Climbing the Holy Mountain came with an unwritten rule, no retreat, as retreating meant failure. Therefore, Tang San could not step back down from this second tier.
With a thought flashing through his mind, Tang San made his move. Vines burst out from within his body, quickly forming a shield in front of him, using the lower-tier Bluesilver Emperor to block the searing molten lava while he retracted the Lion Tiger Golden Gang.
Strangely enough, once the Bluesilver Emperor, with at most a third level bloodline, emerged, the originally intense temperature of the molten lava noticeably dropped. Although the Bluesilver Emperor was instantly scorched to a charred state, both the temperature of the air and the lava itself showed a significant downward trend. The resistance seemed much easier now.
