Chapter 426: Gold Volcano!
Translator: AstralGhost Editor: Kurisu
The group of experts felt their mouths twitching when they looked at this scene. The matter was settled so simply just like that?
The group continued forward until they came to the end of the path. There was a faint light coming from the front, but another large boulder was blocking the path. Light shone through the cracks between the boulder and the walls of the path.
A gentle breeze blew over, and everyone's eyes widened with shock. This gentle breeze carried a smell of salt, like a sea breeze!
"Arctic Frost Palm!"
The wound on the Frost Arts Sect's expert's face had already begun to heal. From this, one could see how strong the recovery ability of a Controlled Dan Heavenly Expert was. This wound had also been caused by the Soaring Rainbow, which made it harder to heal. Otherwise, his face would have healed completely long ago.
A palm smacked down on the five, six meters tall boulder, and a strong frigid frost Qi surged outwards.
"Kacha!"
"Peng!"
The Arctic Frost Palm had been trained to the acme of perfection by this expert, and the freezing chill caused by it was without compare!
With his ferocious strength combined, the huge boulder instantly shattered into countless pieces.
"This is an underground world!"
"How spectacular!"
The entire group was stunned by the scene revealed before their eyes. The scene beyond the tunnels was actually a boundless ocean that stretched endlessly before everyone's eyes!
The sea breeze blew steadily, carrying a salty smell with it. On the ocean, large waves rose and fell without end.
With a single look, everyone could instantly tell that this was not some underground freshwater lake. This was real seawater!
Far out in the sky, there was a huge ball of light, similar to the sun in the outside world.
The temperature here was extremely high, reaching over 50, 60 degrees Celsius. Normal people would not be able to survive here for more than a day!
Casting their gazes over, they could see two increasingly thick chains stretching above the ocean. The chains' location was right above them, meaning that there should be a path in that direction.
The group rose into the air unhesitatingly and flew towards the sky, planning to directly cross over this huge sea.
The group's speed was extremely fast, leaving numerous terrifying sonic booms behind them. Very quickly, they reached three times the speed of sound. In the eyes of a normal person, they were so fast that even their shadows could not be seen clearly!
Inside the sea, a huge toad about the a dozen meters long suddenly stretched out its tongue, attempting to catch these tiny bugs flying above it.
"DIE!"
The expert from the Frost Arts Sect bellowed with a bellyful of unreleased rage. Why were all the creatures always aiming for him?! Did they really think that he was that easy to bully?!
A huge palm made entirely out of ice slammed down towards the sea, and the area 100 meters around the toad was directly sealed in ice!
"Sou!"
At this time, a group of huge sword fishes numbering over 100 appeared before the group, their sharp spikes looking extremely dangerous. With Bei Feng's group's speed, they arrived right in front of the sword fishes in an instant.
"Peng! Peng!"
The incomparably sharp spikes, when added to the huge mutant sword fishes' speed of over a hundred kilometers an hour, could even pierce through the metal hull of large ships!
However, when these fishes slammed into the group's protective barrier, their bodies directly burst apart and fell back into the ocean!
Countless strange half meter long fishes immediately dashed over, snatching at the blood and flesh that'd fallen into the water. These strange fishes' teeth were both long and sharp. They were practically the ancestors of the famed piranhas!
With the group's speed, they only used slightly over an hour to cross the entire patch of sea. A huge island that seemed equally boundless soon appeared in everyone's sights.
"Rumble!"
"Yin!"
"Diao!"
"Hou!"
At the heart of the island was a gigantic waterfall. The deafening sound of its water crashing against rock could be heard far and wide. Countless lives dwelled on the island, and the sounds and movements of the countless creatures could be heard moving about the island.
The temperature here had dropped somewhat, and was only around 40 degrees. The plants and trees grew tall into the sky, and all kinds of species that the group did not recognize appeared in before them.
"Hou!"
The Cerberus seemed to like this environment immensely. As it looked around the island, all three heads revealed a satisfied smile as they raised their heads towards the sky and roared. Its voice was deep and spread far into the distance.
The entire area quietened down instantly following the Cerberus's roar. Not a single beast dared to make a single noise in opposition!
Far away, inside a huge cave, a gigantic beast abruptly opened its eyes. A ruthless and tyrannical look filled both its eyes.
"Roar!"
This huge beast opened its mouth and roared to the sky before getting onto its feet. The moment it stood up, its full form could be seen. This was an incomparably huge Tyrannosaurus Rex!
This T-rex was much larger than any in recorded history. It was over a dozen meters tall, and 30-something meters long. This fellow was undoubtedly a legitimate hegemon of the area!
At this time, the huge body had stepped out of its old nest and moved towards the source of the roar. From the way the T-rex saw it, that roar was a challenge to it!
"Well, that's awkward..."
Mystic One stood to the side and snickered as she looked at the Cerberus.
"Damn it! I'm going to eat this fellow up!"
Indigestion growled in a gloomy voice. It'd been enjoying the awesome feeling of cowing all the creatures in the area with a single roar, thinking that nobody dared to make any sound in its presence, when another roar rang out, smacking it in the face.
"Peng! Peng!"
A series of heavy booms rang out, and the ground itself tremored from the shock!
An ordinary T-rex was only about a dozen meters long and five meters tall. At best, it was 10-something tons heavy. But looking at it, only this mutated ancient dinosaur was really worthy of the name Tyrannosaurus Rex!
Its muscular body was several tens of tons heavy, and deep footprints appeared on the ground with its every step. Above the hundred meter tall giant trees, a huge head suddenly popped up!
Its two nostrils snorted heavily, and its entire body was covered in shiny scales. As it approached, it narrowed its beady eyes as it measured this group of uninvited guests.
The Cerberus growled lowly and walked forward as it looked up at this huge ancient beast with disdain.
"Woof!"
The Cerberus's body grew large in an instant as it opened its mouth. In a single gulp, the incomparably huge Tyrannosaurus Rex had been swallowed!
"Yuck, yuck, the taste is not good. The meat's too old."
Indigestion smacked its lips with disgust.
Bei Feng's lips twitched heavily as he looked at Indigestion with disbelief. Since when did this fellow start learning from Insatiable and Black Hole? Could it be that stupidity was contagious?
"You're really something! Directly swallowing it in one gulp, what kind of taste can you get from it!"
Mystic One could not bear to watch any further, and supported her forehead with her hands as though she was suffering from a headache.
Indigestion let out a 'hehe' sound and shrunk its body back down before running back to Bei Feng cutely.
As for the manner in which the Cerberus just gulped down an already extinct super-beast, nobody had much reaction to it. At their current state, who would have the mind to pay attention to a mere creature?
Right now, everyone was making a final gamble with their very lives on the line. If they won, the ocean was wide enough for the fishes to swim freely and seek other opportunities. But if they failed, what did it matter even if the world was flooded?
The thick chains existed throughout, leading the way. At this moment, they were already as thick as an adult's thigh. A dark gold color shimmered on their surface as they stretched towards the heart of the island.
The group's aura exploded forth, suppressing everything within a hundred li. Their speed was extremely quick, plowing out numerous wind tunnels through the jungle.
The group had already detected that this place was different from the other areas. The entire island was the heart of a super-huge formation. Large amounts of energy flowed towards this point continuously, and gathered on the island. Not only Lingqi, there were many other unknown types of energy. Perhaps this energy was what allowed all the creatures attracted to the area to mutate.
At the heart of the island was an incomparably huge volcano. This was a live volcano, which constantly spewed out thick smoke!
"Rumble!"
The entire island tremored as the huge volcano began to erupt!
Fortunately, this eruption was just a small-scale eruption. Large volumes of smoke spouted out of the mouth of the volcano, and scorching lava flew out of it. The lava was not scarlet as one would expect. Instead, it was golden in color!
Countless flakes of dust burst into the sky. Bei Feng stretched out his hand and caught a piece in his hand.
"This is... gold? Good fellow, this is a Gold Volcano!"
Bei Feng felt his eyebrows twitch uncontrollably as he looked at the flake of gold in his hand. The total gold deposit in the world was only so little. Compared to the amount of gold spewing from the mouth of this volcano, it was completely not worth a mention at all!
Golden lava flowed continuously from the volcano. This was all the purest, refined gold. If word of it got out, the entire world would probably fall into a frenzy over it!
A chunk of diamond the size of a small mountain, a huge volcano that spouted gold... these two alone were enough to cause countless people to go crazy with greed, disregarding all danger to come down here!
