Chapter 116 Holy Fire
Ten miles west of Wanjun Peak, there is a hill.

You Shengnan led Bai Yuan up the mountain path. The higher they went, the higher the temperature became, and the surrounding trees turned withered and yellow.

After the two reached the top, their faces were illuminated red by the flames, and the scorching heat made their breathing rapid.

This is a volcano!
Yes, this is the Holy Fire Pit, one of the two holy places for cultivation in Shenfu Sect that is only open to inner disciples.

Legend has it that this place is not a natural volcano, but was formed by a meteorite from outer space that was attracted by the founder of the mountain and hit the top of the mountain.

Of course, Bai Yuan didn't believe it at all.

Do you really think you are a great magician?
He guessed that it was most likely a meteorite that hit the dormant volcano and reawakened the lava.

Later generations exaggerated the story and turned it into the story of the founder attracting the stars. There are too many legends like this in the Shenfu Sect.

Even the current sect leader Murong Tian has many such magical rumors.

Of course, the people of Huanglong Prefecture still believed this, and the stories circulating among the people were more outrageous than each other. Many people regarded Murong Tian as a god.

"Junior Brother Bai, this is the Holy Fire Pit."

You Shengnan said this while pointing at the huge fire pit where lava was boiling.

I saw many Shenfu Sect disciples sitting cross-legged around the fire pit, closing their eyes to resist the heat waves caused by the lava.

These disciples are using high temperatures to strengthen their bodies.

Of course, an ordinary volcano would not have such an effect, but the meteorite that fell into the Holy Fire Pit that year seemed to contain some kind of magical substance. This substance can enhance the physique of martial artists, and the high temperature can allow martial artists to better absorb this substance.

Therefore, the Holy Fire Pit naturally became a holy place for practicing martial arts for the Shenfu Sect.

"Junior Brother Bai, this is your first time practicing in the Holy Fire Pit. It's best not to go too deep. Just practice on the periphery, otherwise you will be hurt by the fire poison."

You Shengnan reminded seriously.

Many disciples, because of their greed for merit and recklessness, went too deep into the Holy Fire Pit and were ultimately unable to resist the fire poison, which invaded their internal organs and left hidden injuries. Some even died suddenly.

Bai Yuan nodded.

You Shengnan was not worried that Bai Yuan would do anything stupid. This new junior disciple of her master was mature beyond his years and much calmer than those children from aristocratic families. She did not need any extra worry from him.

She then explained to Bai Yuan some details about practicing in the Holy Fire Pit, then jumped down and sat cross-legged in meditation on a platform on the rock wall of the fire pit.

The walls of the Holy Fire Pit are uneven, with many raised platforms, and the disciples of the Shenfu Sect practice their skills on these platforms.

It can be roughly divided into seven floors according to height.

The closer the platform is to the magma, the higher the temperature will naturally be, and the corresponding effect will be better.

However, even You Shengnan only dared to practice on the first level, and only true disciples and elders dared to try the deeper levels.

The Holy Fire Pit is extremely large, and the entire mountain is occupied by a pool of lava.

Bai Yuan walked along the Holy Fire Pit to a sparsely populated area, and then jumped down.

Ordinary people would have their legs trembling even if they just took a look at it, let alone jump into the fire pit.

However, this is a common occurrence for a martial artist like Bai Yuan.

I saw Bai Yuan hanging upside down on the cliff like a monkey, as light as a swallow.

One layer. Two layers
As the altitude continued to decrease, the temperature around my body became higher and higher, much stronger than the sauna in my previous life.

There is an extra layer of crystal film on the surface of Bai Yuan's skin that is almost invisible to the naked eye.

This is exactly the power of the Tiger-Crane Style!

His strength has infinite uses. Now his ability to resist heat is almost equivalent to that of a junior master, so Bai Yuan can continue to get closer to the boiling magma.

If this scene was seen by others, they would only think that it was the masters of the Thirteen Peaks who came to the Holy Fire Pit, and would never imagine that it was an inner sect disciple.

After an incense stick of time, he stood firmly on the platform of the sixth floor. This was the limit of what he could reach now.

The seventh level is almost equivalent to taking a bath in magma. I really can’t imagine how strong one has to be to reach this last level.

But the sixth floor is enough.
Bai Yuan did not sit cross-legged and practice like You Shengnan and other inner disciples, but walked along the cliff.

Finally, he stopped at the entrance of a cave.

Finally found it. Bai Yuan looked at the cave entrance with shining eyes.

The entrance to the cave is right on the rock wall of the Holy Fire Pit. The entrance is narrow and can only allow one person to enter.

Bai Yuan bent down and walked into the cave.

The temperature in the cave was higher than that outside, and even the strength could not be resisted. In just a moment, Bai Yuan's clothes were soaked with sweat.

The cave is not big, and you will reach the end after walking about ten feet.

And on the rock wall at the end of the cave, there were several ferocious beetles that were fiery red with a faint golden glow.

When Bai Yuan saw the beetle, he felt as happy as meeting an old friend again, and he couldn't wait to chop it down.

Yes, he came to the Holy Fire Pit not to practice martial arts, but to transform into this beetle.

This insect is called the Fire-armored Longicorn Beetle, and it is a unique creature that grows in the Holy Fire Pit.

This cave was not formed naturally, but was dug out by these fire-armored longicorn beetles.

The Fire-Armored Longicorn Beetle only exists in the area below the sixth layer of the Holy Fire Pit, so even the elders of the Divine Mansion Sect may not know about it.

Bai Yuan is a monster hunter and has the ability to find monsters, which is why he found it so easily.

Yes, these fire-armored longhorn beetles in front of us are evil insects that have become spirits!
Bai Yuan had done a lot of brushing in his previous life.

The sleeping fire-armored longicorn seemed to be aware of Bai Yuan's appearance. The red insect armor on its back suddenly opened, flapped its wings, and flew towards Bai Yuan's face.

Bai Yuan's movements were not slow either.

The Blood Tiger Scimitar was already in his hand.

when!
There was a crisp sound of metal collision.

The fire-armored longhorn beetle actually survived Bai Yuan's blow. It just swayed slightly in the air and then returned to its original shape.

Bai Yuan changed his grip on the knife to that of both hands and took a deep breath.

"very good."

The tiger-shaped crane power in his body was flowing around his body like crazy. It had been a long time since he had used his full strength.

Another knife.

This sword has the blessing of the tiger-shaped crane, and its power is several times greater than before. The blade even makes a low-pitched hissing sound!
when!
There was another crisp sound, and the Fire-Armored Longicorn Beetle, which was originally as hard as iron, was split into two halves by Bai Yuan!

When the other fire-armored longhorn beetles noticed the death of their companion, they suddenly became more ferocious and attacked Bai Yuan's vital parts.

Because these fire-armored longhorn beetles have lived in the holy fire pit for a long time, they carry extremely terrible fire poison in their bodies. Even a blood-refining martial artist would be poisoned to death in an instant if bitten by one of them.

The space in the cave was extremely small, leaving almost no room for Bai Yuan to move.

Suddenly, a tiger roar was heard in the cave!
It is the Tiger Evil after the Blood Tiger Sword has been practiced to perfection.

Even if the fire-armored longhorn beetle becomes an elf, its intelligence is not high. How can it withstand such a soul attack?
The wings stopped instantly and fell to the ground together.

The blood tiger scimitar harvests at the right time.

However, in an instant, all four fire-armored longhorn beetles were killed by Bai Yuan.
