Yang Dingtian was indeed going crazy!
This magma was completely bottomless, and the temperature was thousands of degrees. It was not inferior to molten steel at all.
If it was not anti-gravity, it would be fine. If a person stepped on a sword and floated on the magma, they would be able to slide out with a little force.
However, what the hell was anti-gravity.
Yang Dingtian was now a two-star third-class grandmaster, and his cultivation was many times stronger than before.
However, this was his cultivation base. His body still could not withstand the high temperature of thousands of degrees, and he still had to use his mystic qi to resist it.
Therefore, he had to resist ten times the anti-gravity and use an energy shield to resist the terrifying heat.
The mystic qi in Yang Dingtian's body was like tap water, flowing with gushing sounds.
However, the Demon Vulture King's body was so big, so the energy shield had to be incomparably large.
"I have to think of a way to cross this Flaming Plains in the shortest time possible."
Yang Dingtian said, "According to the mystic qi consumption rate of my energy shield, it will be completely exhausted in less than two hours."
Originally, with Yang Dingtian's cultivation, an energy shield with a diameter of only two to three meters could only be maintained for about fifteen minutes.
Now, Yang Dingtian could maintain an energy shield of more than ten meters for two hours. This cultivation base had increased by many times.
However, an hour was indeed too short.
"Madam, what do you think we should do?" Yang Dingtian asked, "How do we get there?"
Ling Bi said, "Do you have to ask me about such an important matter?"
Yang Dingtian said, "We came to the Taboo Continent to cultivate. We can't play any tricks. We have to use the stupidest, stupidest, and most difficult method."
Ling Bi immediately stared at Yang Dingtian. Was he saying that she was stupid?
Yang Dingtian said, "So, Madam, don't think too much. Just tell me the method in your mind."
"Do you really want me to say it?" Ling Bi said.
"Yes, I really want you to say it." Yang Dingtian said.
Ling Bi said, "I just said that there is magma everywhere, and there is no path, so we will directly create a path."
Yang Dingtian was stunned and asked, "How, how do I create it?"
Ling Bi said, "After the magma cools and solidifies, it will turn into hard rocks. Therefore, I directly input ice energy to cool and solidify the magma and create a path."
After Yang Dingtian heard this, he was stunned, and then suddenly trembled.
The Demon Vulture King was also stunned, and then it suddenly trembled.
Holy shit!
This method was really, really difficult and stupid!
In fact, Yang Dingtian had already come up with a bunch of ideas.
For example, stabbing the treasured sword into the lava to create a suction force. Then, the Mystic Fire would spurt out and turn into a primitive rocket, directly flying forward with a whoosh.
Or, he could directly use the propulsion of the Condensation Pill to advance.
In short, the magma was terrifying at first, but in reality, it was easier to cross it than the Hard Rock Plains.
The only important point was to pay attention to the ten times anti-gravity, and let the Emperor Grade soul sword firmly grasp the sea of magma at all times.
However, Yang Dingtian knew deeply that although the destination was the ice palace, the bitter cultivation on the way was more important. If he took advantage of the opportunity to go to the ice palace, his cultivation would not break through at all.
Therefore, he had to use the most difficult and stupid method.
And Ling Bi, without a doubt, proposed the stupidest method.
Using profound qi to solidify a path in the sea of magma!
Fortunately, Yang Dingtian had cultivated the fourth stage of the Pig Slaying Swordsmanship. Otherwise, it would be impossible to solidify the magma.
"Claw, do you know ice energy?" Yang Dingtian asked.
The Demon Vulture King shook its head desperately, indicating that it didn't.
"Alright, then you'll be in charge of walking." Yang Dingtian said.
The Demon Vulture King nodded desperately, beaming with joy.
Yang Dingtian pulled out the Emperor Grade soul sword and stabbed it into the magma.
"Swoosh …" A powerful ice profound qi was injected into the soul sword.
However, it was useless.
This ice profound qi was like mud sinking into the sea.
Yang Dingtian understood. Because the heat of the magma sea was too terrifying, the ice profound qi that Yang Dingtian injected was instantly offset.
There was no other way. Yang Dingtian immediately increased the output of the ice profound qi.
"Ka ka ka …"
As expected, it was effective. The magma within a radius of three meters began to solidify at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Then, Yang Dingtian discovered that the ground after solidifying was almost exactly the same as the hard rock plain. What the hell was going on?
However, he couldn't care less at this moment.
"I'm going to remove the energy barrier. Next, you guys have to use your profound qi to resist the heat of the surrounding air." Yang Dingtian said.
In any case, as long as they weren't directly touched by the magma, their bodies wouldn't be burned and the energy barrier could be removed.
In this way, Yang Dingtian and the others used the stupidest method. They stabbed their swords into the magma and injected their ice profound qi to solidify the magma. They created a path and then walked along this path.
Later, Yang Dingtian discovered that a three-meter road was not reasonable. Thus, he increased his profound qi and directly solidified a road that was more than ten meters long. Suddenly, the consumption of profound qi was even more astonishing!
… ….
In this way, Yang Dingtian solidified the magma all the way and created a path in the magma sea.
As soon as they set foot on a new solidified road, the road behind them would be melted because the heat here was too shocking.
Six hours later, the two humans and one beast had traveled a hundred and twenty li!
That's right, this speed was already quite astonishing.
Yang Dingtian not only had to solidify the road, but also resist ten times the anti-gravity and thousands of degrees of high temperature.
Three hours, 120 miles, Yang Dingtian's profound qi had been exhausted.
"Ah Claw, how long can your profound qi last?" Yang Dingtian asked.
The Demon Vulture King stretched out two fingers, indicating that its profound qi energy could still last for four hours.
As expected of a demon beast, it was completely different from a human.
If it was a human Grandmaster, they would be able to last for two hours before their profound qi was exhausted.
But the Demon Vulture King could actually last for ten hours.
Yang Dingtian's mind began to calculate!
It would take less than two hours for him to recover his profound qi with the Xuan Gathering Pill.
However, ordinary devouring of battle profound qi would take about four to six hours.
Yang Dingtian's profound qi, while creating a road, could resist the anti-gravity and heat at the same time. It could last for six hours.
In the past six hours, Ling Bi had been lying on the Demon Vulture King's stomach to rest.
Ling Bi was a nine-star Grandmaster. If she were to create a road and advance at the same time, she probably wouldn't be able to last for an hour.
Especially creating a road, the consumption of profound qi was too terrifying. Ling Bi couldn't bear it at all.
Yang Dingtian climbed onto the Demon Vulture King's stomach, then handed the sword to Ling Bi and said, "Madam, you don't have to do anything next. Continue to lie on Ah Claw's stomach, stab the sword into the magma, and keep injecting profound qi into it. Keep the ground solidified for about five feet.
When you can't hold on any longer, wake me up. "
Ling Bi nervously grabbed Yang Dingtian's soul sword that was close to the emperor grade. She kept reciting Yang Dingtian's words and tried her best to memorize them.
She really felt a lot of pressure. This was the first time Yang Dingtian had given her such an important task.
She memorized it over and over again, extremely nervous.
Yang Dingtian asked, "Madam, is there a problem?"
"I, I'm afraid I can't do it well." Ling Bi said, "Keep the ground we are standing on solidified for about five feet, right?
Is it round or square? "
"Both, both are fine." Yang Dingtian said, "In fact, with your ability, you can only make it round."
"Ah, what?" Ling Bi said.
"Nothing, nothing."
Yang Dingtian said, "Stab the sword down and keep the ground solidified for five feet. Just let Ah Claw have a place to stand."
"Oh, okay, okay."
Ling Bi grabbed Yang Dingtian's sword and stabbed it into the ground. She said with a trembling voice, "Why don't you not close your eyes first? See if I do it right, then you can recover your profound qi. Okay?"
"Okay." Yang Dingtian said.
After Ling Bi stabbed the sword into the magma, she began to count her profound qi and injected it into the ground.
This ground was originally solidified by Yang Dingtian and was melting. So, as long as she continued to inject ice-cold profound qi, it would be fine.
"Mm, well done." Yang Dingtian said, "Then I'll rest."
Ling Bi gave Yang Dingtian an extremely unnatural smile, and then carefully maintained the five feet of solidified ground. No matter if it was a little more or a little less, she was scared witless and felt as if her entire body was about to collapse.
Heavens, she must have been scolded since she was young. To be able to break through to the Master Stage like this, she was really amazing.
Because it was Ling Bi's first time, when Yang Dingtian recovered his profound qi, he could only use the Xuan Gathering Pill. Therefore, in just half an hour, his battle profound qi was filled to the brim.
However, he still did not wake up. He wanted to see how long Ling Bi could last.
One had to know that she had been lying on the Demon Vulture King's stomach and had been full of profound qi.
Now, she was still lying on the Demon Vulture King's stomach and did not need to resist the anti-gravity.
Soon, the results were out.
Ling Bi did not need to care about anything. She just had to inject profound qi to maintain the solidified ground with a diameter of five feet. She could last for four hours!
Yang Dingtian woke up.
Instantly, Ling Bi was on the verge of tears. Her entire face turned pale.
"En, you did well."
Yang Dingtian said, "Next time, when you solidify the ground, A Claw will not be motionless. It will keep walking forward. You need to continuously solidify the ground. Walk as far as you can."
"Ah …" Ling Bi screamed, "I'm afraid I can't do it well. I'm afraid I can't do it well!"
"I believe in you."
Yang Dingtian then took the sword and said, "Now, you should rest and start recovering your profound qi."
"It will take a long time for me to recover my battle profound qi." Ling Bi said.
"Don't worry!" Yang Dingtian said.
… ….
Yang Dingtian held onto the artifact sword and abruptly stabbed it into the ground as he poured in his mystic qi.
This ice profound qi was more than ten times that of Ling Bi.
Moreover, Ling Bi could only create a circular solidified ground, which was a huge waste. As for Yang Dingtian, it was completely rectangular, just like a road.
"Swish!" Ice profound qi poured in crazily, and then a dozen meters long hard stone ground was immediately formed.
At this time, the Demon Vulture King's profound qi was also exhausted.
Ling Bi was lying on its stomach, while Yang Dingtian had to carry the Demon Vulture King on his back and continue forward.
This place was ten times the anti-gravity, so the Demon Vulture King became 50,000 jin again.
Thus, Yang Dingtian had to carry 50,000 jin to resist the anti-gravity and the surrounding hot energy. He also had to pour in ice profound qi to solidify the road.
Without a doubt, this was probably the most bitter and difficult type of cultivation, known as bitter cultivation.
Just like this, Yang Dingtian carried the Demon Vulture King on his back and walked step by step in the endless magma plain.
He could only pray that this magma plain wasn't too big, just a few thousand li. If it was tens of thousands of li, then Yang Dingtian would even have the heart to die.
… ….
Four hours later, Yang Dingtian's profound qi had been exhausted by nearly 90%, but he had walked a full 130 li.
That's right, in the previous three hours, without carrying the Demon Vulture King, Yang Dingtian had only walked 120 li. Now, he had directly walked 130 li.
It wasn't that his cultivation had become stronger, but that he could use his profound qi more rationally.
Now, he had less than 10% of his profound qi left, so he couldn't move forward.
At this time, the Demon Vulture King and Ling Bi had not recovered, and it would take at least six hours to recover.
Thus, Yang Dingtian carried the Demon Vulture King and Ling Bi on his back, closed his eyes, and reduced the amount of ice profound qi output by many times.
Suddenly, the solidified ground he had created began to melt, melt!
When it melted to only a foot, Yang Dingtian continued to pour in profound qi to maintain this foot of solid ground, so that he could have a foothold.
Just like this, he carried the Demon Vulture King on his back and stood on the foot of solid ground, motionless!
After more than two hours, when Yang Dingtian's profound qi was about to be exhausted.
Ling Bi and the Demon Vulture King had completely recovered their profound qi and woke up almost at the same time.
Yang Dingtian suddenly poured all of his remaining profound qi into the ground.
Suddenly, the ground within a dozen meters of him froze.
The Demon Vulture King, Ah Zao, immediately poured in profound qi, firmly grasped the ground, and slowly moved forward.
Yang Dingtian looked tired and handed the sword to Ling Bi, "Madam, it's up to you now.
You still don't have to worry about anything. After Ah Zao walks out twenty feet, you pull out the sword and stab it into the ground twenty feet away. Then, continue to pour in profound qi, understand? "
"Twenty feet per stab, right?" Ling Bi was so nervous that tears gushed out.
"Yes, twenty feet per stab.
The time for each stab is about ten breaths of time for you. "Yang Dingtian said proudly.
"Oh, twenty feet per stab, twenty feet per stab, ten breaths of time for each stab, ten breaths of time for each stab." Ling Bi recited desperately.
"Twenty-one stab, ten breaths of time for each stab!
Twenty-one stab, ten breaths of time for each stab! "
Suddenly, Yang Dingtian was stunned!
Clearly, every twenty feet of sword was stabbed into the ground once, and every time it was stabbed into the ground, it would take ten breaths of time for each stab.
In the end, she recited twenty-one stab, ten breaths of time for each stab.
Even though Yang Dingtian was extremely tired at this moment, after hearing her words, he couldn't help but be lost in thought.
Yang Dingtian patted the Demon Vulture King's neck and said, "Ah Zao, it's up to you."
The Demon Vulture King nodded.
That's right, it was indeed up to the Demon Vulture King!
Because Ling Bi was very dogmatic, she could only stab twenty feet per stab, and inject ice profound qi for ten breaths of time for each stab.
Therefore, the Demon Vulture King had to fully cooperate with her. All the rhythm had to be controlled by the Demon Vulture King. Once there was a mistake, it would be troublesome.
If it was light, it would be burnt. If it was heavy, it would directly fall into the deep space.
But Yang Dingtian had no choice. Who asked the Demon Vulture King to be the one with the highest intelligence other than Yang Dingtian? He could only hand the heavy responsibility to it.
Sigh!
Yang Dingtian sighed in his heart.
They were all beautiful women, but why was the gap between them so big?
When he was with Wu Mozhi, Yang Dingtian's brain stopped working and he became a silly Guo Jing.
But when he was with Ling Bi in front of him, Yang Dingtian directly changed from Guo Jing to Zhuge Liang.
This span was too big.
"Ah Zao, it's all up to you."
Yang Dingtian said in his heart. Then, lying on Ah Zao's stomach, he took another Xuan Gathering Pill and began to recover his profound qi.
How many Xuan Gathering Pills did Yang Dingtian bring?
There were hundreds of them. He thought it was enough.
But now, there weren't many left. At first, because he was anxious, he wasted a lot.
Now, there were only a dozen left.
Now, he didn't use the Spirit Jade. He needed the shortest time to recover his profound qi, so he endured the pain and used another one.
After only half an hour, Yang Dingtian had recovered his profound qi.
But Yang Dingtian still didn't open his eyes. He had to let Ling Bi complete it alone. When it was really dangerous, he would take action.
Ling Bi lay on the Demon Vulture King's stomach and kept chanting, "Twenty feet, twenty-one stabs."
In fact, Ah Zao's claws were only about five feet. The hard stone ground made by Ling Bi was just enough for it to stand on.
And every step it took was exactly twenty feet.
Therefore, when the ground was about to melt and the five feet of hard road in front was completed, Ah Zao took another step forward. Each step was twenty feet. This saved Ling Bi the trouble of counting foot by foot.
Like this, after half a minute, the Demon Vulture King was able to move five feet forward and then stood still.
"Ten stabs at a time." Ling Bi stabbed the sword into the magma and injected profound qi.
"One time, two times, three times, four times, five times …" Ling Bi was afraid that she couldn't hear her own breathing, so she took deep breaths. Moreover, every breath was exactly the same in a very mechanical manner. It was really hard on her.
After ten breaths, the new five feet of hard ground was completed. At this moment, the hard stone ground behind was about to melt.
Ah Zao took another step forward!
*****
More than four hours later, Ling Bi's profound qi was exhausted.
Yang Dingtian woke up!
In these four hours, he had advanced two miles!
That's right, it was the great five miles road. It was faster than a snail.
The moment Yang Dingtian woke up, Ling Bi burst into tears and threw herself into Yang Dingtian's arms.
She, she was really going to collapse. She was really going to collapse.
After completing such a difficult task, her only belief was that Yang Dingtian would wake up soon. Yang Dingtian would wake up soon.
At this moment, her dependence on Yang Dingtian had reached an incomparable level.
… ….
Just like this, Yang Dingtian led the Demon Vulture King and Ling Bi.
In the sea of magma, they used ice profound qi to create a road and advanced with great difficulty.
If the first day was counted as twenty-four hours, they walked about two hundred miles!
The second day, they walked three hundred miles.
The third day, they walked four hundred miles.
The fourth day, they walked four hundred and fifty miles.
The fifth day, they walked four hundred and fifty-five miles!
… ….
He didn't know how many days had passed, but Yang Dingtian had walked five hundred miles.
Anyway, he didn't know how many days had passed, but Yang Dingtian's face was already haggard.
At five hundred miles, it was very difficult to improve.
How long had Yang Dingtian been walking?
It should have been more than a hundred days!
In other words, Yang Dingtian had walked another tens of thousands of miles.
Wasn't it thousands of miles?
When he saw the ice palace in the sky, it was clearly very close.
Yang Dingtian thought it was a few hundred miles, but then he thought it was a few thousand miles, and then ten thousand miles.
However, he had walked thirty thousand miles.
Then, he had walked fifty thousand miles.
Then, he had walked eighty thousand miles!
Then, he had walked a hundred thousand miles!
There was still no trace of that ice palace!
Yang Dingtian once again fell into a state of madness and despair. He already felt that he had taken the wrong path, or that the ice palace was an illusion.
But the strange thing was that among the two people and one beast present, he was the only one who had broken down in despair.
Ling Bi didn't feel anything. Anyway, as long as someone took care of her and ordered her, she wasn't worried at all. She didn't care how far she had to go.
And the Demon Vulture King's incomparably thick nerves could already perform a play with himself.
Therefore, the only one who was about to break down was Yang Dingtian!
How long had Yang Dingtian been walking?
How far had he walked?
In the Hard Rock Continent, he had only walked less than a hundred thousand miles.
The remaining tens of thousands of miles were all flown by the palace.
This even more terrifying Flaming Plains, he thought it was a few thousand miles, but not more than ten thousand miles.
In fact, the two people and one beast had walked for a full year!
More than three hundred days, a full two hundred thousand miles.
Yang Dingtian had become a living robot, only walking numbly.
Until one day, he looked up.
The incomparably huge ice palace was floating in the air.
The second trial of the Taboo Continent, the Flaming Plains, had been passed!
