Although Ye Zhen had made ample preparations before plunging into the magma vortex, when he truly rushed into it, the terrifying heat blasting into his face still made him wonder for an instant whether he would be reduced to ashes.
The thought vanished as soon as it appeared.
Almost instantly, the Body Protection Spiritual Armor over Ye Zhen's body shattered. The Bone-Adhering Poison Flame Bead, which he had only recently refined, spewed out sheets of green flame that wrapped him tightly, protecting him from the incredibly scorching magma.
Yet the heat rushing at him still threatened to turn Ye Zhen to ash in an instant.
Even the Dragon Scale Pseudo-Body covering his skin, each scale dense with profound patterns, could not shut out that dreadful heat.
The flame shield formed by the Bone-Adhering Poison Flame Bead rapidly melted away in the river of magma. At virtually the same instant, the Acquired Spirit Treasure Lightning Whip flashed, and dazzling thunderlight laid another Thunderlight Barrier around Ye Zhen's body.
Ye Zhen could only use every means at his disposal to buy time. Once he reached the magma passage recorded in the Imprint Jade Slip, the pressure on him would lessen greatly.
Ye Zhen believed that since Wang Baimu had dared to enter this magma vortex, that magma passage could not be far away.
The instant he entered the magma vortex, Ye Zhen immediately entered a state of Clear Heart Sword Intent. His Spiritual Sense attached itself to the omnipresent Fire Spirit Energy and sped outward into the distance.
Driven by Ye Zhen's primordial spirit, his Spiritual Sense moved incredibly fast, extending nearly fifty li along the direction of the magma vortex in an instant.
But what he saw left Ye Zhen stunned.
Following the magma vortex downward, there was no magma passage
