Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master novel Chapter 992

After walking a few meters inside the mahogany brown cave, Rocky saw the narrow stone road spiraling downward in twists and turns. From all the way up here, he couldn't see how deep down the road went or where it ended.

Amidst the clouds of steam that rose up from the depths, Rocky walked down along the narrow stone road with Robin. The deeper he ventured into the cave, the hotter it became. Soon, he was drenched with sweat, despite being protected by his spiritual power and having Robin around to cool him down.

It was so hot that he could barely breathe. He frustratedly wiped the sweat off his head. It was obvious that he had underestimated the high temperature in this Fire Wave Mountain. However, since he was already here, he didn't want to go back empty-handed.

Mustering all of his strength, he continued down the road. He felt so hot and uncomfortable that he couldn't even keep proper track of time. He could have been walking for five minutes or for five hours, he did not know. When he finally reached the end of the stone road, he found himself standing on a stretch of flat stone. There were many small holes on the ground. From time to time, magma spurted out of these holes and splashed on the ground, causing steam to rise up.

Across this dangerous stretch of stone lay his destination: a magma lake in the center of the Fire Wave Mountain.

"Let's go." Rocky nodded at Robin. Both of them instantly turned into shadows and dashed toward the other side as soon as they could. However, as if the mountain had sensed their presence, magma began to spurt continuously out of the holes, splashing in all directions.

Robin immediately let out a howl of warning and, at the same time, sent a gigantic claw made of ice to protect Rocky from being burnt by the magma. It then spewed out a stream of cold air to counteract the splashing magma. They sped up their pace and successfully passed through the dangerous stretch of stone, finally arriving at the magma lake.

"I'm afraid it won't be easy to stay here for three days." Rocky felt heat rolling off him the moment he got close to the magma. Even the air here was distorted by the heat waves.

However, he had no other choice. In order to refine the spiritual crystal, he would have to endure this torturous environment.

Without any delay, he took out the spiritual crystal, threw it into the air, and sent it flying above the lake with his spiritual power. Then, he gradually withdrew his spiritual power, letting the crystal descend bit by bit until it reached the surface of the lake.

If he withdrew his spiritual power all at once, the spiritual crystal would fall directly into the lake and be melted by the high temperature. Therefore, he had to maintain his spiritual power such that the spiritual crystal would sit on the surface of the magma lake.

In order to keep the flow of his spiritual power continuous and stable, he took out the Sea Blue Magic Jade to help him. Once everything was in place, he closed his eyes to get some rest and to focus on keeping the spiritual crystal suspended.

Somehow, despite the excruciating environment, Rocky endured for three days and three nights.

Finally, it was time for the spiritual crystal to transform. It rose and shone brightly above the lake, but after a few moments, the light dimmed and disappeared. Then, the crystal grew a hard black shell on the outside before floating over to Rocky.

Holding the crystal in his hand, Rocky examined it carefully. This was the semi-finished product after three days of refining. Whether it could become a completed product depended on the last step.

However, the notebook hadn't given a clear description of the last step, which led Rocky to believe that the author must have encountered an obstacle in the last step and failed to get a completed product.

According to the records in the notebook, waiting for the right time was important to complete the refinement.
