Volume 10: War in the Demon Realm Chapter 2508: Skeletons and Lava Lake
After saying this, the purple-haired woman pressed the jade pendant in her hand with a spell, and suddenly the blood streaks came to life and swam on the surface of the jade pendant.
"Very good. If Fifth Sister has this secret technique to determine the location of that monster, we don't need to worry about being attacked by surprise. This will give us a big advantage." Hearing this, the big man with yellow hair replied with joy on his face.
Then he gave up his position in front and let his "fifth sister" walk in the front.
After walking a few steps in the underground cave, the group entered a man-made mine tunnel.
Judging from the small pits on both sides of the mine tunnel, it is obvious that the nearby pyrolite has been mined out. But even so, the temperature of the hot air here is obviously higher than when they first entered the underground.
point.
However, if it were not for the fantasy desert deep in this mine, a group of people would have used the earth escape technique to sneak directly into the ground to find the monster. Now, they can only follow the existing mine road and head towards Li
I walked deeper and deeper.
The mine tunnels in this vein are densely packed, and a certain number of them are intertwined at certain intervals, forming a spider web-like existence.
Some of these mine tunnels are as long as a few miles, while others are shorter than a dozen feet. Most of the fire cloud stones inside have been mined out, leaving only some hidden places and occasionally a little bit left.
However, when they passed through more than a dozen mine tunnels and came to a convergence of four or five mine tunnels, Han Li suddenly narrowed his eyes.
The several mine tunnels that appeared in front of us were all filled with dots of red light, and the four walls were covered with fist-sized red crystals.
But what Han Li was looking at was not these rare materials, but a headless half-skeleton lying half at the entrance of a passage.
The skull of this skeleton was missing. Although the body was intact, the skin was withered and shriveled, as if all the flesh and blood had been missing. Now only a thin layer of skin was left on the body.
Naturally, the purple-haired woman and the yellow-haired man also saw the remains, and when they looked at each other, they both showed a hint of surprise.
But after the purple-haired woman glanced at a corner of the skeleton's clothes, her face suddenly darkened, and she grabbed the skeleton with a slender hand.
With a "pop" sound, a small piece of clothing flew up from the skeleton out of thin air, was caught in the woman's hand, and was unfolded.
Han Li glanced at it and immediately saw a pale silver word "白" on the small piece of clothing.
"They are disciples of our Bai family, but it's hard to say which one." The purple-haired woman said with a frown.
The big man with yellow hair snorted coldly, and raised his arm to strike at the skeleton.
After a "swish" sound, a green leather bag also flew over, and when the big man touched it, it exploded out of thin air, and a swarm of blood-red giant bees appeared in the void.
Each one is about the size of an adult's hand, and its wings are flapping slightly.
"It's the Blood Demon Bee! If I remember correctly, this seems to be the demon insect that that guy Bai Yan carries with him!" The yellow-haired man asked with an ugly look on his face when he saw these blood demon bees.
"Reporting back to my ancestor, these are Baiyan's Blood Bees. My great-nephew had seen him fight with them several times before, and he would never admit his mistake." An old man with snow-white hair among the six Bai family disciples immediately stood up.
He stepped forward and replied, but his expression was slightly sad, and he seemed to have some friendship with this "Bai Yan".
"So, this corpse is really Bai Yan. But he was one of the disciples who stayed at the stronghold, and he was also the disciple with the highest cultivation level among them. How could he die tragically here!" The purple-haired woman sighed softly,
He raised his hand and shot a fireball, turning the bones into ashes, and then asked slowly.
The group of people were not too surprised by the miserable appearance of the corpse.
After all, in the demon world, there are countless demonic powers that directly absorb the essence and blood of others, so there is nothing too strange about it.
"Keep moving forward. Maybe you will discover something." After thinking about it for a while, the big yellow-haired man said with a decision.
The others had no objection and immediately continued to move forward along the mine tunnel where the half-skeleton was located. However, everyone felt a little more cautious.
After traveling along this mine tunnel for hundreds of feet, five or six other headless skeletons were discovered one after another along the way. After being identified by the Bai family, it turned out that they were all the Bai family disciples who had originally stayed at the stronghold.
.
This made the yellow-haired man's face sink like water!
After walking for a while, the big man suddenly stopped and asked the purple-haired woman:
"Fifth sister, you are probably far away from that monster now. You can't be sensed by it right here."
"Brother, don't worry. In this Fantasy Desert, our spiritual thoughts are already greatly suppressed. In addition, we are now on the fire cloud stone veins, with a lot of fire interference, and our spiritual thoughts cannot be sent too far. And now we are far away from here.
The beast is still five or six miles away. He will definitely not be able to find me waiting for him from such a distance. But if he gets closer, it will be hard to tell." The purple-haired woman lowered her head and checked the jade pendant in her hand. She looked serious.
replied.
"In this case, some fellow Taoists should start casting spells to hide their figures." After thinking about it for a moment, the yellow-haired man said hello to the others.
"Should we start casting the spell now? It will take a lot of mana. Anyway, it is better than being discovered by the monster in advance." Luanlong Tianjun touched his plump chin and muttered a few words reluctantly, but the next moment,
But when he opened his mouth, a black token spurted out, and turned into a black mist in the wind, covering his figure. Then, both the mist and the figure hidden in it became blurred at the same time, and finally turned into a black mist.
For the shadows that are almost but missing.
When Han Li saw this situation, he smiled slightly and made a hand seal with one hand, causing the black light on his body to roll down and turn into a faint black shadow.
As for Han Qizi, he just flicked one of his sleeves, and after a piece of crystal light rolled out, his whole person became crystal clear, turning into a transparent existence like an ice sculpture.
Bai Yunxin and others each showed a silver flag, and after throwing it at the same time, a silver light array formed in the air. When they fell downwards, the six people suddenly disappeared.
Seeing that everyone else had finished casting their spells, the yellow-haired man and the purple-haired woman each had black energy coming out from their bodies, and the other threw out a brocade handkerchief, and also hid their figures in a flash.
The group of people walked forward again.
The length of this mine tunnel was far beyond what Han Li and others had imagined. After walking for a long time, they still had not made it to the other end.
Fortunately, after walking for another meal, the originally straight mine tunnel suddenly became winding, the surrounding stone walls suddenly became rough and black, and it actually entered another natural underground crack.
At this time, other cracks of various sizes began to appear all around, some were no more than a foot wide, and some were as wide as several feet. From time to time, extremely hot wind blew out from them, and there was a faint smell of burnt and sulfur.
…
Half an hour later, when a group of people finally flew out of an inconspicuous crack, a giant underground lava lake appeared beneath them.
This lake covers an area of a thousand acres. The surface of the lake is covered with red lava that bubbles out from time to time. The surrounding edge is a land of burnt black rocks. However, on these rocks, there are pieces of purple inlaid with several feet long.
The red crystals, illuminated by the lava, flickered with a strange red light.
When Han Li saw this situation, he couldn't help but narrow his eyes.
The appearance of these purple-red crystals is a manifestation of the fire being compressed to the extreme. In other words, these crystals, which are not small in size, are actually top-grade fire cloud stones that are extremely rare outside.
And with just a rough scan, he discovered that the number of these crystals was tens of thousands. Whether it was replaced by magic stones or spiritual stones, it was an extremely huge astronomical number, enough to make the average demon king.
Crazy.
This is no wonder why the Bai family would rather pay such a huge price than give up this place.
But what made Han Li immediately look uncertain was that although the underground cave where the huge lava lake was located was huge, its structure was clearly visible. At a glance, there was no trace of the magical beast.
The big man with yellow hair glanced downwards carefully, and immediately moved his lips slightly to send a message to the purple-haired woman:
"Fifth sister, you are not looking for the wrong place. Is that monster really here?"
"You can't be wrong. The ray of essence and blood from it is indeed pointing to this place." The purple-haired woman held the jade pendant in one hand and replied without hesitation.
"In this case, the monster is most likely hiding in the lava below. Very good, it seems that it really hasn't noticed our arrival. Yunxin, you arrange the magic circle immediately. Brother Han, Luan Long,
Fellow Daoist Han, I would like to trouble you to be vigilant first." The big yellow-haired man glanced at the lava below, and immediately said solemnly to the others.
The six Bai family disciples immediately agreed and dispersed around the lava lake. They took out a stack of stacked flag formation plates and began to set up a seemingly extraordinary giant magic circle.
Tianjun Luanlong and Han Qizi, on the other hand, without saying a word, dropped their bodies towards the lava below, and at a height of more than ten feet away from the lava, they were suspended motionless in the void.
At this time, although the two of them still used secret techniques to hide their figures, they carefully took out their protective magic weapons.
Luanlong Tianjun opened his mouth and spit out a brilliant blue round bowl, his whole body emitting a dark blue cold light.
However, Han Qizi just waved his sleeves, and twelve crystal clear flags flew out from it. Under the urging of his magic skills, they turned into twelve groups of cold light, circling and dancing around his body.
However, Han Li just stepped lightly into the void with one foot. Immediately, five-color flames surged under his feet, transforming into a five-color lotus flower, which slowly floated downwards while holding his body.
The surface of this five-color lotus flower is extremely gorgeous, but under the flash of five-color glow, a strange cold air emanates from it, which is the transformation of the five-color extreme flame.
