The air became unusually hot and dry, and the three of them spread their legs and ran towards the front of the passage, a fiery dragon swept after them.

Yun Kang ran forward while taking back the Liu Ye Qingmei Flying Knife, he regretted a little in his heart, the Liu Ye Qingmei Knife was too powerful, and it exploded the time formation at once.

The top of this passage was coated with a thick layer of fire oil, and when it exploded and ignited the flames, the entire passage instantly burst into flames.

Billowing smoke and flames, churning with heat, surging at an astonishing speed, almost faster than they could run.

Yunkang quickly rushed to the front, and at this time, Bai Ruxi suddenly stopped his steps and shouted: "Stop, don't run forward-"

A deep pit about three meters wide suddenly appeared in front of it, all made of bluestone blocks, and a faint layer of smoke wafted out from the deep pit, swirling upward, faintly filling with a dead and rancid smell.

Yun Kang looked at it, and the pit seemed to be in a fog, and he couldn't see anything underneath.

The fire swirled with thick smoke pouring up from behind him, burning all the way to the "crackling" sound in the passage.

The oxygen was consumed in an instant, and Yun Kang hurriedly created a True Qi Defense Cover to temporarily block the attack of the flames, but the temperature in the passage rose rapidly, and it soon turned into a closed furnace.

The three of them hid behind the defensive cover, Tian Qi was already seriously deprived of oxygen, he rolled his eyes vigorously, and the rolling heat wave blew on them through the defensive cover, and Yun Kang felt that the sweat and pores of his whole body were scorched by the high temperature.

Yun Kang's true qi was insufficient, and the defensive shield couldn't stop it for long, seeing that the flames were about to burn on his body, he blocked the two shields in front of Bai Ruxi and Tian Qi to block the fire, and then shouted: "Jump!"

The three of them grabbed each other's arms, turned their heads back, and jumped into the pit.

The True Qi Defensive Shield shattered in an instant, and the flames surged over with a "whirl", burning the entire passage.

A flame rushed into the deep pit and burned Tian Qi's hair.

"Whew-" Tian Qi howled, and then fell into a pile of sand with a "bang", rolled on the ground, and extinguished the flames, but his hair was already burned to pieces.

The three of them fell very embarrassed, eating mouths full of fine sand, fortunately, Yunkang used his shield to block the attack of the flames, and when he jumped down, he used a fixed body technique to buffer the speed and strength, otherwise Bai Ruxi and Tian Qi would definitely fall and spurt blood.

This deep pit is more than 30 meters high, and the surrounding area is dark and vast, as if you have come to a vast and empty cave.

Then they looked up and saw that the fire had spread throughout the passage.

Yun Kang couldn't help but be a little frightened, if there was no such deep pit, they would definitely be trapped in the fire and couldn't escape, even if he could barely save Bai Ruxi in the end, but Tian Qi was certain to die.

The three of them felt scared for a while, and they tossed all night, when the sweat on their bodies was dried by the fire, and when they relaxed, they felt pain all over their bodies, and they were tired and drunk.

Yunkang took out some mineral water and food, and the three of them ate a little bit separately.

Tian Qi had a wound on his leg cut by the claws of a wild fox, which was more than a foot long, and the wound turned over the blood-red flesh, almost so deep that the bones were exposed.

Yunkang used hemostatic medicine and helped him bandage him with gauze, Tian Qi was so painful that he died, but he gritted his teeth and held back.

There was silence in the huge empty cave, and the three of them sat down in the sand to rest, only to hear the fire above their heads "crackling".

Since entering the passage, there have been accidents one after another, and it is simply overwhelming.

But after seeing through the time formation, everything became clear, and finally let Yun Kang figure out what Jiang Mo was trying to find.

The time formation is a high-grade formation in the immortal cultivation world, which can lock in a certain period of time, and then trap the opponent in time, so that he is exhausted, but he can't break free.

The people who arranged the time formation were all powerful immortals who penetrated the heavens and the earth, and it was almost impossible for immortal cultivators below the Jindan stage to understand this formation.

He looked up and looked above his head, the passage had burned and collapsed, and they couldn't go back the way they came, unable to figure out how the Time Formation had formed.

But there is one thing Yun Kang can be sure of, the time formation in the passage is not laid by immortal cultivators, but a kind of magic weapon treasure.

This is what Jiang Mo is looking for, Yun Kang understands in his heart that that kid wants to get a high-grade magic weapon!

Yun Kang thought about it, Jiang Mo's kid is too chicken thief, he will never give him a magic weapon, and he has to be more careful along the way.

Now they are facing a new problem, which is how to get out. He looked around, turned to Bai Ruxi and said, "After we get rested, we'll go find the exit." "Leaving here is a big problem if you don't think about whether you can find the treasure or not.

Bai Ruxi frowned, nibbling on the compressed biscuits, and said worriedly: "Boss, how can I smell a rotten stench, this is not a good sign." His implication was that there was a smell of rotting corpses in the cave.

He didn't make it clear directly, because he was a little flustered in his heart, he really didn't have a bottom, and if he couldn't find an exit, even if they took the treasure, they couldn't take the things out.

Tian Qi nodded and said, "I also think the atmosphere here is a bit weird, you smell this sandpile, it seems to have a smell." ”

As soon as he said this, Bai Ruxi immediately jumped up from the sand, so disgusted that he couldn't even drink water.

The fire above his head gradually weakened, but the strange smell that permeated the cave became stronger and stronger, Yun Kang felt unbearable, and quickly held his breath, packed up his things, and beckoned the two of them to leave here quickly.

The three of them intuitively set a direction, then turned on their flashlights to illuminate the way and walked along a potholed sandy area.

It felt extremely empty, and there was a gray mist.

After walking forward for a while, the sand turned into a hard stone floor, Yun Kang swept it with a strong flashlight, and found that he came to an empty corridor made of bluestone.

The stone walls on both sides of the empty corridor were decorated with oil lamp bases with bull heads and horse faces, Tian Qi felt very curious, limped over, knocked on the oil lamp holder with his hand, turned his head and said: "These are all high-grade bronzes, they should be considered a treasure." ”

He took out the shovel and gestured at it, this lampholder is quite small and delicate, if you can pry one off, it is easy to take it out.

Bai Ruxi frowned and glanced at him, and said, "Can you be a little promising, and even want to pry away other people's lampholders?"

Tian Qi knocked on the lamp holder with a shovel, making a crisp sound of "dang", he turned his head and said: "There is a saying called goose plucking, since we are here, we can't avoid vulgarity." ”

Bai Ruxi snorted coldly and said, "What kind of goose has plucked its feathers, you are a thief and don't go empty." ”

Tian Qi was just about to pry a lampholder with a shovel, but Yun Kang raised his hand to stop him and said, "The lampholders here are symmetrical, with four on each side, and it is very likely that they are balancing mechanisms." If you pry one off, the whole space will lose balance, and there may be something like poisoned arrows. ”

Tian Qi was so frightened that he hurriedly withdrew his hand, not daring to touch the lampholder easily.

Bai Ruxi looked at the shape of the lamp holder, and said depressedly: "This is a bull head and horse noodles, and when you encounter this thing, no one will use it as an ornament." As he spoke, he turned his head to look at the empty corridor, and said, "Unless it is for the dead, such lampholders were often used in the cemeteries of the ancients." ”

"It doesn't have to be a cemetery, it could be some kind of totem worship. Yun Kang found that the shape of these bull heads and horse faces was very peculiar, and there were two sharp horns on the top of their heads, which were not quite the same as the description of the underworld and hell.

He immediately used his flashlight to shine in front of the empty corridor, and found that the terrain was getting higher and higher, gradually rising into a noticeable slope.

The three of them each took their flashlights and walked towards the slope ahead.

After walking uphill for five or six hundred meters, Yun Kang faintly heard the sound of the water, and he hurriedly calculated the direction, and it was likely that there was a river canal above his head.

The bluestone blocks here were more damp than other places, and there were some water marks on the ground, he approached the stone wall, raised his hand to touch it, and found that the texture of the stone wall was a little special, and it didn't seem to be as cold and hard as just now.

At this time, he only heard a "snap", Tian Qi kicked an object under his feet, he was startled, and exclaimed: "What a thing!"

Yun Kang looked down and saw a round kettle on the ground. He picked up the kettle, which was empty without a drop of water.

Judging from the shape and style of the kettle, it is a special product for travelers. Yun Kang was a little inexplicable, and he didn't expect to pick up a kettle in this empty place.
