They didn't know how far they had fled, but the road ahead was blocked, and two huge stone gates appeared. At the top of the stone gates were four large characters: "Rock River Purgatory!"
The writing is faded and appears to be hundreds of years old.
"There's no road!" Wang Hao's expression changed.
To the left of the stone gate is a river of crimson lava, and to the right is a rock wall as hard as iron.
Wang Hao stopped below the stone gate, thinking to himself, "Could this be the prison where black market thugs are held?"
At the same time, he was also considering whether to release the criminals in the prison to fend off the black monsters that were chasing after them.
Unfortunately, both stone doors were sealed with arrays, and Wang Hao had no time to break the seals, so he couldn't open the stone doors.
"Aww!"
The black monster caught up and, seeing Wang Hao blocked outside the stone gate, let out an excited cry. It sped up and quickly caught up with him. In its eyes, this tiny human was now at its mercy.
"It seems I have no choice but to fight with all my might. It'll be a good opportunity to test my limits."
The spiritual energy and true energy within Wang Hao's body began to circulate simultaneously, flowing along their respective meridians without interfering with each other, yet they also complemented each other.
Just then, the black monster extended two hard tentacles, each tens of meters long, and attacked Wang Hao.
"Heavenly Heart Sword Bell".
The black monster's two tentacles struck the golden bell formed by sword energy, producing a deafening roar that shook the stone walls on both sides, causing many fragments of rock to fall off.
The black monster let out a sharp cry, and strands of true energy gathered on its body. A dark red mass appeared in its abdomen, which surged up, passed through its neck, and spewed out of its mouth.
A crimson flame covered the entire space, forcing Wang Hao, who was inside the sword bell, to dodge.
"Heavenly Heart Shatters the Sky!"
Wang Hao pushed off the ground with both feet, leaped into the air, and swung the Yin-Yang Profound Iron Sword Embryo towards the head of the black monster.
Just as Wang Hao drew his sword, a chilling aura burst forth from the blade, and a scene of swirling snow appeared around him, covering a space of ten feet in radius.
The strange phenomenon of flying snow ten feet high appeared, but before the snowflakes could fall to the ground, they were evaporated by the high temperature of the lava river and turned into wisps of white smoke.
Seeing Wang Hao's sword swinging towards him, the black monster simultaneously mobilized its eight tentacles to attack Wang Hao, protecting itself completely.
Facing eight tentacles at the same time, even with his fast movement speed, Wang Hao was in grave danger, almost getting entangled by the tentacles every time.
Although Wang Hao is now using both true qi and spiritual qi simultaneously, he is still unable to combine the two powers into one. It feels like holding a rocket in his left hand and a rocket launcher in his right.
However, no matter what, the rocket could not be loaded into the rocket launcher and could only be used as a hammer for attack.
Wang Hao threw out a lightning bead, then quickly used the Wind-Riding Flying Dragon Shadow technique to retreat.
The Thunder Pearl was extremely powerful, so Wang Hao immediately retreated to the side of the stone gate, circulated his spiritual energy, put on an Ice and Fire Qilin Armor, and activated the array patterns inside.
A roar of a Qilin rang out, and Wang Hao's body emitted two colors of light: crimson and dark blue. The two colors of light condensed into a huge phantom of a Qilin, which protected him within the phantom.
"boom!"
The Thunder Pearl exploded beneath the black monster, unleashing terrifying lightning power.
Strands of white lightning, like celestial blades, stretched dozens of feet away, accompanied by thunderous sounds.
Countless bolts of lightning surged forth, like fine, intricate snake patterns, completely enveloping the black monster.
Valley nail The black monster's body turned extremely charred, wisps of smoke rising from it. It was also struck by lightning, which cleaved three bowl-sized holes in its body. These holes were also charred, but no blood flowed out.
"Aww!"
After being briefly paralyzed by the lightning, the black monster immediately let out a deafening roar, its huge eyes turning completely blood red, and charged towards Wang Hao.
"Its vitality is too strong. It didn't die even after being hit by the lightning pearl."
Since the black monster had already been severely injured by the Thunder Pearl, it would definitely be on guard. Even if Wang Hao threw out another Thunder Pearl, it wouldn't be able to hurt it.
Besides, at such close range, if Wang Hao were to throw the Thunder Pearl, he might kill himself instead of the black monster.
Just as the black monster's eight tentacles came crashing down, Wang Hao once again used his speed advantage to dodge the fatal attack.
"boom!"
The black monster's eight tentacles struck the stone gate of the Blazing River Purgatory, producing a loud bang that shook the gate.
But then, the black monster suddenly disappeared from its spot and reappeared behind Wang Hao, opening its blood-red maw and swallowing him whole.
The black monster let out a burp, then stared intently at the stone door before turning and heading deeper into the Crimson Flame Secret Realm.
Fifteen minutes later.
A petite and sexy young woman, dressed in a light blue dress, with long, flowing hair and slender legs, rushed to the lava valley, arriving at the place where the battle had just taken place.
Yan Qin's delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly as she murmured, "The battle is over, but the extent of the damage around here is so severe. It seems we encountered some kind of underground monster."
"However, we did not find Wang Hao's body. He must have escaped. In that case, we have no choice but to return the way we came."
Yan Qin stretched, revealing her flat, white belly and slender waist. She held an ancient sword in her arms and then walked back.
"I never imagined I'd be swallowed whole."
Wang Hao sat cross-legged in mid-air, his body radiating a pale yellow light that blocked the incoming acid. Now, if he were to unleash a full-force sword strike, he could kill it.
But now he's not in a hurry to kill the monster anymore. Anyway, the venom here can't do anything to him, and staying here is much safer than going out to explore on his own.
In any case, the true energy in his body was extremely abundant, and the energy pool had become a sea of energy. The true energy would not be exhausted in a short time. Moreover, there was also spiritual energy, which could be prepared for unforeseen circumstances.
If they could use the black monster to enter the depths of the Crimson Flame Secret Realm, that would be ideal. Moreover, Wang Hao was also quite curious about where this monster was going.
A vast amount of spiritual power was released, and the colored monster was seen crawling rapidly through the cracks in the rocks, arriving at the foot of a large underground mountain.
That underground mountain might not be considered tall on the surface, but it appears exceptionally majestic and magnificent underground. Who would have thought that there would be a mountain underground?
The entire mountain was shrouded in colorful miasma, and the air was filled with highly toxic gases, yet white clover grew in the crevices of the rocks.
Each clover emitted a faint white light and exuded a rich fragrance, forming a stark contrast with the surrounding miasma.
The black monster used its tentacles to pluck a small clover from a crevice in the rock and swallow it.
"boom!"
The medicinal power of the clover was quite potent. Upon entering the black monster's belly, it immediately transformed into a ball of jade-white liquid, which then merged into the black monster's body.
"Three-leaf Spirit Grass!"
With his powerful spiritual sense, Wang Hao detected the aura of the Three-Leaf Spirit Grass and was overjoyed.
