Chapter 181: The Attack of the Flame Lizardmen
Venerable Skyfire witnessed Xiao Ling putting away the strange fire, and then his figure flashed and turned into a stream of light and drilled into the snow-white storage ring.
Xiao Ling waved his hand lightly, and the ring slowly floated to his side, and was immediately put on his finger.
At this moment, a faint wave spread out from the ring, the surrounding magma waves were solidified by the power of space, and the light shield slowly cracked.
When he was about to leave this space, Xiao Ling turned around and glanced at the skeleton lying in the center of the space.
Then he said to the Skyfire Venerable in the ring: "Senior, can I take your skeleton away?"
Venerable Skyfire was slightly stunned, then asked: "What is the use of this skeleton?"
Hearing the question from Skyfire Venerable, Xiao Ling replied in a calm voice:
"Senior, this skeleton is crucial for refining a new body. Using your original remains as a foundation, the new body will be highly compatible with your soul, which will undoubtedly greatly increase the success rate of refining."
Skyfire Venerable was silent for a moment, as if thinking about Xiao Ling's words, then he slowly nodded to show his understanding: "I understand, then I will do as you say and use the bones to refine a new body."
Seeing this, Xiao Ling felt a little relieved, and then he acted quickly to put the skeleton of Skyfire Lord into his ring.
Seeing Xiao Ling taking the skeleton away, the Skyfire Master in the ring said to Xiao Ling:
"The fire lizardmen in this magma are a big trouble. In order to avoid unnecessary conflicts, we should leave here quickly."
Xiao Ling nodded, and the moment the light shield cracked, he stepped on the ground, and his body turned into a white shadow, and he left this dangerous magma land as fast as lightning.
The force of space spread from the ring, solidifying all the surrounding magma fluctuations and ensuring their safe evacuation.
Touching his chin, Xiao Ling said to himself:
"I don't know why Xiao Yan didn't take away the skeleton of Skyfire Venerable in the original novel. If not, there would be no need to use Yunshan's body, which was only at the initial stage of Dou Zong, to refine a new body for Skyfire Venerable."
Although he had some doubts in his mind, he did not think too much about it. He moved without slowing down at all and quickly left the space.
……
"Pfft!"
On this silent sea of magma, there is neither the caress of wind nor the rippling of waves. The occasional sound of bubbles bursting is the only subtle noise that breaks the silence.
Suddenly, an abrupt sound of breaking water tore through the silence, and a figure suddenly rushed out from the depths of the magma, surrounded by invisible flames, as if it was an evil spirit that had escaped from the sea of hellfire, and finally froze in mid-air.
That figure was Xiao Ling. His eyes were firm as he looked around to make sure that he had safely escaped from the dangerous lava area.
He took a deep breath, feeling the subtle changes in the surrounding environment, and the tension in his heart gradually dissipated.
However, thinking back to the thrilling scenes just now, Xiao Ling couldn't help but feel a little scared.
When leaving the space created by the Skyfire Master, Xiao Ling encountered a group of fire lizardmen who had been waiting for a long time.
They seemed to have anticipated his arrival and were lying in ambush outside the space, waiting for the people in that space to show up. Among the group of fire lizardmen, the two leading lizardmen were very powerful and had reached the realm of Dou Zun.
As for the other fire lizardmen who followed closely behind, although their strength was slightly lower than that of the leader, each of them was also a master at the Douhuang or Douzong level.
Such a combination of strength is enough to make any force feel fearful, even in Zhongzhou where there are so many strong people. It is comparable to the Sifang Pavilion, and may even be more powerful.
Fortunately, Xiao Ling's soul power was greatly improved after swallowing the Fallen Heart Flame, and his soul realm broke through to the middle stage of the spiritual realm in one fell swoop.
Relying on this powerful soul force, Xiao Ling used the Dream Shadow on the two Fire Lizardmen who had reached the Dou Zun level.
Although the two Dou Zun-level fire lizardmen were much stronger than Xiao Ling, their soul power seemed not strong enough.
Even though Xiao Ling used Dream Shadow on these two powerful enemies at the same time, he still cleverly brought them under his control before they launched their attacks.
Xiao Ling still clearly remembered that the two originally extremely ferocious fire lizardmen became like lost insects under the confusion of the dream shadow and could not pose any threat to him.
After controlling these two Dou Zun-level lizardmen, Xiao Ling took advantage of the chaos and killed several Dou Zong-level fire lizardmen.
While the two Dou Zun-level Fire Lizardmen had not yet awakened from the fog of the dream shadow, Xiao Ling had already evacuated the scene quickly like an arrow from a bow.
He tried his best to restrain his breath, and moved silently like a ghost, quickly moving away from the dangerous magma world.
At this time, the figure of Lord Skyfire slowly floated out from the snow-white storage ring. His figure was illusory, but carried an indescribable majesty.
His gaze fell on Xiao Ling, and a hint of admiration flashed in his eyes, as if he was looking at Xiao Ling as a monster.
"Good boy, I didn't expect you to be so powerful." Skyfire Venerable's voice was filled with obvious surprise.
"Although I had high hopes for you before, I really underestimated you. Escaping from the hands of those fire lizardmen was not an easy task even in my prime. It required a considerable price to pay."
Xiao Ling smiled slightly and responded modestly: "Senior, you are too kind. I was lucky to escape this time. I just have a slight advantage in soul power. If it were just based on my cultivation, I would have been killed by those fire lizardmen in the magma land."
Skyfire Venerable shook his head and said sternly, "Soul power is also your own power, which cannot be ignored. I didn't expect that you are so young, but your soul power is so strong. I have lived for most of my life, and I have never seen anyone of the same age whose soul power exceeds yours. Your potential is far beyond my imagination."
After saying this, Skyfire Venerable laughed at himself and continued, "Back then, when I was your age, I was just a Douling. If I hadn't subdued the Fallen Heart Flame later, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to break through to the Douzun realm."
After hearing the praise from Lord Skyfire, Xiao Ling just smiled faintly, as if he was already accustomed to such praise.
I, Xiao Ling, have achieved what I have today entirely due to my own efforts. Of course, those 'small' external helpers are also indispensable.
Well, these plug-ins, such as the mysterious ones obtained occasionally, or the strange fire swallowed inadvertently, or... However, these "plug-ins" are actually the result of my own efforts.
