Due to the lack of light, there was darkness in front of Luo Zheng, and he could only barely identify the road ahead with a little light.
As for the small monsters hidden in the darkness, Luo Zheng no longer considers them at all. The biggest trouble is right behind him.
The Queen of Blade Insects chased after them relentlessly, and its huge body smashed many stone pillars in the cave.
I don't know whether it relied on its keen sense of smell or left a special imprint on Luo Zheng's body. Luo Zheng got rid of it several times through the dense caves, but was chased by it again soon after.
Under this pursuit, the smell of sulfur that rushed into my nose became stronger and stronger.
Just as Luo Zheng drilled into another chain hole, his eyes suddenly opened up and were shrouded in a dark red light.
In front of Luo Zheng's eyes, there was an underground lake, and what was in this underground lake was not water, but surging magma, and in the magma, dark red flames bloomed continuously.
And continue to disappear.
That turned out to be Earth Core Fire!
According to records in ancient books, the fire in the center of the earth is said to be a kind of flame that emerges from the center of the earth.
Refiners love and hate the Earth's Core Fire. Compared with the True Essence Fire cultivated in their bodies, the Earth's Core Fire is more violent, more violent, and also more unstable. But refining some special magic weapons
At that time, the fire in the center of the earth had miraculous effects again.
The smell of sulfur that Luo Zheng smelled before should be emanating from this pool of earth core fire.
"Boom, boom..."
Another burst of trembling sounds came from behind Luo Zheng.
The queen of knife insects chased after her again.
"The ghost lingers!"
Luo Zheng's expression changed. When he saw that there was a road on the side of the earth's core fire lake, he ran along that road around the magma lake.
The ground beside the magma lake has been burned by the earth's core fire for a long time, and there is a hot feeling when stepping on it. At the same time, heat waves in the air also hit Luo Zheng.
Luo Zheng couldn't care less at this moment, after all, it was important to escape.
"Bo!"
A pool of magma suddenly exploded, and a ball of geocentric fire burst out from the exploded magma and shot straight towards Luo Zheng.
Luo Zheng was running at high speed, and when he saw the dark red Earth Fire, he rolled on the spot in a hurry, and then avoided the Earth Fire.
The ball of earth core fire passed over Luo Zheng's back and splashed on the stone wall next to it, immediately burning a big hole in the stone wall.
"The power of the Earth's Core Fire is so terrifying," Luo Zheng noticed that the stone wall on the left was already covered with countless holes as big as a bowl. Looking at it like this, the stone wall on the left had been damaged by the Earth's Core Fire for many years.
Erosion, a layer has been cut off abruptly.
After seeing the power of the Earth's Core Fire, Luo Zheng became more cautious. If he was burned by the Earth's Core Fire that suddenly exploded, he didn't know what the consequences would be.
But at this moment, a "squeak" sound suddenly came from behind Luo Zheng. He turned his head and looked, and the Queen of Blade Insects finally appeared next to the lava lake.
Although the Blade Insect Queen is powerful and has a carapace that is extremely strong, it is also very afraid of the Earth Core Fire. It also continues to chase Luo Zheng along the road next to the magma lake.
But the good thing is that compared to the huge body of the Knife Insect Queen, Luo Zheng's body is much more flexible, and it is naturally much easier to avoid the Earth Core Fire.
The body of the Queen of the Blade Insects is so huge, and she is also very afraid of the Earth's Core Fire. Moreover, the vibrations caused by the Queen's footsteps are transmitted to the magma lake, often causing the rolling lava to burst into the Earth's Core Fire.
In order to avoid the Earth Core Fire, the Queen Mother naturally slowed down Luo Zheng a lot.
Seeing that the distance between him and the Queen of Blade Insects was getting wider and wider, Luo Zheng felt relieved. It seemed that he could get rid of the Queen of Blade Insects as long as he bypassed this magma lake.
But when he looked ahead, his expression suddenly changed, and his heart, which had not been relieved for a long time, immediately rose again.
In front of Luo Zheng, there was a huge creature blocking his way.
That behemoth was a giant beast that looked like a lion, but was more than ten times bigger than a lion!
This giant beast has fiery red manes all over its body, two thick and powerful claws clawing at the ground, its huge head hanging aside, and a scorpion-like tail waving twice from time to time. This giant beast
Now sleeping soundly!
"Fire Scorpion Lion..."
A terrifying name rose from the depths of Luo Zheng's mind.
Luo Zheng can recognize this giant beast in an instant, not that he is well-informed. The characteristic of this fire scorpion lion is its scorpion-like tail. It likes to live in areas with extremely high temperatures and is very easy to identify. Luo Zheng
I've seen it in books.
The fire scorpion lion is extremely powerful, especially its scorpion-like tail, which is the most deadly weapon. A strong man in the innate secret realm will not even have room to escape when encountering the fire scorpion lion.
This powerful beast was widely distributed in ancient times and had a large number, but now it is on the verge of extinction in the Eastern Region.
The reason is that there is an extremely rare crystal nucleus in the body of the Fire Scorpion Lion, called the Fire Scorpion Crystal Nucleus. This crystal nucleus is the most rigid and yang thing. Whether it is used for elixir refining or weapon refining,
They are all excellent materials, something that top weapon refiners and top alchemists dream of.
If anyone knew that there was a Fire Manticore hidden in this cave, a large number of strong men might immediately come to kill him.
At this moment, Luo Zheng has no interest in the Fire Scorpion Crystal Core of the Fire Scorpion Lion. What he is interested in is how to escape from the Fire Scorpion Lion.
The Fire Scorpion Lion was still in a deep sleep, and when he heard the snoring sound like a drum, it seemed that he was still sleeping soundly.
Thinking of the Sword Insect Queen behind him, Luo Zheng had no better way at the moment and could only take the risk of passing by the Fire Scorpion Lion.
But if I accidentally wake up the Fire Scorpion Lion when I pass by it...
The only outcome is death.
"Do you want to take the risk? Luo Zheng is hesitant in his heart.
If you don't take the risk, you'll have to wait to be torn apart by the Queen of Knife Insects. If you take the risk, you may still survive. Luo Zheng has no other better choice now.
Seeing the mighty fangs of the Fire Scorpion Lion and the swaying scorpion tail, Luo Zheng took two deep breaths and took steps lightly.
As Luo Zheng slowly approached, the smell of the fire scorpion lion was introduced into Luo Zheng's nose. He resisted the smell and made his steps lighter and slower, for fear of accidentally
Then the fire scorpion lion woke up.
Twenty steps.
Ten steps.
Five steps.
Luo Zheng is getting closer and closer to the Fire Scorpion Lion, his heart is pounding and his teeth are clenched tightly.
Just when he was still three steps away from the fire scorpion lion, the fire scorpion lion suddenly rolled over and stretched out its limbs.
This move of the Fire Scorpion Lion suddenly made Luo Zheng's heart hang in his throat and completely stopped beating!
Fortunately, after the fire scorpion lion stretched out, he put his huge head on his front legs and fell asleep again, without even noticing Luo Zheng who was so close at hand.
Luo Zheng opened his mouth, breathed out gently, and tiptoed forward bit by bit...
Just when Luo Zheng thought he could pass smoothly, the Blade Insect Queen caught up at this moment.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The Queen of Knife Insects stepped on the ground and made a huge vibration.
The fire scorpion lion suddenly opened its eyes, its huge eyes stared at Luo Zheng in front of him, and made a "gugu" sound in its mouth.
Luo Zheng and the Fire Scorpion Lion confronted each other for a moment. Luo Zheng used his feet hard and jumped towards the back!
The fire scorpion lion was disturbed from his sleep. At this moment, he was extremely angry. He raised his thick front paw and pounced towards Luo Zheng.
Just like a cat catching a mouse...
But Luo Zheng reacted very quickly, and the Fire Scorpion Lion missed everything.
"Ouch!"
The Fire Scorpion Lion was completely angry. It roared at Luo Zheng, the "villain", and was about to pounce. But at this moment, it discovered the Queen of Blade Insects on the opposite side, and then stopped arresting Luo Zheng.
.
Luo Zheng swallowed his saliva and realized that he could not get out of today's desperate situation.
Behind him is the Queen of Blade Insects, and in front of him is a Fire Scorpion Lion.
No matter which piece it is, it can kill him instantly.
At this moment, both the Sword Insect Queen and the Fire Scorpion Lion discovered each other's existence, and both sides showed deep fear in their eyes.
But neither side chose to give in.
The Queen of Blade Insects waved her huge red blade and made a sharp "squeaking" sound from her mouth, as if to warn the Fire Manticore not far away.
The Fire Manticore's claws were constantly digging on the ground, and the Fire Manticore easily carved out claw marks on the hard stone surface.
This confrontation lasted for about half a stick of incense.
The Queen of Blade Insects was the first to lose her patience, and the scream suddenly became urgent, and she rushed towards Luo Zheng.
The fire scorpion lion also raised its head and let out a roar that echoed through the cave, and also rushed towards Luo Zheng.
Luo Zheng's face, standing in the middle, suddenly darkened.
At this moment, he had no second choice. He gritted his teeth and jumped into the lava lake on the side...
The violently churning magma lake swallowed Luo Zheng instantly.
