The Lord of Void and Real
Chapter 756

Chapter 756: Chapter 752: Sheng Ying King Chapter 756: Chapter 752: Sheng Ying King Two days and one night later, Shen Luo halted his journey in the underworld, then silently emerged from the ground, and looked forward.

Ahead lay endless mountain peaks, but their color had changed to a black-red hue, indicating that they were all volcanoes. Some towering up to a thousand feet, while others were only several dozen feet high. Billowing thick smoke spewed from these mountain tops, occasionally, crimson lava shot skyward, and deep in the mountain range was even more filled with scorching red light, making it appear as though the entire mountain range was ablaze.

Even on the outskirts of the mountain range, Shen Luo could feel waves of scorching heat hit his face.

This place was his destination, the Fire-spreading Mountain range.

“The scope of this Fire-spreading Mountain Range seems extensive, I wonder where in the mountains that Red Boy is?” He looked at the vast expanse of mountains ahead and couldn't help but feel vexed.

Moreover, the ground of this volcanic zone was filled with lava, and the spiritual power of fire was abundant, making it challenging to carry on his earth escaping technique.

Shen Luo tucked away the yellow silk handkerchief and took out a white talisman to stick on his body, this was the invisibility talisman he had recently mastered.

The talisman turned into a ball of white light and merged into his body, his whole body rapidly became transparent. After a few breaths, he disappeared entirely from the spot, even his breath was almost entirely concealed.

“Not bad.” A faint smile appeared on the corner of Shen Luo's mouth as he took to the air and flew ahead, albeit at a slow pace.

Although this invisibility talisman concealed his tracks, his cultivation level was too high, in comparison, the invisibility talisman of the Jade Fox Clan seemed of a lower grade. Calling upon too much mana at once would disturb the effects of the talisman, giving away his position.

Fortunately, Shen Luo was currently looking for clues and not rushing on a journey, so there was no need to fly too fast.

The Fire-spreading Mountain was quite desolate, he flew for a while without encountering a creature. The demon soldiers that often patrolled elsewhere seemed to have disappeared entirely.

His patience started to wear thin, considering there was no one around, he wondered if he should pick up some speed.

Just as this thought crossed his mind, a chunk of red demon cloud soared out from the depths of the Fire-spreading Mountain range and flew towards him.

But the red cloud seemed unstable, fluctuating, and midway it suddenly collapsed; a red demon fell from it and landed not too far ahead of Shen Luo.

Shen Luo halted, activated his powers to hide his breath and looked attentively in its direction.

The demon took on a humanoid form but was so emaciated it resembled a skeleton, with large round eyes, bulbous nose, big mouth, yellow teeth and was incredibly ugly. It looked like a small monkey, and its skin and hair were all a fiery red color with a set of fiery red wings on its back – it appeared to be some kind of fire demon. However, one of its wings was severely injured, almost entirely severed with just a bit of skin still attached.

That little Fire demon's cultivation level wasn't strong, only at the early Nascent Soul stage. As soon as it hit the ground, it immediately flipped over and leaped up, and continued to walk and run forward, a look of terror on its face.

At this very moment, two beams of black light appeared in the distant sky, shooting towards them.

The little Fire demon's face went even paler. It flickered with red light on its wings, and a ball of red fire cloud emerged around its body, lifting it slightly back into the air.

Shen Luo's mind raced, his figure flickered as he swooped next to the little fire demon and raised his hand.

A swathe of golden light shot out from his palm, enveloping the small fire demon and then gently moved it. The small fire demon disappeared into thin air, and the golden light vanished along with it.

Two beams of black light moved pretty fast. In a few breaths, they were closer, showing a large and small humanoid birdhead. Both of them were demon soldiers with a curved knife in hand. Their cultivation levels were quite high, with the smaller one reaching the Nascent Soul Middle Stage and the larger one reaching the Late Nascent Soul Stage.

“Eh! The Fire Slave was just here, how could it have disappeared in the blink of an eye?” The smaller bird-headed demon soldier cried out in a sharp voice.

“It's all your fault, you idiot. You can't even keep an eye on a Nascent Soul initial stage of a Fire Slave. If it escapes, the Great King will burn all your feathers, quickly look for it!” the larger demon soldier growled angrily.

The smaller demon soldier remained silent and started searching around hastily.

The larger demon soldier stood aside for a while before he couldn't hold back and joined the search. They didn't find anything in their surroundings, not even a hair of the young Fire demon seemed to evaporate into thin air.

“I'm going to search ahead! You search to the left and right!” After a roar, the larger demon soldier flew forward.

The smaller demon soldier agreed and flew to the left.

Once both demon soldiers left, Shen Luo's vague figure appeared not far behind a large stone. He swept his gaze towards the direction where the two demons had gone and then flew into the distance.

He flew twenty or thirty miles before he stopped in a mountain stream and his divine sense entered the space of the Heavenly Book.

In the golden space, the little fire demon looked around with a terrified face, but didn't dare to act rashly.

Just at that moment, the golden light surged and formed a translucent golden figure. It was Shun Luo.

The little fire demon saw this and immediately fell to Shen Luo's feet.

“I, Huo San, would like to thank the great immortal for saving my life.”

“Oh, how do you know I was saving you? Maybe I just needed some rations and caught you for soup.” Shen Luo saw that the little fire demon was quite sharp-witted. He teased him with a slight smile on his face.

“The Great Immortal has immeasurable divine powers, if you had wanted to kill me, you could have done so long ago. Moreover, you saved my life, even if I owe you my life in return, there would be nothing wrong with that.” Huo San said humbly.

“Such a clever little thing,” Shen Luo waved his hand, “But don't pretend to be grateful. I captured you because I needed to ask you some questions. I am not interested in your life. As long as you answer satisfyingly, I will let you go soon, and even reward you.”

“I appreciate it, Great Immortal. Please feel free to ask anything, I promise to answer everything honestly.” Huo San replied with great joy and thanked him again.

“I saw you flying out from the depths of the Fire-Spreading Mountain, are you a monster from this mountain range? Why were those two bird-headed monsters chasing to kill you?” Shen Luo asked.

In response, Huo San revealed, “Honorable Immortal, I originally lived in this Fire Vast Mountain as a part of the Fire Charm Tribe. A few years ago, a group of demons occupied this mountain, captured all of us from the Fire Charm Tribe, and forced us to summon fire from the earth's lungs every day to refine an array for them. Although our tribe naturally possesses fire-controlling divine powers from birth, our strength is not very high. The fire from the earth's lung even contains various types of fire poisons. Prolonged contact leads to slow death by poisoning. I didn't want to die like this, took advantage of the negligence of the demon soldiers, and managed to escape, but still got seriously injured by patrol demon soldiers. I was fortunate to have met you.”

“Is there a demon called Sheng Ying King or Red Boy among that group of demons?” Shen Luo didn't pay any attention to the rest and continued to ask.

“Yes, indeed. The Sheng Ying King is the leader of those demons! He looks like a child and holds a Fire Gun. He is very powerful.” Huo San immediately answered.

“Yes, that's the demon I'm talking about. Where in the Fire-Spreading Mountain are they located? Besides the Sheng Ying King, are there other powerful demons among them?” Shen Luo's eyes brightened and he asked with a follow-up question.
