Jin Nanqing was excited because he found an opportunity to make a great contribution and get promoted quickly. Junior Leopard, on the other hand, was nervous.
As he went deeper and deeper, the surrounding temperature was getting higher and the concentration of the Spiritual Energy of Fire was getting higher and higher.
Originally, this was nothing. For someone like him who cultivated the fire element cultivation method, this place was a treasure land for cultivation. It was a treasure to the extreme, and he couldn't be more happy about it.
However, as he went deeper and deeper, he felt something was wrong. It was not him who felt something was wrong, but the black flame in his Dantian.
Now, this flame had completely integrated with his Internal Qi and transformed his Nine Dragons Heavenly Fire Internal Qi. Although it still looked like the Nine Dragons Heavenly Fire Internal Qi, its power had increased a lot. Junior Leopard didn't dare to use it casually, for fear that he would be exposed if he met someone with good eyesight.
Now, with the constant changes of the Spiritual Energy of Fire, the Mysterious Fire started to become unstable. Without Junior Leopard operating his cultivation method, it automatically absorbed the pure Spiritual Energy of Fire around. The Mysterious Fire was separated into two strands before. One strand was integrated into Junior Leopard's fist intent, and the other strand was inserted into his External Elixir.
In a sense, it had suffered a little loss. Of course, this loss had been compensated. As Junior Leopard's Internal Qi became stronger and he stepped into Level Three, the Mysterious Fire was replenished faster and faster. However, it hadn't reached the full state like before.
But now, with the continuous release of the Spiritual Energy of Fire, the pure pneuma was slowly absorbed and integrated by it. In a few moments, it reached the peak state.
This was not enough. After reaching the peak state, the flame absorbed the pneuma even faster, like an endless black hole. Not only that, it also drove the speed at which Junior Leopard's Internal Qi absorbed the Spiritual Energy of Fire. The Nine Dragons Heavenly Fire Technique actually began to operate slowly in Junior Leopard's body.
When Junior Leopard's Internal Qi started to revolve, he felt that something was wrong. He began to forcibly suppress his Internal Qi. Although he achieved some results, the deeper he went, the denser the pneuma was. The faster the Mysterious Fire in his Dantian absorbed it, the stronger its influence on his Internal Qi was. It was harder for Junior Leopard to suppress the circulation of his Internal Qi.
"Brat, what the hell are you doing? Are you tired of living? Are you trying to kill yourself?"
Wang She was the first to discover the abnormality. Although he was in the front, he had been observing the changes of the pneuma around him. Just now, he found that the Spiritual Energy of Fire around him began to gather around Junior Leopard. His extremely sharp intuition told him that Junior Leopard was absorbing the Spiritual Energy of Fire around him. He was shocked and couldn't help but send a message to remind Junior Leopard.
Hearing the mosquito-like voice in his ears, Junior Leopard just smiled bitterly. He didn't say anything and jumped to the front with the help of the Internal Qi in his body.
"How dare you!"
The Military Camp had its own rules, and so did Jianghu.
The reason why Junior Leopard was able to follow Zhao Ting was that he had made a great contribution during the recovery of Zhonghe City. Commander Li Yuan thought highly of him. In addition, his martial arts were good and he had reached Level Three. Therefore, no one in the Military Camp could compete with him.
Therefore, he brought a group of people from the Wu Family to follow behind Zhao Ting. The people in the Military Camp had nothing to say.
However, when he used his body movement, not only did he surpass Zhao Ting, but he also surpassed the four Bone-Forging Realm experts from the Mingyi School and Tian Long Taoism. This was really unreasonable. The four Bone-Forging Realm experts in front of him wouldn't put a kid in their eyes. Almost at the same time, they raised their hands and waved at Junior Leopard.
These Bone-Forging Realm experts had the power of thousands of kilograms in a wave of their hands. They had no reason to be lenient to this arrogant kid. When the four palms were about to hit, Wang She shouted coldly.
"Stop!"
The four palms stopped in mid-air and then retracted. Junior Leopard's figure had already flashed to Wang She's side.
"Chief!"
"I asked him to come here!" Wang She said, "The roads in the underground fire vein are complicated. I need someone to explore the way in front. Kid, you go first. If you encounter any special situation, come back and report to me!"
"Yes, sir!" Junior Leopard nodded fiercely. He knew that Wang She was looking for an excuse to leave alone to solve the problem. He didn't dare to delay and suddenly sped up. After a few leaps, he disappeared in front of everyone.
Both Jin Nanqing and Zhao Ting wanted to say something, but they couldn't.
At this time, the only one who could make the decision was Wang She. Wang She was a rare Level Eight expert in the world. They didn't have the guts to question his decision. In their opinion, it was a decision to send Junior Leopard to his death.
The only thing he could do was to pray for him in his heart, hoping that he would be lucky enough not to die in the underground fire vein. "Thank you, Junior Leopard, for being so fast that he won't die in the underground fire vein."
Junior Leopard ran out alone. He used his body movements to run forward. In general, the underground fire vein was a huge underground passageway that led directly to the underground rock flows. This passageway was naturally formed. It was very likely that there was an active volcanic crater here tens of thousands of years ago or even hundreds of thousands of years ago. That was why such a passageway was formed.
However, this passageway had been covered by the city on the ground for thousands of years. No one knew how the Sect of Flame knew about it. They even found this place and opened this passageway.
Similarly, no one knew how deep this passageway was and how deep it led to. In addition, they were afraid of being ambushed. Therefore, when Wang She and his group entered, they didn't move fast. It could even be said that they were a little cautious. After all, the people of the Sect of Flame had been in there for 10 days or half a month. Such a long time was enough for them to set up an inescapable net and a death trap.
However, Junior Leopard didn't worry about this. Even if there was a trap, it was not prepared for him. Moreover, he didn't really go to the front to explore the way as Wang She said. He wanted to find a hidden place to solve the problem in his body.
In the underground fire vein, in addition to the main passageway whose thickest part was more than 100 feet, the thinnest part was 30 feet, and the height was 30 feet, there were many branch passageways on the side of the main passageway. These passageways were like small doors on the main passageway, leading to an unknown destination. However, Junior Leopard believed that these passageways led to the underground rock flows in the end.
However, because these passageways were too narrow, most of them could only allow one person to pass through. The bigger passageways could only accommodate two or three people. There were also some small passageways that adults couldn't enter at all.
Those who were able to enter Zhonghe City alive were not fools. Naturally, they would not be stupid enough to crawl into such a small passageway. If they were to encounter trouble, they would not be able to advance or retreat. They could only wait for death like a fool. Why bother?
Junior Leopard's target was these small caves because the main passageway was descending in a spiral shape. This was also something that puzzled Junior Leopard. Based on the volcanic crater of tens of thousands of years ago, the magma should flow in a straight line. How could it turn into a big spiral shape? Did they think it was a spiral escalator in a skyscraper?
Of course, this passageway was not a spiral escalator. It was this structure that gave Junior Leopard an opportunity. After leaving the group of people behind him far away and confirming that they couldn't see him, he flashed and crawled into a small branch passageway next to the passageway.
Although this passageway was not as big as the main passageway, it was not small. Although it was less than 10 feet wide, it was almost the same and about two meters high. Junior Leopard was a teenager. Such height and width were enough for him to move and dodge when he encountered danger.
Like the main passageway, this passageway was not straight forward, but curved with an arc. On the surrounding walls, there were some smaller branch passageways, some of which could also allow Junior Leopard to crawl into.
Junior Leopard naturally wouldn't be stupid enough to crawl into those passageways. God knows if he would get lost if he crawled left and right. However, after running for about three or four miles in this passageway, he felt that the Internal Qi in his body seemed to be stimulated by something. It circulated faster and faster, so he quickly stopped. He couldn't care about anything else and began to regulate his breathing. At the same time, in order to prevent it from happening, he opened his Fiery Eyes.
The surrounding temperature was already very high. Using the standard of his previous life, it had almost reached 60 degrees Celsius. This was unbearable in his previous life. However, now was not his previous life.
As he sat down to regulate his breathing, the Mysterious Fire in the depths of his Dantian seemed to be injected with chicken blood. It suddenly jumped up and the speed of absorbing the Spiritual Energy of Fire increased several times.
"F * ck, this won't do. If this goes on, my Dantian will explode!"
The more Spiritual Energy of Fire he absorbed, the more his Dantian swelled. It was like a balloon that was filled with air. It was still inflating and looked like it was about to explode.
This was the automatic operation of the Mysterious Fire. Junior Leopard couldn't control it at all. At the same time, Junior Leopard found that he couldn't control not only his Dantian, but also his External Elixir. It was also absorbing the surrounding Spiritual Energy of Fire, but it was not as obvious as the Mysterious Fire in his Dantian.
"I'm doomed!"
Junior Leopard's Dantian swelled more and more. He felt as if something wanted to be released. He couldn't maintain his original sitting posture anymore. He suddenly jumped up and shook his arms. The dark red Internal Breath came out of his body and then shrank back. Junior Leopard's body moved and he started to practice his punching skill.
Under such circumstances, once the Thirteen Punches of Desolation was practiced, its power reached its peak. The Spiritual Energy of Fire that had nowhere to be released was naturally shot out. His Dantian felt relaxed.
Of course, this relaxation was relative. The Mysterious Fire jumped faster and faster. The speed of using punching skill to shoot out the excess Spiritual Energy of Fire gradually couldn't keep up with the speed of his absorption. The only thing Junior Leopard could do was to increase the speed of his punches and the speed of his Internal Qi circulation. In this way, the passageway was doomed. There was almost no suspense. Within a few breaths, the passageway collapsed.
