Qin Shi moved at a speed that he had never seen before. Along the way, lightning flashed around the edge of the volcano. However, the volcano was too tall. It was the tallest mountain that Qin Shi had ever seen.
If he had not seen it with his own eyes, Qin Shi would not have believed that such a tall mountain existed in the world. The funniest thing was that it was a volcano.
He thought that this was probably the highest point in the world.
Of course, this was only his current naive and laughable thoughts. A few years later, when he stood step by step in the position that was forced to him by countless opportunities or coincidences, he would even silently laugh at himself for his naivety and ignorance back then.
Other than ridicule, he felt more disappointment and depression. He wanted to return to the helplessness of the past.
However, he did not know all of this. Now, all he wanted was to reach the peak as quickly as possible. In the crater of the volcano where the Eight Desolates Lethal Weapon was sealed.
"Lingsha, hang in there. Hang in there. We're almost there."
He constantly soothed Zi Lingsha's emotions. Zi Lingsha also behaved abnormally quiet in his arms. Her snow-white hair fluttered gracefully in the cool breeze like snowflakes falling down one by one.
"I believe in you!" Zi Lingsha smiled faintly.
Qin Shi clenched his fists. He could feel that Zi Lingsha's aura was fading rapidly. If he did not reach the peak soon, it would be too late.
"Ahhh!!!"
He roared, his arms shaking violently.
"Buzz, buzz, buzz!!!"
Suddenly, his black eyes flashed. The elemental power around him surged into his body. In an instant, five palaces flashed between his eyebrows.
The evil spirit felt the power in his body and was slightly shocked. "Kid, are you … trying to break through now?"
Qin Shi kept his mouth shut and continued to absorb the power around him.
"Kid, stop. You can't control this power like this!"
Qin Shi's black eyes were resolute. "I can't care so much. My current speed is far from enough. Not enough!
I want to be faster. I want to become faster. I can only be faster! "
"You lunatic!" The evil spirit bared its teeth.
Suddenly, a gentle force spread out from within his body, causing even Qin Shi to feel rather surprised. Soon after, he suddenly turned around and saw an extremely elegant figure looking at him from within the clouds a thousand meters away.
"Is that her?"
Qin Shi was shocked, but he didn't have time to think. The gentle force continued to spread throughout his body like a powerful shock wave. Very quickly, it opened up all the meridians in his body. In the end, it turned into a sparkling black crystal that floated in his Dantian.
From the black crystal, Qin Shi sensed an extremely strange power. This power was filled with sorrow and desolation, as if it was a combination of all the miserable elements in the world.
For a moment, his mind was almost affected. If he had not protected his soul in time, he would have fallen into hell.
But before he could figure it out, the black crystal suddenly began to spin. If Qin Shi's Dantian was an endless sea, then the black crystal was a giant whirlpool.
The whirlpool set off monstrous waves on the sea.
The moment the waves appeared, Qin Shi's body immediately trembled. Soon after, a certain power seemed to be summoned and poured into his body through his pores.
When the power entered his body, Qin Shi was first shocked and subconsciously wanted to resist. But a moment later, a strange light flashed in his eyes and he muttered to himself, "What, what's going on?"
He originally thought that the power would definitely destroy his mind when it entered his body. After all, he had almost died to this strange power … Purgatory Force.
But this time, when the Purgatory Force entered his body, it was extremely smooth. Apart from the stronger negative emotions, it seemed to be no different from ordinary Spiritual Energy.
"Is it because of the black crystal?" Qin Shi immediately understood something and turned around to look at the beautiful figure. "It's her?
Is she helping me? "
Zi Lingsha slightly tilted her jade-like face. When she saw the beautiful figure, she faintly smiled: "En, my, my master, she helped you open the Purgatory Crystal Nucleus. With this black crystal nucleus, you will have the ability to control the power of Purgatory."
"Is that so?"
Qin Shi nodded to himself. He had expected this from the moment he was able to control the Purgatory Force. However, what he could not understand was why Wan Yue wanted to help him.
Moreover, this kind of thing should be against the rules of the region, right?
As if seeing through Qin Shi's confusion, Wan Yue smiled and said, "Brat, I've said it before, Lingsha is my most valued disciple in the past thousand years. Just treat it as her blessing. However, don't easily use the Purgatory Force. Otherwise, if I find out, I'll definitely make you die without a corpse."
Qin Shi looked dissatisfied on the surface, but his heart was filled with warmth. He nodded and said, "Don't worry, I just want to save Lingsha."
"That's for the best. Go." Wan Yue nodded in satisfaction.
Qin Shi nodded. Then, he turned around and raised his head to look at the seemingly endless peak. His black eyes became exceptionally determined.
Taking a deep breath, he stomped his foot.
Swoosh!
The sky was filled with afterimages. Qin Shi's speed was almost illusory. Along the way, his aura was very different from before. Not only did it not weaken, it continued to expand, superimpose, and change several times.
"Buzz buzz buzz!"
Qin Shi's black eyes changed. He began to become more and more excited. The fifth palace between his eyebrows finally became completely full at this moment, flickering with crystal clear lightning.
"Heaven Peak, Fifth Floor!"
Qin Shi successfully completed his breakthrough. With the help of the fifth floor of the Heaven Peak, he broke through the clouds in one fell swoop. When the clouds thinned, he finally saw the magnificent volcanic crater on the mountain peak.
Along with the volcanic crater came a bone-piercing heat.
He bared his teeth, "Lingsha, do you see that?
We're really going to be there soon this time! "
"En …!" Zi Lingsha nodded forcefully. She was really weak to the extreme.
Qin Shi's heart ached. Because of this, he completely ignored the intense flames. He opened a lightning barrier and rushed to the volcanic crater unimpeded.
When he arrived at the volcanic crater, his black robe had already been completely burned. His arms, abdomen, and thighs were all covered in shocking burns.
"Lingsha, is it here?"
"Yes, below, under this volcanic crater, there is a cold pool that is incompatible with it. That cold pool is formed by the Heavenly Spirit Green Water, the bluest liquid in the world. There, there, put me and the Snow Azalea into the cold pool." Zi Lingsha said intermittently.
Hearing this, Qin Shi completely ignored his injuries and nodded in response, "Alright!"
Then, he bent down and looked down. Without thinking, he picked up Zi Lingsha and jumped down.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, at the mouth of the volcano, endless flames surrounded him.
He held onto Zi Lingsha's slender waist with one hand and the Explosive Flame Pearl with the other. When he landed at the bottom of the volcanic crater, there was endless lava. He looked around and shouted crazily, "Where is it, where is it!"
He used his telekinesis power and endless telekinesis power.
However, he was disappointed. In this volcanic crater, his telekinesis power could not even extend 100 meters. He could only search with his naked eyes.
He leaped around the magma like a madman, not even hesitating to use his mortal body to soak in the boiling magma. Right now, as long as he could find the Icy Green Pond, he was willing to do anything.
Fortunately, the heavens did not disappoint those who persevered. When his nerves were stretched to the limit, an extremely dazzling blue fluorescent light shot out from one of the waterfalls formed by lava.
Although the power of the fire waterfall was enough to make a perfected Domain Realm expert feel fearful, it still could not stop the holy blue fluorescent light.
"Over there!"
Qin Shi's eyes flickered with surprise. Then, he pounced into the waterfall like a madman. The lava hit his back, burning his skin and turning him into charcoal.
The temperature of the flames was so high that it was not something that the Explosive Flame Pearl could protect him from.
Zi Lingsha looked at Qin Shi's injuries, and tears rolled down her jade-like eyes. "Qin Shi …"
"Don't make a sound. Hold on a little longer. We're almost there!"
Zi Lingsha clenched her jade-like hands and nodded with force. A bright smile appeared on her face.
"If you can do this to me once in this life, I can die without regrets."
"What nonsense are you talking about? Live on!" Qin Shi roared. Then, he shouted with all his might, "Ahhh!!!"
Boom!
Finally, he passed through the waterfall. Just as Zi Lingsha had said, there was a completely different scene at the end of the fire waterfall.
There was no longer any heat in the waterfall. Instead, there was a bone-chilling cold. Icicles hung upside down on the walls, and the ground was covered in frost.
In the middle of the frost, there was a clear cold pond with a diameter of three meters.
The sparkling Sky Spiritual Green Water flowed slowly in the cold pond, and from time to time, it would emit a faint fluorescent light, making people feel that it was mysterious.
"Is this the cold pond?"
Of course, Qin Shi could not be bothered to admire it now. After receiving Zi Lingsha's response, he quickly strode forward and gently placed Zi Lingsha into the cold pond.
The cold pond was less than half a meter deep, just barely above Zi Lingsha's jade-like neck.
After that, he asked hurriedly, "What should I do next?"
"Activate the Snow Rhododendron and place it in the middle of the cold pond."
Qin Shi was stunned. Then, he quickly raised his hand and the Snow Rhododendron floated into the air.
Activating the Snow Rhododendron was not an easy task. Although it was not an Immortal Grade Spiritual Herb, it was one of the extremely rare and strange spiritual herbs in the world.
To activate it, even Qin Shi had to expend a large amount of spiritual energy.
Every strand of spiritual energy would feel a strong chill and shattering pain.
