Peerless War God

Beneath the lake, a Heavenly Fire Dao Sect cultivator shouted excitedly.    

Without saying anything, he swam forward, his face full of excitement.    

Yan Can, who was not far from him, suddenly turned his head. “Where is it?”    

“Over there.”    

The Heavenly Fire Dao Sect cultivator pointed and said in a low voice.    

Yan Can saw that not far ahead, a golden lotus flower was quietly floating, like a blooming flower, waiting for someone to pick it.    

“Good.”    

Yan Can shouted and immediately rushed over.    

This was already the first Undying Flame Crystal they had found, and the harvest was not bad.    

As long as they continued to look, they would definitely find more Undying Flame Crystals. They had come at the right time, and they had really earned it.    

He was extremely excited and wished he could shout, but he held back.    

Soon, Yan Can obtained the second Undying Flame Crystal.    

Not far away, this scene also fell into the eyes of Fairy Ice Phoenix and Zhou Kuang.    

“We found another one. Heh, looks like our luck is not bad. We didn’t come in vain.”    

Zhou Kuang laughed.    

This was the second Undying Flame Crystal they had found, which meant that their Demon God Hall could also get a piece. This was very good.    

After all, they had risked their lives to come here together, so they couldn’t come in vain.    

Fairy Ice Phoenix pinched her chin and thoughtfully said, “Looks like there are no Undying Flame Crystals nearby. We have to continue deeper into the lake, but…”    

Zhou Kuang was a bit surprised. “Martial Nephew, what are you worried about?”    

The Ice Phoenix’s beautiful brows furrowed as she said, “The deeper we go, the fiercer the power of the flames beneath the lake. Even I am on the verge of being unable to hold on. The other cultivators will probably find it even more difficult and have no choice but to give up and continue downwards.”    

When Zhou Kuang heard this, his expression turned ugly. He nodded and said, “That’s right.”    

As he spoke, a rogue cultivator in the distance cried out in pain, “Hot, so hot, I’m going to be cooked! Ahh!”    

This person’s miserable howls ignored everything else as he desperately floated upwards.    

The further he went, the better he felt. He finally left the lake and escaped.    

As this person gave up, another person couldn’t hold on any longer and chose to give up.    

To them, rather than dying beneath the lake and being burned to death, it was better to give up and escape first.    

Even if they couldn’t use the Undying Flame Crystals to exchange for freedom, at least they were still alive and had managed to keep their lives.    

When Zhou Kuang saw this, he cursed, “Useless things, you can’t hold on for so long. Hmph.”    

The Ice Phoenix stopped him. “Alright, Elder Kuang.”    

Zhou Kuang’s fury surged as he clamored, “Don’t stop me, these trash are useless. Why not just kill them? Once and for all, so as to avoid any future troubles.”    

The Ice Phoenix Fairy shook her head and said, “You can’t be too ruthless in everything. You have to leave some hope for others to continue working for you.”    

"This..."    

Zhou Kuang was stunned for a moment and was speechless for a moment.    

The Ice Phoenix Fairy exhaled and said indifferently, "Alright, Old Kuang, let's continue down and find the Undying Flame Crystals."    

"Yes."    

Zhou Kuang replied.    

Immediately, the two of them accelerated and sank down towards the bottom of the lava lake.    

On the other side, Chen Xiao's eyes widened as he noticed a black shadow approaching from below. His face was filled with vigilance as he prepared himself for battle.    

"There's no need to make a big fuss. Someone couldn't hold on any longer and wanted to escape."    

Xi Luo said.    

"It's like this."    

Chen Xiao was shocked as he stared at the other party.    

As Xi Luo had said, a cultivator's face was flushed red, like a roasted crab. His expression was filled with struggle and pain as he desperately tried to float upwards, wanting to escape from this place.    

Soon, this person passed by Chen Xiao and completely ignored him, directly escaping.    

Chen Xiao saw this and paused for a moment, "This person is one of the itinerant cultivators who has submitted to the Ice Phoenix."    

"Yes, it seems like he couldn't hold on any longer due to his lack of strength."    

Xi Luo replied.    

Chen Xiao's face was filled with relief as he said, "That's right. If not for the protection of the Ghost Fire, I probably wouldn't have been able to hold on. Fortunately, the Ghost Fire has a strong resistance to the lava lake's fire power, allowing me to swim with ease."    

"This is your chance, don't miss it." Xi Luo said.    

"Yes, let's go. Let's continue to go down."    

"Alright."    

Without any hesitation, the two of them continued to go down, carefully observing their surroundings.    

At the bottom of the underground lake, as the depth of the lake sank deeper and deeper, the scorching heat became more and more terrifying. In addition to the incomparably terrifying pressure, even experts at the third stage of the Three Tribulations of Immortality found it extremely difficult.    

"Not good, I can't hold on any longer. It's too hot."    

"Me too. I feel like my body is about to melt. This is truly terrifying heat. And this is not the end yet. If we continue, it will be troublesome."    

At this moment, the two cultivators of the Heavenly Fire Sect below anxiously said, their hearts becoming more and more uneasy.    

Even for them, as fire elementalists with high strength in the Heavenly Fire Sect, it was difficult for them to continue.    

The temperature of the lava lake was too high. It was difficult to resist the terrifying high temperature.    

Right now, they were only barely holding on. Once their mana was exhausted, they would be burnt to death.    

Seeing this, Yan Can's eyes narrowed as he transmitted his voice, "You two go up first and wait for an opportunity. You know what to do, right?"    

The two of them looked at each other and felt a chill in their hearts. "Yes, Third Elder, don't worry."    

"En, go."    

The two of them heaved a sigh of relief. Without even turning their heads, they directly floated up and returned to the ground.    

When Sun Xingping saw this, he curiously asked, "Third Elder, you called them to return to the ground first to intercept the other rogue cultivators who have obtained the Undying Flame Crystal?"    

Yan Can's eyes turned cold, and his tone was ice-cold as he said, "What? Do you have any objections?"    

Sun Xingping grinned, his expression cruel as he said indifferently, "No, I just feel that the two of them are not very reliable, and they have less manpower."    

When Yan Can heard this, he pinched his chin and thought for a moment, "That's a bit reasonable. What do you have?"    

"It's very simple. We just need to find a ready-made manpower and let Fairy Ice Phoenix attack together."    

Sun Xingping laughed coldly.    

Yan Can chuckled, "Good boy, you are really shameless. Let's do it this way."    

"Thank you for your praise, Third Elder." Sun Xingping chuckled.    

Immediately, Yan Can no longer paid any attention to the other party and directly transmitted his voice to Fairy Ice Phoenix.    

On the other side, after hearing this, Fairy Ice Phoenix nodded her head, "Alright, that's exactly what I wanted. I will send people to join hands and kill those who escaped."    

As she spoke, Fairy Ice Phoenix transmitted her voice to the group of rogue cultivators, "You, you, and you. Since you can't hold on anymore, then go up. After you go up, listen to the orders of the disciples of the Sky Fire Path."    

These three rogue cultivators that she had named were the weakest.    

After hearing this, they immediately felt as if they had been granted amnesty. They heaved a long sigh of relief, feeling that they had finally found their lives.    

"Yes."    

"Yes."    

"Let's go."    

Very quickly, the three rogue cultivators also ran back to the ground.    

With this, Fairy Ice Phoenix was slightly relieved and considered that everything was safe.
