Chapter 656: Volcano Cluster

“But looking at the garden’s map, we would need quite some time, at least ten days, to go to the next entrance, and we can’t even be certain that it’ll be the treasure chamber.” Gao Peng gestured across the map. “It’s too far. We’ve already wasted three days, and it would be another ten days wasted if we were to go. We would have wasted half of the time we have, and if it turns out it isn’t the treasure chamber, we would need to go to another entrance again... We’d be wasting time for nothing.”

Gao Peng felt helpless. No wonder no one from the tribes had explored the divine border in depth. In the beginning, he had thought that the tribesmen didn’t know that this was a divine border, but now it seemed like they had known for a long time.

However, it was no use even if they knew, because they didn’t have much time to explore. Within the limited timeframe, they could only gather experience slowly and continue to explore more of the divine border under the condition that they could guarantee their gains.

Moreover, due to the limitation at the divine border that restricted the presence of any being that surpassed the Holy grade, it became more difficult for them to further their exploration. Gao Peng had to consider whether there was any treasure left in the treasure chamber, as well.

Various signs indicated that the master of these ruins, the god, had already fallen. Thus, it was highly likely that its treasures would have already been taken by its enemies. These were all factors that Gao Peng had to take into account.

“What do you need to consider? Why do you need to contemplate all the time? Why are you such a coward?! Da Zi must have learned this from you! You have me, a god, leading you! I can’t believe you’re still afraid you won’t gain something!” Fatty Big Sea complained, unsatisfied.

“Bullsh*t, I’m no coward.” Da Zi interrupted at the right moment to demonstrate that it was courageous and that said courage was totally unrelated to Gao Peng.

“Come with me. I’ll show you all the shortcut,” Fatty Big Sea said.

No matter how much Gao Peng asked, Fatty Big Sea would merely keep a mysterious front.

They headed toward the east and met some monster trainers from other tribes along the way. Upon seeing Gao Peng, all of them tried to avoid him like the plague, as if Gao Peng was a terrifying monster, while Gao Peng greeted them happily.

Three days later, Fatty Big Sea brought Gao Peng to the edge of the divine border. In front of them was an extremely high crystal wall that took up the whole view. “This is indeed a divine border,” Fatty Big Sea said with certainty after seeing the crystal wall.

Fatty BIg Sea opened its mouth, and its retainers flew out from its mouth. A disc-shaped black hole appeared over the Sea King Devouring Teeth. The black hole slowly approached the edge of the divine border, and the crystal wall, which was indestructible in the eyes of the tribesmen, was devoured immediately after coming into contact with the black hole. The hole engulfed the wall like a diamond penetrating tofu, turning the wall into fine dust effortlessly.

Ten minutes later, a small black hole appeared on the surface of the crystal wall and Fatty Big Sea hurried Gao Peng urgently, “Quickly, pass through it.”

Gao Peng looked at this doghole-like thing that was half a yard in diameter and was pulled deep into his thoughts.

“Put me into your Familiar Space and summon me again after you’ve passed through,” said Fatty Big Sea confidently.

Gao Peng nodded silently and waved his hand, retrieving Da Zi and merging with Fatty Big Sea. Fatty Big Sea quivered, its big carp face showing terror. “Gao Peng, you’re so shameless.” Gao Peng stayed silent as he controlled Fatty Big Sea’s body to shrink and slipped into the hole like a ghost. After five minutes, he suddenly saw light in front of him.

A wave of heat blew against his face, the boiling hot lava flowing slowly in the river unchanging and eternal. The view in front of him was entirely colored red, orange, scarlet, golden red, purplish red... Waves of heat rolled by, and even the air became distorted under such horrifyingly high temperatures.

Fatty Big Sea quickly manipulated the Sea King Devouring Teeth to form a small black hole that devoured all of the heat energy. “I don’t think this is the treasure chamber...” Gao Peng was very doubtful, as no one in their right mind would build a treasure chamber like this.

“The structure of the divine border is kind of like a beehive. I can bring you directly through the walls of different ‘rooms’ without passing through the door,” said Fatty Big Sea proudly.

“Did you do this often in the past?” Gao Peng finally asked the question that he had kept to himself for the longest time.

“Do what?” Fatty Big Sea paused in confusion.

Gao Peng said politely, “Look for treasure to steal.”

Fatty Big Sea’s small, yellow, bean-like eyes blinked. “F*ck off!”

The area was full of volcano clusters. Small clusters grew on the outside, forming a dense space that surrounded an extremely tall volcano in the middle. The size of the volcano was massive, with dark blackish-red clouds shooting into the sky and ash that blotted out the sunlight and the sky. Upon witnessing the scene, Gao Peng suddenly found himself reminded of one of his familiars.

Gao Peng climbed up the volcano with Fatty Big Sea and looked down into the mouth of the volcano. The golden-red lava in the volcano was like a pot of boiling water where huge air bubbles burst from time to time as it emitted green smoke. The air was filled with the smell of sulfur.

“Eh?” Gao Peng noticed that there were numerous floating golden beads within the lava of the volcano that were floating in dense clusters.

[Item Name]: Earthfire Melting Crystal

[Item Description]: Can be used to forge objects and has an obvious strengthening effect on monsters with both Earth and Fire attributes.

Doesn’t Stripey have Earth and Fire attributes? A thought came into Gao Peng’s mind. He summoned Stripey, and with a thud, Stripey fell onto the ground, causing the earth to shake.

“You finally thought of me, Gao Peng,” Stripey said innocently. It rubbed itself against Gao Peng happily, after which the hills tottered, the earth quaked, and the ground was upturned, throwing everything into total chaos.

Cough, cough, cough...

Gao Peng crawled out of the debris coughing. “All right, all right, Stripey, stop cuddling me,” Gao Peng said to Stripey. “See whether you can absorb the golden beads in this volcano.”

Stripey sniffed earnestly, and as it looked at the boiling lava, its stomach gurgled. “This smells kind of nice.” With a leap, Stripey had jumped into the mouth of the volcano. As the heavyweight contestant took a free fall, the lava surged up at least a hundred feet high. Looking at Stripey as it behaved like a mischievous kid, Gao Peng smiled uncontrollably in satisfaction.

“This is the Earthfire Melting Crystal... This is for...” Fatty Big Sea slapped its fat head suddenly. “There’s something in the volcano.”

The lava in the volcano under their feet surged violently. A massive hand condensed from lava suddenly stretched out from the edge of the volcano, then Stripey shook its bottom. With a squish, the massive hand broke apart softly.

“Gao Peng, I think I sat on something. It’s so uncomfortable,” said Stripey shyly.

“Roar!”

“Roar!”

The surrounding volcanoes around them began roaring fiercely, one after another. These were sincere shouts made by followers to show their loyalty to their boss who had been injured.

Fatty Big Sea scoffed in indifference as it took out the Endless Incarnation Labyrinth and threw it onto the ground. Rumble! Rumble!

Massive walls formed from huge rocks and lava emerged from the ground, creating an enormous labyrinth. The powerful aura released by the divine artifact silenced the followers’ roars immediately. The only thing that was left was the massive hand that reached out from the surface of the lava, flailing in the air, trying to grab anything.
