Chapter 943: Volcano Souls
Yet, the lava beasts were just exterminated when more beasts crawled out of the volcanoes.
They were like spirits of the volcanoes, impossible to get rid of. Their prowess was terrifying as well.
Yang Jian furrowed his eyebrows, “The volcanoes have souls. How did this happen?”
Even though everything under the heavens could gain a soul, it was incredibly difficult for something like a volcano to get a soul.
Humans were the leader in terms of getting souls, being born naturally with sentience. After that were animals and then plants. Mountains, rocks, and wood were never alive, to begin with. Unless something that defied the heavens happened, it was impossible for them to gain souls.
Yet…
All of the volcanoes there had souls, and they were not the weak sort. Instead, they were incredibly strong.
“Could the gray mist have even corrupted these volcanoes? It’s the whole area within the Volcanoes of Disaster!”
Xiao Chengfeng’s sword danced around, killing the lava beasts as he spoke.
The Volcanoes of Disaster spanned thousands of miles. There were volcanoes everywhere. If all the volcanoes were sentient, then they would be facing an incredibly difficult situation.
“Did you forget the person who’s backing all of you? Once you reach a certain realm, giving life to thousands of beings is just a casual thing,” The drunkard said plainly as he looked around him, seemingly looking for something.
Yang Jian and Xiao Chengfeng were both startled at the drunkard’s words. In the expert’s courtyard, even the plants, the flowers, and the stones were unfathomable existences. Even a random piece of paper the expert threw away could become an unmatched spell.
The Fallen Immortal Mountain that he stayed in was already a place that exceeded all logic.
With the expert as an example, they were suddenly not that shocked anymore.
Yang Jian took a deep breath, “It’s just… The gray mist is horrifying. It was about to ignite the volcanoes.”
“There’s something strange here, follow me closely,” The drunkard said seriously before taking a step forward and flying over.
Around him were waves of mystical energy which eliminated the lava beasts around him.
Yang Jian and Xiao Chengfeng did not say another word before they followed.
They were incredibly quick, and they went deep into the mountains.
“Roar!”
Suddenly, a red figure shot out of a volcano they passed. Sharp claws headed right for the drunkard!
The drunkard raised his hand and pointed at the claw with a cold gaze
Boom!
The claw was suddenly blown apart, but the monster was different this time. The other monsters would die immediately, while this one merely lost a hand. Not only that, it let out a roar, and lava flowed out and reformed its hand.
The aura of a supreme being could be felt exploding from its body as it blocked the three of them.
At the same time, monsters came out from two other volcanoes as well, surrounding the three of them.
The three monsters were formed of lava, and they had humanoid shapes. However, they did not have legs. Their bodies were stuck on the volcano and looked like the soul of the volcano. They could not leave the volcanoes but were incredibly huge.
The three monsters covered the sky, looking down at three ants.
Large amounts of the smaller monsters came out. All of them looked at the three with eyes of fire and terrifying smiles.
Yang Jian and Xiao Chengfeng looked around seriously as their powers filled the heavens.
The drunkard raised his gourd and drank a mouthful of wine. After that, he rushed at the three supreme beings, “Perfect, I get to see how you taste when mixed with wine. Wine Swallows the heavens!”
His gourd flew to the sky and rapidly expanded, becoming as big as the supreme being monsters as it floated in the air.
Waves of suction came out. The monster’s bodies started to get distorted from being sucked in. Part of their bodies turned into lava and went into the gourd.
“Roar!”
However, with a roar, the lava in the volcanoes turned into a massive red claw and swiped at the gourd!
“Immortal Drunken Blade!”
The drunkard pointed at the gourd, and the wine in the gourd shot out and formed into a blade. It might not be a divine weapon, but it was stronger than any divine weapon in the world. It cut up that flaming hand, and with a force that did not diminish, pierced through one of the supreme being monsters.
However, the monster’s injuries were quickly recovered thanks to the nourishment from the volcano. It sent a fist at the drunkard.
“I’m undefeatable with wine. I can drink the rivers away!”
The drunkard let out a slight smile as he flicked his finger lightly. From the ground, a gulp of wine few out in front of him, and he drank it immediately!
After that, his powers rose rapidly. His right fist clashed with the lava monster’s fist.
Boom!
The lava monster’s whole arm exploded with its massive body. It disappeared from existence.
“Roar!”
The other two beasts let out crazed roars as they opened their mouths at the same time, spitting out red flames that could even pierce through space and disperse Wisdom. It sped toward the drunkard!
The drunkard flicked his finger again, drinking a second mouthful before he used his finger to draw a few lines in front of him.
Those lines condensed and formed a circular image in the air. Like a shield, it stopped the molten lava completely.
The shield quickly let out a golden glow, counter-attacking with great force. Not only did it swallow up the lava, it even launched a counterattack that wiped the two supreme beings away!
At the same time, Xiao Chengfeng moved with his sword in hand, his sword aura surged and filled the heavens.
“I’m on top of sword cultivation. All swords bow to me!” He shouted out before he pulled out divine sword after divine sword behind him. They danced around him, and pierced into the group of monsters, killing them all. The sword aura covered great distances, and his blade was enough to chill the heavens!
His terrifying sword aura caused a tornado, destroying everything in its way!
“The golden body is immortal, and the heavens are endless!”
Yang Jian flew in the air as his whole body glowed in a golden light. He suddenly had three heads, all looking in different directions. On the three heads, the third eye let out a mystifying light.
A terrifying power formed within, and shot out after that!
The light it shot out was not an intense one. It illuminated everything like the sun did, covering many of the monsters.
The moment the light landed on the monsters, their bodies all started burning in golden flames before they disappeared.
Even though there were many Wisdom Dictators among those monsters, they were still a distance away from Xiao Chengfeng and Yang Jian. They were merely born from volcanoes. Other than some minuscule talents and spells, they did not have anything amazing. So, they were not as strong as normal Wisdom Dictators, which was why Yang Jian and Xiao Chengfeng could kill them easily.
Even so, Xiao Chengfeng and Yang Jian were still using up a lot of their strength facing so many opponents. If they did not drink the expert’s wine before this, they would not have enough power to hold on.
