Chapter 275: Four Thousand Five Thousand Years of Free Fall

The two of them stared in amazement at the flash of lightning that leaped from Ji Ruo's fingertips.

magic?

No, let alone chanting, there's not even any fluctuation of elemental power!

So what is this method?

Ji Ruo's golden hair stood on end. He estimated the distance roughly and slapped out with his palm from a distance.

Electric arcs leaped, piercing through the void, and the flash of lightning illuminated the dark cave for a moment.

The ferocious-looking Shadow Wolf still had a confused look on his face, as if he didn't understand how such a strange-shaped slime could suddenly stick to him.

However, before it could figure it out, a flash of lightning suddenly appeared and accurately hit the slime stick that was stuck on its body.

This is...

Lightning flashes and elements react.

The elemental core of a slime contains a mixture of elements, almost all elements. Only when it is promoted to a two-star monster will the elemental core become pure and pure.

However, two-star slimes are very rare, because there is only one element left in their elemental cores, and the core structure tends to be in a peculiar balance. If it is subjected to the slightest external force, it may explode uncontrollably with astonishing power.

Of course, this is true not only for two-star slimes, but also for the initial form of slimes.

Their elemental cores are in a strange balance, and their structures are relatively stable.

Under normal circumstances, it usually won't explode.

So Ji Ruo deliberately picked the slime whose elemental core was reddish in color.

This type of slime has a fire elemental attribute and can easily overload with lightning.

The stability of the elemental core is only relative. Once touched, it will instantly lose balance.

The explanation ended here, and the lightning penetrated the space and hit the slimes that were tied into a string.

The electric snake moved around, and the Shadow Wolf felt his skin slightly numb, but it was not a big deal.

Moreover, it also discovered the hiding place of Ji Ruo and others.

Without thinking, the shadow wolf raised its head and bared its fangs, its face ferocious and its eyes fierce, its hind limb muscles tensed, and it was ready to rush over immediately to end the lives of Ji Ruo and others.

Ji Ruo smiled and waved: "Bye~"

Shadow Wolf: “?”

It can actually understand what this human is saying?!

Is this human saying goodbye to himself? Why?

Before the Shadow Wolf could figure it out, the slime stuck to its body began to react crazily due to the imbalance of elements, and the mixed elements that had condensed into a solid state began to react wildly.

The slimes, which were originally only the size of a fist, swelled to the size of a watermelon in an instant, and their gelatinous bodies began to crack, releasing terrifyingly high temperatures.

A dazzling burst of fire suddenly broke out; this was the last thing Shadow Wolf saw.

Boom boom boom!!!

A loud explosion sounded, and heat waves surged, expanding continuously in this narrow tunnel space, with each wave stronger than the last!

The smile on Ji Ruo's face suddenly froze.

Emily covered her ears and said with fear and excitement: "Ji Ruo, can you play with slime like this? Where did you learn it? I haven't seen it in the book! I want to catch a slime later!"

The black-robed wizard was horrified as he watched this astonishing scene. The shadow wolf was engulfed in the sea of ​​fire in just a moment, and it was unknown whether it was alive or dead.

Watching the rolling heat waves approaching, the black-robed wizard looked at Ji Ruo and said, "I have to say, the power of this move is truly terrifying. If it weren't for you, I doubt if I would have died here."

Suddenly, the black-robed wizard saw the somewhat stiff expression on Ji Ruo's face, and felt something was wrong. He quickly asked, "You chose to use this method to deal with the Shadow Wolf. You must be sure that we will not be affected, right?"

Ji Ruo scratched his head and said awkwardly: "Oh~"

The black-robed wizard's expression changed drastically.

The next moment, the expanding wind blast completely blew up the entire tunnel, and the few people felt that they were empty...

Emily: “Huh?”

After a moment of weightlessness, the force of gravity took control of them again, pulling them down rapidly.

Emily: “Aa ...

Screams continued to echo in this deep underground space.

Most of the underground cities are of upper and lower structures. Because the geomagnetic energy of the place where they are located is chaotic, the architectural style is naturally primitive. The first layer was blown through, and there happened to be a bottomless cave below, so several people fell madly.

"Ji Ruo!!! Why did it become like this!!!" Emily covered her face and screamed: "The dungeon is not like this!!!"

The fall caused Emily's golden hair to stand upside down, like the flame tail of a meteor, which was very beautiful.

The cute pointed ears that were originally covered by the hair were now exposed to the air.

Ji Ruo sat cross-legged as he fell, scratching his head, and said somewhat awkwardly: "To be honest, I didn't expect this underground city to be a shoddy project. It was blown through in one go... Ahem, anyway, this is what happened. I misjudged the equivalent, and killed the enemy with the blast..."

As he spoke, Ji Ruo looked at the black-robed wizard with a guilty conscience.

The black-robed wizard's robe also flew up as it fell, revealing a pair of snow-white long legs.

It was so scary that my legs turned pale...

The black-robed wizard said angrily: "Tell me! What should we do now?"

Ji Ruo thought for a moment and said, "It's not a big problem. I have a way. Just wait and see."

As he spoke, Ji Ruo performed the 'Eight Extreme Heavens: Violent Foot Stepping into the Air', stepping on the air to make a muffled sound, and using the force to continuously jump in mid-air.

The explosion had an impact on a wide area. After all, it was a semi-enclosed space, and the power of the explosion was much greater than Ji Ruo had imagined.

Not to mention the first floor, even the second floor was partially collapsed, and a large amount of rubble fell into the abyss along with Ji Ruo and others.

At this moment, the rubble became Ji Ruo's foothold.

The black-robed wizard looked at Ji Ruo's ease with shock in his eyes, and began to wonder again, "Could fighter really be a powerful profession?"

However, despite his doubts, Ji Ruo's performance also shows that he has a way out of the predicament, and the problem is not big -

However, the black-robed wizard's thought did not last long, as he saw Ji Ruo jump back with a bunch of colorful bottled medicines in his clothes pocket.

The dungeon was filled with treasures. When some passages on the first and second floors were blown through, some treasure chests hidden in the dark were not spared and fell down.

What Ji Ruo just did was to rely on his own strong physical ability to rescue these gifts from nature.

"Come on, you two are well-informed. Check here to see if there are any advanced healing drugs or something like that. For example, if a person is missing limbs or is dying, as long as he still has a breath left, drinking this can make him alive and well again..."

Black robe wizard: “???”

Is this your solution?!

Emily burst into tears. "It's over, it's over! I'm going to die here, wuwuwu, if I had known I wouldn't have sneaked out. The books are all lies, and the dungeon is not fun at all!"

Ji Ruo smiled awkwardly, then suddenly reached out and pinched it.

Suddenly, a tiny, crystal-clear bat that seemed to be made entirely of ice crystals was held in Ji Ruo's hand.

Ji Ruo said: "Emily, don't cry, it's not all bad, at least we have completed our commission..."

The black-robed wizard said in a deep voice: "Ice bats can only be found on the third floor. You caught them, which means..."

"That's right!" Ji Ruo raised his thumb and said proudly, "We just passed the third floor, and now we are probably on the fourth floor, but it looks like we will have to go down for a while."

They both: “…”

Ji Ruo was joking around while muttering to himself.

So this is what the [Absolute Sense of Direction] meant when it told him to go to the ‘fastest way to reach the Eight Extreme Heavens Training Grounds’… To be honest, he was also startled when he fell down just now, but it wasn’t a big deal.

He is now a stove god, able to 'rise up in clouds and mist'. Although he cannot fly into the sky, he can still achieve a certain 'lightening' effect.

It is said to be falling, but actually it is 'floating'.

Otherwise, how could we have talked so much before falling to the fourth level?

Not only that, Ji Ruo's Tai Chi is best at dissipating force. It's just a fall from a high altitude, that's all.

Emily was so frightened that she didn't notice that there was something wrong with the speed at which the people were falling. She could do nothing but scream and cry.

But the black-robed wizard had already noticed this. After taking a deep look at Ji Ruo, he suddenly said, "I didn't expect that there would be a large pit connecting the upper and lower floors in the Lahapa underground city. And it looks like there are quite a few connected floors."

Ji Ruo thought, isn't this just a freight elevator?

For gods who do not have a legitimate exclusive sect and dare not preach openly, the main means of preaching is to quietly develop their own professionals, that is, high-quality believers, through dungeons.

The reason why the resources in the dungeon are inexhaustible is because the gods are constantly replenishing them.

Since it is the gods themselves who replenish the goods, it is normal to have a passage connecting all the floors of the entire dungeon. After all, you can't let the gods run from floor to floor to replenish the goods, right?

That's God!

As for the monsters living in the dungeon, it would be convenient to have a straight up and down passage when they visit relatives.

Ji Ruo roughly figured out the meaning and purpose of this passage. If he guessed correctly, similar structures might exist not only in Lahapa but also in other dungeons.

Seeing that Ji Ruo did not answer him, the black-robed wizard looked at Emily again.

The corners of his mouth hidden under the hood of his black robe curled up slightly, with a hint of mockery.

By the way, although the hem of the black robe of the black-robed wizard fluttered, the hood did not seem to be affected. Ji Ruo still didn't know whether this guy was a man or a woman.

As for that pair of snow-white, hairless, long legs... who said that only girls have such things?

Emily was still screaming, at a very high volume and very penetrating.

She stopped covering her face and covered her ears with both hands. She seemed to think she was screaming too loudly, but she was just scared.

The black-robed wizard suddenly asked, "Ji Ruo, where do you think this passage will eventually lead to?"

Ji Ruo said seriously, "It must lead to the bottom."

“…”

After receiving such unexpected nonsense, the black-robed wizard was obviously a little confused.

But he still said: "The Laharpa underground city has only been explored to the eighth level. Although the resources are still rich, it has already been explored by others... and so far, no god has blessed this underground city..."

Ji Ruo nodded: "I understand what you mean. Excluding the possibility that this dungeon does not have the blessing of gods, the blessing of gods definitely exists."

The black-robed wizard twitched his lips and continued, "If this passage eventually leads to the ninth floor, or even the bottom floor of the dungeon...

Because they have never been visited by humans, the rarity and value of those treasures are beyond our imagination.

Although I know that if that were the case, the dangers we would encounter would be even more terrifying, but it is precisely because of this that I firmly believe that there must be precious treasures down there that are worthy of our bravery!

so--"

Ji Ruo analyzed rationally: "But it is also possible that no one has been there yet, so there is no stock below..."

This is not a random guess, but an analysis based on what Ji Ruo knows about the truth of the dungeon.

As for precious treasures, not to mention the potions that may deteriorate after being kept for a long time, even the so-called magic weapons and magic props have not been maintained for a long time. In the dark and damp underground environment, there is a high possibility that the magic weapons will rust, and there is also a high possibility that the magic power of the magic props will dissipate. No one can go there, so why release the prizes so early?

Afterwards, Ji Ruo clearly felt a sharp gaze falling on him.

The black-robed wizard stared at Ji Ruo and spoke word by word: "It's not easy for us to go back in this situation. Why don't we go to the bottom layer and be a pioneer? What do you think, Ji Ruo?"

"I don't care. I'm here anyway."

Of course Ji Ruo would not refuse, he was going to go downstairs in the first place. After all, it was Ji Ruo who was responsible for the 'slowly falling' situation of the three people.

But it seems that this black-robed wizard really has a problem.

I tried several times but failed to interrupt the other person, and he seemed to want to go downstairs as well.

Emily screamed, "Can you please think about how to survive first before considering this!!"

Hearing this, the black-robed wizard pointed at Ji Ruo and said, "I've checked. The potion Ji Ruo just got contains a healing potion made from Nini flowers. Judging from its quality, it is very effective. If combined with other potions, as long as the person doesn't die on the spot, he can be saved, so don't worry."

Ji Ruo raised his eyebrows.

You learn pretty fast!

"I don't want it, I don't want it!"

Emily screamed and began to chant the healing spell.

Because of the previous "alley gunfight", each of them had a dying Flying Stinger Bee. Emily healed her own one, and immediately the wings of the bee regenerated and flapped wildly.

But it was of no use.

How big is a Flying Needle Demon Bee?

Even though Emily had a delicate appearance and a petite figure, she weighed at least 100 kilograms. How could a magic bee possibly bear that?

The magic bee flapped its wings but failed to catch Emily.

The black-robed wizard chuckled and suddenly said, "Okay, I won't tease you anymore."

He waved his staff and said calmly, "Levitation!"

Suddenly, the three people's falling momentum slowed down greatly, and in the blink of an eye they were descending slowly as if they were really riding an elevator.

Ji Ruo raised his eyebrows.

This guy didn't sing... Is she really a magician?

Emily was still in shock, her face pale: "Why didn't you use this magic earlier! I was scared to death!"

The black-robed wizard said casually: "Magic chanting requires time and concentration."

This was a normal statement, and Emily had no doubts.

She had been screaming just now and heard nothing. Now she said, "Since we have been released successfully, why don't you just send us out? The commission has been completed anyway..."

The black-robed wizard said, "No, we need to go to the bottom of the passage to see if I'm right. This passage should not go to the eighth floor."

Emily was shocked: "Not just to the eighth floor? Then where else are we going?"

"This is an unexpected situation. You have read a lot of books, so you should know that in the dungeon—"

Emily subconsciously took over the conversation and murmured, "Unexpected situations mean danger and adventure..."

The black-robed wizard continued to beguile him, “And think about it carefully. If this passage really connects to the ninth floor, then we will be the first group of adventurers to enter the ninth floor of the Lahapa Dungeon. We are in the pioneering era!”

The more Emily thought about it, the more excited she became: "You're right! We are in the pioneering era! Let's go to the ninth floor! I want to get the artifact, I want to get the treasure! I want to become a great adventurer!"

Ji Ruo touched his chin. When the black-robed wizard was speaking just now, it seemed that a strange force wanted to influence him, but was blocked by Xingxuan Dongtian.

What is this? Charm? Or seduction?

What does this guy want to do down there?

…
