1449 White Lava Curtain Waterfall (2/2)

The path was clearly leading them deeper into the cave after the team followed Lingling's instructions, proving the validity of her speculation.

The brown crystals were no longer visible as they proceeded further. Even the Black Iron Rocks were nowhere to be seen. All that was left were Blue Rocks that resembled the palace of an emperor, illuminated by the light of the flames.

”Found it! It's here, look!” Mui Guangqing blurted out excitedly.

He pointed at the end of the path, where a white curtain of flames was falling. It looked just like a pure piece of silk cloth from afar.

They walked closer to it and discovered that the narrow tunnel was actually leading them to a bigger pool!

The pool was huge, with a diameter of over three hundred meters, with countless tunnels along the walls. It was plain that the scorching lava scattered across the cave would all end up here in the pool eventually, like streams flowing to a larger lake!

The curtain of White Lava not only sealed up the tunnel; it was like a huge dome encapsulating a hundred meter circle at the center of the pool!

The dome of White Lava seemed to be protecting something inside it.

”The White Lava won't hurt us as long as we don't touch it,” Mui Guangqing informed them.

The others were dumbfounded by the spectacular sight in the underground cave.

---

The White Lava resembled a curtain at first, but as they looked up, it was more like a waterfall covering a full circle inside the pond. The dome extended from the blue crystalline ground they were standing on to the top of the cave. The spectacular White Lava kept flowing up against gravity, but not a single spark or tongue of fire was extending from it.

Most kinds of flames were wild and restless, so it was common to have spark, bursts, and flames leaping off from areas where the density of flames was higher. Even the slightest splash of burning lava could set the air on fire, but the White Lava was surprisingly calm and self-restrained. It was quietly protecting whatever was inside it, arousing everyone's curiosity towards the mysterious treasure within it!

It was Mo Fan's first time seeing anything like that too. Little Flame Belle had already snuck out of the Contracted Space. She curiously drew closer to the fiery curtain while blinking her eyes.

Mo Fan did not let Little Flame Belle touch the White Lava Waterfall. It was obviously going to react to any intruder aggressively.

”This thing can burn even a Ruler-level creature to death. What can we do, apart from praying to it?” Dongfang Xifeng said.

”Isn't now the perfect time for someone to show us what he has? He has to contribute if he's thinking of getting a share of the action!” Mui Zhuocheng stared at Mo Fan.

Mui Guangqing glanced at Mo Fan before looking at the little Fire Spirit floating beside him. Mui Guangqing asked, ”What do you think? Can your Flame Belle enter the White Lava Waterfall?”

”I'm not sure,” Mo Fan replied.

”What do you mean you're not sure? Dongfang Linlin is about to die!” Dongfang Xifeng exclaimed.

Mo Fan glanced at Dongfang Linlin. Her other body parts were blistering now. She was beyond recognition, especially compared to her glamorous appearance from before. Even the Parthenon Temple would have no chance of saving her once the Fiery Poison reached her heart!

”Ling~”

Little Flame Belle floated in front of the curtain of White Lava. She reached her finger out to touch the White Lava. However, a strong force immediately burst out of the White Lava and landed on Little Flame Belle.

Little Flame Belle went flying and slammed heavily into the wall of Blue Rock nearby, leaving an outline of her petite figure on it.

”Ling!”

Little Flame Belle climbed out from the wall and returned to the White Lava furiously. She squeaked and grumbled at the White Lava.

”Flame Belle is a blessed creature born in flames. The White Lava isn't too hostile to her. It only knocked her flying, but it's going to burn us into ashes if we try that,” Mui Guangqing commented.

”What should we do then!?” Dongfang Xifeng said.

”Mo Fan, look over there,” Lingling pointed at a tunnel in the opening.

The tunnel had lava pouring out of it like the throat of a fire dragon. The lava was flowing out of it at a constant rate, as if it was being expelled by an enormous dragon!

”What's that?” Mo Fan asked.

”A Primitive Soul-grade Fire! I'm afraid you and Little Flame Belle will have to subdue a powerful flame nurtured in this place if you are thinking of entering the dome of White Lava. That way, the White Lava will not reject you and Little Flame Belle's presence!” Lingling stated.
