Siheyuan: The Temptation of the Mountains

Chapter 781: Pungent Smell of Sulfur



Chapter 781: Pungent Smell of Sulfur

The passage was filled with a pungent smell of sulfur, and the surrounding walls were flashing a strange red light.

As they were walking, the ground suddenly began to shake violently, and a group of stone giants emerged from the ground.

These stone giants were more than two people tall, exuding a cold aura, and every step they took made the ground tremble.

Lin Ze shouted loudly: "Don't panic, everyone! Stay calm and fight according to the coordination we have practiced before!" His voice echoed in the corridor, bringing a sense of calm to everyone.

Hearing Lin Ze's shout, everyone quickly adjusted their status and rushed towards the stone giant without hesitation. However, the stone giant's skin was extremely hard, like steel, and everyone's attacks had almost no effect on it.

Lin Ze calmly observed the stone giant, and soon he found that the stone giant's joints were relatively weak, so he decisively ordered his companions to focus their attacks on these joints.

While the crowd was fighting the stone giant, a large number of fire snakes suddenly emerged from both sides of the passage. These fire snakes were burning with blazing flames, spitting out long tongues, and wherever they went, the ground was burned into scorched earth.

Faced with this sudden change, everyone's situation became increasingly difficult. Not only did they have to deal with the powerful stone giant, but they also had to avoid the fierce attacks of the fire snake.

Lin Ze's brain was working rapidly, and suddenly he thought of a countermeasure. He shouted loudly: "Friends who are good at water magic, cast your spells immediately and use the water curtain to block the progress of the fire snake!"

Following his orders, several companions who were good at water magic quickly cast a powerful water curtain, forming a solid line of defense to keep the fire snake out.

At the same time, the others did not stop attacking the stone giant, they continued to attack the stone giant's joints. With the concerted efforts of everyone, the stone giant finally could not withstand such continuous attacks and fell down one by one.

And those fire snakes were blocked by the water curtain, unable to move forward and were eventually forced back by it.

The battle in the passage finally ended and peace was restored. However, everyone did not have time to breathe, because in front of them, a new light was flashing, as if foreshadowing the coming of a new challenge.

Lin Ze wiped the sweat from his forehead and said loudly: "Everyone, take a break first, replenish your energy, and prepare for new challenges."

Everyone nodded, sat down against the wall, and took out the dry food and water they had brought with them.

But before they could rest for long, the flickering light suddenly became extremely strong, and then a huge figure slowly walked out of the light.

This turned out to be a lava monster the size of a mountain! Its body was like a moving volcano, made of boiling magma. Every step it took, the ground was burned and cracked, as if the earth could not bear its weight under its feet. The surrounding air was also distorted and deformed, forming waves of heat that made it almost impossible to breathe.

The lava monster opened its bloody mouth, and a column of hot magma gushed out like a volcanic eruption, rushing straight towards everyone with a devastating momentum. Seeing this, everyone hurriedly scattered to avoid being hit by this terrifying magma column.

Lin Ze's eyes were sharp as a torch, and he quickly analyzed the lava beast's weaknesses. He found that although the beast was powerful, its movement speed was relatively slow, which was undoubtedly a breakthrough point that could be exploited.

Therefore, Lin Ze made a prompt decision and ordered his companions to disperse and attack the lava beast from different directions. At the same time, he asked his companions who were good at earth magic to cast earth magic, creating sharp earth thorns that densely pierced the legs of the lava beast like raindrops.

Although these earth spikes cannot cause fatal damage to the lava beast, they can effectively slow down its movement speed and make it clumsy when attacking.

Under the siege of the crowd, the lava beast gradually became overwhelmed. It was constantly hit by various attacks and roared. However, this beast was powerful after all, and its counterattack was extremely fierce. For a while, the two sides fell into a fierce tug-of-war.

Just when everyone was in a stalemate with the lava beast, Lin Ze suddenly discovered that there was a place on the lava beast's back where the magma was flowing more slowly, which seemed to be its weakness.

He made a prompt decision and shouted, "Everyone, concentrate on attacking the area on its back!" When everyone heard the order, they immediately adjusted the direction of their attack.

The friend who was good at wind magic muttered something and waved his hands. Suddenly, a strong wind blew and blew towards everyone's attacks. With the help of the strong wind, everyone's attacks were like arrows from a bow, rushing towards the target - the lava monster.

The combined attack of the crowd was like a violent storm hitting the lava beast. Finally, under this fierce attack, a crack appeared on the lava beast's hard back. However, just as everyone was ready to pursue the victory, the lava beast seemed to sense the approach of danger. It suddenly let out an angry roar, which was deafening, as if the whole earth was shaking.

Along with the roar, the magma around the lava monster's body began to surge wildly, forming surging magma waves, like a ferocious beast, pouncing towards everyone with bared fangs and claws.

"Hide!" Lin Ze shouted hastily. Everyone heard the shout and quickly dodged. However, despite their quick movements, a few of their companions were unfortunately hit by the lava wave, and they immediately groaned in pain.

However, these companions did not back down. They gritted their teeth, endured the pain, and launched the attack again without hesitation.

As the attacks of the crowd became more and more fierce, the cracks on the back of the lava monster became bigger and bigger. Finally, there was a loud "bang" and the back of the lava monster suddenly exploded like a bomb that had been detonated. The boiling magma splashed everywhere like a blooming flower of death.

The lava monster shook a few times in the violent explosion, but finally couldn't hold on and fell to the ground with a bang.

Seeing the lava monster finally fall, everyone couldn't help but cheer, their faces filled with the joy of victory. However, before their cheers died down, a low roar suddenly came from the front. This roar was more terrifying than the previous roar of the lava monster, as if it came from the depths of hell, making people shudder.

The smiles on everyone's faces froze in an instant as they realized that there might be even more powerful enemies waiting for them ahead.

Lin Ze's face darkened, and he signaled everyone to be quiet, tightening his weapons.

As the roar got closer, a huge black shadow slowly walked out from the depths of the passage. It turned out to be a dark demon dog with three heads.

Its entire body radiated a dark light, and each of its heads could spew out black flames. Wherever it went, the surrounding air was corroded with a sizzling sound.
