C222 Fire Mountain
"Haha... Boss, it's really possible. We didn't waste too much time in each of our trials. The time we have to reach the Death Mountain has been greatly reduced." Dou Bi smiled.
"Let's go!"
A group of people started rushing towards Flame Mountain.
This Flame Mountain was not the Flame Mountain in the West Journey's records. The slopes were steep and steep, and the rocks were rugged. It was pitch black. One look and one could tell that it had been roasted for a long time.
"Dou Bi, is this the Flame Mountain you mentioned?" Zhang Tianhao looked at Dou Bi and asked.
Dou Bi was stunned for a moment, then he slightly nodded and said, "En, boss, this is the place. But this place doesn't always spew flames. This place was very strange. As long as one sensed the Qi of a human, the flames in the ground seemed to appear. Then devour the person! "
" So magical? "
Zhang Tianhao was a little surprised.
At this moment, a wild rabbit ran over from afar. It leisurely ran past the Flame Mountain.
Zhang Tianhao and the others also stared unblinkingly at the wild rabbit. They wanted to see if this wild rabbit could pass through the Flame Mountain. The wild rabbit's speed wasn't slow either. In just a dozen breaths of time, it had already crossed half of the distance. It was close to the center of the Flame Mountain. However, nothing happened at all. Just when Zhang Tianhao and the others thought that the wild rabbit was going to survive. Suddenly, a ball of flame spurted out from the underground of Flame Mountain. The wild rabbit didn't have any reaction at all, it turned into ashes in an instant.
"Hiss!"
Zhang Tianhao's men could not help but suck in a cold breath. They never thought that such a cute little rabbit would be killed by the flames just like that. It seemed like the Flame Mountain was surrounded by hidden killing intent!
"What should we do?"
Dou Bi and the others had no idea what to do. They just looked at Zhang Tianhao.
"Yes, no matter what, we have to go there. I have observed that the flames underground might have sensed the True Qi on a martial artist's body. As long as we carefully restrain the True Qi on our bodies, it shouldn't cause the underground flames. "
Although Zhang Tianhao said so, he didn't have the slightest assurance in his heart.
"Then let's go!" Dou Bi nodded with a serious expression.
Just as they were about to leave, a figure appeared beside Zhang Tianhao and the others. It was a grey-clothed youth. He was around eighteen years old. He was Xiao Kuang.
Zhang Tianhao had once discovered many examinees who were over sixteen years old. At first, he was a little puzzled. But later on, it was not strange that he had seen them. He found out from Dou Bi. Each of the more prestigious families in North Domain. For example, the Xiao family, Lee family, or Cai family all had some recommendations. These recommendations were not restricted by the age limit of sixteen. Of course, even with these recommendations, it did not mean that one's age would be relaxed. It was just an appropriate relaxation. If one exceeded 18 years old, even if there were recommendation quotas, the various academies wouldn't accept them.
Zhang Tianhao understood that although the so-called fairness in each major academy's exam was only relative fairness, absolute fairness did not exist.
Xiao Kuang glanced at Zhang Tianhao indifferently and was about to rush towards Flame Mountain.
"Brother Xiao, wait!"
Zhang Tianhao hastily shouted.
Xiao Kuang looked at Zhang Tianhao and frowned.
"Brother Xiao, there is a huge risk in Flame Mountain. Brother Xiao, don't you want to wait and see before moving?" Zhang Tianhao looked at Xiao Kuang and tried to persuade him.
Zhang Tianhao had a good impression of Xiao Kuang. When he fought Tree Demon King in the forest. Xiao Kuang had also led the way. Although he had escaped in the end. However, that was only when his life was in danger, so it was understandable. He had truly fought to the last moment. Although Zhang Tianhao had a conflict with Vice Alliance Master and Huo Xiu of the Seven Stars Alliance, this had nothing to do with Xiao Kuang.
Xiao Kuang smiled and said, "We have to watch and see. There is no need to be cautious!"
Xiao Kuang was very confident. Even Zhang Tianhao was aroused by his opponent's success.
"Alright, Brother Xiao's words make sense. Since we have to enter, why should we be so cautious?" Zhang Tianhao said with a loud laugh.
"Let's go!"
Zhang Tianhao no longer hesitated and said to Dou Bi and the others.
Dou Bi still hesitated and said to Zhang Tianhao, "Boss, are you not going to think about it anymore?"
"No need to think about it, as long as you do your best to hide the True Qi on your body."
He did not know if Xiao Kuang also knew about Zhang Tianhao's method. He walked very slowly. Without using the True Qi, his speed naturally wouldn't be fast.
Xiao Kuang looked at Zhang Tianhao and saw that he had also brought people to follow him, so he grinned. This could be considered as a greeting to him.
He didn't know if Zhang Tianhao and his men's method was effective. At least one-tenth of the way, there was no fire coming out of the ground.
After they had walked a tenth of the way smoothly, Zhang Tianhao and the others started to feel happy. It would be great if the following steps were as smooth as before. However, at this moment, a flame spurted out from underneath Dou Bi's feet.
"Be careful!"
Zhang Tianhao reacted quickly and grabbed Dou Bi's body. He pulled ___ away. A fire dragon rushed out from where he was just now. Luckily, Zhang Tianhao had saved Dou Bi. Otherwise, this fire dragon... He could totally burn Dou Bi to ashes.
Although Zhang Tianhao had only used his physical strength, the surrounding fire dragons seemed to have sensed some kind of Qi. They gushed out crazily towards Zhang Tianhao and the others.
Xiao Kuang was also affected by Zhang Tianhao and the others. The surrounding fire dragons were also crazily sweeping towards him.
At this moment, Zhang Tianhao was overwhelmed with anxiety. The flames in the ground were no ordinary flames. They were the flames of the earth's core, which belonged to the category of earth fire. Zhang Tianhao and the others would definitely not be able to stop it. Now, it had only just emerged. After a long time, even more earth fire surged out. These people would be completely incinerated.
"Boss, there is a stone platform over there. There seems to be no flames around it. Let's go over there and avoid it first." Dou Bi said while wiping the sweat off his body.
Zhang Tianhao looked over and found a black platform that seemed to be made of rocks. It seemed to be about thirty square meters. He didn't know if it was because these rocks were avoiding fire, but there was no earth fire around them. At this moment, this was the only place that was not affected by the flames.
"Brother Xiao Kuang, let's go there first!"
Zhang Tianhao said to Xiao Kuang.
Xiao Kuang was also affected by Zhang Tianhao and the others. Therefore, Zhang Tianhao also reminded him.
Xiao Kuang was currently in a sorry state because of the earth fire. Although his combat strength was strong, when faced with the power of nature, there's nothing I can do. Hearing Zhang Tianhao's words and looking at the platform... His eyes lit up. Nodding his head, he took the lead and flew away.
Zhang Tianhao and the others jumped onto the platform. At least they had some time to catch their breath.
