I Am Overlord

The Blazing Mountain was originally a barren land. Now that it was completely incinerated by the flames, it was truly a spectacular sight to behold.    

    

Normally, when a fire broke out in the mountains, it would only set the trees, flowers, and plants on the mountains on ablaze before extinguishing the fire.    

    

However, the fire in this place didn't extinguish. It was as if they were only willing to burn down the rocks here.    

    

In fact, it was due to this reason that people noticed that Thousand-Year Fire of Earth's Core were born here.    

    

Thousand-Year Fire of Earth's Core s were the type of flames that had gone through thousands of years of immersion and formed flames that were higher than normal. They already had an indestructible characteristic and could continuously burn without end.    

    

Every type of Thousand-Year Fire of Earth's Core had gone through a long process of forming, and the appearance of every type of Thousand-Year Fire of Earth's Core would cause great waves, so much so that even the king would be moved by it.    

    

It was just that this time, the Cloud Edge Pavilion had made a decision, allowing only those below the King's Realm to collect them.    

    

However, this did not mean that there were kings that could be willing to miss it. It was just that these kings that had come to collect the Thousand-Year Fire of Earth's Core had all been mysteriously killed.    

    

This should be the domineering response from the Cloud Edge Pavilion. Everything within the Cloud Edge City is up to them to decide, whoever dares to disobey will kill!    

    

After Xiang Shaoyun, Gong Qinyin and the rest passed through the obstruction of the Chen Family, they finally arrived in front of the Blazing Mountain.    

    

Xiang Shaoyun looked at the dozen or so burning mountains in front of him, and felt the strong scorching heat. He could not help but sigh lightly, "As expected of the place where Thousand-Year Fire of Earth's Core were born, the Strength of Fire is so strong!"    

    

"En, the Thousand-Year Fire of Earth's Core is here, it will not be easy to find it. Many people have unfortunately fallen here, we must be careful!" Gong Qinyin said from the side.    

    

"I have the Cold Star Stone's protection, how are you going to get in?" Xiang Shaoyun asked curiously.    

    

"You don't have to worry about that. I have the King Level Ice Armor. It can help me get in!" Gong Qinyin said.    

    

"That's alright. Then let's go in together!" Xiang Shaoyun said.    

    

"Don't we need to find out where the Fire of Earth's Core is before making our move?" Gong Qinyin said.    

    

Xiang Shaoyun waved his hand and said, "Wherever the Fire of Earth's Core comes from, it will be there. There is no need to find out!"    

    

He had read many ancient books and had a certain understanding of the situation of the Fire of Earth's Core. Normally, wherever it was born, it would exist and would not easily leave, because it would need to continuously grow.    

    

This was a process of fire's evolution, the same as when a cultivator advanced.    

    

"Oh, you know so much!" Gong Qinyin could not help but reveal an expression of admiration towards Xiang Shaoyun.    

    

"Read more books when you're free. You'll understand it as well!" Xiang Shaoyun replied, then turned and walked towards the direction of the volcano.    

    

On the road, they had already met many experts in Astral Transformation Stage, many of them were in groups, and some of them were travelling alone, needless to say, they were all looking for Thousand-Year Fire of Earth's Core s to collect their fortuitous encounters.    

    

Most of them were attendants or disciples of the Cloud Edge Pavilion, so they were not stopped by the people from the Chen Family.    

    

Of course, there were also people from other powers or rogue cultivators. They did not come from the right path, and could also come from a long way away.    

    

The only reason the Chen Family had set up a barrier was to reduce the number of people who stole Thousand-Year Fire of Earth's Core s.    

    

All of their preparations were made to lessen the number of opponents Chen Ziloong had to face. They didn't really want to completely lock down this place, as Cloud Edge Pavilion wouldn't allow that.    

    

As Xiang Shaoyun and the others approached the crater, the temperature became hotter and hotter. Their mounts could no longer endure it and began to roar continuously in protest.    

    

Xiang Shaoyun could only helplessly dismount, and had Mo Mo stay behind to wait.    

    

As for Gong Qinyin, she had also put down her Snow Lion, and had a person from Gong Family stay behind to guard it.    

    

At this point, they had to walk closer to the crater.    

    

However, before they even started, another person came to cause trouble for them.    

    

"Take out the Chilling Qi from your bodies, or else I will teach you a lesson!" The man was very direct, and the moment he opened his mouth, it was clear that he was here to seize the coldest object.    

    

There were a total of seven of them, whose numbers were about the same as Xiang Shaoyun's group, with realms not lower than Astral Transformation Stage. Judging from their attire, they should be people from a Demon Hunt Squad or some sort of vicious bandit group, and each of them had a strong aura of being buried in the grass.    

    

"Mo Mo, I'll leave them to you!" Xiang Shaoyun was too lazy to waste time on these people, he ordered Mo Mo.    

    

After Mo Mo heard Xiang Shaoyun's order, without saying a word, he rushed towards the group of people.    

    

Although these people were all at the Astral Transformation Stage, the strongest was only at the sixth stage of the True Profound Realm. They actually dared to have ideas about Xiang Shaoyun and the others.    

    

When Mo Mo made her move, the few of them realised that they had regretted kicking the steel plate.    

    

Unfortunately, there was no medicine for regret in this world, and their tragedy was destined to end there.    

    

"This is a very cruel path. Are you ready?" Xiang Shaoyun looked at Gong Qinyin and asked.    

    

Gong Qinyin revealed a determined look and said, "I just died!"    

    

Xiang Shaoyun gave Gong Qinyin a thumbs up, then began heading towards the crater of the volcano.    

    

Gong Qinyin naturally followed along, and there were four other people with Gong Family following behind her.    

    

After walking for a while, Xiang Shaoyun finally noticed that the four people had a red glow around them, as if they had merged with the energy around them. He exclaimed in astonishment, "So it turns out that they all cultivate fire energy, no wonder they are not afraid of the temperature here. Maybe one of them is the main force?"    

    

Xiang Shaoyun carefully observed one of them, and in the end, landed on the body of one of the young men. He estimated that he was about twenty-five years old, with a dark complexion, he looked a little older than his actual age, and although he was not very eye-catching, his fighting strength had already reached the level six Astral Transformation Stage, and the thing that caught Xiang Shaoyun's attention the most was that the other three Gong Family people were protecting him, not Gong Qinyin.    

    

This was very obvious, the young man among the Gong Family people was the real main character.    

    

Xiang Shaoyun secretly said in his heart, "It seems that the people from the Gong Family do not fully trust Gong Qinyin, perhaps she has even concealed this from me?"    

    

After Xiang Shaoyun encountered a betrayal, he kept a high vigilance against anyone. Even now, when he was on good terms with Gong Qinyin, he would not completely open his heart.    

    

It was because of this that he noticed the existence of that young man from Gong Family.    

    

Just then, a large group of people suddenly flew down from the mountain. One of them shouted loudly, "Quickly run, many Flame Beast have rushed down!"
