Although most of Will's skin was scorched and his eyes were severely burned, he still had his hearing. When he heard Zark's roar, he turned around and groped around. He grabbed Zark's shoulder and pulled him over. Of course, he only pulled his upper body over.
However, when the nerves of the body were injured, the sense of touch would often become very chaotic. Will didn't notice anything wrong at all, and he knew that the lava would surge over sooner or later. He didn't dare to delay for a moment, and staggered towards the back of the tunnel.
After running for more than ten steps, Will felt that Zark's body was frighteningly light. A moment later, a mournful roar came from the depths of the tunnel, "Zark …"
In another place, in order to escape, Alquete's performance was as crazy as Will's. Unfortunately, due to fear and despair, the vampires all moved closer to their ancestors, blocking Alquete's line of sight. If Alquete discovered Will's movements and chose that tunnel to escape, with his powerful and majestic mental strength, he would definitely be able to rush out unscathed.
One after another, waves of fist energy bombarded the vault of the earth. Emotions could be contagious. Sensing the fear and despair of his descendants, Alquete's heart, which didn't have much courage to begin with, became even more panicked and lost all rationality. He actually made the most stupid choice, which was to open a tunnel in the vault of the earth.
The lava was still slowly rising. The world here had already turned into an oven. The unimaginably high temperature caused the air to boil. Vampires constantly lost their strength and fell down. However, before their bodies touched the lava, they began to burn fiercely, like falling meteors. This magnificent scene was as if a grand magus was releasing a forbidden spell, Meteor Fire Rain!
There were fewer and fewer vampires around Alquete. Even Zagunéd's nominal wife, Lindsay, lost her strength and fell down involuntarily. If she had known that this day would come, perhaps she would have chosen to stand up and stand with Zagunéd at his most desperate moment. However, regretting the past when facing death was no longer meaningful.
Alquete was still throwing out punches with all his might. To him, the lava was nothing. It was nothing if his people all died. The problem was that there was a terrifying enemy hiding in the dark, conserving his energy and watching covetously. The longer he stayed in this harsh environment, the more his strength would decline. At that time, it would be impossible for him to fight against Han Jin, so he had to escape as soon as possible!
After throwing out countless punches, Alquete completely relied on his own mental strength and blasted a cone-shaped hole more than fifty meters deep in the dome. Hiding in the hole, it was difficult for the heat of the lava to seep in. Even so, there were only a dozen vampires left under Alquete's feet.
Alquete had just heaved a sigh of relief when he suddenly realized that the rock above him had begun to squirm. He originally thought that it was an illusion caused by using too much strength. He shook his head hard and realized that not only was the rock squirming, it was also growing rapidly.
"No!!" Alquete roared and threw out another punch with all his might.
With a loud bang, Alquete's punch not only shattered the newly grown rock, but also deepened the hole by a few meters.
Han Jin sat on the other side of the dome. His left hand waved like a butterfly, and streaks of Three True Flames hovered in the air, burning quietly.
"Flow of the five elements, grow and multiply without end!" Han Jin formed a spell and shouted, "Go!"
The dozens of streaks of Three True Flames hovering in the air exploded neatly and scattered on the ground like raindrops. The moment each flame touched the ground, it would turn into a cloud of shiny black dust, and then disappear into the depths of the dome.
Alquete threw out both of his fists continuously. The dome continued to shatter and grow. Alquete's face became more and more ferocious, and Han Jin's forehead was sweating slightly.
This was a contest between the power of Taoism and the power of another world. However, Han Jin had the advantage. He used the Three True Flames to create the True Void Soil, giving the dome a strong regenerative power, just like the legendary Living Soil. On the other hand, Alquete only used strength to resist. It was obvious who had the advantage. Han Jin only used 10% of his strength to create a threat, but Alquete had to use 10% of his strength to break it.
Boom … boom boom … The dome continued to tremble. The remaining ten vampires could not withstand the violent shock waves at all. They fell down one after another with cries of pain. Alquete desperately realized that even though he had released all of his mental strength, the speed of his destruction could not keep up with the speed of the dome's regeneration. His body was retreating bit by bit!
Finally, Alquete was completely forced out of the hole. The corner of his long robe suddenly emitted a wisp of green smoke, and then it burned. This meant that Alquete's mental strength was beginning to weaken.
Alquete's eyes lit up with a thick silver light, and the flame at the corner of his robe was immediately extinguished. His fist swung upwards again.
With a boom, a hole about three meters deep appeared in the dome. However, just as Alquete retracted his fist, the hole was filled with rocks that kept growing.
Alquete screamed and wanted to throw out another punch, but Han Jin's figure had already appeared hundreds of meters away, looking at him with a smile.
Alquete finally found a target to vent his anger. His body suddenly turned into a silver line, shooting towards Han Jin.
Han Jin rode on his sword and flew backward. He did not want to confront Alquete directly at this time. Never compromising was just his attitude towards this world, but the way he fought was varied and colorful. The civilization that Han Jin had truly inherited was the best at "trickery." As the saying goes, "using trickery to break through a thousand pounds," "using two peaches to kill three soldiers," "going with the flow and going against the flow," and so on. Every attribute in the thirty-six stratagems was a clear indication of the art of trickery.
In this purgatory, a silver line was chasing after a green light, swimming rapidly. Alquete was fast, but Han Jin was not slow either. After his state of mind had a breakthrough, his figure riding on the sword became more agile and graceful, always able to avoid Alquete's attacks in time.
After an unknown amount of time, Alquete finally stopped chasing in despair. He glared at Han Jin. His long robe was slowly becoming charred, but he was powerless to stop anything.
"That's it? You're ready to say goodbye to me? " Han Jin also stopped. His calm smile was like a sharp blade, deeply piercing into Alquete's heart, making Alquete feel unbearable pain.
"Don't be complacent. The Blood Breeds will not let you go!" Alquete said with difficulty.
"It doesn't matter …" Han Jin replied calmly. Although he had always looked down on Alquete, he still paid enough attention to him in battle. He did not want to easily get close to a powerhouse at the peak of the twelfth level who was good at close combat and had fallen into a desperate situation, even though his opponent was already panting.
Alquete took a deep breath. The air had already become boiling. In a situation where his mental strength was almost exhausted, Alquete's mouth and trachea were immediately burned. Large and small blood blisters appeared, and then they simply became charred black. This was an unimaginable pain, but Alquete seemed to feel nothing. Then, from the depths of his heart, a roar of unwillingness erupted.
Alquete's body shrunk abruptly, then expanded abruptly. Countless cracks appeared on his skin, and thousands of drops of blood shot out in all directions with his body as the center. An invisible pressure hit the dome of the earth, causing it to tremble violently. The invisible pressure hit the ground again, and right below Alquete's body, the lava that had accumulated more than ten meters high gushed out, revealing the ground that was red from the heat.
Han Jin once again became the 'shameless rat' that Alquete spoke of. Before the roar erupted, which was the moment when Alquete's body suddenly shrank, Han Jin had already cast the Earth Shrinking Spell. Then, a ray of green light disappeared into the depths of the vault of the earth.
After a few breaths of time, Han Jin appeared in another place. He cast the Earth Shrinking Spell again, and instantly approached Alquete. A ray of red light shot out from his mouth, slashing towards Alquete's neck.
Alquete had already lost all of his strength, and many parts of his body were ignited in flames. With a slash of the sword, the head that looked like a duck's egg suddenly flew high into the air. Han Jin seemed to be unsatisfied. He pointed with his sword finger, and the red light flew up again, cutting Alquete's head diagonally into two halves.
"Why is there no more …" Han Jin revealed a disappointed expression. Then, the green light rose up and disappeared into the vault of the earth.
After a moment, Han Jin appeared in a dark tunnel. After walking for a dozen meters, there was a fork in the road ahead. Han Jin did not hesitate for a moment and slowly walked into the left tunnel. Half of Zark's body was lying not far ahead. His giant scythe was thrown away somewhere, and his charcoal-like body emitted an unpleasant burnt smell.
Han Jin stopped beside Zark's body, waved the green light, and directly penetrated the back of Zark's head. Then, with a forceful flick, Zark's head exploded.
After putting another magic crystal into his space ring, Han Jin turned around and walked back. This time, he chose the right tunnel. After walking for about a hundred meters, Han Jin suddenly stopped. There was a pile of high gravel on the side. It looked like it was caused by the earth walls falling off naturally due to lack of maintenance.
Han Jin smiled and raised his hand to release the green light. With a flash of cold light, it passed through a distance of more than ten meters and directly shot into the pile of gravel.
With a scream, Will suddenly sat up from the pile of gravel and rotated his giant scythe. However, Han Jin was more than ten meters away. His giant scythe only thing he could do was leave a deep mark on the wall opposite him.
"You … How did you find me?" Will stared with his empty eyes, as if he was asking the air in front of him.
"Because I left a mark on your body. No matter where you run, I can find you." Han Jin lightly replied.
"Haha … I've already become a blind man!" Will turned his head. He had already caught Han Jin's position, "And my injuries are very serious. Even if you don't look for me, I won't be able to live for long. Like this … You still don't want to let me go?"
"You know, I need your magic crystal." Han Jin's voice didn't carry any emotion.
"Yes, I know …" Will's voice trembled. Zagunéd's coldness was because of loneliness, and Will's coldness was because of the sadness of being a prey. Even if a frog saw a snake, it was like a sparrow seeing an eagle.
"Right, I want to ask you a question. You don't have to answer." Han Jin paused, "Do you know Donald?"
"Donald?" Wei Pu suddenly froze.
"Yes."
"I didn't want to answer any of your questions, but … This really makes me excited!" Will began to laugh wildly, "Haha … Great Lord Raphael, did you provoke Lord Donald?"
"I didn't provoke him, but one day in the future, he will provoke me." Han Jin lightly said.
"Do you know what Donald means in the ancient Elven language?" Will's expression was very strange. There was excitement, expectation, and joy in others' misfortune. His injuries made him feel pain every moment, and his face was very ugly. All of these added together made Will look like an evil spirit that came to collect debts.
"The Abyssal Race can also use the ancient Elven language?" Han Jin smiled.
"In ancient times, the Elven Empire was the most powerful, and the Elven language became the common language of the continent. Later, with the decline of the Elven Empire, the Elven language was gradually forgotten." Will revealed a sinister smile, "Lord Raphael, let me tell you, Donald means the leader of the world. Do you now understand what kind of opponent you have provoked? Hahahaha … "
"Idiot, a name is always just a name. If I name my dog Donald, will the dog also become the leader of the world?" Han Jin said unconcernedly.
"You don't understand, Lord Donald is the most outstanding monarch of the Abyssal World!" The more Will spoke, the more excited he became, completely forgetting his injuries, "He is also the eternal pride of us Abyssal Demons!"
"Donald is also an Abyssal Demon?" Han Jin frowned, Abyssal Demons were indeed a headache. Although he already had the strength to suppress Will, if he really wanted to kill Will, he would have to use a lot of methods.
"No, Lord Donald is an Abyssal Great Demon! The strongest person in the Abyssal World who has the inheritance of the God of Death! " Will laughed wildly, "Even an Angel of Light is not Lord Donald's opponent. Lord Raphael, I'm sorry to tell you that you are dead! Becoming Lord Donald's enemy is equivalent to receiving the call of the God of Death, haha … "
"Thank you for your reminder." Han Jin indifferently said, "However, I have already collected seven Space Magic Crystals. In the near future, I will set up a very mystical Magic Array. No one will be able to harm me and my friends, including that so-called leader of the world."
"You …" Wei Pu suddenly woke up from his excited imagination and faced the bloody reality.
"Your brothers have all left, I can't let them wait too long, can I?" Han Jin said with a smile.
"No!" Will roared, his figure suddenly pouncing towards Han Jin's position, but he was seriously injured and had been stabbed by Han Jin, so his last attack had no power at all.
Han Jin pointed his sword and the Cyan Light fell diagonally, cutting off Will's neck. Will's tall body fell heavily to the ground, his head first hitting the wall, then rolling a few times on the ground before stopping at Han Jin's feet.

Riptide's speed was very slow. The deep tunnel could at most allow two Knight to walk side by side, and they had to leave a small path beside them in case of emergency. No matter what, they couldn't fill up the tunnel.
Although they could use the power of the super volcano to deal with the enemies in the underground city, the situation they were facing was still not optimistic. The elves had already taken over the Beitman, cutting off their way back. They couldn't hide underground for too long, and the lack of sunlight and hunger were all threats that couldn't be ignored.
Fortunately, Han Jin had an outstanding think tank around him. Although it couldn't be said that their decision was the best, it was at least the most suitable for the current situation.
The conservative way was to return to Black Raven City and recuperate there. They agreed with Jedis' judgment. Wild Willow City had dispatched such a large military force, their goal was definitely not just a Beitman. The elves must have included Dismark in their plan. Before defeating Dismark, the elves wouldn't touch Black Raven City for the time being. They would wait for the development of the situation before deciding when to join the war.
However, Guevara, Jedis, and Majordomo Gail all chose another countermeasure. It could be said that they were not conservative people.
They would sneak into the Holy Crown City's sphere of influence from underground and wait for the right opportunity! If Dismark couldn't resist the elves' attack, they would ally with Dismark, and Dismark would have no reason to refuse. If Dismark could defend the city to the death, then they would have to wait for a longer time. The elves' intention couldn't be hidden from them. They would launch a blitzkrieg war with the largest military force at the moment when everyone thought that the elves wouldn't send out their troops. They would completely end the war before winter arrived.
Guevara and the others had noticed the elves' unusual movements before, but they thought that the elves would choose the beginning of next spring to start the war. This was also the main reason why they were eager to eliminate Zagunéd. Although the elves' choice caught them unprepared, it also pushed the elves to the edge of the cliff. Winter was coming, and the elves were the most unbearable race on the continent.
Therefore, the elves' attack would be very fierce, and Dismark would also spare no effort to resist. It was inevitable that both sides would suffer. When winter came, the elves would suddenly come out from underground. How could the exhausted Holy Crown City resist their attack? Then they would chase after the elves who had to retreat because of the extreme cold. The future would still be in their hands. As for how the situation would develop after the beginning of next spring, it depended on whether they could successfully occupy the Holy Crown City, and whether they could inflict heavy losses on the elves' army.
No matter how critical the situation was, Guevara, Jedis, and Majordomo Gail would never be discouraged. In the words of another world, they must seize the initiative, and create the initiative even if they didn't have the initiative!
In fact, when the young commander Lang Ning learned that the elves had occupied the Beitman, he was very depressed. But under the encouragement of these three big shots, he became confident again, because he saw hope.
