"That old man has some reputation in our Xuyang County." Someone chimed in, "His name is Wang Yun! He's a somewhat influential master from Fanzhou City in our Xuyang County. However...in our Fanzhou City, he can only be ranked among the top few. But now, he's actually able to fight with the masters of the 'Dì Bǎng', I didn't expect this old Wang to have such strong abilities hidden away."
"Within the Fan Wu City, only a few can be ranked in front? But he is almost on par with Ji Hongtong, the leader of Qingzhou's Shanshui Sect and the elder 'Qi Yan', which is already close to the Earth List."
The other warriors also heard and praised him with sighs of admiration.
A martial artist who can't even rank first in a small town is self-evident in strength. By rights, at most considered to be a pretty good first-rate martial artist.
"It's hidden deep enough!"
Many people silently remembered the name 'Wang Yun', and from today on, Wang Yun's great name will spread rapidly.
*******
Hei Bai two elders join forces to deal with Tun Qing Shan, Ji Hong, the silver-haired old man 'Wang Yun' and that ruthless woman 'Qi Yan' also fight each other.
……
Everyone present didn't notice the lava lake.
Gurgling~~~~
Occasionally, bubbles emerge and heat radiates. This is a common sight. Deep within the fiery lava flows of the lava lake, a gigantic creature lies hidden at the bottom of the lava flow, which slowly moves forward, its terrifying high temperature unable to harm this enormous creature in the slightest.
Its enormous body was over 20 feet tall and had a length of more than 40 or 50 feet, with a terrifying tail that was over 20 feet long.
It's the Red Scale Beast!
The Red Scale Beast was originally a fire-elemental demon beast, and the boiling power within its body is precisely the power of fire! Once it swallows the 'Red Fire Spirit Fruit' and undergoes another transformation, at that time, it will be able to spit out flames, and those flames will be even more terrifying than this lava flow, capable of easily melting gold and iron. Even a First-Order cultivator would tremble with fear at the mere thought of it.
As for magma flows, the Crimson Scaled Beast likes scorching environments.
It was born in a scorching environment from an early age. At the bottom of the magma flow, it's just a bath for it. The heat has no effect on it at all.
At the bottom of the lava flow, it can even open its eyes!
The transparent membrane on the surface of the pupil can easily withstand such high temperatures. Completely different from human eyes, not only can it adapt to high temperatures, but also in the dark, it can see objects as if it were daytime.
It's lurking!
As a monster, its hearing is also terribly strong. Its pair of ears clearly heard the sound of weapons clashing above, and could even distinguish the position of each person based on the sound.
……
No one knew that the Red Scaled Beast was hiding at the bottom of the Lava Lake, while Teng Qing Shan and the other five were still fighting.
"This Teng Qing Shan, his marksmanship is indeed formidable. I and Old White joined forces, but we couldn't take him down." The Black Elder and the White Elder exchanged a glance, both unable to conceal their shock in their hearts. Although they were ranked sixty-ninth and seventieth on the Earth Board respectively.
It's almost at the end.
After all, both of them are masters of "Dì Bǎng" and they are in a narrow space.
"My identity must not be exposed!" The silver-haired old man, 'Wang Yun', dodged that bright red blade. "The habits, movements, and smile of 'Wang Yun' - I spent almost a year figuring them out, completely replacing him, living as him. What a carefree life! If my 'Wang Yun' identity is exposed, then Wei Wuyue will definitely come to kill me! I can only play with these little guys for now."
Wang Yun wielded a long sword, opening and closing it with great force.
Just as the six masters were killing each other—
"Boom!" The calm and slowly flowing lava river suddenly exploded!
Molten lava splashed everywhere, and even the masters far away from the lake of lava were shocked and dodged in a hurry. However, a small amount of molten lava still splattered over, and the scorching hot lava landed on people's bodies. The extremely high temperature would cause clothes to catch fire instantly, burning skin and muscles. The poor warriors who got splashed cried out in agony.
"Ah!" "Hiss——"
There is still a meaty smell, but they are fine, just some minor injuries.
Six people on the black boulder, oh no!
"What a thing!" The six people were all shocked.
Facing the splashing magma, all six masters dodged quickly. But immediately after, they saw a huge skull emerge from the surface of the magma lake. The skull alone was over eight feet (two meters) long, and its terrifying size surpassed that of an average adult male.
"Red Scaled Beast!" Teng Qing Shan's face changed color.
"Red Scaled Beast!"
A distant cry of surprise echoed through the air, no one had expected that the Crimson Scaled Beast was hiding at the bottom of the Lava Lake.
This enormous crimson-scaled beast had just poked its head out, its bright red eyes staring at the six people like lanterns, its massive mouth open.
Wow!
A large surge of magma shot out like a sharp arrow towards the six people on the black rock.
"This Crimson Scale Beast can actually absorb magma? And spit it out?" Teng Qing Shan was shocked, the Crimson Scale Beast had long been accustomed to high temperatures, and even its weak eyeballs could withstand it, let alone its mouth and throat. The spewed-out magma formed a fan shape, covering the entire black boulder.
The six masters jumped up at the same time.
"Boom!"
The entire body of the Crimson Scaled Beast burst out of the lava flow, its massive body over 6 meters high and 12-15 meters long, like a small mountain. The warriors in the distance all let out cries of surprise.
The terrifying mouth of the Red Scale Beast opened wide, directly covering the master from Qingzhou, also the only woman among the six, 'Qi Yan'. Qi Yan's scarred face twisted in horror. She let out a loud shout and swung her curved knife at the attacking Red Scale Beast.
The red scales beast dodged slightly.
Clang!
The curved knife chopped on the red scales of the beast's forehead, leaving only a white mark on the dense scales, but the red-scaled beast took advantage of the opportunity to bite down on 'Qī Yàn'.
"Crack!"
Those serrated teeth, like a saw blade, directly bit down on Qi Yan. Qi Yan's body was bitten in two, one half falling into the lava lake and turning to ash. The other half was swallowed whole by the Red Scale Beast. This scene made almost all the warriors' blood run cold!
One glance, and Qi Yan's body dies!
Wow!
While Teng Qing Shan and the five others jumped up, they also fell down at this moment. Just as they were falling down, unable to borrow strength in the process.
"Whoa!" The massive body of the Red Scale Beast charged towards the five people!
Note that the entire black stone surface is only over one zhang in length and width. The Red Scale Beast, however, is a massive creature with a height of over two zhang and a length of four to five zhang. With this pounce, Teng Qing Shan and his five companions felt as if a small mountain was pressing down on them. Moreover, the Red Scale Beast's pair of front hooves had sharp claws that were swiping over!
It didn't dare to catch Teng Qing Shan!
In his eyes, among the five people in front of him, Teng Qing Shan was the most threatening one!
"Hah!" "Hah!"
The claws on his paws were like four sharp knives stabbing at the same time, respectively covering Ji Hong and the white-haired old man.
"Clang!" "Clang!"
"Ah——"
The giant beast pounced, sending the five masters flying. Ji Hong and Bai Chang were particularly badly injured, with Ji Hong's long knife flying out of his hand and his right arm being crushed into a pulp, blood splattering everywhere. Bai Chang's left leg was also torn off by the beast's claws.
"Get out!" "Scram!"
The other three launched a fierce attack, and the black elder was knocked flying while stabbing his sword into the scales. Unfortunately, there was not even a crack.
Hong Qing Shan and the silver-haired old man 'Wang Yun' both launched a fierce attack!
"Boom!" Teng Qing Shan's Wheel of Reincarnation, accompanied by a chilling gust of air and an ear-piercing whistle, smashed towards the Red Scaled Beast. Just as it was about to collide with the beast, its power suddenly surged!
Pomelo!
The silver-haired old man 'Wang Yun' held a war knife in his hand, tearing through the sky and fiercely chopping down on the body of the Red Scaled Beast.
"Roar~~~~"
The Crimson Scaled Beast let out a pained roar as its massive body was sent tumbling.
Hong Qing Shan and the silver-haired elder 'Wang Yun' both attacked him, causing him injuries.
"Good kid." The silver-haired old man glanced at Teng Qing Shan, and others were far away. With Teng Qing Shan's move, it was the strongest power burst in the last moment. The time was extremely short, and people far away couldn't discover it, nor did they have the eyesight to judge how powerful the shot was. But this silver-haired old man could tell.
"In the world of martial arts, among the strongest of the younger generation, this young man from Qing Shan can at least rank in the top twenty." The silver-haired old man thought to himself.
The red-scaled beast was split in two by a single roll.
Teng Qing Shan and the silver-haired old man were also affected by that impact force, combined with the counter-shock force, shaking them flying towards the lakeshore.
Among the five people who were blown away, Teng Qing Shan, the silver-haired old man, and Hei Chang Lao were all prepared and could fly to the shore of the lava lake using the counter-shock force. However, Bai Chang Lao and Ji Hong were in a miserable state, they were seriously injured and flew towards the direction of the shore while falling. They had only flown for a short distance when they began to plummet downwards.
"Old White!" the black elder cried out in a mournful voice, unable to do anything but watch as Old White, who had lost one leg, struggled feebly before finally falling into the magma and bursting into flames!
"Your Excellency!" On the shores of the Lava Lake, Guan Lu and a group of people exclaimed in surprise.
"Commander!" Teng Qing Shan's face also changed color.
Bai Changlao is in a bad situation, and Ji Hong's situation is equally terrible!
"Am I going to die like this?" Ji Hong fell backwards and was about to plummet downwards, he had no way out, and even felt a wave of heat coming from his back.
"Command!" A loud shout echoed beside Ji Hong's ears.
Ji Hong turned his head and looked over.
A gunshot flashed over, as if hitting a sandbag. This gunshot struck Ji Hong's abdomen.
Wow!
Ji Hong was lifted off the ground and flew all the way to the shores of a distant lava lake. When he landed, Ji Hong couldn't help but feel shocked as he stared at Mount Qing in the sky above the lava lake: "Qing Mountain!"
"Green Mountain!" Even Guan Lu was shocked.
On the shores of the lava lake, many people stared at that Teng Qing mountain. Some were shocked, some admired, and some were delighted...
Hong Qing Shan was shocked by Ji Hong's sudden movement and flew back in the opposite direction, slowly heading towards the black boulder.
The counter-shock force was clearly insufficient, and Teng Qing Shan was about to fall down from a distance of three zhang away from the black boulder, below which was the scorching hot magma!
"Green Mountain!" Teng Qinghu shouted hastily.
"Your Excellency!"
The Hei Jia Jun soldiers shouted urgently.
Hong Qing Shan suddenly turned around, facing the direction of the black boulder. He then smiled and swung his Wheel Return Gun with all his might, striking down at the lava below!
Pong!
The flat diamond-shaped head of the Reincarnation Gun struck the magma, and a powerful recoil force acted on Teng Qing Shan. Teng Qing Shan was like an eagle, once again diving towards the black boulder in the center of the magma lake.
Next to the black boulder, the massive skull of the Crimson Scaled Beast emerged from the lava lake, its pair of icy red pupils staring straight at Teng Qing Shan who was flying towards it.
