Family Rise by Daily Intelligence-Chapter 376 - 202: Brotherhood Within the Human Emperor Banner (Part 2)
The seemingly dead Volcano Well.
At this moment, magma suddenly shot up into the sky with a series of booms, crashing against the light shield and flowing back down. One stream after another erupted continuously, striking the light shield, causing Grand Elder Liang, who was presiding over the Magic Array, to pale slightly.
The Sixth Elder, with the lowest mana, groaned:
"Old Six, hold on and reinforce it a bit longer, the Red Lotus Earth Core Fire is about to emerge."
As he spoke.
A giant island slowly rose from the Magma Lake. On the island, a Tier Two Top-Grade Fire Candle Tree unexpectedly grew, with seven or eight fruits sparsely hanging from it, their skins fully ripened red, evidently mature.
"Fire Candle Fruit!"
The eyes of the Liang Family members lit up.
Not for any other reason.
Just for this one Fire Candle Tree, their trip was worth it.
The Sixth Elder said excitedly:
"Big brother, once the Red Lotus Earth Core Fire appears, it is sure to destroy this Spirit Tree. Please open a corner of the Array, and let me move the Fire Candle Tree out first."
The Sixth Elder was the Tier Two High-Grade Spirit Plant Cultivator among them.
Upon seeing the High-Tier Spirit Tree.
He too was excited like a hunter.
Grand Elder Liang was unmoved, only casting a Technique onto the center Array Plate. With a hum, a Spirit Light fell into the Magma Lake below.
At this moment.
The seemingly immobile island began to slowly rise continuously.
In the Magma Lake.
The massive body of the Cat Mountain Beast with a turtle shell face came into view; it was already at Tier Two Peak cultivation, one step away from Tier Three.
Grand Elder Liang’s face turned solemn.
He knew this trip couldn’t be so smooth, so he immediately changed his Technique, shouting loudly:
"Change Array!"
The four worked in tandem.
Stepping swiftly in a mysterious pattern.
Meanwhile.
Endless mana was infused into the Magic Array, which quivered slightly with a hum, then a spear materialized, shooting towards the face of the Cat Mountain Beast.
"Meow~"
The Cat Mountain Beast meowed harmlessly.
The next moment.
Bang bang bang!
A blue Demon Flower shot out from the Magma Lake, a petal fell, transforming into a shield that clashed with the spear.
Bang!
The spear flipped back.
And the petal shattered.
At the same time.
The other three petals of the blue Demon Flower split open, surprisingly transforming into three identical spears, swiftly shooting towards the light shield.
Obviously.
This Cat Mountain Beast was mimicking human Dharma Combat.
Grand Elder Liang squinted slightly, ceasing to cast Magic, but painfully slapped his storage bag, and instantly a Sword Pill floated in front of him. As he infused it with a Technique.
Boom!
A Tier Three Spirit Sword materialized.
With Grand Elder Liang making an empty gesture, the Spirit Sword cleaved through the three spears with a crash, its sword light unabated, slashing directly towards the head of the Cat Mountain Beast.
"Meow"
The Cat Mountain Beast squealed.
Its neck retracted swiftly.
Instantly retreating into its turtle shell.
"Clang!"
The Spirit Sword struck fiercely against the turtle shell, cracking it with a long fissure, almost splitting its body in two.
"Meow"
The Cat Mountain Beast cried plaintively.
Bang bang bang!
Thousands of fire pillars shot into the sky, hitting the light shield. The entire interior had turned into a sea of magma, and the Cat Mountain Beast’s figure disappeared without a trace.
When all the fire pillars fell.
The Magma Lake returned to tranquility.
Unfortunately.
The Fire Candle Tree vanished with the Cat Mountain Beast.
A round of Dharma Combat.
Consuming much of the mana of Grand Elder Liang and the others, Grand Elder Liang fared slightly better, while the others had turned deathly pale.
Grand Elder Liang slapped his storage bag.
Instantly, a pill bottle appeared, its cap opened, and Spirit Pills flew towards the other three:
"Quickly take the Recovery Pills, be swift, in less than half a cup of tea’s time, the Red Lotus Earth Core Fire will emerge!"
The Cat Mountain Beast must have hidden in the underground Dark River.
It won’t reappear for a while.
This is the most crucial moment now.
...
Volcano Well.
Liang Zhirun felt the tremors coming from the volcano below, he couldn’t help but step out and occasionally glance downward, muttering:
"I wonder what the Red Lotus Earth Core Fire truly looks like."
Liang Zhirun was very curious, but his heart also harbored some faint worries.
Just as he turned around.
Suddenly.
"Roar!"
Above his head.
At some unknown time, a female ghost hovered, her mouth opened, and the Extreme Cold Demon Chant erupted instantaneously, engulfing Liang Zhirun completely.
Liang Zhirun’s body became stiff instantly.
Right at this moment.
Three Exorcism Divine Thunders shot up from underground, hurtling towards his vital spots with a boom. At such close range, Liang Zhirun could not dodge.
The Black Tortoise Armor on him burst with a bang!
Crushed by the Divine Thunder.
Taking advantage of this split second.
Liang Zhirun’s entire body suddenly transformed into a cloud of white mist.
Rapidly fleeing in all directions.
In an instant, converging again, reforming into a human shape, Liang Zhirun looked around to see Fu Changsheng riding a Cyan Python, charging towards him.
Recognizing his attacker as Fu Changsheng.
A surge of old and new grudges filled Liang Zhirun’s heart:
"Little bastard, I didn’t seek you out, yet you came to court death, very well!"
Liang Zhirun’s thoughts shifted.
Instantly, a Heavy Water Pearl shot out, accompanied by him casting a Technique into it.
Buzz!
The surrounding space trembled slightly.
The Cyan Python in mid-air seemed to have lost its wings suddenly, falling abruptly, and Fu Changsheng felt an immense gravity pressing down on him, his bones creaking under the pressure.
