Dongfang Ziyan slowly climbed down the rough rock wall in the crater, it was pitch black, but fortunately, he used the fire control technique to create a fireball to illuminate.

He was in the volcano now, but it wasn't a magma field as he had imagined, it was pitch black with stones and nothing else, and it was desperately dark.

"This crater is inverted cone-shaped, and it should be almost to the end." Ziyan gasped, although his physical fitness was very good, he was also a little tired from climbing up the mountain.

Finally arrived at the place where he landed, Ziyan felt that it seemed to be the end, so he held the fireball in his hand and shone it around.

I saw that there were caves all around, faintly revealing a biting cool air, and there was no volcanic performance, which made people very strange. Ziyan looked confident, and he wiped the dust off his face.

"I don't know that there are many forks in the ground here, but I can sense the presence of the fire element." Ziyan slowly closed his eyes, the heart of Yu Yan had already captured the heat source, and he patrolled the heat source into a fork in the road.

It took a few hours to walk, and when Ziyan came out of the narrow hole exhausted, he sat on the ground, "It's finally here, the source of heat ......" He gasped.

Suddenly, he realized that something was wrong, and at that moment his physical strength dropped, the fireball of illumination went out, and the surroundings were plunged into darkness again.

Over here...... Still nothing!

Loss and tiredness welled up in his heart, Zi Yan's body fell to the ground limply, and it took nearly a day, but Zi Yan still didn't find the artifact, and he didn't even see a little fire source. Dongfang Ziyan leaned against the stone, stunned without saying a word, he was thinking about where he had gone wrong? He has already relied on the heart and mind of the flame to get here, he has really tried his best, is it really not enough talent?

Fortunately, Ziyan is used to this kind of frustration. People who grow up in setbacks are generally strong.

"Mom......" Ziyan felt tired all over, he slowly closed his eyes and fell asleep.

I don't know how long I slept, Ziyan was woken up by a hint of coolness on his face, and it seemed that water was dripping on his face from above.

Ziyan looked up, and in the vague darkness, he vaguely felt that there was something above his head, but it was too dark here, even if someone was facing each other, he couldn't see it.

"Tick ...... Tick ...... "Two more drops fell on Ziyan's body, he subconsciously touched it, and twisted his fingers, [Blood?! Ziyan was shocked, and immediately sniffed with his nose, and sure enough, there was a strong smell of blood.

Dongfang Ziyan's body was shocked, and he immediately stood up, nervously he rushed to the other end, the fire lit up, and the cave immediately lit up.

The scene that appeared in front of him made Ziyan unforgettable for the rest of his life: it was a person who was pierced through the heart by a spear, his body was nailed alive to the rock wall, and it was the blood of that person that dripped on him just now.

This is a living corporal punishment?!

Ziyan swallowed his saliva, he took out a short knife from the phagoagocytic sac, walked over slowly, and gently stabbed the man's body with the knife. The man didn't react at all, it looked like he was dead, a dead corpse.

【Can't be care......less】Ziyan carried a heart, his body slowly floated into the air, he floated behind the dead body, held the end of the spear in his right hand, and pulled it out with a little force, but the spear was deeply inserted into the rock wall, Ziyan could only pull it out hard, using all his strength, and finally a buzzing sound sounded, it was a silver spear, due to excessive force, Ziyan fell to the ground, and the dead body also fell to the ground.

Ziyan gasped and stood up, supporting himself with the silver gun, he looked at the gun in his hand, there were ancient lines on it, but it was rusty, which meant that he had been here for a long time.

"It should be the monk who broke in before, he died a miserable death." Ziyan walked over helplessly, turned over the man's body, the man's upper clothes were already in tatters, but the strange thing was that there was no rancid smell, the man's face was covered by long black hair, Ziyan saw the clothes he was wearing, which aroused his curiosity, it was obviously a prison uniform.

On the back of the clothes is written "Watershed".

"Watershed?! Prisoners of the watershed? Ziyan chuckled in his heart, "How could the prisoners from the river basin appear here?" ”

The so-called river basin is a general term, and most people like it will think that it is a prison for felons in the Three Realms. It was undoubtedly a prison, but it was no ordinary prison.

The river basin is a place that existed before the establishment of the Three Realms, and before the Three Realms were demarcated by Hongjun Dila, the river basin existed in another space. Today, the river basin is a judicial body that is neutral between the three realms, the so-called "neutral".

The river basin boundary is divided into four parts: the new prison, the snow region, the flame gorge, and the ethereal realm, of which except for the new prison, the other three places are no man's land. And the new prison is the place where the prisoners of the Three Realms are held, and the place where the prisoners are held is the legendary [Tower of Babel], the tallest building in the Three Realms.

The prisoners in the new prison Babel Tower are the most vicious criminals in the world, but why did they die here if they were felons? Dongfang Ziyan had never heard of a prisoner who could escape from the river basin.

Zi Yan touched the person's belt by the light of the fire, the belt was made of all-metal, and he could see at a glance that it was a dark iron belt, and there was a text on the belt buckle, which was the ancient incantation [Eastern Emperor].

Although Ziyan didn't understand what the Eastern Emperor was, he still took off the belt buckle and put it into the devouring sac. At this moment, something surprising happened, when Ziyan saw that person's face, that person turned out to be ...... Laughed.

Immediately afterwards, the man's eyes opened, and before Zi Yan could react, a purple light flowed out of the eyes of the originally dead person, and rushed directly into Zi Yan's eyes, Zi Yan only felt a sharp pain, he screamed and covered his eyes.

【Damn! Ziyan gritted his teeth and fell to the ground.

On the top of the volcano, the Dragon Emperor was anxiously waiting, Yan Wei was also hesitating, and only Suzaku was sitting on the side, as steady as Mount Tai.

"It's been a day and a night, why haven't you come back yet?!" The Dragon Emperor was a little impatient, "You won't be deliberately making things difficult for him, will you!" He was still young, not comparable to his father! ”

"How can the artifact be easily obtained, if it can be obtained easily, then the artifact will not know who will fall into anyone's hands for a long time!" Suzaku snapped.

Although Yan Wei wanted to ask how Suzaku Ziyan was doing, he didn't know how to speak, so he had to say to the Dragon Emperor, "Lord Dragon Emperor, young master, he ...... It should be all right, right? ”

"Don't worry, the young master is not a person who can have an accident so easily, he is Dongfang Xiao's son, we have to believe him, wait slowly." Although the Dragon Emperor said this, he was also uneasy in his heart, because after all, it was the place where the artifact was sealed, and the degree of danger could be imagined.

Suddenly, Suzaku raised his head, his indifferent eyes widened, looked in the direction of the mountain, and said slowly, "Someone is coming." ”

Sure enough, a song sounded in the distance, and the song stopped abruptly, and a figure leaped up from the bottom of the mountain silently, stepping on the ground on its toes, and came to them in the blink of an eye.

The scruffy coat and the rickety body seemed to be unable to stand even on his feet, and the man sat down on the stone as soon as he came, stretching his waist lazily.

The Dragon Emperor's golden dragon pupils stared at the comer.

Suzaku remained motionless and did not say a word.

"Vermilion Bird Heavenly Venerable, Flame Demon Dragon Emperor, and the famous beast gods are all gathered here, it's really shocking." The person who came said with a smile, his voice unusually young.

"Gatekeeper, what are you doing here?" The Dragon Emperor asked coldly.

Before he could say three words, a strong murderous aura permeated, Yan Wei looked at this scene and felt that something was going to happen
