ver their bodies. However, they rely more on spirit stones because ingesting too many elixirs in a short period can cause spiritual energy stagnation, affecting their strength. In severe cases, excess...Under the scorching sun, in the land of flames that covered thousands of miles, Lu Ye took off his shirt, exposing his upper body. He carried the Pianshan Sword and walked forward step by step.

Without activating his spiritual energy for protection, he allowed the intense heat to encroach upon him, using it to enhance his body's resistance to this harsh environment. This also allowed him to more directly perceive his limits.

When Lu Ye was a miner in the Xie Yue Valley, he was subjected to intense labor and lacked food and clothing. As a result, his physique remained somewhat slender.

These scars are all marks of his bloody battles with the enemy.

Actually, I stayed at Bi Xue Zong for a month after returning from the inner circle. My second senior sister has used her medical skills to erase the scars he had left on his body.

All the monsters that live here are fire-type monsters. They were attracted to this place because of its unique environment, as they grow much faster here than anywhere else.

The deeper one goes, the stronger the monsters encountered become. Fortunately, Lu Ye has not yet encountered anything beyond his capabilities.

The slain monster beasts were not wasted. Their blood was collected, and some special parts of their bodies were materials for refining artifacts. The fur on the monster beasts could even be sold, and even their flesh and blood were great supplements for cultivators.

Amber likes to eat these the most.

Yiyi had contacted Lu Ye, and learned that Jujia had already taken her and Amber away from Wuyin Mountain, hiding in a secret place. Lu Ye told them to stay hidden and wait for him to finish his business here before they met up.

As night descended and the full moon ascended, the Land of Fire remained largely unaffected by the darkness. It was still unbearably hot.

Keep moving forward.

On the third morning after leaving the hive, Lu Ye had ventured deep into the heart of the Burning Lands. According to the detailed map, he was less than two hundred li from the very center of the Burning Lands.

Even Li Ye's robust physique felt strained venturing this deep.

This place's intense heat can only be withstood to a certain degree. Since last night, Lu Ye has been using his spiritual energy to protect himself, which is barely enough to get him this far.

By this point, even with spiritual energy protecting them, it would be very difficult to continue forward.

After walking a distance to make sure there was nothing amiss, Lu Ye directly summoned his Spirit Boat and flew forward.

The flying device moves much faster than walking, covering dozens of miles in a short time.

Suddenly, the land-born leaf who was floating in mid-air stopped his movements and stood on the spirit boat, looking down at the world below.

Lu Ye was surprised to find someone here.

Since yesterday, he hadn't even seen a single monster beast, yet here he was encountering a human.

He should not be dead yet, because Lu Ye could feel the other's vitality.

This person is probably also here in the firelands seeking treasure. Being able to withstand this harsh environment and reach this point speaks volumes about their strength.

Looking at the other party's current posture, it seems they've also reached their limit. Otherwise, there's no way they could be lying here motionless.

Just as Lu Ye was about to activate his Insight Rune to carefully observe the other party's cultivation level, the woman suddenly stood up straight. Her crimson eyes met Lu Ye's with a chill.

Lu Ye turned his head to the side. The woman who had just been crawling on the ground was now standing, her hands and feet firmly planted on the ground. Flames of spiritual energy surged around her body, her fiery red hair billowing in the wind. She bared her teeth at Lu Ye, looking like a cheetah about to pounce on its prey.

The opponent's spiritual energy was surging wildly, their aura so brilliant that Lu Ye was taken aback.

Even on Feng Yuechan and Li Baxian, he had never seen such brilliant light.

"And that energy on him... it wasn't spiritual energy, it was boiling demonic power!"

This woman is a demon, and she's a powerful boss-level demon!

A great sense of crisis sprung from within Lu Ye's heart, his heart contracting sharply as a piercing pain shot through him from his chest. His powerful mental energy allowed him to perceive the location where the opponent was about to attack.

Please let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Almost the instant he sensed danger, Lu Ye instinctively constructed a protective spirit inscription on his chest.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

Suddenly, his vision blurred. The succubus who was still on the ground moments ago pounced forward, her hand transforming into a claw as she lunged towards his chest.

A cracking sound echoed as the sturdy Guardian Spirit Pattern was pierced by sharp claws, splitting open with fissures. Lu Ye could even feel the pain of those talons tearing through his own chest.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

If this attack isn't blocked, they'll definitely grab and rip your heart out.

A sharp, ringing clang echoed as Lu Ye drew nine shimmering lights from his waist pouch and launched them at the female demon before him.

The succubus stopped her attack, her slender form twirling gracefully. Without any apparent movement, she dodged every blow while her long legs whipped out in a sweeping arc.

The leaves of the waist-mounted sword from Mount Yanshan drew from its sheath. This blade, empowered by a double edge of sharp spiritual runes, slashed fiercely at the incoming leg whip.

This strike went wide, the opponent's reaction speed was extremely fast. They must have sensed the sharpness of this blade and changed their attack from a slash to a kick at the last moment. The speed was so fast that it was impossible to react in time.enly, Hua Ci pinched the flesh around his waist and twisted it hard.>Even until the very end, Lu Ye didn't dare to look directly into Hua Ci's eyes.He was glad that she wouldn't actually be angry or r...
