These demonic beasts were abnormally strong, and it was not a problem for them to fight one against ten.
However, Wutian could tell at a glance that the wounds on his body were caused by Luo Shenzi's Luoshen Zithern and the power of fire of the Fire Cicadas.
These two were too terrifying. According to the reports of the five demonic beasts, the other four companions were basically killed by the two of them!
The rest could only assist from the side and were of no help at all.
In this attack, another twelve disciples of the sect were sacrificed, and they were all direct disciples. Strangely, the nine direct disciples were only lightly injured and did not have any major problems.
Then, other than Luo Shenzi and Yan Zhaoshen, the others were severely injured.
The next three days were peaceful, and the peak was peaceful. The five injured demonic beasts had basically recovered with the help of the astral fire.
In three days, Wutian had already walked a hundred miles, and his physical defense had increased once again to 97,500 kilograms!
He was only 1,500 kilograms away from the perfect state.
Early in the morning, there were shouts at the foot of the mountain. After three days of rest, Luo Shenzi and the rest launched their attack once again.
However, this time, the Fire Jiao did not send any demonic beasts to intercept them. Instead, it personally led the nine ancient remnant beasts, including the Barbaric Fire Bull and the Fire Fox, to the peak and waited for their arrival.
These nine ancient remnant beasts were all existences that had surpassed the extreme state and were extremely powerful!
Whoosh whoosh!!!
Dozens of figures rushed out from the bottom of the cliff and landed on the peak one after another. However, when they saw the three Fire Jiao that were as large as mountains and the other terrifying ancient remnant beasts, their expressions changed and beads of sweat appeared on their foreheads.
They clenched their fists so tightly that their palms turned white. Their eyes were filled with anger and killing intent. They had cut through thousands of miles of obstacles and encountered countless beasts without suffering any casualties. But now, they had lost twenty-one of their fellow disciples in just a few days.
A sharp-eyed direct disciple saw Wutian and Senior Brother Yan Yangzi sitting cross-legged on the ground and said in surprise, "Hey, isn't that Junior Brother and Senior Brother Yan Yangzi? Why are they there?"
"How are they so fast?"
The group of people was very puzzled. The two of them were clearly the last to arrive here, yet they were the first to arrive. It seemed like they had been here for more than a day or two.
"What the hell are those two doing? You clearly know that we are being attacked, but you don't know how to help. You just watch your fellow disciples die. Don't tell me you want us to be killed by these beasts so that no one will compete with them for the origin of the astral fire? "
"I didn't expect the two of them to be so vicious, especially Little Junior Brother. To think that we took such good care of him before. In the end, he's just an ingrate."
"That's right. Twenty-one of our fellow disciples were sacrificed in vain just like that. Yet, they still have the mood to cultivate. Their conscience has been eaten by dogs."
Seeing that the two of them were indifferent, the group of people felt very uncomfortable and indignant.
"Human, if you are only here to cultivate, then you are welcome. If you are here for the Astral Fire, then please leave immediately. You are not welcome here." The Fire Jiao transmitted his voice, and everyone present could hear it.
However, the Fire Jiao's attention was completely focused on Luo Shenzi and the Fire Cicadas, while the others were being watched by the other eight Descendants.
"Hmph! You killed twenty-one of our fellow disciples. Even if we kill all of you beasts, we won't be able to compensate for such a deep blood feud. If you know what's good for you, go and retrieve the origin of the astral fire and hand it to me obediently. Otherwise, I'll tear you into pieces, "A personal disciple snorted coldly.
This person could tell that the Fire Jiao was extraordinary, but with Senior Sister Luo Shenzi and Senior Brother Fire Cicadas around, he was fearless. At the same time, he could also curry favor with the two supreme titular disciples. Who knew, they might bestow some treasures in the future on a whim.
However, these words did not receive any praise. Instead, it made the two of them frown. That was because they had deeply experienced how terrifying this beast was. It was definitely not something that they could kill alone.
Han Tian sneered. "What idiots. If you don't think of a way and want to rely on brute force, even if there are another hundred titular disciples, I'm afraid you won't be able to kill all the demonic beasts here."
Wutian did not open his eyes. Even when he heard their words, he ignored them.
Han Tian was right. Putting aside whether they could kill all the demonic beasts, even if they could, it would be impossible for them to enter the fire pillar immediately, let alone head to the center to retrieve the origin of the astral fire.
Initially, he had planned to wait for Luo Shenzi and Fire Cicadas to join forces. However, after these days of observation, it was completely impossible!
The only way was to quickly adapt to the temperature here and advance step by step.
For the past few days, Wutian had been secretly paying attention to the Fire Jiao and realized that 50 kilometers was indeed its limit. If it went any deeper, it would probably not be able to withstand the high temperature.
As long as they could advance step by step towards the fire pillar, the Fire Jiao would be helpless.
"We're only here to cultivate. We don't have any designs on the origin of the astral fire," Fire Cicadas smiled.
Wutian opened his eyes for the first time and squinted at the Fire Cicadas. Facing a great enemy that had chased him for thousands of kilometers, he could still be so calm and composed. There was not even a trace of killing intent, and he was calm and composed. If he asked himself honestly, he would not be able to do it if it was him.
Wutian frowned. The longer he interacted with this person, the more mysterious he felt.
"Well then, please remember what you said," Fire Jiao said emotionlessly, "However, I request that the two of you stay. The rest of you leave."
These two naturally referred to Luo Shenzi and Fire Cicadas.
"Bastard, what do you mean? Why don't you let us stay? I want to fight you."
"This is not your private territory. What right do you have to not let us stay? What right do you have?"
"You're just a bastard. Do you really think you're the king of this place? Let me tell you, offending us is the same as offending the Sect. When we report this to the Sect, we'll kill you all."
The group of direct disciples were so angry that their necks turned red. This was obviously looking down on them. Since young, they were all elites and proud suns. When had they ever been looked down upon like this? Moreover, the other party was a demonic beast. They refused to accept this and opened their mouths to threaten.
"Ah …"
The Fire Jiao's eyes were cold. An invisible pressure gradually spread out. The few people who opened their mouths screamed as their bodies exploded. Blood and flesh splattered everywhere!
That dense killing intent made everyone's hair stand on end. Cold sweat dripped down their bodies. In such a hot place, their clothes were soaked. It was obvious how scared, terrified, and nervous they were!
Their voices came to an abrupt end. They were silent like cicadas in winter.
Luo Shenzi frowned and then relaxed. She smiled and said, "You all leave first. This is indeed not a place for you to stay."
"Senior Sister, you …"
"Senior Brother and I know what we're doing," Luo Shenzi smiled and interrupted the group before they could finish speaking.
"Yes, Senior Sister!"
"Bastard, remember this. I'll deal with you in the future!"
The group left unhappily. Before they left, they did not forget to threaten the Fire Jiao.
The Fire Jiao did not attack again. He led the group of little brothers and did not care about the Fire Cicadas. He returned to his original position.
The Fire Cicadas took large strides and walked towards the depths of the volcano. He had his hands behind his back. His figure was tall and straight, and he had an imposing appearance. His red hair danced in the heat waves. There was always a sunny smile on his face. He was amiable and approachable!
As if he was walking in a normal environment, his expression was calm. Every step he took was orderly. It was as if he was the ruler of this volcano. The astral fire did not affect him at all.
Very smoothly, he soon reached the hundred li mark. He was not like the other direct disciples who looked at everything with disdain. He looked at Wutian and nodded with a smile, making people have a good impression of him.
However, he did not stop and continued to walk towards the depths. When he reached the ninety li mark, the surface of his body suddenly overflowed with faint fire spiritual energy.
He continued. The deeper he went, the more intense the fire spiritual energy in his body became. His entire body was reflected in red, making him look like a fire god.
Unknowingly, the gazes of the demonic beasts were involuntarily fixed on him. No matter where he was, he was the center of attention.
Wutian was the same. He could feel that the Fire Cicadas's physical body was not strong, but the astral fire spat out by the astral fire origin did not seem to hurt him.
"He has an extremely high affinity with fire elements, almost a hundred times more than us. Even though astral flames are the kings of flames, they're still fire elements, so they won't be able to do much damage to him," explained Luo Shenzi as he walked over to the two of them, and a fragrance wafted out, intoxicating them.
This girl had an exquisite figure. She had a curvy front and a slender waist. Her eyes reflected the autumn waves. Her skin was white and glossy. She was truly a natural beauty. Even Wutian, who had great willpower, could not help but let his imagination run wild. He took a few more glances!
"Demoness!" Wutian muttered in his heart. He composed himself and said, "I think Senior Sister also has some tricks up her sleeve!"
Luo Shenzi was very calm. She smiled faintly and walked inside.
"Ding dong …"
Similarly, at the ninety li mark, Luoshen Zithern appeared and floated in front of her. The zither's melody was clear and melodious. It was a beautiful melody like flowing water!
This zither was a 'Royal Armament'. It had unimaginable abilities. When the zither's melody was played, the fire elemental energy in all directions automatically dispersed and made a path for her.
Her silky hair fluttered in the wind, exuding a celestial poise, like a celestial maiden descending to the mortal world. The Luoshen Zither moved along with her, playing a beautiful melody that drifted through the air. The demonic beasts on the mountain peak all revealed looks of intoxication!
"Buzz buzz!"
At this time, at the fifty li mark, the Fire Cicadas stopped. The fire elemental energy lingered on the surface of his body. The fire elemental energy in the air quickly rushed into his body, causing the space to tremble endlessly.
He took a step forward but stopped in midair. It seemed that this was his limit. It also seemed that it was not strenuous. Perhaps there was another reason for him to stop!
In short, no one could see what he was thinking.
"Clang clang …"
Luoshen Zithern floated up and down. The invisible zither's melody became faster and faster. The zither's melody became more and more passionate and powerful. It was as if countless divine weapons were colliding, but there was not a trace of noise!
Finally, Luo Shenzi sat down beside the Fire Cicadas. Luoshen Zithern floated above her head. Its spirituality was astonishing. Radiance rose and a rain of light sprinkled down, enveloping her within.
The fire elemental energy passed through Luoshen Zithern and floated into her body.
Luo Shenzi also had a fire elemental body. The astral fire was also very useful to her.
Han Tian hooked his arm around the Fire Jiao's neck and said meaningfully, "Old Jiao, my senior brother and sister's intentions are very clear. Why don't you go and stop them? If you let them adapt to the environment there and walk to the fire pillar, I'm afraid it will be too late for you to rush over."
The Fire Jiao did not say anything. Instead, three pairs of eyes squinted and carefully sized up the two. They also did not take any action.
At this time, Wutian suddenly stood up. Without hesitation, he took a step forward. Immediately, his throat heated up and he almost spat out blood. However, he forced it back down!
"I won't submit to anyone in the same generation. The Fire Cicadas can't do it. Luo Shenzi can't do it either. If they can do it, I, Wutian, can do it too. Fifty li, I will definitely do it!"
Wutian muttered and suddenly took a step forward!
