Chapter 2387 Each Goes Their Own Secret Realm
Another supervisor asked, "Why does the heat generated by the heart fire always go there?"
“You’re new here, you don’t understand,” the old overseer said. “Our Mother Goddess had a grudge against these old bastards before. After destroying Changfeng Valley, she captured them and made them suffer eternal torture by the earth’s fire!”
In other words, Mother Earth roasts them whenever she feels like it, causing them unbearable pain.
"What grudge or grudge?"
"I don't know, it happened a long time ago!" The old overseer had only heard about it; he wasn't old enough to know everything. "I heard that some old thing tried to escape, but was directly melted by the Mother Goddess."
Aunt Zhu threw another basket of mystic crystal ore into the lava pool and said to He Lingchuan:
We need to find a way to leave.
We can't linger here too long.
The tiger demon and other demon soldiers have left; only two overseers and a few dozen laborers remain.
He Lingchuan was also pondering this matter and was about to reply when the ground suddenly shook!
The cliff, shaped like a tongue, stretched directly above the lava pool. The impact caused its edges to collapse instantly. Several human slaves were standing there; He Lingchuan had barely turned his head when they were gone.
The entire cliff was shaken and tilted, causing the heavy truck to lurch forward.
The laborers were stunned for a moment, then there was a great uproar. They all dropped what they were doing and rushed toward the entrance.
Run for your lives! Everyone run for your lives!
If you're even a second later, there'll be molten lava right below!
Immortal Mingke whispered, "A good opportunity, let's go."
The four followed the crowd, dodging oncoming trucks, and ran towards the exit.
Good luck! This must be some powerful attack from the Ling Mountain immortals who are attacking Yujing City, and it just happened to hit this area.
At this moment, the old foreman rushed to the vicinity and was about to shout when Ling Jinbao kicked the large cart next to him. The cart immediately overturned, and its weight of tens of thousands of kilograms fell on the old foreman.
He who does not seek revenge is not a gentleman.
His kick was incredibly fast, and in the midst of the chaos, all the demons were busy escaping for their lives, so they didn't have time to even glance at them.
The old foreman was run over by the cart and rolled into the lava. The whip fell to the side of He Lingchuan, who picked it up without thinking.
In no time, the four of them, mixed among the laborers, left the cave and continued towards Duzhi Mountain.
"To get to Duzhi Mountain, you must pass through the Changfeng Valley gate." Aunt Zhu knew He Lingchuan's temperament. "Should we take a look while we're at it?"
Ling Jinbao chimed in, "Let's go. Aren't the people from Changfeng Valley being held there? Perhaps we can find some more clues."
To be honest, they weren't really sure about going to Duzhishan just because of the beautiful lotus flowers in the wind and dew.
Immortal Mingke also said, "Judging from what the foreman said just now, the heat from the earth fire is always transported to Changfeng Valley at a fixed point. Only when someone is specifically assigned to activate the mechanism will those people be tortured. But now that the war is urgent, the Earth Mother probably can't take care of this matter and won't send anyone over so quickly."
He Lingchuan nodded: "They can't afford to, but we can go."
This time, they didn't encounter any other unexpected problems, except that the road was difficult to travel, with frequent ups and downs and many twists and turns. There were too many dead ends in Yujing City; for example, a good road directly in front of them was cut in two by a deep ravine.
Aunt Zhu asked him in a low voice, "How's our own secret realm doing?"
"Mother Earth has already charged in." He Lingchuan breathed a sigh of relief. "Hopefully, she can hold out a little longer and buy us more time."
When the Earth Mother attacked the Panlong Secret Realm, he came to raid her lair; neither side had good intentions.
……
Seeing that his subordinates had successfully passed through the secret realm and returned to report, the stone man commanded the Bear King to jump into the pool as well.
The pool didn't look deep, but when the demons rushed in, everything went black, and then they found themselves in a completely different world.
They emerged from the dark room again, but there was no water, not a drop, it was completely dry.
Furthermore, this secret chamber remained intact, still hidden deep underground, so after the demon army emerged from here, they still had to climb up to the surface along the long passage.
The monsters tried using earth-遁术 (earth-遁术 is a type of magic that allows one to escape into the ground), but it didn't work.
Escape is prohibited here.
The host of the secret realm has the right to set some basic rules. Since the use of escape techniques is not allowed here, the demon army had better obediently take the passage, after all, there is a layer of rock and soil more than ten feet above their heads.
When this passage was first built, no one expected that an army would pass through it, so it is actually not wide, only wide enough for three or four people to walk side by side, and only eight feet high. Some large monsters have difficulty passing through and have to shrink their size.
Mother Earth wasn't stupid; this terrain was perfect for an ambush, so she casually tossed two pebbles to the front of the group and shouted:
"big!"
The pebble was originally only the size of a lychee, but once it landed, it transformed into a large stone ball with a diameter of seven feet. Mother Earth pointed forward, and the stone ball rolled forward with a rumble along the passage.
If there are traps lying in ambush along the way, they will wade through them first.
Furthermore, the stone spheres grew larger and larger, eventually reaching a diameter of two zhang (approximately 6.6 meters), effectively expanding the passageway. Was the Earth Mother not afraid of causing a collapse here, or her demon soldiers being suffocated underground?
So the Earth Mother released two more guardian spirits, sending them to charge behind the stone sphere, with the army following closely behind. They followed the Earth Mother as she devoured the ruins, fully aware of their mission, and charged forward with their heads down.
However, the guardian spirit did not encounter any substantial attacks and moved quite smoothly, but the demon army following behind the guardian spirit caused a commotion.
First, several thick-skinned wild boar demons suddenly stopped and stood still.
They were the vanguard, their bodies encased in a thick layer of mud, like golden bells, capable of shielding them from swords and spears. But their sudden stop, coupled with the narrow passage, caused the monsters behind them to bump into their rear, unable to resist complaining:
"Why did it stop suddenly?"
Why didn't you say anything when you were going to stop?
The pig demons shook their heads, one of them suddenly turned to bite the ear of another, while the others struggled to turn around and charged at the demon horde with their heads down!
The monsters were terrified, dodging and shouting angrily, "Are you all crazy?"
But the place was too cramped, and several monsters had nowhere to hide, being trampled by the pig demon. Their small eyes were bloodshot, and they lowered their heads, pointing their tusks at the monsters, goring anyone they saw!
Not only were they impervious to swords and spears, but they were also incredibly strong, running like bulldozers; otherwise, they wouldn't have been placed in the first rank. This defection threw the demon army in chaos in the rear ranks.
Furthermore, this madness seems to be contagious. It's not just the pig demon that's affected; more and more monsters in the group are suddenly turning against each other and attacking their companions for no reason.
The monsters of Jade Capital City were naturally irritable and undisciplined, with grudges and even animosity between them. They were usually suppressed by the Earth Mother and dared not make a sound. But for some reason, they suddenly became angry and went straight for the one they disliked the most.
The demon army was thrown into chaos and blocked the passage, causing the demons behind to stop in their tracks.
