Eternal Sacred King-Chapter 1394: Sacred Volcano
"Heavenly Phoenix, what do you think?"
Su Zimo asked in a seemingly casual manner.
Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix smiled. "My thoughts are the same as Mo Ying's. I suggest that you accept the invitation and head to Penglai Island. The saber technique inheritance of Penglai Island is rather unique. If you take a look, you might be able to comprehend something new."
"Furthermore, you don't have to worry about safety on this trip to Penglai. No matter how audacious Penglai Island is, they won't dare harbor designs on you!"
"Don't worry, young master. I'll stay by your side for this trip as well and ensure that you return unharmed!"
Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix said confidently.
"That's great,"
Su Zimo nodded. "Since that's the case, let's take a look at Penglai Island. Heavenly Phoenix, make the arrangements."
"Alright!"
Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix bowed and retreated before long.
No one was more familiar with such things than him.
Su Zimo gazed at the back of Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix and his eyes flickered in thought as he murmured softly, "East Sea, East Sea…"
In less than an hour, everything was ready.
There were not many people accompanying him this time round and there were only two Conjoint Body Mighty Figures—Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix and Mo Ying. Of the remaining people, there were more than ten Dharma Characteristic Dao Lords.
Jing Ming and Jing Sheng who had a conflict with Su Zimo in the Dragon Soul Hall were among them as well.
They arrived at the seaside.
Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix's fingers changed continuously and shot out divine lights into the sea. He hollered softly, "Come on out!"
Not long after he said that, a huge shadow appeared beneath the surface of the sea not far away.
Immediately after, the surface of the sea surged and a massive object rose slowly, floating on the water with a gigantic turtle shell on its back like a massive piece of land.
Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix said, "This is the Dragon Turtle reared by Divine Phoenix Island. With it carrying us, we'll be able to reach Penglai Island in about ten days."
The Dragon Turtle was a pure-blooded ferocious beast.
It was said that there was a trace of dragon blood in its body as well.
Furthermore, this Dragon Turtle had already cultivated to the Conjoint Body realm!
Su Zimo and the others descended on the Dragon Turtle's back.
Without a single word, the Dragon Turtle moved its thick limbs and tore through the layers of waves, swimming towards the east at an astonishing speed!
From afar, it looked like a moving continent!
Su Zimo and the others floated on the surface of the sea for a whole 17 days.
In the past few days, they had encountered many powerful living beings in the sea as well. However, all of them chose to avoid the Dragon Turtle of Divine Phoenix Island when they saw it.
This day, a large piece of land appeared before them.
"We're here!"
Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix stood up slowly.
East Sea, Penglai Island!
The patrolling cultivators on the island had long noticed the situation on the surface of the sea and reported it immediately. Before long, a large group of cultivators welcomed them from Penglai Island.
The person in the lead looked extremely young and wore white robes with an extraordinary aura. He shouted from afar, "You're Fellow Daoist Long Mo, the young master of Divine Phoenix Island, right? I'm Mystic Frost. I've heard a lot about you. Meeting you today, I can tell that you're indeed outstanding and inspiring!"
Su Zimo smiled as well. "You're too kind, Fellow Daoist Mystic Frost."
Mystic Frost's gaze landed on Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix and Mo Ying behind Su Zimo and nodded. "The two of you can be considered as old friends. How have you been?"
"Greetings, Fellow Daoist Mystic Frost,"
Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix and Mo Ying bowed slightly.
Although the three of them were at the same cultivation realm, Mystic Frost was the young master of an island after all and had a noble status—the two of them must not be rude.
"Fellow Daoist Long Mo, please!"
Mystic Frost turned slightly and gestured invitingly, "Now that the Fusang Tree has blossomed, you have come at the right time, Fellow Daoist. Come with me to the Flower Admiration Pavilion."
"Alright,"
Su Zimo nodded and did not decline.
Under Mystic Frost's lead, the group of them advanced.
Before long, a towering mountain appeared before them. Lava was spewing from the mountain peak and steam surged into the skies!
"The Fusang Tree is in this volcano,"
Mystic Frost explained, "Normally, this volcano will go silent. However, once the Fusang Tree blossoms, the volcano will explode!"
"This is no ordinary volcano. This is the sacred volcano of Penglai Island. Even if Conjoint Body Mighty Figures fall in, they will be incinerated with ease by the lava in the center!"
At that moment, the Dharma Characteristic Dao Lords behind Su Zimo and the others were drenched in sweat.
They were still a full five kilometers away from the sacred volcano.
However, those Dharma Characteristic Dao Lords were already unable to endure it.
Mystic Frost smiled gently. "All of you can guard here. If you continue forward, all of you might die. As for Fellow Daoist Long Mo, there's naturally no need to worry."
Although Su Zimo was also at the Dharma Characteristic realm, with his Dragon True Body, the temperature almost had no effect on him.
"Fellow Daoist Long Mo, please follow me,"
Mystic Frost led the way and continued, "The Fusang Tree can't be seen from here. Our ancestor of Penglai Island once risked danger to establish a Flower Admiration Pavilion in an area of the sacred volcano."
"Once we ascend the sacred volcano and arrive at the Flower Admiration Pavilion, we'll be able to see the Fusang Tree clearly."
Su Zimo followed behind Mystic Frost indifferently.
After Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix arrived, a mysterious smile appeared on his face but disappeared quickly.
The closer they were to the sacred volcano, the more obvious the terrifyingly high temperature was!
The surroundings of the sacred volcano had long turned into ruins without any vegetation and was silent and scorching.
When they arrived at the foot of the sacred volcano, the difference between them gradually revealed itself.
Among them, the three Conjoint Body Mighty Figures behind Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix and Mo Ying were slightly flushed with a layer of sweat on their foreheads and panting slightly.
However, Su Zimo, Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix and Mystic Frost had calm expressions.
Although Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix and Mystic Frost did not say anything, their hearts skipped a beat.
They were all paragons of the Conjoint Body realm; one was the young master of an island while the other possessed a Divine Phoenix Bone.Both of them possessed shocking bloodlines and were naturally able to withstand that temperature.
However, Long Mo was only at the Dharma Characteristic realm and yet, his expression did not change at all!
The group of them continued ascending the peak.
Bang! Boom! Boom!
After ascending the sacred volcano, everyone could clearly hear the terrifying rumbling of the volcano!
The rumbling noise made everyone feel insignificant.
It was as though everyone would be burned to ashes if the sacred volcano was enraged and lava sprayed down from above!
Everyone did not stop in their tracks and were getting closer to the peak.
After walking for a while more, a gigantic pavilion finally appeared before them.
"It's right ahead, we're almost there,"
Mystic Frost pointed to the pavilion at the front and said before speeding up.
At that moment, the three Conjoint Body Mighty Figures behind Mo Ying and Mystic Frost were already panting and drenched in sweat. Their lips were dry and cracked.
Even Mystic Frost, Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix and Su Zimo blushed slightly.
Su Zimo was secretly shocked.
If the heatwave of the lava was already so powerful before they even reached the mouth of the volcano, how terrifying was the lava gushing out of the volcano?
