Chapter 1738 – Entering Inferno Valley
Zhao Hai stood beside the Inferno Valley with a calm expression on his face. He was currently located on the Black Tiger Gang’s side of the valley. Although the Black Tiger Gang built several bases near the valley for defensive purposes, it was generally for holding the area. The Black Tiger Gang doesn’t utilize the Inferno Valley as much as the Roaring Flame Sect.
The Black Tiger Gang’s refining techniques weren’t up to par. Moreover, they had inferior fire control compared to the Roaring Flame Sect. Because of this, they don’t have the means to control the earth fire. It must be known that not everyone can use earth fire. Even the Roaring Flame Sect’s refiners would be afflicted by fire poison, not to mention other people.
Looking at the Inferno Valley, Zhao Hai couldn’t help but let out a long breath. This was indeed the Inferno Valley. It was a huge hole in the ground that was like a cauldron, a burning hot cauldron.
Zhao Hai waved his hand, then Laura and the others appeared beside him. Although the Inferno Valley looks like a huge cauldron, the sight was magnificent. Naturally, Laura and the others wanted to look at it with their own eyes. It was indeed much better compared to what they see on s.p.a.ce’s screen.
After Laura and the others appeared, they looked at the Inferno Valley with glittering eyes. The scenery of the valley was indeed very good.
Seeing the excitement on their faces, Zhao Hai couldn’t help but smile as well. He liked them being like this. He was now looking for an opportunity for them to appear in front of everyone so that they wouldn’t be stuck inside the s.p.a.ce.
After some time, Laura and the others calmed down. Laura looked at Zhao Hai and said, “Brother Hai, let’s go explore what’s inside.”
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, “Alright, then let’s go.” He waved his hand as the h.e.l.l King’s s.h.i.+p appeared beside him. The s.h.i.+p was only a meter long at this moment. Zhao Hai and the others disappeared into the s.h.i.+p. Naturally, the s.h.i.+p stayed in its current size. But one could see little versions of Zhao Hai and the others standing on the top deck of the s.h.i.+p.
Once they got on the h.e.l.l King’s s.h.i.+p, Zhao Hai waved his hand. The s.h.i.+p quickly flew towards the Inferno Valley. From afar, it looks like a toy boat has been thrown into the fiery valley.
The s.h.i.+p was able to swiftly enter the Inferno Valley. There was a layer of s.h.i.+eld outside the h.e.l.l King’s s.h.i.+p. This s.h.i.+eld blocked the s.h.i.+p from the surrounding earth fire.
In fact, the s.h.i.+p didn’t just block the earth fire. If someone looks closely, they would find that the h.e.l.l King’s s.h.i.+p was also absorbing the earth fire. Then it converted the earth fire into its own power.
Before long, the h.e.l.l King’s s.h.i.+p arrived beside a large magma river. Without hesitation, Zhao Hai commanded the h.e.l.l King’s s.h.i.+p to fly into the magma river.
Upon plunging into the magma river, Zhao Hai and the others immediately felt that their surroundings had been covered by a thick fiery liquid. It was in a shade that they had never seen before.
However, Zhao Hai didn’t care about this. In front of him was a projection of the situation around the s.h.i.+p. Naturally, there was nothing else shown except for more magma.
Looking at the situation around them, Laura turned to Zhao Hai and said, “Brother Hai, do you think there’s any spirit stones in this place?”
Zhao Hai smiled and said, “I don’t know. However, we didn’t come here for spirit stones. We have a lot of those inside the s.p.a.ce. If there are some here, I’m not too interested in picking them.”
This wasn’t Zhao Hai being arrogant, he was telling the truth. The s.p.a.ce has all kinds of mineral lodes that produce materials on a constant basis. Among these resources, the s.p.a.ce has spirit stones the most. The spirit stones of the s.p.a.ce have reached an astonis.h.i.+ng amount. If Zhao Hai took them all out, then he would immediately become the richest person in the Great World of Cultivation.
Hearing Zhao Hai, Laura couldn’t help but smile faintly as she said, “Who said we should mine those spirit stones. I’m only asking if there are any in this place”
Zhao Hai nodded, “There might be….” But as he said this, his expression suddenly changed. Then the h.e.l.l King’s s.h.i.+p suddenly went downwards.
As soon as the h.e.l.l King’s s.h.i.+p dived downwards, a very fast stream of magma flew over it. Laura couldn’t help but be stunned, “I didn’t expect undercurrents to be in the magma.”
Cai’er shook her head and said, “This isn’t undercurrent, it’s an attack. Something controls the magma, and is hidden inside it. I haven’t found it yet.”
Hearing Cai’er, Laura and the others stared. Laura immediately turned to Zhao Hai and said, “Brother Hai, what do we do now?”
Zhao Hai replied, “We’ll be careful. If that thing attacks us once more, it would leave traces. I’ll go take a look at what that thing is. To actually survive inside this magma, it should be quite powerful.”
Hearing Zhao Hai, Laura and the others stared, then their eyes shone. Since Zhao Hai said so, they also wanted to take a look. If it’s a lifeform, then they would definitely want to send it to the s.p.a.ce.
Zhao Hai and the others didn’t have to wait for too long. After a while, another stream of magma hit the h.e.l.l King’s s.h.i.+p. But this time, Zhao Hai was more vigilant, so it was impossible for the enemy to catch him off-guard. However, Zhao Hai was still disappointed because he couldn’t pinpoint where the enemy was.
Originally, Zhao Hai thought that once the enemy attacked, he would immediately detect it. However, he soon found that he was wrong. The magma stream disappeared as quickly as it appeared. There were no traces left behind.
Zhao Hai’s expression was somewhat ugly. He was confident in his own spiritual force, and he was more confident in the s.p.a.ce. It was impossible for the s.p.a.ce to not detect anything. But now, he discovered that the s.p.a.ce wasn’t able to detect the enemy.
Cai’er’s expression was also not attractive. She was directly connected to the s.p.a.ce, yet she was unable to find the enemy. This caused her to feel disappointed.
Zhao Hai looked around one more time before he turned to Cai’er and said, “Cai’er, you control the h.e.l.l King’s s.h.i.+p while I go and take a look.” Cai’er nodded. She didn’t say anything, she was confident in Zhao Hai’s strength.
Zhao Hai’s ability to control fire has improved by a lot, mainly because of the Roaring Flame Sect’s stone tablet.
Zhao Hai moved and disappeared from the h.e.l.l King’s s.h.i.+p. Meanwhile, Cai’er paid attention to the surroundings while Zhao Hai appeared among the magma.
Zhao Hai’s body was special, plus he had excellent control over fire. So upon appearing, he immediately disappeared into the magma.
After Zhao Hai disappeared, he immediately paid attention to the surroundings. The h.e.l.l King’s s.h.i.+p encountered several attacks after that, but the enemy has yet to be found.
Zhao Hai frowned. This was the first time he encountered something like this. And to be honest, he didn’t feel so good. Being attacked without the ability to retaliate was something that Zhao Hai hasn’t experienced ever since he transmigrated.
Zhao Hai scanned through the techniques that he had learned to see which can be used at this time. Then his eyes lit up.
The Infinity Technique was a supporting technique that allows Zhao Hai to communicate with inanimate objects. The air, the rocks, the water, he can communicate with them all. The Infinity Technique was made by Buddhists who believe that there are mysteries all around them.
Not only can the Infinity Technique communicate with inanimate objects, it also made the user favorable in the sense of the targets. Zhao Hai used the Infinity Technique in the past. But at that time, he used it to hide his traces. Because of this, he didn’t think of it immediately.
Now, Zhao Hai felt that the Infinity Technique would be useful for him. He can communicate with the magma to find out about the attacker.
Thinking of this, Zhao Hai immediately made hand seals to use the Infinity Technique. Then his spiritual force spread around him.
Zhao Hai slowly felt a sense of intimacy from all around him and knew that he had succeeded. In fact, with Zhao Hai’s current strength, he can use the Infinity Technique without the hand seals. However, it became a habit that he has yet to get rid of. Moreover, he found that the technique would be stronger if he used hand seals.
The sense of intimacy around him became stronger and stronger. Zhao Hai knew that this was the feeling that the magma sent towards him. He then sent out messages to ask the magma and see if there’s any information he can get.
Zhao Hai felt that he was standing amidst a sea of spirits. The spirits ignored him at first before they got closer to him. Although they can’t speak, they were able to express their feelings. It was their own method of communication.
But disappointingly, the magma didn’t offer any good information. Zhao Hai also knew how limited this type of communication was. Thinking of this, Zhao Hai moved and released a dao avatar. This was the dao avatar that was a.s.sociated with the Infinity Technique.
When the dao avatar appeared, Zhao Hai felt his Infinity Technique becoming more powerful. His communication with the magma also improved. Zhao Hai asked the magma once more.
