The trio first hiked through the primeval forest at the foot of the mountain, which should not have such dense vegetation in the subarctic zone. But the forests on this island are really exaggerated, almost impermeable. They walked among them, the canopy of trees obscuring the sky, and the forest was lit only by dim light. There were no birds, no insects, just the crunching of feet on the thick layer of dead leaves.

Further on, more and more vines appeared between the giant trees and the giant trees. The vines were tangled together, like ropes blocking the road. If you're not careful, you'll get caught in your clothes. The three of them used their abilities to open the way, and after barely advancing more than ten meters, they were out of breath and had to think of another way.

If there is a way to lighten the body, stepping on the top of the canopy and fluttering is of course a good choice. But Sun Xiang didn't teach them how to do it, they could jump a few meters high, but they would soon fall like a scale.

Ji remembers that there were hot springs flowing down from the mountains and converging into deep pools by the sea. If you go up the mountain stream, there may be a ready-made path to follow.

As soon as they thought of it, the three of them moved horizontally around the foot of the mountain, and finally really found the stream of the mountain stream. The stream is crystal clear and washes away the rocks below. It may be that there are more sulfur crystals on both sides, and the water temperature is higher, but the trees grow very little, and it can even be said that there is no grass.

The stream was steaming hot, and Picasso probed with his hands to be on the safe side. Scorching, but not deadly. It seems like a viable path. If that doesn't work, retreat down the stream and go back to where you started cutting.

The three of them moved up on the rocks next to the stream, and if they encountered impassable terrain, they jumped over it. This is indeed much faster than in the dense forest.

It's just that the mountains and forests are getting quieter and quieter, and it seems that there is a very special atmosphere of disharmony that has descended on the surroundings of the three of them. Ji Yuan was infected by this atmosphere, and looked around suspiciously. But the forest was so quiet that not even a fresh breeze came.

She felt uneasy and wanted to ask. The cow girl shook her head, put her finger to her lips, and whispered.

Picasso and Ji Yuan leaned their heads over, and the cow sister pointed to the stream under her feet and said softly: "Stream...... No sound. ”

The two of them suddenly realized where this discordant feeling came from. Even if there are no animals and no insects here, how can there be no sound of flowing water in this gurgling stream under your feet!

Something is unusual, and the three of them are in a dilemma. In the end, Ji Yuan gritted his teeth and turned his head and decided to move on. The so-called newborn calves are not afraid of tigers, and the little friars who have just entered the door are surprisingly bold. Legend has it that in such an unbelievable environment, there must be some natural treasures hidden. As cultivators, if they don't take it, they will bring disaster, and maybe this is the great opportunity that God has prepared for them. They seem to have forgotten that, according to legend, heavenly treasures can also be accompanied by deadly threats.

It's just that when they move forward, the three of them deliberately lighten their steps, as if they are also worried that they will wake up the unknown existence here because of their recklessness.

In this way, he walked in silence for almost an hour, and finally reached the front of the two semicircular mountain packs. Two hours ago, when they looked at it from afar, they hadn't noticed it. Now standing next to the two mountain packs, I realize that it is so huge. I don't know how such a strange terrain came about.

The stream that the three of them went up the river flowed from the middle of these two mountain packs. But it wasn't until here that it was discovered that there was more than one such stream. Many yellow streams branch out of a large deep pool and flow in all directions of the island before finally flowing into the sea.

At the end of this deep pool is a huge karst cave embedded in the cliff, but half of the cave is in the water, so the surface of the water is only half the size. The water in the deep pool must have been very hot, and more than one place could be seen churning with boiling water, and bursts of white water vapor were rising on the surface of the water. The water in the pool is probably rich in sulfides from the volcano, and the whole water body has a faint brownish-yellow color.

The smell of sulfur in the air is getting heavier and the temperature is high. It's just that there is still no sound in the four places.

In front of the deep pool, there is a stone monument erected abruptly. In fact, it is not the kind of elaborate stone monument, it should be the predecessors who found a smooth stone and erected the stone in this conspicuous position.

It was engraved with words, still in Latin, and it seemed to be the same Tibius's handwriting.

Picasso stepped forward and made a closer look. Because he didn't dare to speak loudly, the three heads came together.

"The gods are above, and I have found the gate. The legend of the barbarians is not a lie, Aniah, I will definitely take you home.

Latecomers, I know you have a reason why you have to be here, so please remember the barbarian ballad as I did:

Follow the trail of fish in the fishless autumn;

stepping into the river of sulphur on a dreamless night;

The gate of the distant country is between the eyes;

Do not awaken from eternal sleep;

Walk through the corridors of flame with a body of steel;

Waiting for the candlelight of the guide in the Garden of the Lost;

The inverted temple rotates eternally;

Floating feathers have no weight;

An unknown homeland from which no traveler has ever returned;

Because ......"

The recording of the stone carvings was interrupted at this point, and the last letter was only half engraved before it came to an abrupt end. It seems conceivable that a Roman named Tibius was carving a warning on the stele with a dagger, but an accident suddenly interrupted him.

Picasso recited this strange ballad in a very soft voice, and everyone looked at each other as if they could understand it. The "sighting of fish" is generally understandable, as an extremely large number of fish have indeed appeared around the fleet these days. But how to understand the "fishless autumn", although it is true that there were no fish in the Barents Sea in the early stage, but now it is summer, not autumn.

The "river of sulfur" is supposed to refer to the hot spring stream they go up along the way, the "eyes" are the two huge semi-circular mountain bags, and the "gate" is supposed to be the cave at the end of the pool. But "Dreamless Night" is still incomprehensible.

It seems that the answer to all questions can only be obtained by entering the half-sunken cave. But at this time, Ji Yuanyu was already a little retreating. Because the temperature of the boiling water in the deep pool was close to boiling, with their current cultivation, it would only be cooked after a moment of resistance.

They looked into the cave near the edge of the pool, but they couldn't see anything because of the rising water vapor obscuring their vision. At this time, the water vapor rising from the surface of the water became more and more dense, enveloping the three of them, and the smell of sulfur was pungent. They hurried back a few steps to avoid the annoying vapor.

But at this moment, the three of them stopped their movements at the same time, and their shocked expressions stopped on their faces. Because they saw that at some point, in the midst of the water vapor, there were shadowy transparent figures moving in it.

Originally, these figures could not be seen, but because of the water vapor, the silhouettes of empty human beings could be seen in the water vapor.

These figures, tall and short, fat and thin, slowly moved into the deep pool. Several figures passed through Picasso, and he was startled. But apart from shaking violently all over the body, there didn't seem to be any real damage.

Whether there is danger or not, it is not advisable to stay here for long. Not only spooky, but also very infiltrating. The three of them didn't dare to make a sound, but just exchanged glances and slowly stepped back.

Just when they were about to get out of the range of the mist, the cow sister suddenly felt that Ji Yuan's whole body around her trembled violently, and she was already on the verge of losing control.

"Wrap up, don't!"

Picasso also seemed to have noticed a problem, and he hurriedly stopped his waist and hugged Ji Yuanyuan. But the two simply couldn't stop it.

Ji Yuanxuan frantically broke free from the restraints of the two, she burst into tears, and rushed forward. Her fingers dug into the dirt and let out a heart-rending cry:

"Brother Kun!! Chubby !!"
