Upon hearing this, the expressions of the few elders from the Purple Qi Pavilion changed slightly. The second level of the Beast Lair was already so dangerous. Yet, Wu Feng still wanted to strengthen himself in the Beast Lair. Furthermore, there were no elders by his side to protect him. It was hard to guarantee that there would not be any problems.
"No, that's too dangerous."
One of the elders frowned. Wu Feng was a genius disciple of the Purple Qi Pavilion. In the future, he would definitely become an ancient martial art practitioner of the intermediate stage of the Golden Elixir realm. He might even cultivate to the later stage of the Golden Elixir realm. Losing one of them would be a great loss.
This time, a large number of ancient martial art practitioners had entered the Tan Zi Beast Lair. It seemed to have disrupted the order in the Beast Lair. Many of the strong monstrous beasts in the Beast Lair were alerted. At this time, the Beast Lair would be even more dangerous.
For example, the Snow Leopard King was usually not easy to encounter, but this time, they had encountered such a terrifying demonic beast not long after they reached the second level. Furthermore, it had attracted a group of demonic beasts. It was clearly not normal.
Those powerful demonic beasts that were usually in deep slumber in the depths of the cave seemed to be walking out of their caves one by one.
"Elder Yu, the purpose of my coming to the Tan Zi Beast Lair this time is to gain experience. Master also has the same intention. How can we give up halfway now? Furthermore, the geniuses of the other sects are all tempering themselves in the Beast Lair. As one of the four great geniuses, how can I shrink back? The disciples of the Purple Qi Pavilion will not lose to anyone. I, Wu Feng, will not lose to anyone either. "
Wu Feng said with a serious expression. Anyone could encounter danger, but why did others dare to take the risk and continue to train and explore in the beast lair? They even continued to charge into deeper levels. If he did not have this courage, then in the near future, it was very likely that he would be overtaken by others, or even left far behind.
If Yin Banshuang and that youth dared to stay and venture deeper into the beast lair, then he, Wu Feng, could do the same.
"Senior Brother, I support you. How can my Senior Brother lose to others? But you must pay attention to your own safety."
Meng Tiantian was the first to raise her hand in agreement because she knew that no one could persuade her Senior Brother at this time. Senior was a man who dared to challenge Jiang Gujian, even though he might not have the ability. But he had always been working hard for this.
The few elders of the Purple Qi Pavilion looked at each other. After a while, they sighed. They all knew that geniuses could only grow strong and healthy through experience. None of the experts had a smooth journey.
In the end, the few elders didn't say anything, which was considered as tacitly agreeing to Wu Feng's decision.
"Elders, please escort Junior Sister safely back to Cropped Top Mountain."
Wu Feng saluted them with his fists. Then, with a flash, he left in the direction that Mo Wen and Yin Banshuang had left in.
…
"Have you found the entrance to the third floor?"
Mo Wen accompanied Yin Banshuang to wander around the second level. Two hours later, he finally said impatiently.
There were monstrous beasts everywhere in the Beast Lair. Even though Mo Wen had a very strong sense of perception and judgment, allowing him to avoid some powerful monstrous beasts from afar, there were just too many monstrous beasts in the second layer. Some monstrous beasts could not be avoided at all. Along the way, he had already lost count of how many monstrous beasts he had killed.
"There are many entrances to the third floor. I'll point in a direction. Do you dare to go?"
Yin Banshuang held the map in her hand. She looked at Mo Wen coldly. This brat was not doing anything and had an impatient look, as though she had begged him to come over.
There were many passageways leading from the second layer to the third layer, but many of them were occupied by very powerful Demonic Beasts. There were even large Demonic Beast Clans. Going to such a place, even if it wasn't certain death, it was definitely looking for trouble.
"If you dare to go, I dare too," Mo Wen said as he rubbed his chin.
Yin Banshuang coldly snorted and ignored him. They continued to run on the wastelands. They were clearly underground, but it was as vast as a world.
After another fifteen minutes, the two of them finally found a safe passageway. They appeared in the third layer from the second layer.
"So cold!"
They had just appeared in the third layer. Before Mo Wen had the time to observe his surroundings, a gust of cold air hit him in the face. Even with his cultivation, he actually felt some goosebumps.
"The temperature in the Tan Zi Beast Lair is very strange. From the third layer onwards, the temperature drops. The lower layers get colder. The fifth layer is the coldest. But when we reach the sixth layer, the temperature changes. It becomes very hot in an instant. The lower layers get hotter. The eighth layer is the hottest. It's like being in a high-temperature furnace. As for the ninth layer, no one has ever entered it before. "
Yin Banshuang was very calm. Clearly, she had long known about the changes in temperature in the Beast Lair. A dense Inner Qi flowed on the surface of her body, blocking out the cold Qi.
The cold Qi in the Beast Lair was very strange. Even ancient martial art practitioners found it difficult to block out all the cold Qi. Even ancient martial art practitioners with high cultivation would feel cold when they appeared here.
"Bear with it for a while. When we reach the fifth layer, you will know what it means to be cold."
Yin Banshuang glanced at Mo Wen. If he could not withstand a little bit of cold, then he was not qualified to cooperate with her. The cold Qi in the Beast Lair did not affect the bodies of ancient martial art practitioners very much. It only made the ancient martial art practitioners feel colder and colder.
It was equivalent to mental torture. As long as one could withstand this kind of cold, there would normally not be any problems.
The place that could form Vital Qi was located in the fifth layer of the Beast Lair. That was the coldest place in the entire Beast Lair. If Mo Wen could not even withstand this little bit of cold, then there was no need for them to continue advancing.
The corner of Mo Wen's mouth curled up. He did not say much. He had seen the Immortal Cultivation world before. Naturally, he would not be too surprised by such a place. On the contrary, such a place was very suitable for ancient martial art practitioners to practice. It could train one's will and body at the same time.
Most likely many ancient martial art practitioners could see this point. However, there were most likely not many who dared to do so. After all, the Beast Lair was the world of monstrous beasts. Even a Martial Arts Grandmaster could not guarantee that they could survive in such a place for a long time.
"Let's go. We will immediately head to the fourth layer. Right now, there are some slight changes in the Beast Lair. If we are lucky, the lower we go, the less dangerous it will be."
Yin Banshuang glanced at her surroundings. Then, she took the lead and flew off in a direction.
The first layer of the Beast Lair was the largest and also had the most monstrous beasts. The lower they went, the smaller the area and the fewer monstrous beasts there were. This time, a large number of human ancient martial art practitioners had entered the Beast Lair. Many powerful monstrous beasts had come out of seclusion from their caves and wandered around the various layers.
Hence, the higher the layer, the easier it was to encounter powerful monstrous beasts. On the contrary, the lower the layer, the chances of encountering powerful monstrous beasts were lower. Moreover, because the monstrous beasts had come out of seclusion, many places where powerful monstrous beasts had died had now become the safest places in the Beast Lair because the monstrous beasts had left their nests.
Of course, that was if one was lucky. The lower they went, they would either not encounter powerful monstrous beasts and have a safe journey. However, once they did encounter one, it would most likely be an extremely terrifying monstrous beast. The chances of survival would be very slim.
Reality proved that Mo Wen and Yin Banshuang's luck was not bad. They did not encounter any powerful monstrous beasts in the third layer. Instead, they easily found a safe passageway to the fourth layer.
Because a large number of powerful monstrous beasts had left their nests, a large number of the monstrous beasts that had been guarding the passageway had left. Hence, the lower they went, the more safe passageways they could pass through. The two of them did not expend much effort and entered the fourth layer from the third layer.
The fourth layer was hazy. The light was far less bright than the second and third layers. It seemed as though the number of glowing ores was also much lesser.
The entire fourth layer was filled with a layer of hazy white fog. Occasionally, a gust of cold wind would blow and an astonishing cold Qi would sweep across the land.
If it was in the outside world, such a frightening cold Qi would certainly freeze the heavens and earth, forming a glacier that would not melt for a thousand years. However, in the fourth layer of the Beast Lair, it was obviously frighteningly cold, but it did not freeze. Occasionally, they could see a pool of clear water rippling on the ground.
"Such a strong cold Qi!"
A look of surprise flashed in Mo Wen's eyes. The cold Qi in the fourth layer was at least five times that of the third layer. Also, the cold could not be blocked at all. For example, if a naked person were to stand in a world of ice and snow with a temperature of more than ten degrees below zero, normal people would not be able to withstand this kind of cold.
The ancient martial art practitioners here were almost no different from normal people. Even Martial Arts Grandmasters were the same.
Hence, the people who could move about in the fourth layer did not depend on their cultivation, but on their willpower. Only those whose willpower was far stronger than the person's could withstand such an environment.
Yin Banshuang also furrowed her brows. The frightening cold Qi caused her to involuntarily suck in a cold breath. However, her expression quickly calmed down. She turned her head to look at Mo Wen. Seeing that Mo Wen still looked as indifferent as before, she nodded her head slightly, somewhat acknowledging Mo Wen's willpower.
She did not know that back then, Mo Wen had traveled all over the world, experienced all kinds of barren mountains and unruly rivers, tasted hundreds of herbs, and used poison to wash his body. He had long since trained his willpower to be as firm as a rock.
A scream suddenly sounded from nearby. It was the scream of a human.
About five hundred meters away from the two of them, there were three people fighting with monstrous beasts. Their clothes were stained with blood, and it was obvious that they had been injured.
"I did not expect to encounter human ancient martial art practitioners right after reaching the fourth layer."
Mo Wen said, a little surprised. Logically speaking, the deeper the layer, the lower the probability of encountering human ancient martial art practitioners. After all, there were not many human ancient martial art practitioners who dared to make it to the fourth layer.
"That is where you are wrong. The area of the fourth layer is most likely less than a tenth of that of the first layer. Even if the number of human ancient martial art practitioners in the fourth layer is only a tenth of that of the first layer, the probability of encountering them is still higher than in the first layer. Also, this time, most of the ancient martial art practitioners who have appeared on Cropped Top Mountain have come for the treasures in the Beast Lair. Every sect has sent their elders, deputy sect leaders, and even sect leaders. It can be said that there are many experts here. "
"Hence, the number of ancient martial art practitioners in the fourth layer might not be much less than in the first layer. Naturally, the probability of encountering them will be much higher."
Other than the ordinary disciples, the people who had come to the Tan Zi Beast Lair this time were mostly the elders and sect leaders of the various large sects. They had come for the treasures in the Beast Lair, so they would naturally work hard to venture deeper. Relatively speaking, the fourth and fifth layers were most suitable for Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioners to obtain treasures. Hence, these two layers would have the most human ancient martial art practitioners gathered. (To be continued.)
