He walked over to the campfire and sat down, taking out a flask of water and drinking a few mouthfuls.
Then he took out some dried provisions and began chewing, his movements natural and flawless.
Yet the vigilance in Dong Lin's heart did not lessen.
He secretly transmitted his voice to Su Yu, Gu Chen, and the others:
"This man's origins are suspicious. Stay alert."
Gu Chen and the others nodded slightly.
After finishing his provisions, Li Huan wiped his mouth and smiled.
"Senior Brother Dong Lin, your Heaven Sect truly has talents in abundance.
You can lead a team to explore such a secret realm while still in the Foundation Establishment Realm.
May I ask what your main objective is this time?"
"I cannot disclose that."
Dong Lin answered blandly.
"Since Fellow Daoist Li is a disciple of the Divine Sword Sect, do you know anything about this place?"
"A little."
Li Huan said,
"I have been exploring this place for several days and discovered that the deeper one goes into this secret realm,
the denser the Thunder Spiritual Qi becomes, and the stronger the demon beasts are.
At the deepest point lies a pool of thunder magma. There seems to be Thunder Source Essence within it,
but a Third Rank Thunder Flood Dragon guards it. I did not dare approach."
"Thunder Source Essence?"
Everyone's eyes lit up.
Yet Dong Lin asked,
"Fellow Daoist Li, you came this deep alone
and even escaped from the vicinity of a Third Rank Thunder Flood Dragon. Your strength is impressive indeed."
Li Huan's expression did not change.
"Pure luck. That Thunder Flood Dragon spends most of its time sleeping at the bottom of the pool.
I merely took one look from afar and did not dare disturb it."
The explanation was reasonable
