Warren's Rise and Fall

Chapter 179 Encountering a Ghoul

As the two of them continued to go deeper into the endless fire area, the temperature around them became increasingly hot, as if everything was about to be burned to ashes. Wang Lunwo had no choice but to use all his strength to activate the water element, forming a solid water coat around his body. The water coat exuded a soft light, as if it was a cool oasis in this hot world, resisting the high temperature invasion from the outside world. Seeing this, Yan Jinfan also followed suit and quickly mobilized his own water element, also forming a water coat around his body. With the protection of this water coat, the discomfort of the two was slightly alleviated.

After recovering from the scorching heat, Yan Jinfan was the first to start talking. He stared at Wang Lunwo with curiosity and inquiry in his eyes, "Brother Wang, I just saw you use the water, gold and earth elements in your battle, and you also felt the aura of the great way of water. I think you are gifted, and you are probably not an unknown person." Yan Jinfan's words revealed his admiration and doubt for Wang Lunwo, and he was eager to get some answers from Wang Lunwo.

However, Wang Lunwo didn't think so. He had his own considerations in mind and didn't intend to easily tell his past. "It's nothing, it's just a technique I got by chance." Wang Lunwo said lightly, pretending not to know and continued on his way. You little brat, you still want to get words from me, Wang Lunwo muttered in his heart. Yan Jinfan looked at Wang Lunwo's expression and knew that the other party didn't trust him yet. Since the other party didn't intend to say it, there was no need to make himself look bad, so he also continued on his way silently without saying anything.

The two had just walked less than ten miles when Yan Jinfan suddenly tensed up and whispered, "Brother Wang, be careful, there are ghouls ahead." Because the temperature here was extremely high and the surroundings were all in a fire environment, Wang Lunwo also put on a water coat, so he did not activate the water perception. But Yan Jinfan, with his keen intuition, discovered the danger first.

On a huge rock not far away, several ghouls were gnawing on the skeleton of an unknown animal. Fortunately, they were not human beings, Wang Lunwo thought to himself, and then he began to observe the ghouls carefully. The ghouls were all bones, without a trace of flesh and blood, and there were flames burning on their wrists and ankles, and their mouths, eyes, and nostrils were also blazing with flames. It seemed that they had completely adapted to the living environment here.

Yan Jinfan took out his sword and prepared to attack. Wang Lunwo hesitated, "Fellow Daoist Yan, are you just going to attack them right away? Why not wait until they finish eating the corpse and leave?" Wang Lunwo had his own concerns and did not want to get involved in an unnecessary battle.

Yan Jinfan said calmly: "Brother Wang, those zombies are less than ten meters away from the road we are going to take. We must get rid of them if we want to pass, and the old monster with an infant in his body from the Poison Mist Island behind us may catch up with us at any time. We are still on the edge of the Endless Fire Domain, so we should hurry up." There was a sense of urgency in Yan Jinfan's words.

Wow, good fellow, who was the one who said he was taking a rest just now? Now that he has the ability to fight, he is fighting more actively than me. Is he afraid of the old monster behind him, or is he born to like fighting? Wang Lunwo muttered to himself. However, he also understood that Yan Jinfan's words made sense. Since fighting cannot be avoided, he can only face it bravely. Wang Lunwo saw that Yan Jinfan was going to fight, and he didn't say anything else. He just silently took out his own weapon, a combination of axe and shield with gold attributes.

The two flew out at the same time and rushed towards the three ghouls. The weapons chopped on the bones, making a crisp sound, and at the same time, the flying flames splashed everywhere. The two did not have time to enjoy these scenes. Seeing that the first attack did not succeed, the two increased the intensity of the attack. After a brief moment of surprise, the attacked ghouls also began to fight back.

"Fellow Daoist Yan, why are these ghouls so difficult to deal with?" Wang Lunwo used his water perception to detect and found that the ghouls in front of him were only at the body refining stage, but why were their bones still so hard after he increased the intensity of his attack? Wang Lunwo was full of doubts and had to ask Yan Jinfan.

"Brother Wang, these zombies have lived in the Endless Fire Domain for a long time. The high temperature environment around them is the best way to temper their bones, just like we temper our bodies during the body refining period. So it is normal for their bones to be so hard." Yan Jinfan said as he began to use his water element magic to bless his sword to attack.

With the blessing of the water element, the attack power has indeed increased. Yan Jinfan's sword left obvious dents on the opponent's bones. If he hits him a few more times, the opponent's bones should be broken. Wang Lunwo knew that he couldn't hold back. I didn't expect that I would need to take the ghouls I met in this marginal area seriously. What should I do with the road ahead? Should I go or not? Although Wang Lunwo had doubts in his heart, he should get rid of these three ghouls as soon as possible. Otherwise, if they call their friends and rush over in groups, he will be in trouble.

With this in mind, Wang Lunwo poured out the energy of the twelve gold elements in the axe. The axe's sharp energy, shining with golden light, pierced through the two ghouls like a flash of lightning, and the latter's body was instantly broken into two pieces. The remaining ghoul saw that the situation was not good and wanted to escape. Yan Jinfan hurriedly said, "Brother Wang, don't let it escape."

Wang Lunwo did not hesitate and directly released a water sword condensed from the Great Dao of Water. The water sword seemed gentle, but in fact it contained a powerful force, and easily killed the ghoul who was still running.

"Friend Daoist Yan, before we came here, you didn't tell me that the creatures in this Endless Fire Domain are so difficult to deal with. We are only at the edge of the area, and I have already revealed all my cards. Can I continue to go on?" After the battle, Wang Lunwo asked the doubts in his heart, and also complained with some dissatisfaction.

"Brother Wang, don't be anxious. First of all, we will only pass along the edge of the Endless Fire Domain. Secondly, my injuries have not fully recovered, otherwise I would not have asked you to take action to deal with the escaped zombie just now. Moreover, this Endless Fire Domain is a good place to comprehend the element of fire. I think you will not miss such an opportunity." Yan Jinfan's words were full of comfort and temptation.

It must be said that Yan Jinfan's words touched Wang Lunwo's heart. Well, it's okay to go slower, as long as we can pass through this endless fire area smoothly. Wang Lunwo thought to himself. So the two of them continued on their journey.

They moved forward cautiously in this endless fire area, and every step was full of vigilance. The flames around them seemed to be dancing a dance of death, and could swallow them up at any time. However, they did not retreat, because they knew that only by moving forward bravely could they find their own path.

As they went deeper, the surrounding environment became more severe. The high temperature made it difficult to breathe, and the light of the flames was dazzling. However, they still walked firmly, with their hearts full of exploration of the unknown and hope for the future.

During this process, Wang Lunwo and Yan Jinfan were constantly communicating. They shared their experiences and insights, learned from each other, and made progress together. They knew that in this dangerous world, only by working together could they survive better.
