The Heavenly Saber Novel - Chapter 224
Chapter 224 Underground Passage
Li Qing’s reaction was extremely fast. He had already dodged the Yin Sha Divine Lightning as soon as it was thrown out. Although there were inevitable aftershocks, there was basically no damage.
As for the dense black mist that had exploded out, it covered his vision and was filled with a gloomy aura. It should be extremely lethal and harmful gases. Li Qing naturally did not dare to touch it easily.
Although he had an immortal spirit body and was not afraid of many evil techniques, it did not mean that he would be arrogant and arrogant. Otherwise, he would end up capsizing in the sewer sooner or later.
Li Qing dodged in the direction of the gate, faintly blocking the only exit in the hall, preventing Mr. Gui Yi from escaping.
Most of the area in front was enveloped in black mist, making it impossible for people to see what was happening inside. They didn’t know what kind of schemes Mr. Gui Yi was plotting in the mist, but as long as he guarded this exit, he would basically be in an invincible position.
Li Qing stood there quietly and watched as the black mist in front of him gradually faded away. After a long time, the black mist finally dissipated, revealing the situation inside.
Looking closely, Mr. Gui Yi had actually disappeared!
“How is this possible?” Li Qing was immediately stunned. He couldn’t help but wipe his eyes and looked around. Could there be another exit here?
He carefully observed for a while. The main hall was so big that he could see it clearly with a single glance. He did not find any escape route. This was a completely sealed place.
There was no Mr. Gui Yi’s aura in the darkness, so it was obvious that he was not using a secret technique to hide.
“Where the hell did you run to? Damn it, a well-behaved person actually disappeared out of thin air!”
He searched the hall for a long time, but he still didn’t see any trace of Mr. Ghost One. This matter was too strange, making him a little confused.
Could it be that this person sneaked out of the gate under his nose? However, this was impossible even if he thought about it. He always stared at it, unless Mr. Gui Yi would be invisible.
Suddenly, his heart skipped a beat as he cast his gaze towards the pitch-black hole under the Sun Moon Pill Furnace that was connected to the earth fire.
“Could it be that he has drilled into the entrance of the Earth Fire Cave?” Li Qing guessed in his heart that other than this method, there seemed to be no other possibility!
It was impossible for a person to disappear out of thin air. It was highly likely that Mr. Gui Yi had escaped underground through this underground fire passageway. This person is really cunning. To think that he would be able to escape in such a way. Who would have thought that he would drill into a burning cave?
Since he had discovered his tracks, he couldn’t let this person escape anymore. Li Qing immediately made a decision and immediately jumped into the pitch-black earth fire cave.
The entrance of the cave wasn’t big, only allowing one or two people to pass through. However, after entering, the passage was extremely spacious, slanted downwards, allowing people to walk upright within.
The stone wall was covered with some red lines. It should be a super formation that could trigger the earth fire. However, the formation was not activated at this time, so there shouldn’t be any problems.
Li Qing lit a torch, illuminated the darkness, and walked forward.
He lowered his head and saw that he had discovered a row of footprints from the ground. They should have been left behind not long ago. This further confirmed his speculation that Mr. Gui Yi had indeed escaped from here.
The passageway was somewhat hot, and waves of heat pounced on his face. This made Li Qing somewhat uneasy. If there was a sudden burst of earth fire in the depths of the underground, wouldn’t the situation be bad?
Under this sense of crisis, he couldn’t help but quicken his pace, wanting to chase after Mr. Gui Yi and kill him to end this matter.
The further he went, the hotter the air became, and his forehead started to sweat slightly. Li Qing could only prop up his True Essence Shield to isolate the heat. At first glance, this passage was a curved downward circular passage. It was extremely long, dark, and unfathomable.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, it seemed as if they had walked through this hot region. The temperature suddenly began to slowly drop again, and very quickly, it reached the normal temperature.
However, to Li Qing’s surprise, the temperature had been decreasing without stopping. The warmer they got, the colder it became, and soon it became bone-chilling cold. Layers of ice formed on the ground.
From extreme heat to extreme cold, Li Qing was caught off guard by the change of extremes. This place was too strange.
After walking further inside, the temperature in the passageway slowly rose again and finally became very hot. He should have left the cold area and entered the hot area.
The distance that followed was like this, crisscrossing between heat and cold.
It was as if the temperature would change every once in a while, as if there were two sources of ice and fire affecting the temperature beneath the ground. Li Qing spiraled down the tunnel and felt different temperatures as he passed through the two ice and fire sources.
‘”Hot and cold, Yin and Yang” I know. Underneath this ground, this passageway should be a vortex-shaped circular passageway, just like a giant Yin Yang Fish. The two sources of heat and cold are located on the Yin Yang Fish’s Yang and Yin points. They intersect to form a mysterious array! ” Li Qing guessed.
He didn’t know why the Yin Yang Demon Emperor had built such a vast underground array.
This passage was extremely long. After all, it was a vortex-shaped annular passage. It pushed downwards from the outside to the inside in circles until it reached the deepest part of the ground.
Mr. Gui Yi should be not far ahead, and there are very clear footprints on the ground. This person’s speed wasn’t slow either. He had come down so long before Li Qing, so it wouldn’t be so easy to catch up to him.
After chasing for a long time, the distance between the two gradually narrowed.
Li Qing could feel that the spiritual energy in the air was gradually becoming denser and denser. The area of this underground passageway was also becoming wider and wider, several zhang wide. It felt like an entrance to the sea, about to reach the vast sea.
He knew that the end was near.
After advancing for a period of time, he finally reached the deepest part of the earth. Suddenly, he saw an enormous heavenly passage appear in front of him.
He took a deep breath and felt that the spiritual energy here was too dense! It was much denser than the spiritual energy in the herb garden!
There was only one possibility for such a dense amount of spiritual energy, and that was that this was the center of the Myriad Rivers Returning to the Sea, the true gathering place of spiritual energy!
I didn’t expect that Mr. Zhui Yi would actually come to such a miraculous place and hide deep underground. If it wasn’t for this person leading the way, he wouldn’t have been able to find this place.
Within this gigantic heavenly passage, there were actually spirit stones condensed in the surroundings. It was simply a small spirit stone mine.
After arriving here, there was basically no way to escape. There was a black shadow in front of him. It was Mr. Gui Yi.
“Mr. Gui Yi, don’t run anymore. There’s no way out here!” Li Qing stepped forward and approached.
Mr. Gui Yi did not answer. He simply swept forward in a daze, and with a flash of black shadow, he turned a corner.
“Eh, there’s actually a place to go?”
Li Qing curiously made a sound and immediately took a step forward to catch up. Turning the corner of the road, he fixed his gaze on a small space filled with mist.
This mist was formed from spiritual energy!
