The bumps on the ground were moving quickly towards the forest, not showing any signs of stopping, and Grey estimated they will get to the forest within at least eight seconds.
Grey felt a little pressured since he had never tried doing this before, although it would be the same process just like when he created mud, the outcome would be different. If the heat generated from the fire essence is not enough, then he will be unable to form lava.
While everyone was waiting patiently, Grey focused his mind and channeled more of his fire essence into the ground.
Just as the beasts were about to enter the forest, Grey tried to turn the ground into lava. But things unfortunately didn't go as planned.
The ground heated up, before gradually drying up, all the grasses in the area instantly died, but other than that, nothing else happened.
'What's going on, why didn't it work?' Grey's mind went into turmoil.
