"So that's how it is!" Seeing Cheng Yu's actions, everyone immediately reacted. They were pleasantly surprised as they quickly revolved the other stone lanterns.
There was a total of 12 stone lanterns. Every stone lantern had a different shape. However, after they revolved, the shadow they projected coincided with the relief on the wall.
Everyone was astonished. The relief suddenly emitted a dazzling golden radiance. Afterward, with the relief as the center, the wall split into 12 pieces, revealing a pitch-black hole.
"That's it! Let's go in and see what treasures are hidden inside, protecting it so mysteriously! "Xin Luo shouted excitedly.
"Wait! Don't be anxious! We have yet to figure out the situation inside. What if there's a trap inside? "Cheng Yu pulled Xin Luo back.
"What Junior Brother Yu said is right. The more secretive the place is, the more dangerous it would be. You must not be impulsive!" Although Xin Luo was somewhat excited, compared to her, he was much more rational.
"En. You guys guard here. I will go in and take a look first." Cheng Yu nodded. Looking at the new passageway that had just appeared, he walked forward.
"Junior Brother Yu, how can you do this? It's too dangerous for you to go in alone. Let me accompany you! "Xin Luo pulled Cheng Yu back.
"No need. Stay behind and help me protect them. I have Huo Yu and Jin Toad. There won't be any danger! Wait for me to ascertain the situation inside before you guys follow me in! "Cheng Yu shook his head, letting go of Xin Luo's hand.
"Cheng Yu, be careful!" Yao Na saw Cheng Yu was going to take the risk alone, so she was very worried.
"Rest assured. I will be fine. You guys have to follow Senior Brother and the rest closely. I hope that in this trip to the Cultivation World, all of you will be able to reap some benefits." Cheng Yu said to the few women with a smile. His expression was very relaxed, hoping to ease their nervousness.
The reason why Cheng Yu didn't put all these women into the Mountain River Diagram but let them stay outside was because he hoped that they would be able to experience more, learn more, reap more benefits, and grow stronger.
Of course, the situation they were facing had far exceeded the Golden Core Realm. Therefore, Cheng Yu had no choice but to be cautious. Once there were any changes, he would put them into the Mountain River Diagram.
The women nodded their heads and held each other's hands. Right now, they could only become Cheng Yu's burden. This caused them to feel uncomfortable, but they had no choice but to support Cheng Yu.
Looking at the pitch-black cave entrance, Cheng Yu ignited his phoenix flame on his hand. He stood at the entrance and observed carefully. When he realized there wasn't any danger, he slowly walked into the cave. Huo Yu and Money Toad followed closely behind Cheng Yu.
Everyone in the hall looked at Cheng Yu nervously as he walked deeper into the cave.
"Junior Brother Yu, how was it? Are there any abnormalities? Can we follow them? " When they saw Cheng Yu's figure had already disappeared, they waited for a moment. Their hearts were somewhat anxious as Xin Luo shouted towards the cave.
However, there was no response from within the cave!
"What should we do? Junior Brother Yu has gone too deep. Can't he hear us? "Xin Luo said anxiously.
"Why don't we go in too? Since Junior Brother Yu has gone so deep, it means that there is no problem here! "Xin Hai said.
"I think we should wait! We should believe in Junior Brother Yu. If we are able to go in, I believe he will remind us! " Xin Yun was more steady. They had so many people. If they couldn't ascertain the safety of the cave, if they were to enter like this, the situation would be unimaginable. Especially when Cheng Yu entered, he had specially asked everyone to take care of a few women. They absolutely couldn't allow anything to happen to them.
"There's no problem. You guys can come in!" Just when Xin Yun's voice faded, Cheng Yu's voice came from within the cave.
"Let's go!" Hearing Cheng Yu's voice, everyone was delighted. The group of them slowly walked into the cave.
"Junior Brother Yu, we finally see you. Just now, we didn't receive any news from you. We were worried to death!" The group of them had entered about 300 meters in. When they saw Cheng Yu and his two pet beasts were standing there motionlessly, everyone's heart finally relaxed.
"Shh!" However, Cheng Yu placed his index finger on his lips, interrupting Xin Hai.
"What's wrong?" Xin Hai enquired puzzledly.
"Look at what's that?" Cheng Yu pointed to the ground and spoke softly.
"What? Blood? This is blood? "Xin Luo squatted on the ground and used her finger to point at the ground a few times. She looked at her finger and spoke in astonishment.
"That's right. If I didn't guess wrongly, this should be the Earth Demon Rhinoceros' blood!" Cheng Yu nodded.
"So you're saying that the Earth Demon Rhinoceros really came in? This is truly a case of wearing out iron shoes in fruitless searching only to find it by chance. This time, we must definitely kill them! "Xin Luo said excitedly.
"Don't be happy too early. This blood is about to solidify. This means that the Earth Demon Rhinoceros has been here for a long time. It seems to be very familiar with this place. We still have to be careful! This fellow was even able to find such a secret passage. This shows that its intelligence is very high. We must not be careless! "Cheng Yu spoke solemnly.
Everyone nodded and followed behind Cheng Yu as they slowly walked into the cave!
"Junior Brother Yu, seems like this Earth Demon Rhinoceros' injuries are quite severe. The deeper we go, the more blood there is!" Xin He saw that the blood on the ground was getting more and more abundant as they walked in. His nervous mood had also relaxed a lot.
Cheng Yu nodded and didn't speak. From the current situation, it was indeed so. However, his heart had a kind of uneasy feeling. It seemed like this time, chasing after the Earth Demon Rhinoceros wasn't that simple.
"Junior Brother, look! What's that? " Everyone walked for about a kilometer before they suddenly entered an open area. It was at this moment, Xin Luo pointed to a place not far away and shouted.
Everyone looked over and were immediately stupefied! That place was actually filled with shiny crystals!
"Crystal! Extreme Demon Beast Crystal! We're rich! So many crystals! "Xin Hai shouted excitedly and was about to rush over.
"Something's wrong!" Suddenly, Cheng Yu stopped and stopped everyone.
"What's wrong? What's wrong? "When they saw Cheng Yu's solemn expression, everyone's heart immediately tightened.
"Look at this wall. There are obvious traces of a battle. Furthermore, this bloodstain is obviously two different types of blood. Other than the Earth Demon Rhinoceros, there are other creatures here!" Cheng Yu commented.
"Junior Brother, look. What's that?" It was at this moment, Xin Yun pointed to the darkness of the cave entrance and exclaimed.
"Earth Demon Rhinoceros!" Cheng Yu lifted up his phoenix flame and tried his best to look forward. He immediately recognized that it was the Earth Demon Rhinoceros' corpse!
"It seems to be dead? Today is really a pie falling from the sky! Let me go retrieve its crystal first! " Xin Luo looked over and was immediately elated. Although the place was filled with crystals, they were here for the Earth Demon Rhinoceros. Now that its corpse was placed in front of them, they couldn't let it go to waste. They rushed forward to retrieve the Earth Demon Rhinoceros's crystal.
"Danger! Quickly retreat! " However, Cheng Yu's eyes stared at the depths of the cave. Suddenly, his complexion changed as he shouted to everyone.
"What … what's that?" The originally excited Xin Luo also noticed the abnormality in the darkness. She saw there was a bright spot in the depths of the darkness and it was getting bigger and bigger.
At this moment, no matter how ignorant Xin Luo was, she knew those were eyes, countless pairs of eyes!
"Xin Luo, quickly retreat!" Xin He shouted.
At this moment, how could Xin Luo dare to disobey? She turned around and ran! However, those eyes seemed to be running even faster. Very quickly, they had already arrived in front of Xin Luo. A shining radiance slashed towards the running Xin Luo.
"Quickly send them out!" Witnessing such a situation, how could Cheng Yu still dare to retreat? He quickly turned around and thrust his sword forward.
Clang! That radiance in the darkness was only five centimeters away from the back of Xin Luo's head. Fortunately, Cheng Yu made a move in time, blocking the radiance.
"Hu! Scared me to death! "Xin Luo stood behind Cheng Yu, patting her chest with all her might. She was so scared that she broke out in cold sweat.
Just now, if it wasn't because Cheng Yu's reaction was fast enough, his head would have been separated from his body. Gently, he touched his neck. Fortunately, his head was still there.
"Junior Sister, bring them out!" Xin He saw Cheng Yu and Xin Luo were facing a group of unknown enemies, so he quickly got Xin Yun and the others to bring the women out. He and Xin Hai turned around and ran towards Cheng Yu duo.
Cheng Yu raised his phoenix flame with his left hand. At this moment, he finally saw the owner of those eyes. It was actually a group of large Yama Waning Moon Scorpions. And the radiance that slashed towards Xin Luo was their waning moon tail.
"Junior Brother Yu, what should we do now?" Xin He looked at the countless of large scorpions, feeling his heart turning numb.
"Have they retreated out?" Cheng Yu didn't answer Xin He's question. What he was worried about was his women. As long as his women were fine, he had no scruples.
"With Xin Yun around, they will be able to retreat safely!" Xin He nodded.
"That's good! Although these scorpions are a group of monarch realm demonic beasts, their strength is only at the Spirit Severing Middle Stage. As long as we are careful, we will be able to retreat safely! " Although Cheng Yu said so, the grave expression on his face told him that the truth wasn't that simple.
"Only at the Spirit Severing Middle Stage?" Hearing Cheng Yu's words, Xin Luo and Xin Hai both felt like dying.
Only he, a late stage Nascent Soul cultivator, would dare to say such words. Even if it was him, a genuine Spirit Severing Middle Stage expert, he wouldn't dare to say such words. Although these scorpions were at the Spirit Severing Middle Stage, to a group of monarch realm demonic beasts, individual strength was no longer that important. Just look at the Earth Demon Rhinoceros's ending.
The Earth Demon Rhinoceros was a high-grade middle-grade demonic beast. Although it was injured, it was still killed by these fellows. It could be seen how terrifying these scorpions were.
These scorpions looked at the four humans and two beasts. They didn't attack immediately but confronted them.
Gulp! Looking at the huge barbs on the waning moon tail of these scorpions and their fierce eyes, Xin Luo unconsciously swallowed her saliva. Her heart was somewhat numb.
"Let's try our best to return to the main hall. This place is too narrow. We can't use our full strength!" Cheng Yu said calmly.
"En!" Xin He and Xin Luo nodded.
Boom! However, the four humans and two beasts started to move backwards. Those scorpions finally launched their attack
