Zheng-Fu started using the protective shield, then sat down to cultivate energy. He slowly absorbed the surrounding fire elemental energy into his body. And he used the Subdue Heaven-Command World Energy Cultivation Technique to convert this fire elemental energy into an energy that suited him, simultaneously circulating it through his body at the same time.

Whoosh!!!

Two days passed...

Ah!!!

"This rock is properly warmed! The feeling of those who soak in warm water is like this. Hmm, really comfortable. Anyway, it took me even two days to adjust my physical condition to withstand the heat from this rock. Even though this rock has the least thermal energy, I spent so much time on it. If it was another one, how much time would I need?"

After Zheng-Fu spent two days adjusting his physical condition, he was able to withstand the heat of the rock he was sitting on without the use of a protective shield. At first, Zheng-Fu thought that he would be able to do it from day one. But the heat of this rock was not constant. After midday until the early evening, its heat rose to a great extent. Including other rocks as well.

However, absorbing the fire elemental energy into his body caused Zheng-Fu's energy realm to have latent fire elemental energy, which allowed Zheng-Fu to resist a bit more heat energy.

"It's not easy for me to be able to withstand this high heat. Even though I don't have to use a protective shield anymore, I can still feel the heat burning my skin. Therefore, I must adjust my physical condition to become more accustomed to this heat and absorb more fire elemental energy. Then, I'd rather eat a Rainbow Mushroom, of which I've already taken one bite!"

Ngm!!! Ngm!!! Ngm!!!

Gulp!!!

Wooooooosh!!!

Booooom!!!

Finishing speaking, Zheng-Fu took the Rainbow Mushroom out of his dimensional ring, then ate it and swallowed it down. And in an instant, a huge wave of energy from the Rainbow Mushroom erupted through his body. But because this place was not a gravity field that accelerated the absorption, the effect of the Rainbow Mushroom was gradual. This freed Zheng-Fu from having to bear the heavy burden of absorbing, and he did not need anyone to help him.

Wooooooosh!!!

Three days passed...

Booooom!!!

The fifth level of the Heavenly Golden Core stage!

"Great! I finally managed to advance to a higher energy level. And the effect of Rainbow Mushroom isn't over yet. If this continues, I expect I can raise my energy level to the end of the late fifth level of the Heavenly Golden Core stage. But… it seems that there are two uninvited guests!"

Grrr!!! Grrr!!!

Those two were Fire Chameleon spirit monsters. They came up from the lava pond because they sensed the remnant Rainbow Mushroom energy and came up to look for it. But when they came up, they found Zheng-Fu, who was sitting to cultivate energy.

At first, they did not dare to enter because they wanted to verify Zheng-Fu's energy level. But after Zheng-Fu raised his level and revealed his true energy level, they immediately gained confidence. They thought that just the two of them could defeat Zheng-Fu.

"Let me warn you guys first that if you don't want to die and become my materials, go back down to your lava pond. Otherwise, go to summon many of your comrades because you two alone can't fight me!" Zheng-Fu did not want to waste time on these two Chameleon spirit monsters, so he chased them away. Or if they still wanted to fight him, he told them to summon more of their comrades. Because just these two were not worth the time he would have to waste.

Grrr!!! Grrr!!!

Gkee... gkee... gkee... gkee!!!

As if these Fire Chameleon spirit monsters understood Zheng-Fu's words, one of them let out a loud, long screeching cry before slowly retreating to the edge of the lava pond. Then it used its tail to slam onto the surface of the hot lava behind it.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

Splash! Splash! Bang!!!

The small lava waves rippled up with the slap of that Fire Chameleon spirit monster's tail. And suddenly, under the lava pond, more than twenty shadows slowly floated up before their heads appeared.

Wow!!!

"It's the Fire Chameleon gang! Come together as a gang like this? But that's all right! Come a lot like this, I like it very much. Come in! Let me practice my skills!"

[Traceless Sword Skill]

Whoosh!!! Whoosh!!! Whoosh!!!

When Zheng-Fu finished speaking, he immediately used the Traceless Sword skill. Now he could use the Traceless Sword skill without leaving a trace completely. Because he practiced it until he reached the highest level. Just a little bit more, and he would reach the mastery level, which was the ultimate ability of this skill.

Slash! Slash! Slash! Chop! Chop!

Grrr!!! Grrr!!!

Gkee... gkee... gkee... gkee!!!

Gush!!!

Thud! Thud! Thud!!!

Just a single attack could quickly kill more than five Fire Chameleon spirit monsters. And the killing of their friends caused the rest of them to rage and gather to swarm Zheng-Fu, who was standing on the rock where he used to cultivate energy.

Grrr!!! Grrr!!! Grrr!!! Grrr!!!

Thump!!! Thump!!! Thump!!!

"Come in! Come together, my friends, so that I can finish all of you in one go!"

Zheng-Fu smiled in satisfaction as he saw the Fire Chameleon spirit monsters rushing in together. Because it would allow him to kill them all at once with his Golden Dragon God Sword skill, which now could only use two stances. Actually, Zheng-Fu had practiced it for a while, but this skill consumed too much energy, so he rarely used it. However, the current situation was very suitable for using it.

[Golden Dragon God Sword Skill: Second Stance; Golden Dragon God's Breath]

Phew!!!

Rooooar!!!

Groooaaaan!!!

Booooooom!!!

The Golden Dragon God's Breath stance was a wide-range attack stance. It was, therefore, suitable to be used in a situation where he was surrounded by a lot of enemies, such as a large number of spirit monsters right now.

Grrr!!! Grrr!!! Grrr!!!

Even if the power of the Golden Dragon God's Breath stance was strong, there were still some Fire Chameleon spirit monsters that survived. But they were badly wounded and thought about fleeing down the lava pond. Anyway, Zheng-Fu definitely would not let them go.

[Traceless Sword Skill]

Zing! Zing! Zing!

Slash! Slash! Slash!

Grrr!!! Grrr!!! Grrr!!!

With this final attack, the remaining Fire Chameleon spirit monsters died instantly. None of them could escape. There were twenty-two of these Fire Chameleon spirit monsters, but only fifteen of them had soul crystal balls. The rest of them were only their bodies. Even so, they were still valuable; some of their organs could be used to make weapons and medicines.

"Looks like I need to find a new place to cultivate. Because the Fire Chameleons' blood smell will have to summon other spirit monsters to come here for sure. And if that's the case, maybe I'll have to fight endlessly. But first, I need to collect the bodies and soul crystal balls of these Fire Chameleon spirit monsters!"

Wooooooosh!!!

In the blink of an eye, as Zheng-Fu moved his hand, all of the Fire Chameleon spirit monsters' bodies had already been sucked into the mysterious dimensional space at the center of his chest.

"Well! Go to find another rock to cultivate further."

BOOOOOOOM!!!

Thump!!!

Huh?

Grrr!!!

However, before Zheng-Fu left, the lava pond suddenly exploded again. At the same time, a large shadow figure that was five times bigger than the previous Fire Chameleon spirit monster appeared. This figure was similar to the Fire Chameleon spirit monster, except its scales were shinier and stronger. Also, its energy level was higher.

"Could this one be Fire Chameleon Spirit Monster King? Too bad! This one has the energy level at the third level of the Heavenly Star stage. Right now, my abilities aren't equal to it. If I've to fight it, I don't know if I have a chance to win. Or should I call Hu-Tai-Min to help me?" Zheng-Fu immediately guessed who the spirit monster in front of him was. Because its appearance was exactly the same as the Fire Chameleon spirit monsters that had come up before; the only difference was that its energy level was one stage higher than theirs.

Grrr!!!

The Fire Chameleon Spirit Monster King attempted to threaten Zheng-Fu with the voice and pressure it had. But Zheng-Fu was able to withstand its pressure, so he did not feel any fear.

"Huh! You think I'm scared!? Today, if it's not you, it's me who died! Come in!" After Zheng-Fu pondered for a while, he finally decided to deal with the Fire Chameleon Spirit Monster King. He also wanted to know what level of cultivator he could fight with right now.

Although the Fire Chameleon Spirit Monster King had an energy level at the third level of the Heavenly Star stage, its true abilities were comparable to the fifth level of this stage cultivator. So this was another difficult situation for Zheng-Fu. But it was worth the risk for him.

"Come in!"

[Golden Dragon God Sword Skill: the First Stance; Golden Dragon God Incarnation]

Yaaaaaaak!!!

Roooar!!!

As Zheng-Fu used the first stance of the Golden Dragon God Sword skill, a huge mental Qi figure of the Golden Dragon suddenly appeared behind him. This stance would cause anyone around him to be instantly frightened because they would be pressed by the Golden Dragon God's pressure wave.

Grrr!!!

It worked on the Fire Chameleon Spirit Monster King too. Because it was just a low-rank monster, it could not be compared to the Golden Dragon God. So, it was completely engulfed by the energy and pressure wave of this stance. And, of course, Zheng-Fu did not let such a golden opportunity slip away; he immediately used his four sword skills.

[Traceless Sword Skill]

[Thousand Tricks Sword Skill]

[Moonlight Dragon Sword Skill]

[Asunder Slashing Crescent Moon Sword Skill]

Zing! Zing!

Zing! Zing!

Slash! Slash! Slash! Slash!

Grrr!!!

With the attacks of the four skills, the Fire Chameleon Spirit Monster King broke free from the pressure of the Golden Dragon God. And it realized that it had been tricked by the illusion that Zheng-Fu had created. But before it knew it, it was already seriously injured.

Thump! Thump! Thump!

Grrr!!!

The wounds it received this time made it feel extremely angry and resentful. Its eyes, which were previously black, had now turned red. Moreover, its roar contained a very violent and vengeful psychic killing.

Huh!

"You get angry just by this, Little Lizard!? I still have a lot of fun things to play with you. Don't be so quick to die, Fire Chameleon Spirit Monster King!"

Grrr!!!
