Two hundred miles away from Tianlong City, the imperial capital of Longyuan Kingdom, a high mountain stands abruptly on the vast plain.
The air at the peak of more than 20,000 meters is thin, the temperature is extremely cold, and there is no snow at all. Zhiyin is an active volcano that sprays thick smoke all year round. A large amount of volcanic ash is floating in the air, depositing thick layers on the ground within a hundred miles.
A thick layer filled the air with the pungent smell of sulfur.
There are almost no animals or plants on the mountain, and there are no traces of living things nearby. For ordinary people, the mountain itself, which is more than 20,000 meters high, is an almost insurmountable restricted area.
Four black horses pulled a carriage, which ran out from the north gate of Tianlong City and headed straight for the mountain. An hour later, it stopped at the foot of the mountain.
Xia Lei and Odin jumped out of the carriage, carrying large bundles of chopstick-thick steel ropes in their hands.
Half a day ago, the caravan arrived at Tianlong City. The employer immediately took the goods and separated from Xia Lei and others. He did not want to provoke these evil stars. Of course, they had been eating and lodging together these days, and they had already hooked up with each other.
, the employer also dared not report the matter to the government, otherwise he would probably be considered an accessory and dealt with accordingly.
After the disguise, Xi'er, Fu Lei and others temporarily settled in Tianlong City, including more than ten hired guards who recognized Xia Lei as their boss.
As for Xia Lei and Odin, they bought a large number of ropes that were strong enough and went straight to the peak where Long Yuan was located.
"Boss, would you like us brothers to go with you?" The two guys driving the car looked forward to it.
"Remember, be careful during this period. Send someone to pay attention to the movement in the direction of Longyuan Mountain every day. If there is any situation, run away immediately."
Xia Lei warned again, patted the two of them lightly on the shoulders a few times, lifted the steel cable weighing thousands of kilograms with ease, and jumped more than ten meters in a flash. He and Odin were like projectiles, almost
In one breath, they were already a thousand meters away, and the two younger brothers were already accustomed to it, with envy and admiration shining in their eyes.
It wasn't until the figure disappeared from sight that they returned to the carriage, turned around, and drove towards Tianlong City...
As fast as a shooting star.
Faster than lightning.
With a cultivation level that is not weaker than the fifth level of martial arts, with tens of thousands of kilograms of strength in his hands and feet, how can he still play with a few thousand kilograms of steel cable?
The two of them were like two shadows, climbing rapidly towards the top of the mountain. The temperature outside also continued to drop, and the air became thinner and thinner.
Of course, this environment has no impact on them.
Every year, one hundred thousand girls are sent up and pushed into the crater at a height of 20,000 meters. Ordinary people can climb up, let alone the top masters of the fifth level of martial arts. It is also because of the human physique in this world that it is replaced by
Humans on the original Earth would have died if they could not climb even half of a peak of more than 20,000 meters.
In less than twenty minutes, the two of them appeared on the top of a mountain 20,000 meters high. The temperature was as high as tens of degrees, and the pungent smell of sulfur mixed with it was almost suffocating.
The temperature outside is as low as over 50 degrees below zero, but the heat emitted by the active volcano makes the temperature near the crater extremely high.
Carefully walking to the edge of the crater, the two of them looked inside.
Although the eyesight is much better than that of ordinary people, it is still unable to penetrate the thick smoke of volcanic ash, and can only vaguely see the red light flowing, which contains mysterious magic power.
The soul and energy were bound by strange powers, and magical powers could not be used. It was not that their cultivation was abolished, but their sensitivity to special existences still did not disappear. In fact, before they reached the top of the mountain, the two of them had already felt the volcano
There is a problem inside, which contains extremely majestic, pure, and mysterious spiritual power.
Odin frowned and pointed at the red light flowing in the volcano: "It turns out that this is a very huge magic circle that has absorbed the spiritual energy on the planet."
"The Spirit Gathering Immortal Formation draws out all the spiritual energy to provide energy for deeper seals." Xia Lei muttered to himself.
"Does that mean that only by destroying the deeper seal can this damn shackles be released?"
"At the same time, the sealed creatures will be released."
Xia Lei took a deep look at him, lowered the steel rope down the crater, and said: "I'll go down, and you watch the steel rope from above. This is the formation of the fairy world. Although I am not good at formation, it is better than you."
Know better."
Before the restraint is released, there is a huge difference between their strength and their actual cultivation. Even mortals may kill them, let alone this dragon abyss full of unknowns?
Entering the Dragon Abyss means that we are closer to the crisis. He took the initiative to ask for help, which made Odin stunned.
A steel cone as thick as an arm and as long as two meters was driven into the mountain and fixed one end of the steel cable. Just as Xia Lei was preparing all this, Odin suddenly said: "If I were born away from this place, I would like to become a brother with you."
, okay?"
"You don't regret it?"
Xia Lei tilted his head and looked at him. Without waiting for the other party to answer, he grabbed the steel rope and jumped into the crater with a loud smile: "Okay! A tiger's father has no dog's son, and the reverse is also true. It seems that Thor did inherit your inheritance.
Gene……"
It's hot!
The temperature in the crater has reached at least 40 degrees Celsius. Needless to say, the temperature inside has continued to rise as it continues to fall, reaching 60 degrees Celsius about 300 meters away.
Although he has the strength of the fifth level of martial arts, at least the comparison between pure power and true energy is still not as good as that of a martial arts master with true energy in some aspects. At least, he does not have the ability to release true energy to protect the body.
Just like in the battle a few days ago, it was impossible to deflect arrows with Zhen Gang, now it is also impossible to isolate the high temperature from the outside world.
Fortunately, his physical strength is far beyond that of ordinary people, otherwise he would not be able to endure such a harsh environment.
High temperature, lack of oxygen, sulfur gas, and volcanic ash are enough to make ordinary people die a hundred times, and even for Xia Lei, they are a bit unbearable.
At 1,200 meters, the temperature reached an astonishing 80 degrees. Xia Lei was sweating profusely, but could not hide the excitement in his eyes.
The interior of the volcano is in the shape of an inverted funnel, and the space becomes wider and larger as you go downwards. The diameter of the space here is several thousand meters.
This is the source of the red light seen above. More than 20 meters below the feet, a huge magic circle is slowly moving. Hundreds of millions of fiery red runes the size of a fly's head, exuding the eternal power.
The aura of vicissitudes of life, its complexity and miraculousness are by no means comparable to the magic arrays seen in the past.
However, there is more than one such mysterious magic circle, layer upon layer all the way down, God knows how many there are?
Gathering Spirit Formation!
Xia Lei could clearly sense that countless magic circles gathered a terrifying amount of spiritual energy, but outside the magic circles, there was no surge of spiritual energy.
It seems that the spiritual energy of the entire world does not gather from everywhere, but teleports directly into the spirit-gathering fairy formation, which is full of soul-absorbing mysteries. It can condense the spiritual energy of the entire continent, or even the entire planet.
, without even the process of gathering spiritual energy, it directly turns the planet into a vacuum state of spiritual energy. How powerful is this magic circle?
Of course, these spirit-gathering fairy formations are very simple and only serve to gather spiritual energy. Even ordinary people can pass through them smoothly, provided they can withstand the harsh environment inside the volcano.
Xia Lei doesn't think he has the ability to break the Spirit Gathering Immortal Formation. His goal is to find a deeper seal.
The length of the steel cable was several kilometers long. He continued to move down, paying careful attention to the changes around him. With his current ability, if he fell into the volcano, he would definitely be burned to ashes and no bones would be left.
At 1500 meters, oxygen is almost non-existent and the temperature exceeds 90 degrees.
2000 meters away, there is endless smoke, no oxygen, and the temperature exceeds 100 degrees.
At 2,500 meters, Xia Lei's whole body was sore and weak, and he was extremely dehydrated.
If he were a master of the fifth level of martial arts who cultivated his true energy, he could easily block hundreds of degrees of heat, sulfur gas, and volcanic ash when he released his true energy. If he used Turtle Breath Technique 3, he would not be able to breathe for two hours without any problem. However, after all, he
Without true energy, he would not be able to display the abilities possessed by many warriors of the same level. His only advantage is his powerful physical body.
The beating speed of the heart dropped to one beat every five minutes. A warrior of the same strength would have died long ago, and only a body like his could sustain it.
"I can't stand it anymore. If I can't find the seal anymore, I will have to go up..."
Xia Lei screamed desperately in his heart, scanning the surrounding space of tens of thousands of meters, but still couldn't see anything that attracted attention.
Time passed little by little, and Odin, who was waiting outside the crater, had cold sweat on his palms.
Sudden!
A figure ran from below at a very fast speed, and a sharp laughter penetrated the ears faintly: "Haha...Old friend, are you here too?"
Odin took a closer look, and his heart suddenly went cold: "Eamon?!"
Eamon, who was dressed in fine clothes, reached his head in a blink of an eye, glanced at the steel cone nailed to the ground, and said with a sinister smile: "It seems that someone has already gone down, and I got here in time. Odin, are you really going to follow?"
Will he cooperate? Have you forgotten what this guy did to us in the first place?"
"How did you find this place?" Odin asked coldly.
"A cavalry from the Longyuan Kingdom was killed, and a thousand elite cavalry were killed. The rebels have lost the ability to resist. Apart from you, I really can't think of anyone else who can do it."
There is nothing in the world but the king's land, and nothing on the shore of the land is the king's ministers. Even if ordinary people have that ability, they will never dare to take action against the army sent by the king of Longyuan Kingdom. Those who have the courage and ability to do this can only have high cultivation level.
Xia Lei and Odin definitely do not belong to this world.
So, Eamon used this clue to follow the map, eliminate all possibilities, and finally found the caravan.
As long as he finds the caravan, it is not difficult to find the two of them with his ability. He chuckled and said: "Thanks to the carriage returning to the city from here, Longyuan Mountain is a barren land with many crises. Normally no one comes here.
Here, so...unfortunately, the carriage left clear traces in the soft volcanic ash."
Odin took a deep breath and nodded: "Don't you want to leave here?"
"Of course I do."
Eamon did not deny his thoughts and shrugged his shoulders: "But I can do it myself. Don't try to persuade me to cooperate. If you don't kill him now, you will have no chance in the future."
As soon as he finished speaking, his face turned cold as he unsheathed his sword and struck at the steel cable.
