C104 (2/2)
Immediately after, the green clothed man looked around quickly and smiled mysteriously: ”Little brother, I am Hong Qiang. These two are my friends Yuan Xiang and Wu Hui, we have found a very secretive tunnel at the end of Blood Flame Mountain. At the end of the tunnel, there are extremely valuable treasures, but it's too hot inside, so the three of us can't get near it.
”Little brother, after obtaining the treasures, the two of us … How about 50% each? ” After he finished speaking, the man dressed in green, named Hong Li, had a pained expression on his face.
”Oh? What treasure is this? ” Tang Huan's eyes flashed, filled with interest.
”This...” Hong Qiang hesitated for a moment before clenching his teeth, as if he had made a great decision, ”Two phoenix feathers and four phoenix stones!”
”What?” Tang Huan was shocked.
”Shh!” ”Shh!” Hong Qiang made a small gesture, ”Are you interested in this little brother?” Although it is only a middle-ranked gem, the weapons it forges are definitely the most suitable for Weapon Refiner to use out of all the weapons. Every single one of them is priceless, and the phoenix feather is even more precious than the phoenix stone.
”Of course I'm interested. Where is the passageway? Let's go.”
Tang Huan also lowered his voice, but he was still unable to conceal the excitement in his eyes at all.
”Alright, alright, we'll go right away. What's your name, little brother?”
”You can just call me Ye Ze. Brother Hong, are you Stage Four Martial Master or Stage Five Martial Master?”
”The three of us are just like you, we are all just Stage Four Martial Master!”
”...”
With Hong Li leading the way ahead, Yuan Xiang and Wu Hui following behind, Tang Huan walking in the middle, the four of them moving forward in the mountain with huge rocks covering the ground.
Looking at Hong Li's figure, the excitement on Tang Huan's face gradually faded, but what replaced it was a smile that was not a smile.
Along the way, he was very careful and no one said a word.
Unknowingly, the four of them had already traveled two to three hundred meters within the peak. The heat gradually rose, and it was now almost twice as high as at the foot of the mountain.
Hong Qiang, Yuan Xiang and Wu Hui were already sweating profusely, while Tang Huan's condition was much better. Only, fine beads of sweat had started to seep out from his forehead.
”As expected of a Weapon Refiner who has fused with the True Fire, she is even more resistant to heat than us ordinary Martial Warriors.” In front of a pile of strange, blood-red boulders, Hong Li stopped in his tracks, turned his head to look at Tang Huan, and said with some envy.
”I'm about to reach my limit too.”
Tang Huan laughed, his eyes quickly sweeping around as he said, ”Brother Hong, are we there?” This area that was filled with strange rocks had a circumference of several hundred meters. Between the rocks, there were indeed countless holes of varying sizes. However, it was unknown which passage they were talking about.
”We're here, this is the place.”
Hong Qiang was the first to enter the two-meter-tall cave. After entering for just a few meters, he stopped again and pulled out a huge stone slab from the wall that was also made of many stones. A bright red hole immediately appeared, and an even more intense heat surged out of the cave.
”Brother Ye Ze, please look!”
Hong Jin indicated towards Tang Huan.
Tang Huan could not resist the heat wave and arrived at the cave entrance. Looking inside, it was indeed a circular, arched shaped, blood-red tunnel. The surroundings were all stone, as if the tunnel was dug out from inside an enormous boulder.
”Brother Hong, that Phoenix Feather and Phoenix Stone are …”
Tang Huan turned his head to ask subconsciously. Before he could finish speaking, his line of sight was filled with two rays of pitch black light and a bright golden light, which were actually two long rods and a heavy blade carrying a powerful Strength Qi that was about to cut down on him. Behind the blade-like figure, three sinister faces could faintly be seen.
