Walking along the path of the underground cave, Gu Yuan's spiritual energy circulated rapidly in his body, and he was alert to everything around him.
In this environment, Gu Yuan had no choice but to be cautious. Throughout his long cultivation, Gu Yuan had always only done things he could be sure of, and he disliked risky things. He only had one life, and if he lost it due to carelessness, it would be a great pity.
Gu Yuan had finally been given a second chance at life, so in this environment, he had to be extremely cautious. Even if there was a great opportunity, he could take a risk, but he couldn't be careless and fall into danger. Losing his life would be a shame.
The red flame in Gu Yuan's hand flickered continuously, illuminating the road ahead. Gu Yuan looked over and saw a path paved with bluestone.
This place was not very big, and after walking for a while, Gu Yuan reached the end.
At the far end, there was a very obvious cave. Gu Yuan looked around the cave. There was nothing there, except for a stone platform in the center. On the stone platform, there was a small box. Above the box, lightning flashed, and from time to time, a small lightning snake would appear and coil around the box, appearing extremely spiritual.
Gu Yuan's eyes flashed with inspiration. He licked his lips and murmured, "Thunder spirit transforming into a snake. Could this be the legendary realm of transformation? What kind of treasure is this?"
The so-called transformation refers to some treasures that absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to improve their own level. When they reach a certain level, they will produce a trace of spiritual intelligence and then transform into some concrete things.
For example, the red flame in Gu Yuan's hand has such spirituality that it can even understand Gu Yuan's words.
Obviously, the same is true for the contents of the box on the stone platform. Looking at the small box on the stone platform, Gu Yuan felt that the contents inside should not be ordinary.
It was able to condense a small spiritual lightning snake, which showed that its spirituality was definitely not low. If this was the case, then it was obvious that this thing must be extremely precious.
However, Gu Yuan was not careless. He felt the darkness around him and did not find any other breath. Fortunately, there were no other people or objects around.
This wasn't a big place, and he was the only one there. Although the thing in the box looked like a treasure to him, Gu Yuan didn't dare to act rashly. He just observed it closely, but still kept a certain distance.
This had become Gu Yuan's code of conduct; he had to be cautious in everything he did. He stepped back a few steps, maintaining a certain distance from the stone platform, and released a red flame from his hand. The red flame instantly escaped Gu Yuan's hand, floating and moving autonomously through space, transforming into several small flaming snakes before approaching the box on the stone platform.
The moment the flame snake approached the box, a powerful burst of energy erupted from it. Lightning flashed continuously above the box. With a loud bang, several rays of light shattered the approaching flame snake, shocking Gu Yuan greatly.
The power of the red flame is so strong now. Although it is just a small fire, its power is also considerable. It was actually shattered by the flash of lightning. It can be imagined that if Gu Yuan rashly touches this thing, he will definitely be injured unexpectedly.
Gu Yuan exhaled lightly a few times. This place that appeared in the desert was indeed unusual.
"Damn it! With the power to shatter the Crimson Flame, if I reach out my hand, even if nothing serious happens, I'll at least get hurt. If I open the box directly, who knows what will happen."
Gu Yuan stared at the box on the stage, frowning tightly.
The thunder attribute energy that erupted from the box must have originated from something inside the box, which meant that there must be a thunder attribute treasure inside the box. It must be the treasure inside the box that was emitting this energy; it was the source of the energy.
Gu Yuan increased the output of spiritual energy in his hands, the red flames swayed more violently, and burned more and more fiercely, and a sound of explosion was heard in the space.
Gu Yuan swung out his hand, and the small snake transformed by the red flame approached the box on the stone platform.
The same result as before, a powerful thunder energy continued to erupt from the box, and with a bang, it smashed the little snake transformed from fire into pieces.
Gu Yuan smacked his lips. This power was quite frightening. However, Gu Yuan became more and more curious about what on earth could be so powerful.
Gu Yuan guessed in his heart that since the thunder energy that burst out was provided by the things in the wooden box, there would always be a moment when it would be consumed.
Anyway, this is the sub-fire of the red flame, and it will not dissipate as long as there is spiritual energy. In this way, it should be consumed sooner or later. When it is consumed, it can be opened directly, right?
Thinking of this, Gu Yuan kept swinging the red flame in his hand, and then the small snake transformed by the red flame was smashed to pieces by the thunder energy one after another.
Gu Yuan didn't care and continued to repeat the actions.
After a full half hour, Gu Yuan could clearly feel that the thunder energy erupting from the wooden box had been greatly weakened. Gu Yuan couldn't help but be overjoyed. It seemed that his guess was completely correct. Obviously, the things in the wooden box could no longer hold on.
Another half incense stick of time passed. When the red flame in Gu Yuan's hand approached the wooden box on the stone platform, no more thunder energy overflowed from it. Instead, the red flame completely enveloped the box.
Under Gu Yuan's control, the red flame did not burn, but simply wrapped it up.
After thinking about it, Gu Yuan finally used the red flame's sub-fire to open the box.
Gu Yuan pushed it to the farthest point to prevent any accidents from happening. He was facing the exit. If there was any accident, Gu Yuan had a way to retreat directly.
However, what Gu Yuan imagined did not happen. The wooden box was opened directly, and a bead emitting a faint blue color lay quietly in the wooden box.
Gu Yuan looked at the things in the wooden box, raised his eyebrows, and murmured, "What is this?"
Then Gu Yuan slowly approached, and the red flame completely wrapped Gu Yuan's arms and palms. Gu Yuan picked up the bead and observed it carefully.
The bead was dark blue in color, and inside the bead were some things that Gu Yuan didn't know about, like the shape of lightning.
There was nothing unusual about the bead in Gu Yuan's hand. Gu Yuan didn't know what the bead was, so he could only turn it left and right, but he couldn't find anything special. He could only sigh helplessly and put it into his space ring.
