I only have passive skills, so I'm extremely cautious

Fire meteors spewed out from the cave mouth, flew high into the sky, and fell in all directions. The volcanic ash spread rapidly like a black cloud covering the city.

I don’t know how long this Fengyan volcano has been holding back. This eruption made the people outside dumbfounded. If it was an ordinary volcanic eruption, it would be fine, but this contained a lot of unstable spiritual power.

The key is that among the things that were ejected, there were countless Fengyan beasts curled up into balls!

They scattered to every corner like flowers scattered by fairies, and they spread their claws before they landed. The sudden attack caught many people off guard, and they suffered heavy casualties.

"Go over there!" Huo Xundao shouted, leading the way, swinging his two swords, and the cross beam swept violently, killing five third-level Fengyan beasts that blocked the way with one blow.

The three jumped onto a rock and looked down at the overall situation from a high position.

Behind them, many people had already taken shelter here temporarily.

Woo——

There was no time to rest, and a huge flint with a diameter of 20 meters was falling straight towards them.

The terrifying flame spiritual power released was comparable to the full-strength attack of the peak of the small success realm!

Chen Zhong took Daju back and threw out with his right hand. More than a dozen spiritual talismans flew into the air with a "clatter".

The spiritual talismans exploded, forming a water shield with ripples. The water shields merged and a water wall stood up.

The flint collided, and the water and fire met, and immediately burst into smoke that covered the sky and the sun.

Before the smoke dissipated, there was another loud bang in the next second!

More flints fell, and under the continuous attack, more than a dozen third-grade water shields gradually became weak and could not hold on.

Huo Xundao took a step forward, "The sky is round and the earth is square, and all things are caged!"

Earth-level intermediate defensive spiritual skills!

The spiritual power flowed out, and a huge heavy cage condensed above everyone's head.

"Don't watch, move together!" A small success realm elder of the Beast Blood Sect roared, and took the lead in releasing defensive spiritual skills.

The people behind him took action one after another, and for a while they also ensured that this place would not be destroyed.

If you ask them why they don't just evacuate this dangerous place, the reason is simple.

Because they are greedy, waiting for the calm period after the volcanic eruption, and then enter the volcano to find out. If they run too far now, they will be beaten to it later.

So most people are avoiding or resisting, but not everyone has the strength to do so.

More than 50% of the spiritual warriors were smashed into meat patties by dense flints, and what is even more terrifying is the thick volcanic ash that is gradually spreading.

In the distance, people who inhaled a little volcanic ash all had purple and blue faces, and then knelt on the ground, without life, and burned from the inside out after a few seconds!

Seeing this scene, even Huo Xundao's face changed, and Chen Zhong took out a lot of defensive talismans from his arms and put a piece of clothes on Daju.

"This is Bingying Fruit, take it and eat it, it can effectively eliminate fire poison." Yang Qin took out a few small and exquisite blue fruits.

Chen Zhong swallowed three in one gulp and fed Daju two more.

Others were also anxiously taking precautions. Some who had no resources were scared and turned around and ran.

However, several people left the defense circle and were directly killed by the flint falling from the sky.

"Here it comes!"

Chen Zhong roared, reminding everyone.

It's not that he was worried about the lives of others, but he didn't want them to run around and cause loopholes in the defense.

Boom boom boom——

Volcanic ash came like a gray-black wave.

The defense circle built by nearly a hundred people was shaking violently, like grass swaying in a hurricane.

Rub rub rub!

The volcanic ash continued to erode, and rootless fire was born out of thin air. The flames burned fiercely, and the temperature was sometimes cold and sometimes hot.

The key is that the extremely fine fire poison smoke actually got in!

Fortunately, Chen Zhong and his friends did their homework well. The light of the talisman ensured that every pore on their bodies was closed, and the fire poison smoke had no way to get in.

However, most people were not so lucky, and their self-proclaimed effective precautions were useless.

Smoke and dust swarmed in through their eyes, pores, and other parts that could enter.

"Ah...ah..."

Soon, a large group of people had difficulty breathing and symptoms of cardiopulmonary failure. The violent fire spirit power was destroying their bodies wantonly, and their own spirit power began to resist itself.

Who can stand the fighting between spirit power in the body?

In just a few blinks, there were many human-shaped black debris on the ground.

But most of the dead were in the spirit body realm. After all, the blood surge realm had strengthened the body to a stage where the blood could effectively resist the fire poison and expel it when the qi and blood surged.

However, they could not continue to fight next. If they did not go back for treatment quickly, they would suffer from lifelong sequelae.

At this moment, the Fengyan Valley scenic area, which was originally intact, was completely destroyed.

The magma flowing down from the mountain burned nearly half of the buildings. One wooden pavilion after another lost its foundation, collapsed, and became fuel after bursting into sparks.

The wind and flame beasts stepped on the magma, like fish in water, and found the hiding spiritual warriors, dragged them out and shared them.

Many spiritual warriors who had no choice jumped out with the determination to die, and fought madly with the wind and flame beasts.

When the battle entered the white-hot stage, after the volcanic eruption gradually stabilized, more than a hundred blue water columns sprayed from the outside to the volcano, which contained a large amount of water spiritual power.

At the same time, the spiritual formation masters led by Fu Yun joined forces to gather the ice formation, and the frost quickly spread from the outside to the inside, preventing the expansion of magma and gradually forming magma rock.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, the imperial army began to advance and surrounded and killed the wind and flame beasts in a disciplined and organized manner.

Due to the invasion of water and ice spiritual power, the power of the volcano weakened, no more flint flew out, and the volcanic ash also drifted away.

The dark clouds pierce and the sun shines down. Everything seems to be over. People are refreshed and grateful to be alive.

"It's not over yet. The energy center underground has always existed, but it has only temporarily stopped the riot." Yang Qin suddenly whispered.

"Is it the essence of flame marrow?" Chen Zhong was looking forward to it.

Several figures flashed over, all of them with extraordinary temperament.

"Are you guys okay?" Fu Yun asked.

"It's okay." Chen Zhong and the other two replied.

Fu Yun pointed to the two people beside him and introduced, "This is Li Boyi, the master of Tianhuo Pavilion, and this is Chu Chen, the master of Beast Blood Sect."

He then introduced him to the two sect masters, "His name is Huo Xundao. You should all know him by his name. He is the grandson of Hall Master Huo Fei."

"I've heard about it for a long time!"

"When I saw him today, it turned out that a hero really comes out of a boy!"

The two middle-aged men praised each other for a while.

"This little brother's name is Chen Zhong. He is also an outstanding student of Tianyan Academy. His attainments in spiritual formations put me to shame!" Fu Yun patted Chen Zhong on the shoulder.

Li Boyi and Chu Chen looked at each other, amazed in their hearts, but with smiles on their faces, "If you can make Senior Fu sincerely praise you, we will just call you little brother!"

Chen Zhong was flattered and said, "You two seniors have spoken seriously."

He understood that Fu Yun was building momentum for him and wanted him to make friends with the upper class.

Chen Zhong could still feel Fu Yun's sincere appreciation of his talents and his kindness.

"Okay, now is not the time to be nagging. Let's go and see what the volcano is hiding!" Fu Yun waved his hand.

As a result, hundreds of people headed to Fengyan Volcano, which had stopped erupting.

Everyone was silent as they looked at the huge, dark and deep cave entrance. The terrifying heat was still overflowing, and the occasional flaming red color was frightening.

"Fengyan Ksitigarbha!" Li Boyi from Tianhuo Pavilion said suddenly.

Seeing everyone's confusion, he explained, "Our ancestors once mentioned that there is a naturally formed mysterious underground treasure hidden under the Wind Flame Valley, which contains countless fire treasures."

Finally, he added, "Of course, this is just a rumor."
