Chapter 277 – Under The Mountain Of Flames! (2/2)

When their speed increased, all they could see were black shadows.

Li Muyang completely did not need to use any strength, and was completely supported by Qiandu and the transparent light cloak.

It was an independent s.p.a.ce, unable to feel the wind, unable to feel the water, but one could still breathe.

Intrigued, Li Muyang stretched out his finger and touched the transparent light cloak.

As though his fingertip had touched a thin light film, as his fingers extended forward, the light film also expanded.

Qiandu was in deep thought, he also did not know what she was thinking about.

The ball of light was travelling at a very rapid speed, and in a short period of time they had reached the place where Li Muyang saw the stars s.h.i.+ning brightly before.

It wasn't until now that Li Muyang realised what he had seen was not a fiery star, nor a star winking its eyes.

It was a volcano.

An active volcano that was erupting huge sparks from time to time.

Because of the distance, Li Muyang had mistaken the flames and magma as tiny fiery stars.

Without coming close, Li Muyang and Qiandu could already feel the waves of heat coming straight for them.

“Without the gla.s.s mirror or essential qi protecting your body, we would have been melted in the temperature outside.” Qiandu whispered in explanation.

“What the h.e.l.l is this place here——” said Li Muyang grumbled.

Qiandu and Li Muyang sprinted down to the foot of the mountain, when they finally stopped.

Qiandu did not loosen Li Muyang's hand, because Li Muyang would lose the protection of the gla.s.s mirror.

At the foot of the mountain there was a stone tablet engraved with ancient characters.

Some words have been smoothed by the wind and sand, so it was not very clear.

“Mountain of Flames.”

Through the faint glow emitted from the gla.s.s mirror, Li Muyang was able to read the ancient lettering on the stone.

“I didn't think there is really a Mountain of flames in this world.” Li Muyang exclaimed.

In ancient fairy tales, there is also a story about a Buddhist monk's journey to the west in search of Buddhist scriptures and pa.s.sed by The Mountain of Flames. In the end the monk's oldest disciple Sun Wukong, The Monkey King, asked Gyuumao's wife, Iron Fan Princess, to borrow her palm-leaf fan and extinguished the fire of the Mountian of flames. Finally the master and disciples could smoothly pa.s.s through the area.

Of course, at that time, Li Muyang merely listened to it like it was a story. In this world, how could there be a mountain blazing with flames all day long?

He had no idea that he would encounter Mountain of Flames one day, although the fire of the Mountain of Flames was not as big and violent as that in the story.

“This place is named the lands of illusion, the most important thing is the word 'illusion'——Everything can appear here.” Qiandu explained. She carefully studied the font of the words 'Mountain of Flames', and then looked up at the majestic and spectacular sky——there was no cloud here, so there were no skies. But the giant tree, which Li Muyang thought was extremely tall, looks like a wild weed growing under trees at the foot of the mountain.

It was an existence that was extremely at risk.

Li Muyang looked at the unending summit, asking in a worried tone, “Canghai is up there?”

“I don't know.” Qiandu said. “But, we still have to go up and see——even if we search all the mountains in this illusion, we must find Canghai.”

Li Muyang, moved by the relations.h.i.+p between Qiandu and Lin Canghai, forcibly shook Qiandu's hand, saying: “I'll accompany you. If you search for the entire day, I will accompany you searching for the entire day. If you search for one year, I will accompany you searching for a year.”

“Thank you.” Qiandu looked deep into Li Muyang's eyes. “Li Muyang, do you know why I like to be with you?”

“Because I'm a good person.” Li Muyang said.

“No, because we are the same kind of people.” Qiandu stated, pointing.

As soon as Li Muyang heard these words, his heart suddenly pounded violently.

“Could it be, Qiandu is also a dragon——a dragon like me?”

Holding Li Muyang's hand, Qiandu could feel Li Muyang's abnormal heartbeat.

She chuckled lightly. “Don't be nervous, I won't hurt you.”

“——” Li Muyang thought to himself: “it's over, she does know my ident.i.ty.”

“Do I need to get rid of her?”

Such a thought crossed Li Muyang's mind for no reason at all.
