Chapter 1412 - Ascending Heaven Tower
After 15 minutes had passed, everyone met up in the area where they had first entered. They hadn’t had adventures like Jiang Chen, but they also didn’t find any treasures.
However, obviously they hadn’t searched the whole Divine Palace in such a short time.
“Jiang Chen, who is this?”
When everyone saw Yue’e, their reactions were even more exaggerated than Duan Yun’s had been, and they were all amazed. It was especially the case for the women, as they were attracted by the demeanor of Yue’e. She seemed like a true fairy who didn’t belong to the mortal world.
“This is…this is my elder sister who has been missing for many years,” Jiang Chen struggled to find a good story. And he hadn’t forgotten what Duan Yun had said when he introduced him.
Yan Yu and her four companions rolled their eyes. The missing sibling crappy excuse had been used by him two times in succession. They were really left speechless!
However, everyone understood clearly that people have their own secrets, and since Jiang Chen wasn’t willing to tell them what was really going on, the others wouldn’t question him intensely.
“Is this an opportunity that will help you leave?” Yue’e, who was still outside, muttered to herself, while her shiny eyes became filled with emotions that no one would be able to understand.
Jiang Chen didn’t even get to have a clear idea of where he was sent before he felt a heatwave assaulting him, and, after a few seconds, he was dripping with sweat. Since he had been affected so greatly even though he possessed a special body, it could be discerned how high this land’s temperature was.
When Jiang Chen’s sight recovered, he understood why it was so hot. He was now up in the sky atop an erupting volcano, and a huge amount of ashes were escaping from the volcano’s crater along with smoke, and it made the sky dusky.
When Jiang Chen looked in the distance, he discovered that the space outside the foot of the mountain was warped and seemed like countless mirrors set up against each other.
“Doe this mean that the test is inside a volcano?” Jiang Chen understood everything, and he used his sword art. He depended upon berserk sword wind to scatter the smoke of the ashes.
Jiang Chen landed before the volcano’s crater, and he immediately felt a heatwave assaulting him, while space became twisted due to such a scalding temperature.
When Jiang Chen lowered his head to take a look, he discovered that the glowing magma was fluctuating, and, sometimes, it would shoot up to dozens of yards in the air.
As Jiang Chen looked around, he didn’t understand the test’s content.
“It doesn’t want me to jump inside, does it?” Jiang Chen wasn’t sure of this, as there was only this volcano here, and all secrets should be in it.
As Jiang Chen pondered over this matter, he took off his black robe and left on just his skin-tight outfit that facilitated movement.
Jiang Chen held the Red Cloud Sword in his hand and used the Celestial Phoenix Art so that he could adapt to this temperature, while flying down little by little. Luckily, he had recovered the ability to fly now.
However, the price he had to pay for his prudence was that he had to face a scalding vapor. He was perspiring profusely, while his mouth and tongue were extremely dry. Moreover, the soles of his feet were heating up quickly.
“Well?”
When Jiang Chen was about to start grumbling, he felt a boundless energy surging from beneath him, and, when he lowered his head to take a look, he discovered that the magma was restless and seemed like boiling water.
SPLASH!
As Jiang Chen got to see a silhouette below him that was gradually becoming more distinct and clear, the magma erupted.
