Chapter 1624: Chapter 1625 Volcano Chapter 1624: Chapter 1625 Volcano “Stick close to , you three; this secret realm is sowhat abnormal. If you stray too far from , I’m afraid I won’t be able to protect you!” Song Jian cautioned.
“Understood, understood!” The three of them nodded hastily in agreent. At this ti, Song Jian was their only lifeline to survival, and to safely exit the secret realm, they must cling to his powerful support.
“Also, in just over two days, we’ll be able to leave. Otherwise, should we find a safer place to hide for a while?” Liu Su couldn’t help but speak up.
“Yes, yes, the stone forest—that’s where we planned to hide before!” Guo Lian’s eyes lit up as he hurriedly spoke.
“Stone forest? What stone forest?” Song Jian asked in surprise. He had explored the surrounding area for over a hundred kiloters and hadn’t discovered any stone forest.
“It’s, it’s in that direction. It’s an underground stone forest with a very concealed entrance; those dark fog demons couldn’t possibly find it…” Liu Su asserted confidently.
“Alright, let’s go have a look then!” Song Jian decided after a mont of contemplation.
Actually, the best strategy would have been for all of them to hide in the Shattered Divine Realm, and then wait for two days before erging. By then, even if the dark fog demons surrounded them, Song Jian still had the power to fend off their attacks montarily, and could use the opportunity to escape the secret realm.
However, the Shattered Divine Realm was Song Jian’s private secret, his trump card, which couldn’t be so easily exposed in front of the three of them. The main issue was that the dark fog demons pursuing them were too close, and their speed too fast; even with Song Jian’s Demi-God level powers, he couldn’t shake them off. Now with three additional burdens, it was even less likely that he could get away from them.
“If nothing goes wrong, in at most ten minutes, that group of dark fog demons will catch up to us…and that’s not even including the Demi-God level dark fog demon!” Song Jian thought to himself.
At this mont, Song Jian had already sensed that the group of dark fog demons behind them was even larger than the group that had previously pursued him. Although his experience fighting and hunting dark fog demons gave him an impulse to turn around and fight, for the sake of his life, he decided it was better to run first.
Soon, Song Jian and the others changed direction, with Liu Su leading the way toward the underground stone forest they had ntioned.
The four of them ran for their lives, and after an indeterminate amount of ti, they saw a thin black line appear behind them. Looking far into the distance, this fine black line seed endless, like a sudden appearance of a black horizon.
Dark fog demons—that was a massive group of dark fog demons gathering together, forming a wave as mighty as a tidal surge, capable of smashing into shards anything that stood in their way.
“We have at most ten minutes before they catch up to us!” Song Jian said gravely. He was now contemplating whether to abandon the three and escape on his own.
“See that black mountain peak ahead? It’s right there!” Pointing at a slightly blurred mountain peak ahead, Liu Su panted heavily as he spoke.
Looking up, Song Jian saw a towering mountain peak in the distance, its body dark brown, with plus of white vapor rising from within. From afar, Song Jian could feel the heat waves hitting his face.
“Are you sure it’s near that mountain peak?” Song Jian asked in surprise. If even he could feel the scorching heat, it was imaginable how hot the mountain peak was. Likely, before even getting close, Liu Su and the others would faint from the heat and then be baked dry.
“That’s the place—it’s an active volcano that could erupt at any ti…” Liu Su’s forehead was slick with sweat as he gasped for breath, “The underground stone forest we discovered is near that mountain peak. As long as we enter the underground stone forest, we can hide from those dark fog demons…”
Boom~
Just then, a distant peak suddenly erupted with a roar, spewing black smoke from its summit, accompanied by countless sparks shooting up into the sky. From afar, the sight was quite spectacular.
Liu Su and her two companions were already exhausted, their speed gradually decreasing, when Song Jian, with a thought, summoned a majestic Golden Giant Dragon in front of them.
“Get on!” Song Jian commanded, leaping onto the back of the Golden Giant Dragon first.
Liu Su and the others were overjoyed. Given their current speed, they would probably have a hard ti outrunning the black mist creature. Without a word, they used their last bit of strength to jump onto the dragon’s back and then collapsed, gasping for air.
Feeling others mount its back, the Golden Giant Dragon Kamata seed sowhat dissatisfied. A shade of discontent flickered through its dark gold eyes, and it was about to vent its anger when Song Jian stopped it.
“Run, there’s a monster chasing us!” Song Jian slapped Kamata’s head and shouted loudly.
“A monster? What kind of monster warrants my, Kamata the Golden Giant Dragon, to shrink back and flee? I am a peak warrior of the Legendary Realm, from the Dragon Clan…”
Roar~
Following the direction Song Jian pointed in, Kamata cast a casual glance back and was imdiately at a loss for words. With an angry roar, it spread its massive wings and soared into the air like an arrow.
Kamata was incredibly fast, yet, its speed was not much different from Song Jian’s Sword Flight Art, which ant it couldn’t shake off the black mist creature. However, this speed was enough to give Liu Su and her companions so relief. At least they could reach the underground stone forest they ntioned before the black mist creature caught up to them.
The three individuals sprawled on Kamata’s back let out a breath, feeling like they had narrowly escaped death. Just a mont ago, they had genuinely feared that Song Jian would abandon them and flee alone.
“Song, Brother Song, we really owe you one this ti!” Liu Su said with a face full of gratitude.
If previously there was a competitive relationship between Song Jian and the disciples of the Divine Sword Sect, at this mont, their relationship had undergone a complete transformation.
The Golden Giant Dragon quickly flew toward the mountain peak. Gazing at the smoke spewing from the summit, Kamata seed quite interested, even harboring the thought of diving into the lava for a bath.
But Song Jian promptly stopped its next move, recalling it back into Pet Space. This was no ti for leisure, as a large group of black mist creatures was still in pursuit.
“Where is it?” Song Jian asked. Although they were still so distance from the volcano, sweat had already begun to bead on Song Jian’s forehead. The temperature here was more than ten tis higher than that of an ordinary volcano. Considering Song Jian’s physical condition, he wouldn’t be hurt even if he stepped barefoot into lava, yet the heat from this volcano was clearly exceeding his limits.
“Right there!” Liu Su and her companions were visibly weaker compared to Song Jian, looking like they were on the verge of collapsing, as they pointed forward with a low voice.
Facing the direction they were pointing, Song Jian saw a stretch of mountain rock with a crack in it. The crack was only wide enough for one person and seed bottomless. A faint white steam rose slowly from the crevice.
Song Jian’s eyes narrowed as he led the three of them toward the crack. As they approached, he suddenly discovered that the fissure, which was originally exuding white heat, was emanating a refreshing coolness. This contrast left Song Jian in astonishnt, but Liu Su and the others, as if they already knew, couldn’t wait to squeeze through the crack.
