C29 Underground Flame Lake and Mysterious Palaces

In the stone room, Su Jue meditated for a while. In the three consecutive battles just now, although the conclusion was extremely quick, it had consumed a lot of his true essence.

Especially the last battle of momentum.

This seemingly simple battle of auras was actually incomparably dangerous, and it consumed a tremendous amount of mental energy.

But just one Situ Leng was not enough to waste all of his energy.

Very quickly, Su Jue woke up from his meditation.

With the appearance of the compass in his hand, the power of the Earth Spirit Rune spread throughout his body, and in the next moment, Su Jue's figure disappeared from the stone room.

"The temperature is so high."

As he continued to sink, Su Jue could clearly feel the surrounding temperature increase.

An hour later, Su Jue only felt his body go blank as he landed on top of a huge black boulder.

Sweat dripped down his chin.

"Zi la."

Su Jue lowered his head and saw that below the boulder was a lava lake with a circumference of thirty meters. There was a gap at the bottom of the lake, and waves of lava was flowing east-west from the hole in the lake.

"It is indeed a lava flow, no wonder there is such terrifying fire Yuan Power in the large hall above."

Jumping off the boulder, Su Jue landed near the lava flow as he carefully observed the walls of the narrow river.

The stone walls near the lava flow must have undergone the refinement of fire elemental energy from countless faces. It was likely that there were some ores contained within.

Following the flow of the lava, Su Jue headed west. Finally, he found a strange rock at the bottom of a cliff.

It was a sparkling and translucent red rock. It was only the size of a palm, but its outline was distinct.

"Flame Star Rock Madman. It should be around three pounds heavy, or at least half a kilogram worth of Flame Star Stones. If it's only used for normal Fine Iron weapons, there should be at least a hundred."

A Flaming Star Stone Mine could be refined into Flaming Star Stones, and what Su Jue currently lacked were these materials. This was because he had reached an agreement with the Monkey Clan to use weapons to exchange for Monkey Wine.

Su Jue took out a Flame Star Rock Madman and continued his search.

This path that flowed along the lava seemed to have no end. After walking for a good five kilometers, Su Jue's front was still completely dark.

A ten catty Fiery Star Stone mine!

But that was still not enough. Su Jue needed more.

"If only there was a small piece of it, the Flaming Star Meteoric Iron would be great."

Su Jue knew that this was an extravagant hope, but it was not impossible.

Fortunately, Su Jue already had the body of the Flame God, so he did not fear heat. If it was anyone else, they would have already used up all their True Essence and exhausted their entire body.

"Boom!"

Right at this moment, a black cloud rose in front of him, bringing about a loud sound at the same time. A large magma lake that was around three hundred meters in radius appeared before Su Jue.

This black cloud was formed from the explosive power of the fire cloud after it had gathered too much fire energy.

"Why is there such a large magma lake here? Moreover, what's in the middle …"

When the black clouds dispersed, Su Jue could faintly see a floating palace in the middle of the lava lake. This palace was not big, but it was extremely strange.

Su Jue was suspicious, he immediately walked towards the lava lake. When he reached the shore, the appearance of the palace became even clearer.

"This should be a palace protected by a formation. It seems like no one lives here and I wonder why it is here."

In Su Jue's previous life, he had done some research into formations so he could clearly tell that the formations around the palace were sealed and not only that, it was completely sealed.

"It's a pity that we're at least 1000 feet away from the palace. With my current cultivation, I won't be able to cross such a great distance. If I were to fall into this magma lake, I'm afraid the odds are against me."

Since he was unable to explore further now, Su Jue decided to not look anymore and continued to search for the Flame Star Rock mine.

As expected, there were a lot of Flame Star Stone mines near the magma lake.

"It seems that the closer we get to this magma lake, the better the quality of the Flaming Star Ore is. Perhaps there's some Flaming Star Meteoric Iron underneath this magma lake.

When refining, one only needed to throw a Flaming Star Meteoric Iron star device of the third stage or above. If used to refine all of them with Flaming Star Meteoric Iron, one could still refine a top-grade Star Soldier.

"I wonder how long my Black Turtle Armor can hold on for?"

In order to obtain the Flaming Star Meteorite Iron, Su Jue planned to stake everything.

With the added body of the Black Turtle Armor, Su Jue drilled into the magma lake.

"Crack."

In a moment, the Black Turtle Armor broke and at the same time, the compass transformed from the Earth Spirit Rune on Su Jue's wrist started to spin.

"There is indeed something good."

Following the direction pointed by the compass, Su Jue quickly found a black metal piece.

It was called a piece of iron because it was very thin, only the length of a thumb and very small.

"Yan Xing Yun Tie, it's you."

This thing was precisely the Flaming Star Meteoric Iron. Although it wasn't a lot, it was already very good for Su Jue.

"Crack."

When the second layer of Black Turtle Armor broke, Su Jue's heart congealed. In less than three breaths of time, the Black Turtle Armor had actually broken through two levels.

However, at this moment, the compass began to revolve crazily once again, emitting a white light.

This was the first time Su Jue saw the compass light up, proving that there were better treasures.

"What would it be? Would it be a large piece of Flaming Star Meteoric Iron, or would it be the Flaming Star Cloud Mother?"

Su Jue looked down, and all he could see was fiery red lava.

The third floor was shattered.

"No, I have to give up."

Su Jue gave up his search and scuttled to the surface of the lake, crawling into the darkness.

"Crack!"

Just when Su Jue's feet left the last layer of the lava lake, the Black Turtle Armor broke.

"Less than five breaths of time, how hasty."

Although he was a bit disappointed, he was even more excited because as long as he knew that there was a treasure here, he would have a chance.

"This place is so damn hot."

Just as Su Jue landed on the shore, a voice suddenly came out from afar. Su Jue looked towards the opposite side of the lake and saw that there was another entrance.

"So there's another entrance."

Su Jue anxiously retreated to the side of the stone wall and used the stone wall to hide his body.

In the distance, two men in black slowly walked out of the small hole. Then, they both flew out and landed outside of the palace at the same time.

"Soaring Speed, Earth Fiend Realm!"

Su Jue became even more vigilant. A practitioner of Earth Fiend Realm had high inspiration, and if she was not careful she would be discovered.

boom boom boom *

A huge explosion rang out. The two of them continued to use their enormous formation, but it was in vain. It seemed that the palace was not damaged in the slightest.

"Sure enough, this thing cannot be relied on brute force." One of them with a short stature said.

"It's been a year. We've tried to use up the power of this formation, but this formation is able to absorb fire elemental energy from the magma and is self-sufficient. What should we do now?"

"Didn't that person say that only those with a high level of fire true essence could open this array formation? But, where would the descendants of the Flame Guards go?"

The tone of the two was extremely Ancestral Sang, at this time, the tall man looked towards Su Jue's direction, his eyes revealing a look of doubt.

"What's wrong?" the short man asked.

"I'm fine." The tall one shook his head.

Su Jue's heart tightened, and inwardly rejoiced that he was not discovered. Even though he was arrogant, he knew that with his current strength, there was absolutely no chance of meeting a Earth Fiend Realm Ranker.

After a while, the two of them had left the place and Su Jue slowly appeared.

"It seems like it's not as if no one knows about this place. Just what is the Flame Guard descendant that these two fellows are referring to?" Su Jue secretly kept it in mind.

There weren't many Earth Fiend Realm warriors in the Tianwu City, and two of them had appeared just now. It was obvious that this palace had a very bold background.

After looking around to make sure that there were no more Flame Star Stones nearby, he sat down cross-legged and began to cultivate.

The fire elemental energy here was countless times richer than in the Sky Fire Qi Refining Hall. It was the best place for cultivation.

However, Su Jue did not circulate the Flame God Incantation. Instead, he started to cultivate the ninety-nine and eighty-one stages of Stacked Fire Seal.

The ninety-nine to ninety-eight stages of Stacked Fire Seal, was not only an excellent method of refining, but also a method of purifying the Essence in the body.

Now that he had just broken through to the sixth level of the Extreme Mortal Stage, it was obviously not appropriate for him to do so.

The Extreme Mortal Stage was the time to lay the foundation. Even the body of a Deity needed to have a stable foundation.

The fire elemental energy in the air started to gather, forming a gorgeous flame mark.

Swoosh. Swoosh.

His finger quickly slid, and Su Jue created another imprint. After the imprint was formed, the flame imprint became even more complicated, and Su Jue's face also started to flush red.

Although the Stacked Fire Seal seemed to be outside of his body, it was actually his body that possessed the strength.

But Stacked Fire Seal were created by superimposing one layer after another, and each time the superposition of the strength doubled, so it was extremely compatible with Su Jue's body.

This was also the reason why he was unable to cultivate the Stacked Fire Seal to the Great Perfection Stage despite the fact that he was the one who created it.

The tenth Stacked Fire Seal had succeeded.

Right after that was the eleventh stage of Stacked Fire Seal.

A level nine Stacked Fire Seal could refine a level one star weapon, and to refine a level two star weapon, one must reach level twelve.

After the ninth layer, every three levels would form a barrier, requiring an extremely high level of talent and perseverance in order to break through step by step.

Rumble …

Half an hour later, the twelfth Stacked Fire Seal of the three days finally succeeded.

At this moment, the Grand Sun Primordial Flame inside his body had become smaller and more gorgeous. If his previous Grand Sun Primordial Flame was compared to the sun at sunrise, then this would be the sun at noon.

"12 levels is the limit for now. It seems that if I want to continue to break through, I need to break through to the seventh level of the Extreme Mortal Stage. Fortunately, this time, my Zhen Qi has reached its peak state, so breaking through won't be that hard anymore."

He let out a breath of impure air, then stood up and left, returning to the stone room.

Knowing the magma lake underground, Su Jue naturally did not need to continue cultivating here. In the future, he would be able to enter the location of the magma lake at any place.

After leaving the stone room, Su Jue went straight home.

At this time, it was already night. The Tianwu City was brightly lit, and Su Jue could already see the light of fire in his courtyard from afar.

"Fiery light, who is it?"

Although this courtyard house was also owned by the Su Family, it was still a distance away from the residence of Su Jue. When they were near the commoner district, it was impossible for anyone from the Su Family to come here.

"Don't tell me …"

Thinking of this, Su Jue laughed, and increased his speed.

"So beautiful, I've never seen such a beautiful woman in my life."

"Shh, don't be noisy, we're almost there. If I'm not wrong, the beauty is about to take a bath right now."

Before even reaching the house, Su Jue saw a few delinquents climbing over the walls, and sneakily walking towards the house where the light was coming from.

Frowning, Su Jue left with the essence.

Not long later, he saw two hooligans lying outside the window, drooling as they looked in through the window, their hands constantly moving around.

Su Jue's extremely light footsteps did not attract the attention of the two hoodlums in the slightest.

After stealing the holes dug out by the delinquent, Su Jue looked inside the house.

At this moment, a white-clothed girl was undressing with her back to the window. She quickly undid her belt and her long skirt fell down. Fortunately, there was a thin layer of gauze covering her body which was not completely exposed.

Su Jue was startled, he extended his hands and covered the two delinquents' mouths, then suddenly stood up and brought the two of them out of the house.

bang bang bang *

The two hooligans didn't even know who had beaten him up.

"Stop it. If you keep hitting me, I'll be crippled."

Su Jue did not kill them, he only broke the teeth of the two delinquents and threw them into the pit of excrement.

After taking care of the two, Su Jue returned to the courtyard and as he walked, he unknowingly walked to the window.

His eyes couldn't help but shift to the window.

The young girl was already lying in the bath through the window, her hands gently wiping her body.

Her graceful body exuded an endless enticement.

"What a sin." Su Jue's face showed some evil intent, but he did not feel any guilt at all even though he was confessing.

That's right, the woman in the room was indeed his sister-in-law, Ye Xinrou.

However, in Su Jue's eyes, she was even more of a young and upright teenager.

"Huh?" Just as Su Jue was about to lower his shameless gaze to Ye Xinrou's smooth and flat abdomen, a small feather mark caught his attention.

"This imprint …"

Su Jue carefully thought back to what he had seen before. He felt that he had always felt that he had seen it somewhere.

"Damn, this is the seal of the Hundred Spirit Body!"
