves had already fallen off the flame lotus.
The lotus leaves floated high into the sky, changed rapidly under the white light, and finally turned into nine flame warriors!
The stature of these nine people is similar to that of ordinary monks, but their whole bodies are covered in incandescent flames, and their facial features cannot be seen clearly, but the aura on their bodies is extremely powerful.
To be continued...
