"There are no more flaming river crystals in this area!"
Wang Teng and An Lan met up with the rest of the team and discussed for a moment. They prepared to move to the next location.
They had searched all the areas around them. It was impossible to find any more flaming river crystals nearby.
They returned to the surface. Wang Teng opened the map and searched for their next destination. There were many red zones marked on the map. These were the places other people had dug before.
The lava swamp was huge, but after many years, most of the crystals had been excavated. They needed to find areas that hadn't been touched.
"Let's head to the north. That area is bigger," Wang Teng pointed to a patch of ground in the north and suggested.
"I have no objection," An Lan shrugged.
"Let's go." Wang Teng found where the north was and kept the map. Everyone flew in the direction under his lead.
…
Approximately half an hour later, Wang Teng arrived at his destination and dived into the lava.
After a few plonks, the surface of the lava resumed its calmness. It was as if nothing had happened.
Approximately ten minutes later, two beams of light shot over from afar and stopped in the air above their heads. One of them was Cao Jiaojiao from the Cao family. The other person was covered in a black robe.
"Here it is. There should be flaming river crystals here," Cao Jiaojiao looked at the map and said.
"Yes." The man in the black robe nodded.
The next moment, the two of them leaped into the lava without any protection.
A magical scene appeared!
After they entered the swamp, a layer of light appeared on the surface of their bodies. The lava around them was blocked outside the layer.
Their bodies started sinking, and they quickly arrived at the bottom of the swamp.
The two of them sensed their surroundings and left quickly. They traveled in the swamp without hindrance as if they were on land. After some time, they stopped again.
The lava around them was pushed away, and a deep hole appeared in front of them. It was a new hole that was dug recently.
The two of them turned silent.
"They came recently," Cao Jiaojiao gritted her teeth and said using voice transmission.
"Chase them!" The man's gaze turned sharp. He rushed forward at a fast speed.
Cao Jiaojiao's gaze flickered. She didn't dare to stay any longer and followed after him.
…
"Wang Teng, we must have collected 7500 kilograms of flaming river crystals here, right?"
An Lan asked happily as he dashed out of a deep hole with Wang Teng.
"About there. It might be a little more." A smile appeared on the edge of Wang Teng's lips. He seemed happy.
Suddenly, his expression changed. His gaze turned grim.
"What is it?" An Lan asked hurriedly.
The instant he asked the question, his expression changed too. He received a message through some unknown method.
"They got ambushed."
Wang Teng received the news through his spiritual pet contract with Little White and the metal armor flaming scorpion. He rushed in their direction without any hesitation.
"Damn it, they met a heaven-stage martial warrior. It must be Cao Hongtu!"
The news that An Lan received was even clearer. The mecha race had a special communication method. They were able to interact with one another within a certain distance. This was how the other three mechas contacted him just now.
"Don't worry, Cao Hongtu won't be able to release his heaven-stage ability here. My friends can resist for some time."
An Lan consoled Wang Teng when he noticed how quiet he was. However, they increased their speed and tried their best to rush to the location.
…
Boom!
A loud explosion came from the bottom of the lava swamp. Lava splattered everywhere.
An Feng and the three cosmos-stage mechas were fighting with a man in a black gown. They were the ones who caused the terrifying Force explosion.
The man in a black gown released his fist. A blue flame gathered and flew toward the three mechas.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The trio stood at three corners. Their arms turned into battle blades, and they released blade auras more than ten meters long.
They condensed their blade conscious into the blade glows, so the blade glows weren't very long. Instead, they appeared a little tiny. However, their power wasn't. They gathered together from three different directions and slammed on the blue fist mark, disintegrating the attacks of both parties.
Bang!
The lava got pushed away amid the loud explosion. An empty zone was left behind.
"Interesting. Wang Teng managed to find three mecha cosmos-stage martial warriors." The man in a black gown said in a hoarse voice, "I heard that mechas are great as slaves. I think I can capture y'all back."
The three cosmos-stage mechas were furious.
"How dare you!" An Dong shouted coldly. His arm turned into a heavy mace. It gave off a dazzling yellow glow and smashed toward the man in a black gown. The yellow glow formed an outline of a huge mace.
"Useless!" The man in a black gown snorted and hurled his punch out again. It collided with the mace and destroyed it instantly.
Boom!
An Dong was the first to bear the brunt of the frightening Force impact. He was thrown off his feet.
The other two mechas elongated their arms, giving rise to a series of mechanical sounds.
Their palms and arms connected together. They dashed out for more than ten meters and caught An Dong, pulling him back.
"Don't act rashly. Wait for the boss to come back," An Feng and An Jian said in low voices.
"Waiting for reinforcements? You're too naive." The man in a black gown moved instantly and charged toward the three martial warriors.
The three mechas furrowed their brows. They exchanged glances with one another and nodded. Their arms changed shape again and turned into huge cannons. Intense Force glows gathered on the mouth of the cannons quickly.
"Hmm?" The man in a black gown felt a sense of danger. He stopped and started retreating.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
However, the three mechas had already completed their power-up. Three brilliant Force pillars shot out.
"Hmph!"
With a snort, a giant ax appeared in the man in black's hand. As he twirled it, blue flames started burning violently. They formed the shape of an enormous giant ax.
Boom!
When he slashed his ax down, the ax aura collided with the three Force glows.
Bang, bang, bang…
Explosions were heard continuously. The lava around them erupted and blossomed like flowers of fire.
The three Force glows couldn't withstand the blue battleax. They got chopped, but the blue battleax continued hurling forward forcefully and slammed into the bodies of the three mechas.
Their bodies were torn apart. They were almost hacked into two.
"This is so scary. Let's run." The metal armor flaming scorpion called Little White over. It was flabbergasted.
"You can't run away." Cao Jiaojiao blocked their path and pushed her fist out.
Little White and the metal armor flaming scorpion were just emperor-level star beasts. They couldn't resist the attack of a cosmos-stage martial warrior. They were thrown into the air and slammed into the rocks at the bottom.
Painful screams escaped their mouths. They had suffered heavy injuries.
Cao Jiaojiao wanted to catch them alive, so she didn't release all her power.
Thus, Little White and the metal armor flaming scorpion weren't in any life-threatening danger.
"I'll give you one chance. Give us the flaming river crystals and bow down to us, if not…" The man in a black gown was extremely arrogant. He continued nonchalantly, "I'll turn you into scrap."
The three mechas were healing their bodies while their gazes flickered continuously. They couldn't hide their anger.
"Don't even think about it," An Feng replied coldly with a furious glare.
"It looks like you have a death—" The man in black stared at them sharply.
Before he could finish his sentence, a shout echoed over from afar.
"You're the one who has a death wish!"
