As for Lin Feng and Qing Lin on the other side, after passing over the mountaintop plain where jagged stones stood below, they came to the side of a blood-colored pool about seven or eight zhang in area.

However, since this was not the once-every-three-years energy tide of the Tian Shan Blood Tale, the energy in the pool before them was extremely scarce.

Only in places two or three zhang deep in the pool could one faintly see a trace of red energy.

These red energies looked almost identical to fresh blood, viscous and bright red.

Occasionally, the blood-colored energy in the blood pool would continuously bubble up, forming blood bubbles that finally rose to the surface and burst.

At that moment, a thick strand of blood-colored energy would slowly seep out from those blood bubbles, like a blood-colored mist.

"Qing Lin, let's go."

Gazing at the blood pool below, Lin Feng immediately turned his head and said to the beauty beside him.

As soon as his words fell, he took the lead and shot forward, rushing straight into the blood pool below.

With a sudden explosion of the pool surface, Lin Feng's figure vanished into the blood pool.

Seeing this, Qing Lin behind him also did not hesitate, lightly tapping the ground with her jade foot, her delicate body likewise disappearing straight into the blood-colored water.

As for Lin Feng, who had plunged into the blood pool ahead, upon entering, the strand of blood-colored energy carrying a hint of fire poison surged upward, attempting to penetrate his body.

However, to him at this moment, these fire poisons were utterly insignificant.

He could easily condense a Dou Qi shield, thereby completely blocking them off outside.

At the same time, he swiftly dove downward at extreme speed.

After diving for less than three minutes, that familiar spatial barrier appeared before him.

However, this spatial barrier was merely a trick set up by the Dou Zong-level cultivator Jin Shi, and naturally it could not stop Lin Feng, a Dou Zun cultivator.

Moreover, he possessed the spatial talent of the Primordial Void Ancient Dragon clan.

Thus, with a flick of his figure, he strangely broke through that spatial barrier and entered beneath the blood pool.

"Whoosh~"

Not long after the former entered below, Qing Lin from behind closely followed and entered as well.

"Young master, the temperature here and that strange fire poison seem to have become much stronger."

Upon arriving here, Qing Lin, who was naturally inclined toward yin and cold, couldn't help but slightly furrow her brows, speaking with some surprise.

Because she possessed the Jade Snake Triple-Flower Pupil, she could see many things clearly.

Thus, she discovered that within the viscous blood-colored energy here, there were mixed in some rather concealed dark gray specks of light.

Within those specks of light, a faint fishy, scorching heat emanated, making her feel somewhat disgusted.

"Hehe, this is also why I came. Other volcanoes lack these fire poisons; only this place has them. I suspect this matter is certainly not that simple. So I brought you, little girl, to have a look."

Having said that, Lin Feng reached out his hand and gently pinched the delicate melon-seed face of Qing Lin, who had come to his side.

While speaking, Lin Feng's gaze also carried a hint of curiosity as he looked toward the thick blood-colored energy below.

Immediately afterward, he waved his hand, summoning the gray Strange Fire from within his body, forming a circular Strange Fire shield around himself and Qing Lin.

"Not far below is the volcano's mouth; let's continue descending."

Recalling the volcano entrance he had visited before, Lin Feng promptly took Qing Lin's small hand and dove downward again.

After continuing to descend several hundred meters, the two arrived at an area riddled with uneven depressions, below which lay numerous large and small pits.

Within these pits, ranging from hundreds of meters to several kilometers in diameter, gray smoke was constantly spewing out.

Of course, within that smoke lurked a fire poison so dreadful that even High-Stage Dou Zong cultivators regarded it with extreme apprehension.

This was also the reason why, after breaking through to Dou Zong, Lin Feng, despite possessing multiple Strange Fires, dared not venture down.

However, if one were to pass through these pits, one would truly have entered the interior of this volcano.

Thinking this, Lin Feng hesitated not, directly taking Qing Lin's small hand and plunging straight into one of the largest holes.

"Hiss~"

However, as the two just rushed into the lower stone cavern, where the surrounding scorching energy liquid had also heated the rocks to a dark red hue, the temperature surged violently; the fire poison, as if disregarding life, madly corroded the Strange Fire shield Lin Feng had created, emitting a 'hiss' sound that made one involuntarily frown.

However, in the place beneath this cavern, the previous viscous blood-colored energy suddenly vanished.

In its stead appeared an endless expanse of brilliant red magma.

Indeed, the magma here was not the fiery red of other volcanoes, but a deeper, more profound brilliant red.

Moreover, within these strange brilliant red magmas, the fire poison was dozens of times richer than that of the blood pool outside the volcano!

"Hiss, what terrifying fire poison! In such an environment, even Dou Zun-level cultivators who come and go would dare not venture deeper recklessly!"

Gazing at the visible dark gray spots within the surrounding magma, Qing Lin's rosy lips involuntarily opened, and she exclaimed in astonishment.

Hearing this, Lin Feng sensed the extremely dense, hitherto unseen dark red energy within those brilliant red magmas; immediately, his Flame Scripture swiftly circulated, drawing in the surrounding energy.

Naturally, before those energies entered his body, they would be refined by the Strange Fire, causing no adverse effect on him.

However, even this casual inhalation of his would, if done outside, require at least an arduous quarter of an hour of cultivation to possibly reach such a level.

One can imagine how rich the energy here is.

Thinking this, Lin Feng immediately exclaimed with a shocked expression: "I don't know whether a one-star Dou Zun would flee or not, but the cultivation speed here—I imagine even ordinary Dou Zuns would go crazy upon seeing it!"

At this moment, he gained yet another new understanding of this environment.

Before entering, although he had already made mental preparations, knowing that the fire poison and energy concentration here might exceed imagination,

he never expected it to be this rich!

However, compared to Lin Feng, who greatly liked this environment, Qing Lin, who was inclined toward yin and cold, felt rather averse to this place.

If it weren't for her needing to accompany her young master, she would not have come down here.

Of course, at this moment Lin Feng did not stop descending; instead, he increased his descent speed, rushing downward at full tilt.

Now he could hardly wait to see what lay below, and why this volcano could produce such incredibly rich energy!

As depth increased, the temperature and power of the surrounding magma's fire poison also grew exponentially.

Especially when the two descended to a depth of ten thousand meters, the surrounding fire poison and temperature were such that even a seven-star Dou Zun cultivator, upon seeing them, would have to turn and flee immediately.

However, even so, it still did not block the footsteps of Lin Feng and the two of them.

All that could be seen was that, under the protection of the surrounding strange fire shield, they continued to dive at extreme speed toward the volcano's base.

And at this moment, the concentration of energy in the surroundings was so rich that even some transformation mirror Fighting Saints, upon seeing it, would be quite envious.

"Master, how did you come to this kind of place?"

Just as Lin Feng, bringing Green Scale, dove to over twenty thousand meters, Xiao Ling's somewhat sleepy voice immediately rang out in his mind.

"Xiao Ling, you woke up just in time, quickly help me check if there's anything strange around here."

Upon hearing Xiao Ling wake up, Lin Feng immediately explained: "This is a place I've been before; I think there might be something extraordinary down there, so I wanted to come take a look—quickly activate your ability and help me search inside to see if there are any fire-attribute heavenly treasures."

"No problem, I'll look for it right away."

Upon hearing that Lin Feng had come to search for treasure, Xiao Ling instantly became interested and immediately nodded vigorously in agreement.

And as soon as her voice fell, she immediately closed her eyes, then activated her search ability, constantly searching for other items with strong fire-attribute energy.

"Huh?"

However, Xiao Ling had barely begun her search when she suddenly let out a slightly puzzled sound.

Immediately after, she shouted in Lin Feng's mind: "Master, I discovered some magma in a somewhat distant place below; when my sensory power searched toward it, it suddenly moved on its own toward a certain location, using the magma to block my search."

And while she was speaking, Xiao Ling also helped Lin Feng point out the location.

Upon hearing that, Lin Feng immediately felt a slight joy, his voice tinged with a bit of excitement: "In that case, let's go take a look."

As they spoke, Lin Feng pulled Green Scale and quickly dove toward the place Xiao Ling had indicated.

After all, Xiao Ling is a strange fire spirit; for the exploration of this magma, she is even more adept than Lin Feng.

Her speculation is surely not wrong.

"Young master, is there anything there?"

Seeing their young master suddenly change direction and dive toward another place, Green Scale looked at him doubtfully, her beautiful eyes full of confusion.

Upon hearing that, Lin Feng gave a light smile and explained: "Xiao Ling said there's some movement down below, so I came to take a look; perhaps we might find something."

However, if there really is something here that can survive in such a harsh environment, it certainly won't be easy to deal with.

Thus, while Lin Feng rapidly circulated his battle qi, he reminded: "Green Scale, if something can survive here, it's definitely not simple; be careful."

"All right, young master."

Upon hearing that, Green Scale also did not dare be careless; as her battle qi surged within her, the pair of jade-green beautiful eyes marked with three small dots immediately scanned every spot around them seriously, lest they be ambushed.

After all, Lin Feng had already told her about Xiao Ling before this.

Therefore, she also knew that little fellow was a strange fire spirit, especially sensitive to fire-attribute things.

However, when they dove another nearly ten thousand meters, both of them felt some pressure.

Around the magma, aside from the movement caused by the magma's own rolling, there was not the slightest bit of movement.

"Young master, I didn't see anything else existing."

Having arrived here, Green Scale's jade-green eyes, while scanning the surroundings, immediately spoke to Lin Feng beside her.

Upon hearing that, Lin Feng lightly nodded, then called out in his mind: "Xiao Ling, can you sense anything wrong around here? My soul power, even in the nearby volcanic magma, has not sensed anything."

Lin Feng's gaze fell upon the surrounding vivid red color, the magma even more intense than above, and his brows involuntarily furrowed slightly.
