Clang! Clang!

"…Zho..Yi!.." sounds of clashing metals echoes while someone calls out Zhong Yi's name.

'urgh' Zhong Yi groaned and his brows creased before slowly waking up.

"..Zhong Yi!!!" Chen Yun's voice was discernible heard by Zhong Yi for a while later.

Clang! Clang!

Awooo!

The fight between Chen Yun and the Swift Golden Wolf King was still going on.

Zhong Yi slowly raised his eyelids and saw that he was at a scalding and fiery location. He also hears 'glug glug' sounds and he feels that this place has a dense flame elemental energy that was comfortable laying here.

"ZHONG YI!!" Chen Yun's voice was now clear and like a thunder as it resounded on Zhong Yi's ears.

Zhong Yi woke up from his daze and quickly stood up and looks around where the owner of that voice's location.

He now clearly sees where they were; they were in a large dome that was filled with the yellow light of intense heat which came from the river of lava and was connected to the central region where a large lake that was made up of lava. The place was wide and large that he can see the horizon and was hard to discern the end of this place as if it was in another world.

In Zhong Yi's estimation, the radius of this dome was fifty kilometers!

It was clear that they some sort of appears inside a volcano!

But he didn't think any further as he then saw that Chen Yun and the wolf king was now on deadlock, as their claws and gauntlets crisscross each other.

The shock was written on his face as he remembered everything, very quickly, he waved his hands and perform different hand seals.

Whoosh!

A large formation appears below Chen Yun as he was buffed with the same formation.

When the wolf king saw this, it quickly retreats itself and landed fifty meters aways from Chen Yun.

Grrrr!

The wolf king snarled and suddenly the golden furs on his body swiveled as its body return to its size which was five meters.

Crack! Crack!

The wolf king stomped the ground as cracks appear underneath its paws.

Awoooo!

It howls indistinct red gases exuded from the wolf king's body.

"Chen Yun be careful of that gas!" Zhong Yi worriedly shouted.

"I know!" Chen Yun replied as he looks at the exuding red gases.

Groooaarr!

A strong flame elemental energy fluctuation erupted from the central region of the dome where a lake which was made up of lava was at. The lava as if like water vibrates and shakes as it dances from left to right, it continues a while longer.

Boom!

An explosion occurs like a volcanic eruption, the large quantity of magma flew on different location as a shadow that was covered by the dense smoke and ashes stood at the central lake that made up of lava.

When the three of them felt the elemental energy fluctuation as if they were electrocuted, as their hairs and furs stood an end as they shake intensely in fear!

"H-ho-Horizon Realm Demonic Beast!" Zhong Yi screamed in despair.

Whoosh!

The ferocious and intelligent Swift Golden Wolf King suddenly turns into a golden shadow as it quickly escaped and headed to the edge of this dome.

'Not good' Chen Yun thought.

Whoosh!

He swiftly and nimbly waves his hand.

Cloud Hands Art: Evaporation Stage!

Cloud Hands Art: Forming Stage!

Cloud Hands Art: Condensation Stage!

And he formed and condensed a rainbow horse, its appearance was quite comical because it looks like a bit girlish to look at but he had no time to think about that as he quickly leaped and rode the back of the horse.

"Zhong Yi, come!" Chen Yun called out Zhong Yi.a

With no further ado, Zhong Yi quickly leaped up and rode next to Chen Yun while Chen Yun kicked the horse that neighs and runs quickly and follows the Swift Golden Wolf King's golden shadow.

The speed of the wolf king was so swift that it really lives upon its name being swift!

Even with the speed of the condensed horse that Chen Yun created couldn't come up with the wolf king's superb speed.

Luckily, Chen Yun and Zhong Yi changed their ride into a condensed flying beast!

The flying beast looks like a large eagle as its talons were so sharp and its eyes that were way clearer than the water. Its feather was a bit funny though it looked like an eagle its feather was like a parrot as its color was made up of rainbow colors.

The rainbow eagle that Chen Yun and Zhong Yi was riding flew upwards and they saw a vast place they were in, they quickly saw a large demonic beast in the middle of a lake which was made up of lava with a height of one kilometer!

Its width was three-hundred meters, it looks like a giant monster that nearly reached its head on the ceiling of the dome.

Its head was like a head of a mudfish, and a bit snake's head as its eyes glimmers in red like the fiery lava that fell from its body like a falls. Its body was akin to the body of a dragon but with a difference of not having a pair of wings at its back.

"Wingless Flame Dragon!" Zhong Yi exclaimed in shock and fear.

"What is that?" Chen Yun pointed something behind of the Wingless Flame Dragon.

A large and round tree was standing behind the Wingless Flame Dragon, its body was burning in the fire of its branches and leaves were hard like steel.

It was a one-hundred meter in width and its trunk was touching the ceiling of the dome that even from a long distance where Zhong Yi and Chen Yun was located, still clearly discernible.

"It is really indeed true that a Wingless Flame Dragon protects a Fiery Pillar Tree!" Zhong Yi replied as he hardly controlled his self from breathing heavily.

"What is Fiery Pillar Tree?" Chen Yun asked.

When Zhong Yi heard his question, his expressions changed as he felt weird but he didn't care as he casually replied him, "The Fiery Pillar Tree was said to have a fruit that can help any demonic beast or even we, humans jump into one rank! In terms of having a great benefits, it clearly is greater for the demonic beast because they didn't need to refine it like us that takes up one to three months before we finally consume one piece of its fruit, and if a fool person would just take it directly without any proper way of consuming it only death awaits him as his body explode into a meat paste. But there is another wondrous thing about its fruit and that is there is no limitation on how many we needed to take!" Zhong Yi excitedly explained regarding the information about the Fiery Pillar Tree.

"That good?" Chen Yun's eyes flickered as he replied

"Yes, that's what really good about it!" Zhong Yi greedily answered as his mouth was a bit watery.

"If there are pros, then there is naturally a con, then what would it be?" Chen Yun asked again.

"It takes one-hundred years to bear one fruit" Zhong Yi answered with a smile.

Caw! Caw! Caw!

Like a bucket of cold water woke Chen Yun and Zhong Yi on their great fantasies.

"That long!?" Zhong Yi and Chen Yun at the same time said those words.

"Hey, why are you so shocked? I would be the one who will be naturally shocked." Chen Yun asked weirdly.

"Uhg, I just realized that it was too long for us to wait here for one-hundred years!" Zhong Yi quickly scratched his head as his face turned a bit red.

Groaaar!!!

Chen Yun and Zhong Yi turned and looked at the giant demon beast at the central region, seeing that the eyes of both of them with the red fiery eyes of the Wingless Flame Dragon!

'Crap!'

"We need to descend! My elemental energy couldn't sustain the continuous flying." Chen Yun said as his brows creased.

Suddenly Zhong Yi reached out his hands and a jade bottle appears on his hands while saying, "Take this bottle, it contains fifty of Elemental Energy Recovery Pills inside, I think that should be enough to reach the edge of this place."

'Whoa, rich kid!' Chen Yun thought as he quickly grabbed the jade bottle on Zhong Yi's hand while saying, "Thanks."

In which Zhong Yi only smiled for his reply.

Chen Yun quickly opened the bottle and a fragrant aroma that hints of elemental energy fluctuation came out from the jade bottles mouth.

He picked out one recovery pill and took it, a clear and vivid blue colored aura surrounds his body while the pill inside his stomach dissolved like snow and transformed into a large sphere of elemental energy which he guided through his meridian towards his dantian.

While Chen Yun was feeling the elemental energy from the recovery pill, the Wingless Flame Dragon didn't just stand there like a puppet as it hates an intruder coming from its lair, and wakes his deep slumber.

It clenched its claws as it raised the pair of claws and hammered down the lake made of lava.

Boom!

Like a bomb explodes underwater, the lava flew upwards surrounding the Wingless Flame Dragon which covers its body.

ROAAR!

But with a great roar, the flying lava suddenly turned into many small fiery spherical ball like a side of an adult's fist and shoots accurately towards the fleeing groups.

But the Wingless Flame Dragon didn't just stop there as it flaps its wings and a sudden birth of tsunamis which was made up of lava rose from the tranquil lake of lava which rushed and also chased behind the fleeing Swift Gilden Wolf King.

Awooo!

When the wolf king sense this, a howl of regret and fear was intermixed on it, regretting that it chased Chen Yun and Zhong Yi that leads to his perilous situation right now, but it couldn't blame them for those humans didn't even expected this to become like this. Thus, it quickly resized itself as it turned smaller in exchange for a swifter and faster speed which was five times faster than before that it was like a lightning bolt that rushed towards the edge of the dome.

"Chen Yun this is bad, we are chased by plenty of fireballs behind!!" Zhong Yi said terrified.

Chen Yun snapped open his eyes and turned to look at his back and his expression quickly changed as he saw plenty of fireballs indeed!

Chen Yun quickly opens his arms wide and all the elemental energy inside and outside his body gathers around him as he channeled his Minor Gathering Technique.

Cloud Hands Art: Forming Stage!

Chen Yun activated Forming Stage and his left hand was placed above while his right was placed below while the palms were facing each other, and the middle of the two hands of his was a circular tortoiseshell which was starting to condense.

Cloud Hands Art: Condensation Stage!

Chen Yun quickly pushed forward his two hands and the tortoiseshell quickly condensed and started to enlarge itself. When the shell reached a height of five meters and he then placed it behind the rainbow eagle

Boboboboboom....!!!!!

The consecutive large explosion echoed from the skies as large fireworks bloom above.

Glug glug glug!

The great lava wave was now clearer as it jumps out from the tranquil lake and chased towards the lightning fast Swift Golden Wolf King!

....

Not far away from where Chen Yun and Zhong Yi who were receiving the barrage of fireballs and the now chased by the lava wave wolf king at the edge of the dome, an ancient door was placed.

Boom!

A loud explosion appears and the door was exploded into pieces and different aura exuded ranges from Rank One of Earthen Realm to the First Rank of the Horizon Realm!

Their faces were so happy as if they unlocked something, but it soon changed as they saw large fireworks in the skies and a massive lava wave on the ground which was rushing to them.

There is five Horizon Realm practitioner standing and one of the leading group was a red-haired middle-aged man suddenly spoke.

"Someone woke up the demonic beast!"
