Danzun War God

Chapter 209 Entering the Cave

Before anyone could react, the Lord laughed loudly and vanished in a blur.

Han Qi then rushed towards the cave in grief and anger, determined to find Lin Yuyao no matter the risk or difficulty.

Yue Ling'er, who was standing next to Han Qi, grabbed him and said sternly, "Han Qi, calm down. You're not going to save Yu Yao in this state. You'll just be throwing your life away."

"I don't care, I will definitely find them. Let me go!" Han Qi said sadly, trying to break free from Yue Ling'er's restraints.

"Han Qi, I have a plan! Don't forget I'm the Demon Ancestor, I know this place best." Tang Siyu quickly grabbed Han Qi's other arm and said.

Han Qi then gave up struggling and muttered dejectedly, "It's all my fault. I've dragged Yu Yao into this mess. She hasn't enjoyed a single day of happiness with me. I must rescue her."

At this moment, Yue Ling'er turned to everyone and said, "Everyone, quickly recover your strength. We'll think of a way to get Yu Yao out later."

At this moment, Yue Ling'er fully displayed the demeanor of a queen, instantly becoming the backbone of the group. They deeply agreed with Yue Ling'er's words, so the group sat down in the cave to meditate and begin to recover their strength.

Han Qi looked around at everyone, knowing that now was not the time for her to be sad. Besides, her younger sister Yuyao had only been pushed into the cave, and at least for the time being, her life was not in danger. So she took a few deep breaths and composed herself.

An hour later, everyone had basically recovered and were discussing how to find the three missing persons.

Han Qi said to Yue Ling'er, "Yue Ling'er, Tang Tang and I will go down in a bit. You and the others will be responsible for providing support outside."

Upon hearing this, Yue Ling'er glared at Han Qi and said, "No, I absolutely cannot agree. The Demon Ancestor has already gone down, and I, as the Demon King, certainly cannot stand idly by!"

Han Qi smiled slightly and said, "You know you're the Demon King, right? Nobody knows what's going on inside this cave. You absolutely can't take this risk. If something goes wrong, the Demon Realm might really be doomed. Besides, isn't Yuan Hong coveting your position as Demon King?"

For a moment, Yue Ling'er was speechless and could only glare fiercely at Han Qi. At this moment, Bai Junyao and Chen Wei objected, both insisting that she go inside with Han Qi. Han Qi had no choice but to leave them outside to protect Yue Ling'er's safety, promising that he would communicate with Chen Wei through divine sense if any danger arose, and would summon Chen Wei to her side if necessary.

Han Qi then prepared to enter the cave with Tang Siyu. At this moment, Yue Ling'er, her eyes reddening, rushed into Han Qi's arms. Tang Siyu, who was standing to the side, was so shocked that she couldn't speak. She glared at Han Qi, who looked at her with a bitter expression, indicating his helplessness.

Yue Ling'er said slowly, "You must come back. I'm still waiting for you."

Han Qi patted Yue Ling'er's head and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely come back, and I will bring them back with me."

The two then walked deeper into the cave. The further they went, the darker it became. Han Qi activated the Fire Spirit Orb, causing a flame to appear at his fingertips.

Suddenly, Han Qi jolted, a sharp pain shooting through his lower back, causing him to gasp. Tang Siyu's hand was twisting his waist like a vise.

"Tell me honestly, what is your relationship with the Demon King? Why did he throw himself at you?" Tang Siyu said in a cold voice.

Han Qi smiled wryly and said, "Let go quickly. She and I are just ordinary friends. I can't stop her from throwing herself at me. But I promise I won't fall for her."

"Hmph! That's more like it. I won't pursue the past anymore, but if I ever find out you're entangled with any woman again, I'll drain you dry. I'll make sure you can't act recklessly anymore!" Tang Siyu said like a king declaring the sovereignty of his territory.

Suddenly, the two felt their feet slip and plummet rapidly downwards. They had been so engrossed in flirting that they had become less aware of their surroundings and failed to notice the sudden change in the cave's direction. As they continued their rapid descent, unfamiliar caves flashed by, leaving them somewhat disoriented.

The two could only channel their profound energy into the surrounding stone walls to slow down their speed. They could clearly feel that some of the cave entrances were emitting waves of heat, while others were emitting cool air. The sudden changes in temperature made them look extremely disheveled. After all this, Han Qi was too busy to release flames for illumination.

"Why isn't it at the bottom yet? How deep is it?" Tang Siyu began to feel uncertain as she continued her descent without finding the bottom of the cave.

With one hand around Tang Siyu's waist and the other releasing streams of profound energy to slow her down, Han Qi shouted, "Little girl, didn't you say you had a way? Can you tell me now?"

Upon hearing this, Tang Siyu pursed her lips and said, "They were just trying to comfort you. As for a solution, there will always be one, but we don't know yet."

Upon hearing this, Han Qi could only sigh. Suddenly, he sensed the bottom of the cave and quickly shouted, "We've reached the bottom! Be careful!"

The two immediately released a barrier of profound energy around their bodies, as if they had added an air cushion around them.

"boom!"

With a loud bang, the two landed on the ground at the same time, but because they were protected by Xuan Qi, they were not seriously injured. They slowly stood up, and Han Qi flicked his hand and a flame appeared at his fingertip, instantly illuminating the cave.

Upon seeing their surroundings, the two exclaimed in surprise. The place they were in was not the bottom at all, but a black stone mound formed by the cooling of magma that had emerged from a nearby cave. Looking down through the cracks in the stone mound, they saw a fiery red expanse below, filled with churning red magma. However, beneath the stone mound was a cold cave, constantly emitting chilling air, which explained why such a large stone mound had formed.

Looking at the churning lava below, Han Qi felt extremely heavy-hearted. The temperature of this lava was at least a thousand degrees Celsius; anyone who went in would be reduced to ashes. If it weren't for this rock mass, the two of them would have been in danger. Han Qi couldn't help but worry about Lin Yuyao and the other two.

But Tang Siyu was in a completely different state at this moment. Looking at the lava below, she was full of excitement. She grabbed Han Qi's arm and said excitedly, "Han Qi, the moment I got this word, this image appeared in my soul sea, which is this churning lava below. The two must be related."

Upon hearing this, Han Qi could only temporarily put aside the search for the person and looked at Tang Siyu, saying, "Then what needs to be done to make this seed grow into a Tree of Life?"
