The further down they went, the thinner the air became, and the hotter the temperature grew. At the end, a black sword half the height of an adult stood atop a black rock. The rock rose high from a roiling pool of magma. From beneath it, magma continuously erupted upward, then fell like rain, landing on the black sword atop the rock. The sword remained unaffected, and the magma simply slid down the blade like cold rain.
"Hey, go, go and contract the Flame-Eating Sword."
Everyone was deeply attracted by the scene before them. Perhaps because Li An had been to this place many times, he quickly came to his senses and shouted in the direction of Lu Wuxiu.
However, Lu Wuxiu remained indifferent.
Li An smiled, put away the dagger, and pushed Lu Shengyang, Lian Ji, and Lu Lianqi to the edge of the magma pool, warning them: "If you don't do as I say, I will push all your relatives in."
Lu Wuxiu glanced at the three people one by one with cold eyes, and then turned his gaze to the black sword on the black rock pillar.
Li An was furious when he saw Lu Wuxiu ignoring him. He shouted, "Don't think I don't dare. I'll count to three. If you don't move, I'll randomly pick someone and push them down. Three, two..."
"Wait! Wait!" Lu Shengyang pleaded immediately with a trembling voice: "Immortal, let me tell you, I am his biological father, let me persuade him."
Li An didn't say anything, which was considered as tacit consent. After all, his purpose was to let Lu Wuxiu draw the sword, not to really push anyone down.
"Child, your name is Lu Wuxiu, right? I am your father, child." Lu Shengyang burst into tears, his face full of sorrow but with real feelings: "Please save Daddy, and your mother and brother too. After we get out, we can live a good life as a family of four. Please save us, Daddy, I beg you."
"Brother, save us, save mother, brother." Lu Lianqi was not stupid. As long as he saw Lu Wuxiu's face and heard those words, and walked out of the closed gate, Lu Lianqi burst out with a strong desire to survive.
The cries for help from the father and son rang out in the cave, even a little noisy. However, Lian Ji did not say a word from beginning to end.
Lu Wuxiu's face sterned, and he stepped on the ground with his toes. His figure lightly dodged the magma dripping from the sky and the magma columns erupting from the ground. After some time, he finally landed on the black rock pillar. He stepped forward step by step, passed the whirlpool around the black sword, and finally stood in front of the black sword.
