With Yang Qi's guarantee, Feng Yan offered a reward that was irresistible. Even though they knew it was quite dangerous, Yang Qi and the other two still accepted Feng Yan's invitation.
The Red Flame Snake is the overlord of this area and the only martial arts master monster. The Fire Rock Ridge where it is located is extremely familiar to the practitioners who come to this area.
Fire Rock Ridge is about a thousand miles away from Blood Maple Valley. With the speed of Yang Qi and his three companions, they arrived outside Fire Rock Ridge in about an incense stick of time. Because it is close to the territory of the Red Flame Snake, under the powerful deterrent power of the Red Flame Snake, no other monsters dare to approach here.
"That's the Volcanic Rock Ridge. It's just as the rumors say. The entire Volcanic Rock Ridge has few plants and is covered with volcanic rocks. From a distance, it looks like a burning flame." Looking at the mountains in the distance, Yang Qi sighed.
The flaming mountain in the distance was Huoyan Ridge. It was a very famous place in the surrounding area because it was very dangerous and was inhabited by martial arts masters. In addition, the red flame snake was good at traveling underground. If it hid underground and did not come out, even an ordinary mid-level martial arts master would be helpless.
“It is said that there is a hot lava flow under the Huoyan Ridge. The entire Huoyan Ridge is like a furnace. It is easier to practice and comprehend the way of fire here.” Yun Lan pondered.
It is precisely because of the underground rock flow that the temperature of Huoyan Ridge is extremely high. If ordinary people get close to Huoyan Ridge, they will feel uncomfortable. However, for practitioners of the Fire Path, this place is a rare holy place for cultivation. Practicing here will achieve twice the result with half the effort. Even the effect of comprehending the artistic conception of fire will be greatly improved.
This is also the reason why the Red Flame Snake chose to practice here. The Red Flame Snake itself is a fire-attributed monster that can devour underground rock flows to practice. For the Red Flame Snake, such a place is a rare place for practice.
"It's really uncomfortable here. Although Wu Zong can withstand the heat flow, the temperature nearby is obviously much higher." Liu Fei frowned slightly. Although they have not arrived at Huoyan Ridge yet, the temperature around them is obviously higher than other places. On Huoyan Ridge, this situation will probably be even worse.
"There is a phoenix feather in the Fire Rock Ridge. The phoenix represents the way of fire. Even if it is just a phoenix feather, the power of the way of fire contained in it is incomparably terrifying." Feng Yan glanced at the Fire Rock Ridge and continued, "But the fire feather has long been separated from the phoenix. I don't know how many years have passed. The power of the phoenix feather has long dissipated. Otherwise, the red flame snake would not dare to occupy the phoenix feather, and I would not dare to seek the phoenix feather."
Yang Qi nodded slightly. After having experienced what happened in the Red Dragon Cave, he knew very well that even if a powerful being died, the flesh, blood, bones and skin left behind contained the power they had in their lifetime. Perhaps only one thousandth of that power was left, but it was enough to kill some greedy practitioners.
"Everything goes according to plan. We will hide at Huoyan Ridge. I will lure the Red Flame Snake away, and you will take the opportunity to enter the lair of Huoyan Ridge. I have checked and found that there are three Red Flame Snakes in the lair. However, the strength of these three Red Flame Snakes is only at the level of 7-8 star martial arts master. With your strength, you can handle them." Feng Yan looked at Yang Qi and the other two with a serious expression, and continued, "If you want to get the Phoenix Feather, you must grab it with your Yuanli, and you must not touch it directly with your hands. Otherwise, even a practitioner of the body refining flow will not be able to resist the flames of the Phoenix Feather."
"We are not so stupid as to grab it with our hands." Liu Fei curled her lips.
Generally speaking, practitioners will not rashly touch dangerous things with their bodies. Instead, they will directly activate their Yuanli and grab them with the Yuanli. This is the most complete way to do it.
"In that case, let's go."
Seeing this, Feng Yan said no more. She flashed and rushed towards Huoyan Ridge. Yang Qi and the other two beside her also followed quickly.
"Yang Qi, can she be trusted?" Yun Lan's message came through Yang Qi's messaging talisman. Because they were too close to each other, Yun Lan didn't dare to communicate privately, fearing that Feng Yan would notice. Using the messaging talisman only required communicating with the mind, so there was no such concern.
"It should be fine. When I was working with her before, I was seriously injured and passed out. If she hadn't rescued me, I would have died long ago." Yang Qi transmitted the message.
In addition to the generous reward, Yang Qi also wanted to repay Feng Yan for saving him last time. After all, Feng Yan could have ignored him at that time, and she didn't have to compensate him for the puppet he lost afterwards. In addition, he had a good impression of Feng Yan after their contact, and they were both strangers from other cultivation worlds, which was another reason why Yang Qi accepted the invitation.
"No matter what, we still have to be careful. If things become impossible, evacuate immediately. Don't take any risks." Yun Lan suddenly felt annoyed when she saw Yang Qi's evaluation of Feng Yan.
After receiving Yun Lan's message, Yang Qi and Liu Fei looked at each other and nodded slightly. The key to this operation was whether Feng Yan could hold back the Red Flame Snake. If she couldn't hold back the Red Flame Snake, they would not be able to risk entering the Red Flame Snake's lair.
Whoosh~ Whoosh~
Four figures flew through the mountains and forests, and soon arrived at the range of Volcano Ridge. The atmosphere around them became hotter, and even the air became a little distorted.
"This is just the foot of Huoyan Ridge. The air temperature is probably about 40 degrees, right?" Feeling the hot air around him, Yang Qi frowned slightly. It's just the foot of the mountain, but the temperature is so high? Normal people can't stay here for long, even practitioners will feel uncomfortable.
Fortunately, Yang Qi and the other three were all high-level martial artists, so they could completely ignore this temperature. However, as they continued to go deeper into the Flame Ridge, the temperature around them gradually increased. The rocks that covered the mountains were like charcoal and could be used directly to grill meat.
Huoyan Ridge is the territory of the Red Flame Snake. Normally, very few practitioners come here. Under the leadership of Feng Yan, Yang Qi and the other two went deep into the mountain and stopped only when they reached the mountainside.
"The lair of the Red Flame Snake is just ahead. I will lure the Red Flame Snake away later. After it leaves, you should sneak into the lair immediately. Try not to be discovered before you meet the guards." Feng Yan looked at Yang Qi and the other two, with a solemn look on her face.
"We know what to do." Yang Qi nodded slightly.
Whoosh~
Hearing this, Feng Yan said no more. She flashed and headed straight for the Volcano Ridge. In the blink of an eye, she disappeared among the huge volcanoes.
“Roar~”
A moment later, a deafening roar was heard from the distant mountains. Even though they were hundreds of feet away, Yang Qi and the others could feel a strong heat wave coming.
"Damn you cultivator, you come to disturb my rest again!" An angry roar was heard, and then the fire rocks in the distance exploded, accompanied by a terrifying loud noise, and two powerful auras rushed into the sky. (To be continued)
