In the early morning, the warm sunlight shone down on the entrance of the cave. Ai Li woke up Wu Lian. After eating some dry food, the two went into the cave to explore.

The red sun rises outside the cave, but the inside of the cave is getting darker and darker. When it was so dark that he could barely see the road, Ai Li lit a fire.

The light of the fire fold shone on the cave wall, condensing into a faint light cluster. Wu Lian held Ai Li's hand and stared at the light cluster tightly, her heart calm. Having explored the last time he explored, he considered himself much braver.

After some time, we came to a fork in the road. Ai Li stopped to look.

Wu Lian pointed to a mark and said happily: "Sister, look, this is the mark left by my master. Let's follow this and we can find the dragon's back. ”

Ai Li reached out and touched it, and the mark of the stone was carved on the rock with a sharp weapon. The top is a semicircle, and the bottom is drawn by three scattered wave curves. The more she looked at it, the more it looked like a half-moon rising from the flames.

She found it interesting and asked, "Do you know what this mark means?"

"I don't know. Wulian shook her head.

Ai Li thought for a while and asked, "Your master should also know martial arts, right?" The rocks here are hard, and he can carve them so neatly, it should be that his internal strength is not weak.

Wu Lian couldn't help but be gloomy, "The master is naturally very powerful. I was rescued by the master from the bad guys. It's a pity that he always has something to do, and he doesn't spend much time with me. ”

Ai Li saw that his eyes were wet again, and hurriedly said, "It's not too early, let's go." ”

The two of them walked along the mark of the stone. The road is extremely tortuous, sometimes upward, sometimes downward, and sometimes you have to crawl on all fours.

I don't know how long I walked, but Ai Li suddenly stopped. Ahead is an extremely steep slope, with a black hole underneath, which looks extremely deep.

She said to Wulian, "You wait here for a while, and I will investigate." If it's all right, I'll call you down again. With that, she took the fire fold in her mouth and slid down the slope.

In the dark, time seems to stand still. Wu Lian felt her heart pounding. Ai Li was not beside him, his fear resurfaced, and his body trembled involuntarily. He clasped his arms around his shoulders, buried his head deeply, and gritted his teeth in wait.

About a cup of tea passed, and the call of Ai Li came from the bottom of the cave. He breathed a sigh of relief, closed his eyes, and slid down the steep slope.

The steep slope was extremely long, and from time to time the rocks bulged abruptly, and it hurt him. He closed his eyes tightly and did not dare to open them, but he felt the wind whistling in his ears, and his heart hung high, almost jumping out of his mouth.

Suddenly, his body shook violently, and there was a sudden pain in the back of his buttocks, as if he had hit a hard place. He cautiously opened his eyes and reached out to touch them. There was land all around, and it turned out to be to the bottom.

He stood up on the ground and called "sister" a few times, but Ai Li did not respond. In the distance, a fire flickered. He gritted his teeth and raced towards the firelight.

Under the firelight, Ai Li held the fire fold aloft and was engrossed in studying something.

Wulian ran to her side, gasping and standing, and looked over there.

A stone gate five or six feet high stood in front of him. In front of the door stood a huge stone figure more than two people tall. The stone man has a hideous appearance, like a human and a non-human, and has a single horn standing up high on his head. He held a large knife in his hand, grinned widely, and his eyes protruded to look down. The light of the fire caused the shadows on the stone man's face to change, as if he was about to raise his knife to kill in the next moment. Wulian only glanced at it, and didn't dare to look at his face again.

Ai Li lifted the fire fold and searched around the stone gate.

Wulian asked, "Sister, what are you looking for?"

Ai Li said: "Since there is a stone gate here, it must be passable. I've tried just now, but this stone door can't be opened by human means alone. Therefore, it should be controlled by another authority. ”

"What will the mechanism be?"

"I don't know. ”

Wulian was silent for a moment, and also helped to find it.

However, the two searched for a long time, but found nothing resembling a mechanism.

Ai Li said to Wu Lian: "You wait here, I'll look elsewhere." ”

"Look there!" Wu Lian suddenly pointed to the big sword in the stone man's hand and exclaimed excitedly, "His sword is exactly the same as the Golden Flame Divine Soldier!"

Ai Li looked up, and it was indeed so. It's just that the Golden Flame Divine Soldier is a super long knife in the eyes of ordinary people, but in the hands of tall stone people, it is only the length of an ordinary big knife.

She thought for a moment and took down the Golden Flame Divine Weapon. Handing the fire fold into Wu Lian's hand, she jumped to her feet and climbed onto the stone man's arm. She tentatively put the Golden Flame Divine Weapon into the stone man's hands. The Golden Flame Divine Weapon and the Stone Knife were unexpectedly in one place!

After waiting for a while, nothing unusual was seen. She carefully pushed the Golden Flame Divine Soldier.

The soft sound of the "horn" seemed to touch the mechanism, and the Golden Flame Divine Soldier suddenly shone brightly. Immediately afterwards, there was a "squeak" sound of the shaft wheel turning behind the stone man, and the stone door slowly opened inward.

As soon as the stone door opened, a strong wind blew from inside the door, and the fire fold in Wulian's hand was blown out at once.

Before he could think about it, Ai Li took down the Golden Flame Divine Weapon, jumped off the stone man, pulled up Wu Lian, and walked towards the open stone gate.

Entering the stone gate, there was a sudden light in front of them, and both of them were shocked by the scenery in front of them.

This is a huge natural cave, dozens of feet high, with no end in sight. The walls of the cave are slanted upwards, and the roof of the cave forms an irregular circle. On the top of the sky-like cave, there are countless small holes. The sunlight shone down from the small hole, gathering into golden pillars of light of different thicknesses, like a dream.

"It's so beautiful!" Wulian exclaimed softly, her eyes confused.

A fresh breeze blew through, blowing Ai Li's long hair. She stroked her hair, a hint of intoxication in her eyes. The hardships of coming turned into a sigh in this instant, and this place was as beautiful as a fairyland.

After a moment of silence, the two continued on their way. Along the way, you will encounter all kinds of strange flowers and plants that have never been seen before.

The flowers and plants here are extremely vigorous, and they are several meters high. The two of them walked under the paths and leaves of flowers and plants, as if walking under the trees in the forest. Dragonflies as huge as eaglets flew by, unaware of their arrival. Further on, several long-necked green animals were slowly munching on blades of grass. Ai Li took Wu Lian and passed vigilantly at their feet. The animals glanced at the two of them, and then continued to graze with their heads down.

The animals here are surprisingly docile. Ai couldn't help but think of Mo Xiaoyu, the little sister who studied medicine. If she could come here, she would be ecstatic.

As we walked forward, countless tiny springs gushed out of the ground, gradually converging into a small silver river, which meandered and flowed "with a bang".

As they walked along the river, they heard the rumbling sound of water in front of them. As he searched for the sound, a waterfall flowed down from the high mountain in front of him.

This mountain is very strange. Halfway up the mountain, it's just an ordinary mountain. Above the mountainside was a platform, an icicle as thick as a mountainside, reaching the top of the cave. From a distance, the mountain seems to have been cut off by someone and replaced with a silver icicle that supports the roof of the cave.

Wu Lian excitedly pointed to the icicle and said to Ai Li: "That icicle is the dragon's spine that the master said!"

Ai Li nodded and led him to climb the peak.

When they came to the pillar, the two stopped to watch.

The icicles are so big that it takes dozens of people to hug them. If you look closely, there seems to be something else inside the icicles. Ai Li studied for a while, and Fang suddenly realized: this is actually a stone pillar with ice on the outside. It's just that the ice is extremely thick, more than a meter, and it glistens in the sunlight, making the stone pillar look like an icicle from afar.

Ai Liyun leaned into the icicle with his internal force, and vaguely felt that the stone pillar inside the icicle was colder than the ice outside.

After a moment's thought, she understood the cause of the icicles. The inner pillar should be a large cold stone. The water vapor in the cave rises, and the cold stone condenses into water, and the water flows down the pillar, gradually freezing into ice. Over time, the stone pillars became icicles.

She secretly sighed: natural creation, ghostly workmanship. Seeing such a wonderful scene is worth the trip.

Retracting her internal strength, she confirmed to Wu Lian, "How do you know that this pillar is the dragon's spine that the Lingshi asked me to cut off?"

Wu Lian said with certainty: "The master said that he had seen a treasure map. On the treasure map, there is a pillar on the dragon's back. Therefore, he believed that the dragon's spine of the mountain should be a strange pillar. This pillar is so magical, it must be the dragon's back!"

Ai Li took out the Golden Flame Divine Soldier and gestured at the icicle, and said to him, "You go farther, be careful of hurting you." ”

Hearing this, Wulian walked far to the side of the mountainside.

Ai Li tried to slash with the Golden Flame Divine Weapon. The sound of knives and icicles striking each other spread far away, echoing endlessly in the cave, but the icicles did not move.

What a hard icicle! If you don't do your best, I'm afraid you won't even be able to break through this ice.

She used enough internal strength, and the golden flame divine soldier immediately skyrocketed. After another loud bang, the icicles finally made a crack an inch deep.

Ai Li's eyes lit up, and it seemed that this icicle was not indestructible. With a little effort, you can always cut it off with a single sword.

After a moment's pause, she used her strength again to slash at the icicle again.

Suddenly, a person came running from the bottom of the mountain and shouted at her, "Demon girl, you can find this place!" But it was Zhan Feipeng who followed.

"Let go of Brother Lian!" Ai Li said angrily, swinging his knife at him. The Golden Flame Divine Soldier struck at it with the huge internal force that was intended to slash at the icicle.

Seeing that she was attacking extremely fiercely, Zhan Feipeng was startled and hurriedly threw Wulian away. He drew his knife in his hand and fought with all his might.

Ai Li pursued him all the way, and he was already holding back his anger, and he was disturbed by him at this critical moment, which made him even more annoyed. Therefore, when she made a move, she was merciless.

Zhan Feipeng lost to her for a while, so he had the heart to compete.

The two knives hit each other in one place, but the two of them didn't stop, each cheering up,-for-tat.

The red flame qi and the black energy collided violently, bursting out with extremely dazzling brilliant light.

After a while, the two of them realized at the same time, and the internal strength of the two sides was similar, and their strength was not up or down.

However, at this moment, the two of them are no longer allowed to stop. As long as one side is slightly weaker, the strong internal force of the other side will be ruthlessly defeated.

Both of them are brave people, and neither of them will back down, and they will grit their teeth and work harder. Zhan Feipeng's forehead was bruised. A fine layer of sweat appeared on the bridge of Ai Li's nose.

"You crazy woman!" Zhan Feipeng shouted angrily, and suddenly exerted his strength. A python travels thousands of miles, causing its black energy to skyrocket several times, like a giant python in the rolling dark clouds, thundering attack.

Seeing this, Ai Li was not to be outdone, and also used the Red Flame Knife all-out attack method Phoenix spread its wings. The bright red flame rose into the air, like a phoenix in fire rushing into the sky.

The two of them launched their tricks at the same time, and the brilliance was so dazzling that it was impossible to face it. There is only one consequence of such a desperate attack. That is: never die!
