Soul travels through the world of immortality

After obtaining the ice crystal necklace in the Far North, Li Mingyang and Xiaolongma continued their journey to find the fourth treasure.

According to clues in ancient books, the fourth treasure is hidden inside a mysterious volcano, where the environment is extremely harsh and difficult for ordinary people to approach.

After several days of arduous trekking, they finally arrived at the foot of the volcano.

The volcano was filled with a strong and pungent smell of sulfur. The ground was covered with cracks, and boiling magma continued to spew out from the cracks. The entire space was shrouded in a scorching atmosphere.

Li Mingyang and Xiaolong approached the crater cautiously, preparing to explore deeper into it.

At this moment, a familiar voice broke the silence around.

"Li Mingyang, is that you?"

Li Mingyang turned around when he heard the voice and saw a man wearing a gray robe, with a slightly haggard face but sharp eyes standing not far away.

He recognized the other person at a glance. This person was none other than his senior brother from the Cultivation Academy - Lin Hao.

"Senior Brother Lin Hao!" Li Mingyang shouted in surprise.

Lin Hao walked over quickly, patted Li Mingyang on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect to meet you here. Where are you going?"

Li Mingyang briefly introduced the four treasures he was looking for, and mentioned that the fourth treasure might be hidden in the volcano. After hearing this, Lin Hao's expression became solemn.

"There are indeed treasures hidden in the volcano, but the environment there is extremely dangerous. I went there once and almost lost my life." Lin Hao said, "However, since you are determined to find it, I can help you."

Li Mingyang nodded gratefully, and Xiaolong also welcomed Lin Hao to join them. So, the three of them headed towards the depths of the volcano together.

The environment inside the volcano is even worse than expected. The hot magma flows, spewing out hot air and flames from time to time. The air is filled with the smell of sulfur, making it difficult to breathe. The ground is rugged and covered with rocks and magma potholes.

They moved forward carefully, avoiding lava flows and hot gas vents. Lin Hao was familiar with this place, and he led Li Mingyang and Xiaolong to avoid some dangerous areas. Despite this, they still encountered many difficulties.

Suddenly, a strong hot air gushed out from the front, forming a wall of fire. Li Mingyang and Xiaolong retreated in a hurry, but Lin Hao rushed towards the wall of fire without fear. He waved the long sword in his hand, and the sword energy crisscrossed and split the wall of fire to create a passage.

"Let's go!" Lin Hao shouted.

Li Mingyang and Xiaolong rushed through the passage without hesitation and continued forward. The deeper they went, the higher the temperature and the greater the pressure. But they did not retreat and were determined to find the trace of the treasure.

Finally, they came to a huge cave. There was a strange light flashing in the cave, which seemed to hide some secrets.

"This is it." Lin Hao said, "We have to be careful, there may be other dangers inside."

They walked into the cave and saw a gorgeous scene. The walls of the cave were inlaid with various gems, emitting dazzling light. In the center of the cave, there was a high platform with a mysterious object on it.

"Is that the fourth treasure?" Li Mingyang asked excitedly.

Lin Hao nodded and said, "This should be it. However, we have to solve the traps around it before we can get it."

They looked around carefully and found many hidden mechanisms and traps. In some places, the ground sank, in some places, poison arrows shot out, and in some places, flames spewed out. They needed to cleverly avoid these traps to get close to the platform.

After some effort, they finally succeeded in reaching the platform. Li Mingyang reached out and gently touched the treasure. The treasure emitted a strong energy fluctuation, as if resisting his touch.

"Be careful!" Lin Hao warned.

At this moment, the treasure suddenly released a powerful force, which knocked Li Mingyang out. He hit the cave wall hard and spit out blood.

"Not good!" Lin Hao's face changed and he quickly rushed towards Li Mingyang. Xiaolong also gathered around anxiously, looking at him worriedly.

"I'm fine..." Li Mingyang endured the pain and stood up with difficulty. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and looked towards the platform with a firm gaze.

"This treasure seems to be sealed by some force. We must break the seal to get it." Lin Hao said.

They began to study the runes and patterns around the platform, trying to find a way to unlock the seal. After some attempts, they finally found a clue. It turned out that the runes needed to be touched in a specific order to unlock the seal.

Li Mingyang and Lin Hao worked closely together to activate the runes one by one. As the last rune was activated, the seal on the treasure was finally lifted. The treasure emitted a dazzling light, illuminating the entire cave.

"Great!" Li Mingyang picked up the treasure excitedly and felt the powerful force contained in it. He knew that this treasure would be an important help on his way forward.

However, before they could celebrate, they felt a powerful breath coming from deep in the cave. Then, a huge fire dragon appeared in front of them, spewing blazing fire from its mouth.

"Be careful!" Lin Hao shouted, "This fire dragon is very powerful, we have to be careful when dealing with it!"

Li Mingyang and Xiaolong immediately entered combat mode and engaged in a fierce battle with the fire dragon. The fire dragon was huge, moved swiftly, and the flames it spewed out of its mouth were incredibly powerful. They kept dodging the fire dragon's attacks while looking for opportunities to counterattack.

In the fierce battle, Li Mingyang gradually mastered the fire dragon's attack pattern. He used his flexible body to avoid the fire dragon's flames, and then took the opportunity to attack. Xiaolong relied on his powerful strength to confront the fire dragon head-on and caused it some damage.

Lin Hao assisted from the side, using swordsmanship to weaken the fire dragon's defense. With their joint efforts, the fire dragon's momentum gradually weakened. Finally, Li Mingyang saw the right moment and stabbed the fire dragon's eye with a sword, making it lose its fighting power.

The fire dragon fell to the ground and dissipated into a ball of flame. Li Mingyang, Lin Hao and Xiaolong all breathed a sigh of relief. They successfully defeated the fire dragon and obtained the fourth treasure.

"It's all thanks to you this time, Senior Brother Lin Hao." Li Mingyang said gratefully.

"You're welcome. We are all fellow disciples and it's only natural for us to help each other." Lin Hao replied with a smile.

They left the cave with the treasure and returned to the surface of the volcano. At this time, the sun had already set and the sky was stained with a gorgeous sunset glow.

"Next, we should go find the fifth treasure." Li Mingyang said.

"Okay, let's move on!" Lin Hao and Xiaolong responded in unison.

They embarked on a new journey, moving towards their goal with confidence. In the days to come, they will encounter more challenges and difficulties, but they believe that as long as they unite as one, they can overcome everything. The hot magma rolled in the cracks of the ground, and the roar of the lava eruption was endless. Li Mingyang and Xiaolong relied on their respective special abilities to move forward carefully. Lin Hao used his cultivation to help them withstand the high temperature and ensure safety.

While going deeper into the volcano, Lin Hao carefully avoided the boiling magma and hot air currents while telling Li Mingyang about his past experiences.

"Actually, I have been to this crater before. At that time, I didn't have such strong strength, so I couldn't explore deep into it. But that experience made me discover the secret of this volcano, and I also learned that there is a very precious treasure hidden inside." Lin Hao's tone was filled with excitement, as if he was recalling that exciting adventure time.

Li Mingyang asked curiously: "What treasure?"

Lin Hao's eyes flashed with greed: "That treasure is called the 'Melting Flame Heart'. Legend has it that it has the power to control fire and can make people extremely powerful. Unfortunately, I was not strong enough back then and failed to successfully obtain this treasure. But now with the help of a master like you, we will definitely succeed!"

Li Mingyang nodded after hearing this, expressing his willingness to help Lin Hao. After all, for a warrior, such a treasure is undoubtedly very attractive.

So, under the guidance of Lin Hao, the two continued to go deeper into the volcano. As they gradually approached the core area of ​​the volcano, the temperature around them became higher and higher, and the air was filled with a strong smell of sulfur. The magma on the ground kept rolling, and some sparks splashed from time to time.

Finally, they came to the core area of ​​the volcano. The temperature here was thousands of degrees, and even the air seemed to be burning. On a huge rock, they saw a crystal ball shining red. That was the "Molten Flame Heart".

Just as they were about to approach the crystal ball, suddenly, a group of strange creatures appeared around them. These creatures were covered in flames, their eyes were red, and they let out piercing roars. They quickly surrounded Lin Hao and Li Mingyang, ready to attack.

Obviously, these creatures are the guardians of the "Melting Flame Heart" and will not let anyone approach the treasure easily. Faced with the sudden enemy, Lin Hao and Li Mingyang immediately became alert and prepared for a fierce battle.

"Be careful, these are fire beasts." Lin Hao warned, his voice low and serious. His eyes were fixed on the front, and his hand was tightly holding a sword that was flashing with cold light.

Li Mingyang and Xiaolong reacted quickly, their expressions becoming serious. The scales on Xiaolong's body trembled slightly, emitting a faint light, as if ready to attack at any time. Li Mingyang clenched his fists, with a flash of determination in his eyes.

"They are very ferocious, we must join forces to deal with them." Lin Hao continued, his tone firm and decisive. He knew that facing these fire beasts, fighting alone would only put them in danger. Only by uniting as one can they defeat them.

Li Mingyang and Xiaolong looked at each other and nodded in agreement. They knew Lin Hao's strength and experience and believed in his judgment. So they quickly stood together and formed a tight defense line.

Lin Hao took the lead in launching the attack. He brandished his sword, and the blade flashed with blazing flames. He flashed and rushed towards a fire spirit beast in an instant. His sword skills were sharp and unstoppable. After being hit, the fire spirit beast roared, but did not retreat. Instead, it pounced on Lin Hao more fiercely.

Seeing this, Li Mingyang rushed forward without hesitation and fought side by side with Lin Hao. He used his unique boxing skills, and the wind from his fists was whistling, like a volcanic eruption, with amazing power. Xiaolong assisted from the side, opening his mouth and spewing out balls of flames, causing considerable interference to the fire spirit beast.

The three of them joined forces to fight against the fire beasts, and the scene was extremely fierce. The fire beasts continued to attack, and the flames were blazing, dazzling. But Lin Hao, Li Mingyang and Xiaolong were not afraid. They cooperated closely, supported each other, and gradually gained the upper hand.

After a fierce battle, the Fire Spirit Beast was finally repelled. The last Fire Spirit Beast fell under Lin Hao's sword and turned into a pile of ashes.

"It was a close call. These fire beasts are really hard to deal with." Li Mingyang wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked at Lin Hao with admiration on his face. He knew very well that without Lin Hao's help, it would be difficult for them to defeat these fire beasts.

Lin Hao smiled slightly and nodded. He knew that this was the result of teamwork, and everyone played to their strengths to achieve victory.

The three of them walked towards the "Molten Heart" together. The crystal ball radiated a dazzling light, like a shining gem.

Li Mingyang reached out his hand and gently touched the crystal ball. Suddenly, he felt a strong fire energy surge into his body. His body trembled slightly, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.

"Congratulations, Li Mingyang." Lin Hao said, "You have obtained the 'Melting Flame Heart'. The rest of your journey will be smoother."
