Stepping into the Lava Purgatory, the instant Ling Chen's feet landed on the red ground, he felt an incredibly hot wave of air rush towards him, causing him to hold his breath. He had only taken one step forward, but the temperature had changed so much that it was as if he had entered a completely different world.
So hot!
This scorching feeling was like being baked in a steamer basket.
Ling Chen took in a deep breath. What he exhaled was naturally hot air. Fortunately, the heat was not to the point where he could not endure it. However, he knew that this was only the edge of the Molten Rock Purgatory. If it was like this at the edge, how terrifying would it be in front of him?
Gritting his teeth, Ling Chen held his breath and rushed forward as fast as he could. In a place like this, it was best to stay as long as possible.
The further in he went, the more terrifying the temperature became. At this temperature that was slowly approaching the limit of human senses, every degree of increase in temperature was a different level of torture. Ling Chen avoided the clumps of fire, and quickly ran towards the central area. As he ran, beads of sweat quickly appeared and flowed down, but they didn't flow for too long before evaporating.
Huff …
The breath that Ling Chen exhaled was frighteningly hot. After a hundred meters, his entire face had turned red. The ground of the Molten Rock Purgatory was uneven and filled with jagged rocks. The further they went, the deeper the color of the ground and rocks became. The redness was shocking, as if it could burst into flames at any time. When he looked up, the sky was also red. The sky in this area had been dyed red by the Molten Rock Purgatory.
Huff … I don't believe I can't get through!
According to the map, the Molten Rock Purgatory stretched for twenty kilometers from north to south. This meant that if Ling Chen wanted to reach the center, he had to travel about ten kilometers in a straight line. In the process, the temperature he had to endure would only get higher and higher.
-50, -50, -50 …
After a hundred meters, damage numbers started to appear above Ling Chen's head. At this point, not only was the temperature causing discomfort to his senses, but it was also taking away his HP. Ling Chen looked at the red number above his head, his eyebrows furrowed even more, and he tried to walk as fast as possible.
-100, -100, -100 …
-150, -150, -150 …
-200, -200, -200 …
As Ling Chen advanced, the rate at which he lost HP increased. When he was less than a kilometer away, the rate had already reached 200 HP per second. Ling Chen's current HP was 1471. If he used the highest grade cyan potion that could recover 1500 HP per second, he could still endure it. But if it continued to increase, unless he used the incomparably precious Dew of Dawn that only had 100 drops, he wouldn't be able to resist the loss of HP no matter what.
At the same time, the burning sensation on his body had already reached the point where Ling Chen's face contorted in pain. He didn't know how high the temperature here was, but he knew that he was enduring a burning sensation. It was as if balls of fire were burning his body, causing him to clench his teeth … especially his feet that were in direct contact with the ground. It was as if he was walking barefoot on red-hot steel, the scorching heat was unbearable.
Xi Ling was willing to sacrifice her life for me … What's a little bit of suffering for me!!
Ling Chen clenched his teeth, but still madly rushed forward. After walking a few more steps, he suddenly thought of the pair of Ice Silk Shoes that Qian Gungun had left behind. He immediately stopped and put on the pair of Ice Silk Shoes.
The cool feeling in the scorching heat made Ling Chen feel so comfortable that he couldn't help but moan. Especially the moment he put on the shoes, a trace of cool air seeped into his feet, and then slowly spread to his whole body, causing his whole body to tremble so much that he almost forgot how to walk.
After putting on the Ice Silk Shoes, the heat on his feet had almost completely disappeared after just a few seconds. Not only did the Ice Silk Shoes bring about a sharp decrease in the heat on his feet, but even the burning sensation on his whole body had decreased by a lot. Even the rate at which he lost HP had also decreased to only 50 HP per second. The effect was so good that it far exceeded Ling Chen's expectations.
His spirit had suddenly sobered up a lot, and his willpower had also become firmer. He stepped on the ice skates, stepping on the fiery red ground. Looking at the fiery red road ahead, he continued to quickly rush forward.
Another kilometer had passed, and Ling Chen had already approached the central region of the Lava Purgatory. After all, there was a limit to the effect of the Ice Silk Shoes. At this point, Ling Chen's HP had once again reached 200 HP per second. His whole face was as red as blood, and he was sweating like rain. His whole body was burning with pain.
In front of him, the burning flames had already become particularly dense … The flames here could no longer be called flames, but clusters of flames. The weakest ones were more than a meter high, and the bigger ones were even much taller than Ling Chen. At this moment, Little Gray, who had been running in front of him, suddenly stopped, and let out a warning shout. Ling Chen immediately stopped, and held his breath, looking forward with rapt attention. Gradually, he also began to feel an unusual aura.
There were countless flames in his line of sight. Under his attentive gaze, he could clearly see that these flames were clearly swaying. Moreover, the swaying was getting more and more intense. And there was clearly no wind here! How could there be flames that were swaying without any wind? Gradually, as these flames swayed more and more intensely, they suddenly left the ground and floated up into the air, becoming large and small fireballs floating in the air. Above the fireballs, two short flaming arms quickly stretched out. On top of the fireballs, a small cluster of darker flames burned, looking like hair. And slightly above the middle of the body, two scarlet yellow eyes opened.
This was …
[Flame Sprite]: Type: Spirit, Level: LV30, HP: 900. An elemental sprite that was born from an overly active fire element in a scorching environment. It has inherited the fierceness of flames, and likes to burn anything that can be burned.
Innate Abilities: Immunity to 90% of physical attacks, immunity to fire element damage.
Attack Skills: [Scarlet Flame Bullet]: Throws a small fireball to attack a single enemy. Although the attack method is simple, it is extremely powerful. After hitting the target, it will trigger Flame Splash, dealing 50% damage to surrounding enemies.
Weakness: Low HP, weak to water type attacks (-80% water resistance).
In the blink of an eye, there were more than 50 to 60 of these Fire Sprites gathered. As a LV30 monster, these Fire Sprites only had 900 HP. However, these elemental Fire Sprites were not afraid of physical attacks at all, and could resist up to 90% of physical attacks. In order to deal with them, it was obvious that Water Elementalists were the best at it. For a pure physical attack profession, dealing with a single Fire Sprite would be a headache, let alone so many of them.
Although Ling Chen was also a physical attack profession, he was not one of them.
"Hmph, looking to die!"
With a cold snort, Ling Chen summoned his two weapons and rushed forward. As he got closer, three fireballs shot out from the bodies of three Fire Sprites. Unfortunately, these fireballs were not fast, and Ling Chen did not need to deliberately dodge them. As he ran, these fireballs were already left behind. He quickly rushed in front of the two Fire Sprites in front of him, and with a Ling Tian Slash, the Zephyr Blade pierced through the bodies of the two Fire Sprites.
Chi chi!
-2506，-5004！
The Fire Sprites that were hit quickly dissipated in the sound of extinguishing. The damage numbers that floated up from their bodies were not reduced at all, and were enough to kill them several times over. Normal physical attacks would be 90% immune, but Ling Chen had the Cancer Orb, so defense, physical immunity, and absolute defense were all equivalent to non-existent.
After destroying two, Ling Chen did not stop and went straight forward. Of course, his target was not the Fire Sprites, but to reach his destination in the shortest time possible. His only target was the Fire Sprites in front of him. His body shuttled back and forth between all the fireballs that were aimed at him, but not only was he not hit, even his speed was basically not affected. Every time he attacked, a small group of Fire Sprites would dissipate in the sound of extinguishing.
Chi …
Chi …
Chi …
Chi …
The Fire Sprites were extinguished one after another. With the Feng Chen Technique, even without riding a mount, Ling Chen's Movement Speed was as high as 175, which was much faster than normal Assassins. With his incredibly fast and precise movements, the Fire Sprites in front of him were quickly destroyed. However, the further he went, the more Fire Sprites there were. Although he was destroying them incredibly quickly, the number of Fire Sprites in front of him continued to increase, causing Ling Chen's scalp to go numb.
Not only were there more and more Fire Sprites, but they were also becoming more and more agitated, as if they were furious at him for barging in and destroying them. Ling Chen was unable to stop, so he could only grit his teeth and continue onwards. If he stopped, the chaotic fireballs would easily hit his body. Although the fireballs were not very fast and did not have a very long range, it was clearly stated in the skill description that the fireballs were incredibly powerful. It was possible that just one of them would be enough to cripple him. Seeing that there were more and more Fire Sprites, Ling Chen had no choice but to put on the Evil God's Mask just in case.
Chi …
Chi …
The more densely packed the Flame Spirits were, the more Ling Chen would be able to destroy at once. The Flame Spirits madly jumped and swayed, and seemed to realise that their attacks did not pose a threat to Ling Chen, so they all stopped attacking.
Everything seemed to be safe, but Ling Chen suddenly felt an immense sense of danger.
