Zong Shen stood at the edge of the Boiling Lava Lake.
Ahead lay the so-called [Boiling Lava Lake].
It was a boundless expanse of dark-red surface, where scorching, viscous magma flowed sluggishly.
Whenever those enormous lava bubbles burst, they let out dull booms and sent waves of molten rock several meters high splashing upward.
The temperature here was so high that even the air before his eyes seemed faintly distorted.
Beneath his feet was a black basalt platform formed after cooling.
At the edges of the platform where it came into contact with the lava, constant sizzling sounds rang out, sending plumes of white smoke into the air.
Judging by the guidance of [Purifying Flame Protection] and the approximate location of the second altar, it should be deep within the lava lake.
He glanced at the dungeon's built-in minimap. After destroying the first altar and exploring along the way, vast sections of fog on the map had dispersed.
At this point, the terrain of the entire lava lake region had roughly come into view.
The lake's surface was far from flat; numerous islands of varying sizes were scattered across it.
They were all footholds formed from cooled black rock.
Slightly west of the lake's center, a dark-red skull marker flashed continuously, labeled [Flame Demon Altar].
Unlike the first small node, this altar's marker was a deeper shade of red, with several smaller red dots surrounding it. Clearly, it was guarded by a more powerful cluster of monsters.
Zong Shen glanced at his current points.
1776460 points.
He still remembered the rules from when he had first entered the dungeon.
Points could be earned through various means.
For example, by killing demonic creatures, activating ancient sealing steles, gathering specific resources, completing random purification quests, and so on.
