Sima Youyue stood on Chongming's shoulder and watched as the black fog chased after them. No matter how fast they ran, the black fog would catch up with them.
"This is bad." Chongming put down Sima Youyue and the rest. The two of them were dumbfounded. Why was there such a black fog in front of them?!
"This black fog has a dark aura, you guys try to attack with fire!" Chongming said as he turned around and condensed a fireball to attack the black fog that was chasing them.
Sima Youyue and the others also knew that it was not the time to ask why. Since Chongming said to attack with fire, they formed fireballs and attacked the approaching black fog.
"Boom!" The black fog was very corrosive, but just as Chongming said, it belonged to the dark element, and fire was its natural nemesis.
"Chi chi —"
Some of the black fog emitted a rancid smell under the attack of the flames. After struggling for a while, it disappeared.
"It works!"
Sima Youyue and the rest's eyes lit up. They threw out fireballs as if they were free.
The black fog was unable to advance, but they were unable to retreat either.
"The black fog is increasing!" The speed of their fireballs was far slower than the speed of the black fog. Gradually, their path was blocked by the black fog.
The fireballs had no effect on the black fog at all.
"What are these things!" Sima Youyue saw them. "F * ck, these black fog can be reborn!"
"Looks like we scattered their forms, but we didn't hit their core. That's why they were able to gather again after being scattered." Sima You Lin said.
"Eh, the black fog over at Halcyon's side takes a bit longer to gather." Sima You Yue turned around to look at Halcyon's side, and realised that the black fog on both sides were gathering at different times.
"Maybe it's because Chongming's rank is higher than ours, and their flames are stronger than ours. That's why it has this kind of effect." Sima You Lin said.
"High temperature?" Sima Youyue pondered for a moment before she activated the golden flames in her body and tossed some of it to the other side.
"Boom!" The black fog on the other side was burned away in an instant, scaring the two into a daze.
"That's it?" Sima Youyue stared at the empty tunnel in front of her, unable to react.
"They don't seem to have overlapped." Sima You Lin looked at Sima You Yue in shock. What kind of fire did she throw out just now? It actually caused him to feel a terrifying temperature.
"Keep an eye on them. I'll go help Chongming." Sima Youyue saw that Crimson Flame's flame was useful. She turned and ran towards Chongming. She pulled out a flame and threw it towards the black fog opposite him.
"Boom!"
With the same explosion, the black fog disappeared without a trace.
"It's finally clean," Sima Youyue heaved a long sigh of relief, then looked at Chongming and asked, "Are you okay?"
"It's fine." Chongming shook his head, then looked around and said, "We need to choose a direction."
"Let's go in a random direction. Let's see if we can walk out of here. "Sima Youyue said.
The three of them went on their way again. This time, the three of them walked side by side.
"Youyue, what kind of flame is that?" Sima You Lin asked.
"My contracted beast's life flame." Sima Youyue said, "If I knew it would be so useful, I would have used it from the start. Chongming, did you encounter this kind of black fog the last time you came in? "
Chongming shook his head, saying, "The last time I came in, I encountered something else. It wasn't a fixed mechanism. However, it wasn't any easier than the previous one. "
"This black fog has a dark aura. I think the creatures here are of the dark attribute." Sima You Lin said.
"No matter what attribute, I hope we don't encounter it." Sima Youyue said.
"You have its flame. It shouldn't be too much of a problem for you to encounter this kind of attack. I'm just afraid we'll encounter something else. "Chongming said.
They walked in the tunnel for more than half an hour and met a few forks in the road. Every time, they chose based on their intuition. They didn't know where they were.
"There's the sound of water in front." Chongming said.
"Who knows, we might be able to get out!" Sima Youyue said happily.
They followed the sound of water and walked forward. Very quickly, they saw an underground river.
"There's an underground river. I don't know if it leads to the outside." Sima Youyue said.
"Look at the riverside." Sima You Lin pointed at the riverside.
They didn't walk over rashly because they saw something on the riverside — — a few skeletons.
"Who are these people?" Sima Youyue asked.
"Maybe they entered here by accident like us." Sima You Lin said.
"Their heads are facing our direction. This means that they are escaping from the underground river. Looks like this underground river isn't safe." Sima Youyue said.
"Gurgle, gurgle …"
The sound of bubbles suddenly sounded, as if the water was boiling.
"Let's go!" As a sacred beast, Chongming had an extremely sharp intuition towards danger. When he heard the sound of bubbling, he felt a sense of danger.
Sima Youyue turned around and ran. As she ran, she turned back to look and realised that the underground river was bubbling non-stop. Then, the water started to rise.
"Damn, is this really water?" She was shocked by the scene in front of her and couldn't help but curse.
"The water is black. This isn't water at all!" Chongming said, "What a thick dark aura."
The three of them ran forward quickly. They had a feeling that if they touched the water, they would be doomed.
"Roar — —"
A roar suddenly sounded from all directions, causing the three of them to stop.
"What kind of creature is this? Its roar feels like it's piercing my soul." Sima You Lin covered his ears with a pained expression.
"Let's leave quickly." Chongming was the first to wake up. He carried Sima Youyue and Sima You Lin, who were still in a daze, and continued to run.
They turned left and right, trying to get rid of the strange water. However, the water did not retreat when it met the wall. Instead, it flowed along the wall as if it had grown legs.
"Damn, is this really water?" Sima You Lin couldn't help but curse. They had never seen such a strange thing before!
When Sima Youyue heard the roar, it was as if she was frozen. She felt something in the depths of her body stir, as if it was about to burst out.
"Why does it feel so familiar?"
"What is this thing? Why does it resonate with my body? "
"No wonder Chongming said that he felt a similar aura."
"What is it? What's going to rush out?"
She felt a wave of discomfort in her body. The spiritual energy in her body shrank bit by bit into her dantian. Then, a dark aura emitted from her body, shaking off Chongming and Sima You Lin who were holding her.
"Ugh!" Sima Youyue clutched her chest and knelt on one knee. She looked a little weak.
"You yue?" Chongming and Sima You Lin looked at her in shock. They didn't know what was wrong with her.
"Gulp, gulp …" The water from the underground river chased over and flowed down the wall.
"Get back!" Sima Youyue suddenly shouted.
The river water stagnated and actually flowed back the way it came.
