Chapter 2310 - 2311: City of the fire god (2)
Zhao Hai finally understood why the lava was attacking the people who entered the lava river. It must be because of the pressure. But what was it that detected the pressure? Why did he make the lava submit to him? Zhao Hai was even more curious.
After the pressure disappeared, Zhao Hai continued to dive down. At the same time, he found that the magma around him had returned to normal. When the pressure came, Zhao Hai thought that the magma had solidified, but when the pressure disappeared, the magma started moving again.
This feeling surprised Zhao Hai. Although pressure might sound intimidating, it was just a kind of aura. A person in a high position for a long time would naturally have an aura. He did not need to specifically state how much power he had, but his words and actions could completely reveal his identity. This was aura.
Coercion could be said to be an upgraded version of momentum. Sometimes, momentum was only an instinctive manifestation, while coercion was a manifestation of an offensive situation. In other words, coercion was the initiative to use momentum to suppress people.
To a person, using their aura to pressure others was just a simple act of glaring and scaring people. It wouldn’t cause much harm to the person. However, to a cultivator, things weren’t that simple. Just like Zhao Hai, he could basically use his aura to hurt people. If a spirit refining cultivator were to encounter Zhao Hai, Zhao Hai would only need to use his aura to injure them. Of course, the injuries would be very light.
Among all the cultivators Zhao Hai had seen, Hu Dingshan was the best at using pressure. With just a sneer, he could cause the wandering soul gang to lose countless cultivators. It was actually a combination of pressure and sound wave attack. He couldn’t kill so many people with just sound wave attack, and he couldn’t do it with pressure either. Therefore, Hu Dingshan combined pressure and sound wave attack to create that effect.
The pressure Zhao Hai felt in the lava river was even stronger than the pressure in huding mountain. The reason why it didn’t work on Zhao Hai was simple. It was because the pressure only worked on the lava and not anything else.
It was because of this discovery that Zhao Hai became even more curious. He wanted to know what exactly was giving off this pressure.
After diving for about 1000 m, Zhao Hai found that the lava river became smarter and flowed as easily as water. Meanwhile, he felt that the temperature here was higher. Zhao Hai had a feeling that he would soon reach his destination.
Just as Zhao Hai was diving with all his might, he suddenly felt an empty space in front of him. All the lava had disappeared. He had arrived in a world of fire.
That’s right, it was a world of fire. Everything here was burning, and the burning flames seemed to have turned into a huge cover, keeping the magma outside. Now that Zhao Hai had entered this world, he felt that the surroundings were filled with an extremely strong fire element. There was no other element in this world, only one element, and that was the fire element.
Zhao Hai looked around and found that it was a huge building complex that looked like a huge city. In the city, there were landlords who lived with civilians, as well as some palaces and attics. On the periphery of the city was a circle of tall city walls. The whole city was huge.
The city was square in shape, and it looked like a giant Go board. Zhao Hails current position was outside one of the city gates.
The entire city had four city gates, each of which had three main gates and six secondary gates. The so-called main gate was the relatively large gate, while the secondary gates were naturally the relatively small gates.
The height of the city walls had completely exceeded Zhao Hai’s imagination. The walls were about a thousand meters tall, and each main gate was nearly nine hundred meters tall. The buildings in the city were not any shorter than the walls. The entire city looked like a giant’s residence.
The entire city was built with a type of red stone. These red stones emitted a shocking amount of heat. Zhao Hai could even see the flames burning on the stones.
Zhao Hai stared blankly at the burning city. He found it hard to imagine that there was such a huge city in the world. What kind of people could live in such a huge and hot city?
Very quickly, Zhao Hai’s attention was drawn to something else. It was a stone tablet, an extremely large stone tablet. It was only slightly shorter than the city walls. On the front of the stone tablet were three large words, “fire god city.” Each of the three words was about two hundred meters tall and had an extraordinary aura.
When Zhao Hai saw these three words, it was as if he had seen an ancient God. He said, ” between heaven and earth, ” and with a wave of his hand, the sky was filled with a sea of fire. Everyone who stood in his way was turned into ashes. Only such a person could be called the fire god and be worthy of living in such a city.
These three domineering words represented the identity of the city’s owner. The city of the fire god, the residence of the fire god!
Zhao Hail s mind was completely shocked by the three words. He unconsciously lowered his flying altitude and finally landed on the ground. He raised his head and looked at the huge stone tablet like the most pious believer on a
pilgrimage.
After a while, Zhao Hai let out a long breath and came back to his senses.
However, Zhao Hai was certain that this city was the residence of an ancient Almighty. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have such an imposing aura.
Zhao Hai kowtowed three times to the stone tablet to express his respect for this ancient power. Then, he slowly walked to the back of the stone tablet. As soon as he got there, he was immediately attracted by an article.
The first thing that caught Zhao Hai’s attention was the name of the article.
Every word on the name was about ten meters tall. Of course, this was nothing. After all, the stone tablet was huge. What surprised Zhao Hai was that the name of the article was broken!
The name was very strange. The first word of the article’s name had been dug out by someone, leaving a square hole. The name of the article should have three words, but there were only two left. The two words behind it were ‘divine talent’.
Zhao Hai didn’t need to guess to know that this article was called the fire god’s poem, because the beginning of the article wrote: &Quot; the god of fire stood between heaven and earth and was the ancestor of civilization. He warmed the human body and gained wisdom from the human heart. He gave people cooked food, helped people to defend against enemies, and his achievements covered the heaven and earth, benefiting the people for thousands of years! &Quot; Zhao Hai would be an idiot if he didn’t know that the essay was about the fire god after reading all of this. The content of the essay was just to praise the fire god. Zhao Hai wasn’t surprised by this, but by the word that had been dug out from the three words ‘gift of the fire god.” If Zhao Hai wasn’t wrong, he was sure that the word that had been dug out was now in the main hall of the blazing flame sect. It was the word “fire” that Zhao Hai had seen before!
The simple word ” fire ” had already greatly improved Zhao Hai’s ability to control fire. It was obvious that the origin of the word ” fire ” was not simple. This huge city did not look simple at all. It was not strange that the word ” fire ‘ had appeared here.
In order to confirm his suspicions, Zhao Hai flew up to the top of the huge stone tablet and looked at the spot that had been dug out. He was even more certain that the word “fire” in the blazing flame sect had been dug out from the stone tablet.
Zhao Hai furrowed his brows slightly. Then, he extended his hand and a long sword appeared in his hand. He used all his strength to slash at the stone tablet!
Clang! Zhao Hai’s sword was immediately sent flying, but there was not a single mark on the stone tablet. When Zhao Hai saw that there was not a single mark on the stone tablet, the confusion in his eyes deepened.
