"boom!"
Just then, with a huge tremor, the talismanic light in the entire cave suddenly shone brightly, causing Shi An to squint his eyes.
After a while, when he gradually adjusted and opened his eyes again, he found himself no longer in the cave hall, but in another space.
The area was surrounded by a scorching sea of fire, with endless flames and lava churning around it.
"This is... spatial teleportation?"
Shi An's eyes narrowed slightly as he quickly looked around, trying to figure out the current situation.
He was standing on an ancient altar, which was engraved with intricate runes that echoed those in the cave earlier.
The only pity is that the altar is broken and can no longer be used.
"This is... a spatial teleportation array?"
Suddenly, Yunxi's voice rang out beside her, tinged with disbelief. She looked around, her beautiful eyes filled with both surprise and curiosity.
"Master, where are we?"
At the same time, Jin Huang's slightly uneasy voice also rang out.
Clearly, they had also been teleported here.
Shi An did not answer Jin Huang's question because he did not know where he was either.
Shi An scanned the area, trying to find some clues, but unfortunately, apart from the rolling lava, the only place to stand was the ancient altar beneath his feet.
"It seems that picking that sacred medicine triggered an ancient mechanism, which teleported us to another unknown space."
Shi An said in a deep voice, his eyes revealing seriousness and contemplation.
Seeing this, Yunxi bit her lip slightly, clearly startled by the sudden turn of events. However, she quickly calmed down, gently wiping the beads of sweat on her forehead caused by the heat, and said softly, "This place is too hot to stay here any longer. We need to find an exit as soon as possible."
"Yes, Master, it's so hot here. If we stay here any longer, we might just turn into nothingness!"
Upon hearing this, Jin Huang, who was looking around, immediately echoed, his eyes flashing with unease.
Upon hearing this, Shi An turned to look at Jin Huang and Yun Xi and found that they were in very bad condition, as if they were enduring burning pain with every breath.
"Zhurong!"
Seeing this, Shi An did not hesitate any longer and immediately summoned Zhu Rong, who absorbed the anger that was approaching the two people, easing their anger considerably.
"Phew~"
Feeling the heat subside, Yunxi and Jinhuang both breathed a sigh of relief, their faces showing gratitude.
"Thanks!"
Yunxi thanked him softly. Although her face was still pale, it was much better than before.
However, Shi An simply shook his head slightly, his expression still grave: "Don't rush to thank me. We need to find a way out of here as soon as possible. The environment here is too harsh for you, and even I might get into trouble if we stay here for too long."
Upon hearing this, Yunxi and Jinhuang both straightened up and began to carefully observe their surroundings.
All around, flames churned and lava surged like raging waves, and within that endless inferno, some ancient and powerful force seemed to be hidden.
"Master, look over there!"
After a long while, Jin Huang suddenly pointed to a lava pool not far away and shouted.
Upon hearing the sound, Shi An immediately looked in the direction Jin Huang pointed. He saw an ancient stone tablet engulfed in flames at the edge of the lava pool. The tablet was covered with indistinct runes, seemingly telling a story from a distant past.
"Let's go take a look."
As Shi An spoke, he took the lead and walked towards the stone tablet.
Seeing this, Yunxi and Jinhuang followed closely behind, carefully avoiding the surrounding flames.
Soon, the two people and the beast crossed the vast sea of fire and arrived at the stone tablet.
As they approached, the runes on the ancient stone tablet seemed to be activated, gradually becoming clearer and emitting a faint glow that temporarily suppressed the surrounding flames.
Upon seeing this, Shi An couldn't help but slowly reach out, using divine light to protect himself, and gently touch the stone tablet.
"boom!"
Instantly, a stream of information flooded into his mind.
"This is... a record of an ancient training ground?"
It took Shi An quite a while to understand the contents, but it was precisely because he understood that he was somewhat shocked.
This place is not a random spatial teleportation, but a trial space left behind by an ancient powerful being, designed specifically to test those who come after.
Furthermore, that ancient powerhouse was from the Flame Python clan, meaning that they not only destroyed them but also accidentally trespassed on their ancestral land.
"this·······"
When Shi An informed Yun Xi and Jin Huang of the information he had obtained, a strange light flashed in the eyes of the two people and the beast.
What kind of behavior is this? Not only did they forcibly enter the sacred ground of the Flame Serpent Clan, but they also conveniently eliminated their trial guardian? This...
Thinking about it, the two people and the beast couldn't help but shake their heads, and then looked at the stone tablet again.
"Since things have come to this, we have no choice but to try this trial."
Shi An spoke calmly, then turned to Yun Xi and said, "You and Jin Huang wait here. I'm going to test the intensity of this trial."
After saying that, without waiting for Yunxi's reply, he leaped into the boundless sea of fire.
Clearly, the trial takes place in this sea of fire.
Seeing Shi An leap into the sea of fire so easily, Yun Xi and Jin Huang exchanged a glance, feeling uneasy, but they also knew that at this moment, the only way to go was to trust Shi An.
After a moment of silence, Yunxi said softly, "Trust him!"
"Um!"
Jin Huang could only nod in agreement and began to pray for Shi An.
At the same time, in the sea of fire, as soon as Shi An entered the fire, he felt the temperature around him suddenly rise, and the flames were like knives, cutting into his protective divine light.
Seeing this, Shi An dared not be careless and immediately activated the power of Zhu Rong Cave Heaven.
"boom!"
A powerful surge of flames suddenly erupted from his body. It was the power of Zhu Rong Cave Heaven being pushed to its limit, forming a special flame shield that absorbed the surrounding flames and made them his own.
With the help of Zhu Rong's abilities, his figure moved through the sea of fire like a fish, showing no fear of the terrifying heat that could incinerate everything. His eyes were firm as he searched for the entrance to the trial, following the instructions on the stone tablet.
After an unknown amount of time, Shi An ventured deep into the sea of fire and finally discovered a portal hidden by a vortex of flames—the entrance to the trial.
Without hesitation, Shi An flashed into the vortex of flames.
"boom!"
The moment he stepped through the door, a powerful pressure suddenly descended, as if a mountain was pressing down on his shoulders, trying to crush him.
But Shi An's will was incredibly strong. With the divine light surging within him, he actually withstood the pressure and stood firmly within the trial space.
Inside the trial space, everything was crimson, with rolling flames and floating fire runes all around, and an ancient and solemn aura permeated the air.
Shi An looked around and found that this place was completely different from the sea of fire outside. The flames here seemed to contain some kind of power of rules, and were purer and more powerful.
