Whether it's Wei Xiaotian, Li Xiaofei, Zhu Zhixun and others, everyone's plans have reached the most critical moment.
After leaving the eldest princess, Wei Xiaotian, as a border vassal king, naturally cannot go to deeper areas.
His status is not enough.
So on the surface, we must return, and we can only move within level six and level seven safety areas at most. ??
And there is a time limit.
As for Zhu Zhixun and others, as "people's favorites", they naturally have to follow their master back and have no personal freedom.
Without the protection of their master, as a human race, if they dare to wander into the Holy Ruins, they will definitely face death.
Li Xiaofei's goal is to evolve the temple.
He must go to the core area of the Holy Ruins.
Therefore, after separation from the eldest princess, how to proceed requires careful planning.
Fortunately, the eldest princess and her party will stay in Fortress No. 8 for a few days to make serious arrangements.
So there is still time.
During this period of reorganization, the powerful men of the major royal families were also allowed to go out freely for hunting activities.
The defenders of Fortress No. 8 are the ‘Windrunner’ clan of the Shuangzhu Prince family.
The Shuangzhu Prince is a high-ranking class in the prince level.
The origins of the Windrunner clan are also very important. They were one of the original races created by Zhizu after he first emerged from the Holy Ruins. They accompanied Zhizu in sweeping the universe and made great achievements.
The level of evolution of this clan is also extremely high.
It is said that more than 80% of the Windrunners have reached the level of half-step perfect humanization. Their level of civilization far exceeds that of the ordinary Reaper race, and they are nobles among nobles.
But even such a top nobleman still showed great enthusiasm when facing the eldest princess of the Huiyao clan.
The garrison commander’s name is ‘Yao’, and he is a peak eighth-level reaper.
He has reached the level of perfection.
The only difference between his body and his eyes is that they have vertical pupils and double pupils. The rest of his body is exactly the same.
"With the arrival of the eldest princess, Fortress No. 8 is in full bloom."
Yao's choice of words and sentences is also quite humanistic and realistic.
In fact, his human form is that of a tall, white-faced scholar.
"Commander Yao, you're welcome."
The eldest princess also has great respect for dignitaries of this level.
The two smiled and talked.
Soon, everyone was settled in the outer bastion of the 8 Hao Fortress.
Just like when they were in the safe fortress of the Fengxu Clan, except for the eldest princess and a few others, the treatment of other royal families was very ordinary.
Li Xiaofei and others were only assigned a simple stone room per person.
Other required food, equipment supplies, etc. need to be paid for additionally.
The Windrunners also seemed quite indifferent towards everyone.
But everyone's attitude was completely different from when they were left out in the Fengxu clan.
The Fengxu Clan is just an ordinary prince-level royal family, and their power is only a little higher than everyone else. Naturally, everyone dares to feel resentment.
But the Windrunner clan is the top two-bead prince.
No matter how indifferent they are, the powerful men of the major royal families still think this is a matter of course.
Li Xiaofei was in his room and soon saw Zhu Zhixun sneaking in quietly.
A conversation.
Zhu Zhixun lamented repeatedly that if they had not obtained the treasures passed down by the Sword Immortal Lin Beichen during their trip to the Immortal Burial Ice Cliff, they would have died in the secret realm long ago.
"Senior, we have to rely on ourselves next."
Zhu Zhixun looked solemn and said, "We have already agreed that we will take advantage of the opportunity to go hunting, fake death and escape, and then act alone to go to other suspicious formations to find the whereabouts of Senior Sword Immortal Lin Beichen. I wonder what your plans are?"
This means breaking away from the 'master'.
Once you leave, it means there is no way back.
If they could not find the Sword Immortal Lin Beichen, it would be almost impossible for them to escape from the Holy Ruins.
But it's also the only way.
Li Xiaofei said, "This is the best."
That's what he planned too.
Next, Wei Xiaotian has his own goals and will definitely act alone.
Brother Ji should be with him.
Li Xiao insisted on going to the Evolution Temple to look for Sikong Xue and her daughter.
Of course, the prerequisite is to rescue Lin Beichen.
Otherwise, with his current strength, even with an imperial weapon like the Blood-Drinking Sword, he would be unable to fight against the ultra-high level difficulty of the Holy Ruins environment.
After some discussion, the plan was finalized.
Zhu Zhixun left.
Another moment passed.
The eldest princess came to visit in person.
Li Xiaofei was also a little numb.
What do you mean when you say that you, a young lady, come knocking on the door of a muscular man like me when you have nothing to do?
Be a little more reserved.
"We are going out hunting tomorrow, please come with us."
The eldest princess did not hide herself and extended an invitation to Li Xiaofei again.
The last time, Li Xiaofei went hunting with the eldest princess and others, and obtained a lot of precious materials. They also easily solved Zhou Shisan, a jealous pretender. It can be said that the harvest was huge.
But this time, Li Xiaofei shook his head and refused.
"Your Highness's kindness, I can't thank you enough."
He said with a serious and firm tone, "But I can't be with Your Highness all the time.
Acting under the protection of others, the calm galaxy cannot cultivate strong navigators. I must temper myself in real dangers in order to gain the favor of the God of Evolution."
The eldest princess was slightly startled.
There was a trace of reluctance on his face.
But she also knew that what Li Xiaofei said made sense.
As a member of the reaper royal family, the pursuit of evolution is an eternal goal.
On the road of evolution, it is just a matter of course to eliminate all enemies that oppose the reapers and integrate their evolution into the evolution of the race itself.
"Since Li Lang has made up his mind, I won't force him anymore."
A look of disappointment appeared on the face of the eldest princess, but she no longer forced herself.
After a pause, the eldest princess said, "But the danger in this fire domain is extremely different from the areas we passed before, so Li Lang must be careful. I have a few treasures on me. I will send someone over soon. Li Lang
Don't refuse when you go, it's also excellent for self-defense and life-saving."
"Well, for the sake of your sincere plea, I will reluctantly accept it."
Li Xiaofei said calmly, "I won't do this next time."
The eldest princess then smiled happily.
Not long after she left, the elder 'Taki' came to the room with some treasures, knocked on the door politely, introduced him, and left the treasures.
"They are all good things."
Li Xiaofei looked at the fire-preventing beads, fire-extinguishing shields, fire-living armors, fire-escape fangs and other items in front of him, and couldn't help but sigh.
These are all guarantees for survival in the fire realm.
In addition, there are some blood foods that replenish energy in the body.
The eldest princess really cared about him.
It's almost as if I'd like to commit myself to it.
But Li Xiaofei still felt a little wary when he looked at the treasures in this place.
The eldest princess's love for him came out of nowhere, which always made Li Xiaofei feel a little unreal. He always felt that this girl was planning something.
Are there any mysteries hidden within these treasures?
The matter was so important that Li Xiaofei had to be cautious.
After thinking about it, Li Xiaofei finally collected all the treasures into the Secret Palace of Time.
Even if the eldest princess traps these treasures and equipment, once she enters the Secret Palace of Time, she will be like a dog-eat-dog—there will be no return.
No need to worry anymore.
Li Xiaofei walked out of the room, pretended to go to the store in the fortress, purchased a batch of equipment, and repaired and prepared the previous cold-weather cloaks and other items.
After everything was in order, Li Xiaofei, Wei Xiaotian and others left the safety fortress and went hunting deep in the Fire Domain.
After hearing the news, the eldest princess went to the gate of the fortress to see him off.
She stood at the door and waved reluctantly.
This scene fell into the eyes of Windrunner Commander Yao.
"Your Highness, it's time for us to set off."
Elder Qi reminded from the side.
He was afraid that the eldest princess would lose her mind and catch up with Li Xiaofei again.
The elder ‘Taki’ on one side could only be speechless.
This old friend of mine is still too dull, doesn't know how to adapt, and can't understand His Highness's calculations and ideas.
…
…
Southeast of Fort No. 8.
Six hundred miles.
A mountain of flames.
Visible flames flickered in the air.
The air here seems to be burning, containing a terrifying temperature.
"Okay, let's part ways here."
Li Xiaofei stopped and said.
"Fuck, ruthless."
Wei Xiaotian immediately said, "I'm so good to you, but I didn't expect you to be so eager to break up with me? Are you worthy of it..."
"Stop it."
Li Xiaofei interrupted directly and said, "The relationship between us is just that of collaborating and taking advantage of each other. Don't talk about it as if we are a destined couple. You think I haven't noticed that you have wanted to act alone for a long time."
Wei Xiaotian chuckled, put away his exaggerated expression of sorrow, and said, "You are right. It is indeed time for us to separate when we reach this point. I wish you good luck and don't die in the holy ruins."
Li Xiaofei said, "This is what I want to say to you too."
Wei Xiaotian looked at Brother Ji and said, "Take care, finally live your life again, don't die too quickly."
After saying that, he moved.
call out.
Turn into a stream of light.
It disappeared directly into the distance.
There was a look of shock in Brother Ji's eyes.
He looked at Li Xiaofei and said, "Has this bitch figured out my identity?"
Li Xiaofei was also shocked just now.
It turned out that Wei Xiaotian had already figured out that Liu Shaji was reborn.
When I said goodbye, was it just out of concern and admonition that I said these words?
The two looked at each other for a few times and said nothing.
Li Xiaofei felt that he seemed to have underestimated Wei Xiaotian.
This guy who belongs to the Garden of Eden is far more terrifying than his highest estimate.
"Do you want me to catch up and kill him?"
Liu Shaji was eager to try.
Li Xiaofei thought for a while, shook his head and said, "We still have big things to do.
And... I think this person may be of great use in dealing with the Reapers if he is alive."
Wei Xiaotian's painstaking efforts to infiltrate the Reaper camp definitely had some terrifying purpose.
Maybe he can disrupt the Reaper camp.
This is a great good thing for the human race.
Liu Shaji suppressed his impulse.
The two of them also turned and left.
After a while.
At the other end of the Flame Mountain, the two saw Zhu Zhixun, Xiong Gang and others who had been waiting for a long time.
"senior……"
Zhu Zhixun was overjoyed, but when he saw Brother Ji, his expression changed slightly and he asked, "Who is this?"
Of course he knows Brother Chicken.
I know that this person is one of the strong men under King Delta.
Along the way, Chicken Brother was very active and one of the most eye-catching existences.
Li Xiaofei said, "Don't be nervous, this person is one of us too."
He gave a brief introduction to both parties.
Zhu Zhixun and others were extremely surprised.
The right-hand man under King Delta of Death Eye is actually a human race?
"I heard that you are going to rescue Lin Beichen?"
Brother Ji said happily, "It's interesting. I didn't expect that stinky and lecherous guy to be locked up in the Holy Ruins, and a few juniors have to rescue him. Hahaha, I will definitely treat him well when I see him."
Make fun of him."
Zhu Zhixun and others captured a lot of information from these words.
His expression was even more astonishing.
Could it be that this person is the real boss?
Dare to tease the sword fairy Lin Beichen.
Li Xiaofei said, "Brother Ji's identity is a long story. You will naturally know it in the future. There is no need to doubt him. You just need to remember that he is a more trustworthy companion than me."
So, Zhu Zhixun and others saluted Liu Shaji.
"Haha, you're welcome, you're welcome."
Brother Chicken was very satisfied with what Li Xiaofei had just said, so he also acted like a master and said, "If you have any troubles in the future, you can ask me. Don't worry, there is nothing in this world that my resourceful Brother Chicken can't handle."
.”
After a few people gathered together, they found the right direction and moved forward.
The second suspicious formation mentioned by Zhu Zhixun and others is within the Fire Domain, an extremely dangerous place, within the belly of a volcano called Endless Flame.
The temperature in the fire domain is already too exaggerated.
The high temperature of up to 150,000 degrees that hits us at any time is enough to incinerate most living things. If placed in the real universe, even rocks would be smelted into liquid.
But everything in the holy ruins cannot be measured by common sense.
The soil and rocks on the ground are still as normal, with no tendency to liquefy.
In the active volcano known as the "Endless Flame", the temperature is even higher. It is said that it can reach a terrifying 15,000,000 degrees, which can burn everything, and the danger level is as high as level nine.
This is the only place where the Immortal Emperor can be trapped.
Soon, everyone arrived at the entrance of the ‘Endless Flame’ volcano.
At this time, the blazing high temperature made the air seem to twist.
The terrifying high temperature erupted from the crater made even Li Xiaofei feel chilled.
Zhu Zhixun and others were even more unbearable.
What they were wearing was already the best anti-high temperature equipment that could be purchased, but at this time, its durability had begun to decrease rapidly and it would not last long.
So, Zhu Zhixun and others all looked at Brother Ji.
This guy boasted before that no matter what kind of trouble you encounter, you can always come to him.
Now comes the trouble.
Brother Ji felt like shit in his heart.
That's not what I meant just now, what should I do now?
Although I can barely resist the high temperature here, I can't guarantee it if I take a few of you with me.
For a while, Brother Ji felt a little embarrassed.
Li Xiaofei felt happy when he saw it.
"Brother Ji, you should think of a way."
He said deliberately.
Brother Ji said vaguely, "Ah, let me think about it."
Horse riding.
You kid did it on purpose, right?
Embarrass me.
"What else can I think of?"
Li Xiaofei said, "Didn't you already give me the treasures you prepared for Brother Xun and the others? How can I take them out if you don't say anything?"
"ah?"
Liu Shaji was startled.
But he reacted very quickly.
"Yes, yes, if you didn't tell me, I almost forgot."
Brother Ji waved his hand and said, "Quickly, take out all the treasures I prepared and distribute them to Brother Xun. We have to hurry up and act."
Li Xiaofei then took out all the treasures given by the eldest princess from the Secret Palace of Time and distributed them to Zhu Zhixun and others.
"Very good."
"Thank you, Senior Chicken."
"Uh... no no no, it's hyung-senpai."
"Well……"
"There seems to be something wrong with calling it this name."
The five figures of Zhu Zhixun are talking about cross talk.
Liu Shaji was informal, waved his hand and said, "Just call me Brother Chicken."
Zhu Zhixun hesitated and said, "But you and Senior Li are the same generation. If we call you Brother Chicken, wouldn't it mess up the seniority?"
>
Liu Shaji said, "It's okay. Let's discuss it ourselves. In fact, if you really think about it, I'm not that old now."
That's right.
It has only been a few years since Brother Chicken was resurrected.
The age in this life is indeed not very old.
As they spoke, they put on their equipment and entered the crater of the endless flames.
Zhu Zhixun had a fire bead on his head.
Xiong Gang wears Lihuo robe.
Several other people also have various types of anti-high temperature equipment on their bodies.
For the sake of safety, Li Xiaofei held the Dark Sword in his hand and secretly activated the Blood Drinking Sword, hiding in the void. If any accident happened, he could respond instantly.
In the scorching and terrifying high temperature, several people quickly descended to a distance of 10,000 meters and arrived inside the mountain.
The belly of the volcano is hollow.
Below is a sea of orange fire.
The gurgling magma looks like boiling water.
Huge magma bubbles are spread all over the surface. At first glance, they look like sarcomas on a monster. They are densely packed and very unfriendly to patients with trypophobia.
"You follow me."
Liu Shaji once again showed his masterly demeanor and took the lead.
Zhu Zhixun and others were immediately filled with admiration.
Everyone searched.
No clues were found.
Brother Ji frowned and said, "Is there a mistake? This doesn't look like the prison where the sword immortal Lin Beichen is imprisoned. To be honest, the temperature is a bit high, but for an immortal emperor level intensifier like Lin Beichen, it's better to mix it with cold boiled water."
Pretty much."
Zhu Zhixun looked serious, thought for a moment, and said, "It shouldn't be wrong. We didn't learn about these five suspicious formations at once, but after hundreds of years of exploration and research, we finally came to the conclusion that the resistance army has paid a huge amount for this."
The price is unmistakable. Even if Senior Lin is not trapped here, there should at least be some clues and traces."
"Look for it more carefully."
Li Xiaofei said.
The space inside the belly of the Endless Flame Volcano is very huge, stretching for hundreds of miles, and the red light makes everything around it look unreal.
Everyone searched carefully again.
Still haven't found it.
Li Xiaofei's eyes fell on the boiling orange magma below.
"You wouldn't want to jump into the lava to check, would you?"
Brother Ji was slightly startled and quickly tried to dissuade him, "Don't be impulsive. This magma is different from the one in the real universe. The tens of millions of degrees of heat outside can't melt the rocks, but now the magma below is boiling like water. Do you think
Think about how hot it is inside."
Li Xiaofei said, "I'm here now, I have to try it."
While he was speaking, his expression suddenly moved slightly.
The next moment, a terrifying energy from above, like a world-destroying disaster, quickly bombarded down, covering all the people in it.
"careful."
Brother Ji also reacted immediately.
A lotus sword light rose into the sky in his hand, and in an instant, sword energy roared across the entire interior of the 'Endless Flame' volcano.
Li Xiaofei protected Zhu Zhixun and others by his side.
boom!
A violent explosion sounded.
The terrifying energy is like an impatient hurricane wave, sweeping crazily throughout the space in the belly of the mountain.
"Huh?"
A cry of surprise.
The attacker's figure gradually became clearer.
They are actually ‘acquaintances’.
The defender of Fortress No. 8, Windrunner leads ‘Yao’.
He was dressed in red robes, with a majestic figure, standing in the sky, fully displaying the magnanimity and coercion of an eighth-level reaper.
"I didn't expect that among you mice, there would be such a powerful master... Tsk tsk."
‘Yao’’s gaze was fixed on Liu Shaji, his strange pupils flashing with surprise and chill.
He said in surprise, "Human race? Only the human race can use this kind of combat skill. King Delta is really a waste, and he was actually infiltrated by human spies without knowing it."
Liu Shaji's eyes were filled with excitement.
Eighth-level reaper!
This is a good opponent.
More challenging than the eighth-level ruin beast.
He was full of fighting spirit, and phantoms of snow-white lotus petals appeared all over his body, flying like snowflakes, holy and beautiful.
"Can't waste time."
Li Xiaofei said loudly, "Leave him to me, Brother Ji. Go and sweep the outside to see if anyone else is chasing him."
Liu Shaji hesitated for a moment, then his body transformed into sword light and soared into the sky.
"Want to leave?"
‘Yao’ smiled lightly and said, “Leave me here.”
He rubbed his hands together.
The terrifying magma below was immediately picked up and turned into two terrifying fire dragons thousands of years long, roaring and winding towards Liu Shaji.
This is the innate magical power of the Windrunner clan.
They are born with the ability to control the wind, and can control other energies through wind control. At this time, they use the power of the wind to roll the magma to form a fire dragon, which is a way to use their innate magical power.
But how could Li Xiaofei let him interfere with Brother Ji?
He had already taken the broken sword from Zhu Zhixun's hand.
Inject magical power.
call out!
The sword flashed.
The two magma fire dragons were cut off and annihilated in an instant.
