Cultivating Disciples to Breakthrough

Fwoosh!

Watching as the sect master of the Raging Flame Sect charged directly over towards him filled with killing intent, Feng Chen did not dare to be careless. Reading his sword as he met Dong He head on.

Bang!

The clash between the terrifying flames along with the sword, caused the surroundings to begin shaking violently as the rocky ground beneath them began to split apart from the aftershocks of the clash.

Zu Fei standing at the side had no choice but to retreat further back in the direction that she had come from earlier together with Feng Chen. Only capable of watching from the side, while looking for an opportunity to get close and help Feng Chen.

The flames of the Raging Flame Sect's sect master, Dong He, was simply way too powerful! Forcing Zu Fei to retreat.

"Hah… You are stronger than I expected…"

Breathing in heavily as he looked over in the direction of Feng Chen, Dong He could not help but say this with no small amount of disbelief present in his voice.

Even if Feng Chen had reached the Ninth Stage of the Nascent Soul Realm, he had  not expected for him to block his attack so easily and at the same time injure him as well!

"And you are weaker than I expected…"

Smiling a bit as he said this, Feng Chen did not wait for Dong He to attack him again and instead used his newly developed sword intent to launch an attack towards him.

Whoosh!

A violent wind swept through the underground cave as the cave walls shook violently under the pressure of the sword intent that had gathered together on Feng Chen's sword, as it slowly began to form into a giant phantom sword that soon flew over in the direction of Dong He.

"Wha-"

Not knowing what to say for a short moment as he watched the giant phantom sword approach him, Dong He soon recovered from his earlier state of disbelief as he began gathering the rich fire qi in his surroundings into a giant wall of fire that swept forward to meet the phantom sword formed by Feng Chen. Melting the volcanic tocks that made up the cave, as the surroundings began to look more and more like how it would have in the past when lava was still flowing through these caves.

BOOM!

The collision between the giant phantom sword of Feng Chen and the wall of fire made by Dong He. Forced Zu Fei away as she quickly hid inside the cave that she and Feng Chen had entered through.

The power leaking out into the surroundings from the clash began to affect the surroundings of the cave as an opening leading up to the surface was created in the place that the two had clashed with each other. Directly carved out by the power of the phantom sword and the fire wall, as both of the attacks had most of their power redirected upwards and downwards.

Most likely alerting the fire lizards above about something happening just beneath them in the process.

"Hah!"

Not slowing down in the slightest after seeing his attack being blocked, Feng Chen moved forwards at a speed that even Zu Fei found hard to follow as he swung down towards Dong He decisively. Not giving the other party a chance to recover.

Whoosh!

Dong He tried his best to block the quick sword attacks by Feng Chen by drawing in more of the surrounding fire qi to help him recover and form a natural barrier between the two of them.

Ptch!

Unfortunately, his abilities were limited, and he could not keep up with the seemingly endless wave of attacks that Feng Chen threw at him, causing some of the attacks to go through as they pierced into his body.

Within only a few seconds, his entire body had already been become a bloody mess as Dong He began to grow more and more desperate for a way out of his current situation.

The inactive eruption point!

Suddenly remembering their current location, Dong He began to form desperate and dangerous escape plan as he used most of his remaining power to force Feng Chen back for a short moment. No longer caring about killing the other party.

Getting away alive was his top priority at the moment!

Fwoosh!

Seeing Dong He suddenly conjure a giant wolf made out of flames that charged over towards him, Feng Chen retreated for a split second as he soon launched his own attack to match the giant fire wolf that Dong He had conjured forth.

Boom!

"Feng Chen! He is moving towards the inactive eruption point!"

Just as he had dealt with the giant fire wolf, Zu Fei's anxious voice could be heard calling out to him from behind as he looked over in the direction of Dong He. Only to see the other party gather his fire qi and launch a technique towards the inactive eruption point.

Rumble~

A loud rumbling could be heard as everything began shaking violently.

The fire qi of Dong He entered the inactive eruption point as all three people could sense something terrifying moving around just below the inactive eruption point.

"We have to get out of here! Now!"

Seeing the situation in front of her, Zu Fei had already made her way over to Feng Chen as she began dragging him towards the cave they had come from.

"…"

Feng Chen did not resist and just looked over in the direction of Dong He. Sending one last sword attack over towards him just as he was about to leave the eruption point.

Whoosh!

"Argh!"

Not able to put up any form of defence, Dong He let out a painful scream as he fell powerlessly to the ground. Unable to move.

By this point, things had gotten way too dangerous and there was no way they would stay behind and wait for the volcano to erupt and kill them!

Like this, Feng Chen and Zu Fei quickly left the place and hastily tried to get as far away from the now active volcano about to erupt. Leaving the dying Dong He behind at the eruption point!

…

Roar!

Roar!

Roar!

Just as Feng Chen and Zu Fei made it out of the cave they had entered through, the loud roars of fire lizards could be heard in the distance as they surrounded a large hole located in the side of the volcano.

"Looks like the cave led us quite far up the volcano…"

Muttering this to himself as he watched the fire lizards continuing to roar towards the hole on the side of the volcano, Feng Chen suddenly felt like a largescale earthquake hit the area he and Zu Fei were standing, causing both of them to momentarily lose their balance before looking up towards the hole that he and Dong He had created.

ROAR!

BOOM!

A terrifying roar echoed from beneath the hole in question as by far the largest explosion that Feng Chen and Zu Fei had ever witnessed happened.

The volcano was erupting and along with it, something hidden in the magma chamber below the volcano came up as well!
