In the end times, many children bring more blessings. I pick up a goddess every day.

The Rot Root Giant sensed danger... It immediately manipulated the surrounding vines and tree roots... forming a thick barrier... attempting to block the attack of the black sword energy...

"Pfft——!"

However... this time... after Liu Yang's strength increased... the power of the pitch-black slash was even greater than before... the black sword energy easily penetrated the barrier of vines and tree roots like tofu... and fiercely slashed into the body of the Rot Root Giant...

"Roar--!!!"

The Rot Root Giant let out a shrill scream... A massive wound was slashed across its body by the black sword energy... Rotten trees and soil scattered across the ground... Dark green sap gushed out...

But it didn't die immediately... As the master of this forest... it possessed an extremely strong vitality... Its huge single eye flashed red... and it began to frantically absorb the energy of the surrounding plants... The severed roots and vines were rapidly regenerating... and the wounds on its body were slowly healing...

"Want to regenerate? That's not that easy!" Liu Yang's eyes were icy... He wouldn't give the Rot Root Giant any chance to recover...

He charged forward once more... The black sword slashed at the Rot Root Giant's wound like a violent storm... Each strike contained powerful sword energy... continuously widening the Rot Root Giant's wound... preventing it from regenerating...

The Rot Root Giant roared in pain... and waved its arms desperately... trying to knock Liu Yang away... But Liu Yang was too fast... and it couldn't hit him at all...

The battle lasted for nearly a quarter of an hour...

Although the Rot Root Giant's vitality was formidable... it finally succumbed to Liu Yang's ferocious assault... its body grew weaker and weaker... its wounds grew larger and larger... unable to regenerate... the red light of its giant single eye gradually dimmed... and finally went out completely...

"boom!"

The Rot Root Giant's massive body collapsed to the ground with a crash... stirring up a cloud of dust... With its death... the strange tree began to rapidly wither and rot... eventually transforming into a pool of black water... The cocoons hanging from the vines also burst one after another... and falling out... were the remains of wild beasts whose life force had been drained away...

The battle is finally over...

Liu Yang leaned on his black sword... and stood beside the corpse of the Rot Root Giant... breathing heavily... His body was covered in rancid juice and mud... but a triumphant smile appeared on his face...

He could clearly feel... after this arduous battle... his strength had made another qualitative leap... the zhenqi in his body had become more powerful and more condensed... his use of swordsmanship and magic had become more handy... he even felt... he was getting closer and closer to the next realm...

He didn't stay for long... He began searching the open space for the teleportation array leading to the 93rd floor... Soon... he found a teleportation array flashing green light... where the strange tree had originally grown...

Liu Yang walked to the teleportation array... and glanced back at the mutant forest he had conquered... his eyes filled with confidence...

"92rd floor... Cleared!"

Without hesitation, he stepped into the teleportation array... A green light enveloped his body... and teleported him to the next unknown challenge...

...................................

The green teleportation light dissipated... Liu Yang immediately felt an unbearable burning sensation coming towards him... He subconsciously circulated his Qi to protect his entire body... and only then was he able to barely withstand the heat wave...

.........................

"93rd floor... lava purgatory..."

What came into view... was a world like hell...

The sky was dark red... filled with swirling dark clouds... occasionally, golden lightning flashed across the sky... illuminating the scene below... there was no vegetation on the ground... instead, there was flowing magma and exposed, red-hot rocks... the air was filled with a strong smell of sulfur... every breath of it made my lungs burn...

In the distance...huge volcanoes are erupting...black ash falls like raindrops...accompanied by a deafening roar...magma gushes out of the craters...forming huge columns of fire...then flows down the hillside...merging into rivers of blazing lava...

Liu Yang stood on a relatively flat rock... Looking around... He could sense... the extremely dense fire energy here... so dense it was almost materializing... In such an environment... ordinary creatures simply couldn't survive... Only monsters with a strong resistance to fire could survive here...

"It seems... the challenge of this level... mainly comes from flames and high temperatures..." Liu Yang clenched the black sword in his hand... his eyes flashed with excitement... "It's just right... let me see... my strength... in such an environment... to what extent can I exert..."

He didn't act rashly... but instead observed his surroundings first... He discovered... not far away... a narrow stone bridge... spanning between two lava rivers... connecting to a massive rock platform on the opposite side... and in the center of that platform... there seemed to be a teleportation array flashing red light...

"It seems... if I want to clear this level... I must first cross that stone bridge... and reach the platform on the opposite side..." Liu Yang made a mental decision...

He took a deep breath... circulated the Qi in his body... raised his defenses to the maximum... then... he took a step... cautiously walked towards the stone bridge...

He had only taken a few steps when a wave of heat hit him, causing his skin to sting. The rocks on the ground were incredibly hot, and even through his shoes, he could still feel the intense burning sensation.

At this moment... a sharp roar came from the lava river next to it...

Liu Yang suddenly stopped and looked in the direction of the sound. He saw a huge wave suddenly surge up from the surface of the magma river. A huge head covered with red scales emerged from the magma.

It was a lizard-like monster... but far more terrifying than an ordinary lizard... Its body was over ten meters long... covered in hard, lava-like red scales... Its head held two enormous, gleaming yellow eyes... Its mouth was open... revealing rows of sharp, blade-like teeth... and from its mouth continuously spewed hot, sparking air... Its back sprouted a pair of enormous, membranous wings... covered in vein-like markings... and looked as if they would burst into flames at any moment...

"Lava lizards..." Liu Yang recognized this monster... They are mutant creatures that live in magma... They are absolutely immune to fire... Power is good... Let's continue Liu Yang's adventure in the lava purgatory...

......................

"Lava lizards..." Liu Yang recognized these monsters... They were mutant creatures that lived in magma... They were completely immune to fire... They were extremely powerful... They could also spit out high-temperature flames... They were extremely dangerous creatures in this lava purgatory...

As soon as the lava lizard poked its head out... it immediately locked onto Liu Yang, the outsider... It let out a sharp hiss... and flapped its huge wings violently... bringing with it a scorching gust of wind... and swooped down towards Liu Yang...

"Just in time!" Liu Yang's eyes flashed... Instead of retreating... he charged towards the lava lizard...

The black sword in his hand seemed to be affected by the high temperature... The blade turned slightly red... But this did not affect its sharpness at all... Just when the lava lizard's claws were about to grab him... Liu Yang suddenly stepped forward... His body flashed to the side like an arrow...

At the same time... he thrust the black sword in his hand upward... with a sharp sword energy... and slashed towards the lava lizard's soft belly...

"Pfft!"

The black sword pierced the lava lizard's belly scales with pinpoint precision... Dark green blood instantly gushed out... dripping onto the scorching rocks... A sizzling sound emanated... Puffs of white smoke billowed out...

"Roar!" The lava lizard roared in pain... Its massive body paused in the air... before crashing heavily onto the rocks beside the lava river... stirring up a shower of rubble...

But it didn't die... As a powerful creature from the lava purgatory... its vitality was extremely tenacious... It struggled to stand up... and at the same time opened its huge mouth... aimed at Liu Yang... and spewed out a stream of blazing flames...

"firewall!"

Liu Yang reacted extremely quickly... He formed seals with his hands... A thick wall of fire instantly appeared in front of him...

"boom!"

The flames ejected by the lava lizard collided with the wall of fire... creating a massive explosion... The scorching air waves spread in all directions... baking the surrounding rocks even redder...

Liu Yang, taking advantage of the explosion's cover, flashed to the side of the lava lizard. He could see that although the previous sword strike had caused damage to the lava lizard, it wasn't fatal. The wound on its abdomen was healing at a visible speed, and its scales were also growing back.

"It's really hard to deal with..." Liu Yang thought to himself... "I must find its weakness as soon as possible..."

He carefully observed the lava lizard's body... and found that its eyes seemed to be a weak point... Although they were protected by thick scales... they were still more fragile than other parts...

"Let's take a gamble!"
