The Divine Dao Alchemy Emperor
Chapter 968
Shui Yanyu looked gentle on the outside, but tough on the inside.
She looked as beautiful as water, but once she made her decision, she would definitely be determined and would not be swayed.
Since Shui Yanyu wanted to go with Ling Han to the Fire Cave, Hu Feiyun would naturally not dare to stay outside alone. So, in the end, it was still the three of them who left together, and they headed for the cave.
Hong, the occasional wave of fire would come out from the ground, emitting terrifying heat waves.
This happens without regular resemblance, so it is impossible to predict and avoid beforehand. Moreover, if one was unfortunate enough to take a step right when the flames erupted, they could only dodge. If they could not, they would have to rely on their own ability to endure the flames directly.
The power of fire is incredible. For example, if Shui Yanyu was hit, her pretty face would pale. Hu Feiyun, on the other hand, had an extremely fast reaction speed. When there was an unusual underground movement, he would quickly be lifted up; even Ling Han considered his own reaction speed to be slower than his.
They went into the cave. They could hear the growls of ferocious beasts that sometimes sounded inside the cave, but it was extremely difficult to determine where they came from.
"After a closer look, there might be Mountain River Stones in every corner here. However, they may not be from the Fire Element; it can only be found in the deepest depths of the cave, ” Shui Yanyu said. Even though he had come here once, his cultivation level 10 years ago was really too low, so he had yet to enter the Fire Cave.
"This will be fine as long as they are the Mountain River Stone." Ling Han already felt it — they could actually make the cultivation level of a cultivator soar. Even if he had to spend several years to stabilize his cultivation level in return, he could still save a very, very large amount of time.
"You think it's something you can take anywhere?" Shui Yanyu rolled his eyes. He seemed to have found pleasure in the quarrel with Ling Han.
Ling Han smiled faintly, but did not start fighting with him. First, because they were in a dangerous situation, after all, and second, he was more willing to use his mouth than words to silence him.
This cave is huge. Its height reached over 30 meters, and walking inside would give a feeling of emptiness. There are stalagmites protruding from the ground — each bright red, and there are some that are still dripping lava.
They are very beautiful sights.
There were footpaths stretching out in all directions, with countless forks along them. This branching path was slightly smaller, but it was still six to nine meters high, and it was still very amazing.
Since the danger of this place was not at a controllable level like Crimson Lake, there were obviously fewer cultivators who had made their way here — at least the trio had walked for quite a while, but haven't seen anyone. Another reason is because this place is too big. Even if several hundred people came here at the same time, by the time they separated, it would be very difficult to reunite.
One must know that the total number that had entered the Mystery Realm was no more than 2000 people.
Pa, pa, pa. A strange sound was heard from the front. Ling Han and his companions became wary; hu Feiyun even grasped the tip of Shui Yanyu's arm, his expression saying 'if there is any danger, you will help me block it'.
Immediately, a red shadow appeared in front of them.
It was an enormous Demon Beast, nearly three meters tall. It was completely deep red, and its skin was like lava. This monster was extremely terrifying: it had no neck at all, and only had a squared body from which there was a head sticking out. Its four legs were thick and short, making it seem a little like a turtle, but it did not have a tail.
It looked at Ling Han and his companions, and its huge mouth opened. Saliva dripped from his mouth, but his saliva was actually bright red lava. As the droplets of saliva fell to the ground, a hissing sound was heard. "This is the Lava Beast?" Ask Ling Han.
"Maybe." Shui Yanyu nodded. In fact, he had never seen it either, but there was no other type of Demon Beast here.
'Very ugly,' Hu Feiyun said softly as if he was afraid that the Demonic Beasts would hear him.
"It's okay. The Demon Beast here did not seem to awaken their intelligence, so they were unable to comprehend the human words at all, "said Ling Han, smiling. Even if his intelligence had been awakened, he would have to learn human language first before being able to decipher human words.
Of course, if it used heavenly sense to transfer messages, then it could cross the language barrier.
"Let me!" Shui Yanyu stepped out, sword in hand. He was the type who wanted to be first; previously, Ling Han was the one who bore all the dangers they faced, so he felt quite suffocated. Now, this Lava Beast was only at the late stage of the low extreme, so he naturally wanted to give it a try.
Pu's. The mouth of the Lava Beast spewed out a fierce flame, which instantly raised the temperature around it.
Shui Yanyu did not receive a direct attack. Instead, he harnessed his agility to twist to the side, and swung his sword, releasing a quick stab.
The reaction of the Lava Beast was rather slow. It was suddenly pierced by a sword, but its defense was quite amazing — that sword could only penetrate about an inch or so. Given his colossal body, this was still very far from his vital points.
Feeling the pain, the Demon Beast was furious. It continued roaring, and relentlessly charged towards Shui Yanyu.
The Demon Monsters here are indeed a little stupid. They fought completely based on instinct. Thus, even with its thick and tough skin, along with the power of the flame, it did not manage to become superior at all. Instead, Shui Yanyu managed to take advantage of it several times with attacks here and there, and his blood continued to gush out like fierce flames.
“Good strike! What a good strike! ”Meanwhile, Hu Feiyun cheered on Shui Yanyu from the sidelines, but did not forget to hide behind Ling Han. He stuck his head out, waving his hands happily.
"Pick up!" Right at this moment, they saw another Lava Beast appear, this time behind the trio. After releasing a roar, he started biting Hu Feiyun. Who asked him to be the closest?
Hu Feiyun's reaction was something to worry about. He really stood there stupidly without a reaction. However, Ling Han was not him. His right hand clenched and shot; he did not bother to use any techniques, and only used his brute strength to emerge victorious.
Peng, his current strength is really too strong. One punch, and the Lava Beast could not bear it at all despite its strong physique. It instantly exploded from the impact.
"Aah!" Only now did Hu Feiyun exclaimed in shock, and patted his chest repeatedly as he said, "Making me afraid of death! It really scared me to death! ”
Ling Han looked around for a while. All Demon Beasts possessed Spiritual Flesh, and this Lava Beast was no exception. Spiritual Flesh was only the size of a little finger. It was slightly red, but the main part was still white. It was like a beautiful piece of jade that was only dyed with a red hue.
"Sir Shui, go!" Hu Feiyun started cheering for Shui Yanyu again. The enemies were both Lava Beasts, and while Ling Han managed to turn one into pieces with just a punch, Shui Yanyu was in a protracted battle. The difference is huge.
Ling Han did not interfere. Instead, he stood to the side. This was a form of her respect for Shui Yanyu.
After a long time, Shui Yanyu finally finished off this Demon Beast, and dug out a piece of Spiritual Flesh.
He shook his head, and said, "I'll hand the Demon Beast over to you later."
"Why?" Ling Han asked, smiling.
"I'm just wasting your time" he said with a sigh. “You don't need to comfort me; I know my own abilities! ”
Ling Han smiled. This beauty was eager to appear, but not the type that depended blindly on her pride, which was something she deeply admired. "Then let's continue!"
The three continued their advance, and searched around the cave for more than four hours. They dealt with over a dozen Lava Beasts, and obtained a lot of Spiritual Flesh. Furthermore, Shui Yanyu had a burst of luck, and actually found the Mountain River Stone in a crack in the wall.
"The nest of the Lava Beast must be in the front. It seemed that there was faintly a terrifying aura of intimidation spreading from within. "Shui Yanyu pointed forward with a finger, and asked," Are you really going to take the risk? "
Ling Han nodded, and said, “I won't force myself. However, going in to steal the Mountain River Stone would probably shock that huge monster. It's not safe for both of you to be here; get out right away.
Shui Yanyu pondered for a moment, and then said, “Alright. You must be careful!"
