The energy within these three Flame Crystals was extremely dense. If he could find a way to dissolve the killing intent within them, they would be considered decent treasures. Lu Xuan temporarily put them away.
Lifting his head to look at the Asura Mountain that he could not see the top of, Lu Xuan continued to climb upwards. However, he had only climbed less than thirty feet when a thick fog suddenly rose around Lu Xuan, tightly surrounding him.
Lu Xuan could not help but be shocked. It was a formation! He did not expect that in addition to the wandering Flame Demons, there would also be a large formation set up everywhere in the Asura Mountain.
This formation had appeared so suddenly. After experiencing the trials of Ten Thousand Formation Mountain, Lu Xuan had not even sensed it before falling into the formation. The Asura Mountain truly lived up to its reputation.
His surroundings were covered by the fog. Even if Lu Xuan pushed his eyesight to the limit, he still could not see more than a foot away from himself. Without any hesitation, Lu Xuan quickly spread out his divine sense, wanting to use it to investigate his surroundings. However, after spreading out his divine sense, Lu Xuan's heart sank. His divine sense, which was extremely powerful, was actually ineffective in this fog!
Under the perception of his divine sense, although the effect was slightly better than the naked eye, he still could not see more than a foot away from himself. Clearly, this fog was not ordinary. There must be something within it that could interfere with divine sense.
"This is a bit tricky," Lu Xuan softly muttered to himself. He could not help but tighten his grip on the Masked Dust Sword. A perception range of one foot was completely useless in a battle of this level. If an attack arrived, it would be extremely dangerous. He had to break the formation as soon as possible!
At this moment, the sound of something breaking through the air suddenly came from Lu Xuan's right!
In the blink of an eye, Lu Xuan's muscles instantly tensed up. The Masked Dust Sword was almost instantly swung to the right. There was a "chi" sound as the sword pierced through flesh. Two slender pieces fell at Lu Xuan's feet.
With a quick glance, Lu Xuan noticed that it was a small blood-red snake. However, Lu Xuan had already cut it in half with his sword. Judging by its color, Lu Xuan could tell that the snake was extremely venomous. This was a volcanic area, so it was very likely that the snake contained fire poison. If one were to be bitten by the snake, the fire poison would invade one's body. It would be difficult for one to survive in this formation, let alone break out of it.
Lu Xuan's vigilance suddenly rose to the maximum. This Asura Mountain was not a harmless training ground. There was the danger of losing one's life at any time. Only by walking out of this kind of life and death experience would one have the capital to become a powerhouse.
But at this moment, a scene that Lu Xuan did not expect occurred. This small snake that Lu Xuan thought was already dead, the half of the snake's corpse actually flew up at an incredible speed. It was not dead yet!
The small snake was like a red bolt of lightning, rapidly rushing towards Lu Xuan's neck. If he was bitten in the throat, even if there was no poison, he would still lose half his life.
At this moment, Lu Xuan was so shocked that even his hair stood on end. Whether it was his sword or his fist, it was already too late. At this critical moment, the Laws around Lu Xuan's body fluctuated. The Laws of Time and the Laws of Space appeared at the same time, forcefully reducing the speed of the small snake's attack. He also increased the distance between him and the small snake to the limit. When the Laws of Space reached a profound level, they could shrink the ground into an inch. Naturally, they could also shrink an inch into a zhang.
Under the support of the two great Laws, Lu Xuan obtained precious time to catch his breath. Immediately after, he coldly spat out a single word, "Seal!"
As soon as the word 'seal' was uttered, the small snake's corpse froze in the air, less than three inches away from Lu Xuan's throat. It was as if time had stopped at this moment. Of course, this was only an illusion. The small snake was only forcefully sealed by Lu Xuan's Divine Seal Talisman. Lu Xuan could feel that the small snake was struggling with all its might. It would probably break free in less than three breaths of time.
However, three breaths of time was more than enough for Lu Xuan. He suddenly punched out, directly hitting the small snake's head. In an instant, blood and flesh splattered everywhere. The small snake was completely smashed into pieces. In order to prevent himself from being poisoned, Lu Xuan took half a step back in time. Otherwise, the small snake's blood would splatter on his body. Since he already knew how powerful the Asura Mountain was, there was no need for him to be too careful.
However, before Lu Xuan could catch his breath, his expression turned cold. He could clearly hear the sound of something tearing through the air. Although the fog could block Lu Xuan's vision and divine sense, it could not block his hearing.
This small snake was already so difficult to deal with and so ferocious. If there were a few more, Lu Xuan did not dare to imagine what would happen. Without the slightest hesitation, Lu Xuan instantly waved the Masked Dust Sword in his hand. Under the circulation of Yuan Power, the longsword pointed towards the sky. Soon after, Lu Xuan's explosive shout rang out, "Glorious Sun!"
Within the Glorious Sun, there were too many things. The Laws of Space, the Laws of Fire, the Laws of Destruction, the Laws of Immortality …
With the Masked Dust Sword as the center, a fiery-red light rapidly spread out in all directions. Wherever the light passed, the surrounding fog was completely annihilated and instantly illuminated the surroundings.
Under the coverage of Lu Xuan's divine sense, everything that was attacking him was sensed by him. He saw scorpions, venomous snakes, centipedes, spiders, toads, and other poisonous creatures crawling out of nowhere. All of them rapidly rushed over. It could be said that all five types of poison were present. Lu Xuan felt his scalp go numb just by looking at them.
This great formation was a little too vicious. It used fog to obscure one's vision and perception, and then used these things that weren't big in size, but were extremely fast and extremely poisonous to attack. It was simply killing people without paying with their lives.
However, even though these things were extremely ferocious, Lu Xuan was no longer afraid of them now that he had lost the opportunity to launch a sneak attack. Once the Glorious Sun was unleashed, all of the poisonous creatures that fell into the light of the Glorious Sun were instantly killed. In order to prevent a situation like the little snake from happening again, Lu Xuan would only stop after completely killing all of them.
At the same time, while the fog was being forced back by the Glorious Sun, Lu Xuan's perception could be spread out. At this time, the tempering in the Myriad Formation Mountain had finally helped Lu Xuan greatly. Just as the Glorious Sun's light was about to fade, Lu Xuan finally deduced the location of the great formation's core. Seeing that the next wave of attacks had yet to arrive, Lu Xuan extended a finger and shouted, "Go!"
With a swoosh, Huo Li controlled the Masked Dust Sword and rapidly shot towards the location that Lu Xuan had pointed. Immediately after, the sword fiercely stabbed down!
Boom!
As dust flew, the fog that had enveloped Lu Xuan disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye. The scene of the Asura Mountain once again fell into Lu Xuan's eyes. The great formation had been broken.
Lu Xuan's consciousness carefully swept the surroundings. When he discovered that there was no danger for the time being, he let out a big sigh of relief. This was simply too dangerous. Now, he had finally experienced the fierceness of the Asura Mountain. At first, he had thought that the Asura Mountain was only guarded by the Flame Demons. Now, it seemed that this was completely wrong. The Asura Mountain was an extremely ferocious place, and the Flame Demons were only the most common tiger blocking the way.
What Ye Guangjian had said before wasn't wrong at all. The Asura Mountain was completely a land of the Asura. For the sake of battle, there was nothing they wouldn't do. Even the Five Poison Array had been used. Who knew what other terrifying things were waiting for him? If he could walk out of this place, Lu Xuan believed that there wouldn't be any difficult environment that he wouldn't be able to endure.
After truly understanding how terrifying the Asura Mountain was, Lu Xuan calmed his mind and restored his condition. Only then did he continue on his journey. Following this, every step he took was extremely cautious.
In reality, this cautiousness was a great help to Lu Xuan. If it wasn't for the fact that he always maintained a strong sense of vigilance and made preparations to deal with all sorts of attacks, he would have died countless times already.
Although the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain was also a place for combat training, it was only faced with all sorts of powerful Demonic Beasts. It could be considered an open spear, but the attacks of the Asura Mountain were completely hidden arrows.
After spending half a month, Lu Xuan finally reached the halfway point of the Asura Mountain with great difficulty. During this time, he was attacked by a large number of Flame Demons and fought fiercely with some powerful Demonic Beasts that were used to the volcanic environment. He was also trapped in a large array, and only after fighting for two days and two nights did he manage to break out.
While the journey was arduous, Lu Xuan was able to sense that the past two weeks of battle had greatly improved him. More importantly, the Evil Qi, which he had been neglecting all this while, had unknowingly increased his soul power. The effects were comparable to consuming several bottles of Purple Sun Pills. Apart from that, he had also gained quite a bit of resistance against the Evil Qi.
This discovery made Lu Xuan feel a little overjoyed. It must be known that many places that were known as danger zones were enveloped in an extremely strong infernal energy all year round. Without the ability to resist the infernal energy, it was impossible to enter. How could using Yuan Power to resist the infernal energy compare to being able to resist the invasion of the infernal energy?
However, happiness was happiness. Now, Lu Xuan was faced with a difficult problem. Because in front of him, there was an extremely strong "roadblock".
This fellow looked similar to a Flame Demon. Apart from being a little bigger, its entire body was blood red. Of course, the color wasn't the most important thing. The most important thing was that this fellow seemed to be a mutated Flame Demon. Apart from inheriting the Flame Demon's innate talent of infinite strength, it also had astonishing speed!
Lu Xuan had fought with it three times already, but each time he returned without any results. It wasn't that he didn't have the strength to defeat it, but if he wanted to defeat it, Lu Xuan would have to pay a heavy price. Serious injuries were certain. In this Asura Mountain, where danger lurked on every side, Lu Xuan didn't dare put himself in danger. It had to be known that the danger halfway up the Asura Mountain was far greater than the danger at the foot of the mountain. Even the strength of ordinary Flame Demons was much stronger than before.
In order to avoid this mutated Flame Demon, Lu Xuan chose to change his position. Although it was extremely dangerous to randomly run around in the Asura Mountain, Lu Xuan wasn't willing to stop here. Moreover, unless he could pass through the Asura Mountain, he wouldn't be able to leave no matter where he was.
