Free Web NovelChapter 1859: Chapter 1859: The Dark River Cavern
Ouyang Qiuhai glanced at Lei Ba and the others, who had suffered heavy losses but were still heading to the Molten Lava Cave, feeling speechless. He really wondered what kind of spell Li Feng had cast on them.
Moreover, it was obvious that Sikong Yu was not planning to give up halfway and go back alone?
"I just hope to really find the Vermilion Bird, otherwise this time I, the young lady, will suffer great losses."
Ouyang Qiuhai held his forehead, obviously compromising; the path he chose, he would walk to the end even if he had to grit his teeth.
Sikong Yu led the people back to the Molten Lava Cave, while Li Feng, who was constantly on their minds, drifted in the magma underground river for a long time before suddenly being pushed upward by a compressive force.
Found the next exit?
Li Feng opened his eyes; this exit was clearly not the previous volcano mouth. He just didn’t know how far it was from the previous location, if only a few kilometers or even a dozen, he might not escape the range of the ant swarm.
After all, with millions of ants scattering, at least several dozen kilometers were under their range.
No matter what, he had to get up and take a look.
After all, drifting in this underground river, who knew what would happen next? If he could find safety above, Li Feng also wanted to escape quickly. After all, his trusted aides were still fleeing; he didn’t know if they had escaped.
After all, the Ant Race’s army was too massive; even a small detachment was a huge threat.
Li Feng let the magma river push him and started floating upward. As he rose, the pressure around him noticeably decreased, allowing him to breathe a sigh of relief.
After a moment more.
Li Feng floated like a balloon on the magma’s surface. He raised his eyes and peered through the protective gang qi, realizing this wasn’t a volcano mouth, as above him wasn’t sky but a sealed cave.
Though he didn’t know what this place was, Li Feng chose to go ashore and explore, directly activating his bloodline, letting wings spread and fly, then skimmed over the magma lake surface landing on a wide area.
This cave was not small; in front was a magma lake at least a square kilometer in size, its firelight illuminating the cave, which was not completely silent.
In the corners of the cave were some luminous moss plants, and the temperature here wasn’t as high as imagined, cooler than the scorching heat above ground, and without the heavy sulfur smell in the air.
Li Feng let his divine sense spread, and discovered some small animals in the cave, showing this molten lava cave wasn’t just hell on the surface.
Underground was indeed another world.
According to Sikong Yu, this molten lava land actually split into upper and lower halves, entering from the molten volcano’s entrance would lead to the Molten Lava Cave, which reportedly connected to a sprawling labyrinth.
Not knowing if this connected to that molten lava cave.
Hmm.
As divine sense spread, Li Feng found this cave wasn’t a closed small chamber; nearby was a passage, so he leaped over and soon arrived at the doorway.
Raising his hand, he lit a fire to illuminate the surroundings, finding some marks at the entrance—left not by small animals, but rather resembling serpentine spiritual beasts.
Li Feng raised his eyes, looking at the cave emitting traces of cold air, straightened up, deciding to enter and investigate.
After all, this molten lava cave, though full of dangers, was also a treasure trove where Ancestor Dragon City people had always come hoping for fortune and opportunities.
Like Zeng Batian, whose fortunes lay here, encountering and consuming an Earth Fire Lotus, greatly boosting strength and attaining the Earth Core Lotus Fire.
While at the Dragon Gate Bathhouse, the Ice and Fire Lotus Li Feng and his group damaged, was also found here.
The harsher, more extreme the place, the more likely heavenly materials and earthly treasures appeared.
Rustle.
Li Feng suddenly heard friction beneath him, accompanied by hissing, raising his hand to toss his fire forward, instantly revealing countless glowing red fire snakes staring at him.
Hiss.
Li Feng took a slight breath; most of these fire snakes were one or two meters long, not strong but overwhelming in numbers, enough to make anyone with a phobia feel considerably uncomfortable.
Though not enemies, Li Feng being here was considered an intruder, causing the fire snakes to swarm at him; watching the countless gaping snake mouths, Li Feng pulled out the King Sword, swinging it casually.
The domineering sword qi instantly slashed across, cutting countless fire snakes in half, yet the severed snakes continued to wriggle, making the scene exceptionally unsettling.
Li Feng frowned slightly, releasing Golden Core Power around him, resembling a flame cloak for protection, then stepped forward, incinerating the fire snakes to ashes.
Despite their numbers, these fire snakes lacked strength; even a Qi Refinement Realm cultivator could kill thousands, as long as not entangled by them.
Pushing through the cave without obstacle, Li Feng increasingly felt the cave’s frigidity, starkly contrasting the magma lake’s heat, with a faint chill creeping in.
The tunnel was only several hundred meters long; Li Feng quickly reached its end, noticing frost and ice crystals already forming on the cave’s sides.
Given this bizarre environment, Li Feng knew there must be heavenly materials and earthly treasures ahead.
Exiting the natural tunnel, Li Feng stepped into another cave, smaller than before.
At the center lay a small lake perhaps several hundred square meters in size, albeit cold and misty—a true ice lake.
The cave was almost a frozen world, huge ice formations reflecting shadows, starkly contrasting the sizzling molten lava land outside.
And within the ice lake, bloomed an utterly pure snow-white ice lotus, its petals resembling crystal glass.
Li Feng didn’t know what heavenly material or earthly treasure this ice lotus was, but from its appearance alone, it appeared extraordinary; not to mention, its presence altering the surrounding environment, it was clearly no ordinary treasure.
However, where heavenly materials and earthly treasures existed, accompanying spiritual beasts would naturally be present, as treasures attracted beasts, since not only humans cultivated with them—spiritual beasts did as well.
Just as expected.
Li Feng stepped into the cave, marveling at the ice lotus’s wonder, suddenly noticed ripples on the ice lake as a giant snake head emerged from the surface.
This snake, with its white scales, had an unknown length, but its massive body required at least a person’s embrace.
Rustle.
The white snake surfaced, looking down at the intruder Li Feng, hissing.
"Begone, human, or I won’t mind having a bite for a snack."
