Chapter 849: Power Of Spiritual Essence

Earth’s core.

It had an extremely hot environment with magma flowing everywhere.

This was similar to the river of fire described in the depths of hell.

Luo Tian and the other four landed on a huge rock. Looking at the world of magma, his face darkened as he said to himself: “The earth’s core… molten rocks… Based on what Mount Hua’s progenitor said, Devil Monarch Veil should be somewhere around the level of molten rocks. What will appear here at this level though?”

Luo Tian opened up the system interface and didn’t see any alert messages. There weren’t any updates to the quest, rankings, or the usual alert that the system was going to obliterate him in a certain amount of time.

The system interface acted like nothing special had happened.

“It’s so hot!”

“This is the earth’s core?” Fatty Lei flicked off the sweat covering his bald head. The demon Buddha image on the top of his head had turned even redder than usual as if it was about to burst out.

Xuanyuan Yi said: “There aren’t any aura fluctuations in the area so there’s no one around. Boss, what are we doing here?”

“That’s right, what are we supposed to do here?” asked Blindman Liu.

Wild Blade looked at Luo Tian wondering why he had to enter the earth’s core.

It wasn’t just them. Luo Tian also didn’t know what he had to do right now. He glanced around the area and replied: “I really don’t know what I need to do right now but you guys need to be careful. This place is definitely more dangerous than the Geocentric Tower.”

The second part of an ultimate quest is definitely more dangerous than the first part.

Everyone nodded.

Luo Tian lightly exhaled before saying: “Let’s go deeper and take a look.”

Since they were here, they might as well beat this first level.

“Whoosh~!”

Luo Tian’s figure blurred and instantly appeared on another large rock a few hundred meters away. Below the rock was bubbling magma that could easily take a normal person’s life away.

It was still a bit unbearable for a person like him at the Profound God Sovereign 9th rank. If he happens to fall down accidentally, most likely even his bones wouldn’t be left behind.

Everyone just looked at Luo Tian for directions.

Half an hour later.

Luo Tian and the others had gone deeper into the earth’s core. The surrounding area hadn’t changed much. Apart from the heat from the molten magma, there wasn’t anything else.

Luo Tian became depressed, “Why is it like this? Logically, there should be at least some demonic beasts appearing. Could it be that this level is empty and all I have to do is find an exit? It can’t be that easy, can it?”

The system still didn’t give him any alerts.

There were no demonic beasts or humanoids. What’s going on here?

Luo Tian was utterly baffled at this point.

He didn’t continue going forward and paused to think.

Fatty Lei cleared his throat and yelled out: “Is there anyone here?! If there are no humans around, at least have a ghost come out! Your granny! Come out here and let me see anything!”

Luo Tian jumped from the yell, “You stupid fatty, can you lower your damn voice?!”

“Boss, we’ve been here for so long yet there’s nothing here. They have all said that the Geocentric Tower was dangerous but the earth’s core was even more dangerous. But there’s not even a ghost here now so where’s the danger?” Fatty Lei grinned. He was hoping that a bunch of people would come out right now so he would have a good fight. Now that would be fun for him right now.

This was the same thought the other three had.

They were kind of irritated since there weren’t any battles to fight.

They wanted to brave dangers with Luo Tian since this was the excitement they craved for.

Fatty Lei’s scream was like a ghost’s wail that constantly echoed throughout the place. There was still silence and not a breath of aura fluctuation. If there were demonic beasts here, they would certainly be woken up and have killed their way over now.

This meant the place really didn’t have anything.

Luo Tian frowned as he muttered: “This earth’s core is considered the second level while the molten rocks is the third level. If this second level really doesn’t have anything, then we can only search for the exit to the third level.”

Fatty Lei scratched his head, “Boss, could they be underneath the magma?”

“Eh?”

Luo Tian was faintly stunned by those words.

Fatty Lei immediately continued saying: “I’m afraid that even a great perfection Profound God Sovereign expert may not dare to enter the magma recklessly. The exit can’t be located under the magma, right?”

How could they exit this level if the exit was really under the magma?

There was no easy way to go to the third level if that’s the case.

How can they kill Devil Monarch Veil if they can’t go there?

Luo Tian’s expression changed as he said to himself: “We have been paying attention to the surface of the magma and haven’t seen anything. Since they aren’t on the surface, then it’s only logical that they are underneath.”

Luo Tian looked at the magma below and said: “You guys wait here. I’ll go down first.”

“Boss, this is the magma from the earth’s core. Can your cultivation handle it?” Fatty Lei asked with unease.

Luo Tian replied: “I should be able to handle it. Even if I can’t handle it, I should be able to escape with my life. There’s no need for you guys to worry. Without my command, you guys cannot go into it. Uncle Wild Blade, please watch those three for me.”

Wild Blade nodded, “Don’t worry, if you don’t come back, I will bring them all down there to look for you.”

“Huh?”

“You guys…”

Luo Tian was speechless and too lazy to continue speaking nonsense with them. These four guys were people that didn’t care about their lives.

Luo Tian immediately made a thought: “Magma Fire, great perfection level!”

“Plop~, plop~, plop~…”

“Plop~, plop~, plop~…”

“Plop~, plop~, plop~…”

Luo Tian’s body turned into magma before flowing into the magma from the earth’s core.

“Psshhh~…”

A cloud of mist rose up.

The system suddenly gave off a series of alert tones.

“Ding!”

“Your health has decreased by 100 points. Cannot be healed…”

“Your health has decreased by 100 points. Cannot be healed…”

“Your health has decreased by 100 points. Cannot be healed…”

Luo Tian’s health was going down by a hundred points every second which annoyed him. “Damn it, I’m magma and you’re magma. What right do you have to deal damage to this daddy’s life?!”

He did feel a little pain when his health bar was being decreased.

The worst thing about this is that you couldn’t use Healing Art to heal yourself. This place should be similar to those special maps inside the game where you cannot drink any potions or teleport back to the city. You had to find the exit or you end up dying.

Luo Tian kept swimming deeper and deeper down.

It seemed like there was no end to the magma.

As Luo Tian’s health kept dropping every second, he suddenly noticed a golden glow in a certain direction.

“A boss?!”

Luo Tian was startled as he saw a red-browed and red-haired old man sitting on top of a fiery red stone door. There was a golden light around him and was very eye-catching even amongst all the magma.

The old man looked like he was cultivating.

His expression looked like he hadn’t moved in tens of thousands of years. Strands of spiritual essence were constantly being sucked into his nose.

“Could this be the spiritual essence spoken of in Tianxuan Continent’s legend?”

“If an expert from a higher realm is absorbing this power, it definitely is something good! Heehee…”

Luo Tian immediately revealed a sinister smile.
