"Whether it is Dongzhou Continent or Xihe Continent, strength has always been respected. Since Brother Shi is already an earth-level existence, I naturally have to call him senior." Yu Yi's face straightened and he said solemnly.
"No need, it sounds a bit awkward for us to be seniors and juniors, so you and I should just use the old names." Shi Mu waved his hand and said.
Seeing this, I felt a chill in my heart and didn't persist anymore.
"I'm leaving." Shi Mu said, waving his hand and raising the long blue shuttle.
"Brother Shi, I will go with you. Although my strength is low, I can still deal with some low-level monsters." Yu Yi said quickly.
"No need, listen to what Mr. Gongxi said, the Fire Miasma Valley is quite dangerous, Brother Yu should stay in the city." Shi Mu said and jumped onto the long blue shuttle.
A red shadow flew over from the side and landed on Shi Mu's shoulder. It was Cai'er. I don't know where it was hiding just now.
Shi Mu waved his hand to Yu Yi and said nothing. The long blue shuttle radiated brightly and turned into a ray of blue light, heading towards the gate of Scarlet Flame City.
Yu Yi watched Shi Mu escape away from the light, sighed, and walked away.
A quarter of an hour later, Shi Mu left Scarlet Flame City. The long blue shuttle radiated light and quickly flew into the range of Shiwan Volcano.
The air suddenly became hot, a scorching heat wave hit my face, as if I was in a furnace, and there was a pungent smell of volcanic smoke.
Shi Mu frowned. He didn't care about the slight heat wave, but with Cai'er by his side at the moment, he might not be able to bear it.
A red light flashed around him, condensing into a red shield outside him.
"It's okay, I can still stand the heat." Cai'er saw Shi Mu's actions and said.
"That's right. You have swallowed countless fire-attribute spiritual stones, so you are naturally not afraid of the heat." Shi Mu nodded, but he did not remove the shield.
He looked around. The last time he met Yu Yi was on the outskirts of Shiwan Volcano, but this was the first time he went deep into the depths of Shiwan Volcano.
There was a loud "boom"!
Less than a mile away from him, a mountain peak spewed out a column of crimson magma, soared into the sky, flew into the air and spread, causing a rain of magma to fall all around.
Shi Mu was startled and hurriedly dodged, making a circle and flying past the range of the magma rain.
Before he could breathe a sigh of relief, Cai'er's stiffness suddenly sounded.
"Stone, be careful to the left."
As soon as it finished speaking, a red light flashed in the gray mist beside Shi Mu, biting Shi Mu's feet like lightning, but it turned out to be a red leopard more than two feet long, with a pair of red leopards on its back.
Red wings.
Shi Mu snorted coldly, flicked his finger, and a golden sword energy flew out, cutting the red leopard into two pieces, and the severed body twisted in mid-air and fell.
"Red-ringed leopard..." Shi Mu's eyes flashed.
This leopard beast is a relatively common fire attribute monster in Shiwan Volcanoes.
"This place is full of dangers, Cai'er, always pay attention to what's going on around you." Shi Mu said in a deep voice, and the blue light under his body shone brightly, speeding up.
As he goes deeper and deeper, he encounters more and more dangers, and all kinds of poisonous insects and monsters emerge in endlessly.
However, with Shi Mu's current strength, these monsters and poisonous insects are naturally not a threat and can be killed easily.
Half a day later, Shi Mu gradually penetrated deeper into the Shiwan Volcano. The surrounding volcanoes erupted more frequently and the temperature gradually increased.
But here, the ordinary poisonous insect monsters are less common, and some innate-level monsters begin to appear.
"Hey..."
When Shi Mu flew over a volcano, a red demon bird several feet long flew out of a cave on one side and rushed towards Shi Mu.
The demon bird has fiery red eyes, a red flesh crown on its head, and two sharp claws several feet long, shining like daggers.
The demon bird's eyes emitted bursts of red light, and it looked extremely violent. It screamed, spread its wings, and clawed hard at Shi Mu.
Shi Mu snorted coldly, raised the meteorite black sword in his hand, and a red sword light several feet in size flew out diagonally.
The sword flashed, and it passed by the red demon bird.
The demon bird's body was suddenly cut in half, a rain of blood burst out all over the sky, and its remaining body fell downwards.
Shi Mu didn't even look at it and just flew past.
…
Half an hour later.
When Shi Mu urged the sapphire shuttle to finally reach the top of the valley marked on the map, he looked down.
In the rolling red mist, the bottom of the valley was unfathomable, and waves of extremely hot heat were rising from below, mixed with a faint fishy smell.
Shi Mu's eyes flashed with golden light, he glanced around, and his brows couldn't help but frown slightly.
I don't know if it is because of the influence of this red mist, but as soon as the released spiritual consciousness submerged in it, it seemed to be trapped in some kind of quagmire, and it was impossible to detect the movement at the bottom of the valley.
"Cai'er, have you noticed any movement?" Shi Mu asked.
"The fog at the bottom of the valley is too dense, and I can't see clearly." Cai'er's eyes shot out two white lights that seemed to be substantial, but they could only penetrate into the red fog for a few dozen feet, and could no longer penetrate.
"You stay here, I'll go down and take a look." Shi Mu said, taking out a green talisman with one hand, patting it on his body, casting a layer of green light on his body, and then activated the green jade shuttle, turning it into a green talisman.
The light flies downward.
Before touching the red mist, Shi Mu raised one hand, and seven or eight washbasin-sized fireballs emerged and flew downwards.
"Rumble" a loud noise!
These fireballs exploded one after another after being submerged in the red mist. The violent impact dispersed the nearby mist, revealing a space with a radius of tens of feet.
Before the mist rolled in from all directions and tried to restore the area, Shi Mu had already activated the jade shuttle and rushed in.
In this way, with the fireball clearing the way, Shi Mu flew downward for two to three hundred feet, and finally saw the valley bottom below. It was not a hard rocky ground, but a piece of black sand.
Shi Mu controlled the sapphire shuttle to hang seven or eight feet above the ground. His eyes flickered and he looked up. He saw the red mist rolling around him, closing the space he had opened with the fireball.
He withdrew his gaze and looked around.
The fog at the bottom of the valley is much thinner than above. With the blessing of spiritual eyes, I can barely see the scenery within fifty feet. However, except for some black and red rocks of different sizes, there seems to be nothing abnormal.
Suddenly, his nose twitched twice, and then he activated the magic spell suddenly, and the sapphire flying shuttle under his feet suddenly flew upwards.
Just as Shi Mu's body was flying, the sand below exploded, and then a huge snake about ten feet in size came out of it with its bloody mouth. It closed suddenly, but it bit the whole thing.
.
Shi Mu was in mid-air, secretly exclaiming "It's so dangerous". He looked at the snake head below carefully, but his heart was filled with fear.
I saw that the snake had a pair of giant yellow eyes the size of a lantern, with red scales the size of millstones all over its body, and two long black whiskers on both sides of its chin. The most eye-catching thing was that there were two long black beards on the top of its head.
Wearing a snake crown as red as blood, looking from a distance, it looks like it is holding a fire lotus.
"The middle stage of the Earth Stage! Didn't it mean that there is only the early stage of the Earth Stage?" Shi Mu secretly complained.
It seems that either the information provided by Mr. Hei is wrong or he is just unlucky. This fire-crested demonic snake is already a mid-earth-level demonic beast. In such a fire attribute environment, its strength is even more direct.
It's late in the earth stage.
Before I could think too much, I felt a cold wind coming from the back of my head.
Without saying a word, Shi Mu urged the jade shuttle to fly aside.
Whoop!
A red snake tail as thick as a water tank was suddenly thrown out of the fog, swept past Shi Mu's original location, and then disappeared again into the red fog ahead.
Before Shi Mu could stand still, he opened his mouth without thinking too much, and a golden sword light flew out, rising to the size of a door panel in the face of the storm, and went straight to kill the snake's head.
At the same time, a spiritual light flashed in his hand, and five or six talismans flew out in succession, also flying towards the snake's head.
The snake head's eyes flashed with yellow light, and its figure swayed strangely. The next moment, it seemed as if the red mist melted around it and disappeared out of thin air. The golden sword light suddenly struck the empty space.
The golden light in Shi Mu's eyes flashed, he raised one hand, and the five or six talismans turned in the direction and flew towards the other side. The light flashed and turned into dense ice spears, which exploded with lightning.
The roaring sound was loud, and the lights of various colors intertwined non-stop!
Then there was a flash of golden light, and a golden sword light several feet in size followed and slashed down.
"Bang" sound!
The red mist rolled down, revealing once again the huge snake head that had been lurking in the fire mist.
However, when Shi Mu saw the situation clearly, his expression turned bitter.
My own money sword and spiritual weapon, coupled with so many high-level attack talismans, only left some white marks and cracks on the scales of the Fire Crown Demonic Snake, and could not cause any fatal damage to it at all.
However, at this moment, the Fire Crown Demon Snake seemed to be furious. The red fire crown above its head was shining brightly, and the surrounding red mist seemed to be attracted by something. Like a long whale sucking water, it was submerged in it one after another, making the mist at the bottom of the valley thinner.
Shi Mu had already held the meteorite black sword in his hand. Seeing that something was not good, he was about to activate the sapphire shuttle to escape. At this moment, there was a faint cold wind behind him, and the giant snake tail moved almost silently.
Sweeping in.
Shi Mu wanted to dodge at this moment, but was unable to do so. At the critical moment, he shouted low and swung the black knife in his hand forward, and a red sword light several feet in size struck straight out with great force.
A "ding" sound!
The red sword light fell on the scales of the snake's tail, and sparks popped up randomly. The snake's tail was safe on the surface, but its fall was slightly slower.
At this moment, Shi Mu took advantage of this opportunity and urged the green jade shuttle to fly back.
At this moment, the red fire crown on top of the fire crown demon snake suddenly roared, and a red fire arc of more than ten feet long flashed out, as fast as thunder.
At this critical moment, Shi Mu did not show a look of panic on his face. He used his right hand to press the spell, and a black light erupted from his chest. Black scales emerged from the body surface. At the same time, the sapphire shuttle continued to fly forward.
There was a "boom"!
The red arc of fire struck the sapphire shuttle firmly, bursting into flames, and pieces of red fire cloud emerged, instantly covering Shi Mu's figure.
The zhenqi shield on Shi Mu's body instantly collapsed, and the scales on his body shattered into pieces in the extremely hot red fire cloud, becoming dripping with blood.
His eyes were closed tightly, he seemed to be in a coma, and his body fell from the air.
A "whoosh" sound!
A thick figure sprang up from below, but it was the tail of the Fire Crown Demonic Snake. With a twist, it immediately wrapped Shi Mu tightly, and with a quick flick, it arrived in front of the snake's head and bloody mouth.
