Chapter 302

The Fire Escape Technique was indeed exquisite. Zhang Xiaohua only managed to master it after a year. She had barely reached the most basic level that Venerable Fire Dragon had mentioned.

Zhang Xiaohua came to the corner of the cave again and cast a spell to remove the restriction. After the restriction disappeared, a dark hole appeared in front of Zhang Xiaohua. A desolate, distant and extremely hot fire elemental energy rushed towards her. Zhang Xiaohua could not help but take half a step back. After getting used to it, she jumped into the hole. The hole was not deep and she landed on the ground after a short while. Zhang Xiaohua immediately released her divine sense. However, it seemed that there was a restriction around her and her divine sense could not reach far.

"My divine sense can now cover the entire island. However, it can't go further than a few feet. Why did Elder Huo set up such a restriction?"

As she thought, Zhang Xiaohua took out the Luminous Pearl. Under the dim light and her divine sense, she slowly walked forward.

This was a slope that led downwards. Although it was rugged, there were no forks and she was not afraid of getting lost. During this period, Zhang Xiaohua had thought of using the Earth Escape Technique. However, the restriction around her had restricted her from using the Earth Escape Technique. Without any other choice, Zhang Xiaohua could only stagger down slowly.

After a long time, she still could not see the bottom. Zhang Xiaohua could not help but be shocked. Wasn't she already at the bottom of the sea?

After cultivating for so long, Zhang Xiaohua's temperament had already become firm. She was no longer jumping around and could only walk down patiently. She did not want to retreat.

After a long time, the air was scorching hot. Zhang Xiaohua's body that was immune to cold and heat was also getting impatient. At this moment, Zhang Xiaohua finally understood why Venerable Fire Dragon had to cultivate the Fire Escape Technique to a certain level before coming down. Zhang Xiaohua formed a spell with her right hand and a stream of Qi flowed down from top to bottom. A thin layer of light red Qi covered her entire body. Wasn't this the most basic spell of the Fire Escape Technique?

If he couldn't even grasp this, he wouldn't even be able to see the Fire of the Earth Lung.

After walking for a while, she saw a red light flickering in front of her. Zhang Xiaohua was relieved that she had arrived at the destination. Sure enough, after turning a corner, she saw a sea of fire twice the size of the small lake on the deserted island!

Well, it would be more appropriate to call it the Fire Lake.

The entire 'lake' was dark red in color and was bubbling. Above the 'lake', there was a raging fire that was several feet tall. The fire was roaring and seemed to be burning for a long time.

Zhang Xiaohua knew in her heart that this was the place where Venerable Fire-dragon cultivated his Fire Escape Technique.

Looking around, they were surrounded by rocks that were illuminated by the dark red light. Looking up, there was a space that was dozens of feet high. Above and all around were rocks, and under the illumination of the fire, it actually emitted a resplendent light!

Zhang Xiaohua's eyes lit up, and his heart thumped. He released his divine sense with a "whoosh". Sure enough, the resplendent lights were actually Night Luminescent Pearls!

"No wonder Old Fire-dragon's cave was decorated with Luminous Pearl. So this is where the treasure came from!

There are so many Luminous Pearls. Aiyo, I'm rich! "

"But, how do I collect this Luminous Pearl?

Even if I use a small sword to pry it open, I won't be able to catch it. It's extremely easy for me to fall into this sea of fire. Hmm, I better hurry up and cultivate my Fire Escape Technique. For the sake of this Luminous Pearl, I will definitely learn it! "

After thinking about it, Zhang Xiaohua did not want to waste any more time. She kept the Luminous Pearl in her hands and made a gesture with her right hand. Pointing towards the sea of fire, a wisp of flame flew over and wrapped around the light film on her body. Zhang Xiaohua's gesture changed again and her body slowly melted like a candle. Following which, she merged with the wisp of flame. The flame immediately returned to the sea of fire and Zhang Xiaohua disappeared.

But suddenly, a burst of black smoke rose and Zhang Xiaohua was shot out from another part of the flame. Half of her long hair was already burnt.

Zhang Xiaohua helplessly touched her hair and consoled herself, "Since my hair is already long, I will have to use a small sword to cut it off. Let's just treat it as cutting it off now."

Then, she sat cross-legged and closed her eyes to think about her gains and losses.

A moment later, a smile crept onto his lips. He formed another hand seal, and his figure disappeared into the flames once more.

Just like this, Zhang Xiaohua came out and went back in. She cultivated till night time before returning to the cave. As she pondered over her cultivation experience, she cultivated the Worry-Free Heart Sutra. The next morning, after she finished her routine cultivation, she went underground again to cultivate the Fire Escape Technique.

It was still the same old saying, cultivation knows no time. After another half a year, Zhang Xiaohua had basically learned the Fire Escape Technique according to Venerable Fire-dragon's instructions.

However, Zhang Xiaohua did not discover the secret that Venerable Fire-dragon had guessed.

On this day, Zhang Xiaohua was sure that she had completed her cultivation of the Fire Escape Technique and could appear anywhere in the flames. Only then did she release her flying sword and began her plan to make a fortune. She skillfully used her small sword to pry up a Luminous Pearl. When the Luminous Pearl fell, she estimated its landing point and used the Fire Escape Technique to catch it. As she was not familiar with the first two Luminous Pearls, she did not catch them properly and fell into the sea of flames. This made Zhang Xiaohua's heart ache for a long time. She did not make any mistakes after that. That Fire Escape Technique, under such intensive training, was much faster than the previous few days. Before the Luminous Pearl was completely pried off, Zhang Xiaohua's Fire Escape Technique had reached a new level. She could appear at any precise location and her speed had also increased by a lot.

Of course, if she was a little slower, the Luminous Pearl would have fallen into the sea of flames. That was a huge sum of silver.

Zhang Xiaohua continued to pry up the Luminous Pearl and was very excited as she scuttled around in the flames. She was not careful and fell straight into the sea of flames. Zhang Xiaohua was shocked and immediately used the levitation technique to float towards the shore. When she landed on the ground, she heaved a sigh of relief.

The flames in the sea of flames were formed by the red lava in the sea. How would she dare to provoke it?

However, he immediately thought that the red lava was definitely not water. It should be rocks that were smelted at high temperatures. When he thought of the lava, he suddenly realized that although the lava could flow, it was still rocks. Since it was rocks, then the Earth Escape Technique should be able to be used. The reason why the lava was in the form of lava was because there was a high temperature fire in it.

"Since there are rocks and fire in the lava, then if I use both the Earth Escape Technique and the Fire Escape Technique at the same time, will I be able to enter the lava?"

"Is this the secret that Venerable Fiery Dragon was talking about?

He did not cultivate the Earth Escape Technique and only cultivated the Five Elements Escape Technique and the Fire Escape Technique. I think he would not be able to enter the lava, which is why his jade letter did not mention the lava. But, do I have to take the risk? "

"Sigh, forget it. Let's get the Night-Luminescent Pearls first."

Zhang Xiaohua calmed herself down and carefully kept the rest of the Luminous Pearl into her money bag.

Then, she happily returned to the cave.

On the second day, she returned to the underground. Zhang Xiaohua had already made up her mind. Actually, no matter if it was an Immortal Cultivator or a Martial Cultivator, they would not give up on the opportunity to increase their strength. They would also be willing to take the risk to increase their strength. Zhang Xiaohua was also the same.

Although the lava was dangerous, it was obvious that the lava was a mixture of rocks and fire. Theoretically, as long as she combined the Earth Escape Technique and the Fire Escape Technique, she should be able to pass through the terrifying lava.

Of course, although the lava was also a substance of the Five Elements, it was not something that could be subdued by the Five Elements Escape Technique which was a "jack-of-all-trades".

Furthermore, as her cultivation deepened, Zhang Xiaohua gradually understood that the path of Immortal Cultivator was a path of challenge. Challenging oneself, challenging the Heavens and Earth. The combination of the Earth Escape Technique and the Fire Escape Technique was an extension of the two techniques. More importantly, it was a challenge to oneself. It was a challenge to one's courage, cultivation and state. If she did not accept the challenge, it would leave a knot in her heart and it would be unfavorable for her future cultivation.

Hence, after thinking for a long time, she finally came back.

Sitting cross-legged in front of the sea of fire, Zhang Xiaohua pondered for a long time.

"What I need to do now is to combine the Earth Escape Technique and the Fire Escape Technique. But how should I combine them?

Should I use both my left and right hands at the same time?

My left hand has never practiced any techniques, so I don't think I can succeed in a short time.

Hmm, how about I use the Earth Escape Technique first and escape into the earth below me, then immediately use the Fire Escape Technique to enter the lava. Or I can use the Fire Escape Technique to enter the flames first, then use the Earth Escape Technique to enter the lava.

Hmm, there must be lava in the earth below me. I don't want to accidentally fall into it. Let's use the Fire Escape Technique first, then enter the lava from the fire. "

After making up her mind, Zhang Xiaohua gritted her teeth, made a hand seal, and flashed into the flames. She stayed in the flames for a while, then made another hand seal for the Earth Escape Technique. Her figure immediately disappeared from the flames and when she reappeared, she was in the dark red lava.

In the lava, Zhang Xiaohua looked worriedly at the black and red light membranes around her body. When she was sure that there was no problem, she tried to use the Earth Escape Technique and the Fire Escape Technique respectively. She found that these two techniques could be used in the lava. Zhang Xiaohua was overjoyed. She used the Earth Escape Technique to swim in the lava. The two layers of light membranes excluded the dark red and extremely hot lava, so she was not hurt at all.

However, in this lava, Zhang Xiaohua's divine sense was suppressed. She could not use her divine sense like she could in the flames or the earth. She could only extend her divine sense a few feet away. But even so, these few feet were extremely useful. She had already found traces of the Luminous Pearl on the stone wall beside the lava.

It was even easier to pick the Luminous Pearl in the Earth Escape Technique. As long as her divine sense locked onto it, she could use the Earth Escape Technique and reach out her hand to pick it up. It was even more convenient than using a small sword.

Therefore, Zhang Xiaohua forgot about the danger and greedily picked the Luminous Pearl, all the way into the depths of the lava!
