After the three Phantoms in the stone man's body were killed, the stones stopped moving.
Although these stones were made by the Earth Spirit, they were not the Earth Spirit itself. They were just a pile of dead objects.
Luo Zheng carefully cut these stones and dug out the sand-sized Holy Stones.
Although he did not know how many Holy Stones the Elemental Spirit civilization had, they were still rare for Luo Zheng. In case there were a lot of Phantoms, they would be of great use.
After dealing with these stones, they continued to move deeper into the cellar.
The path to the cellar was not complicated. They just followed the wide cave all the way down.
The deeper they went, the wider they got. There was a damp smell in front of them.
"I'm afraid there is an underground river or pool in the depths of the cellar," Donghuang judged.
Luo Zheng nodded and said, "The pool is at the end of the cellar. At that time, your original bodies were trapped beside the pool."
Hearing the word "original body," Donghuang paused for a moment and showed a strange expression.
Not long ago, he was rescued from the Divine River and knew that he had an original body. Naturally, he was not used to it.
Fuxi and Nuwa had already adapted and accepted the fact that they were created lives and others' clones.
Luo Zheng realized that he had said something wrong and hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, Lord Donghuang …"
"It's okay," Donghuang smiled slightly. "I'd like to see what my original body looks like!"
Not long after, a pool suddenly appeared in front of them.
The water in the pool was clear and transparent. They could see the bottom of the pool at a glance.
After arriving at the pool, Rat King Sheng Tian looked around. "Squeak, I don't see the heroes of the human race …"
"This is the end of the cellar. There seems to be no passage ahead," Nuwa also walked to the pool and looked around.
Luo Zheng circled around the pool and even released his Divine Sense to sweep the cave wall for a while, trying to find something like a hidden passage. The result was naturally disappointing.
Luo Zheng was mentally prepared when the Heavenly Lord of the Origin could not communicate with his original bodies through the Instrument of Civilization. But looking at the empty cellar, he could not help but feel disappointed.
"Could they have been taken away by the Elemental Spirit civilization?" Elder Ying frowned and asked.
"After being trapped for so long, they might have been cleaned up by the Elemental Spirit civilization," Blood Wolf said.
The Immortal Hunters had tried their best to hide in order to save the three of them. He found it hard to believe that anyone could survive in the cave.
Nuwa's eyes flickered. She was not so pessimistic. Instead, she said, "There is also a third possibility." As she spoke, she pointed upwards. "They went to Jade Clear Sky."
The path opened by the hundreds of millions of pagodas led to the Clear Sky Platform, and this underground cave was no exception.
Back then, human warriors stayed in the underground kiln, which meant they had enough time to find a way to ascend to the Jade Clear Sky.
Luo Zheng also nodded. He turned to Tianchuan and said, "Senior Tianchuan, do you know where the Clear Jade Sky is?"
As the creator, Tianchuan was very familiar with these passageways regardless of whether it was the hundreds of millions of pagodas or mountains. However, at this moment, he frowned and pondered for a while. "I know that this passageway leads to the Night Vision Island. That is an independent and huge Clear Sky Platform. However, this passageway was not set up by me. Let me think …"
Although Tianchuan was the creator of the world, he had participated in the creation of the Chaotic World. There were many details that he was not completely clear about.
Fortunately, Tianchuan was very familiar with his colleagues. He also had a general understanding of what the other creators would do. He walked to the pool and looked down. Then, he cupped a handful of water and observed it carefully. A smile appeared on his face.
He stood up and said to Luo Zheng, "Boil the water."
"Boil?" Luo Zheng was stunned.
This pool was not big. It was not difficult to boil it, but this request was too strange.
"Yes, you will know after boiling it," Tianchuan said.
Luo Zheng jumped into the pool according to Tianchuan's instructions. He wanted to stimulate the power of the Divine Path, but the Heavenly Lord of the Origin in his Inner World could not wait and directly asked Zhurong to do it.
Everyone only saw a red light flash in the pool. With a rumbling sound, the whole pool began to boil.
This was the result after Zhurong controlled it. If Zhurong went all out, he could vaporize the water in the pool in an instant.
When the water in the pool began to boil, a miraculous scene appeared.
A zigzag red path appeared in the originally clear and transparent pool. This path made many turns in the pool and extended to the bottom of the pool.
"Is that the entrance?" Blood Wolf, who had always been expressionless, was surprised.
"It should be," Nuwa nodded.
"Who would have thought that the entrance was hidden in the boiling water …" Fuxi was speechless.
In the past, the thirty-six heroes of the human race had been trapped here. They had probably tried everything they could think of. Perhaps, they had carelessly boiled the pool and discovered this passage.
After Luo Zheng saw the passage in the water, he surfaced and waved to everyone. Then, he swam along the red path in the water.
Tianchuan, Nuwa, Fuxi and others also jumped into the boiling water.
They swam all the way down to the bottom of the pool. Then, they saw a door formed by light. Luo Zheng was the first to enter, and the people behind him followed.
"Whoosh!"
After Luo Zheng entered the middle, he suddenly felt dizzy. He was swimming down, but now he was swimming upstream!
Above his head was a passageway leading upwards.
Luo Zheng and others were very familiar with this passage. When they went to the first Clear Sky Platform, they grabbed a fish hook and went up. Now, this passage was full of water. It seemed that they had to swim up.
The people present didn't communicate much. They waved their limbs and swam upward quickly. They thought that they could go to the Clear Sky Platform in this way. However, after swimming for a while, Luo Zheng came out of the water with a splash!
Luo Zheng looked around and his face darkened.
He didn't reach the Clear Sky Platform. This was the middle part of the passage!
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh … "
The others also floated to the surface of the water, looking at their surroundings with strange expressions.
"Are we still in the passage?" Rat King asked.
"See for yourself," Nuwa pointed to the top.
They were originally swimming in an upward passage, which should have led directly to the Clear Sky Platform.
Now the passage was broken in the middle. They were in the lower half, and there was a passage hanging in the distance above their heads.
Donghuang stared and said, "This passage seems to have been maliciously destroyed."
"Who destroyed it? Squeak …" Rat King said.
Nuwa floated on the water and looked up for a while. Then, she smiled and said, "Maybe we guessed right. Those original bodies of the human race should have gone to the Clear Sky Platform."
"Why do you think so?" Elder Ying asked.
"If those original bodies found this passage in the underground kiln to enter the Clear Sky Platform, they still wouldn't be safe. They would still face the pursuit of the Elemental Spirit civilization," Nuwa continued to speculate with a smile. "And to escape the pursuit of the Elemental Spirit civilization, breaking this passage is the best choice. This can effectively block the pursuers behind."
