() The third floor of Fire Dragon Cave, Purgatory Maze.
The Fire Dragon Cave is one of the three most dangerous places owned by the Tiancheng Sword Sect, and it is also the underground space with the greatest value. Every year, thousands of disciples go down to the cave to practice, mine, and hunt, contributing a steady stream of wealth to the sect.
However, the vast majority of Sword Sect disciples only go deep into the second level of the Black Hell Forest. The third level of the Purgatory Labyrinth is a place where they are in awe. Many disciples who rely on their powerful martial arts skills and swordsmanship never come back after going down, including
A strong man who has reached the realm of Huagang.
Legend has it that in the deepest part of the Purgatory Labyrinth, there lurk top-level monsters that can rival powerful supernatural beings!
And this is only the middle level of the Fire Dragon Cave, the lowest level of the Abyss Flame Cave. Over the past thousands of years, only a few powerful men from the Tiancheng Sword Sect have ever broken into it, and one of them even died inside.
For Qin Yun, who has just entered the realm of transformation, the Purgatory Labyrinth is already an extremely dangerous place.
No one can tell how big the Purgatory Labyrinth is. Due to the existence of the Earth Fire Fountain and the Flame River, the crust in the depths of the Fire Dragon Cave changes extremely frequently, and the topography may change at any time, so there is no usable
map. ..
On the surface, the Purgatory Labyrinth is an underground space composed of huge volcanic tunnels. The tunnels extending in all directions are filled with caves and flaming springs. The flaming air is filled with a strong smell of sulfur. You can see rushing rivers and streams everywhere.
A flaming lake filled with bubbles.
But the Purgatory Labyrinth is definitely not a restricted area for life. Not only are there plants and herbs that can adapt to the high temperature and flames, but there are also countless powerful monsters lurking in the Cave Flame River. No matter who dares to break into their territory, they will definitely be attacked.
The most ferocious attack!
Qin Yun spent half a day and finally penetrated deep into the Purgatory Labyrinth from the ground.
His entire body, including his limbs and head, was covered with a translucent, red power barrier that looked like armor pieces simply put together.
This is the Zhen Gang armor unique to those who are strong in Hua Gang. However, Qin Yun's current cultivation level is not high and he has not yet reached the stage of possessing Hua Gang armor, so it looks very rough and crude on the surface.
But this layer of protection possesses far more power than the body-protecting Qi!
Qin Yun spent most of his sect's contribution on this, and obtained a secret book of Qian Yang Zhen Gang from Tianji Palace. After three days of hard practice behind closed doors and the help of Qiankun Great World, he initially mastered this book.
A method to condense the True Gang Armor.
Qian Yang Zhen Gang is one of the five secret techniques of Hua Gang in the Tiancheng Sword Sect. It is said that after practicing to the highest level, the Zhen Gang armor condensed can withstand a blow from a powerful person with supernatural powers, and completely ignores the attack of an innate master!
If Qin Yun hadn't won the Xihai Martial Arts Tournament championship for the sect, with his status and seniority in the Sword Sect, no matter how much contribution he made to the sect, he would not be able to obtain this mental secret skill.
Under the protection of Qian Yang Zhen Gang's armor, all the poisonous smoke and poisons dispersed in the maze were filtered out, but the ubiquitous fire power in the Fire Dragon Cave was able to penetrate and be continuously absorbed by Qin Yun.
The fire power in the Purgatory Labyrinth is several times stronger than that of the second level of the Black Hell Forest. People with inferior strength simply cannot gain a foothold here, and may even be roasted alive into dried meat!
However, Qin Yun can rely on the mental secret of the sixth level of the Nine Yang Divine Art to absorb the invading fire power and condense it into the Xianyang True Gang to maintain the Qianyang True Gang armor. Then he can practice in the purgatory maze for a long time.
Despite this, when Qin Yun walked in the huge fire rock tunnel of the Purgatory Labyrinth, he still walked on thin ice and was extremely cautious. At the same time, he also activated the spiritual sense of the universe to deal with sudden attacks by monsters at any time.
The large and small caves on the surrounding rock walls are natural lairs for monsters.
However, he explored all the way and walked for at least a few miles. When he stood at the fork at the end of the tunnel, he did not encounter any danger. All the terrifying monsters in the rumors seemed to have disappeared.
Qin Yun collected a lot of medicinal herbs on the road, and the spiritual herbs that can grow here are often of high quality. Before he went down to the Fire Dragon Cave, he took on seven or eight sect missions, half of which were collection missions.
However, Qin Yun encountered a small problem in front of him: should he go left or right.
Since there is no map for reference, exploring the Purgatory Labyrinth is entirely dependent on luck. There are branch roads everywhere, and no one knows which one leads to where, so any choice may be right or wrong. It depends entirely on your luck.
Depends on the luck of the explorer.
If you are lucky and make the right choice, you may be able to find extremely rare spiritual grass or jade. If you are unlucky and encounter a powerful monster, it is normal for you to die without any bones left.
Qin Yun just hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward and walked into the tunnel on the right.
The fire power in this tunnel seems to be even more intense. The ground is covered with thick rock powder and fire sand. It creaks when you step on it, and the flowing sand can easily submerge the insteps.
After walking about forty or fifty steps forward, Qin Yun suddenly felt excited and looked up.
Immediately, he made a discovery. On the top of the rock more than ten feet high, there were shining lights as dense as stars. Although all the lights were very weak and dim, they could not escape Qin Yun's sharp eyes.
.
Fire jade!
Qin Yun was immediately overjoyed. He had been to the Fire Dragon Cave not once or twice. Of course, he was very familiar with the most precious products in the cave. These starlights were all refracted by the exposed jade body of the spiritual jade ore, and there were hundreds or thousands of them!
Qin Yun does not attach much importance to external objects such as Ling Jade and Ling Dan, but now his interest in Ling Jade is far more than before, because it is entrenched in the sea of consciousness and evolved from the Qiankun Sky-Mending Stone.
The formed nuclear source requires endless energy to replenish and restore.
According to the star spirit who controls the nuclear source, the nuclear source has only restored a very small part of its energy so far, and if he uses his magical powers or wants to get help from the star spirits, he will need to consume nuclear source energy.
The source of nuclear energy can be the innate true power he cultivates, or evil fire, but the best and most stable source is definitely spiritual jade, especially high-grade spiritual jade.
Qin Yun's originally abundant spiritual jade reserve was almost completely filled into this bottomless pit, but it was still far from being able to meet the requirements of the star spirits. In addition to quickly improving his realm and cultivation level, he went to the Fire Dragon Cave to experience.
On the one hand, it is also to find the Fire Spirit Jade.
I didn't expect to be so lucky. I made a discovery when I descended into the Purgatory Labyrinth for the first time.
You must know that the location of these Fire Spirit Jade Mines is very special. Most people will pay careful attention to the left and right when they come here. Unless they are attacked by flying monsters, they will not look up.
Although it is difficult to collect these fire jade hidden on the top wall more than ten feet high, it is not difficult for Qin Yun.
He carefully observed the surrounding environment, took a few steps to the right, and suddenly jumped high. When the whole body reached the top of the jump, his right foot suddenly stepped on a protruding rock like lightning.
, using his strength to turn his body and throw himself towards the cave wall on the left.
Just as he was about to hit the stone wall, Qin Yun's left foot had already hit the rock first, then rose up again and flew back to the right.
In this way, with the help of the uneven fire rocks on the left and right walls, Qin Yun reached the top of the cave more than ten feet high in an instant. The claws of his left hand reached up like lightning and thrust into the dark red rock!
The five fingers imbued with the power of the innate power were comparable to magical weapons, and they pierced through the hard and hot flaming rock. Qin Yun slightly tightened his fingers, and the whole figure hung like a gibbon on the ceiling of the cave.
Qin Yun had already identified the location in advance. There were pieces of jade ore inlaid on the surrounding rock walls. He could calmly grab the jade ore with his right hand and store it in the universe space.
For a moment, gravel and dust rustled down, and pieces of high-quality spiritual jade were collected by Qin Yun.
After all the places within reach were dug out, Qin Yun stretched out his right hand and inserted it into the cave wall, then replaced his left hand to continue collecting, ensuring that no precious piece of spiritual jade would slip through the net.
Not long after, Qin Yun collected hundreds of pieces of spiritual jade.
Squeak!
Just when he was mining happily and contentedly, two sharp screams suddenly came from the front, and a black shadow flew toward his location like lightning!
Qin Yun immediately woke up, stopped collecting and immediately prepared for battle.
What flew over was a huge bat with wings spread over five feet. Its body was covered with dark red scales, its ugly toad-like head had its fangs exposed, and a pair of scarlet eyes revealed a fierce look!
What's special is that when its wings are waving, there is a faint light of fire, and countless fire spots shake off from the tips of the wings, gliding in the air and leaving a long flame trail.
Labyrinth Fire Bat! Qin Yun immediately recognized its origin and was slightly surprised.
The labyrinth fire bat is a mid-level monster. It is not difficult to kill it with Qin Yun's current strength. But the trouble is that the labyrinth fire bat is a gregarious monster. The appearance of a fire bat means that there are dozens more behind it.
Hundreds of the same kind!
One labyrinth fire bat is easy to deal with, but hundreds of them are definitely formidable enemies!
Squeak!
When the Labyrinth Fire Bat rushed into a place twenty steps away from Qin Yun, its mouth suddenly opened and sent out a fierce sound wave impact towards Qin Yun.
The surrounding air suddenly shook violently, ripples like water ripples appeared, and an invisible air arrow shot into Qin Yun's chest at lightning speed!
Qin Yun raised his right palm without hesitation and swung it forward. The palm energy condensed by his innate strength collided with the Qi arrow, instantly shattering and annihilating the latter. The palm wind that broke through the air even hit the maze behind.
On the fire bat.
Qin Yun turned his wrist, and an invisible sword energy emerged from the ring finger of his right hand, shooting towards the maze fire bat that had lost its balance. The energy broke through the air and made a sharp whistling sound! (To be continued.)
