Chapter 178 Skeletons
As the camouflage skill was used, Xiao Ling's figure became looming in the magma. He seemed to have become a part of the magma world, and even the most acute perception could hardly capture his presence.
His movements became extremely gentle, as if he was afraid of disturbing this ancient and mysterious space.
Xiao Ling's body slowly sank into the magma. As he dived, the pressure around him gradually increased, but to him, it was nothing.
His body seemed to have merged with the magma, and the surrounding heat had no effect on him at all.
As he dived deeper, a solemn look flashed across Xiao Ling's eyes.
Next, you must be careful to avoid unnecessary trouble.
Suddenly, there was an unusual fluctuation in the magma ahead. Xiao Ling's heart tightened, and he felt a strong breath approaching.
He stopped and quietly observed the magma in front of him, trying to capture the source of the breath.
At this moment, a fiery red figure slowly emerged from the magma and entered Xiao Ling's soul perception range.
Xiao Ling recognized almost immediately that the fiery red figure in front of him was the Fire Lizardman described in the original book.
Although its shape seemed blurry in the fluctuations of the magma, Xiao Ling could still feel its powerful force.
Judging from the aura he felt, the strength of this fire lizardman was definitely not inferior to the Qianbaier elders he had met in the library before.
The body of the fire lizardman was larger than that of an ordinary human, and there was a gleam of wisdom in his eyes.
A trace of vigilance flashed in Xiao Ling's eyes. He knew that there were countless creatures like this in the magma world. In order to avoid trouble, he must not provoke them.
He took a deep breath, circulated the fighting spirit in his body, suppressed his breath to the lowest level, and at the same time used camouflage skills to try to make himself as transparent as possible in the magma.
His movements became gentler, like a fallen leaf, swaying gently with the waves of magma.
In this blazing magma, Xiao Ling's camouflage skills were brought to the extreme, and his existence seemed to be swallowed up by this fiery world.
Xiao Ling carefully avoided the sight of the Fire Lizardman, like a hunter hidden in the undercurrent, quietly observing every move of the fiery red figure.
If that guy discovered his existence, Xiao Ling would quickly leave this magma world.
After all, no matter how important the Fallen Heart Flame is, it cannot be compared with one's own life.
However, the Fire Lizardman did not seem to notice anything unusual. It cruised around for a while, as if looking for something, but ultimately found no clues, so it slowly turned around and left.
Watching the fire lizardman gradually disappear into the distance, Xiao Ling breathed a sigh of relief, and the tension in his heart eased a little.
As the Fire Lizardman left, Xiao Ling activated his camouflage skill again, and his figure became blurred again in the lava.
He took a deep breath, adjusted his state, and then continued to move towards the depths of the magma. The temperature of the magma was constantly rising, and the pressure was also constantly increasing, but for Xiao Ling, who had already broken through to the Dou Zong level, these were no longer obstacles.
Speeding up the flow of Dou Qi in the body allows the existing protective shield to receive a stronger supply of Dou Qi, thereby increasing its toughness and successfully isolating all the heat and pressure outside.
As time went by, Xiao Ling gradually went deeper into the magma. He encountered groups of fire lizardmen, including some Douhuang and Douzong level warriors.
Their power is great, but their soul perception is indeed somewhat weak. Xiao Ling successfully avoids their attention with his camouflage skills and powerful soul perception.
Having dodged another round of inspection by a group of fire lizardmen, Xiao Ling breathed a sigh of relief. He couldn't help but feel a little self-deprecating, and murmured in his heart:
"It seems that the noise we made just now was too loud and alarmed these fire lizardmen..."
After avoiding the Fire Lizardman, Xiao Ling followed the guidance of the Fallen Heart Flame and continued to dive.
Just when Xiao Ling dived to a certain depth, he suddenly felt a strong wave coming from below.
The rapidly flying Fallen Heart Flame in front of him suddenly slowed down.
Looking at this scene, Xiao Ling's spirits suddenly lifted. He became more cautious in his heart and looked around carefully.
Although he had already guessed in his mind that the Fallen Heart Flame had slowed down and might have reached its destination, it was necessary to always pay attention to safety in this dangerous underground magma world.
This is still a red world, and it does not seem to be the end of this magma sea, because under Xiao Ling's feet is still that dark red magma. Looking closely, there is a hint of heart-pounding darkness, making people never know what is at the end of this underground?
Just as Xiao Ling was wondering, the Fallen Heart Flame in front of him suddenly rose slowly, and then a faint flame poured down from it, shining like a lamppost on a patch of magma not far below.
Soon, a magical scene appeared. The magma began to slowly wriggle, and then a transparent halo emitting a faint light emerged from the magma vortex.
This fluctuation is different from the heat of magma, but a deeper and more mysterious force.
Seeing this scene, Xiao Ling's heartstrings trembled slightly, and he whispered in his heart: "Could this be the small space that the Skyfire Venerable opened up with his own hands before his death?"
Thinking of this, Xiao Ling's emotions boiled up uncontrollably, and his heart beat faster involuntarily.
Xiao Ling's eyes were fixed on the front, and following the guidance of the Fallen Heart Flame, he slowly approached the source of the fluctuation.
As the distance got closer, the Fallen Heart Flame in front of Xiao Ling reacted more violently, which made Xiao Ling more certain of his previous guess.
He knew that this might be the key to his journey. The soul body of Skyfire Lord, the larval body's Fallen Heart Flame, and the Earth-level high-level fighting skill "Five Wheels Fire Separation Technique" were all great opportunities in the outside world.
As long as this operation can be completed successfully, these precious treasures, without exception, will all be taken by Xiao Ling.
Finally, Xiao Ling arrived in front of a huge magma vortex. In the vortex, a transparent light circle slowly emerged, and inside the light circle, a skeleton emitting a faint fluorescence was quietly suspended.
Above the skeleton, a ball of transparent flame was burning quietly. Xiao Ling recognized at a glance that the flame was the Fallen Heart Flame. However, compared with the Fallen Heart Flame he had refined, it was still relatively weak.
