Seeing such a scene, not to mention Dai Xuanzi himself, even the faces of his followers turned purple.
Previously, they were arrogant and wanted others to risk their lives to explore the cave. They looked as if they could not be refused.
Many people present knew that it was impossible for Dai Xuanzi to fulfill his promise of an upper-grade divine weapon in the name of the Residence of the Great Void Divine General.
Especially He Zhibai and the dozens of people around him, they understood his style of doing things very well.
Therefore, in the beginning, although many people were discussing fervently and were eager to give it a try, no one directly agreed to his request.
However, no one expected that the purple-robed young man who jumped out of nowhere dared to touch the whiskers of the Residence of the Great Void Divine General. He was too bold!
Dai Xuanzi was not only beaten up by him, but he also wanted to throw them into the cave.
Anyone could discern that the danger within was definitely extraordinary. If anything were to happen to Dai Xuanzi, then the enmity between the violet robed young man and the Great Void Divine General's Estate would really be irreconcilable!
The moment Dai Xuanzi's subordinate was thrown into the cave, everyone's eyes turned to look at him at the same time.
Compared to the feud between Du Shaofu and Dai Xuanzi, they were more interested in the changes in the cave. They wanted to know immediately.
However, to their disappointment, there was no unusual movement from there. There were still flashes of light inside and there were no unusual fluctuations.
The person who was thrown in did not move either. It was like a clay ox entering the sea.
"Why is there no movement? Is there no danger down there?"
"That's impossible. We're just standing here, but we can feel the fear from the depths of our souls. It can't be fake!"
"Could it be that the person was killed by some powerful existence and there was no sound at all?"
"If … if that's the case, it's too scary!"
…
Many people began to wonder if the danger inside was so terrifying that it could kill people in an instant.
The few people who were originally eager to give it a try because of Dai Xuanzi's temptations finally began to feel a chill run down their spines. They secretly rejoiced that they hadn't let the benefits get to their heads so quickly.
That guy who was thrown down had a late-stage Void Return Realm cultivation. He was not even comparable to him.
If they were to enter the cave, they wouldn't even know how they died.
"Something's not right!"
Du Shaofu also muttered. His brows were slightly furrowed and his eyes narrowed.
Others might not know, but he knew very well that although he had placed a restriction on Dai Xuanzi's subordinate, it was only an extremely weak seal. It would only trap him for a short while at most.
Du Shaofu had already calculated that when that person fell into the cave, he would be able to break the seal in an instant and restore his original cultivation.
Otherwise, sending a person who had lost all his strength to scout the situation was no different from sending him to his death.
However, things didn't develop in the direction Du Shaofu had imagined. After that person entered the cave, he didn't make any sound at all, nor did he use his cultivation to escape.
It was obvious that there was a terrifying existence below. In an instant, that person lost the ability to resist and didn't even have the chance to howl.
Such a situation caused a wisp of nervousness to arise in Du Shaofu's heart.
'There's bound to be something extremely rare in a place with great danger!'
Everyone had the same thought. They wanted to know what kind of treasure was hidden below the cave, but no one dared to go down rashly. They were afraid that they would lose their lives instead of obtaining the treasure.
"Let's go down and have a look!"
Du Shaofu said softly. He turned his gaze and stared at another subordinate beside Dai Xuanzi.
The Golden Roc behind him flapped its wings and charged in front of that subordinate, then it picked him up.
The difference in strength between the two of them was so great that Dai Xuanzi's subordinate was thrown out by Du Shaofu before he could react.
"You …"
Dai Xuanzi's eyes were about to burst into flames. He was so angry that his lips were trembling.
Throwing his subordinates in right in front of his face was a blatant slap to his face. This was simply too arrogant!
Dai Xuanzi was furious, but he didn't dare to do anything else.
Otherwise, he wasn't sure if the audacious purple-robed young man would throw him in as well.
Dai Xuanzi didn't say anything and just stared at him with hatred.
As long as he could get away today, he would definitely make him kneel in front of him in the future!
Du Shaofu didn't care about Dai Xuanzi's murderous gaze at all.
The situation inside the cave was more attractive than Dai Xuanzi's existence.
After he threw the second person out, his figure moved swiftly and flew high into the sky, looking down at the entrance of the cave from above.
At the same time, he spread out the powerful power of his soul to spy on the situation inside.
After that person entered the cave, Du Shaofu finally saw a ripple in space several hundred meters below him. Then, that person's figure vanished in an instant. It was as if he had entered another space, and even the power of his soul couldn't detect him.
However, when Du Shaofu looked down from above, he could only see that the cave was like a world of lava. His eyes were filled with a dazzling scarlet red that released intense waves of air. There was also a dangerous aura that penetrated his body and soul.
"Could there be a spatial barrier that's isolated the existence of another space?"
Du Shaofu speculated. His soul couldn't detect any information at all, so he could only make a judgment based on his feelings.
If that was the case, it would explain why the two people who entered the cave didn't make any noise at all.
Presumably, the two of them had already entered another space at this time.
Du Shaofu was very curious and wanted to know what was inside.
He didn't waste any more time and rushed straight down into the cave.
"He went in!"
"There's obviously extreme danger inside. Why did he go in just like that?"
"What should we do? Should we go in too?"
When they saw Du Shaofu rush into the cave, there was a commotion among the people around He Zhibai.
They had been there for some time, but they all stopped because of the dangerous aura emitted from the cave. No one had the guts to go in first to check it out. They were afraid that their actions would benefit others, and the losses would outweigh the gains.
At that moment, the purple-robed young man also rushed in after throwing the two people from the Great Void General's Residence in. Could he have discovered something?
Everyone was hesitant and didn't know what to do.
He Zhibai's subordinates all stared at his face, hoping that he would give them clear instructions.
However, He Zhibai was also hesitating and didn't know what to do.
"Let's go!"
On the other side, when Dai Xuanzi saw Du Shaofu's figure disappear, he said to his subordinates.
He took a deep look at the dark cave and gritted his teeth. With a strong sense of unwillingness, he turned around and left.
The rest of the people around him all heaved a sigh of relief. They felt lucky to have survived a disaster.
The purple-robed young man was too powerful. Not to mention their third young master, even the other two young masters in the Great Void General's Residence were not much stronger than him!
The cave definitely contained extreme danger. Otherwise, their two companions wouldn't have gone in without making a sound.
If everyone was thrown in by the young man, the result would be obvious!
At that moment, the terrifying fellow had finally disappeared. If they didn't take the opportunity to leave, when would they?
"Leave a few people nearby and keep an eye on that brat. If there's any news, report to me at once! In the territory of Yuqing Holy Kingdom, it's not his place to do as he pleases! "
Dai Xuanzi's eyes were extremely gloomy. His face looked as if it was about to drip water as he ordered.
As soon as he finished speaking, the group of people quickly flew into the sky and left the valley.
He Zhibai saw all of this. He still looked indifferent and elegant, appearing extremely otherworldly.
After watching Dai Xuanzi leave, He Zhibai once again turned his gaze to the dark cave entrance.
"Two of you, go down with me to take a look. The rest of you, stay here in case anything happens!"
He ordered softly, "Great opportunities are naturally accompanied by great dangers. However, if a cultivator doesn't experience danger, he won't be able to achieve great cultivation. No matter who gets the treasure in the end, it's good for us to go down and take a look! "
As He Zhibai spoke, his figure swept forward. The two people beside him followed at the same time and quickly entered the cave entrance.
In fact, if it wasn't for the conflict between Dai Xuanzi and Du Shaofu, he would have gone down to check it out long ago.
After witnessing the purple-robed young man's strength, He Zhibai's interest in him was no less than the treasure in the cave.
In the valley, there were less than twenty people left watching Du Shaofu, He Zhibai, and the other three enter the cave. Other than the dozen followers of He Zhibai, the others were all bewildered and didn't know if they should follow them.
Experts like Dai Xuanzi and He Zhibai had been so careful before. They didn't want to go down and throw away their lives.
However, the temptation of the treasure was too great. No one wanted to give up just like that.
In the end, four people walked out and quickly rushed into the cave.
…
The moment Du Shaofu rushed into the cave, he felt a chill in his Primordial Spirit. An indescribable feeling of palpitations arose in his heart.
It wasn't a sudden feeling. It was something that had happened outside. It was just that it was magnified many times.
As far as his eyes could see, the space below was extremely wide. There was a large area that looked like underground lava. It was releasing blazing heat, burning the space inside to the point that it was constantly distorting and collapsing.
Even with Du Shaofu's cultivation, he couldn't help but feel an intense heat under such high temperature. Fine beads of sweat covered his body and flowed down.
When Du Shaofu descended to a position, he suddenly stopped and didn't continue forward.
Less than half a meter below him was the place where the two people he had thrown in earlier had disappeared. There was an invisible barrier there, which should be a door to an unknown space. Once touched, one's entire body would disappear.
No one knew what kind of situation the two people who had entered earlier were in. It was hard to say whether they were dead or alive.
Du Shaofu didn't dare to rashly descend. He just stood quietly in the air and observed, hoping to find some useful clues.
"That's …"
Du Shaofu's gaze swept across the lava space below. There was a vast sea of lava there. It was like boiling water, and fiery red heat waves rippled out.
But at a certain moment, his eyes suddenly narrowed. His heart thumped as if he had been electrocuted.
"Is this the treasure?"
In his line of sight, a blood-red lotus took root in the lava, swaying along with the rising and falling red waves.
Specks of crystalline light were slowly released, but in Du Shaofu's eyes, the unremarkable light was extremely dazzling. It was like a tiny sun, and the invisible heat seemed to be able to scorch the soul and incinerate it into nothingness.
Below the blood-red lotus, a few jade-green lotus leaves floated. A few drops of crimson lava rolled on them, making the lotus look even more enchanting.
This was an extremely strange scene. There was a blood lotus growing in the sea of magma. It could be considered a good match. However, with the addition of a few dark green lotus leaves, one could not help but feel an extreme sense of disharmony.
Under such terrifying heat, ordinary plants shouldn't be able to survive.
But at this moment, this strange scene was clearly presented in front of Du Shaofu.
"Blood Flame Lotus! That's the Blood Flame Lotus! I didn't expect there to be such a treasure here! "
Just as Du Shaofu was in a daze, He Zhibai and the others who had entered the cave arrived.
When he saw the strange plant, he could not help but cry out in extreme shock. Other than that, there was also an indescribable excitement.
"Blood Flame Lotus?"
Du Shaofu was confused. He had never heard of a treasure like the Blood Flame Lotus before.
There seemed to be no record of this item in the many ancient books in Shen Wu World.
When he heard He Zhibai mention it, Du Shaofu couldn't help but look at him and ask, "May I ask, what's so special about this Blood Flame Lotus?"
Before He Zhibai could answer, his two subordinates and the four experts who had just followed him all looked at Du Shaofu with puzzled eyes, revealing an expression of disbelief.
"You don't even know about the Blood Flame Lotus? Where did this guy come from?"
"Could it be that he's faking it to make fun of us?"
The few of them were muttering in their hearts, but no one voiced out their suspicions.
They were very suspicious. With the strength of the purple-robed youth, he could definitely be considered a powerhouse among the younger generation in the 33 Heavens. Perhaps he came from a force that was not weaker than the sacred grounds of the Chang Rong Heaven.
But his cultivation and knowledge didn't seem to match.
Therefore, some people even guessed that this guy was mocking them.
It was also with such thoughts that the few people who had entered this place later became even more vigilant, afraid that they would follow in the footsteps of the two people in the Divine General's Residence.
"Brother, you may not know, but this Blood Flame Lotus is a strange item that can only be seen in the Land of Extreme Yang. In such an extreme environment, there shouldn't be any plants, but when things reach an extreme, they will move in the opposite direction. Extreme Yin gives birth to Yang, and extreme Yang will also give birth to extreme Yin objects. The Bloodflame Divine Lotus is an item of extreme yin, and it contains an extremely dense amount of fire attribute energy. If a cultivator who has grasped the Laws of Fire were to obtain it and refine it, they would definitely be able to obtain unparalleled benefits along the way! "
He Zhibai didn't think much of it and only smiled lightly as he explained to Du Shaofu.
He didn't have any vigilance or fear towards this purple-robed youth.
Instead, because of the strength he had displayed when dealing with Dai Xuanzi and the others, He Zhibai wanted to befriend him.
Of course, the more friends he had, the better, especially those who were strong.
"Since this Blood Flame Lotus is an extreme Yin object, why does it contain the strongest fire attribute energy?"
Du Shaofu was a little puzzled and asked He Zhibai politely.
He Zhibai unconsciously had a good impression of this young man who looked similar to Qiangu Yu.
At the very least, when Dai Xuanzi had asked for an outsider to come down and explore first, this person had rejected very straightforwardly. Obviously, he wasn't an unscrupulous person.
Du Shaofu himself had just arrived in the 33 Heavens and knew nothing about everything here. He needed someone to explain many things to him so that it would be convenient for him to do things in the future.
"Extreme Yang gives birth to Yin, so this Blood Flame Lotus is naturally an extreme Yin object. However, when things reach an extreme, they will move in the opposite direction. It's common sense for an extreme Yin object to carry the power of extreme Yang! If it had the power of extreme Yin, it wouldn't have formed such an environment. I'm afraid it would have clashed with this Lava World long ago and destroyed this place! "
He Zhibai smiled faintly as he explained unhurriedly.
As he spoke, his gaze slowly shifted to the Blood Flame Lotus with an indescribable desire.
"Could it be that Brother He's cultivation method is the law of fire?"
Du Shaofu glanced at He Zhibai and asked.
Although He Zhibai's expression was very calm, he didn't hide the passion in his eyes. It was obvious that he coveted this treasure very much.
"To tell you the truth, Little Brother, this one cultivates the law of fire!"
He Zhibai didn't hide anything and answered rather straightforwardly.
"Since that's the case, let's go down together. As for who can obtain it, that will depend on their own luck! "
Du Shaofu nodded and said.
He admired He Zhibai's straightforward character and didn't put on any pretense.
Although He Zhibai's temperament was completely different from Qiangu Yu's, the two's characters were extremely similar in this regard.
