Destroying the Will of Heaven
Episode 25 The Oddity of Ancient Sigil
Chu Feng and his team had arrived at the center of the number 40 hunting area. Now in front of them was no longer a forest filled with large and tall trees, but rather a vast lake crater filled with hot springs. The surface of the water was filled with thick steam and a very pungent smell to the nose, this all signified that the three of them had reached the outside of the lava lake that was underground.
“All these volcanoes have underground passageways, let's follow me!” Chu Feng glanced briefly at the crater that contained the source of the hot springs, then headed towards the underground passageway he had seen.
Within the sight range of Chu Feng's two kilometers of life's eyes, there were countless underground passageways that looked like a labyrinth. If others wanted to enter here to gather the red fire lotus, they would most likely be lost. It wasn't even strange if they were trapped within it, it was what made it extremely difficult to take out the red fire lotus in a place like this. However, there was no pressure at all with the eyes of life that belonged to Chu Feng. Everything looks very clear aisle which part is right and wrong.
The moment the three people started to enter the underground that had a lava lake, they instantly felt a hot air coming from beside them. It was as if they had been in a huge oven.
“Remember! if you two find a red fire lotus, 100 percent don't take it with your bare hands. I'm enough to take it! Do you guys understand?” Chu Feng said seriously, he felt no need to explain the dirty things that the Chu family had hidden to the two of them.
“Alright then!” Both of them could hear that Chu Feng's words this time were really serious, so the two of them immediately agreed. At least in their view, without Chu Feng being on this team, perhaps the two of them would not have reached here. With a low cultivation base back then, perhaps the two of them would be killed as soon as they entered the hunting area.
Chu Feng nodded his head, then brought the 2 people heading underground. In a 360-degree field of vision, he could clearly see all of the cave passageways within a kilometer underground.
“Well, the red fire lotus area is right behind this passageway.” Chu Feng stopped in a narrow cave.
“Chu Feng, are you sure this is the right place?” Lei Qing saw the cave in front of him was almost too narrow to allow humans to enter it.
“Do you believe more in your own common sense, or believe in the eyes of my life?” Chu Feng sighed as if why should he ask something that was certain.
Mu Yin looked around for a moment, then she without hesitation slightly stood beside Chu Feng and said, “I choose to trust the eyes of brother Chu Feng!”
“But I ...” Lei Qing said with a sad face while revealing his body shape, “But I cannot enter such a narrow cave, look at my fat body!”
“Ah ..” Chu Feng patted his eel, he was too focused on finding the path with the shortest path towards the red fire lotus. He didn't think of anything about the body parts of his team, he tried to find another way but nothing was as close as this cave pathway.
After comparing the other caves, Chu Feng could only stretch out his hand and say, “This is the closest path to the red fire lotus. If we don't cross this road, we can only turn the road again and it's very dangerous. Trust me, such a fat body can definitely get through it by squeezing it a little.”
After thinking about it for a long time, Lei Qing could only grit his teeth. In the end, he was unwilling to take another path that was much more dangerous than here.
“OK, Mu Yin will walk on the front, I am in the middle, and Lei Qing on the very back!” Chu Feng clapped his hands and gestured for Mu Yin to advance first.
“Why am I at the very end?” Lei Qing asked in confusion.
“That's so you don't get in our way!” Chu Feng could only give an honest explanation while shrugging his shoulders.
Mu Yin could not help it anymore, she slightly laughed as she moved forward towards the narrow cave. He did not dare to look back, as he was sure that Lei Qing was looking at him with a slightly dissatisfied look.
When they entered the cave, the three of them did not expect that the inside was not that narrow. At the very least, Lei Qing did not need to press against his stomach like the driveway before. After several kilometers of walking, the two of them had walked out of the cave passage. They felt that there was something strange after smelling the air filled with the stinging smell of blood on the nose.
After looking 300 hundred meters towards the north, there was a piece of deep red blood that had dried up due to the high temperature and left only a few clumps of corpses scattered about. Looking at the wound on his body, it looked like it was being torn apart by a savage beast.
Mu Yin was so afraid that it made her face so pale, she hid behind Chu Feng and did not dare to look at him again. Lei Qing was also surprised to see the terrifying scene here, he walked up to Chu Feng.
“This seems to be a beast, could there be a more powerful beast in this underground lava lake?” Lei Qing gulped his own saliva, he was a little afraid of seeing the scene in front of him. Looking at the battle area there, perhaps the one who had died was a human with a senior-level cultivation base.
Chu Feng also focused his energy on the eyes of life to see the dangers around, but he still had not discovered anything strange. Even he did not see any signs of a savage beast within his 2 kilometer vision range.
“It seems like there is something terrible here, I don't know if the Chu family doesn't know this or they intentionally let us in as the savage beast's food?” Chu Feng frowned while thinking hard.
He had originally planned to come and gather some red fire lotuses in order to reduce the number of other people's spirit element roots that the red fire lotus would swallow, but he never thought that the things the Chu family was hiding were not as simple as they seemed from the surface.
“Two of you, never leave a distance of more than 5 meters from me. Do you guys understand?” The expression on Chu Feng's face turned a little serious, now he did not want to play around anymore after knowing there was something dangerous.
“Ya!” The two people answered him solemnly, even Mu Yin directly held onto Chu Feng's clothes and did not dare to take them off again.
It did not take long for the three to find the red fire lotus, Chu Feng did not expect that the red fire lotus was emitting a ray of light with an extremely abundant natural spiritual energy.
Chu Feng covered his palm with life energy before approaching him, then he raised his hand to hold the flaming red fire lotus and gently pulled it.
Within a few seconds after touching it, Chu Feng felt the red fire lotus in his hand wanting to grab something on his body. But it was blocked by the life energy in his palm and ended up failing.
“Truely, this thing can actually slash the roots of the spirit element on the human body. Fortunately, I got ready first!” Chu Feng had just wanted to enter the red fire lotus into the storage bag, but he immediately stopped in the middle of the road after sensing that something was strange.
“This is ...” Chu Feng felt clearly that the ancient sigil of the white ouroboros snake that was in the depths of his soul trembled slightly, as if he wanted something.
“Did the ancient sigil of the white ouroboros snake be eager to devour the red fire lotus?” Chu Feng's face was slightly confused with an uncertain tone. Right now, he was less sure what would happen if he ate it.
