Chapter Fifty-One: The Best Opportunity
A dazzling golden light formed an elliptical aura around Rega, as if a heavenly god had descended.
Almost at the same time as falling into the lava river, the limited invincible medicine took effect. Under the protection of the light mask, the scorching heat was completely isolated, and the battered body felt a refreshing sensation, and the turbulent lava below looked like just a small stream.
Lei Ga didn't stop, he quickly swam across the lava river, stretching out his hand to grab the rocks on the opposite shore.
The flames on the other side of the shore burst into a restless roar, their shiny scales colliding with each other, emitting a metallic rubbing sound. Several fierce flame lizards pushed their companions away and surrounded Leica's landing site, opening their mouths wide, ready to savor the delicious taste at any moment.
Lei Ga's mouth corner revealed a hint of evil smile, he first put away the alchemy tool box, one hand propped on the rock frame, and the other hand suddenly grabbed a handful of magma fire water, directly splashing it onto those few flame lizards. The scorching magma instantly penetrated the thick scales of the flame lizards, turning into strands of charred black smoke.
Although the Flame Lizard is a fierce beast with flame attributes, the temperature of the magma is still unbearable for them. The few Flame Lizards that were splashed by Lei Ga's flames let out a shrill cry, flipped over onto the ground, and twisted their massive bodies in agony.
The other uninjured Flame Lizards did not retreat or attack Rega, but instead frantically rushed to the side of the injured Flame Lizard and tore at their bodies, feeding on each other.
Killing each other in the same class!
Lei Ga finally understood how the flame lizard maintained its survival in this barren environment. He didn't have time to look closely, grabbed the alchemy tool box, quickly climbed ashore, and took advantage of the moment when the flame lizards were jumping high in confusion, trampling their bodies, and desperately ran towards the outside of the cave.
Twenty seconds...
Every extra meter you run means one less meter of suffering. Once your invincible state disappears, you'd better be prepared to be attacked.
Lei Ga clenched his teeth and reached into the package, tightly grasping the potent restorative medicine in his palm.
Behind him, the thirty or so Flame Lizards did not all come chasing after, some were busy fighting over the bodies of the injured Flame Lizards, and those who couldn't get any, closely followed Rega.
This situation allowed Leiga's tightly strung heartstrings to relax slightly, but it was still far from enough.
The effect of the limited invincible potion is about to disappear, and he can already feel the erosion of the heat wave, with still half a distance to escape from the cave entrance.
What's even more fatal is that his physical strength has been consumed to the limit. The alchemy tool box in his arms, although not heavy, but running with a box in his arms, without the help of his arms, made his originally slow speed gradually slower.
A flame lizard seized the opportunity and rushed towards Lei after he was struck, its robust body colliding with the Invincible Light Shield, but it ended up getting itself knocked back instead.
But the Invincible Light Shield also disappeared immediately, and the effect of the limited Invincible Potion just ended.
Lei Ga shouted out in a low voice, and immediately felt a wave of heat overwhelm him. His chest heaved with a surge of blood, and he stumbled, almost falling to the ground.
The physical scars began to ache again, and the blisters on his feet also oozed out a faint pus, as if all the previous torments were relived once more.
My legs are cramping and my muscles are twitching, but it's still not the best time to drink strong recovery medicine.
Lei exerted himself to steady his body, condensing all of his fourth-stage Dou Qi into the soles of his feet as he continued to sprint towards the cave entrance.
This is the only way. By transferring all his aura to his feet, he completely lost the defensive power to resist the flame lizard's attack. If he could break through the four-stage aura limit and become a five-stage warrior, this precarious situation might be improved, but he only had four stages, and after experiencing so many hardships, he still couldn't break through the fourth stage.
Another flame lizard rushed up, pounced on him, and its sharp claws tore off a large piece of flesh from Rega's shoulder.
Fresh blood gushed out, instantly evaporated into a faint mist by the high temperature, and the sweat on his head slid down to the wound, like a handful of salt sprinkled on it.
Lei let out a low, muffled groan from his throat, and didn't bother to check the wound, continuing to run, run, run...
The bloody smell greatly stimulated the flame lizards, their movements became faster, and one by one they pounced on Lei Ga.
Lei Ga was covered in blood, his shoulders, back and thighs all had wounds from being bitten by the Flame Lizard. He clenched a strong recovery medicine in his hand, gritting his teeth to tell himself: It's not the best time yet, it's not...
The cave entrance was just ahead, but behind him was a long trail of blood, with twenty or so flame lizards chasing after the fresh blood, getting closer and closer, about to completely trap him!
Every time he wanted to seek more powerful support, there was always a strange power stirring in his chest, accompanied by a throbbing headache and weakness in his limbs.
This situation is really...
Infuriating!
Lei let out a loud roar and relied on his own strong willpower to shake off the Flame Lizard group once again, charging towards the direction of the cave entrance.
A flame lizard lay across the entrance of his cave, and Rega's heart suddenly rose. He suddenly realized that this was the flame lizard he had deliberately avoided before. In a situation where there were pursuers behind him, any delay would ruin everything!
Alright! Narrow road ahead, only a fight to the death!
Leyga's loud voice rang out as he drew his massive black sword, but before he could even adjust his stance, he was shocked to find that the flame lizard was still fast asleep.
He immediately raised the blade to avoid entanglement, and with a forceful jump of both feet, he leaped over the Flame Lizard's body, continuing to run towards the cave entrance.
The Flame Lizards that were hot on their heels didn't have time to react and instead got tripped up by a drowsy teammate who was sleeping like a lazy pig. The sleepy Flame Lizard was extremely dissatisfied at being woken up and roared as it attacked the companion who had trampled it, causing the group of Flame Lizards to become disordered and only a dozen or so continuing to chase after Lei Ga.
The best time!
The entrance was right in front of him, and Ryga already felt the high temperature subside. He used his thumb to push away the bottle stopper of the potent recovery agent, drank the red medicine in one gulp, and then threw the empty bottle at the Flame Lizard group.
A lizard jumped high up with a beautiful head-tossing posture, biting an empty bottle and eating it with a crunching sound.
The effect of the potent recovery medicine immediately manifested on Rega, all his wounds healed and repaired, the pain also disappeared, and his physical strength was full, as if he had been reborn.
If we don't get rid of the Flame Lizards, they might keep chasing us all the way to Twilight Village.
He ran out of the flame cave, stopped immediately, put the alchemy tool box at his feet, and grasped the hilt of the black giant sword tightly with both hands. When the flame lizards arrived at the entrance of the cave, Leiga infused all four levels of Dou Qi into the black giant sword, a red light flashed, and the granite stone at the top of the cave entrance fell like a guillotine!
The few Flame Lizards that charged to the front were immediately smashed out of their brains, and the remaining Flame Lizards were blocked in the cave, only able to let out angry roars.
The high temperature has dropped significantly, just like the furnace mouth was sealed.
Lei let out a long sigh of relief, sheathed his sword, bent down to pick up the alchemy tool box, and turned to leave with ease.
His physical condition has fully recovered, not only the wounds from the Flame Cave have healed, but also the injuries from the previous battle with the Darkwater River's Angry Claw Lobster have been restored. Even earlier, the pain left over from the battle with Dorton has also disappeared. Rega feels an infinite amount of power filling his body, and his feet feel as if they are walking on air.
Xu Lingtian was indeed a master-level alchemist, although his intentions were not pure, his skills were genuine. If Leiga hadn't left this bottle of potent recovery potion behind and had drunk it during the battle with the Angry Claw Lobster, perhaps the lobster would have been easier to deal with, but walking out of the Flame Cave unscathed was simply impossible.
In fact, Leiga had already made up his mind that whether it was a spiritual monster or an angry dragon shrimp, or even a group of flame lizards, none of them were the true enemies he needed to face.
The real formidable enemy is Xu Lingtian.
This alchemist has an ulterior motive, and Rega must be in top condition to deal with whatever might happen. This is also why Rega had to wait until after escaping the Flame Cavern before drinking the high-potency restorative medicine.
Although he had the medicine in his hand, he still had to endure the torture of pain. This willpower is not something that ordinary people can achieve. It requires not only strong willpower but also almost cruel execution power. Leica persisted until the end, and at the moment he drank the medicine, all the suffering and sacrifice became worthwhile.
Lei quickly left the area of Dwarf Furnace Mountain and stopped to rest for a while before entering Dusk Village.
The boots on his feet had been burned through with several holes, but fortunately they could still hold on. His clothes were soaked in sweat and stuck tightly to his body, and a simple wring would squeeze out a large patch of sweat stains. But Leiga didn't care about these at all, he simply wiped the sweat beads from his forehead, then carefully opened the alchemy tool box.
A faint green glow escaped as the box opened, adding a touch of eeriness to the dark night.
Lei Ga squinted his eyes and saw that the source of the green light came from a small bottle of medicine, only about the size of a thumb. The medicine had been used up to one quarter of its dosage, and the mouth of the bottle was sealed tightly with various seals.
Lei gazed at the faint light, only to feel a wave of dizziness wash over him. He looked away, taking several deep breaths in succession before his emotions calmed down.
Evil thing - Xu Lingtian must have used this thing to revive Yinxia.
After confirming his own thoughts, Lei Ga didn't feel the slightest joy. He sympathized with Xu Lingtian and Yin Lisha, moved by their love for each other, but to prevent evil from spreading, he would have to go and behead Xu Lingtian.
Thinking of this, I feel extremely depressed.
He closed the lid of his alchemy toolbox and started running towards the direction of Twilight Village.
Alchemist, I'm here. Are you ready...
