Chapter 378 Stone Gate
Chapter 378 Stone Gate
"It doesn't feel like it."
Li Yue looked at the huge pool of magma in front of her with a frown on her face.
"Could there be another cave beneath the magma?"
In Lin Chuan's understanding, other immortal ruins are either those that are dedicated to finding the successor and therefore have carefully arranged various checkpoints, or those that have no chance at all and are only full of dangers.
But no matter which one it is, it will not be like the ruins here. There is nothing but countless ferocious beasts and a magma pool in the center. It is hard not to arouse suspicion.
"You'll know if you take a look."
Li Yue raised her wrist slightly and casually swiped her jade finger towards the void.
In an instant, the rolling magma in the magma pool seemed to be pushed left and right by an invisible giant hand, and a crack appeared in it.
"There really is something under this magma pool..."
Lin Chuan stared straight at the stone door at the bottom of the magma. He narrowed his eyes slightly and was about to use his spiritual vision to find out what was going on. In an instant, a strong feeling of dizziness came over him like a surging tide.
"Om."
At this moment, ripples suddenly appeared in the black and white lake in Lin Chuan's dantian.
A cool feeling suddenly came into his mind, instantly waking him up from the chaos.
Lin Chuan suddenly opened his eyes and turned his head eagerly to look at Li Yue, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground with a frown on her face.
"Sister Li!"
Lin Chuan's figure flashed and he came to Li Yue's side in an instant to check on her condition.
"die!"
At this moment, Li Yue suddenly opened her eyes, murderous intent in her eyes, and her fingers stopped at Lin Chuan's throat.
"Gulu."
Lin Chuan's Adam's apple rolled violently and he swallowed hard.
"Sister Li..."
The words were still on the tip of his tongue when they stopped abruptly. Li Yue stretched out her arm and pulled Lin Chuan into her arms.
"..."
"It's just an illusion, it's okay."
Lin Chuan's voice was soft and soothing. He raised his hand, slowly placed it on Li Yue's back, and patted it gently.
……
After a moment, Li Yue came back to her senses and felt the hand gently patting her back. In an instant, a blush quickly crept up her cheeks.
In a panic, she suddenly pushed Lin Chuan away from her arms and then quickly stood up.
"You...you didn't get hit?"
Li Yue lowered her head, her hair falling down, half covering her flushed cheeks.
"Well, due to my physical condition, illusions are basically ineffective on me."
Lin Chuan shook his head and explained calmly.
"..."
"Just now I was just..."
Li Yue bit her lower lip slightly, her hands nervously tugging at the corners of her clothes. Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Lin Chuan.
"What happened just now? Didn't Sister Li just wake up from the illusion?"
Lin Chuan frowned slightly, his face full of confusion.
"..."
"Ah."
Li Yue's gaze fell straight on Lin Chuan's face, and after a moment, she responded softly.
"That stone door is so strange, who knows what's inside? How about we continue to wait for the exit to open?"
Lin Chuan slowly stood up, glanced around, and made a suggestion to Li Yue.
"It was just an illusion. I was just not paying attention for a moment and fell into its trap. Now I will definitely not make the same mistake again."
Li Yue shook her head, took out a pill from the storage space and swallowed it, then looked straight at the stone gate, tightly grasped the jade flute in her slender hands, and slashed out fiercely.
"boom!"
The sword energy slammed into the stone door, making a dull sound, and then there was no movement at all, like a stone sinking into the sea.
Li Yue's pretty face flushed slightly, and she coughed a few times, pretending to be calm and said, "Ahem, I was just warming up."
As soon as the words fell, the jade flute was raised, spiritual power gathered, and another sharp sword energy hit the stone gate.
"boom!"
The dull sound was heard again, but the stone gate still showed no signs of shaking.
"It's okay, Sister Li is already very powerful. After all, this is the gate of the immortals, so it's normal that it can't be opened for a while."
Lin Chuan raised the corners of his mouth slightly and spoke softly to comfort her.
"..."
Li Yue pursed her lips tightly and said nothing, but her aura became increasingly fierce.
Just as she raised her jade flute high again and was about to strike the stone gate, something strange happened.
The ground beneath her feet shook violently without any warning. Li Yue was startled and instantly came to Lin Chuan and protected him.
The charred earth beneath their feet shook continuously, emitting a dull sound. In the blink of an eye, a group of humanoids, their bodies engulfed in blazing flames, appeared out of thin air and surrounded Li Yue and Lin Chuan.
"Sarah!"
"Sarah!"
"Sarah!"
The humanoid race, their bodies covered in flames, shouted in unison, their voices sharp and noisy, echoing all around.
Although Lin Chuan didn't understand, it was not difficult to tell from their murderous eyes that these were definitely not good words.
"Humans? How did you get in?"
At this moment, an old woman covered in green flames walked out slowly from the crowd with staggering steps, raised her head slightly, and looked at Lin Chuan and Li Yue.
"What does it have to do with you?"
Li Yue raised her eyebrows slightly, took a step forward, and the spiritual energy around her body surged faintly.
"This is my clan's ancestral land. Not only did you trespass here without permission, but you even dared to plot against it. Do you really think my clan is deserted?"
The old woman snorted coldly, and with a fierce wave of her hand, a ball of dark green flame, accompanied by a rolling heat wave, rushed towards Liyue.
"Playing with fire with me?"
Li Yue raised the corner of her mouth in disdain and sneered.
Before he finished speaking, a golden fire lotus suddenly flew out with a roar.
The golden fire lotus instantly collided with the green flame, erupting with a muffled sound, directly defeating it, and then continued to rush towards the old woman.
"Pfft."
The golden fire lotus instantly engulfed the old woman, but in the blink of an eye, the old woman reappeared at the same place unharmed, as if the scene of being engulfed by flames just now was just an illusion.
"Human Race, now that you are here, stay here forever!"
The old woman raised her hand and waved. Behind her, countless humanoid creatures covered in flames rushed towards Lin Chuan and the others like a surging wave of fire.
"Scatter flowers."
Li Yue picked up Lin Chuan and retreated explosively. At the same time, countless petals appeared out of thin air on the battlefield, floating towards the flaming humanoid creatures and instantly exploded above their heads.
But in the blink of an eye, those fire people who should have been destroyed in the gorgeous petals appeared in their original positions unharmed almost at the moment of death, as if the fatal attack they had just suffered was just an illusion.
"It's a bit tricky, let's get out of here first."
Li Yue frowned slightly, quickly glanced around, then locked onto a direction and rushed towards it.
"Want to leave? Ridiculous."
The old woman sneered and did not chase Li Yue, as if she was already trapped.
"Xiao Linchuan, the situation is getting tricky. There are quite a few people in the Tribulation Crossing stage here, and there are even some in the middle stage of the Tribulation Crossing stage. I'll hold them back for a while. You decide how to run first. When the time comes, I'll shake them off and come find you."
While dodging the attacks of several fire men in the Tribulation Crossing stage who appeared out of nowhere, Li Yue gave instructions to Lin Chuan in her arms.
