Best Ascension

two months later,
At the east pole of the mainland, there is a smoky and rolling mountain range. There are dark black basalts all over here, and the mountain is flowing with scorching fiery red.
There are large and small craters all over the mountains, and from time to time, you can see a crimson lava fire column rising into the sky. Amidst the rumbling noise, billowing black smoke fills the sky.

This time is not the most spectacular scene in the Candle Mountains, and the scene here will be unforgettable in the night season.

Although the Zhuzhao Mountain Range is a dangerous place, and there are countless monsters and beasts living in the interior, there are hundreds of millions of creatures living outside the mountain range.

This volcanically active land is also a battleground for all the clans of the Nine Monsters Continent. Apart from being able to avoid the bitter cold and weirdness of the Dark Night Season, it is not only rich in aura, but also extremely rich in resources.

The real core area of ​​the Zhuzhao Mountains is a volcanic group with a range of thousands of miles. It is shrouded in extremely poisonous fire mist all the year round. Except for gods and men who can fly into the sky and escape from the earth, basically no mortal can approach it.

On this day, the fiery clouds in the sky were suddenly broken by a white jade flying saucer. The flying saucer swooped down and stopped outside the fire mist.

A door cracked silently on the surface of the white jade flying saucer, and Zhao Sheng flew out of it, followed by a vigorous woman with fiery red body and bright facial features.

Dao Yanfeng looked at Huo Sha in front of him, holding a mantra in his hand, and chanted a few unknown mantras in a very low voice.

In the next second, the white jade flying saucer shrank rapidly, turning into a palm-sized white saucer, which disappeared into the Nakong seal on the woman's waist in a flash.

"Master Sheng, this is the famous fire belt in the Zhuzhao Mountains. The spiritual vein occupied by the fierce flame lion will definitely satisfy you." Dao Yanfeng said to Zhao Sheng confidently but respectfully.

Zhao Sheng looked at the waves of heat coming in front of him, frowned but didn't say anything, but confirmed: "I need a spiritual vein with a spiritual accumulation higher than a hundred feet. Are you sure that the fierce flame lion is what I need? "

"Don't worry, my lord! My sword department has lived in Zhuzhao Mountain for more than two thousand years, and I am very familiar with the terrain of the mountain. My ancestors broke into the fire belt nine times, and finally managed to come out alive, and drew a map of the terrain. Picture. And that spiritual vein is the highest place in the picture, which will definitely satisfy you.

Besides, your lord has promised to accept a member of my tribe as an apostle.How dare I, Dao Yanfeng, deceive you? "After Dao Yanfeng finished speaking, she looked at Zhao Sheng sincerely, her eyes showed undisguised admiration.

In the Dark Night Realm, the level of spiritual veins is divided according to the height of the spiritual energy. Below a hundred feet is equal to the first-level spiritual veins, if it exceeds a hundred feet, it is the second-level spiritual veins, and if it is above a thousand feet, it is the third-level...

The Dao family that Dao Yanfeng belongs to is a large clan tribe that lives on the edge of the mountains. It respects the Dao surname and has vassalized many small families.

When Zhao Sheng first came to the Zhuzhao Mountains, he lacked a guide who was familiar with the terrain, and the knife happened to be in front of his route, so everything was logical.

The Dao family finally sent Dao Yanfeng, who has a foundational cultivation base, as a guide. The purpose is not pure, and it is quite a self-recommended pillow.

In the world of the underworld, the theory of bloodline rank is so deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Now seeing such a young Jindan Priest come to the tribe, it is no wonder that the Dao family is not tempted.

Zhao Sheng nodded after listening, and then waved his hand, a circle of golden flames rose up, protecting the two of them.

When the golden flame circle touched the red fire mist, there was a loud buzzing sound!
With a sound of "poof", the circle of light formed by the Golden Crow True Fire drove straight into the fire mist.

But seeing the Huosha mist tumbling violently for a while, and then returning to its original shape, Zhao Sheng and the two had already penetrated into it.

Along the way, there are many dangers encountered, but Zhao Sheng often flicks his fingers, a ray of sword light flashes, and the monsters, beasts and birds he encounters are all pierced to death.

Dao Yanfeng was frightened again and again, and kept taking out the dark yellow beast scroll map to compare the terrain.

Even so, it took the two of them a full two days to bypass the [-]-mile volcanic group, and came to a mountain range that was hotter than the surrounding area.

After searching according to the map for another half an hour, the two of them came to a huge mountain full of crimson, with dense forests and ancient trees.

There is a tall and deep cave near the top of the mountain, and the Fierce Flame Lion should be inside.

"Master Sheng, we're here. The ferocious lion's spirit sense is extremely keen, and I'm afraid we'll be discovered if we keep getting closer." Thirty or forty miles away from the cave, Dao Yanfeng stopped, and Zhao Sheng also Then stop the figure.

He looked up at the entrance of the cave under the giant peak in the distance. The closer he got there, the higher the temperature. Clouds of fire appeared faintly from the entrance of the cave, and the air exuded a stench.

"The strength of the Jindan-level Fierce Flame Lion is extraordinary. You retreat two hundred miles away first. I will find you in a maximum of two days." Zhao Sheng turned around and said expressionlessly.

Dao Yanfeng wanted to express herself very much, so she suggested with a sincere expression: "Master, the fierce flame lion is a natural fire spirit, and has the ability to control the power of the surrounding earth fire. There is a magma river under that cave, and the earth fire is endless. It would be too disadvantageous to fight it there. We might as well lure it out of the cave, trap it with a large formation, and kill it while we can."

"It's just a beast, don't bother!" Zhao Sheng nodded, but rejected her suggestion.

Seeing Zhao Sheng's stubbornness, this woman couldn't help but turn pale, and saluted hesitantly, "In that case, Feng'er wishes you success in advance!"

After she finished speaking, she turned around, and suddenly a large group of crimson flames rose from under her body, and the flames suddenly shot up into the sky, and flew into the distance very quickly.

……

After only half a meal, there was a deafening noise from the top of the mountain in the distance, and the whole mountain trembled violently.

"Whoosh"!
A huge blood-red fireball shot out from the cave, the entire cave burst open, and a large dazzling red cloud rolled out of it.

Immediately afterwards, a group of golden flames rushed out of the fire cloud and caught up with the bloody fireball in a flash.

Roar!
At this time, a shrill lion's roar shook the sky, and the fireball exploded instantly, revealing that it was a huge beast with a size of seven or eight feet and a red body that was as red as fire. With bright red hair, the four sturdy legs are covered with crimson scales, and the four feet are as sharp as dragon claws.

"Beast, do you want to die or live?!" Zhao Sheng's whole body was surrounded by real fire, hanging above the head of the flaming lion, and the divine consciousness with fierce eyes transmitted over.

The Jindan-level monsters have already opened up their spiritual intelligence. Although they can't understand human language, they can also understand the meaning of Zhao Sheng's spiritual consciousness.

If you don't want to die, you can surrender to the murderer in front of you.

Freedom or death?
"Roar!"

The ferocious flame lion's roar undoubtedly showed its attitude. A red pillar of fire spewed out from its mouth, hitting Zhao Sheng who was above him extremely quickly.

"Boom" sound.

The pillar of fire exploded suddenly, expanding into a huge sea of ​​flames hundreds of meters high, completely blocking Zhao Sheng's escape route.

"Hmph, looking for death! Take my life!" Zhao Sheng snorted coldly, and the real fire all over his body instantly boiled and turned into layers of fire shields to protect his whole body.

Then he stomped his feet, and suddenly a golden giant eleven or twenty feet tall appeared behind him.

In the next moment, Zhao Sheng fell from the sky with a thunderous force, stepping out of a large vacuum, and the ground within a hundred meters was sunken in an instant, like a large meteor crater.

In the center of the crater, the Fierce Flaming Lion spewed demonic blood. Its limbs were limp, and it lay on the ground in a state of embarrassment. Its thick back suddenly folded into a terrifying V shape, and seven or eight red and white stubbles were exposed. It was extremely miserable.

However, in the next moment, there was a roaring and whistling sound, and countless fists and bare feet came together, smashing the ferocious flame lion and spraying demon blood.

In fact, when Zhao Sheng's most proud power of manipulating fire was ineffective, it had already decided its final outcome.

But in a short while, there were densely packed large pits on the ground, and there were countless messes. A large amount of scalding demon blood was sprinkled for several miles nearby, and there were pieces of mottled and smashed fleshy bones everywhere on the ground.

After venting the depression that had been pent up in his heart for a long time, the fire flashed on Zhao Sheng's body, burning away the little blood stains on his robe, and also burning away his confusion about the future.

At this moment, his heart was as still as water.

……

Ten years later, the mountains were illuminated by candles, and the Dragon Mansion was raised.

On this day, the sky had just dawned, and just as Zhao Sheng was about to go to the ground fire room to prepare the alchemy, there was a sudden fluctuation in the restrictions outside the cave.

"Hey, why is she here!"

After Zhao Sheng swept his consciousness outside, his brows were wrinkled.

With a thought in his mind, the cave gate slowly opened.

Standing outside the door was a stunning woman in a red dress, with bright eyes and a grandeur. It was Dao Yanfeng.

After a while, the two sat down in the living room.

"Feng'er, what's the matter with coming to my place this time?" Zhao Sheng looked at the woman calmly, but found that his apostle had already hidden out early, and immediately had a guess in his heart. .

"Why, doesn't your lord welcome Feng'er? Could it be that your lord dislikes Feng'er's unattractive appearance?" Dao Yanfeng said sweetly.

Zhao Sheng frowned, and said calmly: "If it's okay, you can step back now! I'm going to make alchemy."

"My lord, don't be angry, Feng'er is here for business. You see."

This woman was not afraid of Zhao Sheng's appearance, and swept towards the table in front of her with one hand. After a red glow flowed, a large number of brocade boxes of different colors came out in an instant.

She looked at Zhao Sheng and said seriously: "My lord, these are the best elixir for refining the Xuanming Bone Tempering Pill. According to the original agreement, take four out of ten."

Hearing this, Zhao Sheng's spiritual consciousness swept across these elixirs, and suddenly with a palm movement, he stroked the largest brocade box among them, and the lid of the box opened immediately.

I saw a piece of green light inside, and there were several spherical mushrooms the size of heads.

These mushrooms seemed to be cut from a whole piece of corpse mushroom, and judging from the cutting method, the person who did it was also a master, and it didn't affect the spiritual power of the corpse mushroom itself at all.

The aura emitted by the mushroom umbrella is very strong. Compared with the high-energy mushroom meat that was occasionally obtained in the Sea of ​​Broken Stars back then, the spirituality contained in this thing is far more than the former.

"Sure enough, it is the corpse mushroom meat of the Golden Core Realm, and it seems that it has faintly advanced to the middle stage of the Golden Core... other elixir is also rare and high-grade in the market. With a little more confidence, I can give it a try." Zhao Sheng said slowly after pondering for a moment.

"For an alchemy master who can refine two dragon and tiger golden elixirs on the first try, it should not be difficult for adults to refine some Xuanming bone quenching elixirs!" Dao Yanfeng cried out with raised eyebrows. .

Zhao Sheng couldn't help being a little funny when he saw the other party taking it for granted.

This girl is also somewhat interesting, as a young master, her cultivation base is not weak, but she seems to understand the way of alchemy, but she wants to pretend that she understands it very well.

"Alchemy takes time and effort, but there is no rush. Even if I start the alchemy immediately, it will take about half a month!" Zhao Sheng replied affirmatively.

"It took so long! In this case, I might as well just wait here, your lord won't force me to leave, right?" Dao Yanfeng rolled her eyes and asked cautiously.

"If you want to stay, you can stay! The resting stone room is still in the old place." Upon hearing this, Zhao Sheng agreed to Dao Yanfeng's request without raising his eyelids.

"Your Excellency is really sympathetic to others!" Dao Yanfeng heard this, and there was an imperceptible sly smile on the corner of his mouth.

"But before that, there are some things I need to explain to you..." Zhao Sheng then thought of something.He explained to Dao Yanfeng that he should not go deep into the underground magma river.

When Dao Yanfeng heard the words, she didn't ask too much, and agreed to some of Zhao Sheng's instructions.

Only then did Zhao Sheng sweep away all the elixir ingredients, put them in his sleeves, then turned around and walked towards the fire room.

"Hmph, you can't escape. I, Feng'er, will be yours sooner or later!" Dao Yanfeng looked at the figure slowly walking away, and muttered to herself with the corner of her mouth curled up.

……

Fast forward 20 years.

Half a month has just passed in the night season.

In the early morning of this day, a row of white jade flying saucers was passing through the gray-white mountain ranges.

At this moment, the mutation protruded!
Ten miles away, among the rolling mountains on both sides, there was a deafening roar first, followed by an extremely astonishing sound of breaking through the air, hundreds of huge stones turned into a large stone rain, Like a meteor, it shoots toward the convoy.

"No, there is an ambush!"

Accompanied by a low sound of warning, the entire disc team boiled instantly.

Immediately afterwards, nearly a hundred sword clan guards flew out of the flying saucer in an instant, and the red blade wings on their backs slammed into the air. The dense wind blades shot out and connected together, facing the sky like a wall of wind The boulder roared away.

There was a dense sound of tearing gold and silk!

Before the wind blade, those boulders shattered in the air like tofu, and were broken down into dozens of small pieces, and a rain of fist-sized stones fell, but this kind of aftermath was nothing too much for the team. big threat.

Just when the smoke and dust in the air had not dissipated, a large number of alien races wearing various costumes appeared densely in the midair. They looked strange, and their numbers far exceeded the tribal guards.

The leader is a giant ugly man with a height of two feet, well-developed limbs, thick black hair all over his body, like a big black bear in human form.

After this person appeared, an invisible coercion rushed towards the people in the fire knife department in an instant.

Dao Xiaodao suddenly shouted wildly: "It's a ghost thief! It's not good, the leader seems to be Xiong Jia from the Bear Clan, who has the cultivation base of the early stage of Jindan, everyone be careful!"
