"Oh, it seems that I really underestimated these two guys."
A burst of joking laughter came from the black mist, "Being able to kill the Three Disaster Ancient Trees, the Immortal Bone Dragon, and the Oriole Lord, his strength cannot be underestimated."
"But just because you want to challenge me is too naive."
"Mountain God, you are at the border of the atrium, waiting for their arrival."
"When they defeat the lava statues and come to challenge me, you will act according to the plan."
"After these two guys are killed, I will fulfill my promise and let you succeed the four guardians and become the true mountain god of the ancient forbidden land."
"Yes!"
The mountain god smiled flatteringly and nodded, then turned and left, drifting out of the temple.
Looking at the erupting volcano in the distance to the north, the mountain god squinted his eyes slightly, with a trace of ruthlessness in his eyes.
"Brother, I'm sorry."
"If you were not prepared to challenge the mountain god and just went home, we could have peacefully coexisted."
"But since you are stubborn and insist on making an enemy of the Holy King, then as a member of the Ancient Forbidden Land, I have no choice but to help the Holy King annihilate you."
……
On the other side, Ye Qing and Bai Xianer had arrived at the volcano area in Beiting.
After officially arriving in the North Courtyard, every ray of air was filled with hot and fiery breath, making it difficult to move.
Ye Qing moved his thoughts and summoned a protective shield to cover the two of them before continuing to move forward.
This protective shield is entirely composed of the fire of the God General.
As the most powerful flame in the world, the God General's Fire can basically completely block the temperature of the Beiting Demon Fire.
Moreover, the stone monsters around him originally intended to attack Ye Qing, but they were blocked by the fire of the God General and were unable to catch up.
Under the protection of the Divine General's Fire, Ye Qing and Bai Xian'er were able to reach the deepest part of the North Courtyard without any obstruction.
At the deepest point is a tall volcano, towering into the clouds and filled with demonic energy.
Scarlet lava seeped out of the crater, and the color looked like blood, making people shudder.
Ye Qing checked the contents of the jade slip and murmured, "It seems that this is the lava volcano we are looking for."
"The lava stone statue of the Guardian of the North Garden is hidden inside the lava volcano."
"If you want to force the lava statues to appear, you must attack the lava volcano with all your strength, and various stone monsters will spew out from the crater."
"After dozens of eruptions, there is a certain probability that lava stone statues will appear."
Bai Xian'er was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and said worriedly, "So... isn't it very difficult to kill the lava stone statue?"
"After all, these monsters in the lava volcano are all stubborn rocks with strange attachments. They are not only powerful, but also have amazing defense."
"We have to get rid of at least dozens of stubborn rocks before we have a chance to fight the lava statues."
"At that time, we had already consumed a lot of spiritual energy. How could we defeat the lava stone statue?"
"There's nothing we can do about it."
Ye Qing narrowed his eyes and said solemnly, "If this is the only way to defeat the lava statue, we have no other choice."
"After all... no matter how difficult this method is, it is still much easier than when we dealt with Lord Tianli before, isn't it?"
Seeing that Ye Qing was so optimistic and free-spirited, he didn't take the difficulties in front of him to heart at all.
Bai Xian'er looked solemn and said, "Benefactor, I have an idea!" "Oh?"
Ye Qing raised his eyebrows and asked with interest, "What can I do?"
I saw a white light appear in Bai Xian'er's palm, summoning a magic weapon and placing it on the ground.
This is a large cauldron made of steel. The whole body is filled with rich white light. The cauldron is engraved with dense lines, exuding a long and ancient powerful immortal power.
Ye Qing asked, "Miss Xian'er, what is this?"
Bai Xian'er explained, "This is one of the oldest treasures in our fairy world, called the Demon Refining Cauldron. Monsters can be thrown into the cauldron for refining and purification."
"Back then, my father used the Demon Refining Cauldron to kill many demons who were captured alive but could not be killed, and they were helpless."
"Even demons can be refined. The demons in this lava volcano will definitely not be able to resist the power of the demon refining cauldron!"
"Okay!"
Ye Qing nodded, grinned and said, "In that case, let's work together."
"I will guard the crater. As long as there are monsters erupting from it, I will throw them down."
"Just use the magic refining cauldron below, and every monster in this volcano will be refined!"
Immediately, Ye Qing jumped up, flew forward, summoned the fairy sword Jingyun in his hand, poured his spiritual power into it, and blasted out a sharp sword light.
The sword light hit the surface of the lava volcano, and there was no sound for an instant like a mud cow entering the sea, without causing any waves.
However, the next second, the lava volcano in front of him and the ground under his feet suddenly began to tremble slightly without warning.
It was as if a giant creature that had lived in the world for countless years was finally awakened from its deep sleep and stretched out for a long time.
The lines on the lava volcano burst out with dazzling red light, and the strong evil spirit made people tremble.
The next second, a fierce flame spewed out from the crater and shot straight into the sky.
This flame bloomed in mid-air and turned into flying fireballs and fell from the sky. It instantly dispelled the darkness in the sky and made the world between heaven and earth seem like daylight.
Ye Qing summoned the Divine General's Fire Protector to isolate the blazing heat of these flames.
He stared intently at the crater in front of him, vowing not to let a fish slip through the net.
After about half a minute, more than a dozen fire pillars were sprayed out in succession, and the first monster finally appeared.
The stone monster in this lava volcano was larger than Ye Qing imagined.
This monster is like a calf, its shape is twisted and twisted, its body is covered with sharp spikes, and it looks extremely penetrating.
There are more than a dozen eyeballs in the two eye sockets, all of them are staring at Ye Qing, showing the spikes on his body, intending to directly smash Ye Qing into meat patties and tie them into a sieve.
"Ugly monster, get out of here!"
A smile appeared on Ye Qing's lips, and he waved his hand without haste, grabbing the two largest spikes on both sides of the monster with both hands.
These stone monsters are all burning with flames mixed with evil spirits. As long as ordinary people touch them, their hands will be burned off.
But at this moment, Ye Qing used the fire of the God General to protect his entire body.
He grasped the sharp spikes of the stone demon, taking his time and not contaminating himself. Instead, he directly absorbed part of the evil spirit on the opponent's body, making the stone demon unable to resist at all.
Ye Qing glanced down from the corner of his eye. Bai Xian'er had already set up the magic cauldron and was waiting. A smile suddenly appeared on his lips.
"Let's go!" (End of Chapter)
