Using his Soul Power to probe ahead, Gu He was always able to find the correct path and charge straight toward the end of the passage, no matter how crisscrossed the tunnels below were or how many intersections they had.
Seeing the faintly visible fiery-red world ahead, Gu He slowed down, descended from the air, and landed at the end of the passage.
As he looked upon the magma world before him, Gu He's eyes were filled with curiosity.
Within the enormous cavern, fiery-red magma flowed slowly, radiating scorching heat without restraint. The terrifying heat waves warped the air. The magma world was vast, stretching nearly beyond sight.
Here, Gu He covered the surface of his body with a layer of battle qi. Such temperatures would not injure him, but they would still make him uncomfortable.
Looking into the magma, Gu He knew that a Fourth-tier Two-headed Fire Spirit Snake lived within. However, killing it would only yield a Fourth-tier Magic Core. It would be better to return and subdue it after Qing Lin had become proficient with the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils.
The Heavenly Flame lay beneath the magma. Gu He layered energy over his body, then plunged toward the fiery-red magma.
"Splash..." His body shot down into the magma, sending fiery-red molten waves scattering in every direction.
Gu He sensed his battle qi being consumed faster and knew this was normal. The terrifying heat of the magma was burning away at the protective energy around him.
Gu He continued drilling deeper into the magma. The dangers within this fiery-red world were far greater than those at the bottom of the sea. Not only was there terrifying heat, there were also magma undercurrents. Occasionally, an exceptionally violent current would surge out from the earth veins or somewhere else.
