The terrifyingly high temperature caused the cavern around Lu Sheng to expand several times its original size. Large amounts of melted water flowed down.
But Lu Sheng didn't notice it at all. Because as the cavern expanded, his body also grew bigger without him realizing it.
As the process progressed, he actually felt the cavern getting smaller and smaller.
'Eight-Headed Griffon … Legend has it that it can swallow the sun. It's said to be the ancestor of the Yang energy that gives life to all things. Wherever it goes, there's drought, heat, and reproduction. Who would've thought that something like this would happen when the Yin Flame is upgraded to this level … 'Lu Sheng frowned slightly.
He looked at the Yin Flame's frame again. The button behind it had disappeared. He still had enough Mental Energy, but he couldn't see the derive button. This meant …
'This means that the derivation of this secret art has failed. It has reached the limit of its conception and theory.' Lu Sheng recalled that he had encountered a similar situation in the past.
'This secret art has been derived with many complicated techniques and secret arts. It can't just be called the Three Yin Technique anymore. Since it's derived with Mental Energy, it has the appearance of the Eight-Headed Griffon, and its core is a bead. I might as well call it the Eight-Headed Divine Bead. '
He willed. Immediately, the corresponding words appeared on the Modifier's frame.
'Eight-Headed Divine Art: Level Eight. Special Effect: Eight-Headed Divine Bead, Fire Strengthening Level Five.'
'I can test out the power of this bead.' Lu Sheng's instincts told him that this bead was quite powerful. Anyway, he was very far away from the Prime Devil Sect. He didn't have to worry about any accidents happening to the sect.
He looked around and found the direction of a cave wall. Then, he stretched out his hand and began to dig deeper into the cave wall.
After digging for a few hundred meters, Lu Sheng tossed the Eight-Headed Divine Bead forward. At the same time, he jumped back.
The Eight-Headed Divine Bead that had just left his hand burned through the rock and fell as soon as it touched the wall.
Before Lu Sheng could figure out where the bead had gone, he felt the earth tremble and the mountains shake. The entire cavern began to shake.
"Chi!"
A purple flame burst out of the ground, forming a purple pillar of fire.
Then came the second, the third, the fourth …
Chi chi chi chi!
Purple pillars of fire broke through the stone walls from the ground and hit the rocks above, creating many more black holes.
Buzz …
The cave trembled and swayed as if it was being violently shaken by some great force.
BOOM!!!
All of a sudden, the rocks beneath Lu Sheng's feet crumbled. Caught off guard, he also fell down.
As a large number of stones fell together, Lu Sheng could clearly see that the place he was at before was actually directly above a huge cave.
The Eight-Headed Divine Pearl he had just thrown out was now lying quietly on the body of a huge black minotaur with antlers.
Countless spikes extended from the walls of the cave and pinned the Minotaur in the middle. It was as if the entire cavern existed solely to seal it.
Chi!
The Eight-Headed Divine Pearl shot out pillars of purple flames in all directions.
Lu Sheng had already noticed that one-third of the stone pillars in the cavern had been burned down by the purple flames. He squinted his eyes and somersaulted in the air, landing lightly on a huge rock on the ground.
The 30-meter tall Minotaur seemed to have woken up from a long slumber.
It let out a low moan. The thick black beard on its chin was like countless ropes, swaying as its head moved.
"Ugh …"
A loud and heavy sound reverberated in the cavern. The Minotaur's mouth spewed out large amounts of white gas. It slowly opened its dark red eyes with strange symbols.
Lu Sheng took a few steps forward and stepped on another huge rock. He looked up at the Behemoth in front of him.
Even his Yang Extreme Mode couldn't compare to a 30-meter tall creature.
"Who are you?" The Minotaur said slowly. "I smell a fragrant scent from your body … Is it another new offering?"
"Offering?" Lu Sheng quickly understood what kind of being this person was.
It must be the Prime Devil Sect's rumored Devil that was sealed in the deepest part. And a Devil in this state …
It lowered its head slightly and cracked a smile. Its two rows of sharp and dense teeth glowed with a cold and cruel light.
"I've wanted to experience the strength of a sealed Devil for a long time now. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to find it. "
"Oh??" The Minotaur was surprised. "You want to challenge me?"
"Challenge?" Lu Sheng looked up. Strangely, he also smelled a rich fragrance on the Minotaur's body. And there was a strong sense of weakness in it.
"I just want to … kill you!!"
"Yin Yang Integration!"
Countless purple flames exploded. Lu Sheng's body expanded rapidly, jumping from Yang Extreme Mode to Yin Yang Integration Liquefied Qi.
The rock under his feet exploded. Countless rocks flew everywhere. He appeared in front of the Minotaur in the blink of an eye.
"Die!!!" His arms were chopped off.
"A mere sacrifice!!" The Minotaur roared. His hands appeared in front of him like lightning, and he slammed them together toward Lu Sheng.
"Boom!!!"
…
The secret chamber was dark and quiet. Only a ray of light shone on Huang Fu's eyes.
His eyes were tightly shut, and the rest of his body was in complete shadow.
"Eldest Senior Brother, Wan Shun Palace's Senior Brother Bai is here again. He says he wants to ask you about the situation," a sect disciple guarding outside the secret chamber said respectfully.
Huang Fu quietly closed his eyes, as if he didn't hear it at all.
The disciple was puzzled and could only repeat it again.
After a while, Huang Fu slowly opened his eyes. A red light flashed in his eyes.
"Let him come," he replied in a low voice.
"Yes."
The disciple slowly retreated and went into the distance.
Huang Fu sat cross-legged for a while longer, then slowly stood up and opened the door of the secret chamber. Bai Xiu was already standing outside waiting for him.
"Fu, something's wrong!" Bai Xiu said in a low voice with an ugly expression.
"Can you not call me Fu?" Huang Fu said helplessly. "What's going on?"
"There's also a situation in the city. Last night, the Arrest Department received a total of forty-three arrest warrants. The people arrested are all ordinary citizens, and none of them have ever committed crimes before!" Bai Xiu answered solemnly.
"Oh?" Hearing this, Huang Fu's expression also turned serious. "Where are those people now?"
"They're locked in the underground prison in the west of the city."
"Take me there!" Huang Fu tidied his robe, a bad feeling rising in his heart.
The two left the West Infinity Court's station and rode their horses straight to the underground prison in the west of the city.
When they arrived, a prison guard received the order and volunteered to lead the way.
"Sirs, you didn't see it last night when they were first captured. Each of them seemed to have lost their minds, acting crazily. Even when questioned, they didn't know anything. Heh, a few of our brothers were bitten by those lunatics without any regard for their lives."
"Let's go in and take a look first," Huang Fu said in a low voice.
"Yes, yes, yes. What you hear may not be true. "The prison guard seemed to have been educated for a few years as he squeezed out a few words in a genteel manner.
Although he didn't know the identity of these two people, for his direct superior to call him over and give him instructions, they must be very important people.
If he didn't serve them well, there would be big trouble in the end.
He led the two into the prison guard of the yamen and stood in front of a tunnel at the back.
"Huh? Where's Little Chen and Little Li? Shouldn't it be their turn to stand guard last night? "The prison guard was puzzled.
"You mean, there should have been two people standing guard here?" Bai Xiu's expression darkened as he asked in a low voice.
"Yes, yes, yes. Sirs, there should have been two. Even if one of them went to the toilet, one of them should have stayed. If they were caught by the patrol team, their pay would be deducted," the prison guard explained.
"Forget it, we won't wait any longer. Sirs, please follow me. I have the key here. You can look around the first three floors," the prison guard said proudly. He strode towards the heavy iron door of the prison.
"Pa."
Suddenly, a hand grabbed his shoulder.
"Wait," Huang Fu said in a low voice.
Without waiting for the prison guard to look at him strangely, he slowly walked forward and used his hand to wipe away the bloodstain in the corner of the iron door.
"Be careful," Huang Fu warned and pushed lightly. The iron door wasn't locked at all and opened on its own.
"This!!?" The prison guard was dumbfounded. Holding the key in his hand, he hadn't figured out what was going on when the two sirs walked straight into the tunnel.
He hurriedly followed.
But as soon as he caught up with them, the scenes he saw almost made him throw up all the soup and rice he ate last night.
Broken limbs, mangled flesh, crushed heads, dismembered corpses, and a thick blanket of blood splattered all over the walls.
"Be careful!" Bai Xiu suddenly pulled the prison guard away.
"Bam!!"
A huge black shadow more than two meters wide slowly crawled up from the ground beside the prison guard.
"Hiss …"
This was a species that looked like a human, but wasn't actually human. It was giving off the faint impression of a snake.
It looked like a huge black spider, its pale white limbs crouching on the ground as it crawled forward. Its hands and feet were covered in big and small grape-shaped pustules.
"It's … a Crimson Demon!!?" The moment he saw this guy, Bai Xiu's expression changed.
"Ring ring ring …"
All of a sudden, the entire sky above White Bell City was filled with the crisp sound of wind chimes. The countless wind chimes hanging on the tall tower all started ringing as a warning.
"Whoosh!"
A dot of white light shot into the sky.
Then, whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh, hundreds and thousands of lights followed.
The white light in the sky connected with each other, forming a landscape painting that could almost cover half of White Bell City.
"Return of the Heavenly Moon, Nine Revolutions of the Howling Wind." A figure as black as ink shot into the sky and embedded itself into the center of the painting, as if it was the only black dot on a piece of white paper, incomparably clear.
"Go!!" The man pointed his sword forward.
Instantly, the entire huge painting slowly flew forward. He charged towards the countless black monsters that were flying towards him from afar.
"It's the Heavenly Moon Landscape Formation of the Shangyang Family! All the painters are out! "Bai Xiu's expression froze.
"That's …" Huang Fu saw the ink-like horde of Demons far away in the sky.
"Demon Disaster …!" Bai Xiu's face paled.
Amidst the countless Demons, in the ink-black formation, two huge silver-gray eyes could be vaguely seen, staring at the entire White Bell City through space.
