The Fortunate Demoniac Little Village Doctor-Chapter 1403 - 765: The Visitor (Part 2)

A place where their Demon Sect has been battling for so many years, yet remains unharmed, naturally has the strength of the other party. Otherwise, their Demon Sect would have long since eradicated the Death Tribe.

"Everyone, heed my orders. Join me in going down to assess the situation. Remember, no matter what happens, ensure the Flame Crystal remains intact. If the Flame Crystal gets destroyed, you should know the consequences!" The Great Elder turned his head to survey everyone present, his expression tinged with a certain gravity.

With these words, everyone’s expression showed a touch of solemnity, except for the middle-aged man who had just spoken.

Upon hearing the Great Elder’s words, he instantly protested, "If you want to go, go yourselves. I’m not going. I’d rather spend this time sleeping at home."

"This time, you don’t have a choice; before you came, the Sect Hierarch already instructed me that all your matters will henceforth be arranged by me!" Having said that, the Great Elder directly grabbed the middle-aged man’s collar and threw him towards the base of the volcano.

"Old thing, don’t let me survive, or else I’ll surely kill you!" As he felt his body swiftly plummet downwards, for a moment, the middle-aged man’s face was full of pallor and fear, and he continuously shouted up at the Great Elder.

"Regarding that matter, let’s see if you can even leave here alive!" The Great Elder let out a cold chuckle, then nodded to those around, and immediately everyone leaped towards the bottom of the volcano.

At the bottom of the molten lava, Liu Hun and Chen Feng watched this scene, their expressions involuntarily shifted slightly; neither of them expected the people from the Demon Sect to decisively jump down so swiftly.

If the Demon Sect’s people appear next, Liu Hun and Chen Feng’s attempt to seize the Flame Crystal might not be so easy.

"Young Master, if we hurry to the Flame Crystal now, given their bodily attributes, they likely cannot approach it; so we still have a chance." At this moment, Chen Feng couldn’t help but try to comfort Liu Hun. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

"Indeed, lead the way. We are definitely not their opponents, so now our only advantage is to get there first. But if I’d known these guys would come, I wouldn’t have killed the Flood Dragon earlier; I’d have left it for them to deal with. It’s truly a pity to have wasted a Flood Dragon." Liu Hun remarked with a hint of regret.

Hearing Liu Hun’s words, the Blood Phoenix perched on his shoulder showed eyes full of helplessness and frustration. Liu Hun was indirectly cursing it, yet it dared not retort.

The more they proceeded along the passage ahead, the more the atmosphere inside grew increasingly scorching, and Liu Hun and the others had no way to stop.

After all, the Demon Sect’s people were behind them; pausing now would risk being discovered by them, which would be quite unwise.

After approximately ten minutes, Chen Feng led Liu Hun to a fork in the path. Without much thought, Chen Feng headed straight along the right passage.

However, just then, Liu Hun suddenly stopped him and frowned, asking, "Are you sure about this passage?"

"I’m sure. I remember clearly from my last visit; it was this passage!" Chen Feng halted, nodding firmly to Liu Hun.

Upon hearing this, Liu Hun felt somewhat surprised, then glanced at the Blood Phoenix on his shoulder, asking, "Are you sure it’s the left passage?"

Deep inside, the Blood Phoenix grew anxious as it sensed the terrifying aura behind them draw closer and quickly urged Liu Hun, "Boss, hurry up. If we delay any longer, they might catch up. In such a narrow passage, confronting them seems impossible. Hence, now we can only quickly reach the Flame Crystal’s location and use it as leverage to escape; and I’m sure the Flame Crystal is within this passage. Although I’m not clear why, it seems the Demon Sect altered its position."

After hearing the Blood Phoenix’s words, Liu Hun hesitated momentarily before saying to Chen Feng, "Let’s go, we’ll take the left passage. If this fellow deceived me, it’ll pay for it later."

Having said this, Liu Hun proceeded into the left passage and continued forward; the atmosphere within became even more blistering, as if they were living amidst molten lava.

If Liu Hun’s body hadn’t been tempered countless times by the Xuan Fire, and Chen Feng naturally possessing a Fire Attribute body, they likely couldn’t endure the current situation.

"Young Master, the Flame Crystal is indeed here. I didn’t expect the Demon Sect to have such extraordinary means, able to relocate the Flame Crystal. If we had gone into the other passage earlier, it would’ve been troublesome now." At this moment, even Chen Feng had to acknowledge the Blood Phoenix’s intuition.

Because not far ahead lay a vast molten lava area, yet in the center stood several stone pillars, though Liu Hun didn’t know what the pillars were made of, that they hadn’t melted away. However, what stunned them now was atop a massive central pillar lay a palm-sized blood-red stone hovering in the air.

This blood-red stone was like a pebble, radiating a sinister glow all over.

"Boss, this..." After a moment, Chen Feng spoke up, wiping the sweat from his forehead, somewhat helplessly asking Liu Hun while regarding the terrifying Flame Power enveloping the stone pillar’s surroundings.

This flame wrapped around the central pillar, and if they wanted to destroy the Flame Crystal, they must pass through the flame. Yet even Chen Feng, possessing a Fire Attribute body, struggled with the heat.

Moreover, where they stood was still quite distant. If they got closer, their bodies might be melted by the Flame Power.

This risk was something Chen Feng naturally didn’t want Liu Hun to take, for Liu Hun was the Young Master of their Death Tribe. If anything happened to Liu Hun, he likely wouldn’t be able to return to account for it.

"We have no route of retreat anymore. In such a place, without exits, exiting means relying on the passage we came through. But with the Demon Sect’s people nearing, leaving at this moment is evidently impossible." Liu Hun took a deep breath, beads of sweat forming on his forehead, yet his expression carried a chilling resolve as he gritted his teeth and replied to Chen Feng.

Upon hearing Liu Hun’s words, Chen Feng cast his gaze toward the terrifying flames ahead, breathing heavily, his face still showing a hint of fear; while he didn’t want Liu Hun to take risks, it was as Liu Hun said, they had no choice now.
