The Lord of Void and Real
Chapter 763

Chapter 763: Chapter 759: Infiltration Chapter 763: Chapter 759: Infiltration Half an hour later, Shen Luo and Huo San found themselves in front of another torrent of lava. This lava was different from before – it was a mixture of crimson and gold, scorching hot, with tongues of fire occasionally whipping over its surface.

“Once we cross this lava, we'll reach the Lava Cave. However, this layer of lava is extremely thick, and we need to navigate several bends. I'm afraid the methods you used to cross lava earlier might not work this time.” Huo San warned.

Shen Luo thoughtfully nodded his head, then pushed out into the void with both hands.

Two strands of tangible golden light shot out from his hands, merging into a thick golden cone that pierced into the molten lava.

Although the lava was intensely hot, it was soft, a conical void was immediately created upon impact.

Even though the lava had been pushed aside, a fearsome blazing heat permeated through the golden cone. Shen Luo's hands felt as though they'd been stabbed with flaming swords, and even his Red Flame Beads couldn't counteract it.

In a hurry, he took out the Profound Ice Mask and put it on his face.

A burst of icy breath instantly flowed throughout his body, greatly alleviating the piercing sensation in his hands.

“I'm glad I borrowed these two treasures.” Shen Luo exhaled a sigh of relief. The golden light on his body fluctuated, forming a golden shield. At the same time, a flash of yellow light emerged from his body, revealing the Yellow Silk Handkerchief. It added a layer of defense inside the golden shield.

The Yellow Silk Handkerchief had some heat-resistant properties. It's better than nothing.

“Let's go.” After finishing these preparations, he plunged into the lava.

Seeing this, Huo San also dove into the lava, leading the way.

Even though Shen Luo had traversed through seven or eight layers of lava, he had always passed through it instantly, never lingering within. Now, as he made his way through the lava, oppressive waves of heat emanated from all around, leaving him gasping for breath. Although the Profound Ice Mask filtered out most of the heat, the remainder still made him feel as if he was being chopped up with a knife.

Huo San also noticed Shen Luo's predicament and led the way with all his might. However, due to the winding path within the lava, Shen Luo couldn't travel at full speed.

After what felt like half a cup of tea's worth of time, Shen Luo felt a surge of relief.

Through his Divine Sense, he sensed the end of the lava in front of them, implying that they were finally going to leave this lava region.

At this point, his whole body was baked red, and his skin even started to crack. If he was forced to endure for another incense stick's time, he wouldn't be able to hang on any longer.

Just as he was about to muster his energy and charge out in one burst, he suddenly heard Huo San's voice transmission in his ear.

“Great Immortal, hold on.”

“What's the matter?” Shen Luo was taken aback, stopping in his tracks.

“Once we pass this section of lava, we will be at the Magma Melt Cave where our Fire Charm Clan is imprisoned. There are guards there, and with my recent escape, the guarding there is definitely tighter. We need to think of a reliable way to sneak in, or we'll be discovered if we just head out directly.” Huo San quickly explained.

“I see. You rest a bit, and let me handle this.” Shen Luo nodded slightly, swept Huo San into the Heavenly Book Space with a wave of his hand, then took out an Invisibility Talisman and attached it to his body, making his tracks invisible again.

The invisibility talisman worked well, successfully concealing the golden light on his body too.

He nodded slightly and slowly propelled himself forward. After a dozen breaths, he felt himself lighten as he finally left the magma zone.

Shen Luo's eyes suddenly brightened as he emerged into an enormous cavern. The cavern was huge, spreading out a few hundred feet wide. Below was a layer of blazing red magma, forming a large scorching lake that filled the lower part of the cavern. Boiling red bubbles in the lake constantly surfaced and burst, filling the entire cavern with a heat so intense it could drive one mad.

However, the temperature here was not nearly as unbearable as inside the magma. Upon emerging, Shen Luo even felt a wave of coolness wash over him, and he involuntarily took several deep breaths of the outside air.

Opposite the magma lake was a flat surface of red rocky ground, which appeared polished and tiled, somewhat like a square.

The red rock square was also quite large, with two to three hundred circular arrays that were about a foot in diameter, arranged like a chessboard. In the center of each array stood an empty crimson jade pillar that seemed to pass through to the core of the earth.

Within each array sat two members of the Fire Charm Clan, handcuffed, their hands tightly pressed onto the jade pillars. Their bodies emitted a shimmering red light while the circular array around the jade pillar rotated rapidly. Pure crimson flames spurted from the jade pillars, each giving off waves of exceptionally pure fire elemental force that shot up directly into the sky.

“The Fire Charm Clan indeed has unique techniques when it comes to controlling fire. They can actually refine such pure flames from magma.” On seeing this, Shen Luo silently appreciated them in his heart.

However, just as Huo San had described, long exposure to the molten lava, especially when attempting to summon earth fire, was harmful to the Fire Charm Clan. The bodies of the clan members on the Red Rock Square all showed patches of black spots, and they appeared to be struggling while summoning the earth fire, their bodies trembling slightly.

Shen Luo quietly observed this without making any moves.

A group of demon soldiers in dark red armor stood on the red ground, pacing back and forth, guarding these Fire Charm Clan members.

The demon soldiers were all quite strong, at least at the Late Nascent Soul Stage. Among them, there were even two or three at the Great Mahayana Stage.

It wasn't the demon soldiers that Shen Luo refrained from dealing with, but because according to Jin Li's information, Sheng Ying King and the other True Immortal Period Demons were right at the top of the cavern. Should any commotion occur below, they would certainly perceive it.

The two to three hundred red flames rose like huge fiery dragons dancing in the sky above the Red Rock Square. Then they converged into a towering fire pillar, about twenty or thirty feet long, before shooting straight into the sky, disappearing into the stone wall at the top of the cavern.

On the stone wall at the top of the cavern, a enormous crimson array was engraved. It hummed and emitted a devouring force that easily swallowed the giant fire pillar filled with terrifying strength of flames.

Shen Luo glanced at the array at the top a few times and quickly withdrew his gaze. Through a spiritual message, he communicated with Huo San inside the Heavenly Book Space, “Is there any detection array inside this magma cave?”

“There wasn't before. This cave is quite deep underground and our clan is rather weak. Sheng Ying King didn't bother much about it and just sent some demon soldiers to guard it. That's how I was able to escape. But whether there is a detection array now, I can't tell.” Huo San replied.

Upon hearing this, Shen Luo carefully scanned the cavern with his eyes and cautiously his divine sense to thoroughly search the cavern. However, he couldn't sense any prohibition-related energy.

“It seems there are none. It makes sense. Huo San escaped not long ago and Sheng Ying King is busy refining the treasures. He wouldn't have set up the prohibitions so quickly.” Finally assured, Shen Luo flew cautiously towards the corner of the Red Rock ground before landing and dispersing his mana.

“Great Immortal, have you already entered the magma cave? How are my clan members doing? Did they get punished because I escaped? Can I take a look at the outside?” Huo San hurriedly asked a series of questions.

“It's not convenient now. Stay obedient inside. The Fire Charm Clan isn't being punished, they are just normally summoning earth fire.” Shen Luo replied.

Hearing these words, Huo San slightly relaxed.
