Battle Through the Heavens: The Inner Struggle of Cultivation Brings Xiao Yan to Tears

Chapter 123 Underground Magma

At this moment, hundreds of mercenaries were digging frantically in front of Xiao Yang.

Within a radius of one kilometer, there were mercenaries frantically digging with shovels.

Xiao Yang and Xiao Li stood to the side.

As for Xiao Ding, he was on his way to the Sand Mercenary Group to receive their assets.

Just then, a mercenary suddenly let out an excited voice.

"found it!"

"There's an underground passage here!"

One of the mercenaries shouted excitedly.

The sand in front of him began to collapse, revealing a small passage.

The temperature inside the passage was significantly hotter than outside.

With a flap of his purple cloud wings, Xiao Yang instantly arrived at the entrance of the passage.

A flicker of excitement flashed in his eyes.

Sure enough, the concentration of fire-attribute energy in this passage was extremely high.

Even in the desert, the high-density earth elemental energy is very thin.

Xiao Yang took out a Fighter Pill and tossed it to the mercenary.

"This is a reward for you."

The mercenary carefully took the jade bottle, a glint of wild joy flashing in his eyes.

"Thank you very much, Third Regiment Commander!"

The other mercenaries looked at this mercenary with great envy.

Xiao Yang had already mentioned this when they arrived.

They will be rewarded with a Fighter's Pill if they can find the underground passage.

As for the other mercenaries, they received a Qi-restoring powder and a blood-clotting powder as a reward.

"You deserve it."

After speaking, Xiao Yang turned to look at Xiao Li, who had followed him.

"Brother Li, it might be dangerous down there. You stay here and wait for me."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Li nodded and said with a solemn expression.

"Be careful, if things go wrong, run!"

He didn't intend to go down with Xiao Yang.

He knew that with the strength Xiao Yang had just displayed, if he followed him, he might not only fail to help Xiao Yang, but might also hold him back.

Xiao Yang didn't hesitate and went straight into the passage.

As Xiao Yang entered, the mercenaries around him put down their shovels.

Since they've already found everything, they don't need to dig anymore.

The mercenary who had managed to dig out the underground passage, seeing the envious looks from those around him, did not hesitate at all and put the Fighter Pill directly into his mouth.

A common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime.

Such a precious thing was beyond the reach of a mere mercenary like him.

There are a lot of people here right now, so it might not be a big deal yet.

However, if he is alone, he is very likely to be robbed.

Even though all those around him were his own brothers from the mercenary group.

However, even brothers might turn against each other for the sake of elixirs.

Therefore, it's best to take it now.

Soon, a rich concentration of spiritual energy appeared around the mercenaries.

These energies of heaven and earth surged rapidly into his body.

He also successfully broke through from a seven-star Dou Zhe to an eight-star Dou Zhe.

Among the mercenaries watching from the sidelines, a few had a hint of regret in their eyes.

……

As Xiao Yang ventured deeper into the underground passage, the surrounding temperature began to rise slowly.

The fire elemental energy here is extremely abundant.

Ordinary fire-attribute cultivators can cultivate here at a speed 50% faster than outside.

However, ordinary cultivators cannot cultivate here for too long.

The fire energy here is abundant, but extremely violent.

If you practice for too long, your meridians will be damaged.

After going several kilometers underground, Xiao Yang finally saw a red light emerging from a corner.

The earth elemental energy here has completely disappeared.

Now, only fire-attribute energy remains here.

Xiao Yang was now certain that this was the location of the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame.

Only a different kind of fire can be so domineering, dispersing the surrounding energy and leaving only fire-attribute energy.

Sure enough, as Xiao Yang turned the corner, he immediately saw a dazzling red light.

After the corner, there is a hole at the end.

The red light was coming from the cave entrance.

As Xiao Yang stepped out of the cave, he was immediately greeted by a red world.

The enormous cavern was filled with fiery red, high-temperature magma.

These lava flows as far as the eye can see, they're everywhere.

Every now and then, a bubble would rise from the magma.

The bubble will soon burst with a "pop".

As these bubbles burst, the magma explodes, like a firework.

Looking at the fiery red sea of ​​lava, Xiao Yang couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.

How do I find it?

He also forgot some of the content in the original work.

He hadn't expected the lava sea to be so vast.

He originally thought he could slowly search deeper into the magma and find it soon.

However, that thought quickly disappeared.

Because this sea of ​​lava is too big.

And the mercenaries above couldn't help him find it.

No one but him can enter the lava sea.

He could only hope that he would encounter the two-headed fire spirit snake that appeared in the original work.

Although Qinglin was not present, Xiao Yang, with his Beast Taming Technique, could still control the two-headed fire spirit snake.

He didn't immediately enter the sea of ​​lava, but went back to tell Xiao Li before returning here.

He told Xiao Li to take the mercenaries back first.

Anyway, he's not afraid of being buried.

After all, he possesses earth-attribute fighting spirit.

However, in the end, Xiao Li still left a few people to guard the place.

After informing Xiao Li, Xiao Yang returned to the front of the lava sea.

Suddenly, flames erupted from his body; these were the primordial flames.

Without hesitation, he jumped directly into the sea of ​​lava.

With the protection of the primordial fire, the surrounding temperature was not too high for Xiao Yang.

It's just a little hot.

However, after coming down, Xiao Yang discovered another huge problem.

That is, the magma sea, despite having the word "sea" in its name.

But lava is opaque!

He was below and could only see a red light.

Let alone things a few meters away.

He couldn't even see the things around him.

If Xiao Yang hadn't been able to use his soul power to investigate, he wouldn't have wanted to come down.

He tried his best to use his soul power to probe in one direction.

The high temperature in the surrounding area caused Xiao Yang's soul power to be consumed rapidly.

On the contrary, the consumption of battle qi was not much.

Activating the primordial fire would not consume much of Xiao Yang's battle qi.

As time went on, Xiao Yang ventured deeper and deeper into the magma sea.

If it weren't for gravity, he wouldn't even be able to tell where he was.
