Chapter 125: Going through the portal and staying calm in the face of danger
Bi Yao grabbed Li Yuan, pointed at the words on the stone tablet and said, "It says here that there are dangers lurking behind the portal, so be careful." Li Yuan took a closer look, and sure enough, there were ancient words engraved on the stone tablet. Although he didn't recognize them, he could feel an ancient and mysterious aura.
Bi Yao, relying on the fragmentary knowledge he had learned from ancient texts, guessed and deciphered, "It means that if you pass through this door, you will face even more powerful enemies. You must possess the 'Heart of Red Flame' to remain safe."
"Red Flame Heart?" Li Yuan looked around. "Where is the Red Flame Heart?"
Bi Yao pondered for a moment, her eyes falling on the puppets she had defeated before, "Maybe, it's on them." She quickly walked to a pile of puppet wreckage and searched carefully.
Li Yuan also joined the search.
As time passed, the light of the portal grew brighter and brighter, as if it would disappear at any moment.
At this moment, Bi Yao suddenly exclaimed: "Found it!" She held a red gem in her hand, which emitted a scorching temperature, like a beating heart.
"Is this the Heart of Red Flame?" Li Yuan looked at the gem in Bi Yao's hand, his eyes full of surprise.
Bi Yao nodded, held the Red Flame Heart tightly in her hand, and pulled Li Yuan into the portal together.
There was a flash of bright light, and they arrived at a completely new place.
This place is completely different from the previous world. The air is filled with a pungent smell of sulfur, there are hot black rocks underfoot, huge fireballs fall from the sky like raindrops, and hot magma flows underfoot, like purgatory.
"Be careful!" Li Yuan grabbed Bi Yao and dodged a fireball falling from the sky.
The fireball flew past Bi Yao's shoulder and burned her sleeve. A burning pain came over her, and Bi Yao couldn't help but gasp.
She covered her burned shoulder and her face turned slightly pale.
Before she had time to check her injuries, another huge fireball fell straight towards her at an extremely fast speed, making it impossible to avoid!
Li Yuan's face suddenly changed when he saw this. In a flash, he pulled Bi Yao into his arms and spun around to avoid the fatal blow.
The scorching air wave almost burned Li Yuan's back. He groaned and protected Bi Yao as he landed on the ground.
"Yaoyao, are you okay?" Li Yuan nervously checked Bi Yao's injuries, but found that she was staring at the fireball that almost took her life.
"Heart of Red Flame..." Bi Yao muttered to himself, a glimmer of understanding in his eyes.
She spread out her palms, and the Red Flame Heart emitted a dazzling light, which actually resonated with the fireball falling from the sky!
This sudden scene amazed the surrounding cultivators.
They originally thought that these two people were ignorant ants who had strayed into this place, but they did not expect that they could actually trigger the power of the Red Flame Heart.
Bi Yao threw the Red Flame Heart into the air without hesitation. The gem turned into a stream of light, shining with the fireballs in the sky.
The originally violent fireball miraculously stopped in the air, and then slowly fell down, surrounding Bi Yao and Li Yuan like a docile firefly.
Before everyone could recover from their shock, huge waves suddenly rolled up in the magma, and a suffocating heat wave hit them in the face.
Huge fire lizards poked their heads out from the magma, their bodies burning with flames. Their scarlet eyes stared at Bi Yao and Li Yuan, and they let out deafening roars.
These fire lizards are very powerful, far superior to the puppets encountered before.
"It seems that the real test has just begun." Bi Yao raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a confident smile.
Li Yuan gripped the sword tightly in his hand, spiritual power surged around him, and his eyes were full of fighting spirit.
"Let them see what true power is!" He turned to look at Bi Yao, but found that she was staring into the distance with a barely perceptible solemnity in her eyes.
"What's wrong?" Li Yuan followed her gaze and saw a huge shadow slowly emerging from the depths of the magma...
"What is that?" Bi Yao whispered, "Something scarier than a salamander..."
Bi Yao and Li Yuan stood back to back, watching the surrounding fire lizards vigilantly.
These monsters are huge in size, with flames burning all over their bodies, and their scarlet eyes are full of bloodthirsty desire.
"Hiss—" A fire lizard took the lead in attacking, opened its bloody mouth and spewed out a stream of scorching flames.
Bi Yao and Li Yuan reacted quickly, each holding up a spiritual shield to block the flames.
"Their flames are corrosive!" Li Yuan reminded. He noticed that some tiny cracks had appeared on the shield.
"I'll take the lead and you cover me!" Before Li Yuan finished speaking, he turned into a shadow and rushed towards a fire lizard.
The long sword in his hand flashed with cold light and pierced the fire lizard's eyes.
The fire lizard reacted quickly, sweeping its huge tail across. Li Yuan couldn't dodge in time and was hit hard, falling to the ground.
"Li Yuan!" Bi Yao exclaimed and hurried forward to help him up.
"I'm fine." Li Yuan struggled to stand up, a trace of blood flowing from the corner of his mouth.
"Ahem... These beasts have thick skin and tough flesh, making them difficult to deal with."
Bi Yao looked at the injuries on Li Yuan's body with heartache and gently stroked his face.
"Li Yuan, this injury is nothing." Li Yuan looked into Bi Yao's eyes and said softly, "Yao'er, don't worry, I can still fight." Love flowed between the two.
Bi Yao looked at the fire lizards around him that were eyeing him hungrily, his brain working rapidly.
Suddenly, she thought of a way.
"Li Yuan, you attract their attention, and I will control time!" Li Yuan nodded, and rushed towards the group of fire lizards again, dancing with the sword in his hand, and fighting with the fire lizards.
Bi Yao took a deep breath, formed seals with his hands, and silently recited the mantra.
The flow of time around it began to slow down, and the fire lizard's movements also became sluggish.
"Now!" Bi Yao shouted, and Li Yuan seized the opportunity. The long sword in his hand turned into a stream of light and pierced into the eyes of a fire lizard.
“Roar—” The fire lizard let out a painful roar, and its huge body fell to the ground with a bang.
"Yaoyao, your abilities are truly amazing!" Li Yuan said excitedly.
Bi Yao smiled slightly, but her expression suddenly changed. She grabbed Li Yuan's arm and said, "Be careful!" She felt a powerful aura approaching...
"they……
Seems angry...
"Bi Yao said in a low voice as he looked at the group of fire lizards that were ready to move in the distance.
Seeing their companion fall, the remaining salamanders let out earth-shaking roars, their scarlet eyes burning with even greater rage.
They no longer fought individually, but quickly gathered together, their huge bodies rubbing against each other, the flames on their bodies intertwining and merging to form a huge vortex of fire, sweeping towards Bi Yao and Li Yuan with the momentum of destroying the world.
The surrounding space was distorted by the high temperature, and the air made crackling sounds, as if it was about to be torn apart in the next second.
Bi Yao and Li Yuan were shocked by this powerful force. They understood that this was a life-and-death crisis.
Although the Heart of Red Flame could control a single fireball, it seemed powerless in the face of such a powerful vortex of flames.
Fine beads of sweat oozed from Bi Yao's forehead. She held Li Yuan's hand tightly, feeling the warmth of his palm, trying to draw a little strength from him.
"Li Yuan, we must find a way to break this vortex!" Bi Yao's voice seemed a little weak in the howling wind, but the determination in her eyes did not diminish in the slightest.
Li Yuan nodded, his eyes sharp as torches as he quickly scanned the surroundings, trying to find a breakthrough.
"Yaoyao, can you still control time?"
"Yes, but the time is limited. It can only last for ten breaths at most." Bi Yao took a deep breath and mobilized the little spiritual power left in his body.
"Ten breaths are enough!" A gleam of light flashed in Li Yuan's eyes, and he suddenly thought of a bold plan.
"Yaoyao, you control the time, I will use 'Nine Heavens Mysterious Thunder' to attack the center of the vortex!"
Nine Heavens Mysterious Thunder is Li Yuan's unique skill. It is extremely powerful, but also consumes a lot of energy. He will not use it easily unless it is absolutely necessary.
But now, they have no choice.
Bi Yao activated time control without hesitation. Everything around him seemed to move in slow motion, and the rotation speed of the flame vortex also dropped suddenly.
Li Yuan seized the precious ten breaths of time, quickly formed seals with his hands, and muttered something.
In an instant, the weather changed, the sky was covered with dark clouds, and thunder rumbled.
Purple lightning streaked across the sky and converged on the tip of Li Yuan's sword, forming a dazzling beam of light.
"Nine Heavens Mysterious Thunder, break!" Li Yuan roared and threw the beam of light in his hand fiercely into the center of the vortex of fire.
With a loud bang, the heaven and earth shook, a gap was blown open in the vortex of fire, and violent energy scattered in all directions.
Just when the two thought the crisis was over, the huge shadow deep in the magma finally emerged completely...
"That……
That is……
" Li Yuan's voice trembled, his eyes filled with fear.
Bi Yao's face turned pale. She clutched Li Yuan's hand tightly and spoke word by word, "Ancient vicious beast... Flame Demon..."
