As soon as the Hanyu Tianfang Boat was placed in the river of fire, it emitted a cold and pale air.
The river of fire paused for a few breaths before surging even more violently. The Heavenly Treasure Ship shimmered with a pale blue light, seemingly fighting against the golden river of fire. The two were evenly matched, and the flames surrounding the boat gradually began to freeze, while the boat's hull gradually turned a faint red.
Mo Qiu said sternly, "The heart blood of this demon lord is really powerful. I'm afraid this boat won't last long."
Luo Jianqing nodded in understanding: "Get on board!"
The two men pushed off the ground, their figures moving like lightning. Mo Qiu easily boarded the boat, but as Luo Jianqing approached the flaming river within ten feet, the flaming monsters pounced on him one after another. Luo Jianqing was prepared. He raised his Frost Floating Sword and killed them one by one!
The cultivation level of the Nascent Soul Stage, plus the fact that the gale had just passed and the River of Fire was extremely weak for a quarter of an hour!
Luo Jianqing cut off these monsters like cutting grass, until he came to three meters away, and encountered the golden fire dragon again.
As soon as the Fire Dragon saw Luo Jianqing, he roared with laughter, "It's you, the annoying swordsman again! Come on, this time I will definitely kill you...ah!"
Luo Jianqing calmly swung his sword, and the Nine Green Lotus Swords Formation directly cut the fire dragon, which had fallen to the sixth level, into two halves.
"This... this is impossible..."
Luo Jianqing ignored the arrogant fire dragon. He walked another ten feet forward. A lazy golden Qilin beast looked at him unhappily and said in human language, "I don't have time to care about lowly humans like you. Get out of here."
Time was running out, and Luo Jianqing ignored the contempt and rudeness in the other party's tone and continued forward. Just as he was about to step onto the Hanyu Tianfang ship, he saw a shadowy golden figure emerge. A tall and mighty man with short hair, holding a huge axe in his hand, glared at him fiercely.
Luo Jianqing's eyes narrowed.
High-level demon lord!
Seeing the humanoid monster wielding a giant axe coming towards him, Luo Jianqing formed a hand seal without hesitation, preparing to unleash his ultimate move. However, at this moment, a flash of red light flashed from the cinnabar mole between Luo Jianqing's eyebrows, and the monster hesitated for a moment before dissipating and transforming back into flames.
Everything happened so fast that Luo Jianqing didn't understand what was happening. But he didn't have time to think about it. Mo Qiu kept shouting, "Hurry! Time is running out!" So Luo Jianqing immediately jumped on the boat, and the Hanyu Tianfang boat sped towards the exit of the Flame River.
There are only two places that appear to be exits in this valley.
One is the inlet of the Flame River, and the other is the outlet of the Flame River.
According to Mo Qiu, this Flame River was the heartblood of the Heavenly Rank Demon Lord, so what lay upstream of the Flame River was truly terrifying. So, the two of them unanimously decided to head downstream. However, the biannual strong winds mostly blew from the cave at the river's outlet, so this choice was a risky one. Neither of them knew what lay beyond the cave.
The Hanyu Tianfang Boat crossed the river of fire at an extremely fast speed, and as the light dimmed, it entered the cave.
The cave was extremely long and was surrounded by pitch darkness. The treasure ship kept moving forward and did not leave the dark cave for a whole day and night.
Luo Jianqing frowned and said, "Mo Qiu, what's going on? Do you know?"
Mo Qiu yawned unhappily: "Luo Jianqing, do you think I know everything?"
As the two continued on their journey, the temperature around them dropped lower and lower, slowly approaching normal human body temperature. Luo Jianqing then realized that, back in the Flame River Valley, they had become accustomed to the scorching heat. In fact, the temperature there was enough to scorch a Qi Refining Stage disciple. Now, what they were experiencing was normal.
The boat continued to move forward, but the temperature was getting lower and lower.
As the temperature dropped below zero, floating ice began to form in the river below. Luo Jianqing unhesitatingly used his sword energy to clear a path, while Mo Qiu continued to steer the treasure ship. The two men worked in perfect harmony, yet the temperature continued to drop. When the river was completely covered in ice, Luo Jianqing turned to look at Mo Qiu, who returned his gaze.
The two nodded in unison, then Mo Qiu collected the Hanyu Tianfang Boat and continued on foot together.
In such a strange and dark place, flying was the worst option. It was good that Jindan-stage cultivators could fly, but this also made them sitting ducks. The faster they flew, the less they could perceive the dangers around them.
Luo Jianqing had been hunted for many years in his previous life and was well aware of such details, but what he didn't expect was that Mo Qiu was also so experienced and cautious.
As if he had heard what was in Luo Jianqing's heart, Mo Qiu sneered: "There are more people who want to kill me than you know."
The two walked forward side by side, each taking out their own life-saving magic weapons.
It seemed the danger was truly gone, the water merely frozen. Slowly, Luo Jianqing and Mo Qiu relaxed their guard. After walking another ten miles, Mo Qiu quipped, "This cave is truly deep. We haven't even gotten out yet, and I wonder how long it is."
Luo Jianqing smiled and said, "It doesn't matter how long it is, as long as there is no danger."
Before he finished speaking, Luo Jianqing suddenly felt a faint breeze blowing past his ears. He suddenly stopped and asked, "Mo Qiu, do you feel the wind?"
Mo Qiu also suddenly paused, looked around vigilantly, and replied: "No."
The heart that had just been put at ease was lifted up again. When Luo Jianqing walked another hundred meters, suddenly, a gentle breeze blew past his cheek, and his fine black hair swayed slightly. Luo Jianqing opened his eyes wide and exclaimed in surprise, "There's wind!"
As soon as the words fell, a green sword light flew towards the direction where the breeze came from.
