Complete Martial Arts Attributes

Chapter 1009: In And Out

Lava swamp.

Only lava could be seen here. Steam rose into the air, and the lava bubbled happily. Even the air seemed to have turned distorted from the heat.

There were no living creatures here. The place was barren and empty.

This environment wasn’t suitable for living either. Wang Teng wondered why the owner of this small world created it.

Shouldn’t he create a utopia with an abundance of lives and a comfortable environment?

Mind you, the creator could enter this small world too.

Many universe-stage martial warriors would build extravagant sculptures in their small world and plant all sorts of special flowers and fruits. They would then buy some beauties and put them in the small world to serve them. They had an amazing time inside.

But the Flaming River World wasn’t a place to relax and enjoy. It was torture to be in this environment.

Wang Teng didn’t understand why the creator of the Flaming River World made this small world for himself. It made no sense at all!

Could it be that this creator wanted to lead an austere life?

Wang Teng complained silently in his heart as he sank down the lava and opened a path so that they could travel within.

What comforted him was that there were more attribute bubbles below the swamp compared to the surface.

Bubbles were scattered all over the bottom, looking conspicuous in his eyes.

Collect!

Constellation Force (Fire)*50

Constellation Force (Fire)*40

Constellation Force (Fire)*60

…

As more and more constellation fire Force entered his pocket, a smile crept up Wang Teng’s face uncontrollably.

The environment in the swamp was special, so Wang Teng didn’t put down his guard even though his team wasn’t weak. He remained vigilant.

His team members were wearing armors covered with Nether Frost, so they could temporarily resist the lava. However, they would still melt in the high temperature. They wouldn’t be able to stay here for long.

Fortunately, Nether Frost was special. Other normal frost or ice wouldn’t be able to resist the high temperature in this place.

As for Wang Teng, he was different. He covered his body with the Emerald Glazed Flame, rendering the lava useless. He could travel freely in the swamp.

An Lan looked at him with envy. This was how powerful a divine flame was. Wang Teng wasn’t afraid of any normal fire!

“Split up but don’t go too far,” Wang Teng spoke to his team using voice transmission.

Everyone separated according to the plan. The five martial warriors and the two spiritual pets split into two small groups.

Wang Teng and An Lan were one group. Little White, the metal armor flaming scorpion, and the other three mecha martial warriors formed another group.

Wang Teng used the Emerald Glazed Flame as a medium and hid his spiritual power in it. He then created many tentacles and stretched them into the lava.

He checked his surroundings as he moved forward.

“Let’s go this way.” His eyes lit up suddenly because he sensed something. He changed direction and moved to his left.

“You found something?” An Lan chased after him hurriedly and asked through voice transmission.

“I sense a thicker constellation fire Force there. It might be the flaming river crystals,” Wang Teng said.

An Lan nodded, not probing further. He knew that Wang Teng was more sensitive in this environment, so he listened to him.

He didn’t feel any unwillingness. Wang Teng was a triple-field grandmaster with powerful spiritual power. Even as a cosmos-stage divine spirit master, he didn’t dare to say that he was more powerful than Wang Teng.

An Lan was a heaven-stage martial warrior and a cosmos-stage divine spirit master. The combination of these two was extremely powerful.

After some time, Wang Teng saw more attribute bubbles in front of him. His eyes shone brightly.

Looks like this lava swamp is my lucky ground. Wang Teng muttered in his heart. He released his spiritual power and picked up the attribute bubbles.

Constellation Force (Fire)*80

Constellation Force (Fire)*50

Constellation Force (Fire)*100

…

These attribute bubbles have a higher value than the ones above. Looks like this is the right place. There must be flaming river crystals here.

Wang Teng stopped in his tracks and signaled to An Lan. Then, he focused his gaze below.

“Found it. The fire Force here is thicker.” Wang Teng pointed below.

“Below the ground? Leave it to me.” An Lan chuckled. He waved his hand, and a beam of light shot out of his body.

Boom!

It penetrated right into the ground below. The rock layer at the bottom of the swamp was extremely special. It was able to withstand extremely high temperatures and was tougher and harder than normal rocks.

Yet the destructive power of the beam of light made short work of it. A cut was instantly made in the bottom layer.

A dense red glow penetrated from the crack.

An Lan had a strong grasp of his power. The instant he cut through the bottom layer and noticed the red glow, he stopped.

Wang Teng finally saw the real identity of the beam of light.

This was a cone-shaped spiritual weapon. It was spinning madly under An Lan’s control and penetrating the hard layer of rock bottom.

“This is… Thousand Armaments Vessel!” Wang Teng was shocked.

“Hahaha, you’re right. I didn’t think you’d recognize it with one look.” An Lan laughed. With a wave of his hand, the spiritual weapon started dismantling into various parts. It combined again to form the familiar black box Wang Teng knew.

“Good riddance, I knew that the Thousand Armaments Vessel had many combinations when I made it. Indeed, after seeing this form, this is an amazing weapon,” Wang Teng exclaimed.

The blueprint An Lan gave him didn’t consist of all the combinations. This might be the trump card An Lan kept for himself.

The blacksmith might know the theory of how to make the Thousand Armaments Vessel, but without the combinations, its power would be heavily discounted.

Wang Teng knew that some made-to-order spiritual weapons were exclusive. There was no counterfeit.

It wasn’t like those mass-produced weapons. They were of a certain grade, but they weren’t unique. They couldn’t be compared to these special weapons.

This Thousand Armaments Vessel was a spiritual weapon designed by the mecha race. Besides them, Wang Teng was probably the only one who touched it.

An Lan knew what Wang Teng was thinking. Since he took it out here, he didn’t plan to hide it from him. He pointed at the bottom of the swamp. “Let’s take a look.”

Wang Teng nodded, sinking further down. He arrived at the spot where the red light came from.

A patch of fiery-red crystals could be seen below the rock layer. The scene was dazzling to the eye.

“These are the flaming river crystals!” Round Ball’s voice appeared in Wang Teng’s mind. It sounded a little excited. “You’re so lucky. You found them so quickly.”

“Haha, I have the Emerald Glazed Flame, so places filled with fire elements are a piece of cake for me.” Wang Teng chuckled. He was in a good mood.

“Let’s start digging.”

He called An Lan over, and the duo started digging.

“Be careful, don’t damage them too much or the fire energy inside will be destroyed,” Round Ball reminded him.

“Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing.” Wang Teng acted carefully. He was a divine spirit master, so he could use his spiritual power to control his weapons. There wouldn’t be too much deviation.

An Lan didn’t need any warning either. He was a cosmos-stage divine spirit master. He was more powerful than Wang Teng, a celestial-stage divine spirit master. His level of control was higher than Wang Teng’s.

The flaming river crystals here weren’t all gathered in one location. They were scattered around, increasing the difficulty of their excavation.

However, with their cooperation, they progressed rather quickly. They managed to dig out a few thousand kilograms of flaming river crystals in the blink of an eye. Wang Teng kept them.

“These flaming river crystals are indeed special. I can tell that they’re beneficial to fire element martial warriors and star beasts,” Wang Teng smiled and said.

“You’re a fire-element martial warrior. If you use them to cultivate, you’ll be able to rise to the celestial stage very soon,” An Lan looked at him and said.

Wang Teng smiled. He would be able to advance to the celestial stage without the flaming river crystals.

There were many attribute bubbles in the Flaming River World. Not only could he advance to the celestial stage, but he would also be able to raise his ability greatly.

An Lan didn’t know what he was thinking. He thought that Wang Teng was extremely confident in himself and disdained using the flaming river crystals.

Relying on oneself for a breakthrough was better than relying on external forces.

Based on their senses, there were at least a few more kilograms of flaming river crystals deep below. They were deeper, so the digging process was harder.

Just when Wang Teng was about to dig up the rest of the flaming river crystals so that they could move to the next location, a beam of red light shot out from the hole among the rocks and attempted to bite Wang Teng’s wrist.

“Be careful!” An Lan reminded him in a low voice.

Wang Teng reacted swiftly. He formed a layer of Nether Frost on his finger and pointed at the beam of red light.

An astonishing scene appeared.

The beam of red light was as fast as lightning. It shrank back instantly and disappeared without a trace.

Wang Teng’s finger froze in mid-air. He didn’t know what to do. What was he supposed to point at when he didn’t have a target?

He exchanged glances with An Lan and felt speechless. “Did you see what that was?”

“Erm… I didn’t,” An Lan said helplessly.

Swoosh!

At that moment, the beam of red light appeared again. It seemed to know that Wang Teng was hard to deal with, so it dashed towards An Lan.

An Lan blinked. He raised his hand, and Force gathered on it. He prepared to give it a heavy blow.

The beam of red light didn’t think that An Lan’s reaction would be so fast as well. It shrank back again. It seemed extremely timid.

An Lan’s finger paused in mid-air. The corners of his lips twitched.

The two martial warriors stared at one another. They could tell that this beam of red light was powerful, but it was amazingly fast.

It was… a little timid too!

It came out and shrank back.

Was it playing with them?

“I think I saw it this time. I think it’s a red earthworm,” Wang Teng said uncertainly.

“Earthworm?!” An Lan frowned.

“Maybe it’s a Flaming Crystal Red Phosphorus Worm,” Round Ball said.

“Flaming Crystal Red Phosphorus Worm?” Wang Teng quickly asked in his mind. “Do you know what it is?”
