"Each Demon Flame Locust Tree isn't particularly formidable, but once it forms a forest, even spirit beasts far stronger than it won't dare to provoke it."
On the way to the Demon Flame Sophora japonica forest, Zhan Kaishan introduced the situation of the Demon Flame Sophora japonica to Xiao Mu.
"The roots of the Demon Flame Sophora trees are entangled with each other, and their soul power will be intertwined. If you attack one Demon Flame Sophora tree, the entire Demon Flame Sophora forest will regard you as your enemy."
When Xiao Mu and Zhan Kaishan were still a few hundred meters away from the Demonic Flame Sophora Forest, the flames above the entire Demonic Flame Sophora Forest suddenly became much more intense and shot straight into the sky.
"This is the Demonic Flame Acacia warning us not to get too close."
"Oh? The Demon Flame Acacia's intelligence is quite high."
Generally speaking, the intelligence of plant soul beasts is often much lower than that of animal soul beasts of the same level. This is determined by their innate conditions.
But these Demon Flame Sophora trees are somewhat contrary to common sense. Perhaps after the Demon Flame Sophora trees grow into a forest, not only can their soul powers connect with each other, but even their wisdom can be superimposed.
The threat of the Demonic Flame Sophora is useful for ordinary soul beasts, but it is useless against the Super Douluo Kaishan.
The soul power of the Demon Flame Sophora Forest also has an upper limit. It is impossible for a group of thousand-year-old Demon Flame Sophora trees to get together and exert strength close to that of a Titled Douluo.
Zhan Kaishan held the Divine Axe of Kaishan in his hand and released all the might of the Super Douluo. The flames rising from the Demonic Flame Sophora Forest into the sky were suppressed a lot.
Xiao Mu said, "Mo Yan Huai has truly met his nemesis when he encountered you, whose martial spirit is an axe."
Zhan Kaishan laughed a few times and said:
"Palace Master, this axe of mine is used to split mountains and cut rivers, but isn't it also used to chop down trees?"
When they arrived outside the Demonic Flame Sophora Forest, perhaps feeling threatened, long tongues of red and black flames swept towards Xiao Mu and the others.
Just as Zhan Kaishan was about to make a move, Xiao Mu's Void Devouring Flame automatically emerged.
The moment the Void Devouring Flame appeared, those demonic flames were like encountering their natural enemy. They were originally very aggressive, but now they seemed to be turning back.
How could the Void Devouring Flame tolerate the flames of the Demonic Flame Sophora japonica provoking it and then returning calmly? It immediately chased after them.
The moment the demonic flame came into contact with the Void Devouring Flame, most of it dissipated instantly, and the essence of the flame was completely devoured by the Void Devouring Flame.
Although the Demonic Flame Sophora had some intelligence, it obviously couldn't figure out what was going on, and simply pounced on Xiao Mu with even more intense flames.
But there seemed to be a black hole around the Void Devouring Flame. No matter how many flames came, it was like throwing food and could not cause any harm to Xiao Mu.
With the Void Devouring Flame in his hand, Xiao Mu walked slowly into the Demonic Flame Locust Tree Forest.
The Demonic Flame Locust Tree's main means of attack is fire, but it also has some other ways of attack. After discovering that fire could not eliminate the invader, it simply used its branches and roots to entangle and whip Xiao Mu.
Zhan Kaishan swung his axe, and all the attacking branches and roots were shattered to the ground.
"It's you guys."
Xiao Mu looked at the three sturdy Demon Flame Locust trees.
These three Demon Flame Sophora japonica trees are much thicker than the other similar ones nearby. They are all over three thousand years old, and one is even five thousand years old.
The three Demon Flame Locust trees were obviously a little panicked when Xiao Mu approached, and kept attacking Xiao Mu with their hard branches.
This time, Zhan Kaishan didn't need to take action, Xiao Mu used his first soul skill.
The devouring vortex surrounded Xiao Mu, and all the branches and roots that approached were torn into pieces by the devouring vortex and then swallowed up.
Although Xiao Mu's first soul skill is of defensive type, if the enemy insists on rushing up, the Devouring Vortex will swallow them all regardless of whether they are soul beasts or humans.
The three Demon Flame Locust trees had lost many branches and roots, but they couldn't even slow down Xiao Mu's steps.
Xiao Mu came to one of the Demon Flame Locust trees and put his hand on the trunk.
"I'll give you a quickie."
As soon as Xiao Mu finished speaking, a vast amount of soul power instantly surged into Mo Yanhuai's body.
Generally speaking, the soul power and mental power of soul beasts are relatively weak. When Xiao Mu's hand left the tree trunk, the soul ring of this Demon Flame Locust Tree had already begun to condense.
Void Devouring Flame leaped up and swallowed up the purple soul ring of Demon Flame Sophora japonica.
Xiao Mu was absorbing the energy of the Demon Flame Sophora tree's soul ring in the Demon Flame Sophora tree forest. Zhan Kaishan stood beside him to protect him. The other Demon Flame Sophora trees probably knew that they were powerless to resist, so they simply stopped attacking, hoping that this man would leave after absorbing the soul ring.
The Void Devouring Flame devoured three of the Demon Flame Sophora's soul rings in succession, raising Xiao Mu's second soul ring to the ten thousand year level.
Ten thousand years after the second soul ring was established, Xiao Mu felt that he had reached his limit, and the Void Devouring Flame automatically flew back.
"This is truly a treasure land." Xiao Mu said as he put away the Void Devouring Flame.
When Xiao Mu left the Demon Flame Sophora Forest, many Demon Flame Sophora trees were very grateful. They didn't know that Xiao was planning to visit more often in the future.
"Palace Master, are we leaving the Tianhuo Plain now?" Zhan Kaishan asked.
"No, I still need to obtain the third spirit ring."
Although the Void Devouring Flame would purify the soul ring's energy after devouring it, and part of the energy was used to strengthen the Void Devouring Flame itself, Xiao Mu absorbed less energy.
But the combination of the two soul rings allowed Xiao Mu's soul power to break through level 30.
"The Palace Master's cultivation speed is truly unprecedented." Zhan Kaishan exclaimed.
Xiao Mu smiled and shook his head. Compared to the increase in soul power, he was more pleased that the Void Devouring Flame also became stronger.
Perhaps in the future, he will be able to reproduce the true power of the Void Devouring Flame, holding black flames and burning mountains and boiling seas.
"Continue on, and head deep into the Skyfire Plains to find a soul beast suitable to become my third soul ring."
The deeper you go into the Skyfire Plain, the higher the temperature becomes.
Xiao Mu looked from afar and saw smoke rising from the mountains on the horizon.
Zhan Kaishan explained, "There are three volcanoes in the Skyfire Plains, and the one in front of us is one of them. Many powerful fire-attributed soul beasts live near these three volcanoes."
"Then let's go look around this volcano."
The three volcanoes in the Skyfire Plains are all active volcanoes, occasionally spewing out hot lava from underground.
These lavas are a disaster for ordinary people and soul beasts, but for some powerful fire-attributed soul beasts, they are the most precious treasures of heaven and earth.
The lava carries a large amount of pure fire energy and will not solidify for a long time.
Every time the Skyfire Plain volcano erupts, a fierce battle often breaks out among the soul beasts as they fight for the lava.
As he approached the volcano, Xiao Mu heard the angry roar of a beast coming from the front.
"Has this volcano erupted recently? It looks like there are spirit beasts fighting."
"It's very likely. This is a good thing for the Palace Master. The soul beasts that usually hide will often emerge at this time to fight for the lava."
Zhan Kaishan was right. The two of them then encountered many soul beasts that liked to hide in caves.
The closer they got to the volcano, the more active Xiao Mu's Void Devouring Flame martial soul became, as if there was something in front of it attracting it.
"Stop, the Fire Leopard Sect is doing business here. Outsiders are not allowed to set foot within a ten-mile radius of this volcano. Get out of here immediately."
When they were still more than ten miles away from the volcano, several people in red clothes stopped Xiao Mu and Zhan Kaishan.
