"Turn off the flashlight," Ling Xiao said.

Wu Xie quickly turned off the flashlight. Under the flashlight, the centipede and the volcanic rock were almost the same color, and it was impossible to see them without careful observation. As a result, after turning off the flashlight, the entire cliff was covered with countless green light spots, like a vast universe, which almost made Wu Xie's hand slip.

Fortunately, they were all motionless, which allowed them to remain calm for a while.

"How did we end up in a bug nest?" The fat man clicked his tongue, withdrew his hand, and spoke softly, as if afraid of waking the bugs.

“The creatures on the snow-capped mountains tend to congregate near hot springs, so don’t just go and explore any hot spring you see. You might find leeches in places you don’t know about,” Shunzi said.

"They're all in a state similar to hibernation, just walk around them. Remember not to step on any of them and kill them," Ling Xiao reminded them.

“Yes, if one of these creatures dies, the others will come smelling it.” Shunzi’s words made Wuxie even more worried. He was conflicted, wanting to slow down and get away from them, but also wanting to get away from here as quickly as possible. He even started to move his hands and feet in unison.

"Go ahead and don't worry," Panzi encouraged Wuxie from behind.

"Hey! That's the end!" The fat man felt a gust of wind blow over him, almost blowing him off. Fortunately, Wu Xie also climbed up and gave him a push, which helped him regain his balance.

Climbing up, they found themselves in a deeper tunnel-like space, a vast, pitch-black area where nothing could be seen. The group quickened their pace. Black Bear threw in a cold firework, but it only allowed them to see the surrounding area, just like before, illuminating nothing. It resembled a huge basin surrounded by cliffs.

Ling Xiao climbed up and sat on the cliff edge, panting. Cheng Yu fired a flare up, illuminating the darkness.

Under the white light, a crater about 3 kilometers long appeared before their eyes. How to describe the feeling? They stood there like a few ants crawling next to a giant bowl.

"It even connects directly to the volcano!" someone remarked.

Ling Xiao showed absolutely no interest in any of this, while Wu Xie stood there as if frozen in place, holding a pair of binoculars, looking around half-heartedly, as if he were completely dumbfounded.

After a long pause, he finally uttered, "Could it be that Emperor Wannu's eternal tomb is inside a volcano?" Then he slowly put down his binoculars and said, "I wonder where Lingzi is."

She glanced at Ling Xiao, whom Xie Yuhua was taking care of, then looked away. After a short while, she looked back and exclaimed in surprise, "Ling Xiao!"

Shunzi, standing nearby, was so frightened his heart almost jumped out of his chest. He exclaimed, "Amitabha! Boss, keep your voice down! This is a volcano!"

Wu Xie quickly shut up and approached him quietly. The fat guy and the others also came over and asked him when he came up.

Ling Xiao simply said that he had reached a cooperation agreement with Shi Xi and Shi Xu, and that Shi Xu bringing Shi Xi back meant that the plan had succeeded and that he would not be struck by lightning for the time being, so he returned.

Wu Xie was completely bewildered. He didn't quite understand what this had to do with whether or not lightning would strike Ling Xiao. He was still trembling at the thought of the lightning strike last time. But as long as Ling Xiao was free, that was all that mattered. He was quite curious about how Ling Xiao had found the two brothers with such strange time sequences, but unfortunately, Ling Xiao didn't say anything.

"Since this is the territory of the King of Ten Thousand Slaves, Wu Xie, did the fish you found say anything?" Ling Xiao was also a little worried. It should no longer be developing according to the original plot, but they still encountered those centipedes. He could only lead them in the direction of the original plot for the time being, and at the same time test whether he had broken away from the control of the plot line.
