LDP S3: The Jewel of the Underworld

Ch. 72 — Eternal Volcano.

In Heilong's current hands were two pieces of storage rings, one belonging to Liu Gong and another belonging to Xu Meng Zi.

As for Zhang Wei's storage ring, Heilong did not take the storage ring from Zhang Wei as he had intended to make Zhang Wei his subordinate. So, it felt inappropriate if he also had to rob her.

Heilong did not find anything special inside Xu Meng Zi's storage ring at all. It contained only the usual supplies carried by a woman and some medicinal pills that seemed like healing pills, it was also a low quality pill that had absolutely no value.

“Did this woman come to the Heaven of Darkness World just for fun? Or maybe this woman has hidden her real storage ring somewhere.”

A little annoyed, Heilong threw away Xu Meng Zi's storage ring because there was not a single object inside the storage ring that he could use.

He then went on to check Liu Gong's storage ring.

Different from the contents of Xu Meng Zi's storage ring, Liu Gong's storage ring contained quite a lot of valuable items.

Inside Liu Gong's storage ring, Heilong found countless medicinal herbs and there was also a furnace to concoct a pill that seemed to be of very high quality.

“The Demon King of the Liu Clan should have been an alchemy master. But why did Liu Gong have such a strong enough combat power?”

Normally, an alchemist did not possess too high a fighting strength as it was very contrary to their Dao goal of healing someone. Thus, the martial ability of an alchemist was usually only limited to protecting oneself.

From Liu Gong's storage ring as well as his interactions with Fu Rong and the Zhao Clan, Heilong was finally able to deduce about the special abilities possessed by some Demon Lords.

Demon King Fu was an expert in Space Dao, Demon King Zhao was an expert in formation arrays, Demon King Zhang was an expert in war formations and Demon King Liu was an expert in pill making.

Only three of the seven Demon Lords whose abilities were still mysterious in Heilong's mind were Demon Dao King, Demon King Gao and Demon King Xu.

He had indeed defeated the elite disciples of the Demon Clan who were under the auspices of Demon King Xu and snatched his storage ring. However, all the objects present in Xu Meng Zi's storage ring were simply unable to give any picture of the special abilities that Demon King Xu possessed.

Heilong then went on to inspect the items he had removed from Liu Gong's storage ring and finally found a scroll that seemed to be very ancient. Because, the scroll was not made of paper but monster skin that should have been quite rare.

He took the scroll and read it. Fortunately the language used in the letter scroll was not very complicated and seemed to have been translated by someone.

Inside the scroll was also a map that seemed to show a certain location as well as some clues related to the place.

“It turns out this Dark Heaven World holds a very special object. I have to get that thing first before those elite disciples of the Demon Clan take it first.”

Heilong then went in a certain direction according to the direction that the map was pointing at.

The Eternal Fire Mountain.

The immortal volcano was the only volcano in the Dark Heaven World. And, around that mountain was the dragon flame vein which was the source of the fire Qi in this Little World.

Ever since entering the Heaven's Path Darkness World, the Gao Clan had directly taken over the territory of the immortal volcano to a radius of a hundred kilometers from this mountain.

Of course they desperately wanted the dragon flame vein that was beneath this mountain. However, such a thing was too impossible to do because if the dragon flame pulse was to be lost, it was, then the stability of the Qi that exists in this Dark Heaven World will be instantly damaged and will cause disaster for anyone who is in this small world.

Thus, they all merely utilized the flames coming out from the dragon flame vein to deepen their expertise in forging artifacts.

Surely they all had to enter the natural Goa-Goa that was around the Eternal Fire Mountain to benefit from that dragon flame vein.

“Senior Gao Xifeng, these are the ingredients you need. All of us could only obtain this thing in a very limited amount because almost all of the mining areas that existed within the Heaven's Path Darkness World had been taken over by the Dao Clan.”

Some of the Gao Clan disciples brought some kind of mine and minerals needed to forge a weapon and gave all those materials to Gao Xifeng who was an elite disciple of the Gao Clan.

“Klan Gao again! They were all indeed never satisfied with what they had and had always taken the territory of another Clan. Let them be as long as they do not disturb the territory of this eternal volcano. However, if they dare to touch the tip of the dragon fire pulse that is in this place then we all have to fight it out with the Dao Clan.”

Gao Xifeng seemed to have long harbored hatred for the Dao Clan. However, he could not attack them for no apparent reason. Moreover, the Dao Clan had never intruded on their territory directly.

“Just put all that material there and then leave me alone.” Gao Xifeng pointed towards a storage rack on the left side of Goa.

The Gao Clan disciples instantly obeyed Gao Xifeng's orders and immediately compiled all the materials they brought into the shelves according to the name printed on each shelf.

After everything was done, they all left this place quietly as they knew that Gao Xifeng was currently in a critical period in the process of forging weapons.

The sound of hammer blows and flames continued to hum with a certain rhythm from where Gao Xifeng was.

As time went on, the artifact that Gao Xifeng was tempering began to show its shape.

“Live a little more then I will finish forging this spear. If I succeed, then this specially crafted spear within the Dark Heaven Realm will definitely sell for a very high price.”

Gao Xifeng had imagined just how many gold coins he would receive if the spear he had made was currently sold in an auction because that alone could motivate him to continue forging an artifact.

On the other hand, Heilong who kept running following the direction that the map was aiming at finally reached the Eternal Fire Mountain region.

However, he was forced to stop because he was blocked by members of the Gao Clan.

“Do you not know at all if the area around this volcano has become the territory of the Gao Clan. If you still keep trying to go deeper, it means that you have challenged the Gao.” Clan

The disciples guarding the border region brandished the weapons in their hands towards Heilong.

“Since when did this volcano become a territory of the Gao Clan? Is there a Gao Clan nameplate on this mountain?” reply Heilong who kept trying to barge in.
