Chapter 228: The Strange Encounter in the Volcano, Feng Zhan vs. Long Hao (1)

“Fire phoenix!” Charm narrowed his beautiful purple eyes as he sized up Feng Zhan. Even though the status of purple-eyed snow foxes among beasts was inferior to that of phoenix races, it was still difficult to say who would emerge victorious if they really fought.

“Let’s go in!” Leng Ruoxue urged, ignoring the sparks flying between the two beasts.

“Master, follow me closely,” Feng Zhan said softly as his gaze turned to Leng Ruoxue.

Leng Ruoxue nodded and slowly walked behind Feng Zhan.

After walking for about an hour, they finally arrived at the center of the volcano.

Leng Ruoxue looked up at the scene in front of her with astonishment. It was really too spectacular. She saw fiery red magma slowly flowing on the walls of the mountain and finally gathered together and flowed into a natural pool. The magma in the pool was like boiling water, bubbling and gushing around non-stop!

“Master, this is the center of the volcano. If there is a fire lotus, it should be here,” Feng Zhan explained. Fire lotuses liked to grow in places with the densest fire element.

“Let’s look for one!” Leng Ruoxue nodded. This area wasn’t small, so she hoped she could find one.

“Then let’s split up and search. Master, be careful,” Feng Zhan said worriedly.

Leng Ruoxue nodded and began looking around.

“Be careful!” Suddenly, Feng Zhan’s exclamation sounded from behind Leng Ruoxue.

Leng Ruoxue instinctively turned her head and saw an ugly fiery red monster rushing at her. She was shocked, and Charm in her arms had already pounced at the monster…

Feng Zhan hurriedly walked to Leng Ruoxue’s side and asked with concern, “Master, are you alright?!”

“I’m fine,” Leng Ruoxue said calmly. She was just shocked. After all, no woman would like something so ugly.

“What is this?” Leng Ruoxue asked curiously. The monster fighting Charm had the exact same head and tail, and it was impossible to distinguish what was what. Its body was more than ten meters long and as thick as a water bucket, and its skin was red but transparent. Moreover, she could vaguely see the blood vessels inside and the liquid flowing slowly in its body.

“It is a fire earth dragon. It is born in magma and eats magma,” Feng Zhan explained to Leng Ruoxue while staring at the two beasts fighting. This fire earth dragon actually had the strength of a holy beast. It was really unbelievable. Fire earth dragons were known to be very weak and having very short lifespans. Could there have been some kind of mutation in this dragon?

“Are you sure?” Leng Ruoxue looked at Feng Zhan doubtfully. Why was this fire earth dragon so strong?

“Yes, it must have mutated. I’ll go help that fox,” Feng Zhan guessed and then flew toward the fire earth dragon.

“What are you doing here?” Charm, who was fighting with the fire earth dragon, asked with slight displeasure when he saw Feng Zhan appear.

“I’m here to help! This is its territory. Even if you’re stronger than it, you won’t be able to show your superiority,” Feng Zhan said very kindly as he released his Southern Spirit Flame.

“Stop arguing. End this quickly!” Leng Ruoxue said helplessly.

Just as she finished speaking, she heard a painful howl coming from the fire earth dragon. Its body was on fire…

“Are you sure your fire is effective?” Charm asked deliberately, not wanting to see this man being too smug.

“Of course. My fire isn’t something that can be devoured by just anything,” Feng Zhan said confidently. Even though fire earth dragons fed on magma, they could also consume flames.

But he was soon dumbfounded!

“How… could this happen?” Feng Zhan muttered in disbelief. His eyes had to be playing tricks on him because the mutated fire earth dragon actually slowly absorbed the flames on its body, and its strength instantly increased by several levels…

“This fire earth dragon is very strange.” Charm was also in disbelief. None of the fire earth dragons he knew were so strange. Moreover, fire earth dragons couldn’t be considered spirit beasts at all. Even at the holy beast level, they were unable to develop intelligence or speak. But this fire earth dragon could actually devour the Southern Spirit Flame, which was abnormal in itself.

“Let me try.” After speaking, Leng Ruoxue directly released the heaven-level spiritual skill Feather of the Fire Phoenix. This fire earth dragon was not afraid of the Phoenix clan’s Southern Spirit Flame. Would it be afraid of her divine flame?

“Master’s flame…” Feng Zhan’s thoughts raced as he looked at the small and cute feather. Although the entire feather was fiery red, on careful look, people would notice that the center of the flame feather was deep purple with the outermost edge golden. Moreover, the temperature was extremely high. Could this be the legendary…

While Feng Zhan was thinking, the small fiery red feather had already begun to disintegrate into countless feathers and entangle the body of the fire earth dragon. Immediately, painful howls resounded from the fire earth dragon…

I wonder if this fire earth dragon can swallow my divine flame as well? Leng Ruoxue couldn’t help thinking. She was really curious. Moreover, she specially added her natal divine flame into the Feather of the Flame Phoenix. She hoped that this fire earth dragon wouldn’t disappoint her!

Unfortunately, the fire earth dragon still disappointed Leng Ruoxue because it only took ten minutes before her divine flame burned it to ashes.

“Huh? What is this?” Leng Ruoxue picked up a fiery red translucent crystal that resembled a diamond from the ashes.

“Master, this is something good! You’re rich!” Feng Zhan said excitedly. Heavens, how can this thing exist in this world? No wonder that fire earth dragon mutated. With this thing around, all fire-attribute spirit beasts would benefit greatly.

“What is this?” Leng Ruoxue’s face was full of question marks. Is this a diamond?

“This is a fire crystal core! Countless fire crystals can be produced as long as it is around. Fire crystals are very important to fire-attribute cultivators,” Feng Zhan explained simply. In his hometown, crystals of various attributes were used to assist cultivation.

“Master, it’s enough to absorb spiritual energy from heaven and earth to cultivate in this dimension. But when you reach a higher dimension, you’ll need crystals of various attributes to assist your cultivation. Uh, it’s a little early to tell you all this now. You’ll understand more when you go to a higher dimension,” Feng Zhan continued.
