Chapter 262: If you don’t die sooner or later, you’ll die now
Volcanic belt.
The smoke dissipated and the noise became smaller.
Li Jiu then slowly flew over, releasing his spiritual consciousness while looking around.
Soon, he made a discovery.
At the edge of a crack in the ground, the magma had just turned into lava, but there seemed to be a person underneath.
"Could it be him?"
Li Jiu fell down and took a closer look. The lava was in the shape of a person. He would never believe that there was no one underneath.
However, the magma had cooled and turned into hard volcanic rock, and was connected to the ground.
This was not a problem for Li Jiu.
He took out a wine gourd and smashed it down.
"Boom!"
Some magma suddenly came out of the cracks around the ground, and cracks appeared where the gourd was smashed!
As the cracks gradually extended, Li Jiu actually dug out a large piece of volcanic rock!
The human figure was wrapped in it!
"If he is Li Yan, I guess his storage bag is also burned, so I can only take him back to Li Tian to report to him, so as to avoid him making trouble for me!"
Li Jiu was helpless. He took this huge volcanic stone and flew back to Lihuo Sect in a short time.
Sect Master Hall.
Li Tian summoned all the elders.
The death of a Jindan stage is a big deal for any sect.
Everyone gathered around this huge volcanic stone and talked in a low voice.
"Silence!"
After seeing everyone gathered, Li Tian stood up from the first seat and said: "The one Li Jiu brought back is most likely Li Yan. What do you think?"
Everyone looked at Li Jiu first, then quickly retracted their gaze and fell on the volcanic stone.
The great elder spoke first, saying, "Master, from what I have seen, it is unknown whether it is Li Yan or not. Only by dismantling this volcanic stone can we know."
"That's exactly what I meant," Li Tian sighed, and said, "I have used his soul card to sense it, but it may have been a long time, the soul power has dissipated, and the soul card has no reaction. The reason why you are here now is to ask you to give advice and brainstorm! It is easy to dismantle the volcanic stone, but it is obviously burned into one piece by the lava. It may be a bit difficult to preserve the body."
Li Tian was telling the truth.
Being able to maintain the human form means that his body has not been destroyed.
This is because of Zhu Yun's negligence, or lack of experience.
The magma in the volcano has an extremely high internal temperature and can be maintained all the time.
If it was thrown into the volcano at that time, even if Li Yan was not burned to slag, it would not be so easy for Li Jiu to find it.
But in the outside world, no matter how hot the temperature is, it is very different from outside the volcano!
The magma erupted from the volcano and the magma from the cracks in the ground will cool down rapidly after encountering air.
Although the temperature is still very high, it cannot burn a corpse of an early stage of Jindan!
Not to mention, Li Yan has practiced the Lihuo Curse for hundreds of years and has a certain resistance to high temperatures.
The magma can only bury him, but cannot burn him.
"Master, there is a way, but it just takes spiritual power and time!"
The second elder stood up and said.
"What is the way? Tell me! Could it be that we, more than ten Jindan stage people, can't even get a complete corpse?"
Li Tian looked majestic.
Even if he didn't care about Li Yan's death, he couldn't show it on his face.
Otherwise, it would disperse people's hearts.
Although he was at the highest level, if the three elders and others found some reason to join forces to deal with him, he would not be sure of winning.
So no matter what you do, you need a reasonable excuse.
Although the Lihuo Sect is not as turbulent as the Lingjian Sect back then, Li Tian has his own selfish desires and wants to pave the way for his son to cultivate immortality, so he needs to be more careful and avoid being gossiped about.
Therefore, since Li Yan's body has been brought back, he wants to find a way to get it out, and then bury it in the ancestral temple!
"It requires subtle control of spiritual power, slowly burning with Lihuo, first burn the outer layer, then remove it, burn it again, and then remove it. In this way, you can always get the body of Elder Yan out."
The third elder stood up and said.
"This does take energy and time..."
Li Tian sighed, pretending to be troubled, and said: "But now there is no other way, so I can only try this. Elders, take turns according to the ranking! As the leader of the sect, I should lead by example, so let me go first!"
What several elders understand, he naturally understands better.
Li Tian walked down from the first seat, and the elders around him made way for him.
Li Tian stretched out his palm, and a stream of fire took shape instantly.
Before he could make a move, the fire quickly turned into a dragon shape!
The dragon-shaped fire sitting cross-legged in his palm!
All the elders changed color. They could turn into dragons, and they had all kinds of forms.
But they couldn't reach the level of Li Tian!
How exquisite is this control?
Like Li Yan's signature, it is the twin dragon fire, which seems powerful, but it is just a show.
Of course, this is facing many elders and Li Tian here.
Sometimes it is not the number that can win.
In the volcano, Zhu Yun's realm is obviously lower, and there is only one fire dragon, but he collided with Li Yan's twin dragons.
Admittedly, this is due to the effect of the Fire Spirit Pearl purifying the fire spirit power, and also related to Zhu Yun's sneak attack.
But after all, it is the realm of the Jindan period. The difference in realm can be made up by Zhu Yun, which is enough to explain.
"Go!"
With Li Tian's order, the little fire dragon instantly flew to the volcanic rock. Under his control, a small piece of volcanic rock began to emit hot steam and gradually turned red.
When it softened completely, Li Tian asked the little fire dragon to bite off that piece directly!
After a few hours, Li Tian sat back on the first seat panting, his face full of fatigue, and less than 20% of the spiritual power was left in his golden elixir.
And the volcanic rock smashed by Li Jiu has already taken on a human form.
"Master, you have worked hard, let me do it next!"
Even if the elder had complaints, he had nothing to say at this time.
Because Li Tian was the first to end, he must be the second!
Even the third one is the second elder, the fourth one is the third elder, and so on!
It can only end when Li Yan's body is completely taken out!
…
"Damn it, it's over now! Li Yan, that old guy, should have died earlier or later, why did he die suddenly!"
In a valley, Sun Xuanhua threw a pot of wine in his hand to the ground in hatred.
It has been nearly ten years since he came to Lihuo Sect.
After leaving Youluo Sect, he went directly to the volcanic belt of Chuzhou to find spiritual fire!
It is not only in such high-temperature places that spiritual fire can be found.
But relatively speaking, the hotter the place, the higher the probability and grade of spiritual fire.
He was lucky, and he encountered a ground fire as soon as he arrived!
It took a lot of effort to subdue the ground fire, but he didn't expect to meet Li Yan!
Li Yan saw the ground fire being subdued by Sun Xuanhua with his own eyes, how could he let it go?
Sun Xuanhua is not strong, but he is not stupid.
Knowing that he couldn't escape, he simply said: "If you dare to move, I will explode at the same time as the spiritual fire!"
Li Yan only wanted the earth fire, and it didn't matter whether he killed Sun Xuanhua or not.
The foundation-building stage was nothing more than an ant to him!
But if he let Sun Xuanhua go, the earth fire would follow him.
But if he didn't let him go, he couldn't get the earth fire!
The two of them were deadlocked for a long time. Sun Xuanhua was naturally no match for him, so he could only speak first and said: "Why do you want the spiritual fire?"
"A mere foundation-building stage, are you qualified to inquire about my news?"
At that time, Li Yan was very disdainful.
Sun Xuanhua had already threatened to die, but if he could survive, he would naturally want to live, so he simply said: "It doesn't matter whether you say it or not! But I want to make a deal with you!"
"Deal?"
Li Yan was even more disdainful, but he quickly agreed.
Just because Sun Xuanhua told him that he could make pills, refine weapons and draw talismans for him.
Of course, the materials were provided by him.
Li Yan pondered for a moment and felt that it seemed feasible.
Because he already had a ground fire, taking another one would only be icing on the cake.
But Sun Xuanhua's other abilities were a timely help to him!
While he was hesitating, Sun Xuanhua once again made a big announcement.
"I am the current head of Yaozhou! With this ground fire, I can refine more advanced pills!"
Suddenly, Li Yan no longer hesitated, and immediately took out his identity badge to prove his identity, and then swore an oath with Sun Xuanhua to form an alliance!
Li Yan helped Sun Xuanhua practice, while Sun Xuanhua helped him refine pills and make tools, etc.!
The time limit is a hundred years, or Li Yan breaks through the Nascent Soul stage!
After swearing, Li Yan took Sun Xuanhua back to the Lihuo Sect.
In order to avoid being discovered, Li Yan also helped Sun Xuanhua find countless materials and set up an extraordinary Nine Turns Nine Yang Formation in his cave!
This formation can be said to be all he has learned in his life, plus the materials given by Li Yan, it is simply another space. The Chuzhou cultivators are not good at formations, and it is even more impossible to discover it!
The reason why Sun Xuanhua learned about Li Yan's death was because the two of them swore together and kept the thought of the way of heaven.
Now, the thought of the way of heaven suddenly dissipated!
The most important thing is that you can't see the inside of the formation from outside, but inside the formation, he clearly saw Li Tian, who was at the peak of the late Jindan stage, coming to find someone!
What does this mean?
This means that the Lihuo Sect knows his existence, but they just don't know where he is!
"It's really bad luck. Do I have to be trapped as soon as I work for the sect?"
Sun Xuanhua's teeth were clattering...
