The temperature of the magma in a volcano can reach over 1000 degrees Celsius. It’s not just human bodies; even steel would melt in a few blinks if placed in it!
“Lord Bai Ye plays with fire, so he should… probably be alright?”
“It looks like he’s fine staying on the surface of the magma, but the entrance to the passage is below the magma, even within it. This means he has to pass through the magma to get there…”
“Honestly, I really want to slice up Brother Ye and see what he’s made of ໒(◑w◑)७”
“Ahem! Don’t say such things out loud!”
“Shh! Her Highness the Princess is here…”
Several large helicopters roared as they flew from the center of Tokyo to the foot of Mount Fuji. Princess Qing He, dressed in a white kimono that exuded grace and elegance, hurried over with the puppet Prime Minister Matsuno Yoichi.
“Where is Mr. Bai?”
Princess Qing He looked around, her expression appearing somewhat eager.
The commander of the garrison troops was startled. As one of the highest-ranking officials in Country R, he naturally knew that the princess before him was the actual leader of Country R. With her exceptional talent, it wouldn’t be long before she legitimately became the top figure in Country R’s political arena!
Moreover, among the many ministers, she was always known as a ruthless individual. Yet, here, she displayed such an emotional demeanor. Most notably, the princess, who usually appeared with minimal makeup, was dressed in full regalia today!
“Mr. Bai has gone in!” the commander of the troops replied quickly.
Princess Qing He gazed at the smoking crater, a hint of complexity in her eyes.
Not long ago, she had been discussing world domination with him as a means to achieve her goal of taking over Country R’s political scene, even using her beauty as a lure. And now, after such a short time, he had truly pushed her forward, and the World Alliance had been completed ahead of schedule!
He was also the de facto uncrowned leader of Planet Blue!
Such a powerful, influential man held a fatal attraction for an ambitious woman like her.
Unfortunately, after arriving in Country R, he hadn’t even met her.
“Perhaps he doesn’t remember what he said back then?”
Subtly hearing her words, the commander and the puppet prime minister’s close confidants felt a wave of complex emotions, pity.
To think that Princess Qing He, such a goddess of wealth, power, and beauty, would have countless admirers not just in Country R, but on the entire Planet Blue. Yet, that fellow, not to mention ordinary girls, even girls as excellent as you had countless suitors, not to mention those pointy-eared elves and humanoid monsters…
“Send samurai to monitor the volcano 24 hours a day!” In just a few seconds, Princess Qing He regained her outwardly elegant, inwardly ruthless composure.
“Yes!”
“All samurai of the Yamada squad will be divided into three smaller teams, monitoring Mount Fuji in three shifts!” The commander had already given the order, and a portion of the troops stationed on the mountainside immediately split into two teams to head up the mountain! Samurai, by the way, was the general term for Country R’s super soldiers.
Inside the crater of Mount Fuji, he had already descended three to four hundred meters. The surroundings were filled with scorching, blinding magma, with temperatures reaching a terrifying 2000 degrees Celsius!
However, for Bai Ye, who possessed extremely strong flame immunity, it was like soaking in warm water.
After descending a few hundred more meters, the magma below gave way to a large space, with a clear boundary between the magma and the void.
“Roar!”
As Bai Ye entered this void, he saw a four-legged demon dragon herding a few small monsters and some half-demons with bee-like bodies, seemingly ordering them to charge out of the crater.
At the bottom of the void, there were already many corpses. Some were charred black, clearly having died from the magma, while others were covered in gruesome wounds, as if bitten to death by the four-legged demon dragon!
The half-demons flying in the void suddenly saw Bai Ye enter and their expressions clearly faltered. The next moment, sensing the terrifying aura emanating from Bai Ye, their faces changed drastically, and they bowed their heads respectfully.
“Greetings, Demon King! (Common tongue of the Tethys World)”
“Roar! (What kind of bullshit Demon King? The passage isn’t even stable yet, where’s the Demon King?)”
The four-legged demon dragon, seeing that these low-level monsters and half-demons were not obeying its orders, was clearly enraged and had not noticed Bai Ye’s arrival.
Just as it was about to strike down a half-demon to establish authority, it saw that the monsters beside it were also prostrating themselves on the ground, trembling. Sensing that something was wrong, it abruptly turned its head.
It saw a guy in strange attire slowly raising his hand, pointing towards it. Lightning flickered at his fingertips, exuding a terrifying demonic power.
It really was a Demon King!
“Zzzzzt~”
Before the four-legged demon dragon could react, the lightning from Bai Ye’s fingertips shot out, accompanied by a skin-crawling crackling sound, instantly piercing the demon dragon’s massive body.
Boom!
The four-legged demon dragon’s body twitched, smoke billowing from it, and then it slowly collapsed onto the ground. The smell of burnt flesh and meat gradually permeated the air. If Lydia or Gou Dan were here, they would probably have started carving it up by now!
What a terrifying Demon King!
Witnessing the tragic fate of the four-legged demon dragon, the remaining monsters and half-demons were horrified, not daring to look at Bai Ye, lest he annihilate them with another flick of his finger.
They were also filled with bewilderment. Such a powerful Demon King, from which race could he be? Why had they never heard of him?
Bai Ye retracted all his aura and slowly floated past all the monsters and half-demons, arriving behind them.
There was a huge, gaping hole there, intermittently flashing with bright light and emitting spatial fluctuations.
Bai Ye released his spatial perception. Unlike the previous passages, his perception was hardly hindered, penetrating straight through. Take the Wo Jiao Ranch area, for example, where spatial faults and temporal discontinuities made it impossible for him to cross, no matter how powerful his perception.
Passing through layers of bizarre light clusters, as if traversing through worlds. Finally, at the last light cluster at the end, Bai Ye vaguely saw the silhouette of a forest.
“Is this… the Tethys World?”
On the other side of the passage, two groups of figures were staring. One side was the half-demon race, and the other was the monster race.
Leading the monster race was a short-haired middle-aged man, half-naked, with numerous gruesome scars and an aura of malevolence, his original form as a monster indistinguishable.
Leading the half-demons was a werewolf, wielding a large cleaver, his eyes glinting as if calculating something.
Suddenly, the werewolf abruptly turned his head towards the passage. He seemed to have sensed something! However, after just a moment, the feeling vanished.
The cunning werewolf frowned and turned to ask solemnly, “Big Scorpion, did you feel anything?”
The monster leader glanced at him and replied coldly, “What?”
“In the passage, I just felt like something was watching us…” the werewolf said, already gripping his large cleaver. This cleaver looked ordinary, but it was a high-grade demonic artifact!
“Heh heh…”
However, Big Scorpion stared at the passage and sneered. “In such a low-level world, you can still be this cautious!”
“They say your werewolf race is fierce and cunning, but I think you’re just a bunch of cowardly dogs! If you’re really scared, then retreat. Anyway, the next time it opens, only one Demon King can pass through!”
The subordinates on both sides were eavesdropping, some chuckling, others drawing their swords…
The werewolf leader also had a grim expression, but he firmly believed that his intuition was correct!
To everyone’s surprise, the werewolf suddenly suppressed his anger and actually retreated.
“Then I wish you good luck!”
