Chapter 305 The Crushing of the Lava Mountains
"Kid, you just wait," he said in a low voice, "Once we leave the Weapon Forging Guild, I'll show you..."
He hadn't finished speaking.
Lin Tian suddenly stopped and turned his head to look at him.
I only glanced at it.
Shazima froze.
Those eyes... were calm, deep, and devoid of any emotional fluctuation.
But in that instant of eye contact, Shazima felt as if an invisible hand was gripping her heart.
chill.
A chill ran up my spine to the back of my head.
That's a biological instinctual fear of a higher existence. Like a rabbit facing a tiger, or an insect looking up at an eagle.
By the time Shazima came to her senses, Lin Tian had already walked out the door.
"Boss, are you alright? You're sweating so much..." the attendant beside him asked cautiously.
Shazima then realized that his back was soaked with sweat.
He opened his mouth, as if to say something, but couldn't utter a single word.
......
Outside the Refining Guild, the streets were still bustling with activity.
Celia emerged from the pet space, her wings of light unfurling in the sunlight: "Brother Tian, are we going to the Lava Mountains?"
"Hmm." Lin Tian checked the map and said, "Southeast, 370 kilometers."
"So now we..."
Before she could finish speaking, Lin Tian had already grabbed her wrist.
The next moment, the surrounding scenery began to distort and stretch.
[Flickering].
With Lin Tian's current intelligence, a single blink can teleport him nearly a thousand kilometers.
This distance is enough to jump directly from Starmoon City to the Lava Mountains with some extra space.
But Lin Tian did not teleport directly there.
He was unfamiliar with that area, and it would be too dangerous to teleport into the center of the lava lake rashly.
The first time they appeared, they were in the wilderness about 100 kilometers southeast of Starmoon City.
The second flash occurred as the surrounding temperature noticeably increased, and the outline of a crimson mountain range could be seen in the distance.
With the third flash, they found themselves on the outer ridge of the lava mountain range.
Total time: 15 seconds.
Celia blinked, adjusting to the change in space: "Brother Tian, your skill... is so convenient!"
Lin Tian did not answer, but instead observed his surroundings.
A wave of heat hit us, and the air was thick with the smell of sulfur.
The rocks beneath our feet are dark red, with lava slowly flowing from the crevices.
In the distance, several volcanoes were erupting, black smoke shooting straight into the sky, turning the sky an eerie orange-red.
Boiling lava pools can be seen everywhere in the mountains, with scorching sparks flying as bubbles burst.
Some fire elemental creatures roam in the magma; they have no fixed form, they are simply burning energy bodies.
【Flame Spirit Lv.58】
Lava Spider Lv.60
【Fiery Puppet Lv.62】
The monster levels are generally between 58 and 63, making this a leveling paradise for ordinary players after level 50.
But for Lin Tian...
"Let's go."
He stepped forward, and a semi-transparent magical shield automatically appeared around him.
The surrounding high temperature was kept out, and even the hem of the black robe did not curl up.
Celia unfolded her light wings and flew low behind Lin Tian.
She was enveloped in a layer of shadow energy, which shielded her from the heat.
As soon as we stepped off the ridge, the first wave of monsters appeared.
Six lava spiders emerged from the cracks in the rocks. They were the size of calves, with flames burning on their eight limbs and lava saliva dripping from their mouthparts.
Lava Spider Lv.60 (Elite)
[HP: Approximately 180 million]
They hissed and spewed out a net of fire, trying to trap Lin Tian.
Lin Tian didn't even stop walking.
He merely raised his eyelids slightly.
The Eye of Domination, activated.
There was no light, no oppressive aura, but the six lava spiders suddenly froze.
The next second, the flames in their eyes suddenly went out, all eight limbs went limp at the same time, and their bodies crashed onto the rocks, sending sparks flying.
You have defeated the Lava Spider (Lv.60) and gained experience points...
You have defeated the Lava Spider (Lv.60)...
The system notification sounded six times in a row.
He continued walking forward.
Along the way, they encountered more and more monsters.
Flame spirits floated in droves, blazing golems patrolled with heavy steps, and fiery shark-like creatures occasionally leaped from the lava pools.
Lin Tian wasted no time.
He raised his right hand, palm down.
Myriad phenomena guide the heavens.
Minimum mana cost mode, 1% of maximum mana.
hum-
The air within a 300-meter radius centered on Lin Tian suddenly distorted.
An invisible gravitational field enveloped the entire area, crushing rocks, flattening lava, and forcibly pulling all the monsters toward the center.
Then, squeeze.
Click, click...
The teeth-grinding cracking sound continued incessantly.
The Flame Spirit exploded into sparks, the Blazing Golem was crushed into a metal pancake, and the Lava Spider turned into a pile of charred remains.
You have slain the Flame Spirit (Lv.58)...
You have slain the Fiery Golem (Lv.62)...
You have killed the Lava Shark (Lv.61)...
Experience tips flooded the screen, but Lin Tian's level had already reached level 50 with maximum experience. He stored all these experience points, waiting to unlock them after changing jobs.
After clearing this area, Lin Tian looked into the depths of the mountains.
There, a cone-shaped mountain, larger than any other volcano, stands tall, its summit constantly spewing lava and thick smoke.
That is the core of the lava mountain range—the volcano where Gar is located.
"Hurry up."
Lin Tian grabbed Celia's wrist again, flashed three times in succession, and quickly moved forward along the ridge.
When he encountered steep cliffs, he used the repulsive field of Shinra Tensei to lift himself into the air. When he encountered rivers of lava, he used Stellar Leap to cross them directly.
Twenty minutes later, they stood at the foot of the core volcano.
Looking up from here, the crater is at least two kilometers above the ground.
Lava cascaded down the edge of the mountain pass like a waterfall, forming hundreds of fiery red "streams" on the mountain's surface.
The temperature has risen to a terrifying level.
Ordinary metals would melt directly here, and the air would be so distorted that distant views would be obscured.
Ripples appeared on Lin Tian's magic shield, a sign of the continued impact of the high temperature.
He took out the frost protection potion given to him by Sima Han and drank a bottle.
A cool sensation spread from my throat to my whole body, and a light blue film appeared on my skin.
The surrounding high temperature was immediately isolated, as if jumping from a furnace into an air-conditioned room.
"Wait for me outside," Lin Tian said to Celia. "The environment inside the volcano is too harsh; it would be dangerous for you to go in."
Celia shook her head: "I want to go with Tian-ge. I have Shadow Protection, which allows me to hide in the shadows and avoid the high temperatures."
