Chapter 33: Immortal Volcanoes
Chapter 33: Immortal Volcanoes
Jiuxian Mountain is located in the east, which borders the south, the north and Buzhou Mountain. However, the south and the north are just words. Generally speaking, these two places also belong to the Eastern Continent, but they are just in different locations.
According to the strength of the four different calls, Guangchengzi decided to travel to the south first, then to the west, north, and finally return to the east to search.
It’s not that Guangchengzi didn’t want to look in the East first, but the call from the East was the weakest, as if the fate between them was not that deep, and other things were needed to deepen the fate.
In addition, he had learned some principles of inaction in the Bajing Palace and knew that letting nature take its course might be the best answer, so he decided to go far away and look for it first in the south where the call was the strongest.
"But doesn't earth produce gold? Logically, we should go to the west first. Why is the call from the south the strongest?" Guangchengzi had this question in his mind.
However, thinking that the Xuanhuang Zhongde Flag was not found by him on Mount Buzhou, but came out with him in the east, he no longer worried about this issue.
Along the way, Guangchengzi did not deliberately conceal his figure, but just turned into golden light and left behind countless rainbows along the way. He did not care how many immortals and gods were alarmed.
At this moment, Guangchengzi is carrying several treasures. Not to mention a Taiyi Golden Immortal of the same level, even if he meets a Daluo Golden Immortal, he has the confidence to fight with the opponent. Naturally, he does not need to deliberately conceal himself.
It's good to pretend to be a pig and eat the tiger, but if you pretend to be a pig for too long, you will really become a pig. So sometimes it's good to express your feelings.
Otherwise, if you keep hiding here and there all day, what's the point of practicing Taoism? It's better to just find a hole and bury it. This way, there won't be any mistakes.
Guangchengzi sped along at lightning speed, and he didn't know how many clouds and islands he had knocked aside. This was the first time he had been so unrestrained. In addition to excitement, he also felt a sense of relief in his heart, as if an invisible mountain had been quietly lifted off his shoulders.
"No wonder they say we need to have a balance between tension and relaxation. I was so nervous before, so it's good to relax occasionally. Who cares about the demeanor of a god? I am a god now. The demeanor I have is the demeanor of a god! This is the meaning of practicing Taoism!"
Guangchengzi seemed to have once again turned into the young boy he was in his previous life, doing things recklessly and without any trace of godly demeanor.
But he didn't care and continued to do what he wanted to do.
The further south they went, the hotter the air became, and volcanoes began to appear gradually in the many sacred mountains on earth.
Some volcanoes even connected together to form a large volcano group, with thick smoke and dust. The terrifyingly high temperature at the mountain pass even caused the space to begin to distort slightly.
Occasionally, during an eruption, the overwhelming magma would even cover the sky, and then suddenly fall to the ground, turning into an endless ocean of magma, fiery red and hot, which was daunting.
However, some clouds had magical properties. They were not melted by the eruption of magma. Instead, they turned into pieces of magma clouds, slowly flying in all directions. Occasionally, they moved, and rolling magma turned into rain, which was extremely terrifying.
Any creature that can survive in such an environment must be extremely heat-resistant. If they were not heat-resistant, they would have been burned to death long ago.
Along the way, Guangchengzi saw countless races coexisting with this volcano, each of them had a unique harmony. However, the deeper they went, the rarer these races became, and they even began to gradually disappear.
Seeing this scene, Guangchengzi was also amazed at the boundless power between heaven and earth. Even he could not do this. If it was Yuanshi Tianzun who took action, there might be a slight possibility, but the certainty was not great.
However, he came here to find the treasure corresponding to the Xuanhuang Zhongde Flag, so after exclaiming for a while, he directly broke into the deepest part of the land where no life was left.
Boom boom boom!
It was terrifying enough when viewed from the outside, but it was not until he stepped inside that Guangchengzi realized that there is always a mountain higher than yours.
One of the volcanoes suddenly erupted as he passed by, and countless solar fires turned into magma and shot up into the sky. Wherever it passed, even the space was burned into countless dark holes, which could almost destroy everything in the world. Even Guangchengzi had to leave quickly, because these volcanoes were created by heaven and earth, and possessed extremely great divine power, which he could not easily resist.
And even if he could resist, there were still countless volcanoes waiting to erupt. Would he have to use up his mana to quell them one by one? He didn't have the time.
"No wonder Yuan Feng, the leader of the Phoenix Clan among the three clans of the Creation, swore to suppress the Immortal Volcano in the south forever. The Heavenly Dao could even wipe out the bloodshed caused by the Phoenix Clan. Now it seems that it is not that much."
Guangchengzi looked at the magma column of the Sun God Fire with shock. He could feel that if any Golden Immortal dared to stand in front of this magma column, no matter how much immortal gold energy he had in his body, he would be burned alive. Death would be the only outcome, there would be no second possibility.
If Taiyi Jinxian did not take any precautions and stood in front of the enemy, he would also be seriously injured and close to death like Jinguang Xian.
This is a group of volcanoes that have been suppressed. If it were the immortal volcano in its heyday, Guangchengzi could not imagine how terrifying its power would be.
The fact that Guangchengzi was able to climb Mount Buzhou but had to avoid the Immortal Volcano does not mean that Mount Buzhou is inferior to the Immortal Volcano, but that the responsibilities of the two are different.
Mount Buzhou represents protection and support, while the immortal volcano represents eruption and explosion.
The former is equivalent to a giant tree. You can climb it at will, but the tree is too high. The higher you climb, the harder it is to breathe. If you try to be brave and end up falling to death, that is your problem, not that the giant tree is deliberately making things difficult for you.
The latter is equivalent to a ferocious tiger that hurts people wantonly, killing and biting anyone it sees. Anyone who dares to approach it will be slaughtered by it, and it may even take the initiative to approach you.
One is passive, the other is active, the danger levels are simply not on the same level.
A giant tree is naturally stronger than a tiger. After all, even if the tiger dies, the giant tree will still be green and evergreen. If it falls down, there is no telling how many tigers will be killed. But if people were asked to choose, I am afraid everyone would choose the giant tree instead of the tiger.
Although the giant tree is very tall, it can provide a place for people to rest, and they can even cut down its branches and pick its fruits to feed themselves. But if anyone dares to do anything unruly to a tiger, he is seeking death.
But looking at this column of Sun God Fire magma, Guang Chengzi had an idea: "Endless Sun God Fire is spreading on the Sun Star, and the essence of the Sun God Fire is the gathering of the sun's starlight. Apart from the Sun Star, I'm afraid that only the Undying Volcano has the Sun God Fire. Can I use the Three Lights Gourd to absorb this Sun God Fire and turn it into Sunlight Divine Water?"
Guangchengzi thought this was very possible, and immediately took out a three-colored gourd with rippling water and pointed it at the magma column of the Sun God Fire.
With a slight shake, a finger-long stream of Sun God Fire was immediately drawn out, continuing like a continuous silk thread.
The Sanguan Gourd accepted all that came to it and continuously absorbed the divine fire of the sun. Through the connection between the two, Guangchengzi could feel that drop after drop of divine water of sunlight was emerging from the Sanguan Gourd, and he was overjoyed.
"It seems my speculation was correct! I can use this opportunity to replenish my essence!"
Guangchengzi immediately opened his mouth and sucked the Sunlight Divine Water inside into his stomach.
At this moment, he has become a Taiyi Golden Immortal, and this amount of divine water cannot hurt him. Once it falls into his stomach, it will be immediately refined into its original source.
As drop after drop of the Sunlight Divine Water was refined, the Yin-Yang Cloud hidden in Guangchengzi's crown began to roll continuously. It remained thirty-three feet in size, but the black and white colors within it became deeper and deeper, and its connection with the Yin-Yang Avenue began to deepen.
