Chapter 968
Shui Yanyu looked soft on the outside, but was tough on the inside .
She looked as lovely as water, but once she had made her decision, she would definitely be determined and would not be swayed .
Since Shui Yanyu wanted to go with Ling Han into the Flame Cave, Hu Feiyun would naturally not dare to stay outside alone . So, in the end, it was still the three of them going in together, and they headed towards the cave .
Hong, a surge of flames would occasionally burst out of the ground, exuding a frightening wave of heat .
This occurred without any semblance of regularity, so it was impossible to predict and avoid ahead of time . Furthermore, if one was unfortunate enough to take a step right when the flames burst out, they could only evade . If they could not, they would have to depend on their own abilities to bear the flames head on .
The might of the flames was extraordinary . For example, if Shui Yanyu was hit, her beautiful face would turn pale . Hu Feiyun, on the other hand, had extremely fast reaction speed . The moment that there was unusual movement underground, she would have already quickly shot up; even Ling Han considered his own reaction speed slower than hers .
They entered into the cave . They could hear deep growls of beasts occasionally ring out inside the cave, but it was very difficult to tell which direction they had originated from .
"Upon a closer look, there could be Mountain River Stones in every corner here . However, they may not be of the Fire Element; those can only be found in the innermost depths of the cave," Shui Yanyu said . Although she had come here once, her cultivation level 10 years ago was really too low, so she had not entered into the Flame Cave .
"It would be fine as long as they were Mountain River Stones . " Ling Han had already had a taste of them—they could really make the cultivation level of a cultivator soar . Even if he had to spend several years to stabilize his cultivation level in return, he would still be able to save a very, very great amount of time .
"You think they're something that can be picked up anywhere?" Shui Yanyu rolled her eyes . She seemed to have found enjoyment in bickering with Ling Han .
Ling Han smiled faintly, but did not start bickering with her . Firstly, because they were in a dangerous situation, after all, and secondly, he was more willing to use his mouth rather than words to shut her up .
This cave was very big . Its height reached more than 30 meters, and walking inside would give one a feeling of emptiness . There were stalagmites protruding from the ground—each was bright red, and there were some that were still dripping lava . They were a very magnificent sight .
There were paths stretching out in all directions, with innumerable forks along them . These forked paths were slightly smaller, but they were still six to nine meters tall, and were still very amazing .
Because the dangers of this place were not at such a controllable level as the Crimson Lake, there were obviously fewer cultivators who had made their way here—at least the trio had walked for quite a while, but had yet to spot any person . Another reason was because this place was too big . Even if several hundred people came here at the same time, the moment they separated, it would be very difficult to reunite .
One had to 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 coming from up ahead . Ling Han and his companions became alert; Hu Feiyun even gripped onto the corner of Shui Yanyu's sleeve, her expression saying 'if there's danger, you'll help me block it' .
Very soon, a red shadow appeared in front of them .
It was a very large Demonic Beast, its height close to three meters . It was completely crimson, and its skin was like lava . This monster was incredibly hideous: it did not have any neck at all, and merely had a squarish body from which there was a head sticking out . Its four legs were thick and short, making it look a little like a tortoise, but it did not have a tail .
It looked at Ling Han and his companions, and its large mouth split open . Drool dripped from its mouth, but its saliva was actually bright red lava . The moment the drops of saliva dropped onto the ground, a sizzling sound was heard .
"This is a Lava Beast?" Ling Han asked .
"Probably . " Shui Yanyu nodded . In truth, she had not seen one herself, either, but there were no other types of Demonic Beasts here .
"So ugly," Hu Feiyun said quietly as if she was afraid that the Demonic Beast would hear her .
"It's fine . The Demonic Beasts here do not seem to have awakened their intelligence, so they can't understand human words at all," Ling Han said, smiling . Even if its intelligence had awakened, it would have to learn human language first before it could decipher the words of humans .
Of course, if it used divine sense to transfer a message, then it could skip over the language barrier .
