The two of them were talking and had reached the last formation base.
Xing Fei looked everywhere carefully, while Mu Qing stood next to the stone tablet, subconsciously placing his palms on it, and said: "Although this last formation base has not been completely destroyed, it has obviously lost its original function. I am thinking Were you misled in the first place?"
Xing Fei looked at the formation that was broken into many pieces. Hot breath was emerging from the cracks, distorting the space. Although the temperature was extremely high, there were no cyan fireworks spurting out.
"You mean that the destruction of the formation base will not make the Nether Flame Formation lose its ability to suppress the underground fire veins?"
"Yes." Mu Qing nodded and said thoughtfully: "However, Bai Hao does intend to use the underground fire veins. We have guessed his purpose, but I am afraid only he knows what he has to do to achieve his purpose."
Xing Fei sighed softly, looked around the empty place, and finally landed on the stone tablet next to Mu Qing, and said in a deep voice: "Compared with other places, this formation base only has this extra stone tablet, is there any secret? "
Mu Qing took his hand away and glanced at the stone tablet. The complete cultivation technique recorded in the stone tablet seemed to have to be felt by a fire-attribute spirit body. When it came to Murong Jing, Mu Qing did not elaborate and said: "This should It’s the foundation stone that thousands of people laid when they built the Nether Flame Formation, and there are records on it. If Bai Hao is really still alive and kicking, he might come back here."
Xing Fei looked cautious and agreed: "Everything he did was to open the blood sacrifice array. There is probably no faster way to collect blood energy than this. I plan to arrange manpower to guard here at all times."
If Bai Hao is still alive, I am afraid that just a few elite Guards soldiers will not be able to stop him at all, and it is very likely that even the news will not be spread. Mu Qing hesitated to speak, and finally nodded.
Xing Fei said: "I will reduce the time they guard and increase the number of rotations, so that if anything happens, they can respond in time. Unfortunately, it would be better if there was more time. Maybe Geshan will There is new news.”
Mu Qing knew that he was talking about the people returning to the inner city, and said with some emotion: "Some things are really difficult to change by the will of one or a few people, and few of them can understand your painstaking efforts.
"It's just that the strange thing about the world is that when they have a home and can't go back, they must also blame you for not understanding their feelings."
Xing Fei gathered his mood and nodded: "Everyone has his own difficulties. Now I no longer demand perfection in everything, I just try my best."
Xing Fei looked at Mu Qing and said, "You really impressed me. I didn't expect you to consider ordinary people."
Mu Qing pursed his lips, half-smiling. The reason why he thought of this was because he became homeless many years ago.
The two walked out of the formation. Mu Qing, who was standing at the entrance of the passage, suddenly turned his head and looked to the left. Xing Fei's eyes also followed his movements, and his face suddenly became solemn.
In the passage on the left, the bloody smell suddenly surged in like a wave. It felt like mud and dust splashed by a heavy rain on a hot summer day. It was thick and had a suffocating smell.
"You're right here."
After Mu Qing left a message, he rushed towards the passage on the left, and Xing Fei followed him without hesitation.
The two of them didn't advance far before Mu Qing stopped. Xing Fei glanced over Mu Qing's shoulder, looked forward, and took a breath of cold air.
What appeared in front of their eyes was a bright yellow magma cave. The magma was bubbling, and the terrifying high temperature was released from the broken bubbles, mixed with tiny fireworks, twisting the space above the magma into hot ribbons, so that the two of them stood there for so long. , still not seeing the edge of this space.
"I didn't expect this underground fire vein to be so close to everyone." Xing Fei murmured with a look of shock.
Mu Qing focused his eyes, pointed at a certain magma zone and said, "Where are you looking?"
Xing Fei took two steps forward and looked in the direction of Mu Qing's finger. The magma in that area happened to be surging at this time, stacking some black iron-like things on the surface.
Xing Fei carefully identified it for a long time before Shen replied: "It's a fragment of armor..."
Mu Qing looked at the ground and pulled Xing Fei back two steps. After squatting down, he easily opened a stone with his fingers and said in a concentrated voice: "This space is full of blood. This hole didn't appear when we came here." , seems to be the reason why these stones have been exposed to high temperatures for a long time and been corroded.”
Xing Fei narrowed his eyes and asked to himself: "If the disappeared guards all lost their feet and fell into the magma, then where did they fall from?"
He had raised his head when he spoke, and Mu Qing also thought of this. When he looked up, he saw a huge hole above the magma space.
The two of them ignored each other and saw a hint of surprise in each other's eyes. The two of them did not hesitate. After remembering the location, they returned to the upper space. When they found the vicinity of the cave, they lost their target.
Mu Qing spread his spiritual consciousness and finally found the mechanism in front of a stone wall. When he opened it, a wave of heat hit his face. What's strange is that the space behind the stone wall is extremely dark, and there are no holes in the ground that reveal the magma below.
Mu Qing summoned the Demon Suppressing Sword and shot it towards the ground somewhere, but the Demon Suppressing Sword directly submerged and hit the ground. Mu Qing raised his eyebrows and said: "It's an illusion formation, maybe it was arranged by Bai Hao a long time ago."
Mu Qing used his flying sword to detect the boundary of the cave, and walked directly over. The demon-suppressing sword flew to his side and burst into scarlet sword light. It illuminated the ground and at the same time absorbed the swaying blood energy.
Xing Fei squatted down and said, "There are scratches. It seems that someone did fall from here, but I don't understand. How could they fall from here?"
Mu Qing stretched out his hand to hold the Demon Suppressing Sword, looked around with a much more relaxed expression, and said: "Maybe there was another maze before, but after looking for it for so long, I finally have a direction."
Xing Fei was stunned, stood up, and said: "If they fell into the magma, it would be easy to explain that there would be no bones left. I will ask everyone to be careful not to touch the stone wall at will in the future. You must not go without a proven route." .”
Xing Fei took the initiative and said: "Although tomorrow's negotiation is a situation, you still have to face those people in the city. I'm troubling you today. Let's go."
Mu Qing shook his head and said: "If Bai Hao is still alive, it will be really troublesome, but after being here for so long, we really should go back."
Mu Qing said that he was about to put the Demon Suppressing Sword into his pouch, but at this moment the Demon Suppressing Sword trembled, and even wanted to rush into the magma below. Mu Qing thought that the Demon Suppressing Sword was greedy for the blood there, and forced it Put the Demon Suppressing Sword into the sword pouch.
After the two left, at least a quarter of an hour passed before a figure climbed out of the hot magma.
There are no traces of the original appearance on his face, and there are fewer sarcomas on his body. The open flesh has been eroded by the terrifying high temperature, and there are puffs of blood mist scattered around.
The expression on Bai Hao's face was extremely strange, with a twist of pain mixed with a bit of joy, and a weak look that was hard to describe with excitement. He gasped and said, "I didn't expect that blood energy can be refined in this way, Mu Qing, then... In two days, I will make you lose everything!”
