1018: C1018 The Path of Fire

C1018 The Path of Fire

"Where are we going? And where is this place?" Zhou Yan asked in confusion as he walked along the corridor and looked at his surroundings.

"This is the road to hell. At the end of this road is hell." The Flame Sovereign King walked slowly and suddenly stopped and said:

"You have to remember, this path is very dangerous, so if you can't hold on any longer, you have to retreat immediately. Do you understand?"

After Zhou Yan heard the Flame Sovereign King's words, he nodded his head and said, "Mn, I will be careful. That... Can you take me out?"

"Sure, but you have to be prepared. If you die, your soul will also be devoured by me. Do you understand what I mean?"

The Flame Sovereign King looked at Zhou Yan coldly and said.

"Okay, I understand. Don't worry. I will definitely not shrink back. Not only will I not shrink back, but I will also kill those demons."

After Zhou Yan finished speaking, he continued to walk forward.

As he walked, Zhou Yan discovered that the tomb was actually spiral in shape, and it extended all the way to the bottom of the tomb. Zhou Yan estimated that if he walked to the deepest part of the tomb, he would almost reach his destination.

However, Zhou Yan did not know what was in the deepest part of the tomb. This place was too quiet, and Zhou Yan felt as if something was staring at him from the deepest part of the tomb.

That feeling made Zhou Yan feel uncomfortable all over, but he knew that something was definitely staring at him. If he was not careful enough, he would be doomed forever.

Zhou Yan climbed the spiral staircase for nearly half an hour before finally reaching the bottommost entrance.

When Zhou Yan arrived at the entrance, he saw a huge stone door. On the surface of the stone door were densely engraved runes. These runes were all drawn with blood.

"Are you going to open this door?" the Flame Sovereign King asked.

"Of course." Zhou Yan nodded his head. Then, he took out the bronze key and inserted it into the keyhole. After a slight twist, a cracking sound could be heard, followed by a series of sounds coming from the bronze key.

After that, the stone door slowly rose up and revealed an extremely dark hole inside.

Zhou Yan saw the situation before him and said to the Flame Sovereign King, "Let's go in."

"Have you really thought it through clearly?" The Flame Sovereign King looked at Zhou Yan and said.

"I've thought it through. Hurry up and go in." Zhou Yan urged.

The Flame Sovereign King sighed, then walked into the cave. When Zhou Yan saw the Flame Sovereign King walk in, he followed him in.

Just as he entered the space inside, Zhou Yan felt a gust of cold air blowing towards him. Furthermore, the cold air was extremely bone-piercingly cold, even a little cold, causing Zhou Yan to tremble a few times.

Zhou Yan looked around and saw that there were a lot of coffins in the tomb. The lids of the coffins were all opened.

Inside the tomb, there were skeletons lying one after another. Furthermore, these skeletons were dressed in ancient armor or knight attire. This kind of armor was similar to the ancient knight attire.

The only difference was that there were no flowers on the armor. Instead, there was a faint trace of blood on the armor. This blood was red.

"It seems that the corpses in these coffins all died here." Zhou Yan guessed in his heart.

Then, he looked up at the stone wall above him and found that the surface of the stone wall was green.

Zhou Yan knew that in the outside world, these rocks would not become like this, unless they had been burnt by something before.

Zhou Yan looked at the corpses again and found that they were not rotting. Instead, they were well-preserved.

Although the skin of the corpses was somewhat tattered from the burning, one could still vaguely tell the age of the corpses.

These people should have died when they were still alive. However, why would they die here? This made Zhou Yan feel a little puzzled.

Zhou Yan walked around the tomb and found that all the stone slabs were covered with paintings, and they were all made of metal.0

There were some strange pictures drawn on them, but he did not know what they meant.

Suddenly, a painting caught Zhou Yan's attention. On the painting, a group of people were standing in the middle of a forest.

They looked up into the sky. In the sky, there was a mass of dark clouds floating. In the dark clouds, there was a red planet, and at the edge of the dark clouds, there were three red moons. In the middle of the dark clouds, there was a purple round pearl, which looked very strange.

"Could it be that red gem, the thing you are looking for?"

After the Flame Sovereign King saw the painting, he said to Zhou Yan.

"I don't know. I can't answer your question right now."

Zhou Yan shook his head. He still couldn't understand what that red gem was. Why did the Flame Sovereign King seem so excited when he mentioned the red gem?

"I need this thing." The Flame Sovereign King said as he walked to the side of a coffin. He opened the coffin, took out a box from the coffin, and handed it to Zhou Yan:

"Put this thing in."

Looking at the box, Zhou Yan opened it. Inside the box, there was a red gem that was the size of an egg. The moment he saw it, Zhou Yan felt a strong fire element permeate his entire body. This fire element was simply too pure.

"Core of Fire, why is this thing here? Could it be that this is the City of Fire?"

Zhou Yan said in surprise in his heart.

The thing in the box was the Fire Nucleus that the Flame Sovereign King had told Zhou Yan before.

Zhou Yan put the box into his backpack and said, "We can't stay here anymore. Let's hurry up and leave."

"Yes, let's go." The Flame Sovereign King nodded and led Zhou Yan towards the entrance of the cave.

When Zhou Yan and the Flame Sovereign King walked to the cave entrance, Zhou Yan looked around and found that the cave was actually filled with coffins like this. Zhou Yan couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air. Just how many people were buried here?

After they walked out of the cave, Zhou Yan let out a long sigh of relief.

He looked around and found that there was no other way out, only this cave.

The temperature inside the cave was extremely high, and it continued to roast Zhou Yan. At this time, a blue flame appeared in the Flame Tyrant's palm.

"Let's go." The Flame Sovereign King said to Zhou Yan.

Hearing the Flame Sovereign King's words, Zhou Yan nodded.

"Rumble ~" Suddenly, the entire cave shook violently, as if the mountain was about to collapse.
