Chapter 424: Erupting Lava, Falling into A Sea of Fire!

Yu Lei’s expression changed. It was too late when he wanted to stop Ye Chen, so he called out to him, “What are you doing, Sir Ye?”

“Brother Ye, get back. It’s too dangerous!” Zhizhi lost all her senses in her fear.

“Get back here, you fool. Are you trying to get yourself killed?!” Yu Lian was stomping her feet in a panic.

‘We’re already dying from the heat from standing so far away. Forget that you refuse to leave, but how dare you go down there? What’s the difference compared to seeking death if you do that? Are you crazy or just dumb?’

She wanted to go with Ye Chen to pull him back by instinct. However, Yu Lei grabbed her. “Don’t go!”

Yuan Qitai and his disciple watched Ye Chen who was going down as they stood on a giant rock less than 30 meters away from Yu Lei and the rest. They were stunned. “What’s that guy doing?”

Yuan Qitai especially had disbelief on his face.

One must know that even though he possessed a high cultivation base, he dared not go down because the high temperature would activate his mysterious qi barrier, as well as accelerate his metabolism.

Next to him, Deng Chan exclaimed, “Master, that guy must be out of his mind. Is it worth risking his life for some knick-knacks? Doesn’t he see that even we dare not go there? Why is he so daring?” She thought Ye Chen was going for the antiques in the sinkhole.

At that moment, the ground shook.

Deng Chan staggered and almost fell from the mountain. Her face turned pale when she finally managed to stand still. “What happened?”

Yuan Qitai squinted. He could not help but stare at the sinkhole crater. He seemed to have recalled something, thus his expression changed. “Oh no, there’s going to be an eruption!”

He was a Spell Master who was an expert in consciousness power with a powerful sixth sense. He could sense a cloud of boiling heat erupting beneath although he was far away from it.

He flashed and turned into an after shadow as he thought to this point, arriving before Yu Lian and the rest beneath. The three of them were shocked by the tremor earlier because they thought it was an earthquake.

Yu Lian was secretly cursing Ye Chen.

“There’s going to be an eruption! Here, grab my hands. I’ll bring you guys up there!” Yuan Qitai grabbed onto Yu Lian and Zhizhi with both hands. He waved to summon a strong wind that lifted Yu Lei up.

Yu Lei said as soon as he managed to stand still, “Sir, please save Sir Ye. He’s still down there. Nothing can happen to him.”

“There’s no time!” Yuan Qitai sighed softly, appearing grim.

Bang!

As a loud thud like thunder came, the ground shook even more intensely as if the entire mountain was rocking. Subsequently, a fire pillar shot out of the sinkhole crater. It was approximately ten meters in diameter and 20 meters tall like a fire dragon. It then turned into lava that flowed onto the ground. It was spreading with the crater as the center point. Wherever the lava passed by, everything was destroyed.

The people turned pale because they had experienced the power of nature. Yu Lian and the rest had not taken it seriously when Ye Feng was talking about it earlier. However, they shook as they watched as it happen right before their eyes.

As Banshan’s leader, Yuan Qitai would think that he had a deep knowledge of spells, as well as a certain level of cultivation. However, he seemed weak and helpless before the rumbling lava.

“Look! What’s he doing?” Deng Chan screamed.

The few of them looked to where she was pointing. They saw a skinny silhouette move forward instead of retreating as the eruption was going on. He was walking quickly into the lava.

Who else would that be if not Ye Chen?

Yu Lian’s face turned pale again. “Is he seeking death?”

“Brother Ye!” Zhizhi screamed while sobbing.

Yuan Qitai was pissed off. “Why is this guy so reckless? Although antiques are valuable, he needs to be alive to sell them!”

At that moment, Ye Chen was less than ten meters away from the erupting lava. He was walking faster as excitement filled his face. “What a dense fire element aura! The closer I get, the thicker the aura is. Judging by that, the fire element in the sinkhole must be intense. There must be fire essence in there!”

Bang!

The lava erupted, drowning Ye Chen completely.

“Sir Ye!”

“Brother Ye!”

Yu Lian, Yu Lei, and Zhizhi screamed at the same time while watching Ye Chen being devoured by the lava. Despair filled their faces.

“Oh no!” Yu Lei sat onto the ground and mumbled, “The captain asked us to protect Sir Ye, and now he’s dead. How are we supposed to explain this to the captain?”

“I shouldn’t have brought Brother Ye here.” Zhizhi’s eyes were wet, and her face was saturated with regret.

Yuan Qitai shook his head lightly and looked at the lava beneath with a serious face. He said, “Let’s go. It’s not somewhere we should stay. The Longmen Convention should’ve begun now.”

“What a fool! Look at what you’ve done. Forget it that you’re dead, but now you’ve dragged us into your trouble.” Yu Lian looked at where Ye Chen disappeared to before she shook her head and left with Yuan Qitai.

All of them were sure that Ye Chen was dead because even an armored tank would melt in the lava unless he was the Monkey King, Sun Wukong!

…

At the same time, it was a sea of fire in the sinkhole.

The people had no idea was that there was a man standing proudly in the sea of fire in the lava. The lava was rumbling beneath his feet as he was surrounded by endless fire. However, that did not hurt him at all.

“This doesn’t look like a volcano, but why is there so much lava and fire? Is there really fire essence in here?”

Ye Chen hovered in the air and looked at the sea of fire before him. He found out that the interior space was huge, whereby it was at least 1,000 square meters large. There were four natural caves around, and the fire and lava should have come from the caves.

He could not help but spread his Divine Consciousness into one of the caves. However, he found out that the range of coverage was limited in the sea of fire.

“It’s not hot enough. The pressure on me is insignificant!” Ye Chen shook his head lightly. He would need a certain pressure to achieve Foundation Building. Only under immense pressure could he release all of his potential.

“I hope that you won’t disappoint me!”

He took a step out and chose the cave on the far left. He walked in slowly. He realized that the deeper he went, the higher the temperature was. If it was 200 degrees Celsius out there, the temperature would increase by ten degrees Celsius with each step he took. It was 300 degrees Celsius when he arrived inside.

Ye Chen had sweat dripping from his forehead under the high temperature. However, he did not stop. He proceeded to go deeper.

A red shadow suddenly appeared behind him. Subsequently, it was charging quickly at his back like a specter.

Quickly, Ye Chen threw a punch behind him.

The thing shirked in pain and took a few steps back. It looked at Ye Chen in fear as it stood far away. It was an animal that was the size of a pigeon. However, it was completely red. To be exact, it was filled with fire like a fire bird.

“Bi Fang?” Ye Chen squinted.
