Unintentionally transmigrated into a background villainess role, Yu Qing feels this is right up her alley – torturing the male lead and main heroine has to be fun, right?
But before she cou...
Upon reaching the location, she realized that her guess seemed to be true. An extremely powerful being was likely being suppressed here.
Yan Qing noticed that the cave was surrounded by broken silver metal chains, which looked like they had been forcibly broken by some method. There were many broken chains scattered all around.
In addition, there used to be a statue on each side of the cave entrance, but now the upper part of the statue has been destroyed, leaving only rubble on the ground, making it impossible to tell what the statue was.
But these were no problem for Yan Qing. The lower half of the statue was still there, and coincidentally, she had actually seen this statue before.
In the nameless temple on Mount Qingcheng, in that solitary main hall, the lower half of the Yaksha statue enshrined is exactly the same as the one in front of us.
Now she was almost certain. What was inside the cave that could command two Yaksha statues to suppress it must be something extraordinary.
She had some doubts; could this so-called Cave God really be an existence that escaped from the Nine Nether Hell?
If it's true, how could she possibly beat them?
Yan Qingchou, but now that she's already here, she'll feel unwilling to leave if she doesn't go in.
"What, are you scared?" Chu Jiang said with a half-smile, a smirk playing on his lips.
Yan Qing retorted without turning her head, "You don't need to provoke me. You probably didn't get any benefits from this cave back then either."
Despite saying that, she still walked in step by step.
The temperature inside the cave was a bit low, and you could feel the whooshing wind as soon as you entered. In the wind, you could vaguely see a familiar figure not far ahead, struggling to even stand up.
Yan Qingxin understood; so the eerie wind was coming from here.
She gave Chu Jiang a meaningful look and smiled, "I suppose just walking this road back then almost cost you half your life, right?"
Chu Jiang's expression hardened, but before he could retort, a sudden "thump" was heard ahead, and Chu Jiang No. 2 fell straight down.
Yan Qing walked over quickly and found that the person was almost frozen stiff.
Chu Jiang No. 2's face was as pale as paper, and he could barely breathe. It was clear that he was about to completely perish.
"No, we have to find a way to save him! He's almost dead!"
Yan Qing was somewhat anxious, after all, the eerie winds here were clearly unbearable for the human body. The fact that Chu Jiang No. 2 had held out this long was already quite remarkable.
She was extremely anxious and pulled out a lot of medicine in one go, but unfortunately, she couldn't even touch the other person. No matter how life-saving the medicine was, it was all in vain.
“It’s no use—” Chu Jiang said. “Different timelines are completely incompatible. In his current state, unless he has a volcanic stone bead from the Nine Nether Hells, nothing else can resist the corrosive influence of the Yin Wind.”
"Volcanic stone beads from the Nine Netherworlds?" Where is she supposed to find that?
"By the way, aren't those stones by the door hellfire volcanic rock? Can I give them to him to use?"
Yan Qing got up to go outside to pick up stones, but Chu Jiang stopped her.
"It's useless. The Hellfire Volcanic Stone Bead is the core of Hellfire Volcanic Rock; only one such bead can be found in volcanic rock that's tens of thousands of years old." Chu Jiang laughed self-deprecatingly.
"Besides, even if you did get your hands on it, how would you give it to him?"
"Then, shall we just leave him to die?" Yan Qing still couldn't bring herself to stand by and watch him die.
Wait, that's right!
She remembered that before entering the dungeon, she had bought several colorful spirit orbs from the Sanglingling app, but unfortunately, she hadn't used them for a long time.
Looking at the Chujiang No. 2 on the ground, which was almost in a dying state, she decided to try anything, even if it seemed hopeless.
The next moment, four colorful spirit orbs appeared in Yan Qing's hand, one red, one blue, and one green. She picked up a red one and tried to bring it close to Chu Jiang No. 2.
Chu Jiang, who had been watching the commotion with his arms crossed, suddenly had his pupils contract sharply.
Only one thought remained in his mind: It was her?!
Yan Qing also reacted.
The moment the red bead appeared, it seemed somewhat out of control. That's why she decided to try it first. Who knew that as soon as she got close to Chu Jiang No. 2, the red bead would automatically jump out of her palm and then disappear into thin air.
Before she could even get angry, the red bead suddenly appeared out of thin air and went straight into Chujiang No. 2's body.
A red light enveloped Chu Jiang No. 2's body, and as time slowly passed, Chu Jiang No. 2's complexion became more and more normal.
A few minutes later.
"Hmm—"
Chu Jiang No. 2 snorted and slowly opened its eyes.
At first glance, he saw the red bead floating above his body and reached out to grab it.
"What's this?"
He played with the red spirit orb and found that it was emanating a warm feeling, and he could no longer feel the biting cold wind on his body.
Upon discovering this secret, Chu Jiang No. 2 finally showed a look of surprise and delight, and quickly put away the spirit pearl. Then he immediately got up from the ground and ran quickly into the cave.
"Hmph! You ingrate!" Yan Qing was extremely dissatisfied, realizing that she was the only one who suffered the loss.
However, Chu Jiang ran a bit too fast, and she didn't have time to settle accounts with him, so she could only grit her teeth and follow him.
The cave was actually very shallow. Ignoring the eerie winds, there was almost no threat. Before long, she reached the depths of the cave entrance.
At the deepest part of the cave entrance, there was only a small lava lake, with scorching lava churning incessantly, but strangely, not a trace of heat could be felt.
In the very center of the lava lake, a huge black stone "box" of no more than ten square meters in size floats. The "black stone box" is surrounded by thin silver metal chains that extend to the four corners of the cave.
Qingqing herself lay upright directly above the black stone box, looking exceptionally peaceful in her sleep.
Chu Jiang No. 2 breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that "Qingqing" seemed to be unharmed. Then he looked at the "black stone box". With his Xuanmen disciple's sensitivity, he knew very well that this thing was an extremely sinister object.
Fortunately, he himself possessed the power of lightning, which made him very resistant to evil. So, without hesitation, he spat out a mouthful of blood, which landed on the longsword in his hand. Then, he pointed the sword into the air and was about to begin casting a spell.
"Lightning Summoning Technique!" Yan Qing immediately recognized him, confirming that this person was indeed Yue Qi's fellow disciple.
However, this time, Chu Jiang No. 2's lightning-summoning technique seemed to have only been started before it was interrupted.
A man's voice suddenly rang out in mid-air, forcibly interrupting his spellcasting.
"Wait—!"
