Ye Hao's pretty face twitched, and his eyes became bloodshot. He pushed the Spiritual Sense to the limit as he went deeper into the volcano.
Below was a vast expanse of lava. The temperature was so hot that even the air seemed to be distorted and hazy. The lava slowly rippled like a tidal wave and bubbled like boiling water.
It could be imagined how, even if it was a cultivator of the Great Perfection of Life Sea, if they accidentally fell into the magma, they would definitely be incinerated into nothingness.
These days, Ye Hao had been constantly probing the bottom of the magma. He felt that there seemed to be an extremely strong force here, but it was floating around and was extremely difficult to capture.
His current Physical Strength had already infinitely neared the twenty thousand jin threshold, but no matter how many Flame Energy he refined, he was still unable to charge through this barrier.
Ye Hao understood that if he wanted to break through this bottleneck, he could only do it in one go by borrowing the powerful and erratic energy within the magma.
"You've been searching like this for so many days, and yet you still came up empty-handed. Could it be that you've made a mistake in your senses?" Outside the cave, Han Yitian asked in confusion.
Ye Hao shook his head and did not say anything because not only him, even Shen Jiuyou could feel the abnormality below. It was just that Shen Jiuyou was too weak right now, otherwise, with the power of the Spiritual Sense, he would have figured out the reason.
"What could be inside this volcano? There's only a month left before the opening of the academy's Ancestral Land, so we don't have much time left. " Han Yitian sat down and continuously fanned himself with his palm. At the same time, he also frowned and started to think.
After a long while, Han Yitian seemed to have thought of something, he jumped into the cave, and his eyes lit up: "Ye Hao, I seem to have heard from the older disciples that in addition to the Flame Energy, there is also an incomparably rare and unique object in the Flame Spirit Realm, and in the history of the Tianxuan Academy, the number of people who have obtained this item are few and far in between."
"Strange item?" "What is it?" Ye Hao raised his head slightly and looked at Han Yitian with bloodshot eyes.
"Flame Spirit Soul Essence!" Han Yitian said word by word with a serious expression.
"It is said that this Flame Spirit Soul Essence is a unique object of the Flame Spirit Realm. It contains the same kind of energy as the Flame Energy, but its energy density is a hundred times greater than that of the Flame Energy!" Han Yitian's breathing slightly quickened as he said with a fiery expression.
These rumors were all rumors that he had heard before he had entered the Flame Spirit Realm, and he had been especially reminded by some of his well-connected senior sisters.
At the moment, seeing that Ye Hao seemed extremely confident and that there was something underneath the volcano, Han Yitian couldn't help but recall this matter.
However, even though he was excited, there was still some hesitation in his eyes, because almost no one had ever seen this Flame Spirit Soul Essence before. It was said that in the long history of Tianxuan Academy, it had only appeared two or three times, and no one even knew who had obtained it.
"Flame Spirit Soul Essence …"
Ye Hao narrowed his eyes. Although Han Yitian was only a rumor, he was already pretty much assured.
Because to his senses, the powerful energy that was hibernating in the magma did indeed seem to be of the same origin as the Flame Energy, but it was more than a hundred times thicker and more violent.
"It must be that thing. Brother Han, thank you very much." Ye Hao's eyes showed his determination. He got up and walked to the cliff at the deepest part of the cave. He then looked down at the magma that was like a sea of fire.
"Hey, hey, Ye Hao, what are you doing?" Han Yitian hugged Ye Hao in fear and shouted, "We can't go down there. Even Tao Soul Stage cultivators don't know if they can withstand the temperature of the magma. You better not court death."
"Who said I'm going down?"
Ye Hao looked at Han Yitian as though he was an idiot. He smacked the Storage Bag with his palm. Immediately, a tall and icy-cold figure that was filled with an oppressive feeling appeared at the side.
"This is …" War Puppet of the Tao Soul Stage? "
Seeing a figure that suddenly appeared at the side, Han Yitian's eyes widened as his face stiffened: "You even have this kind of treasure?"
"You want to control the War Puppet to go down?" In an instant, Han Yitian understood Ye Hao's thoughts, and frowned, "Even this War Puppet might not be able to withstand the temperature of the magma, and it is also unknown whether or not the Flame Spirit Soul Essence really exists, if you recklessly send the War Puppet down to search, then it would be fine. But if you cannot find it, then we will have lost this Precious Treasure for nothing."
Ye Hao was clear about this point, but in order for the Physical Strength to break through the 20,000 jin mark and open up an even higher grade Life Sea, he had to take the risk.
Ignoring Han Yitian, Ye Hao sat down cross-leggedly as the Spiritual Sense converged into the War Puppet. He controlled the Spiritual Sense to jump down towards the lava below.
His current Spiritual Sense was still not strong enough, and could not accurately capture the floating strength in the magma. Only by attaching the Spiritual Sense to the War Puppet, would he be able to investigate more clearly.
Bang!
War Puppet suddenly rushed into the lava, splashing a thick liquid with flames on it. Han Yitian, who was looking from above, felt his eyes twitch.2
As for Ye Hao, the moment the Spiritual Sense attached to the War Puppet rushed into the magma, it suddenly felt a sharp pain. The temperature inside the magma was so high that even his Spiritual Sense could not withstand it.
If not for Ye Hao's Spiritual Sense's power being continuously refined by the Nether Lightning Seed, which was far stronger than an ordinary person's, it probably would have been completely scattered by now.
"Over there!"
As the War Puppet descended, Ye Hao's reaction to the floating power became clearer and clearer. Resisting the burning pain of the Spiritual Sense, he controlled the War Puppet and quickly flew towards the left front.
However, after walking forward for a while, Ye Hao also discovered that the source of the energy was fluctuating left and right. It was still extremely difficult to capture it clearly.
"What the hell is that thing!"
At this moment, even Ye Hao could not help but curse in his heart. In the hellish temperature, his Spiritual Sense could not endure for long and if he continued to delay, this portion of his Spiritual Sense would completely collapse. To cultivators, this was not a small injury.
"..."
Finally, after half an incense stick of time passed in the lava, just when Ye Hao and the Spiritual Sense were about to be unable to endure it anymore, a pigeon egg the size of an egg appeared in front of them.
"Found it!"
Feeling that the tiny crystal was filled with a vast energy that far surpassed that of Flame Energy, Ye Hao was shocked. He immediately controlled the War Puppet to rush out and grab it.
Immediately, an indescribably terrifying heat spread out like the flames of hell. Under this terrifying heat, even the War Puppet's metal body gradually melted.
Ye Hao was panicking in his heart. He endured the pain from the Spiritual Sense and controlled it to quickly float up.
However, the moment War Puppet rushed out of the lava, Ye Hao and the Spiritual Sense could no longer hold on and broke apart.
Without the Spiritual Sense's control, half of the refined iron War Puppet seemed to have lost its power, the upper half of its body was exposed outside the magma, in its hand was the sun-like scarlet crystal, while the lower half of its body was still inside the magma.
Slowly sinking.
