Alchemy Emperor of the Divine Dao

Chapter 4341  Swarm of bees

Ling Han rapidly retreated.

This fire turtle was at the peak stage of the Spirit Transformation Tier, and it was at least on the level of the Sixth Change or even the Seventh Change. If he faced it head-on, he would only be making things difficult for himself.

Boom, the fire turtleʼs leg stomped down, shaking the ground madly.

The large fellow missed its target, and immediately emerged from the river of lava, chasing after Ling Han.

”Ha, youʼre getting more excited?” Ling Han chuckled lightly, and a murderous aura burst forth.

Weng, the fire turtleʼs movements instantly paused.

Even if you are Spirit Transformation Tier Sixth Change or Seventh Change, so what? As long as one didnʼt have a special technique or a treasure that could block spiritual attacks, they would still be hit.

Ling Han took advantage of the opening to slash out with the divine saber. Wrapped in a cold, high-level energy, it just happened to be the complete opposite of the fire turtleʼs attributes.

Pu!

The divine saber struck, but the fire turtle didnʼt even sway, showing its terrifying defense.

Turtle had always been synonymous with high defense, and it was indeed true.

On the other side, the fire turtle also recovered from the barrage of murderous aura, and stepped over again.

Ling Han still didnʼt face it head-on. This time, he used the black light of illusion, immediately stopping the fire turtleʼs movements.

Though this fire turtleʼs cultivation level was above Ling Hanʼs, its Spiritual Power was not all that impressive. Otherwise, even if it had been hit, the effects should not have been able to last for so long.

The heavens were just, bestowing on the Turtle Race an incredibly tough outer shell, but the soul was relatively much weaker.

Relying on the two spirit-level secret techniques, Ling Han battled with the fire turtle, not falling into a disadvantage at all. However, the fire turtleʼs powerful defense also took effect, preventing Ling Han from wounding it.

This battle was boring. Ling Han feinted and turned to run.

The fire turtle only gave chase for a while, then stopped, turned and left, returning to the river of lava.

Ling Han returned to where the empress and the others were. At this time, they had mostly recovered.

”Letʼs go.”

”Where are we going?”

”Letʼs walk against the flow of this lava river.”

The True Phoenix was of the Fire Element, so it was extremely likely that the end of this lava river was related to the True Phoenix. In fact, it was even possible that it was born from the True Phoenix.

They did not get too close. There may be other fire turtles in the lava river. This kind of fierce beast had thick hide, and was really not easy to deal with.

They had not walked too far, when they felt waves of heat surge towards them. They could clearly see that there were sparks floating in the air. No wonder the temperature had begun to spike.

Everyone hurriedly raised their mystical power shields. Firstly, it was to resist the high temperature, and secondly, these sparks were extremely terrifying, posing a threat to them.

And even if they had put up the mystical power shield, after getting hit by the sparks, cracks soon appeared on the mystical power shield, which then shattered.

They had no choice but to decrease their speed to reduce the intensity of the sparks that they had to sustain.

”Itʼs so hot.” Ling Han, Ding Shu, and the perverted pig were all fine, but the empress and the others were all covered in sweat.

It made sense for this place to allow cultivators of the Spiritual Transformation Tier to enter. Those at the True Self Tier and Cauldron Forging Tier could indeed enter, but against such high temperatures, how many people would be able to resist?

Only the little red bird was like a fish in water. She was born with a natural love for fire, and not only did she not feel the slightest bit of discomfort, she instead seemed to feel very comfortable.

They continued to advance. As long as they could withstand it, they might as well challenge their own limits, which would be helpful in cultivation.

After walking for a few more days, they had not yet reached the end of the lava river, when they saw that a large field of flowers had appeared on their right side, fiery red in colour.

”Is that… the Flower of Flames?” Everyone looked over, and they all looked surprised.

This kind of plant was only knee-height in height. Its roots were like blood jade, and had no leaves. There were only flowers blooming on its top, bright red like fire. Furthermore, they were also flickering like flames.

When they got a little closer, everyone could feel the waves of fire rolling out, easily disintegrating the mystical power shield.

”Come, letʼs go take a look,” Ding Shu said to Ling Han.

Ling Han nodded, then looked towards the lecherous pig, ”Together?”

”Wu!” The perverted pig hurriedly shook its head. It was best not to call it over for this kind of thing. If it was an invitation to go out to eat, drink, and have fun, it would gladly agree.

However, the little red bird flapped its wings and landed on Ling Hanʼs shoulder.

”Hey, is it appropriate for you to stand on your Masterʼs shoulder?” Ling Han turned his head and asked.

The little red bird pouted proudly, and did not reply.

The two of them advanced, their speed not very fast, because the closer they were to the continuous expanse of flowers, the more astonishing the waves of fire would be, causing even them to be slightly wary, and not dare to run too fast.

However, the little red bird was completely unafraid. It flapped its wings again and flew into the flower field.

This was the awesomeness of bloodline. It had a natural affinity with flames, that had nothing to do with its cultivation level.

Weng, above the flower field, fiery red Regulations would occasionally appear.

These were Regulations of Fire, and their level was considerably high, causing both Ling Han and Ding Shu to be dumbfounded. If they came into contact with them, they would probably be burnt to death in an instant.

They circled around the flower field, wanting to see if there was anything special about it. However, because they couldnʼt approach, and couldnʼt go deeper, they naturally didnʼt discover anything.

”Letʼs go.”

The two of them said at the same time. They couldnʼt tell what was going on here.

They turned around, and just as they were about to return, they saw the little red bird fly up from the distance. Then, as if it was fleeing for its life, it shot towards them.

Then, they saw a large mass of fiery red things soar into the air, chasing after the little red bird.

”Save me!” the little red bird shouted as it flew.

Ling Han focused his gaze. This fiery red thing was a swarm of bees, and every single one of them was the size of a fist. However, their numbers were endless, and there were still a great many that were flying out of the flower field.

These swarms of bees had been harvesting honey, and in the end, they were alerted by the little red bird?

”Run!” Without another word, Ling Han immediately turned around and fled.

Ding Shu didnʼt try to be brave either, and he similarly broke into a run.

These swarms of bees were all at the Spiritual Transformation Tier. Even if Ling Han and Ding Shu were freakishly powerful, firstly, they had just advanced to the Spiritual Transformation Tier, after all. Secondly, even if both sides were at the same cultivation level, they would only be able to fight against a thousand opponents at most.

The numbers of the swarms of bees?

As far as they could see, there were at least tens of thousands of them, what more when there was still an endless swarm of bees flying out.

Block?

How were they supposed to block this?

Neither Ling Han nor Ding Shu ran towards the empress and the others. If they attracted the swarm of bees there, the casualties would be great.

”Little Red Bird, what did you do?” Ling Han asked as he ran.

Had it dug up their ancestral grave? Otherwise, how could it have caused such a huge commotion?

”No, I just flew over to take a look. Who knew that these demonic bees would attack me indiscriminately?” the little red bird said very aggrievedly. She was also very depressed.

They ran madly, but these swarms of bees did not stop their pursuit just because they were too far away, and continued to pursue them relentlessly.

”F***!” Ding Shu was enraged. He turned around and shot out a murderous aura attack.

Instantly, weng, weng, weng! The demonic bees that were in the lead all fell straight down onto the ground.

But it was not of much use. The demonic bees behind them followed, endlessly.
