But these students had strong bodies. 100 degrees could cook a normal person, but not them. After going inside, they closed their eyes and used their spirit to observe the world.
Inside the volcano there were many caves. The caves had rivers of lava bubbling all sorts of dangerous gases. Each time a bubble bursts, lava splattered everywhere. People had to be wary when walking through narrow pathways. If they came into contact with the lava, there would be immediate burns. The temperature of the lava was extremely hot and could not be touched straightaway. The teams side jumped and were very careful.
Jiang Li, Li Zhen and their squad stayed together and walked on the same path. Meanwhile, Meng XIngyun, Tang Yan and their squad also stayed together on another pathway. Both parties walked besides the lava flow into the depth of the volcano.
The temperature was getting warmer and warmer, and everyone felt like it was a sulfur bath. People with a life force of 1.5 and lower would suffocate to death in here. Luckily, everyone here had a life force of above 2 and had consumed large amounts of spirit chi. Their bloods contained spirit chi which could wash away the poisonous substances from the bodily system.
Pang! In the centre of the lava river, a large bubble burst and large amounts of lava splashed out. Everyone saw a flash of red wave in front of them. If this was splashed on the body, they would have been fatally injured.
“Ahhh!” The two girls couldn’t help but scream and tried to dodge the spluttering lava.
“Don’t move all of you!” Jiang Li saw his four teammates were trying to dodge the angry spitting bubbles. He hurried and roared, pushing his hands forward suddenly. Immediately, the congenial chi appeared and an invisible air wall pushed forward. The sound of friction between air could be heard. This air wall blocked the lava, pushing it back into the river. Jiang Li had a certain degree of expertise when using the congenial chi. Every time he used it to control air flow, he felt he had a deeper understanding to the Emperor Wind Seal. However, he was far from controlling their deepest secrets.
“Mhmm, this guy’s not bad.” A man from Meng Xingyun’s team exclaimed, and his eyes were full of surprise and wonder: “Turning the air into a wall with one gesture... Merely twisting his hands for winds to appear, winds which blew the lava away! This method of using congenial chi to control air is very advanced!”
As the man walked, there was a special rhythm of vibration, creating a circle of air surrounding him which repelled the poisonous smoke outside. This was using one’s muscles to control air flow as he walked, forming a type of protection congenial chi. This person’s life force was at least 4. Jiang Li was far from being able to do this.
If someone used a sword to cut his body, it was shattered by the air flow around him. This congenial chi protected the body at any time and was a bit like the unbreakable body in those wuxia novels.
It could only be done once your life force reached a certain height.
These people gave off a sense that they were winds that pushed the clouds with their body gestures. Even a slight shake from their body would resonate with the air flow around them creating a type of air force field.
“This state…. Amazing!”
Jiang Li moved his eyes away and saw Meng Xingyun again. As he was walking, there was also a flow of chi around him. It was exactly the same as that man. In fact, he stood on solid ground with each step, shaking his body making the air around him blow up. His heart beat, breathing and pulse had all become an invisible power, which allowed him to control air flow to a very accurate degree.
This state made him realise something: Chi flow could also be controlled this way. Many parts of the Emperor Wind Seal he didn’t understand were solved now. Now, the way he controlled the congenial chi was simple and vulgar. It wasn’t precise enough. He had learnt from Meng Xingyun in this short while; this was because Hong Heiyu’s means were too advanced. He had already formed his holy fetus and possessed godly arts. Jiang Li could not yet understand the means of godly arts.
Meanwhile, Meng Xingyun was his next target. When he saw him, he immediately knew how he should take his next step. Immediately, Jiang Li started to control his body, using his spirit to feel the waves of air flow. His heart suddenly beat and all the muscles in his body shook in unison. A flow of air was formed immediately. But, he still couldn’t do it as perfectly as Meng Xingyun.
“This kid’s congenial chi controlling methods have become slightly better.” An old student said to Meng Xingyun: “Look, he is using his heart, pulse and breathing to control the air around him to form an air force field to repel the poisonous gas!”
“He’s obviously learning from you.” Another old student said.
“His learning capabilities are excellent,” Meng Xingyun also noticed Jiang Li’s peculiarity: “This person is still talented. Although I beat him easily on the day, his counter-attack was also sharp.”
