Warren's Rise and Fall

Chapter 185 Encountering the Skeleton General

In the vast and mysterious world, the Endless Fire Realm is like a blazing pearl, exuding a chilling and dangerous atmosphere. The flames here are blazing, the temperature is unbearable, and the living environment is extremely harsh. However, for brave adventurers, the Endless Fire Realm also hides countless unknown opportunities and challenges.

Yan Jinfan and Wang Lunwo are two such brave adventurers. Ten days ago, Yan Jinfan's injuries had not fully recovered, but with his unremitting efforts, in these ten days, not only did his injuries fully recover, but his cultivation reached the perfection of the Qi and Machine Realm, and even went a step further than before, reaching the critical point of the perfection of the Qi and Machine Realm, and he could break through at any time. This achievement gave him a great boost of confidence, and also added a bit of confidence to their next adventure.

"Fellow Daoist Yan, let's go a little further today." Wang Lunwo suggested after using his water perception to detect Yan Jinfan's cultivation level. His eyes revealed a hint of anticipation and excitement, and he was obviously full of curiosity about the unknown ahead.

Yan Jinfan frowned slightly, thought for a moment and said: "Brother Wang, even if we continue at our previous speed, we will reach the edge of the central area of ​​the Endless Fire Domain today. We must be careful then." He was well aware of the dangers of the Endless Fire Domain, especially the central area, which was full of various powerful creatures and unknown dangers.

"Fellow Daoist Yan, I am of course aware of this matter, and I don't want to create any more trouble. I'm just afraid that by then the zombies and skeleton soldiers will discover us and I'll be forced to take action." Wang Lunwo nodded, a serious look on his face.

"Then we'll just have to act according to circumstances." Yan Jinfan said, and the two ended their conversation and began to move forward cautiously. Their steps were light and cautious, for fear of making any noise and causing unnecessary trouble.

As expected, they encountered a group of ghouls just a few hundred meters away. Among the ghouls, there were two skeleton soldiers leading them.

"Fellow Daoist Yan, should we still hide?" Wang Lunwo asked in a low voice. He held the hilt of the sword tightly, ready to deal with any emergency at any time.

"If you can avoid it, avoid it." Yan Jinfan said softly. The two of them quickly hid in a stone pit, leaving only half of their heads exposed to observe the situation outside. Their heartbeats accelerated involuntarily, and they nervously watched the every move of the ghouls and skeleton soldiers.

But things did not go as planned, and another group of ghouls and skeletons came over. The two dared not move at all, and buried their heads in the stone pit, only using their own perception skills from time to time to detect the movements on the other side. They prayed silently in their hearts, hoping that these ghouls and skeletons would leave as soon as possible.

However, the situation seemed to be getting worse. More and more ghouls and skeletons gathered, far beyond the two's expectations. Their hearts were filled with fear and anxiety, and they didn't know how to deal with this situation.

After a while, a voice came, "Aren't you two tired of staying in that stone pit?"

The two were shocked to see that they had been exposed. They looked at each other, discussed it, and decided to face it calmly. The two walked out of the stone pit and found that a chair had been moved to the opposite side at some point, and a skeleton soldier was sitting on the chair. This skeleton soldier was different from ordinary skeleton soldiers. The armband on his shoulder, the helmet on his head, and the blue flames in his eyes all indicated that he might not be an ordinary skeleton soldier.

Without needing to sense it, the two knew that this skeleton commander who could speak must be in the Condensation Realm, and in this cruel environment of the Endless Fire Region, his actual combat power must be at the Perfection of the Condensation Realm. When they thought of this, both of them had a resolute expression on their faces. They knew that facing such a powerful enemy, they had almost no chance of winning.

"Hey, you two don't think I'm going to fight you, do you?" The blue fire in the skeleton general's eyes revealed a hint of amusement. "Come on, I've been here for so long and finally I see a stranger from outside, and it's a human. To be honest, I'm very happy."

The two of them didn't like this. They put their hands on the storage bag, ready to take out weapons from it to fight at any time. They didn't dare to take it lightly. After all, the opponent's strength was too strong, and they could die if they were not careful.

The skeleton general ignored them and continued to talk to himself, "Although this is the edge of the central area, the temperature is not low. Not many humans can come here, especially those with cultivation like you. Humans with high cultivation will not come here because of the name of the Endless Fire Region. After all, the creatures in the core area are not kind people. That's why I am very interested in you. I haven't heard any news from the outside world for almost a hundred years. If your news satisfies me, I can let you go and maybe even give you some rewards."

When the two heard this, their tense nerves finally relaxed. They were secretly glad that there was still a glimmer of hope.

Wang Lunwo spoke first, "Brother, could you please stop breathing so heavily when you speak? I almost thought I was dead just now." There was a helpless smile on his face, and his tone was full of emotion of surviving a disaster.

Yan Jinfan also quickly spoke up, "Yes, brother, whatever you want to know, we will tell you everything we know." There was a hint of sincerity in his eyes, hoping to exchange his and Wang Lunwo's safety by providing useful information.

The Skeleton General then slowly spoke, "Has anything interesting happened in Central Shenzhou recently?"

During the brief exchange between the two, it seemed that neither of them knew what interesting thing had happened, and they were not sure what interesting thing the other wanted to know. They fell into deep thought, trying to recall the various news they had heard recently.

"Why, don't you want to leave?" The skeleton general pretended to be angry, but in fact he was very happy. He liked to see these humans trembling, and this feeling of controlling the fate of others made him feel extremely satisfied.

Wang Lunwo didn't care that the other party seemed interested and blurted out, "In the northwest, the lord of Yunting Mengze led his men to launch a beast tide, and invaded human cities on a large scale, and released the soul of his Taoist partner that had been sealed in the Five Elements City. A powerful cemetery was discovered in Yanhuo City, and only those with the Nengdan realm cultivation level were allowed to enter. Humans and demons were exploring together. Seven years later, Zhong Shenzhou will hold a once-in-a-century gathering of geniuses. The twelve bandits who had been entrenched in the Yunan Mountains south of Zhong Shenzhou for many years have been eliminated." Wang Lunwo spoke out all the major events he knew recently, hoping to arouse the other party's interest.

The blue light in the skeleton general's eyes flashed a few times after hearing this. "It seems that Yunting Mengze's nine-tailed fox can no longer hold back. Seven years later, it's the once-in-a-century gathering of geniuses in Central Shenzhou? The twelve bandits are not enough evidence. In the cemetery of the mighty, do you know which mighty one it is?"

Seeing that the other party was interested, Wang Lunwo had to make up a story, "It is said that it was a great man in Baguayu at that time." You forced me to say this, and there are indeed many signs that the great man was proficient in the art of formations during his lifetime. There is nothing wrong with what I said. He was a little uneasy, wondering if his lie could deceive the other party.

After hearing this, the skeleton general did not react obviously. "Yes, there are indeed one or two pieces of information that I am interested in. In that case, I should give you a reward." Then he took out two fist-sized stones from the storage ring, the stones were still burning with flames.

Yan Jinfan looked at the two flames and swallowed, "Sir, are you really going to give us these two flame crystals?" His eyes were full of surprise and disbelief. He obviously didn't expect the other party to give such a precious reward.

Now it was Wang Lunwo's turn to be confused, "Flame crystal? What is that?" A hint of confusion appeared on his face, and he was full of curiosity about this unfamiliar term.

Yan Jinfan hurriedly explained, "Flame crystals can increase a cultivator's affinity for the element of fire, allowing cultivators who were unable to comprehend the element of fire before to comprehend it more easily. And for those like Brother Wang who have already comprehended the element of fire, their understanding of it will be even deeper." His tone was filled with excitement and excitement, and he obviously realized the preciousness of these two flame crystals.

Wang Lunwo was also overwhelmed with emotion after hearing this. He obviously couldn't believe that the other party would just give him such a good thing. His heart was full of gratitude and surprise, but at the same time, he also had a little doubt about the purpose of the skeleton general.

The skeleton general looked at the two of them and laughed in his heart. He just likes to see you look like you have never seen the world. I won't tell you that this is what our master wants. He wants you human cultivators to cause some trouble for the nine-tailed fox. The guy who doesn't even know about the flame crystal seems to have great potential. Maybe he can cause a lot of trouble for the people of Yunting Mengze.

The skeleton general adjusted his mood, "Okay, don't be surprised, I always keep my word. Since I said I would give you a reward, I will give you a reward. As for this flame crystal, you can absorb it here. Don't tell other generals that I gave it to you later." After all, it's better not to make such things public. The skeleton general thought for a while and added a sentence at the end. The ghouls and skeleton soldiers below were a little puzzled as to why their boss made such a decision, but they were just subordinates and had no right to ask about the boss's decision.

The two hadn't come back to their senses yet, but since the opportunity was here, they couldn't think too much. Besides, it would be too easy for the other party to control them with their cultivation level. They took the flame crystal thrown to them and started to practice.
