The space was inconceivably bright for an underground world and far hotter than anything one could have found on the surface.

From where he stood, Dyon could see numerous whirlpools of lava that told him there might have been several holes beneath them.

Above him, there were countless waterfalls of lava that spewed outward, constantly replenishing the lost molten rock that whirled down to what must have been a lower level.

The world was more massive than even the surface bubble world. It wasn't that it was a warp of space, but rather that it had so many levels that the surface areas couldn't even be compared.

'There's a source to all this heat hidden somewhere. If I can find it and break it down into its fundamental runes, my strength will increase by another measure. After I'm done with it, I can probably use it to enter the body facet…'

Dyon could still not currently be considered an Overlord despite the fact his strength was beyond even normal Immortal Essence Realm experts after restructuring himself. However, it simultaneously made reaching the Overlord Realm even that much more difficult for him..

That said, he did have a plan, though. Well, he didn't have much of a plan for his soul which seemed to not follow any laws of logic. However, he wasn't very worried about his soul. As things stood now, his soul was still far beyond anything his qi and body could compare to.

However, what he did have was a plan for his qi and body.

His qi was the most straight forward. He wanted to find and collect the highest grade qis in existence, slowly examine them, break them down to their fundamental runes, and take them for his own. He was already capable of doing this for all mortal grade qis, he simply had to deepen his comprehension of immortal grade qis to start slowly taking control of them.

As he added more powerful qis to his repertoire, he would naturally be able to use them at will without the consent of the Heavens, and thus grow far more powerful.

Over the last few days, he had already begun analyzing the fundamental runes of this bubble world. Comprehending Immortal grade qis was more difficult than he had thought. If he discarded the other facets of his world he had come to understand and focused just on his current comprehension of conventional Immortal Essence, he hadn't even reached 1% in his understanding.

That said… He had only been here for a little over a week. His progress was still blazing quick.

His second plan was related to his body. When he thought of using Ri's body as a furnace and concocting a pill within her, something clicked with him. He knew he could take this a step further and pioneer an unprecedented field in alchemy.

If he refined his body just as he refined a pill, reforming and improving each individual cell as he saw fit, just what kind of result would he have?

However, in order to do this, Dyon needed resources, a massive amount of them, in fact. The higher the grade, the better. And whatever it was that was turning this world of ice and snow into a fiery hell definitely fit that description.

In fact, whatever it was would be enough to shake the core of anyone who stood here. Yet, Dyon felt that it was only enough to help him reach the Overlord realm. It was clear how daunting his path was.

"Did you figure out what this place is yet?" Lilith's voice drifted into his mind.

"Weren't you ignoring me to cultivate?" Dyon teased.

"I'm bored of that." Lilith said shamelessly. "Quickly, tell me."

Saru giggled lightly, seemingly prodding Dyon along too.

"This place should have been purposely put here like I thought. The Dark Flame World has probably been coming here every time it erupts and they're probably aware that there's some kind of secret, but unfortunately for them, every time an eruption happens, a different vein is influenced, so the mapping they completed during the previous eruption might very well be useless if the new entry point doesn't overlap.

"Because this underground world is not only as large as the bubble world above us, but also has several layers of equal size, it's impossible to tell where a vein will lead you. So, they've probably been blindly coming here and mapping what they could before leaving."

"Why don't they come when there's no eruption?" Saru asked.

"From what I can tell, those empty tunnels only appear during an eruption. It's ironically both the safest and most dangerous time. During non-eruption periods, the lava is more evenly spread instead of some veins being under high pressure and others being at low. So, if one wanted to enter during them, you'd have to directly enter the lava itself."

"But what if we don't get lucky this time, then?"

Dyon grinned. "Luck? I don't need it. They don't dare enter the lava because they have no idea how hot it can get and how long they'll have to stay in it before they have to take another break. But… I don't have that problem."

Dyon's body flashed with a surge of energy. Without him even properly circulating the technique, [Titan Diamond Body] activated. If Dyon so chose, he could completely rename the technique because it was entirely his own now.

Without hesitation, he dove into the lava head first.

It wasn't until three days later he exited at his destination, finding something that made him grin wildly.

The space wasn't even remotely hot. In fact, it was could either. A gentle spring's breeze ċȧrėssed Dyon's cheeks as though there wasn't an entire layered purgatory of lava above.
