Volume 2: Achieving the Nine Heavens and Breaking the Cage Chapter 389 I'm Really Not Zhang Dixin
The crane rushed into the sea of fire, emitting a faint soft light, resisting the endless heat all around, as if the space was burning and the temperature was getting higher and higher.
Gu Xiaoxing looked at the Daheng Mountain that was looming in the red clouds in front of him. Against the backdrop of the sea of fire, the red clouds looked like red clouds, magnificent and beautiful.
What puzzled Gu Xiaoxing was that the temperature here was extremely high. Not to mention rocks and steel, even ordinary magic weapons would probably be melted if thrown in.
But why are there still floating clouds ? And why is Mount Hengshan not at all affected?
Could it be that the entire Hengshan Mountain is harder than any magical weapon or spiritual treasure?
Then, Gu Xiaoxing slowly lowered his head and looked at the chain below. The chain was extremely large, more than ten thousand feet wide, and it was unknown what material it was made of.
It extends through this high-temperature sea of fire and connects with Mount Hengshan without any hindrance.
The three of them rode on cranes and kept approaching the mountains along the thick chain. The temperature was getting higher and higher, and gradually, a red cloud appeared before their eyes.
This red cloud was extremely large, covering an area of a thousand miles.
Behind the thousands of miles of red clouds, the peak of Mount Heng was not far away. The ten thousand foot long chain was connected straight to the peak, and it was unknown how deep it extended into the mountain.
As for the Daheng Mountain, Gu Xiaoxing and the other two still couldn't see its entire appearance, nor did they know how high it was.
However, the mountaintop they saw alone was already thousands of miles high...
The three of them were also very steady. They did not choose to rush directly through the red cloud, but instead prepared to take a detour.
Although a thousand miles is nothing to them, this place is too strange after all. It is better not to touch it if possible.
The Holy Son of Juntian had emphasized before that even he only knew a little bit about this place, and no one knew how many dangers there were here.
Therefore, they have only one purpose for this trip, which is to search for the trace of the real dragon, and they must not do anything unnecessary!
However, accidents are accidents, and they always come unexpectedly!
Even though the three had decided to avoid the red cloud, the red cloud did not seem to want to let them go. With a flash from within, a scarlet divine thunder bolt struck out, heading straight for the crane.
The three of them were shocked at the same time. Even though Gu Xiaoxing had practiced the Nether Thunder Art, he still felt that the red lightning was extremely terrifying. If he was struck by it, he would probably be burned to death.
Not to mention the other two, Zhang Qing was so frightened that he screamed, "It's the Extreme Fire Thunder, run away!"
Rob didn't need any reminder at all. The moment the red lightning struck, he had already controlled the crane to turn sharply and narrowly avoided it.
But immediately afterwards, several more red lightning struck, faster and more powerful.
"Damn it, what is this extreme fire thunder? Why is it chasing us and striking us?"
Rob shouted and continued to control the crane to dodge, but the red lightning was too fast and one of it still hit the crane's tail.
The crane's tail immediately caught fire and turned into ashes in the red flames.
The burning crane howled in pain and Rob also had a grim look on his face. This crane was a top-grade spiritual puppet of his and was extremely powerful. It even had intelligence, but it still couldn't withstand the attack of the red thunder.
Suddenly, he thought of something and turned his head sharply to look at the two people behind him.
Gu Xiaoxing and Zhang Qing naturally thought of this as well, and hurriedly averted their gazes in embarrassment, not daring to meet Rob's gaze.
Both of them are proficient in divination, and most people who are proficient in this art have a flaw: they are easily struck by lightning.
It is commonly known as... a lightning-attracting body.
What bad luck!
The corners of Rob's mouth twitched, and he felt more and more regretful. He must have been seriously ill to choose to travel with these two disaster stars.
But at this moment , Rob had no time to think too much, because the light appeared again in the red cloud, and the next attack would surely be even more terrifying!
Rob's heart trembled, and then he gritted his teeth and made a decision, saying: "Stand firm, let's rush over!"
Gu Xiaoxing and the other person's heart skipped a beat at the same time, and they had a bad premonition.
At this moment, the crane's speed suddenly increased, and it wanted to rush along the edge of the red cloud at a rapid speed.
But the extreme fire thunder was faster, and as the red clouds surged, the red divine thunder had already violently swept up.
This time, dozens of them appeared directly, spreading from several directions in an instant.
Among them, there were a few divine thunders that exploded in front of the crane as if they were predicted.
All of a sudden, the three of them felt their scalps tingling at the same time, and even the Puppet Crane showed a look of fear, and wanted to stop, but its previous speed was too fast, and it had no time to stop instantly, and it was about to crash into the red thunder.
Gu Xiaoxing has already started to practice the Dark God Technique secretly. The thunder feels a bit scary to him and he has to use all his strength to have a chance of resisting it.
Rob gritted his teeth secretly, and also used all his strength to activate his cultivation, preparing to sacrifice this spiritual puppet to resist the divine thunder.
Even the crane has closed its eyes, as if it knows it is about to die.
However, at this moment, Zhang Qing silently took out a hat and put it on his head. On the top of the hat, there was an azure bead inlaid.
The beads flickered slightly.
Gu Xiaoxing and Rob's hearts were in their throats, but suddenly, they saw all the red thunders that were coming at them suddenly turned around when they were about to hit them!
The red lightning seemed to be hit by some invisible obstruction, or some repulsion and attraction, and was bounced to the side.
This scene was a critical moment.
The two of them paused at the same time and looked at Zhang Qing at the same time.
Especially Gu Xiaoxing, he was stunned. He stared at the hat on Zhang Qing's head and the blue bead on the hat.
I just feel that it looks extremely familiar.
But before Gu Xiaoxing could say anything, a shrill scream came from the crane. The three of them looked at the same time and saw that one of the crane's wings was burning with flames and was quickly turning to ashes.
It turned out that although the attacking red lightning was bounced back by the hat that Zhang Qing took out, the coverage area of the hat was not very large and failed to cover the entire crane.
Among the dozens of red lightnings that were bounced back, one hit the crane's wings.
The crane screamed miserably as its wings were burned to ashes by the red lightning. Severely damaged, it lost control of its direction, and staggered from side to side before diving into the red cloud.
The faces of the three people changed drastically at the same time. The terrifying high temperature was far more terrifying than outside. They hurriedly used their greater cultivation to protect themselves.
The crane flapped its wings and screamed even louder. It had just lost a wing and now it was immersed in the red cloud, as if its entire body was on fire.
Gu Xiaoxing became annoyed when he heard this and kicked him down.
"It's just a puppet, what's the use of shouting..."
Then, he looked at Rob suddenly and said, "Hurry up and control it to fly out!"
Rob's face was not looking good, and he said: "Do you think I don't want to? The lightning strike just now was too strong. Most of the formation inside the puppet has been damaged and it has lost control...!"
As he spoke, undercurrents surged in the red clouds, as if streaks of lightning were constantly accumulating, emitting a terrifying aura.
If it weren't for those red lightnings, Gu Xiaoxing could still rush out by himself, but as a lightning-attracting body, if he went out now he would probably just be chased and struck by lightning. It would be better for him to stay with Zhang Qing for safety.
Thinking of this, Gu Xiaoxing had already shifted his gaze to him, gradually becoming more fierce, especially when his gaze fell on the beads inlaid on the top of his hat, his gaze became completely gloomy.
"You still say you are not Zhang Dixin!"
Gu Xiaoxing had seen that hat in Lei Yuntian before. It was exactly the same one that Zhang Dixin had worn.
And the beads inlaid on it are lightning-proof beads!
Zhang Qing's heart was beating wildly. He sensed an extremely strong malice in Gu Xiaoxing's eyes and said hurriedly, "I... I'm really not Zhang Dixin!"
"Are you still going to be stubborn?" Gu Xiaoxing glared at him in anger, ready to take action.
"Zhang Qing" quickly shouted: "Brother, don't be angry. Zhang Dixin is my younger brother. My name is Zhang Diqing!"
Gu Xiaoxing was stunned when he heard this, but then he sneered: "Do you think I will still believe you? I don't care if you are Zhang Dixin or Zhang Diqing, I will beat you up first!"
Zhang Diqing hurriedly shouted again: "Brother Gu, don't be impulsive. The thunderstorm is coming. This extreme fire thunder is extremely powerful. I must use all my strength to control the lightning bead to resist it!"
"Alright, let the Son of Heaven deal with the Extreme Fire Thunder, you help me resist the surrounding red clouds, and I will focus on controlling the puppet..."
At this time, Rob also spoke up and said, "Although the interior of this puppet is mostly damaged, it can still move forward!"
"I discovered before that this red cloud should not be thick. Let's rush forward!"
As soon as he finished speaking, countless thunders surged around him, like a huge red thunderstorm.
"good!"
At the critical moment, Gu Xiaoxing shouted loudly, and his majestic cultivation spread out, covering the entire crane and isolating the endless heat in the red cloud.
Rob controlled the crane, folded up its only remaining intact wing, and the crane's body straightened up and rushed forward.
Zhang Diqing was also gritting his teeth, trying his best to activate the lightning-proof bead. The blue bead burst into a dazzling light, repelling all the incoming thunder.
With the combined efforts of the three, they reached a balance. The red clouds were hard to invade, the red thunder was hard to approach, and the fairy cranes were able to advance straight in!
The cranes are very fast and can cover thousands of miles in the blink of an eye. However, in this red cloud, their speed is greatly reduced and it takes them a while to fly a distance of thousands of miles.
But in the end, no more accidents happened. Although the thunder became more and more terrifying, it was all bounced away by Zhang Diqing's lightning-proof beads!
Finally, the crane broke through the red clouds!
Everyone just felt that the speed increased suddenly. Since Rob had stimulated its speed to the extreme before, the crane also flew at its extreme speed when it flew out of the red cloud.
In a flash, it crossed thousands of miles and then crashed straight into Mount Heng!
Gu Xiaoxing's eyes widened, and he reacted quickly, jumping up.
The same is true for Rob.
Only Zhang Diqing, who had a lower level of cultivation and lacked foresight, was too slow when he wanted to stand up and jump. With a loud "boom", his shrill screams were directly covered.
The crane puppet had been severely damaged before, and after being activated by Rob with all his strength, it exploded directly under the huge impact, instantly swallowing Zhang Diqing whole.
Gu Xiaoxing quickly looked around and found that he had actually arrived at the Daheng Mountain, and this was not the top of the mountain!
He raised his head and looked at the red clouds above, but frowned.
