Xianyuan Farm

Everyone's eyes quickly focused on the deeper part of the huge stone cave. The structure of this cave is quite special. As soon as they came in from the canyon, they had already entered the cave hall of this huge cave. As they went deeper into the stone cave, the stone cave became smaller and smaller. At first, it was easy to accommodate hundreds of people and felt spacious, but after walking for dozens of meters, the stone cave was only large enough for two or three people to walk side by side.

Some people said that there was a demonic aura coming from the deeper cave.

Just when the vanguard troops were discussing with hundreds of millions of people, the follow-up troops in the foundation-building period had already mixed with everyone. Hearing the breath of demon beasts coming from the cave, many disciples quickly started to discuss it with great interest.

"Wow, I can finally see the monsters."

"That's right. Last time, my senior brother followed the two supreme elders and Elder Yang to Shuangshengmen to participate in the sect competition. When he was about to reach Shuangshengmen, he encountered several ghost-headed pomfret. Later, they were killed by the two supreme elders. But that senior brother always boasted in front of us that he also participated in the hunting operation. Seeing his smug look made me feel very unhappy. This time when I encounter the monsters, I wonder what he can show off in front of me."

"Ghost-headed pomfret is nothing. This time we are exploring the wilderness and the monsters we encountered are much more powerful than ghost-headed pomfret."

"But our strength is low, we will have to see it later. Act according to the situation, especially don't show off your ability. It's safest to follow the elders or deacons of the sect. "

"Needless to say, the elders of the sect brought us out just to let us broaden our horizons. If we are lucky, we may find some precious spiritual materials and make a fortune. "

"..."

Gu Hongyu listened to all kinds of discussions and sighed in his heart. These people really regarded this wilderness exploration as an autumn outing. Many people thought that this wilderness exploration experience would be a topic of conversation for a period of time in the future. They really have them, but they may be disappointed when they enter this stone cave, because the monsters in it have already fled.

The old monster and Taoist Gu are the strongest among the crowd, and it is their duty to walk in front.

This stone cave is very long. After walking for a long time, the stone cave has always maintained a height of about three meters and a width of about two meters. The ground inside the cave is slightly bumpy and there is almost no big drop. It extends to the ground at a slope of 20 to 30 degrees.

There are few forks on both sides of the stone cave, and the cave wall feels very smooth. It is said that there was a monster in the cave that went in and out for a long time, otherwise it would not be in this state.

However, as they walked, everyone felt hot all over, and many disciples in the middle stage of foundation building began to use their skills to resist the ubiquitous heat.

"What's wrong with us? Why do I feel so hot now?"

"Me too, this cave is weird, but why don't Sect Master Qi and the others react and keep going in?"

"Maybe the heat hasn't affected them yet, but I believe they can't resist it the further they go in."

"..."

In fact, when the disciples behind felt something was wrong, Sect Master Qi and Elder Lu who were walking in front had already discovered the problem, but when they asked the old monster for his opinion, the old monster told them to keep going.

The kind-hearted Taoist Gu explained: "There should be a fire-attributed monster living here before. There should be a magma lake at the deepest part of the cave, and the temperature inside will be higher."

"Then Elder Gu, why don't you let the disciples with low cultivation stop moving forward? If they continue like this, let alone attacking the monster, even resisting this heat will consume a lot of true energy." Sect Master Qi asked.

The old monster still said calmly: "If I tell you that the monster entrenched here ran away by itself and only an empty nest is left, would you believe it? And this is a natural fire dragon cave. The disciples with low cultivation can have unexpected benefits if they keep circulating their true energy in the cave!"

"It's good instead of harmful?" Elder Lu, who had never experienced such a thing, asked in confusion.

Taoist Master Gu explained in a public-spirited way: "The closer you get to the underground of the Fire Dragon Cave, the more the fire element can remove the impurities accumulated in the body of a cultivator. Practicing in such an environment for a long time can make the true essence more pure and condensed. What do you think of this effect?"

"Ah, there is such a good thing. By the way, you said this cave is called the Fire Dragon Cave. Could it be that a fire dragon used to live here?" Elder Yang asked.

"What are you thinking about? A fire dragon? If there is really an adult fire dragon in it, people like me and Lao Gu have to stay away from it. No matter how many of you come, you can only fill the gaps between the other party's teeth. The reason why this passage is called the Fire Dragon Cave is just the attribute of the cave. The name is tall and sounds better, right?" The old monster replied coldly.

"Also, although the Fire Dragon Cave can help people remove impurities from their bodies and refine their true essence, there are also fire evil spirits here. Except for disciples with fire attribute talents, disciples with other attributes should not practice in it more than 4 times a year, and each time should not exceed one day."

Despite the various disadvantages of the Fire Dragon Cave, Elder Lu still looked at Sect Master Qi and Elder Yang with envy: "Even if Luoxia Sect has nothing else to open up the wilderness, it is worth having such a place. If the news of the Fire Dragon Cave is announced, your Luoxia Sect will stand at the entrance of the cave and charge fees. The profit earned in that year will be enough to support the expenses of a sect."

"Hehe, hehe, it's just luck. If it weren't for Elder Old Monster and Elder Gu explaining, I wouldn't know the purpose of this cave. And I can choose this unowned wasteland as the territory of Luoxia Sect in the future, all thanks to Elder Old Monster's recommendation!" Sect Master Qi was excited again when he heard Elder Lu's flattering words.

Elder Yang was thinking on the side: "Sect Master, after we open up the wasteland, we must make sure that our disciples guard it strictly..."

Before Elder Yang finished speaking, the old monster said lazily: "Okay, you are so excited about this little benefit, there are better things inside!"

"Ah, there are better treasures inside?" Sect Master Qi, Elder Yang and Elder Lu asked in unison.

This time, neither the old monster nor Taoist Gu answered. Gu Hongyu, who was confused, went straight to the depths of the cave.

Some of the weaker disciples who followed behind wanted to continue to go inside, but they were powerless as the temperature in the cave was getting higher and higher. Sect Master Qi and Elder Lu told them that if they couldn't hold on, they should keep circulating their true essence on the spot. Continuing to do so would bring unexpected benefits. After that, they hurriedly chased after the old monster.

After walking for nearly a kilometer, Gu Hongyu couldn't help but circulate his true essence to resist the heat in the cave. Just when he thought he couldn't hold on, the cave passage suddenly opened up. What appeared in front of Gu Hongyu was really a flowing magma lake. The magma was bubbling from time to time. When the bubbles burst, a stream of heat energy rushed directly to his face. There was not only high-temperature heat energy, but also a stream of pungent smell.

"Boy, quickly close your external breathing, the gas inside is poisonous..."
