Celestial being

"Wait a moment for me to investigate." Yuan Ming said and sat down cross-legged.

He closed his eyes slightly and urged the roots of the Dantian Immortal Tree to go deep into the ground, and soon penetrated into an underground spiritual vein.

The next moment, Yuan Ming felt that the fire-attribute spiritual power in the underground spiritual veins here was nearly half stronger than that in Huojian Mountain outside.

The immortal tree instinctively began to greedily absorb the spiritual energy from the ground.

Yuan Ming did not let the Immortal Tree do anything, and controlled the root system to quickly explore the flow of underground spiritual veins.

Soon, he discovered the flow of spiritual power in this underground spiritual vein.

"We have a direction, go over there." Yuan Ming stood up and pointed in a direction.

Wu Lu was overjoyed when he heard this, and the two of them immediately flew away in that direction.

The flow path of the earth veins was winding and tortuous, but the general direction was correct. The two of them escaped for more than a hundred miles before landing again.

Yuan Ming asked Ulu to rest for a while while he repeated the previous operation. After further confirming the flow direction of the underground fire veins, the two set off again.

After repeating this twice, the spiritual vein they explored reached its end and merged into another larger spiritual vein.

Yuan Ming controlled the immortal tree, explored the flow of spiritual power in this larger spiritual vein, and continued on his way.

As time passed, the area the two of them crossed became wider and wider. The landscape below changed from the unchanging Gobi Desert to undulating hills, and then to mountains with obvious traces of wind erosion.

In the vast wilderness, dark red low mountains rising tens of feet or even more than a hundred feet high rise from the ground. Under the erosion of the wind, some of them turned into round round towers, and some turned into heads and feet wide. Narrow mushrooms, and some have a wind tunnel in the middle.

Yuan Ming secretly sighed at the vastness of this space, which was far better than Shura Palace.

To open up such a large space and shape the underground spiritual veins to be almost the same as the outside world, how many void crystals and how many heavenly materials and earthly treasures need to be used.

Just when Yuan Ming was sighing, a fire suddenly flashed above a tower-shaped mountain on the ground, and balls of magma and fireballs were shot out, heading straight for the two of them.

Upon seeing this, Wulu raised his hand and waved, and a huge blood-colored wind pillar appeared out of thin air, protecting the two of them.

This blood-colored wind pillar is the whirlwind magical power sealed in the blood soul magic crystal, and it has been completely controlled by Ulu.

There were several loud "boom boom" sounds.

The moment the whirlwind collided with the magma, a huge explosion broke out.

These magma fireballs suddenly exploded, turning into countless magma fire rains that exploded in all directions, tearing apart the blood-colored whirlwind. The dense magma fire rain continued to hit Yuan Ming and the two of them, covering them inside.

Yuan Ming raised his hand to hold up a green light shield, blocking the rain of magma and fire.

Unexpectedly, the magma actually had a strong corrosive effect. As soon as it landed on the light mask, it immediately made a hissing sound and instantly corroded and penetrated the green light mask.

The two of them had no choice but to retreat back to avoid the more subtle and denser sparks.

They landed on a mushroom-shaped low mountain and looked warily towards the tower-shaped peak.

"What is that?" Ulu asked in surprise.

"It's a fire beast." Yuan Ming said, looking forward.

Ulu followed his line of sight and saw a dozen strange-looking beasts emerging from the shadow of the tower-shaped mountain.

They are comparable in size to calves and look like a praying mantis. Every part of their body seems to be covered with a layer of carapace. Their entire body is gray-white in color, except for a pair of compound eyes that are extremely red.

Those fire mantis-like beasts bent their legs and landed near the Mushroom Dwarf Mountain with their afterimages, surrounding Yuan Ming and the two in the center.

Yuan Ming's heart moved slightly as he glanced around.

The auras of these dozen fire beasts are very powerful, all of them are above level five, which is far from comparable to the fire beasts in the Fire Rock Desert.

"These guys are a bit weird, be careful." Yuan Ming reminded.

"Leave these fire beasts to me!" Ulu said in a deep voice.

Since entering the Lingbao space, he has been following Yuan Ming. All troubles are solved by Yuan Ming. It is not his style to get something for nothing.

"Okay, I'll leave that to you. If you need help, call me." Yuan Ming said with a slightly raised brow.

Before Yuan Ming finished speaking, the two fire mantises on the left had already taken the lead in attacking.

A ball of crimson fire lit up from its abdomen and suddenly climbed towards its chest and reached its throat. The fire mantis suddenly opened its mouth, and two extremely hot magma fireballs spurted out.

Having learned from the past, neither Yuan Ming nor Yuan Ming made any move to block him, but instead dodged to the left and right in a tacit understanding.

As soon as they moved, several fire mantises nearby jumped up to meet them, waving their two sickle-like forelimbs towards the two of them.

Yuan Ming was extremely fast, flashing past and jumping to another low mountain.

Ulu flipped his wrist and took out a long black knife, and slashed at the fastest fire mantis.

The blade collided with the sickle, and a string of sparks burst out. No one could suppress the other, and they were stalemate there. Other mantis fire beasts also arrived nearby.

Uru was about to summon the bloody whirlwind again, when the mantis sickle he was wrestling with suddenly glowed with a dazzling red light, and then suddenly exploded without warning.

A ball of scorching flames swept across and engulfed Ulu's body, and the red flames were mixed with bits of gold.

Ulu didn't expect this situation at all. He was completely blown away. The arm holding the knife was dripping with blood. There was also an abnormally hot fire along the blade and directly passed into the palm of his hand.

The severe burning pain made him almost unable to hold the knife.

However, Ulu also used his strength to jump out of the encirclement and immediately activated the Sky-Escape Stone Talisman.

His figure immediately disappeared and disappeared.

The several fire mantises that were hunting him suddenly lost their target. After a moment of hesitation, they turned to look at Yuan Ming.

But the moment they turned around, Ulu's figure suddenly appeared behind a fire mantis, and the long black knife in his hand slashed at the head of the fire mantis.

With a flash of black sword light, Fire Mantis's head fell off, and streams of blood like lava flowed out.

The other fire mantis next to him saw this and turned around quickly. The two sickles turned into two red shadows and struck in front of Ulu in an instant.

Ulu didn't have time to become invisible and hurriedly blocked with his knife. As a result, he saw the eyes of the fire mantis suddenly light up with red light, and two red lights like lines of fire lit up from the mantis's forelimbs at the same time.

The blade of the scythe on the forelimb immediately burned red as if it was about to be tempered, and the surface glowed with dazzling red light again, and it struck the long black knife fiercely.

Two loud bangs!

Two more flames exploded, and Ulu was blown away again, half of his body scorched black.

Sparks flew from the long black knife, causing two gaps to appear.

Wulu's eyes showed surprise. This long black knife looked ordinary, but in fact it was a spiritual treasure that he had put a lot of effort into refining according to ancient methods. He even planned to use it as his own spiritual treasure.

Unexpectedly, the long knife showed signs of damage after only being attacked by the Fire Mantis twice.

These fire beasts are so powerful.

Two fire mantises nearby flew over, and Ulu hurriedly retreated and activated the Sky-Escape Stone Talisman again, disappearing.

When he appeared again, he had already arrived at Yuan Ming's side.

"These guys are really weird and difficult to deal with." Ulu glanced at the long knife in his hand with some distress and sighed.

"Look over there." Yuan Ming did not agree and raised his hand to point to the side.

Ulu looked around and saw that the Fire Mantis, whose head had been decapitated by him before, was still standing on the spot without falling. The head that fell to the ground had two compound eyes staring straight at him.

"You're not even dead?" Ulu said in disbelief.

"These fire beasts look similar to ordinary monsters, but their body structures are very different. The head, dantian and other places are no longer critical and cannot be measured by common sense." Yuan Ming said.

"No wonder, these fire beasts should be left to Brother Yuan." Wulu said with a wry smile.

Yuan Ming nodded, jumped down the short mountain, and landed in the middle of several mantis fire beasts.

When Wulu saw this scene, he felt quite unhappy. He fought against these fire beasts and tried every means to prevent himself from being surrounded. Yuan Ming actually landed in the middle of the fire beasts.

The gap between him and Yuan Ming seemed to be wider than expected.

Just when Ulu was thinking wildly, more than a dozen fire mantises rushed over.

Yuan Ming twisted his wrist, and a black fire stick appeared in his palm, but it was the Yanhuang Ruyi Stick.

A red shadow flashed beside him, and a tall fire mantis swooped in first, raised its two forelimbs high, and aimed a sharp knife at his head.

Yuan Ming dwarfed to avoid the slashing attack of the Fire Mantis, and hit the Fire Mantis' head with the Flame Emperor Ruyi Stick in his hand.

There was only a muffled sound of "bang", and the head of the fire mantis exploded like a watermelon, sputtering out a piece of red magma.

However, the head is not the Fire Mantis's key point at all. The beast's body stumbled and then stabilized, and the two mantis knives continued to slash at Yuan Ming.

Yuan Ming dodged again in a flash, and the Flame Emperor Ruyi Stick in his hand turned into a black shadow and shot out, following the wound on Fire Mantis' neck and sinking into his chest.

The red spiritual pattern on the Yanhuang Ruyi Stick suddenly lit up, and a strange wave emerged from it.

The next moment, the fire attribute spiritual power in the Fire Mantis poured out uncontrollably, and was sucked away by the Yanhuang Ruyi Rod.

Fire Mantis seemed to have been drained of all its strength at once, and its figure quickly withered and collapsed to the ground.

Yuan Ming dodged the attack of another fire mantis and raised his hand to move.

The Flame Emperor's Ruyi Stick pierced the Fire Mantis' skin and flew back into his hand.

The originally warm body of the stick became hot at this moment, and there was still a wisp of golden spiritual power condensed on it, which was clearly the pure power of the sun.

"I saw it right just now. These fire mantises contain the power of the sun. No wonder they are so powerful." Yuan Ming thought to himself, using his power to absorb them into his body.

His physical body has been in a state of hunger and thirst. As soon as the power of the sun entered the body, it was quickly absorbed by his physical body, and a warm feeling suddenly spread throughout his body, which was extremely comfortable.

After this experience, when Yuan Ming looked at the fire mantises again, there was only joy in his eyes, as if he was looking at the plates of delicacies ready to be served to the table.

All this sounds complicated, but in fact it can be completed in the blink of an eye.

Other fire mantises swooped in from all directions, swinging their mantis knives rapidly at a speed invisible to the naked eye.

Dozens of red knife shadows slashed at Yuan Ming, forming a huge knife network. There seemed to be no chance of dodge.

When Wulu saw this in the distance, he looked worried.

He knew that Yuan Ming could use the magical power of Thunder Escape, so he was not afraid of such attacks. However, the fire attribute spiritual power here was extremely rich, and the power of space was also abnormal, so he might not be able to use Thunder Escape.

Yuan Ming turned his fiery eyes and golden eyes, and two golden lights shot out from his eyes.

The dense knife network suddenly became clear, and the attack that was originally a perfect fit was now full of loopholes.

His body turned into a wisp of green smoke, and he jumped out of the knife net with just one movement. He fired the fire stick in his hand, aiming at a nearby fire mantis.

With a puff, the Flame Emperor's Ruyi Stick penetrated the scales of the Fire Mantis and pierced its body.

The fire mantis' body quickly became shriveled up, and its spiritual energy was absorbed in the blink of an eye.

Yuan Ming recalled the Yanhuang Ruyi Stick and rushed to the next end.

Not long after, all the fire mantises were killed by Yuan Ming, and more than a dozen rays of extremely pure power of the sun entered his body, making his physical strength improve a lot.

Ulu watched everything from a distance, the surprised expression on his face getting heavier and heavier.

"How did you do that?" When Yuan Ming returned, Wulu couldn't help but ask.

"It's just relying on the magic weapon." Yuan Ming raised his hand and said with a smile.

Wulu glanced at the Yanhuang Ruyi Stick in Yuan Ming's hand and didn't ask any questions.

The two of them did not stop and continued to move forward, following the direction of the underground fire veins.

On the next road, whenever he encounters a fire beast, Yuan Ming will take the initiative to deal with it.

This is a great tonic!

With Yuan Ming in front, the two of them moved forward significantly faster, and soon found a place where spiritual veins gathered.

It was a lake that looked extremely wide. With Yuan Ming and his two eyesight, they couldn't find the other shore for a while.

What's even more strange is that the water in the lake is actually fiery red, containing very rich fire-attribute spiritual energy. It is as hot as magma, but not so viscous. From time to time, there will be red water in the rippling water. Flames burst out of the water and exploded into a ball of fireworks in mid-air.

Although this is the place where the spiritual veins gather, it is not the center of the spiritual veins in space. Yuan Ming and the others did not stop and flew straight towards the other side of the lake.

When he was about to fly to the center of the fire lake, Yuan Ming suddenly showed surprise on his face and pulled Wulu to stop.

"What's wrong?" Uru asked.

"There is a fight ahead." Yuan Ming said.

After hearing this, Wulu concentrated his attention on the investigation, and soon discovered that there were chaotic spiritual energy fluctuations coming from the front, and it seemed that someone was fighting there.

It's just that the movement was very weak, and he could barely detect it with all his concentration.

Wulu glanced at Yuan Ming and sighed again.

Yuan Ming didn't notice Wulu's thoughts, so he used the round light technique to explore the situation in the distance.

"It's him!" Yuan Ming muttered to himself.

I saw a huge white palace shadow appearing in the round light technique, occupying a corner of the sky.

In the center of the shadow of the palace, a monk in white clothes raised his arms and cast spells. His face was full of anxiety. It was Nan Shangfeng.

Outside the shadow of the palace, six lion-like fire beasts with fierce auras were attacking the palace non-stop.

These fire lions spit out streams of terrifying flames from their mouths, sweeping across the world. They looked particularly terrifying, and their strength was still higher than the fire mantis they encountered before.

However, every time the fire lion's attack falls on the palace shadow, there will be a wave of ripples on the shadow, and then the fire lion's attack will be moved away and hit the void around the palace shadow.

Relying on the magical power of moving space in this way, the palace phantom could barely resist the fire beast's attack. However, the sweat that continued to seep out from Nan Shangfeng's forehead and the gradually unstable mana aura all showed that he was at the end of his strength. .
