Their group's mission location was Mount Wrath.
Holding the map, Shang Yanting ran through the mountains and forests following the route drawn by his senior brother.
"hiss!"
Behind him, the tenth senior brother suddenly let out a soft hum.
Shang Yanting stopped in front of him. "What's wrong?"
"It's nothing, I just got bitten by a poisonous insect."
The tenth senior brother touched the back of his neck, where a lump the size of a thumb suddenly appeared.
Don't you have any insect repellent powder?
"I used it."
But they left behind several insect repellent powders before they left, so he tried to save some and didn't use much.
Shang Yanting tossed him a bottle of insect repellent powder from his pocket. "Everyone check yourselves, drink water, and set off immediately after counting to thirty."
They were there from day to night.
We trekked through the mountains and forests all night, and when we got hungry, we ate the pancakes made by our senior brother on the road.
They arrived before dawn the next day.
Rather than calling it a raging demon mountain, it's more accurate to describe it as a fiery mountain or an ongoing volcano.
Lava flows from the crater, spewing out lava from time to time. But not much flows out; most of the lava stops flowing and solidifies halfway up the mountain, giving it a hellish feel.
Wait for the crowd to approach.
The volcanic eruption emitted a unique, sulfurous odor that grew stronger. The temperature also rose, accompanied by the constant roar of lava breaking through the earth's crust.
There was no one down the mountain; they must have been the first to arrive.
The tenth senior brother looked at the crater and swallowed hard. "Are we really going to go up?"
"nature."
Shang Yanting led the way and began climbing the mountain.
Due to volcanic eruptions, the surrounding vegetation is sparse. The higher you go, the less vegetation there is; most of the mountain is bare. The surface is extremely steep, and in many places there is nowhere to put your feet.
The higher they climbed, the hotter it got. They had already taken off their cotton-padded coats and were now shirtless. The sweat evaporated quickly as soon as it touched their skin.
Having climbed about two-thirds of the way, the amount of flowing lava around us increased significantly.
The four senior students had long since finished distributing the last water bottle, their throats were so dry they were practically burning.
The massive loss of water caused them to become severely dehydrated, making it increasingly difficult for them to climb the mountain, and they could barely speak.
"Senior brother."
Just then, a hairy paw appeared in front of them, with a water bottle about the size of a raccoon hanging on it.
This is just the right time!
The tenth senior brother glanced at Shang Yanting, and seeing that he did not stop him, he took the water.
"Thanks!"
The four drank about half a pot of water, adjusted their condition, and continued climbing.
There was more lava around them, and they got so close that sparks even splashed onto them.
Everyone was burned by the lava to varying degrees, especially the clothes that the twelfth senior brother had wrapped around his waist spontaneously combusted. If he hadn't quickly thrown the clothes away, he would have been burned alive.
However, hard work pays off.
The trial token has been found, it's about ten meters above Shang Yanting!
It emitted a dazzling golden light, and floated above the mountain peak, with lava covering the ground below.
How can they obtain it?
The four fellow disciples all looked troubled. They should have brought a long stick with them; were they going to have to go back down and do it all over again?
Just as the group was hesitating, Shang Yanting put down the raccoon he was carrying on his shoulder and said, "Stay here."
He changed into his gleaming gold armor, pushed off the ground with his feet, and leaped into the air toward the direction of the trial token.
He jumped five meters in one leap.
Just as he was about to fall into the lava, the Radiant Golden Sword suddenly appeared, thrusting towards the ground to gain leverage and leaping forward again.
