"How are we going to get across?"
The fat man looked at the lava lake in front of him and said with a look of despair.
Wu Tianzhen frowned, carefully observing her surroundings, trying to find a safe path.
"Don't panic, everyone. Let's look along the edge of the lake and see if there's a narrow rocky path we can take."
Wu Tianzhen said.
The group carefully made their way along the edge of the lava lake. The rocks under their feet were scorching hot, and with each step, they could feel the soles of their shoes being baked until they softened.
The air was thick with the acrid smell of sulfur, making it difficult to breathe. They had to be constantly careful to avoid being hit by spewing lava.
Suddenly, an elemental creature made of lava and rock leaped out of the magma and pounced on them.
This elemental creature was enormous, engulfed in raging flames, turning the ground red-hot wherever it went.
It waved its enormous arms, creating a wave of heat that kept people at bay.
"careful!"
Zhang Qilin shouted and charged forward, wielding the Black Gold Ancient Blade.
He moved nimbly, weaving through the elemental creature's attacks, trying to find its weakness.
However, the elemental creature's shell was incredibly hard; when the Black Gold Ancient Blade struck it, it only produced a string of sparks but could not cause any real damage.
The group was locked in a fierce battle with the elemental creature. Although Zhang Qilin and Zhang Hao managed to temporarily withstand its attacks thanks to their powerful strength, the others were exhausted by the intense heat.
Under the scorching heat, everyone's sweat evaporated quickly, and water resources were consumed rapidly.
Everyone felt parched, their throats felt like they were on fire, and their bodies gradually became weak and sluggish, with the risk of dehydration and fainting at any moment.
"I can't take it anymore, I can't hold on much longer, water... I need to drink water."
The fat man said weakly, his lips were chapped and his skin was dry and peeling.
Wu Tianzhen looked at her nearly empty water pouch and felt extremely anxious.
"Hang in there, everyone. We'll find a safe place to rest as soon as possible."
Wu Tianzhen encouraged everyone.
Just when everyone was about to give up, Zhang Hao suddenly came up with a solution.
He concentrated and cast a spell, creating a brief, cool shield around everyone, temporarily alleviating the intense heat.
"Everyone, hurry up and move forward, my shield won't last long."
Zhang Hao shouted.
Protected by Zhang Hao's shield, the group quickened their pace.
They trudged along the narrow, rocky path, each step arduous.
Just as the shield was about to disappear, they finally saw the exit from the lava area.
With all their might, they broke free and escaped this terrifying lava hell.
Everyone collapsed to the ground, panting heavily, feeling the joy of surviving a disaster.
After going through countless hardships, the group finally crossed the scorching lava field, thinking that the danger was temporarily over. However, the scene before them made their hearts sink to the bottom once again.
An incredible, frigid world appeared before them, surrounded by eternal ice that had never melted, as if time itself had frozen there.
As soon as they stepped into this world, a bone-chilling cold swept over them, and everyone felt as if countless needles were pricking their skin, with every pore trembling.
“This is too cold!”
The fat man couldn't help but shudder, his teeth chattering.
Their breath instantly turned into white icy mist, which lingered in the air.
An invisible, icy energy was constantly eroding their body temperature and will, causing their movements to become stiff and sluggish, each step feeling like dragging a thousand-pound shackle.
My thoughts seemed to freeze, my brain became drowsy, and my reactions became sluggish.
Wu Tianzhen felt her body getting heavier and heavier, and her consciousness gradually blurred. A thought of giving up began to grow in her heart.
