The third layer of the Fire Dragon Cave, the Purgatory Labyrinth.

The Fire Dragon Cave is one of the three major dangerous places owned by the Tiancheng Sword Sect, and it is also the underground space with the greatest value, and every year, thousands of disciples go down to the cave to practice, mine, and hunt, contributing a steady stream of wealth to the sect.

However, the vast majority of the disciples of the Sword Sect only penetrated into the second layer of the Black Hell Forest at most, and the purgatory labyrinth of the third layer was a Jedi that made them awe-inspired.

Legend has it that in the deepest part of the Purgatory Labyrinth, there are hidden top-level demon beasts that can rival the supernatural powerhouses!

And this is only the middle layer of the Fire Dragon Cave, the lowest layer of the Abyss Flame Cave, where only a few peerless powerhouses of the Heavenly City Sword Sect have broken into it for thousands of years, and one of them has even fallen inside.

For Qin Yun, who had just stepped into the realm of Huagang, the Purgatory Labyrinth was already an extremely dangerous place.

No one can tell how big the Purgatory Labyrinth is, due to the existence of the Earth Fire Fountain and the Yan River, the crust in the depths of the Fire Dragon Cave changes extremely frequently, and the terrain and landform may change at any time, so there is no map available for use at all.

On the surface, the Purgatory Labyrinth is an underground space composed of huge igneous rock tunnels, which are full of cave fire springs, and the air full of inflammation is filled with a strong sulfur smell, and you can see the rushing Yan River and the Yan Lake with slurry bubbles everywhere.

But the Purgatory Labyrinth is definitely not a forbidden area for life, not only are there plants and spirit grasses that can adapt to high temperatures and flames, but there are also countless powerful demon beasts lurking in the Cave Yan River, no matter who dares to break into their territory. The most ferocious attack is bound to be!

Qin Yun spent half a day. Finally from the ground deep into the labyrinth of purgatory.

His entire body consisted of limbs and a head. The surface is all covered with a translucent, crimson barrier of power, which looks like pieces of armor that are simply put together.

This is the true gang armor unique to the Huagang powerhouse, but Qin Yun's current cultivation is not high, and he has not yet been able to reach the point of emborishing the Huagang armor, so it looks very rough and simple on the surface.

But this layer of protection has a power that far exceeds the true qi of the body!

Qin Yun spent most of his sect's contribution for this, and obtained a copy of the Qianyang Zhengang secret book from the Tianji Palace, and after three days of closed-door penance and the help of the Qiankun Great World, he initially mastered this set of methods for condensing the Zhengang armor.

Qianyang Zhengang is one of the five secret techniques of the Heavenly City Sword Sect. It is said that when cultivating to the highest level, the condensed Zhengang armor can withstand the blows of the supernatural powerhouse, completely ignoring the attacks of the innate masters!

If it weren't for Qin Yun winning the battle championship of the West Sea Martial Arts Association for the sect, with his status and qualifications in the Sword Sect, no matter how much the sect contributed, he would not be able to exchange this secret technique of the heart method.

Under the protection of Qianyang Zhengang's armor, all the poisonous smoke and poison that diffused in the labyrinth were filtered and blocked, but the ubiquitous flame power in the Fire Dragon Cave was able to penetrate and be continuously absorbed by Qin Yun.

The flame power in the purgatory labyrinth is several times stronger than that of the second layer of the Black Hell Forest, and those with almost no strength can gain a foothold here at all, and may even be roasted alive into jerky!

But Qin Yun could rely on the mental method secret of the sixth layer of the Jiuyang Divine Skill. Absorb and condense the invading flame power into an innate Zhengang to maintain the Qianyang Zhengang armor. And then you can experience it in the purgatory labyrinth for a long time.

Despite this, when Qin Yun walked in the huge igneous tunnel of the purgatory labyrinth, he was still walking on thin ice and extremely cautious, and at the same time, he also opened the Qiankun Spiritual Sense, and responded to the sudden attack of the demon beast at any time.

The large and small caves on the surrounding rock walls are the natural nests of monsters.

But he explored all the way and walked for at least a few miles, until he stood at the fork in the road at the end of the tunnel, and he did not encounter any danger, and all the rumored terrible monsters seemed to have disappeared.

Qin Yun had collected a lot of medicinal herbs on the road, and the quality of the spiritual herbs that could grow here was often very high, and he had taken on seven or eight sect tasks in one go before going down to the Fire Dragon Cave, half of which were collection tasks.

However, Qin Yun encountered a small trouble in front of him, and he still went to the left.

With no maps to refer to, exploring the Purgatory Labyrinth is a matter of luck, with forks in the road and no one knowing which one leads to where, so any choice can be right or wrong, depending on the explorer's luck.

If you are lucky and choose the right one, you may be able to find a rare spirit grass or spirit jade, but if you are unlucky, you will encounter a powerful demon beast, and it is normal for the corpse to fall into it.

Qin Yun only hesitated for a moment, then walked towards the tunnel on the right.

The heat in this tunnel seemed to be even stronger, and the ground was covered with thick rock silt and fire sand, which creaked when stepped on, and the flowing sand particles could easily flood the instep.

After walking a distance of about forty or fifty steps, Qin Yun suddenly had a whim and looked up.

This glance immediately made a discovery, only to see that on the top wall of the rock more than ten zhang high, shining like a dense starry light, although all the light was faint and dim, it could not escape Qin Yun's sharp eyes.

Fire Spirit Jade!

Qin Yun was immediately overjoyed, he had not gone down to the Fire Dragon Cave once or twice, of course, he was very familiar with the most precious products in the cave, these starlights were all refractions of the jade body exposed by the spirit jade ore, and the number was hundreds or thousands!

Qin Yun didn't take the spirit jade elixir and other external objects very seriously, but now his interest in the spirit jade was far greater than before, because the core source that was entrenched in the sea of knowledge and evolved from the Qiankun Heaven Replenishing Stone needed endless energy to replenish and recover.

According to the Star Spirit, who controls the nuclear source, the nuclear source has only recovered a very small part of the energy at present, and if he uses his supernatural powers, or wants to get the help of the Star Spirit, he needs to consume the nuclear source energy.

The source of nuclear source energy can be the innate true gang he cultivated, or it can be the evil fire, but the best and most stable source is definitely the spirit jade, especially the top-grade spirit jade.

Qin Yun was originally a rich reserve of spirit jade, almost all of which were filled into this bottomless pit, but it was far from being able to meet the requirements of the star spirit, and he went to the Fire Dragon Cave to experience not only to quickly improve his realm cultivation, but also to find the fire spirit jade on the other hand.

I didn't expect to be so lucky, and I found it the first time I went down to the purgatory labyrinth.

You must know that the location of these fire spirit jade mines is very special, and ordinary people will carefully pay attention to the left and right when they walk here, unless they are attacked by flying demon beasts, where will they look up.

Although it was difficult to collect these fire spirit jades hidden on the top wall of more than ten zhang high, it was also difficult for Qin Yun.

He carefully observed the surrounding environment, took a few steps in the direction of the right, and suddenly jumped high, and when the whole person jumped to the top, his right foot suddenly stepped on a protruding rock like lightning, and with the help of the force, he turned around and threw himself towards the cave wall in the left direction.

Kankan was about to hit the stone wall, but Qin Yun's left foot had already kicked the rock first, and then rose again and flew back to the right side.

In this way, with the help of the uneven igneous rocks on the stone walls on the left and right, Qin Yun reached the top of the cave more than ten zhang high in an instant, and his left hand held a claw that poked out like lightning upwards and plunged into the dark red rock!

The five fingers infused with the power of the innate Zhengang were comparable to divine weapons, piercing through the hard and hot fire rock, Qin Yun retracted his fingers slightly, and the whole person hung on the top of the cave like a gibbon.

Qin Yun had already seen the location in advance, there were pieces of spirit jade ore inlaid on the surrounding rock walls, and he calmly grabbed the spirit jade ore with his right hand, and then stored it in the Qiankun space.

For a while, the gravel dust and dust poured down, and pieces of high-quality spiritual jade ore were pocketed by Qin Yun.

When the place within reach was hollowed out, Qin Yun then reached out and inserted his right hand into the cave wall, replacing his left hand to continue collecting, ensuring that no piece of precious spiritual jade would slip through the net.

Not long after, Qin Yun collected hundreds of pieces of spirit jade.

Creak!

Just as he was in high spirits and satisfied, suddenly two sharp howls came from ahead, and a black shadow flew towards his location like lightning!

Qin Yun immediately woke up, stopped collecting, and instantly prepared for battle.

Flying in was a huge bat, its wings spread out more than five feet, its body covered with dark red scales, an ugly toad-like head with fangs exposed, and a pair of scarlet eyes full of fierce light!

What is special is that between the swings of its wings, there is a faint glow of fire, and countless fire points are shaken up and down the tips of its wings, gliding in the air with a long trajectory of flames.

Labyrinth Fire Bat! Qin Yun immediately recognized its origin, and his heart was slightly shocked.

The Labyrinth Fire Bat is a mid-level demon beast, and it is not difficult to kill it with Qin Yun's current strength, but the trouble is that the Labyrinth Fire Bat is a demon beast that lives in groups, and the appearance of a fire bat means that there are dozens or hundreds of the same kind behind it!

A labyrinth fire bat is easy to deal with, and hundreds of them are definitely terrifying and formidable enemies!

Squeak!

When the Labyrinth Fire Bat rushed into a place twenty steps away from Qin Yun, its mouth suddenly opened, sending out a sharp sonic impact towards Qin Yun.

The surrounding air shook suddenly, ripples like water ripples appeared, and an invisible air arrow shot towards Qin Yun's chest at lightning speed!

Without hesitation, Qin Yun raised his right palm and slapped it forward, condensing the palm strength of the innate Zhengang and colliding head-on with the qi arrow, instantly shattering the latter and annihilating it, and the palm wind that broke through the air even bombarded the body of the maze fire bat behind.

With a flick of Qin Yun's wrist, an invisible sword qi leaked out from the ring finger of his right hand, shooting towards the unbalanced labyrinth fire bat, and the qi broke through the air and let out a sharp whistling sound! )
