The falling time was only a short moment, and Xiao Yan and Yun Zhi stepped on the huge rubble left behind by the rock collapse.
"—Here we are."
Xiao Yan took a deep breath and murmured in a voice that only he could hear.
Seeing darkness in front of him, he subconsciously took out the Moonlight Stone in his arms and looked at Yun Zhi beside him, who was holding his breath.
"What's wrong?"
Yun Zhi felt the airflow hidden deep in the mountains, but found that this was not a sealed area, and there was a slightly hot airflow coming from deeper, which made her feel chilled.
"This is not the dead end I thought it was at first."
Yun Zhi shook his head slightly and then explained.
"There is still air current deeper here, and it is hot... It seems..."
Yun Zhi hesitated to speak and just looked at Xiao Yan silently. There is no need to say more about what he meant.
"It's where Heavenly Flames is, is that what you mean?"
Xiao Yan exhaled slightly and adjusted his mood a little.
"Then let's go."
Through the refined beast spirit, Xiao Yan's perception of that Heavenly Flames flower became stronger.
After arriving here, even without using the animal spirit, just with the alchemist's keen soul insight, he could vaguely feel the fluctuations that only Heavenly Flames could release.
It's like the ripples caused by a fish jumping out of the water in a dead lake.
He and Yun Zhi jumped off the collapsing gravel and landed on a flatter ground. If nothing else happened, this was the original ground of this secret realm that never saw the light of day.
Along the gentle slopes and roads that gradually extend downward from the ground, Xiao Yan holds Moonlight Stone high, illuminating the gray-white rock walls on both sides, reflecting more light, and completely illuminating the originally dark cave.
In front of Yun Zhi, he stopped slightly, as if waiting for Yun Zhi to follow.
"What's wrong, Yun Zhi?"
Xiao Yan asked.
"... It's nothing, I'm just curious. I don't know how many years have been spent in this huge cave deep in the Magical Beast Mountain Range."
Yun Zhi shook his head slightly and then said.
"The formation of Heavenly Flames is originally the creation of heaven and earth, and cannot be solved. Time has lost its meaning for such existences."
Xiao Yan sighed about the good fortune of heaven and earth, and continued to lead Yun Zhi forward.
The further you go, the originally spacious Cave Hall becomes more and more cramped, and finally it shrinks and turns into a narrow tunnel.
And for some reason, the further forward you go, you can feel a wave of heat hitting your face.
The chill that had dissipated in this deep cave from the beginning became even hotter and hotter.
It's just that Xiao Yan and Yun Zhi both know what is waiting for them at the end of the cave, so all this heat has become a matter of course.
After they had walked for about a stick of incense, a dim yellow light emerged from the narrow cave that could only be passed by one person. Xiao Yan was overjoyed, and then he and Yun Zhi accelerated their pace.
When they finally passed through the narrow opening in front of them, everything suddenly became clear.
In front of you is a huge Cave Hall that is about dozens of feet tall and can be seen as far as the eye can see. The top of the Cave Hall is a fireball like a small sun, emitting a dim yellow light like the setting sun.
With just a fleeting glance, Xiao Yan was attracted by the dim yellow flames and subconsciously wanted to walk out of the cave.
However, before he could take action, he was grabbed by Yun Zhi behind him.
"Yao Yan, don't act rashly."
When Xiao Yan cast a doubtful look, Yun Zhi pursed his lips. Xiao Yan turned around and saw countless illusory lights and shadows surrounding the dim yellow flame.
Xiao Yan narrowed his eyes slightly, and then his pupils shrank slightly.
Whether it was the beast spirit he had refined or what he had seen with his own eyes, the phantoms surrounding the dim yellow flame seemed to be guarding it. Without exception, they were all beast spirits.
Those beast spirits sometimes turned into light and shadow, coiled around the dim flames, and sometimes revealed their original forms of monsters, strutting about in this underground space with unusual airs.
"The fireball in the center is Ten Thousand Beast Spirit Fire."
Although I have never seen the mysterious and abnormal flames in Strange Fire Ranking before, I still have the vision of Yao Lao that controls Dou Qi Continent.
"Ten Thousand Beast Spirit Fire..."
Xiao Yan couldn't help but murmur to himself, "But, how to get it?"
"I'll go."
Yun Zhi didn't think too much, just gently held Xiao Yan's hand and said seriously.
She actually knew that based on her own Dou Emperor's strength, Gama Empire could indeed be regarded as a top-notch combat power, but if she wanted to obtain Heavenly Flames, I'm afraid it wasn't that simple.
Yun Zhi naturally knew this in her heart, so her move was not so much to capture Heavenly Flames as to personally feed him.
She also saw that Yao Yan didn't know much about Ten Thousand Beast Spirit Fire, and she could be said to know nothing about it. It was not yet clear what kind of power Heavenly Flames had.
No matter how many ways to test, they are all too cumbersome and cumbersome. Nothing can be as straightforward as her stepping forward to fight.
Hearing Yun Zhi's voice, Xiao Yan was slightly startled, but still shook his head. "No, Heavenly Flames is too dangerous. I can't let you take risks like this alone."
"But you have no other choice, right?"
Yun Zhi choked Xiao Yan with a rhetorical question.
"No test is as direct and quick as me calling you directly. Don't worry, I'm just testing it out and trying my best. It'll be fine. If something goes wrong, I'll withdraw immediately. How about that?"
Xiao Yan's eyes flashed with hesitation, and he didn't know what to say.
"Just let her go, Xiao Yan, I'm watching from here. If something goes wrong, just remind her to get out in time."
The voice of Yao Lao rang in my ears.
Xiao Yan's eyes flashed with a trace of struggle, and finally he sighed.
"Okay... I owe you this, so be careful."
Yun Zhi had an intoxicating smile on his face, and then gently released his hold on Xiao Yan.
"... You owe me? Then I will remember it. Don't go back on what you said yourself?"
She took a few steps back slightly, then looked at the complex and unwilling expression on the young man's face in the dim light of the fire outside the cave entrance.
She was in a good mood. She was rescued by this guy and got Violet Spirit Crystal for herself... All in all, she accepted his love.
It's just that Yun Zhi certainly doesn't want to owe him too much.
She wanted him to owe her something.
It would be best if you owe it until you can repay it in your lifetime.
