Chapter 286: Volcanic hot spring

As he kept getting closer to the volcano, the sand on the ground gradually turned black, as if it had been roasted in a fire for countless years.
The scorching high temperature made no other plants grow here, leaving only a variety of strangely shaped charred stones and some long dead hay.
After a while, Qin Ming arrived at the foot of the volcano. He could feel the slight tremor from time to time on the ground. The source of the earthquake was this volcano.
The extremely dense fire element enveloped the surroundings, and at the same time, Qin Ming also felt a large amount of spiritual energy gushing out from the top of the volcano.
"There should be no spirits here that can survive for a long time." Qin Ming thought to himself, and began to try to climb the volcano.
The outer layer of the volcano is covered by a large amount of coke and volcanic ash, and every step on it is like stepping in a furnace.
Qin Ming had to use Reiki to protect himself when he was halfway up.
The closer to the crater above, the higher the heat, and Qin Ming crawled for an hour before reaching the top of the volcano.
A burst of heat blew on his face, causing all the hair on his body to be curled up.
Standing on the edge of the volcano, looking inward.
A large amount of magma is boiling under the volcano, and occasionally a few pieces of broken rock fall and splash a little, as if it is about to erupt at any time.
"What a rich spiritual energy, that is!" Qin Ming observed the inner wall of the volcano and found that there were many bright red pebbles inlaid on it.
These pebbles are unusual at first sight, most of them are strange treasures, but the question is how he should go down and get them.
Climbing down the inner wall of the volcano is too dangerous. The rocks on the inner wall may fall off at any time. Once it falls accidentally, it is impossible to survive.
The pebbles are distributed halfway up the volcano, a long distance from the crater.
After thinking about it, Qin Ming shook his head, feeling that the possibility of success was too low and the risk was too great.
After walking along the crater for a while, suddenly there were other discoveries.
There is even a pool on the top, not far from the crater.
The gurgling water vapor kept coming out, and in such a scorching place, it seemed strange that the pool did not show any signs of drying up.
Qin Ming released his mental power and felt it.
I found that the water in the pool was also rich in aura, the surface of the water was light milky white, and the floating volcanic ash did not pollute the water here.
Although it is not clear why this pool can exist on the volcano, it seems that the water has some magical effects.
Qin Ming would stick out the sole of his foot to touch the surface of the water, and found that the spiritual energy in the water quickly merged into the sole of his foot.
In the next moment, a scorching heat immediately poured into his body and began to vigorously act on his whole body.
Upon seeing this, his eyes lit up suddenly, and the entire sole of his foot was submerged in the water.
This heat suddenly increased a bit.
Then he dipped his feet together, the heat was still acceptable, and he soaked in the smaller half of his body.
At this time, the heat pouring into his body was more intense, and he checked that there was no abnormal movement around him, and then clenched his teeth, Qin Ming jumped into it.
The whole body was soaked and a lot of heat poured in, making Qin Ming feel a tingling sensation everywhere in his body.
Fortunately, he can barely bear it.
The pool is not deep, and Qin Ming can still leak his head when jumping into it.
The reason why he endured the scorching heat in this pool was because he found that this heat could temper his body and strengthen his bones.
I have to say that it is a good place.
The red mist surrounds the water pool, and a faint white water droplet falls into the water pool from time to time.
While soaking in the hot springs, Qin Ming also paid attention to the movement inside the volcano.
He was a little worried that the volcano would erupt at any time, but he was not confident that he could survive the baptism of magma.
This hot spring is not at ease.
After a day, Qin Ming basically adapted to the heat in the pool, and the tingling sensation on his body gradually became mild.
Three days later, the thermal tempering effect of the pool gradually faded.
By the fifth day, the effect of this heat on Qin Ming's body tempering had become small.
If compared with five days ago, you can find that the water pool has become much clearer and the milky white color has become lighter. Although the water temperature remains the same, the spiritual energy contained is much thinner.
After feeling no body tempering effect, Qin Ming crawled out of the pool, bubbling with water vapor.
Shaking the water off his body, Qin Ming felt the changes after tempering himself.
The most obvious feeling is that the blood has become particularly vigorous, and a faint fluorescence is emitted all over his body.
There is still a lot of spiritual energy remaining in the bones and flesh and blood, which will slowly dissipate over time.
The large and small wounds on his body that had not yet healed had completely recovered after being soaked for these days.
In the past five days, although the bottom of the volcano has been about to move, there is no sign of eruption.
A complete circle on the top of the volcano, except for the pool that has been useless to him, there are only the pebbles embedded in the inner wall of the volcano, and no other discovery.
Just as he was about to give up the pebbles and go down the mountain, he suddenly heard a little movement.
Looking up, I saw a few giant fiery red lizards slowly climbing up.
Name: None
Spirit: Red Burnt Monitor Lizard
Combat power rating: Tier 5 top grade
Growth potential: the fifth-tier top grade
There are a total of five red-burned monitor lizards, all of which are Tier 5 upper grade.
Beyond Qin Ming's expectation, other spirits really climbed to the top of this volcano with the scorching heat like him.
These monitor lizards looked a bit cruel, and the scarlet eyes were staring at him closely.
Obviously, their target is him.
They are both at the upper level of Tier 5, but the opponent has five. If Qin Ming had to change it, he would probably suffer only to escape.
But now the physique has been greatly tempered and strengthened, he is not without the capital of a battle.
The monitor lizard let out a high-pitched roar with a sharp and strange voice.
Qin Ming slumped down slightly, locked in his mental power, and took advantage of the five monitor lizards not to surround him, and immediately launched the offensive.
He rushed to the opponent, much faster than before, and rushed to a monitor lizard in two steps.
The big paw immediately patted it, and the monitor lizard didn't even react in time, and the body was patted over.
The sharp claws slid across the fiery red carapace and shattered one after another, and blood flowed to the ground.
The monitor lizard let out a scream, but Qin Ming didn't intend to let it go just like that. Two fore palms pressed the other's lizard head, and an aura of light was condensed by opening his mouth.
The light group continued to shine, and suddenly turned into a beam of light and blasted up. At such a close distance, the huge power directly penetrated the head of this lizard, and even the rock below it collapsed.
In less than three seconds, he killed a monitor lizard spirit of the same level.
Seeing this, the other four monitor lizards roared and bite towards Qin Ming.
