Mo Fan arrived at the opening of the volcano.
He looked down and frowned in disappointment.
There was no sign of blazing lava, he only saw a pitch-black hole. There were volcanic rocks everywhere, but they had been left here many years ago. They were ice cold, not giving off any heat.
Don’t tell me it’s an inactive volcano?, Mo Fan thought.
He did not have any backup left. If he did not awaken the true Four-Eyed Bird, he had no idea how he could fight the Sea Skeleton King.
“Let’s hope the little cub can hold the Sea Skeleton King off a little longer…” Mo Fan mumbled after catching a glimpse of a white figure disappearing into the distance.
Mo Fan lifted his gaze and saw the Sea Skeleton King was less than several kilometers from him. He felt like a giant demon was looking down at him.
That shameless little cub, wasn’t he giving off an emperor’s Aura? How could he run away as soon as the Sea Skeleton King arrived!?
The Sacred White Tiger of Tianshan Mountain was seriously as timid as a donkey!
Even his final backup had run away. Mo Fan looked down at the dead volcano. He felt like he was being forced to the edge of a cliff.
There was no way he could beat the Sea Skeleton King. The creature was just as strong now as it was when it first showed up at the coast of the Magic City. It might not be able to maintain its strength for a long time, but that was already plenty enough for it to kill Mo Fan!
A huge blast came from the sky. The Sea Skeleton King was worried that the Four-Eyed Bird might find lava inside the volcano. It tore the stormy clouds apart, pouring a huge waterfall into the volcano!
Other volcanoes released lava and huge clouds of ashes, and all living creatures that could not escape in time would perish. However, the volcano in Xixiong City was being filled with a waterfall instead!
There was no way the volcano would have any fire in it!
“Screw it, it’s not like I have a better choice!” Mo Fan decisively hugged the Four-Eyed Bird to him and jumped into the pitch-black hole as he saw the waterfall approaching the volcano.
—
Mo Fan was falling rapidly in the dark.
Most importantly, the falling water was only inches from his ankles. Mo Fan began to regret his action. He was just going to be stuck inside the hole. The Sea Skeleton King had ten thousand different ways to kill him!
The Four-Eyed Bird was growing more excited. It even had the urge to beat its wings and fly out of Mo Fan’s arms, but it looked at Mo Fan and realized it would be faster if it stayed with Mo Fan.
Mo Fan was feeling a great chill and an overwhelming force behind him. He realized the water was going to crush him to pieces no matter what he found inside the hole.
The hole was extremely deep. The volcano was only around two thousand meters tall from the outside, but Mo Fan felt like he had fallen more than two thousand meters into the mouth of the pit.
The volcano was surrounded by the sea. Mo Fan realized he had already fallen below the water level.
The Four-Eyed Bird could not wait any longer. It broke free of Mo Fan’s arms and dove deeper into the darkness.
Mo Fan tried to grab the Four-Eyed Bird, but he suddenly slammed into the ground. He broke his nose and bones as he failed to stop in time.
To make matters worse, the terrifying waterfall smashed right down on him, leaving him in great pain. It almost broke every bone in his body.
Normally, a ferocious blow would only hit him once, but the waterfall was constantly hitting him with great force. Even with his demon flesh, he was struggling to withstand the pressure.
His consciousness started fading away as he lost control over his body. Even the pain he was under was turning numb.
He could hear the faint cries of the Four-Eyed Bird, and the waterfall finally came to an end.
The Four-Eyed Bird beat its wings and landed on Mo Fan’s flattened chest.
Water had filled up the inside of the volcano and formed a lake. Mo Fan was floating motionlessly on the water. Some of his body parts looked like they only had a single layer of skin left.
The Four-Eyed Bird turned around and saw scorching lava leaking out of a nearby fissure. It even set the cold water on fire after touching it.
The lava was enticing the Four-Eyed Bird. If it flew over and pried open the wall, it would immediately be bathed in pure lava and be reborn!
However, it was hesitating, sitting there like a little sparrow.
It eventually moved its gaze away from the lava and looked at Mo Fan’s crushed chest.
It jumped several times on the spot and then dove into Mo Fan’s heart.
Mo Fan’s body was already mashed beyond recognition. The Sea Skeleton King was determined to kill him.
His chest was broken, and his heart was crushed. He was already a dead man who had died a horrible death.
Thud!
However, his broken heart suddenly beat once after the Four-Eyed Bird dived into it. The sound was oddly clear inside the cave.
Thud!
Mo Fan’s heart beat again. His body shuddered with it.
The body started moving after some time, but in a weird manner. It was more like a walking corpse.
Something was dragging his incomplete body toward the wall with lava leaking out of it.
It was moving slowly. If anyone was watching it, they would be spooked, as they might a.s.sume it was a zombie looking for food inside the cave, especially when the body was already damaged beyond recognition.
It continued to move across the water, and finally reached the wall.
It had lost many of its fingers. Its arm was so pulped that only its skin remained whole.
However, it was reaching out its hand like a thirsting man trying to reach the water that was flowing out of a rock. The only difference was it was trying to reach lava instead!
The scorching lava flowed across its hand. Most of it had dropped to the ground, where the tattered hand scooped the lava up.
The body lowered its head and drank the lava.
The scorching lava flowed down Mo Fan’s throat and set him on fire.
Ordinary people would have burned into ashes. However, the lava was like fresh blood to Mo Fan.
His heart was recovering amid the scorching flames. It was soon pounding heavily in a steady beat!
The blazing lava solidified and reforged his bones, ribs, arms, and legs.
