At this moment, he exerted all his strength to display his methods!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He took out a precious seal and threw it directly forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The magic treasure-level seal expanded rapidly in mid-air, turning into a mountain range, and crashed down with a tremor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The precious seal mountain blocked the gap of the volcano, forcibly stopping the gushing lava.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, the lava discharge was halved, reducing the immense pressure on the front line of the Huoshi Immortal City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meng Kui then took out a magic treasure-level gourd.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He opened the gourd stopper and poured out a vast river from it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The river water poured back directly, like a waterfall, into the top of the volcano.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Water vapor steamed, and for a time, smoke spread like a sea of clouds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These river waters were of course not ordinary river water, but special materials that Meng Kui had sourced from nature and refined many times, reaching the Foundation Establishment level!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sacrificing a large amount of river water, Meng Kui successfully slowed down the vicious trend of the magma spreading by another thirty percent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the river water in the gourd was all poured out, Meng Kui put away the gourd and the precious seal at the same time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The precious seal had blocked the eruption of magma, and its surface was already damaged by nearly half.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meng Kui could not care about the heartache; he stretched out his hands, waved his large sleeves, and performed another of his signature moves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Divine Ability—Universe in the Sleeve!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next moment, his two sleeves expanded and grew larger rapidly, with the sleeve openings as large as houses, pitch black and deep.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the sleeve openings, a powerful suction force erupted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Countless magma was grasped by this suction force, converging into two torrents, and poured into Meng Kui's sleeves respectively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meng Kui diverted the lava at the source, and with the strength of one person, forcibly suppressed the magma by thirty percent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Through the unremitting efforts of him and the people of the whole city, the spreading trend of the magma became slower and slower, and finally, after unwillingly swallowing a few edge buildings on the outskirts of the Immortal City, it completely stopped its steps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We won, we won, we won!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Huoshi Immortal City is saved, my home is saved!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hahaha!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huoshi Immortal City was full of cheers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Countless people jumped and cheered, shouted and yelled, extremely excited, but a small number of people still had worried looks on their faces, looking gloomy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among them were Zhu Xuanji and Fei Si.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhu Xuanji's eyes flashed with golden light, trying hard to look inside the mountain through the surface of Mount Huoshi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He knew very well that the magma problem was actually not the biggest one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The real difficulty was inside Mount Huoshi. More accurately, it was the countless Red Flame Demon Beasts in Mount Huoshi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Roar, roar, roar...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The roaring sound gradually overwhelmed the cheers and shouts of the whole city.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some people couldn't help but show confusion after hearing this movement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But more people reacted, and their faces turned pale one by one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Red Flame Demon Beasts!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's terrible, with the volcano shaking like this, the beast tide triggered will surely be unprecedentedly terrifying.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What to do? What to do?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The crowd panicked again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a few breaths, feeling the lava slowing down, endless Red Flame Demon Beasts rushed out from the lava.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were all in a state of violent rage!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whoever was living well, only to be turned upside down by a sudden cannonball, would they have any good mood?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Red Flame Demon Beasts rushed toward the Lava Immortal Palace like a tide.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They targeted the place where the shelling came from.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If one could hear their inner voices, it would surely be—revenge, revenge, revenge!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rushing at the very front were the Fire-Walking Snake groups.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bodies of the Fire-Walking Snakes were slender, like a flowing flame; they almost merged with the lava, as if they were everywhere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Following closely behind the snake groups were the Fire-Velvet Rat groups.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This kind of small but exceptionally fierce demon beast, in groups, rushed toward the Lava Immortal Palace at an astonishing speed, like a red river.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The spherical light shield supported by the Huoshi Immortal City was being violently gnawed by the rat groups!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among the rat groups, giant rats with the physique of elephants acted as leaders. Each such giant rat was a Jin Dan-level existence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The larger Flame-Treading Lizards, as long as they were Jin Dan-level, were as huge as small hills.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had thick limbs, their skin was covered with a layer of hard red flame scales, and their tails burned with flames; every spray could set off a flame storm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Flame-Treading Lizards hissed and roared, crashing into the Lava Immortal Palace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the true king among the Red Flame Demon Beasts was the Fire-Melting Demon Ape!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These demon apes were one or two zhang tall, their bodies covered with thick fur. The fur was almost all bright red, pure and uniform, red as fire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The demon apes bared their fangs, their eyes wide open, and each of their bodies was burly and strong. Many demon apes kept beating their chests, roaring, and the howling sound shook the sky and the earth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among all the demon beasts, the demon apes had the highest intelligence, which also made them the most threatening beast group.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In addition to these three main forces, there were a large number of Red Rock Demon Heads.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They emerged from the lava one after another, slowly floating in the air, surrounding the Lava Immortal Palace from the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These stone-like heads were dense, thousands upon thousands, in unprecedented numbers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The demon beasts knew the source of the shelling and treated the Lava Immortal Palace as the object of revenge. But the demon beast tide was too huge, coupled with the state of rage, leading many demon beasts that lost their minds to collide blindly everywhere. Among them, a large part rushed directly toward the Huoshi Immortal City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was nothing to say. Zhu Xuanji and other Jin Dan cultivators were stationed on the front line, fighting hard to kill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a time, the battlefield fell into a stalemate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Zhuo's shot simply poked a hornet's nest!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He completely angered the extra-large Red Flame Demon Beast community in Mount Huoshi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meng Kui at the top of the mountain was also constantly taking action, with Nascent Soul-level spells covering everywhere, killing many Red Flame Demon Beasts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But more demon beasts emerged from the lava continuously, and they could not be killed fast enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Damn it!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meng Kui cursed fiercely, because he felt the presence of Nascent Soul-level life aura in the beast group.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed to be a Fire-Walking Snake!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was hidden in the lava, its aura flickering. And it was precisely this unsheathed sword that put more psychological pressure on people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the Huoshi Immortal City, the cheers of the citizens were gone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They watched in horror as the huge beast group spread over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The demon beasts were so numerous that they were simply overwhelming! Under such a tide, a person was so small and helpless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ding-sized, underground secret base.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom, boom, boom...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Along with the battle on the ground, this underground base also shook from time to time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sun Lingtong and Yang Chanyu were hiding inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The volcano erupted, the demon beasts are attacking the city!\" Yang Chanyu had not cut off contact with the outside world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such a major event, she was of course aware of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sun Lingtong, what is going on?\" Yang Chanyu looked at Sun Lingtong, her intuition telling her that this matter seemed to be related to the Sun Lingtong in front of her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sun Lingtong rolled his eyes and spread his hands: \"I don't know either, why bother with these things?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Now the whole city is in chaos, almost everyone is doing their best to defend their homes.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This opportunity is rare! Let's think about where it is most appropriate to take action?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Chanyu was not easily distracted; she narrowed her eyes and stared at Sun Lingtong with deep meaning: \"Why do I feel like you don't seem surprised at all?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sun Lingtong nodded: \"Surprised, of course I'm surprised, but does this have anything to do with us?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We are not people of Huoshi Immortal City; even if Huoshi Immortal City is destroyed, we can just walk away.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Now is the weakest time for all major forces; if you want to do something, do something big. What do you think of those cloud merchants who just entered the city?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Chanyu was unmoved: \"Your behavior of continuously changing the subject is really suspicious. Tell me, what is your relationship with that Ning Zhuo?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I didn't notice it during the previous Jin Dan melee.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The more I think about it recently, the more I feel something is wrong. You did so much, made me play a disguise, made me forge, and produced a fake Demon Sect True Scripture.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As a result, after the Jin Dan melee, you didn't have any follow-up treasure-stealing actions at all; the Jin Dan melee was more like a play.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What about the big actions and big moves you talked about?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why do I feel that our actions are just to clear the suspicion of that Ning Zhuo and reduce his pressure.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"After all, the previous rumors were very unfavorable to him.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sun Lingtong rolled his eyes again: \"Hey, you think too much, isn't that too much?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I really wanted to take action during the previous Jin Dan melee, but the melee didn't really break out, did it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That mechanical sickle of Zheng Danlian was too fierce! Even the Jin Dan disciples of the Taiqing Palace had no power to resist.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In this situation, how could I dare to do any big business?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sun Lingtong explained to this point and added: \"But this time, these cloud merchants are different from the three major families.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They are outsiders after all, and the magic tools and treasures they can carry are strictly regulated.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Even if they have a Nascent Soul-level cloud whale, this behemoth is left very far outside the city and is not suitable for catching us.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I heard: this team of cloud merchants plans to hold an auction in the near future, and there are many high-end cultivation resources among the auction items.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"For example, there are three drops of the water-attribute merit treasure, 'Highest Good is Like Water'!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hearing this, are you not tempted yet?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Chanyu sneered: \"Of course I have heard this news. But there are only three drops of 'Highest Good is Like Water'; if you want to steal it and use it on yourself to wash away our marriage contract, it is still far from enough.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sun Lingtong sighed: \"What are you talking about, I...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as he said this, Sun Lingtong's face changed drastically, and he turned his head to look in a certain direction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He shouted: \"Who is it?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Chanyu was instantly on guard, taking out her magic treasure, but the entire underground base was empty, with no one in sight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She showed a look of confusion and looked at Sun Lingtong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sun Lingtong whispered: \"Is it an illusion?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was also not very sure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately, his eyes flashed with cold light, and he said seriously: \"But in any case, this Ding-sized underground secret base can no longer be used; we must transfer immediately!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Chanyu had no objections.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before leaving, Sun Lingtong delayed for a moment and set up many traps in this Ding-sized underground secret base.\u003C\u002Fp>",1953,"2026-06-17T23:33:12.660Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","503eda31abcff9cb1113162a10b97aad9e8804ddaddfa4b8fe98053878f17910","immortal-craftsmanship-chapter-256","immortal-craftsmanship-chapter-254",783,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fimmortal-craftsmanship-cover.jpg"]
