C1311 Inside a volcano

What a high temperature, even a saint would not be able to stay here for long.

In a concealed place inside Mount Kanas, Qin Shaojie and Thoughtless hid between a large rock and waited for the patrolling warriors to leave before stealthily walking out. It was just that at this time, Wu Xin's entire body was already drenched in sweat, even someone at Qin Shaojie's level could feel a little displeasure from it.

The entire air was filled with an extremely hot and dry temperature and this temperature penetrated every inch of his body. Not only did it scorch his skin, it was even as if it had drilled into the organs of the human body and completely engulfed them. It was extremely difficult for Spirit Stage to resist, and as for the life and death realm and warriors of the lower levels, it was almost impossible for them to enter and stay here.

Fortunately, although Wuxin was not very strong, it was still a strange item. He could still manage to stay a bit longer.

Qin Shaojie and Thoughtless had been carefully avoiding the guards and patrols on the parchment after they had entered Mount Kanas. They did their best to make their movements as quiet as possible, but fortunately, they were able to restrain their auras completely. Otherwise, once they used the profound energy to protect themselves, they would have been discovered by the strong practitioners within.

They had already discovered that there was the aura of a Saint and not just one or two of them.

Although Qin Shaojie was not afraid, or even had enough confidence to escape safely, his true goal was the Golden Crow Sword. If he were to be entangled with these saints, then his plan of stealing the Golden Crow Sword would have completely declined.

The deeper they went, the more obvious the sweat stains on their foreheads became. It had to be said that the walk inside was akin to being on a furnace. He could even faintly feel the burnt smell that was spreading in the air. It was likely that the smell was the sign of the experts within the volcano being incinerated without them noticing.

Qin Shaojie had observed before, although there were not many strong experts here, they were all experts, and the weakest among them had reached the Sky Origin Stage Realm. From this, one could see the importance that the three sects attached to Mount Kanas. In the outside world, even a Domain Palace would not dare to underestimate the quality of such a strong practitioner.

Moreover, the people inside were in a hurry to return. They never lowered their heads and whispered to each other. It must be due to the strict rules that prevented them from making any noise. They didn't even look at each other much and just continued to take care of their own business.

Volcanoes were a process from top to bottom. If one wanted to truly come into contact with the magma or the core underneath, they would need to go deeper and deeper.

Under normal circumstances, if they were to rush down from the entrance of the volcano, they would definitely be discovered, so Qin Shaojie and Wu Xin chose a safer method, they slowly climbed down the cliff.

Moreover, they did not have the heart to use their auras to wrap around the two of them. This allowed the two of them to almost perfectly merge with the volcanic cliff, and even if they whistled past each other, it was extremely difficult to detect anything unusual about the two of them.

After all, the entire tunnel was boiling with the hot temperature of the magma below. No one was willing to stay in the tunnel for too long. All they wanted was to leave this so-called tunnel as soon as possible. Of course, this method seemed much safer, but in reality, it was filled with too much uncertainty.

If one were to accidentally fall, it would mean that the magma contained an unfathomable amount of destructive energy, and the magma would be able to directly expose one's own aura. Of course, the most serious problem was still the burning hot cliff. This kind of boiling temperature was over ten times that of the air. One could even hear a clear 'chi chi' sound just by sticking a little to the surface. Clearly, he was burning everything.

The heat from the surroundings of the volcano caused the surroundings to be filled with desert, and not a single blade of grass grew on top of the volcano. This kind of scene was definitely closely related to the temperature. But because of this relationship, the volcanic cliff became even hotter, and even someone on a higher level like Qin Shaojie had a twisted expression.

As for Wu Xin, logically speaking, with his strength, he had no right to touch the cliff. It was just too scary, so he simply let Qin Shaojie carry him. On one hand, he could completely naturalize Qin Shaojie's aura so that no one else would notice. On the other hand, it was because he had an extremely strong recovery ability that even if someone were to be discovered and attacked, they would at least be able to guarantee Qin Shaojie's peak condition. It would be easier for the two of them to escape.

On the other hand, Qin Shaojie's face was currently flushed red, this was only just the beginning. Although there were many lines and cracks on the cliff that led to the entrance of the volcano, allowing him to use these cracks to hide himself within them, and even using them as a place to rest and fall, it was undeniable that the deeper he went, the more terrifying the temperature would become.

If not for the fact that he had personally witnessed it, Qin Shaojie might not have believed that a mere cliff could release such a temperature that even Saints would find it difficult to touch …

This kind of temperature had a very obvious restraining effect on the Xuan Qi of Heaven and Earth. Even if one had a lot of Xuan Qi, it would not be very much different compared to this kind of temperature.

This was also the reason why Zhuo Li said that he would prepare for death once he entered this place.

Other than the few warriors in Between the Heavens and the Earth, if an ordinary person stayed here for a little longer, they would die.

He had seen many Sky Origin Stage and even saints constantly shuttling through this passage. This sort of shuttling was mostly to outside the volcano to slightly ease the damage to the body caused by the blazing fire poison. Otherwise, if they really stayed in this place for a period of time, it would be extremely harmful to the body!

But even so, Qin Shaojie knew clearly that the most terrifying thing about the volcano was the heat that continuously spread out from the cliff wall. And the further in he went, the more obvious the temperature became. And at the end, even when Qin Shaojie was using the profound energy in his body, it did not have much effect on the burning energy in his body.

He could only grit his teeth and continue forward.

During this process, he had also seen quite a number of experts rush out from below. However, a smile had also surfaced on their faces. Clearly, they had obtained some benefits from the small world with treasures below.

Finally, after descending several hundred meters, Qin Shaojie began to continuously pant for heavy breathing, which also seemed like burning flames. At this moment, his clothes were completely destroyed, and his naked body was similar in color to the red-hot rock wall. Standing on the rock wall, it was like a crack, unnoticeable.

However, he was not used to this kind of appearance. He was a dignified man, yet he had fallen to such a state! What was most unbearable was that this Thoughtless seemed to stick to his body and didn't move at all. To put it senselessly, he had used his aura to perfectly cover Qin Shaojie for safety's sake.

Regarding this, Qin Shaojie could only say one sentence.

Hm? Where is it? What a rich force of the mystical Qi of heaven and earth!

Finally, after another three hundred meters, the entire central passageway of the volcano had long since been filled with the blazing heat and scorching flames below. It might even severely affect their line of sight.2

However, right in front of his own rock wall, a crack about a hundred feet wide appeared in his line of sight. There didn't seem to be anything special about this crevice, but all of the martial artists that came in and out of the three gates were in this crevice.

They also saw two Saints guarding the entrance of the crevice. It was obvious that the crevice wasn't as simple as it looked, but rather that it must be filled with hidden secrets.

Previously, Zhuo Li said that there was a small world inside the volcano, and the real goal of the three sects this time was the small world.

The current Tian Yuan Continent was no longer the Tian Yuan Continent of a hundred thousand years ago, the resources within had already started to dry up after years of constant use by the human race. Some of the ancient secret worlds and countless minor worlds had all been developed. Thus, the continuous decrease in resources allowed the competition between the various sects to become even more obvious.

In order to stabilize this competitive relationship, the three sects were already prepared to launch a war to purge the humans. Thus, when the first demons appeared, the three sects were completely aware of it and had the ability to destroy it, but they wanted to borrow the power of the demons to properly purge the humans, allowing the world's resources to have more time to regenerate. It was a pity that what happened next went beyond their imagination and wasn't under their control.

Such a situation was enough to show how precious the resources were to them.

Since this small world was able to attract the attention of three sects, it meant that the items within were even more difficult to part with.

If we go in and take a look, we might be able to find some amazing treasures. Wuxin was also a master that didn't mind matters. His eyes flashed with excitement as he spoke. A small world guarded by a saint must not be simple at all. Moreover, Zhuo Li had previously said that there were the least number of Saints today. Yet, they had already reached five. One could imagine just how strict they were within their ranks.

If they stole something that all three of them cared about, the three sects would probably fly into a rage.

Our main goal this time is also the only goal at the moment, and that is to find a way to steal the Golden Crow Sword. As for the other matters, it's best for you to restrain your thoughts. Qin Shaojie also suppressed his unintentional thoughts.

He did not have that much courage and confidence. He believed that he could completely exterminate the experts from the three sects within the volcano by himself.

After all, most of the profound energy in his body had already been exhausted, to the point where even he was not certain if he could last until the last moment when he saw the Golden Crow Sword. If he had to waste more Xuan Qi in this, he could just give up on this operation.

However, what surprised Qin Shaojie was that the profound energy that was roaring out of the crevice right now was extremely pure and thick, and had even vaguely formed a profound energy barrier, wrapping the crevice inside, and vaguely forming a confrontation situation with the lava inside the volcano.

This profound energy could even quickly let these practitioners, who were unable to withstand the temperature and fire poison from the outside world, recover.

Therefore, he could see that most of the martial artists had to stop at the entrance for a moment. Yes, it was his aura that had recovered a bit before leaving or entering the crevice.

This strange scene seemed to be telling him that this crack was very different from the others. It was no wonder that it had attracted the attention of the other three sects.

Previously, Zhuo Li didn't mention what was inside either. He only knew that there were a lot of treasures here.

If he could obtain the Golden Crow Sword, then he could find a way to enter.

However, just as Qin Shaojie was prepared to leave and delve deeper, Wu Xin opened his mouth once again.

This time, his words were much more serious than last time. There was even a hint of desire.

Give me a reason. Frowning anxiously, Qin Shaojie also asked solemnly.

There's something I need here, something that can help me recover a lot!
