Yun Sheng was silent.
She didn't expect Ji Rumo to have such a pitiful past.
The Emperor Zao In Red, who was high and mighty in the eyes of the world, turned out to be an orphan who was raised by a magical beast.
He even killed the mother beast that raised him with his own hands.
The Zao State was a land of tigers and wolves.
What the Zao State needed was a group of brave and cold-blooded summoners. Killing the mother beast that raised them with their own hands was a step that all orphan summoners had to go through.
If they couldn't do it, they would be thrown into the Magic Beast Forest. What awaited them was only death.
Time passed unknowingly, and the sun gradually set.
For most of the remaining time, Ji Rumo didn't speak again. He seemed to be immersed in his own memories. He just stood in front of the graveyard for a long time without speaking.
Yun Sheng didn't know what to say, and Xiao Hei obediently crawled to the side.
On the desolate slope, two silhouettes appeared exceptionally bleak.
"Thank you for accompanying me to pay respects." Ji Rumo spoke again. An Hour had already passed. His voice was still warm and pleasant, but there was a hint of relief in it.
Ji Rumo had never tried to let down his guard in front of a stranger.
Or rather, he had never said so much in front of anyone.
He saw a touch of pity in the eyes of this female summoner. He didn't like pity, but this trace of pity made him feel unexpectedly close.
Perhaps it was because this female summoner looked sallow and emaciated, but she had a pair of clean eyes.
This made him involuntarily think of Yun Sheng.
That was the only woman in the world that he had feelings for.
After talking to a stranger, Ji Rumo felt a lot more comfortable in his heart.
Ji Rumo looked up at the sky. Unknowingly, it was almost time for the morning court. He nodded at Yun Sheng. "Recently, there has been something wrong in the Magic Beast Forest. I hope you can find the reason as soon as possible. However, don't try to enter the volcanic lake. "
After Ji Rumo gave a friendly warning, magic flashed and he disappeared.
He came and went without a trace, as if he had never appeared.
After Ji Rumo left, Yun Sheng did not leave immediately.
She left the mound and returned to the volcanic lake.
Despite Ji Rumo's reminder, Yun Sheng did not intend to give up the search. She searched around the volcanic lake.
There were indeed unfamiliar footprints near the mouth of the volcano. It might be difficult for an ordinary person to discover them, but for Yun Sheng, who possessed the Shen Nong Pupil and had superior eyesight, she quickly captured this point.
According to the news brought back by the magical beasts last night, as well as what the Summoners had said earlier, Yun Sheng was certain that there were no problems with the water, soil, and food of the magical beasts in the Magical Beast Forest.
However, it was also a fact that Magical Beasts had died near the mouth of the volcano.
Staring at the clear volcanic lake, Yun Sheng fell into deep thought.
Just as Yun Sheng was deep in thought, she heard a heavy breathing sound beside her ear. Turning back, she realized that something was wrong with Xiao Hei.
It seemed to be a little irritable, and near the mouth of the volcano, it stuck out its tongue from time to time and kept panting.
Xiao Hei was not an ordinary magical beast. It was a Holy Beast. Normal high temperatures and long distance travel were nothing to it. Hence, its strange behavior attracted Yun Sheng's attention.
Magical beasts were always more sensitive than humans. Could it be that Xiao Hei had discovered something?
"Xiao Hei? What's wrong? "Yun Sheng and Xiao Hei communicated with each other using their divine senses.
"Master, I have an indescribable feeling. I feel a tightness in my chest, and I want to leave this place quickly." Xiao Hei told Yun Sheng the truth.
Xiao Hei also told Yun Sheng that the closer they got to the mouth of the volcanic lake, the more intense its irritation became. It felt as if the blood vessels in its body were about to explode.
Yun Sheng suddenly remembered the cause of death of the magical beast that she had dissected earlier.
Those magical beasts seemed to have different degrees of blood reflux and symptoms of being scared to death. These were very similar to what Xiao Hei was saying.
Xiao Hei was a Holy Beast, but even it could not resist, not to mention those ordinary high-level magical beasts.
Yun Sheng was even more certain that the unknown cause of the deaths of the magical beasts was the volcanic lake, or rather, the volcanic seal.
Yun Sheng decided that they still had to dive into the volcanic lake.
The water in this lake was very clear, and it looked no different from ordinary drinking water. However, the volcanic seal left behind by the first Emperor Zao was hidden beneath it.
The first Emperor Zao of the Zao State, who was also the master of the Summoning Demon Hand.
He was the most powerful master of the mainland who had once fought against the leaders of the Bhakra Orcs.
Only such a person would be able to seal an active volcano. The guardian beast that he had left behind must be very powerful.
At the last moment, Yun Sheng's curiosity as a doctor won out, and she decided to explore the volcanic lake.
Before entering the volcanic lake, Yun Sheng summoned the Abyssal Tentacle Sunflower King that she had just contracted not long ago.
Among all of Yun Sheng's summoned beasts, only King Anemone Abyssalis was considered an aquatic magical plant.
The volcanic lake looked clear, but its exact depth was unknown.
Knowing that Yun Sheng wanted to enter the lake, the King AnemoneTentacle did not hesitate and stretched out its tentacles.
The Abyss King Anemone's tentacles were of different lengths, and it quickly divided into two layers. The outer layer, as usual, was used to paddle after entering the water.
The inner layer formed a protective shield, tightly wrapping Yun Sheng inside to prevent anything from seeping in.
After Yun Sheng was wrapped by Anemone Abyssalis, she realized that the Sunflower King's tentacles had become transparent. This way, the surrounding environment could be seen clearly, and her breathing was not affected too much.
This feeling made Yun Sheng feel as if she was alone in a glass shield, and she could clearly see the situation around her.
"Master, the air in the tentacles can provide you with about three Hour of breathing. After three Hour, we have to leave the sea," the King AnemoneTentacle reminded Yun Sheng.
Yun Sheng thought for a moment. Three Hour, including the diving speed of King Anemone Abyssalis, should be enough for her to reach the bottom of the volcanic lake.
King Anemone Abyssalis obeyed the order, entered the lake, and quickly sank.
The depth of the volcanic lake, as Yun Sheng expected, was unfathomable. The temperature of the lake was suitable, and there were many colorful coral-like volcanic lava deposits around it.
After sinking for more than an Hour, they still did not see the bottom.
At this time, Anemone Abyssalis suddenly said, "Master, the bottom of this lake seems to lead directly to the Penglai Sea. If we go any deeper, we will probably enter the Penglai Sea. Do we still want to dive?"
It turned out that this volcanic lake actually led directly to the other side of the sea.
Since they had already dived to this point, Yun Sheng felt that it was necessary to continue investigating. She ordered the Abyss King Anemone to continue diving.
