At the end of the horizon, there was fog and a mountain range could be seen faintly.
At the bottom of the mountain range, there was a deep mine.
Logically speaking, with such a huge mountain range, it would be difficult to find a mine.
However, that mine seemed to have a strange magical power.
As long as one looked in the direction of the mountain range, the mine would appear in their sight.
"Young Master Jun, are we really going in?"
Lilia felt an inexplicable fear in her heart. That mine made her feel repulsed and fearful.
"We will definitely die outside. There might be a chance of survival if we go in. That is our only chance of survival!"
Jun Wu Xie replied. There was no other choice.
That mine was very strange. How could he not know?
Back then, he had picked up the bronze key to the Shrine of Eternal Life in front of the mine.
A completely different life had begun.
"Human, there will be no place for you to hide!"
The fire dragon chased after them. Its roars shook the mountains and the earth. The terrifying sound waves were like waves that swept out in all directions.
It chased after Jun Wu Xie and Lilia into the foggy area.
Behind them, the various forces, Sage Sects, and Beast Kings also caught up.
That mysterious mine was right in front of them.
They were getting closer and closer.
Jun Wu Xie's heart was suddenly filled with an uneasy feeling. Her hair stood on end and goosebumps rose all over her body.
"Human! As long as you are willing to hand over the Fire Lotus, I can spare your life! "
The fire dragon that was chasing after them suddenly said.
At this moment, Lilia had brought Jun Wu Xie to the entrance of the ancient mine.
A mysterious and cold aura emanated from it, causing them to shiver involuntarily.
"Human, don't go any further. Once you enter the Ancient Burial Ground, you will definitely die! Hand over the Fire Lotus and I will not kill you! "
The fire dragon's voice was a little anxious. To it, the Sun True Lotus was the most important thing.
"Young Master Jun, are we really going in?"
Lilia's body trembled slightly. The aura in the mine made her feel a little frightened.
Especially when the fire dragon said that the Ancient Burial Ground was inside, it made her feel even more uneasy.
"Lilia, listen to me. The Fire Lotus has already fused with me and it's impossible for us to separate again. Therefore, we have no other choice. Besides, do you really believe that the Fire Dragon will let us go after obtaining the Fire Lotus? "
Jun Wu Xie did not waver at all.
Not only was there a Fire Dragon behind him, but there were also experts from the Sacred Gate and ancient remnant beasts.
"Lilia, let's go!"
Jun Wu Xie saw that the various forces and Beast Kings were about to reach here.
Lilia no longer hesitated and rushed into the mine like the wind.
Hum!
The fire dragon roared furiously.
"Damned humans!"
A look of madness flashed across its eyes as it swayed its body and rushed into the mine.
The tunnel inside the cave was very wide, dark and deep, with many twists and turns.
There were no forks in the road, only a single passage. A faint smell of decay pervaded the air, and white bones were scattered about.
After a hundred miles, there was no road ahead.
"Young Master Jun, this place doesn't seem to be that scary. We have already reached the end. What should we do next?"
She stopped at the end of the tunnel, treating Jun Wu Xie as her backbone.
"It can't be. If it was just a simple cave, the Fire Dragon wouldn't be so afraid!"
Jun Wu Xie activated his Primordial True Eyes to check the surroundings.
At this moment, the Fire Dragon was about to catch up.
"Young Master Jun, hurry!"
Lilia paced back and forth anxiously.
Suddenly, a strange light lit up under her feet.
There was a loud rumble!
The ground under her feet suddenly disappeared. She and Jun Wu Xie fell down together.
It was pitch-black all around, and they couldn't even see their own fingers.
Jun Wu Xie's Primordial True Eyes could vaguely see that this was a tunnel, and it was very steep.
Their bodies stuck close to the tunnel as they slid down rapidly.
The tunnel seemed to have no end.
They didn't know how long they had slid down.
It was only after a long time that they saw some light, and then they fell out of the exit.
The aura here was even colder, and there was a strange smell in the air.
Jun Wu Xie pulled Lilia up from the ground and looked around.
This was an empty cave. Dozens of meters ahead, there was a bottomless cliff.
On the opposite side of the cliff, there was a huge protruding mountain rock. The surface of the rock was very flat, and there were even strange patterns carved on the ground.
In the center of those patterns, there was a one-meter tall circular stone platform. On the stone platform, there was a huge oval-shaped light door, flowing with grayish-green light.
"Let's go over!"
Jun Wu Xie didn't hesitate and pulled Lilia to the cliff.
The cliff was about two to three thousand meters wide, and there was a thick fog lingering around it. It was impossible to see what was below.
The fog was very cold, and it was a little bone-piercing, causing one to feel cold all over.
Lilia tried to cross the cliff. Just as she took a step, her body suddenly sank, and she fell into the abyss.
Jun Wu Xie's eyes were sharp and her hands were quick as she pulled her back.
Lilia said with lingering fear, "There are forbidden spells here, and there is a terrifying gravitational field. We can't fly!"
Roar!
The Fire Dragon's low and angry roar came from the tunnel behind them.
However, there was a faint sense of uneasiness in this voice.
Wasn't that fellow afraid of this place?
It actually chased them all the way down here!
Jun Wu Xie's expression was grave. If he wanted to save his life now, the first thing he had to do was to get rid of the Fire Dragon.
If it was under normal circumstances, not to mention a two to three thousand meter wide abyss, he could even jump over thirty thousand meters.
However, it was different now.
The abyss was covered by a gravitational field.
This gravitational field was so strong that it almost caused a half-demon Saintess like Lilia to fall. It was clear how terrifying it was.
"There must be a way to get over!"
Jun Wu Xie activated his Primordial True Eyes and looked carefully.
Soon, he saw stone pillars in the middle of the abyss, which was shrouded in fog. They stood tall from the bottom of the abyss, forming circular stone platforms that one could step on.
He counted a total of nine stone pillars, which meant that there were nine stone platforms that one could step on. There were hundreds of meters between each of them.
"Come, give me your hand, hold tight!"
He grabbed Lilia's wrist, and Lilia grabbed his wrist tightly.
Jun Wu Xie jumped up, and his body swept toward the first stone platform.
However, after jumping a hundred meters, Lilia's body started to sink violently.
That kind of power, it was as if there was an invisible hand violently pulling at her feet.
Even Jun Wu Xie's body was falling down.
He was shocked. He spread out his free hand and slapped the air, golden blood energy surging.
"Up!"
He pulled Lilia up forcefully and rushed forward a hundred meters. Their bodies started to fall again, and this time, they fell even more violently.
"Hold my neck tightly!"
Jun Wu Xie pulled forcefully, and Lilia's body was pulled into his arms.
Almost instantly, she wrapped her arms tightly around his neck and hung herself on him.
At this moment, Jun Wu Xie pressed his palms down violently.
Golden blood energy surged like a torrential flood, forcefully pulling their falling bodies up a hundred to two hundred meters and landing firmly on the stone platform.
"Are you scared?"
Jun Wu Xie looked down and couldn't help but be stunned.
Lilia was looking up at him with her pale green eyes.
Their eyes met, and he saw that her beautiful face quickly flushed red. Her eyes were shy, and she buried her head in his chest.
"I say, Saintess Lilia, why are you so shy?"
Jun Wu Xie was speechless. In such a life and death situation, she still had the mind to be shy.
Women were really incomprehensible creatures.
Lilia's heart was thumping.
Of course, she wasn't that shy. She had never been like this before.
She didn't know why, but in such intimate contact with this human man, she couldn't help but feel flustered.
"Clang!"
At this moment, a flame rushed out from the tunnel exit.
"Human brat, come back here!"
The fire dragon's body shrunk to the size of a bowl.
It instantly arrived in front of the cliff and stretched out its upper body, discovering the gravitational field and restrictive power here.
"Let's see how you can escape!"
The fog where Jun Wu Xie was standing had already dispersed.
The fire dragon saw the stone platform under his feet and immediately understood what was going on.
The restrictive power and gravitational field here made it impossible for the human to jump to the other side in one go. He could only cross the abyss through the stone platform in the middle.
Its body expanded crazily.
Its upper body stretched out and quickly approached Jun Wu Xie and Lilia.
"Hold on tight!"
Jun Wu Xie's pupils contracted. The blood energy in his body surged, and he exerted force in his legs, leaping up fiercely.
When he was about two hundred meters away, he ran out of strength and his body fell rapidly.
He slammed his palms into the void and continued to jump to the second stone platform, landing firmly on it.
At this moment, the fire dragon's head had already crossed the first stone platform and was quickly reaching for the second stone platform.
Jun Wu Xie didn't dare to stay and quickly jumped to the third stone platform.
When he landed on the third stone platform.
The fire dragon's head reached the third stone platform almost at the same time. It opened its bloody mouth and a scorching aura spread out from its throat, causing him to feel a piercing pain.
Lilia, who was in his arms, had her protective vital energy destroyed by the high temperature, and her clothes were burning.
He quickly used his blood energy to extinguish the flames, and a patch of white came into view.
He was shocked. Before the flames were completely extinguished, he quickly took out a set of his own clothes and covered her body.
"Human, why aren't you running now?"
The fire dragon's huge head looked down at him from above. Its two fiery eyes were burning with golden-red flames.
Jun Wu Xie's heart sank.
At this moment, it seemed like he was really in a desperate situation.
The fire dragon's head was in the air and had locked onto him.
Under such circumstances, as long as he had any intention of escaping, the flames in the fire dragon's mouth would instantly spurt out, burning him and Lilia into ashes!
