Soul Land V: Rebirth of Tang San

"Elder has arrived." Huo Zhao said to Tang San by his side.

Tang San smiled and nodded, then proactively walked to the bow of the boat.

Flames descended from the sky, and a strong light instantly fell, causing a faint smile to appear on Tang San's face.

A figure appeared in the penetration; the small boat continued to move forward, unaffected by the descending figure.

The person who descended looked like a middle-aged man with a very handsome appearance and a pair of eyes shining with golden-red brilliance, full of life, sizing up Tang San.

Tang San slightly nodded, greeting him, while also transmitting his thoughts through divine consciousness, "Hello, Elder of the Huoli Clan, I am Tang San from the Human race."

The Chief of the Huoli Clan carefully felt the aura emanating from Tang San, and his face involuntarily showed a hint of surprise, "Hello, distinguished guest from afar. Your aura feels very unique. I actually can't discern your strength clearly."

The distinguished title probably comes from your inability to discern my cultivation base, thought Tang San, but he outwardly maintained a composed smile and said, "That might be because my abilities differ from those of the nobles. I happened to pass by your esteemed place while I was cruising above the Endless Blue Ocean and discovered this amazingly mystical world."

The Chief of the Huoli Clan, Elder Huo Xing, said, "Since you come from afar, you are a guest. It just so happens that you should visit our clan." Meanwhile, he waved his large hand, and the boat was immediately enveloped by dense fire elements, and the surrounding scenery suddenly became blurry due to the sudden sharp increase in the boat's speed.

Elder Huo Xing told Tang San, "Your arrival is timely. It is precisely the time for our clan's Fire God ceremony. Welcome to the Magma Red Sea." As he spoke, he once again slightly bowed towards Tang San as a sign of respect.

Tang San quickly responded with a bow, smiling, "It's my honor. To see such a magical world like the Magma Red Sea during this cruise is truly fulfilling. If possible, could you kindly introduce me to the situation concerning the Magma Red Sea?"

Without any hesitation, Elder Huo Xing responded, "Of course. We, the Magma Red Sea, always welcome friends. This place is a separate world, quite unique across the entire Falan Planet. You mentioned you are a Human, which indeed surprised me, as I know Humans are a common race living on the Demon Monster Land, but I didn't expect someone of your capabilities."

Tang San's heart stirred, "Elder Huo Xing, you also know about the Demon Monster Land?" Referring to Humans as a common race was already quite courteous. No one knew better than Tang San what the situation of Humans was on the Demon Monster Land.

Elder Huo Xing nodded and said, "We are somewhat close to the Rihchen Empire, and we usually have some exchanges and trade goods. Naturally, we know about Demon Monster Land."

Tang San nodded and smiled, "I see." From Elder Huo Xing's words, he understood their current geographic position. After many days of flying, he must have traveled from the Demon Monster Land all the way east, circling almost the entire northern part of Falan Planet, reaching the west of Demon Monster Land, where the Magma Red Sea was located above the Endless Blue Ocean, close to the Rihchen Empire of the Spirit Monster race. It seemed they were not far from the Rihchen Empire. It meant that if he continued flying as originally planned, it wouldn't be many days before he could see the Demon Monster Land again.

However, he hadn't expected that the Rihchen Empire not only was sea-bound but also had interactions with the Huoli Clan within the Magma Red Sea.

Elder Huo Xing said, "Our Magma Red Sea primarily depends on the Fire God Mountain for its existence. The history of our Huoli Clan is long and complicated, and it's not convenient to talk about our origins, so I won't delve into that. Our clan has always been the guardians of the Fire God Mountain, living near it. The Fire God Mountain constantly releases magma from the earth's core, relieving planetary pressure. Our existence is dependent on this; by adjusting fire elements, we stabilize the ecological environment here, allowing ourselves to flourish within this range. Relying on the Fire God Mountain, we have established Fire God City, which is the place where our clan survives."

Tang San, surprised, asked, "Is Fire God City located below the sea surface?"

Elder Huo Xing smiled slightly and said, "To be precise, it is within the crater of Fire God Mountain. For our clan, there is nothing closer to us than the sacred mountain. With your strength, dear guest, you should not encounter any problems there, and you'll be able to see it soon."

Tang San was shocked; building a city inside the crater of an active volcano, which was still erupting, was unheard of! Truly, the Huoli Clan was formidable.

Elder Huo Xing continued, "Huoli Clan is the general term for our clan, but in fact, all creatures living within the Magma Red Sea are considered part of the Huoli Clan. Here, everyone coexists peacefully. And we, the people of the Huoli Clan, are the guardians of the entire group. The reason we know about humans is also because the Huoli people and humans look very similar. However, we confirm that there is no kinship between us, which is quite peculiar."

Tang San nodded and said, "The world is so vast and miraculous, that could also be considered fate."

Elder Huo Xing laughed heartily, "Exactly. Dear guest, we are about to arrive."

Unspoken, Tang San had already felt it; the surrounding temperature was extremely high, to the point where the air no longer distorted. The sky was filled with intense, steamy vapors, and the seawater in front was no longer dark red but turned to gold-red, continuously surging upwards, constantly emitting huge jets of hot steam from the center. Undoubtedly, this was the heart of the Magma Red Sea, below the seawater, the volcanic vent of the entire Magma Red Sea.

The boat headed straight towards the foggy sea ahead, and just as it was about to reach that area, suddenly, there was a void in front, the bow plunged downward, and all the Huoli Clansmen were covered by a layer of gold-red halo, as the boat dived straight down at a ninety-degree angle. It seemed as if the sea surface had cracked open, forming a waterfall plunging downwards.

Tang San remained unmoved, his feet firmly nailed to the bottom of the boat, allowing the boat to drop downward while the surrounding scenery became clearer.

What could be seen was that a large amount of seawater was spilling from all directions downwards, rushing into the volcanic vent, bursting out a massive amount of dense fog gushing upwards, and below the sea surface was a giant volcanic vent, where the incoming seawater merged with the magma spewing from within the vent to create those scorching steam clouds.

And around the waterfall-like seawater, layers of gold-red halos continuously surged inward, these peculiar gold-red halos were precisely what maintained the water in such a wondrous state.

As the falling boat neared the molten lava below, a bizarre twist suddenly occurred, and it leveled out again, a gold-red brilliance pulling it through into the waterfall. The gold-red light naturally isolated the seawater, and in the next moment, led by the small boat, Tang San entered a world of gold-red.

It was a cavern, a gold-red cavern, as all the surrounding rock walls were gold-red.

Good heavens, these were all rare metals! Absolutely top-tier fire attribute metals. Even Tang San was momentarily unable to recognize what these metals were. But the richness of the fire elements contained within was absolutely shocking.

Carried by the water, the small boat continued moving further into the cave for about a hundred meters or so, the water flow below gradually lessened, and the boat also came to a stop.

Elder Huo Xing gestured to Tang San with a hand signal, "Dear guest, please follow me." As he spoke, he had already disembarked from the boat.
