Chapter 879 Underground Cave
The disciple of Wanjian Mountain looked at the stunned Shen Fuzhou and smiled awkwardly, “Young Master, what should we do?”
Shen Fuzhou clenched his fist, “Catch up!”
He caught up with the three people in front, gritted his teeth and looked at Luo Li, "You don't have to lie to me, I saw it all."
Luo Li glanced at him and said, "Oh."
"Huh?!" Shen Fuzhou was surprised, "Is that your reaction?"
"What else?" Luo Li continued walking. "Your jade pendant was your own fault, not mine. How should I react?"
Shen Fuzhou was speechless for a moment, his face flushed, "You you you..."
"What do you mean?" Luo Li was a little impatient.
Her eyelashes trembled slightly, like a butterfly flapping its wings about to fly.
Shen Fuzhou’s eyes were burning, and he was about to argue when he saw Luo Li suddenly stop.
She glanced at the mountain beside her, then turned to the ground beside her, "Here."
Upon hearing this, Wen Xingyan waved his hand, and the disciples behind him immediately came to their senses and attacked with a palm.
Shen Fuzhou was stunned and asked, "What are you doing?"
Before anyone could reply, he saw the ground tremble slightly, and a bottomless hole was revealed in the flying dust.
The dust gradually dissipated, and the deep darkness in the cave seemed to swallow up all the light, and the stones with irregular edges were jagged.
Luo Li stepped forward lightly, looked down in the dim light from the sky, and a solemn look flashed in her eyes.
Occasionally, rustling sounds could be heard in the cave, as if some unknown creature was stirring. A chilling air quietly rose, making the surrounding air somewhat condensed. Everyone involuntarily took a step back, feeling an inexplicable chill in their hearts.
"There's something down there."
Luo Li said: "Let's go down and take a look."
Before she finished speaking, she had already drawn the Xuan Yue Sword from her waist.
The palm of her other hand moved, and a thin silver chain appeared. At the end of the chain was a diamond-shaped gem emitting a light blue light. She raised her hand and waved it, and the end of the chain fell into the deep hole.
The light cut through the darkness and slowly fell into the cave, casting strange shadows.
As Luo Li slowly lowered her body, the light seemed to have touched something, and the rustling sound deep in the cave suddenly intensified. Along with low gasps, an indescribable stench also spread out, making people feel nauseous.
Shen Fuzhou also frowned, “What is it?”
Deep inside the cave, a pair of dark green eyes suddenly opened in the light of pale blue light, flashing with greed and brutality.
Immediately afterwards, a huge figure slowly crawled out, its body covered with sticky black scales. An unknown mucus oozed out from between the scales and dripped onto the ground, making a "tapping" sound that was particularly harsh in the silent cave.
Two slender forked tongues extended from its mouth, swaying back and forth in the air, as if savoring the scent of the approaching prey.
The people above were keenly aware of the uneasiness. Wen Xingyan frowned, "Something is wrong."
Luo Li lowered her eyes, and before she could say anything, Xuan Mu smiled fiercely, "Then go down and take a look."
"Hey," Before the two of them could say anything, Xuan Mu had already flown down.
Xuan Mu's figure was light, floating down like a fallen leaf, his toes lightly tapping the ground, making almost no sound.
His eyes were as sharp as torches as he stared at the huge figure in the distance, and a long sword shining with cold light had appeared in his hand.
He walked closer step by step. The black-scaled monster seemed to be enraged by the sudden provocation. It let out a low roar, mucus splashed everywhere, and a disgusting stench filled the air.
Xuan Mu moved slightly, and the sword light flashed like a silk thread, bringing up a sharp wind sound, and collided with the monster's claws, sparks flying.
…
Above, after a while, there was still no movement from Xuan Mu.
Luo Li frowned, "Let's go down and take a look, Xuan Mu might have been in trouble."
Wen Xingyan nodded and turned to look at his men, "You guys wait up there, the three of us will go down."
The three of them fell into the cave. The fire of law was burning in Wen Xingyan's palm. The flames danced on his resolute face, reflecting his furrowed brow and the vigilance in his eyes.
He turned slowly and scanned the surroundings, trying to find the source of the inexplicable uneasiness in this dark cave.
Suddenly, a cold wind blew by, and the flames of the torches shook violently, as if something was stirring in the dark.
Wen Xingyan's heart sank suddenly. He could feel that the pair of dark green eyes were hiding in a corner, staring at them coldly, like a beast about to attack.
Shen Fuzhou looked around anxiously, "Where's Xuan Mu?"
"Xuan Mu!" Shen Fuzhou's voice echoed in the empty cave, with a hint of weirdness.
Wen Xingyan did not answer, but clenched his fists. The fire of law in his palms became more and more intense, pushing back the surrounding darkness a little.
Suddenly, a slight sound came from the crack in the cave wall, like fingernails scratching the stone wall, cold and harsh.
Immediately afterwards, a huge figure flashed by in the shadows at an astonishing speed, like the most eerie phantom in the night.
Shen Fuzhou's expression suddenly changed, and he instinctively moved closer to Wen Xingyan and Luo Li. The three of them stood back to back, looking around vigilantly.
Luo Li narrowed her eyes, "It's a demon beast."
But they couldn't detect any trace of him, which was really strange.
She is already an emperor, and the three of them are all half-lords. This monster is at least at the level of a great lord.
Shen Fuzhou gritted his teeth, “Damn it, what on earth is it!”
A faint green light flickered in the depths of the cave, like the eye of the underworld, staring at them coldly.
The huge figure reappeared, resembling a giant beast, covered with rough black scales, with dark green eyes, saliva dripping from its mouth, and making gurgling low growls.
It crawled on all fours, and every breath it took caused the surrounding air to fluctuate violently, bringing with it gusts of fishy-smelling wind.
Luo Li gripped the sword tightly, the tip of the sword trembling slightly, reflecting her tense and determined face. The air around the three of them seemed to solidify, and the tension reached its extreme.
Great Lord, the peak.
Shen Fuzhou clenched his fists and drew his sword angrily, "Is this really a monster?! This can't be right!"
Luo Li looked closely and found that not far from the feet of this monster beast, there was a familiar figure lying on the ground, his life or death unknown.
The familiar figure was covered in blood, his clothes were tattered, revealing several deep wounds. Blood flowed out, staining the surrounding land red.
His face was as pale as paper, his eyes were closed, and his breathing was so weak that it was almost imperceptible.
A strand of messy hair stuck to his forehead, mixed with sweat and dirt, making him look particularly disheveled.
"Xuan Mu!"
Luo Li gritted her teeth and said, "I'm going to save Xuan Mu, you guys hold him back, and we'll leave immediately after we save Xuan Mu!"
This is obviously no longer a normal monster. This damn place is too weird and we absolutely cannot stay here.
Luo Li's figure flashed, and she rushed towards Xuan Mu like an arrow.
