The roar of the ferocious beast underground shocked Nie Tian so much that he vomited blood and his mind kept roaring.
He looked horrified and subconsciously took a few steps back, a little further away from the huge hole. He was shocked beyond measure.
Just a single beast's roar caused him, who thought he was extremely strong physically, to be slightly injured, which gave him a hint of fear.
It was hard for him to imagine how powerful that vague ferocious beast that moved in the molten flames and fire liquid could be!
He also noticed just now that when the vague ferocious beast showed a slight trace, the crystal-like ribbons covered in the magma and fire water, and all the ancient runes flowing inside, all became brilliant and dazzling!
He clearly remembered that when the Flame Dragon Armor sank three times, only a small part of the ancient runes in the ribbons lit up brilliantly.
He suddenly realized that the real purpose of the colorful ribbons that existed deep in the center of the Red Flame Mountains was to prevent the ferocious beast from rushing out from the center of the earth!
"howl!"
Another earth-shaking roar erupted from the molten flames in the center of the earth. This time, Nie Tian, who had been prepared for it, used his spiritual power and guarded his eardrums and internal organs to withstand it.
He saw that there seemed to be three long tails sliding through the magma and fire liquid at the entrance of the huge cave.
"In the core of the earth's magma fire liquid, and has three tails..."
He calmed down and thought carefully about some of the powerful spiritual beasts his master had told him, and suddenly a flash of inspiration came to him.
"Earth Flame Beast! It's Earth Flame Beast!"
Wu Ji once told him that there is a strange spiritual beast that lives in the lava in the center of the earth. This spiritual beast is called the Earth Flame Beast.
The Earth Flame Beast is an extremely violent and ferocious flame spirit beast that seems to have the bloodline of a fire unicorn!
The cultivation, growth, and advancement of the Earth Flame Beast are all extremely dependent on the magma flames in the center of the earth.
Once they find a suitable molten pool in the core of the earth, they will inhabit it, spontaneously gather the power of fire, and integrate it into the molten pool in the core of the earth little by little.
Even if the area where the Earth Flame Beasts are located was previously humid and rainy, due to their presence, it will gradually evolve into a place of flames where volcanoes often erupt.
As long as they survive, the nearby flame energy will be attracted by them and gradually merge into the molten pool in the center of the earth where they are located.
Over time, the areas where they operate and the peaks will turn into mountains of flames. As they practice and gather more flame power, those volcanoes will often erupt.
"Crimson Flame Mountain Range... was it really formed because of this Earth Flame Beast?"
Nie Tian's eyes were filled with strange colors. He looked at the crystal-like ribbons and suddenly realized that the top experts in Lingbao Pavilion must have known about the existence of the Earth Flame Beast for a long time.
Otherwise, those crystal-like ribbons would not extend here and cover the entire Chiyan Mountains.
He secretly guessed that a certain strong man in Lingbao Pavilion located the gate of Lingbao Pavilion in the Red Flame Mountains after discovering the existence of the Earth Flame Beast.
With the presence of the Earth Flame Beast, the molten pool deep in the earth's core will always gather the power of flames, making the three gushing volcanoes never stop.
Most of the spiritual masters of the Ling Sect who cultivated with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, as well as the weapon refiners of the Bao Pavilion who refined spiritual weapons, relied on blazing flames.
The existence of the Earth Flame Beast makes the aura of heaven and earth near Lingbao Pavilion contain rich power of fire.
The flames from the center of the earth were pulled out, part of which formed the "Earth Fire Burning the Sky" formation, and part of which flowed into the refining rooms in the caves for the treasure pavilion's refining masters to refine the artifacts.
However, the power of flames is not infinite. With the consumption power of many disciples of Lingbao Pavilion, it would have been possible to squander all the flame aura in this place after thousands of years.
And the Earth Flame Beast can change everything!
It continuously absorbs the flame breath near the Red Flame Mountains into the molten pool!
Its existence allows Lingbao Pavilion to stand tall in the Red Flame Mountains, with inexhaustible flames for cultivation and weapon refining.
"Ouch! Ouch!"
While Nie Tian was deep in thought, the earth flame beast in the lava fire was roaring crazily again, trying to break out of the shackles, escape from the shackles of the crystal-like ribbon, and walk out of the molten pool in the center of the earth.
"It should also have noticed the changes in the Earth Fire Burning Sky Formation and seen an opportunity, so it is so impatient and eager."
When escaping from the valley where Lingbao Pavilion was located, a corner of the Earth Fire Burning Sky Formation had been torn apart. Afterwards, Fang Hui realized that the battle was in danger and took the initiative to withdraw the formation so that the disciples of the sect could have more opportunities. Escape options.
Fang Hui's decision left the Earth Fire Burning Sky Formation incomplete and gave the Earth Flame Beasts in the molten pool hope.
"call!"
At this moment, the Flame Dragon Armor, which had been dormant for a while, suddenly flew out again.
"Stop making trouble, right?" Nie Tian was stunned for a moment, then persuaded with a wry smile: "It can't even break out of the center of the earth, so don't waste your efforts."
From Nie Tian's point of view, all the ancient runes on those ribbons were now dazzling due to the ferocity of the Earth Flame Beast.
The sealing power coming from the huge network of crystal-like ribbons was countless times more powerful than before.
If you try the Flame Dragon Armor at this time, not only will there be no chance, but the counterattack force will completely extinguish the fireworks. It is better to be calm and wait quietly for the Flame Beast to attack the shackles.
I don't know if I heard his call, but the Yanlong Armor really didn't mess around this time. Instead, it was suspended half a meter above the crystal-shaped ribbons.
A strange aura that he could feel slightly rippled from the blood core on the Flame Dragon Armor, quietly seeping down like smoke.
This time, the Flame Dragon Armor did not sink in a hurry, but... used its breath to explore the way.
Nie Tian could sense that aura, but he didn't understand its meaning.
But the Earth Flame Beast that had previously swayed its three giant tails and left the molten pool below seemed to sense a strange aura coming from the Flame Dragon Armor.
The flaming beast immediately stopped roaring crazily and seemed to swim back slowly from a distance.
When Nie Tian looked at it intently, he found that because those crystal-like ribbons were just above the molten pool, the Earth Flame Beast seemed to be concerned about the power of those ribbons and never dared to show its head.
Therefore, Nie Tian could only vaguely see a vague giant shadow, and could not truly see what the Earth Flame Beast looked like.
He only saw the Earth Flame Beast sunk in the molten pool, stopping just below the Flame Dragon Armor, as if he was carefully sensing the blood core aura inside the Flame Dragon Armor.
Across that thin layer of crystalline giant network, Nie Tian's spiritual consciousness could not sense it, but he knew that the Earth Flame Beast... and the Flame Dragon Armor were communicating in a way that he could not understand.
Nie Tian suddenly froze.
The blood core of the Flame Dragon Armor communicated with the Earth Flame Beast in the molten pool across the thin layer of crystalline giant network, and seemed to quickly reach some kind of agreement.
Then, Nie Tian saw the molten pool where the Earth Flame Beast was, and suddenly a turbulent wave arose.
Some kind of strange magnetic field seemed to be generated from the molten pool. As soon as the magnetic field was formed, it seemed to affect the changes in the aura of heaven and earth.
The Earth Flame Beast can pull the power of flames and funnel the energy of flames into the molten pool one by one, keeping the magma flames in the center of the earth strong.
At this moment, the Earth Flame Beast seems to have stimulated its bloodline talent!
Soon, Nie Tian noticed that the rich spiritual energy of heaven and earth flowed from the stone path where he fell. The spiritual energy of heaven and earth contained abundant fire energy.
As soon as a trace of flame energy poured into this place, it was absorbed by the blood core in the Flame Dragon Armor, accumulating power for the blood core.
He couldn't see it, but he could guess that the drop of blood in the blood core must be growing stronger!
After only a short while, at the top of this huge cave entrance, there was a rich spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and the hard stone walls began to slowly heat up.
The flame breath contained in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was absorbed by the blood core in the Flame Dragon Armor, but there was more energy of heaven and earth scattered in the stone path, condensing into clusters of milky white clouds.
Nie Tian was stunned for a long time, and immediately felt that every breath of air he breathed made him feel relaxed and happy, making his whole body feel comfortable.
He subconsciously sat down quietly and naturally started to use the Qi Refining Technique. As soon as he practiced it, he felt that the spiritual sea also made huge waves, becoming violent and chaotic.
His expression suddenly changed, "The too abundant spiritual power seems to be pushing me, allowing me to forcefully break through the bottleneck of entering the Houtian realm!"
The extremely rich spiritual power, the flame magnetic field formed by the Earth Flame Beast, the changes in the Flame Dragon Armor, as well as the special environment, Nie Tian's state of mind, and various factors mixed together actually caused changes in Nie Tian's spiritual sea.
His spiritual sea seemed to be twisted by a strange magnetic field and could no longer be calm!
Just like his state of mind at this time!
He immediately understood that the bottleneck of cultivation that had troubled him for a long time had been triggered by the strange situation and environment, and had reached a strange state where he could not make a breakthrough without breaking through.
His years of practice in the Qi Refining Realm and the accumulation of spiritual power are like a volcano continuously accumulating the power of fire.
When it reaches a certain level and encounters an opportunity, the volcano must erupt.
If the volcano does not erupt, it will explode underground and completely release its turbulent power.
If his Qi Refining Realm does not break through at this moment, his body and his violent spiritual sea may also be destroyed and exploded!
After realizing this, Nie Tianming knew that this was not a good time and he couldn't care less.
He forced himself to calm down, ignoring the increasingly hot stone path, the changes in the Flame Dragon Armor, and the existence of the Earth Flame Beast underneath, and immediately went all out to attack the bottleneck of cultivation.
Also at this moment.
On the wall of the short mountain, at the entrance of the cave where he left, An Shiyi and others were waiting anxiously, all looking surprised.
"Do you feel it?" An Shiyi asked.
Everyone who stopped practicing nodded, and Pan Tao said: "The spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the Scarlet Flame Mountains seems to be... gathering in large quantities toward us."
"The aura of heaven and earth contains a rich aura of fire." An Shiyi practices the flame spirit art, and her senses are more sensitive. "We all know that our Lingbao Pavilion chose the Chiyan Mountains as the gate. On the one hand, Because the aura here is rich, and on the other hand, it’s because the aura contains the aura of fire.”
"But the spiritual energy of heaven and earth generally does not undergo such astonishing changes, and it is unlikely that there will be such weird signs of flow."
"But now, I feel that the flame breath of the entire Red Flame Mountain Range is mixed with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and is rushing towards us!"
While they were talking, they all gradually discovered that the stones under their buttocks were all getting hot.
If they walked out of the cave at this time, they would find that the low mountain they were on seemed to be gradually smeared with red, and it became redder and hotter.
Following An Shiyi's reminder, Pan Tao felt it carefully for a while, then said with a strange expression: "Nie Tian, where did you go?"
"It couldn't be Nie Tian who caused the change here, right?" An Ying whispered.
"Impossible!" Pan Tao shook his head, "What state is he? He is far from reaching the state that echoes the spiritual energy of heaven and earth! If he is only in the Qi Refining state, he can cause great changes in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Then Elder Fang Hui , His master Wu Ji, isn’t this life a joke? Hasn’t all the training for so long been in vain?”
"You guys stay here, I'll go check it out underground!" An Shiyi stood up worriedly.
She practices the Flame Spirit Art and is at the highest level among everyone. If someone really needs to be sent over to figure out the situation, it can only be her.
"Sister, be careful!" An Ying was worried, "I don't know why, but my right eyelid keeps twitching. I always feel like something big is going to happen."
"I also feel that my energy and blood are not flowing smoothly, and it feels like a stone is being pressed on my chest. I always feel that something is wrong." Jiang Lingzhu also said.
"You guys should also be careful. I'm going to see what Nie Tian is doing and urge him to leave as soon as possible!" After saying these words, An Shiyi went deep into the dark stone passage, trying to find Nie Tian.
