Yi Tian landed on an empty spot on the island. As soon as he touched the ground, he felt a burning smell coming from under his feet.
He lowered his head and sniffed carefully. The source of the smell was actually the bottom of his shoes.
He hurriedly used an escape technique and didn't dare to stay on the ground. He immediately flew into the air and used his spiritual sense to examine the island again.
Not far from the front was a thousand-foot tall mountain. There seemed to be flames shining from the top. It should be the volcano that Zhang Xian mentioned.
However, he was still a few dozen miles away from the volcano. He didn't expect the ground below to contain so much fire source energy.
He reached out and took out the Taiyuan Sword. He slashed upward and immediately pried up the soil within a ten-foot radius. Underneath the soil, there were traces of red magma flowing around. Yi Tian was shocked. He didn't expect the fire source energy on the island to have seeped into the ground.
After looking around, he flew to a pitch-black tree trunk and cut off a piece to examine it. His face immediately lit up. Although the trees here weren't authentic Fusang Trees, they should be a subspecies. He didn't expect there to be such an excellent cultivation holy land in this world.
The Fusang Trees in front of him were valuable treasures. For fire-type cultivators, they could be used to refine a natal spiritual treasure for future use.
These things could be put aside for now. Just now, his spiritual sense detected that there was an area on the island that his spiritual sense couldn't explore.
Although the area wasn't large, Yi Tian didn't dare to be careless. He quickly flew over.
After three breaths of time, he arrived at the isolated area. He looked down and saw that it was a lava swamp. Only then did he feel slightly relieved. It could be seen that the lava here took thousands of years to gather. It was thick enough to block his spiritual sense.
Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly saw an inconspicuous mark from the corner of his eye. The mark was only an inch large, but it was obvious that it wasn't formed naturally.
As a result, his heart immediately became alert. Looking at the lava swamp below, his expression immediately became unfriendly. He thought to himself, "Something is wrong. There might be some hidden danger below."
Suddenly, a bubble appeared in the lava swamp, attracting Yi Tian's attention. Originally, it wasn't strange for a bubble to appear, but this bubble clearly contained a surge of demon spiritual energy. Furthermore, looking at the density of the demon spiritual energy, it seems to be at least Rank 5.
Seeing this, Yi Tian hurriedly raised his Taiyuan Sword and slashed at the swamp below. However, before the sword light could get close to the swamp, a stream of lava flew up to meet the sword light.
It was a pity that this lava energy paled in comparison to the Taiyuan Sword. If it weren't for the fact that their attributes countered each other, it probably wouldn't have been able to delay the sword light for even a moment.
Yi Tian's eyes flashed, and he saw a red ball of light about three to four inches in size leap out of the lava. He shook his hand, and the sword light of the Taiyuan Sword missed the red ball of light.
In one move, the opponent was forced out of the swamp. When the red ball of light landed on the ground, a series of croaking sounds could be heard.
Yi Tian's eyes flashed, and he used Clear Spirit Dharma Eyes to take a look. Only then did he discover that the red ball of light was actually a toad about three inches in size. At this moment, its face was filled with shock, and its stomach was bulging as it continuously croaked.
This was the first time he saw a living creature on the island. After sizing it up, he discovered that it was an early Rank 5 Fire Toad. However, this demonic beast lived here alone, and had never left the swamp before. When it saw someone invading its territory, it didn't recognize the situation and directly attacked.
Against this Rank 5 demonic beast, Yi Tian believed that he only needed to move his fingers to defeat it. Afterwards, he put away the Taiyuan Sword and took out several Ghost Face Flower Seeds. He pinched them in his hand and muttered, "Go."
In an instant, a vine as thick as a bowl extended from his hand and surrounded the Fire Toad from both sides, directly trapping it in the center.
Yi Tian was still prepared to trap these strange beasts. Creatures that could survive in such a harsh environment must have their own strengths. This Fire Toad only looked like an early Rank 5 demonic beast. However, ordinary demonic beasts would need at least seven to eight hundred years to reach this stage by relying on their own cultivation.
Moreover, those strange beasts that inherited ancient bloodlines would take even longer. Unlike Fat Dog, who had been eating and drinking by his side, and who had been infused with the divine blood of spiritual beasts from the upper realm, it took less than eight hundred years to reach Rank 7.
That Fire Toad saw that things were not going well. Its four legs pushed against the ground with all its might, and its body jumped more than ten feet high. It looked like it wanted to jump back into the lava swamp.
It wasn't easy to find a place to cultivate. Yi Tian didn't want to be disturbed by this kind of creature. With a shake of his hands, he controlled the wooden vines to weave into a net and cut off the Fire Toad's path of return.
It was obvious that this Fire Toad didn't have much intelligence. Seeing that it had fallen into the wooden vine net, it still struggled with all its might, wanting to jump out.
Yi Tian hooked his finger slightly. Several finger-thick vines extended from the wooden vine net and firmly held the Fire Toad's four limbs.
Then, it helplessly opened its mouth and hurriedly croaked.
As a demonic beast, the Fire Toad seemed to be able to sense that its life was at stake. Thus, it couldn't care less and struggled with all its might.
At this moment, Yi Tian slowly walked forward to take a closer look. This Fire Toad was about four inches long, and the skin on its back was faintly dark red.
Just as he was thinking, he suddenly saw the Fire Toad open its mouth and take a deep breath at him. Yi Tian then felt a trace of abnormality. He hurriedly retreated to the side and began to check his body to see if there was anything wrong.
But after a while, he scanned himself several times with his spiritual sense but didn't find any injuries. In the blink of an eye, the Fire Toad seemed to be more energetic. Something must have happened just now. Also, the Fire Toad must have taken something from him.
His vision was limited, so he couldn't tell if it was real or fake. But, he still had a demonic beast from the Upper Realm with him. After thinking about it, he patted his storage pouch and released Meng Xin.
After three breaths, a golden light flew out and floated not far in front of him. After the golden light faded, the small Meng Xin was revealed. He rubbed his eyes and shouted with dissatisfaction, "Why do you always disturb my sleep? What trouble did you run into this time?"
Yi Tian curled his lips and pointed at the Fire Toad in the wooden vine net, "Nothing, I dare not trouble you. Please help me identify what kind of creature this is."
Meng Xin turned his head and stared at it with his small eyes. He then curled his lips and said, "It's just a variant of the 'Cloud Dream Toad'. The bloodline power in its body seems to have not awakened yet. Did you fall into its trap?"
Yi Tian's face sank, and he replied helplessly, "It opened its mouth and took a breath at me, but I couldn't find any injuries."
"Luck, this little guy's innate magical power can absorb a trace of luck from others. You hit the jackpot. The Cloud Dream Toad is born with a pair of special eyes that can see the level of luck." Meng Xin looked at Yi Tian and continued, "It won't absorb other people's luck at will. Only cultivators who have reached a certain level of strength can enter its eyes."
