Chapter 670
Big Yellow stopped immediately after he heard the warning and gave a praising glance to the disciple who did it . He would have jumped over the river if he wasn’t reminded by him .
There were many cultivators standing beside the river bank, each of their faces were filled with concern . The magma river before them had sent chills down their spines . No one knew how powerful the magma was but they had just seen a Second Grade Combat Emperor who wanted to fly past the river being engulfed and incinerated into nothing .
Even a Second Grade Combat Emperor couldn’t endure the attack of the magma . Who would dare to make another attempt now?
Jiang Chen and Han Yan moved a few steps forward, standing nearer to the magma . Their faces revealed slight shock while the heat wave coming from the magma touched their skin .
“Indeed, a very strong magma . There is some kind of violent Qi hidden in it . Not only does the heat the magma can attack, but it also carries some sort of hot poison . Even my devil aura can’t bear it . ”
Han Yan said .
“Let me test the strength of this magma . ”
Jiang Chen said and drew a weapon from his Qi Sea . It was an Emperor Weapon . Jiang Chen circulated his Yuan Force to instill it into the weapon, which caused it to create an intense buzzing noise . After that, Jiang Chen hurled it forcefully towards the other side of the magma river .
Jiang Chen had exerted a lot of strength when throwing the weapon so it travelled very quickly . From one side to the other side of the river wasn’t very far, thus the weapon was travelling in that direction like a flash .
*Bang*
At this time, a dragon-like magma rushed out of the river . Its speed was even faster than the weapon and its strength was great . When the weapon reached the center of the magma river, it was attacked directly by the dragon-like magma .
It then reeled around the weapon and pulled it into the magma river . A splash was heard . The weapon was drowned by the rapidly rolling magma and no trace of it was found .
Everyone’s face changed, even Jiang Chen’s . He used quite a large amount of strength to hurl the weapon . The speed of the weapon was undeniably fast, but it still couldn’t get past the magma river .
“Truly terrifying . We have no ways of going through it . ”
“Yeah, this magma river has blocked our path ahead . We can’t even use our dimensional skill to cross it . ”
“The one that Jiang Chen used was an Emperor Weapon . It travelled at such a great speed but still couldn’t pass through it, which meant that the magma river initiates an attack on any trespassers by itself . ”
“This is scary, are we going to be trapped here? This area is becoming more crowded with people . There is a much bigger area across the river…”
…… . .
Everyone’s face was full of fright . As long as they could pass the magma river, they would enter another spatial zone and would continue in search of treasure . Actually, there wasn’t any treasure in this spatial zone . Instead, there was unexpectedly many dangers . Now, they were blocked by a ghastly magma river . If they couldn’t pass through it, they would be trapped here .
“Little Chen, use your Heavenly Thunder Flame to protect yourself so you may be able to get across this magma river . Why not use your flame to shield us so that we can go there together?”
Tyrant suggested .
“I can’t . I can try that alone but not with you all . I don’t understand much about this magma and have no clue about how strong its attack is . The magma river isn’t as simple as a high temperature lava . If you try to get across it with force, it will be extremely risky . ”
Jiang Chen shook his head in disapproval . He didn’t like to do things that he wasn’t certain of . He had no idea about how strong the power of the lava was . If something unexpected were to happen, the consequences would be serious .
“Everyone look! There is a monument over there . Is this magma river related to it?”
Someone pointed to a monument from afar . It was a blood red stone monument as tall as a human . In fact, many had noticed this thing from the beginning, but they were all distracted by the heat of the magma river and had forgotten about it .
Now, they all shifted their attention back to the monument when their hope of crossing the magma river had faded .
“Little Chen, look at the monument . ”
Han Yan was looking at the monument while all of them walked towards it, standing in a circle, surrounding it . Jiang Chen and his friends also walked over to study about the monument .
It was a blood red monument, the surface were covered with variegated marks, full of bumps and hollows . Nobody had any idea how long this human-sized monument had been here but they could feel its ancient Qi .
There wasn’t anything crafted on the monument, so they didn’t know what to call this thing .
“Big Yellow, what do you think?”
Jiang Chen looked at Big Yellow because he could see through what it was .
“This thing is a treasure . ”
Big Yellow’s eyes sparkled and fixed his gaze on the monument .
“This monument seems very ordinary, there’s nothing special about it, except for the color, which makes it a little scary . ”
Zuo Ling Er didn’t seem to understand .
“Ling Er, this monument isn’t normal . Try to imagine that the temperature in this place is scorching hot because it is very near to the magma . Even Combat Emperors need to use their Yuan Force to defend themselves against the heat wave . If it is an ordinary rock, it will be burnt by the heat and turn into ashes . This monument has been in this place for an unknown number of years and has always been under such high temperature but it’s still perfectly fine . That’s why it’s extraordinary . ”
Jiang Chen said .
“That’s right, this monument is a fine thing . ”
Big Yellow nodded . Although he didn’t know what this monument was, his innate sense for treasure told him that this wasn’t an ordinary monument . Like what Jiang Chen had said, a normal monument would be incinerated into powder if it's exposed in this kind of environment for a long time . Thus, it was a miracle for this monument to be still existing in its full form .
“Everyone look, this monument must have some relation with this magma river . If we removed this monument from the ground, we may be able to cross the river . ”
A person said .
“Let me try, this monument is a fine thing . If I can remove it from the ground, it will be mine . ”
A man as strong as a bear came before the monument . Both of his arms grabbed the monument and pulled it hard .
However, it didn’t even move a tiny bit!
Everyone's faces changed . A Second Grade Combat Emperor, even without using his Yuan Force had the physical strength that could lift an entire mountain, but he couldn’t even make the monument move .
“My mother! How can this monument be this heavy? I can’t believe that I can’t even lift a monument with my Second Grade Combat Emperor’s strength . ”
That strong man was enraged . He immediately circulated his Yuan Force in his body . His body was now full of glimmering energy from top to bottom . The energy flowed from his body to both of his arms, then he tried to pull the monument one more time .
However, the result was the same, the monument remained standing like an immovable divine iron .
*Argh*
The strong man bellowed and poured all of his might into lifting the thing, but nothing happened . Eventually, he fell to the ground with a ‘puff’ sound . The monument was able to drain all of the energy of a Second Grade Combat Emperor until he was so tired he lied on the ground . It was truly terrifying .
“A very heavy monument . ”
Han Yan and Sot Old Man also changed their facial expression, many others did the same . Now, even an idiot would know that this monument was extraordinary .
“Garbage, get out of the way! Let master dog try it . ”
Big Yellow wagged his sturdy tail and swaggered to the monument . He used his hind legs for support, his front feet gripped the monument and he started pulling .
“Dammit! Why is this thing so heavy?”
Big Yellow couldn’t help but curse . This time, even Jiang Chen’s face turned solemn . The Second Grade Combat Emperor couldn’t lift the monument was probably because it was too heavy or divine, but Big Yellow was a peerless beast at the peak of Third Grade Demon Emperor, his physical strength was beyond anyone’s imagination . Was this monument really so heavy?
“Master dog don’t believe it . ”
Big Yellow threw himself onto it . There was a surge of demon aura in his body and he exerted all of his energy to move it, but he still couldn’t .
In the end, Big Yellow was infuriated . He used his solid head to knock the monument . Since he couldn’t remove it, he might as well destroy it .
*Bang*
Unfortunately, when Big Yellow’s head knocked on the monument, even though a spark was created it still didn’t move and not even a scratch was left on it .
“Your mother!”
Big Yellow swore loudly, this was the most terrible blow he had ever faced .
“How could this happen? What is this monument? Why is it that is so hard and heavy?”
“This is the end, if not even this dog can lift the monument . There is probably no one else that can do it . ”
Everyone was looking at one another with slight despair, while some looked at Jiang Chen, hoping that perhaps Jiang Chen could remove it .
“Little Chen, go and try . ”
Han Yan said .
“En . ”
Jiang Chen nodded, his eyes were still as solemn as before . Big Yellow’s failure to lift the monument didn’t give him any confidence to do any better .
Jiang Chen approached the monument . He extended his arms and wrapped it around the monument . He casted his Dragon Transformation Art, blood red dragon marks started to appear from his body, fully enveloping the monument .
*Argh*
Jiang Chen shouted and circulated all of his strength and exerted it on the monument .
However, the monument still didn’t move a tiny bit even when Jiang Chen had used his Dragon Transformation Art on it .
“Even big brother can’t move it . ”
Zuo Ling Er’s was sighing .
Jiang Chen shook his head . “This monument is a rare thing . A thing like this can only be lifted by the destined person . ”
“Let me try . ”
This time, Tyrant initiated . He was a person who knew his own limits . Even Jiang Chen couldn’t move the monument, so why would he want to try? He must have known or felt something about this monument .
