Beast Taming Chapter 124: Under the Ground
"Be careful!" Shi Yan was horrified and quickly grabbed Ye Yier and dragged her backwards, blocking her with his body. Lan Yan suddenly rushed out, forming a flame screen in front of him, which shook off the arrows.
Shi Yan looked far away and saw no one in the cave. He felt relieved and breathed a sigh of relief. "Fortunately, it was not the enemy, but the mechanical formation in the cave. We just accidentally touched the mechanical formation."
Ye Yier was still in shock. She stroked her chest and sighed, "I was so scared. I thought there was an ambush here."
Shi Yan gave her a gentle, reassuring smile, then turned and walked forward, "You're behind me, and if there's any danger ahead I can help you block it."
Ye Yier said "hmm" sweetly behind her, and her somewhat shy smile was as bright and dazzling as a flower.
Suddenly, there was a loud bang from behind, and the stone door closed. A door-locking stone made of black ice iron fell from the top of the cave, sealing the stone door and blocking the retreat route tightly.
In an instant, everything around them was pitch black, and the cold chill penetrated their bones. They could not see or hear anything, as if all images and sounds were isolated by the wall. There was only silence. The only sound was the breathing of the two people.
Now, we can only keep moving forward!
When Shi Yan jumped out of the soul-searching furnace just now, he took back the Qiankun bag that he had placed around him, took out a set of clothes and put them on. Now in such a hot tunnel, he really felt a little uncomfortable. However, with a woman next to him, Shi Yan couldn't rudely take off his coat and walk forward with his bare chest, so he had to endure it.
Nothing was missing from the Qiankun bag, after all, it only contained some daily necessities. Shi Yan didn't have the habit of carrying important things with him. He kept the mysterious beast egg and some jade slips of advanced spells obtained from Zhong Ming in Dongleng Valley. There were restrictions set up by Cang Lan outside Dongleng Valley, and no one in the entire Zimu Liuhua Domain could force their way in, so Shi Yan was very relieved.
Besides, at this moment, Dongqi is still in charge of the Donleng Valley.
“Snap!”
The firelight jumped, Shi Yan took out the fire cocoon, and the fire cocoon illuminated the surroundings, like an orange-red fluorescent amber. Ye Yier's lovely face looked extremely delicate and charming under the light of the fire cocoon. There was an orange-red glow flowing on her fair face, as gentle as jade, captivating, and stars twinkled in her bright eyes. Shi Yan's heart was shocked, and the chilling and uneasy feeling in his heart suddenly disappeared.
Ye Yier was not uneasy. Her eyes were shining. She was already shocked by what was happening before her eyes. The curiosity in her heart far outweighed the fear. She felt very excited, and the blood in her body was burning. The current situation was just like the adventure she had as a child, exciting and thrilling.
Shi Yan walked in front holding the fire cocoon, and Ye Yier followed carefully behind him, twisting her head and looking around curiously as she walked.
The tunnel twists and turns, crisscrossing like a maze. The ground is paved with dark blue stone slabs, and the sound of footsteps echoing in the tunnel. The cold wind makes people's hair stand on end, but it also makes the stuffy feeling disappear without a trace.
Because he was in an unfamiliar environment, Shi Yan was extra careful and walked a little slowly. After walking for nearly half an hour, the road ahead was suddenly cut off, and there was a cliff under his feet.
At this moment, his feet suddenly felt empty, and there was a creaking sound under him. He suddenly sank and fell several feet down! He was shocked and grabbed a huge protruding stone with both hands. He held it tightly with all his strength. The momentum of his fall was slightly reduced. He fell more than ten feet before he stabilized. Shi Yan was still in shock and turned his head carefully to look down. The sight was so frightening that he was immediately scared to death. It turned out that he was hanging in the air on a cliff!
He took a deep breath, turned over and stood firmly.
"Be careful!" Shi Yan wiped the sweat from his forehead, stopped Ye Yier, and carefully asked her to retreat. Shi Yan raised the fire cocoon, letting the light of the fire cocoon shine farther, and found that this place was like an underground canyon, like a crustal fault, spanning both ends, with no edge. And where Shi Yan was, there happened to be a stone bridge, and the stone bridge had broken.
Shi Yan breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, they walked slowly and carefully, otherwise both of them might have fallen into the underground canyon.
Shi Yan turned around and said to Ye Yier, "Yier, hold on to me, I'm flying over."
Ye Yier nodded and hugged Shi Yan's waist.
Shi Yan kicked with his fist, and the air surged, rising into the air and flying to the opposite side. At this moment, a strange cry came from the darkness, and then several black shadows attacked.
"What!" Shi Yan was shocked and swung his palm knife out, flames shot out, illuminating the area and dispelling the darkness.
"Gah!" The black shadow screamed and fell down the canyon with a burning smell. But the fire cocoon in Shi Yan's hand also fell out with the black shadow because of the palm knife. Shi Yan looked at it with his eyes and said, "It turned out to be a shadow bat. Shadow bats prefer darkness to light and are very sensitive to light. It was our previous fire cocoon that scared them."
Without the fire cocoon, the road ahead was a little unclear. The fire cocoon was the only thing Shi Yan could use to illuminate. There was no other way, so Shi Yan could only shoot a rocket forward.
The rocket hit the cliff with a bang. There were some flammable materials on the cliff, which suddenly ignited when they came into contact with the rocket. From top to bottom, like a fire dragon returning to its nest, it penetrated into the depths of the canyon. "Ga ga ga ga..." Many shadow bats were frightened and ran around in panic.
"Ah!" Ye Yier was frightened and her hands loosened and fell down.
"Yier!" Shi Yan was horrified and rushed forward, trying to grab her hand, but...
With a thud, his forehead hurt violently, and he felt dizzy and buzzing. He didn't expect that there was a bridge below him, not a cliff. He rushed to the bridge and crashed into it. If it weren't for the spiritual power protecting his body, Shi Yan would have been bleeding from his head.
"Shi Yan! Are you okay?" A fragrant breeze rushed towards Shi Yan. Then a soft and fragrant body crashed into Shi Yan's arms. The soft body crashed into his arms. It was like crashing into Shi Yan's heart, causing his heart to tremble violently.
At this moment, Shi Yan's head was no longer dizzy. He took a deep breath, suppressed some of the evil fire that was about to stir, and stretched out his arms to embrace the slender waist that he had once praised as the best. With his arms tightly hugging that soft waist, Shi Yan was momentarily absent-minded.
Just as Shi Yan was savoring the softness in his arms, Ye Yier's shameful and angry voice rang in his ears.
"Pervert, you really haven't changed your wolf nature!"
Shi Yan was stunned, and recalled the scene when he first met Ye Yier, and couldn't help but smile. Back then in the mysterious valley behind Huajian Valley, the first word Ye Yier said when she saw him was "pervert".
Shi Yan smiled, stood up and shook his head, finally he was no longer dizzy. He rubbed his neck which was a little painful from the collision, and there was a crackling sound of bones crackling.
Ye Yier smiled and said, "Why don't you answer? Do you agree?"
Shi Yan pretended to be bitter, turned around and said jokingly: "Why, do you want to kick me into the water again?"
Ye Yier burst out laughing, and she also remembered the scene when they first met.
After resting for a while, the two continued to move forward. The dark environment around them made Ye Yier hug her arms involuntarily. She looked up at Shi Yan who was walking slowly in front of her, hesitated slightly, and then took a few quick steps and followed him closely. In this environment, only Shi Yan walking in front of her could make her feel more secure.
After walking for a full quarter of an hour in such a quiet atmosphere, a lively person like Ye Yier could not stand such an atmosphere. Just when Ye Yier could not stand the darkness that was so quiet that it could drive people crazy, Shi Yan suddenly stopped.
"Ah..." She didn't try to retract her body's strength in a hurry, and finally hit Shi Yan's back. The two soft and perky breasts were compressed into two soft little balls on Shi Yan's back under the action of pressure.
The intimate contact made Ye Yier blush and she took a step back quickly.
Shi Yan did not feel the softness on his back at that moment, because he was shocked by what he saw.
The fishy and salty breeze blew across Shi Yan's cheek, and he suddenly felt a sticky and wet feeling.
Shi Yan's mouth trembled with difficulty and uttered a word, "Sea?"
That’s right, in front of Shi Yan’s eyes was a sea, an underground sea!
Is there a sea underground?
Suddenly there was a muffled groan, and Shi Yan's breathing suddenly choked. He felt flames exploding in his body, and flames flying everywhere. A ball of hot flame rolled and spread from his dantian to his brain, making his mind suddenly clear.
Shi Yan: "No!" Purple light swirled around his body, he crouched and spun to attack, clasped his hands together, flames splashed, and he attacked like lightning, with flames burning madly.
There was a slight click, and the ocean in front of him suddenly twisted, as if an ink painting had been wiped, becoming extremely blurry. Finally, the "ocean" collapsed, the picture faded away, and what returned was still that long tunnel.
"Illusion, it turns out to be a trap!" Shi Yan was still in shock when he heard a few loud whooshing sounds, golden light dancing, and countless copper nails shooting from all directions like a rainstorm. Shi Yan quickly grabbed Ye Yier and rolled on the ground to avoid the trap.
Since then, traps and mechanisms have emerged one after another, making it difficult to guard against them.
Finally, the two came to a stone door. They opened it and saw a huge stone chamber. The stone chamber looked simple and empty. On the walls, there were many luminous stones inlaid, which illuminated the stone chamber like daylight.
The two were surprised and suspicious, and walked up the stone steps side by side.
This stone chamber is large but simple. There is a stone bed and a stone table in the corner of the wall. There is nothing else except a stone lamp.
Ye Yier, "This seems to be someone's residence!"
Shi Yan nodded. This place really looked like a bedroom. There were many sword marks on the ground, crisscrossing and complicated. But if you look closely, you can feel the sharp sword intent revealed in the sword marks!
At this moment, Ye Yier shouted in surprise: "Shi Yan, come and have a look, there seems to be something here!"
