Chapter 13: The Mysterious Cave

In the evening, the light in the dense deep forest became more and more dim, and a convoy of more than two dozen people slowly moved forward. An ordinary boy dressed in black held a well-behaved little girl of four or five years old, sitting in front of the carriage and leisurely driving the carriage. From time to time, the boy bowed his head and replied to a girl's innocent fairy tale, which made the little girl laugh for a while. Compared to the mercenaries around him, he seems a little out of place.

The young man was Yuan Yi who left Liucheng to travel, and when he saw the big bag prepared by the third uncle, Yuan Yi almost didn't roll his eyes, fortunately he had a storage necklace, otherwise he would have been crushed to death before he went out. Before leaving, the third uncle handed himself a letter and asked him to go to Murphy, the alchemist of Hogg City, who was a sixth-grade alchemist and also the third uncle's teacher, and the third uncle had always felt that his talent for refining medicine was definitely better than his. For refining medicine, Yuan Yi has always maintained a strong interest, in the previous life he had done biological research for more than ten years, but in this life he saw a strange creature but had a unique sense of familiarity.

Now he can use the fire elemental power, but Xue Mo's blue and purple flame doesn't even know what kind of alien fire it is, and it can't be used to refine any medicine, and every time he burns all the medicine tripods and medicinal materials. Yuan Yi and the third uncle tried every possible way, but they still couldn't solve it, and the third uncle could only hope for his teacher.

Hogg City is located to the west of the Kyle Empire, and can only be reached by crossing the perimeter of the Sunset Mountains within the Empire. Coming to the familiar Sunset Mountains, Yuan Yi met a caravan going to Hogg City in the small town of La Bu, and joined the caravan under the introduction of the old village chief. The little girl is the youngest daughter of the caravan owner, and the elves are eccentric, and the questions she asks sometimes make Yuan Yi laugh.

The mercenary who took the lead in "camping and resting" shouted, a bald man with a thick black beard, a smiling Chao Yuanyi walked over, rubbed his hands and said, "Little brother, let's make stewed barbecue for my brother today" Looking at the bald man's funny expression, the mercenaries around him laughed.

"Third child, aren't you ashamed" A man with deep facial features and a resolute expression came over on a horse, making fun of the bald man. Seeing the boss coming, the bald man shook his head and was about to walk away. Yuan Yi held back a smile and said, "You need to kill a few wild boars or hares, clean them and send them to the open space in front."

"Okay" The bald head's eyes lit up, and he shouted loudly and rushed out like an arrow. The surrounding mercenaries laughed again, and the little girl in her arms also clapped happily and applauded, "Yu'er also wants to eat barbecue meat" and pinched the little girl's soft little face, Yuan Yi turned out a small cloth bag from his arms, which was actually taken out of the necklace. Jump out of the carriage and make a fire.

After a while, the bald man walked back quickly with three huge wild boars, threw the wild boars on the three barbecue grills, Yuan Yi skillfully controlled the fire, sprinkled spices, and bursts of fragrance continued to fly out of the barbecue grills. Except for a few mercenaries guarding the carriage, the rest of the mercenaries and caravan people all gathered around.

Because it's just the periphery of the Sunset Mountain Range, there are generally no powerful magical beasts appearing, and everyone seems to be relatively relaxed. While eating barbecue, the mercenaries scrambled to tell their adventure stories, and Yuan Yi listened to it very funny.

"What are you guys, the last time I experienced it was thrilling. Some time ago, Old Beard participated in the expedition of the temporary mercenary group in this Sunset Mountains. At that time, there was also a king-level powerhouse in our team, and we walked not far away, and saw a cave from a distance, and wanted to say that we would rest at night. As soon as you get close to that cave, it's like stepping into lava. As soon as the king-level powerhouse was about to take another step forward, a huge cyan giant bird flew out of the cave and spit out a mouthful of flames, instantly turning everyone at the entrance of the cave into a cloud of ashes. ”

"It's all ashes, why are you still there, haha" A mercenary immediately retorted, not believing the old beard's nonsense, and teased. How could there be a Demon Beast that killed the King Rank in seconds on the periphery of this Sunset Mountain Range, wouldn't it be above the Holy Rank.

"Fortunately, the old beard saw that the situation was wrong, so he hid under the big rock in front of the cave and narrowly saved his life." The old beard shouted unconvinced.

"You're just greedy for life and afraid of death," the mercenaries laughed loudly.

The old beard Nuo Nuo said, "That can't be sent to death in vain, that cave doesn't know how weird it is, don't believe you go to see it yourself, just go three miles west here." The mercenaries laughed, not taking the old beard's words seriously, and fell asleep after laughing.

"Master, I feel strong fluctuations in fire elemental energy" Xue Mo's words resounded in Yuan Yi's sea of consciousness.

"What, Xue Mo" Yuan Yi was a little surprised.

"Master, let's go over and take a look, there is no aura of powerful demonic beasts around." Xue Mo said with a little expectation. Yuan Yi pondered, quietly got up, and dived in the direction that Xue Mo felt.

Seeing the huge cave in front of him, Yuan Yi suddenly remembered the old beard's words, and asked suspiciously, "Xue Mo, is there no breath of demonic beasts in it, there should be a blue bird with strength in the Holy Rank"

"Master, Xue Mo didn't feel it, Xue Mo's current soul power below the god level can be detected, but there is no demonic beast breath in the cave, only the power of the fire element, as if it is a precursor to the formation of heaven and earth treasures."

Feeling the blazing temperature of the cave, Yuan Yi summoned Xue Mo, and the colorful light instantly isolated the surrounding aura, and all the discomfort on his body disappeared. The aura on Xue Mo's body illuminated the surrounding range of about three meters, and he walked in cautiously, the deep cave was huge and narrow, and Yuan Yi felt that he had been walking towards the ground.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, Yuan Yi vaguely saw a fire shining in front of him. After a while, a huge cave the size of a football field appeared in front of Yuan Yi. The huge cliff blocked Yuan Yi's steps, and he looked down at the roaring red magma about ten meters below his feet, and he was afraid for a while.
