Chapter 142

The pawn And His Deadly Task

Li Chengfeng followed behind Grand Senior Sister, hurrying along cautiously They passed through a series of coradually rearmer and he started to sweat After a while, he found hih point, looking down at a spiral, upside-down cone-shaped cave

Two paths snaked around on both sides with diagraantic array Li Chengfeng felt like he was an ant put in a giant aquarium

As he travelled down the windy path into the cave, he studied the patterns carved into the walls and wanted to touch them He had just moved his hand when Grand Senior Sister see her head, she warned coldly, “Don't touch if you want to live”

He quickly retracted his hand and studied this giant array, privately in awe How much human labour and resources were spent to create this array?

But what is this… for?

While the carving patterns varied, they were generally depicted in one direction fro doards

He looked down but all he could see was a path of orange, like an egg yolk cooking at the bottom of a wok

The air grear his were about to burn up, and that he was no longer exhaling air but flames from his nostrils!

What is this place?

Li Chengfeng was astonished to see that the ends of Grand Senior Sister's red hair were starting to curl and dry up

He blurted, “We can't carry on like this, we'll die!”

He was startled by his own voice, for it was so hoarse he did not sound like himself It felt as if a knife had been scraped across his throat

She turned around and he saw her hair curling and withering at a visible speed Her eyes were glowing a faint blue and her expression as icy as ever “If you don't walk, you'll die now!”

Li Chengfeng had no reply so he followed behind her, enduring the heatwaves

After a while, they finally arrived at the bottoined The botto lava Deep red ry waves

In front of hie stone with arrays and inscriptions carved densely into the ground These carvings concentrated towards a central point where an empty circle of diameter 2 metres was

Within this empty spot, the air above twisted as heat radiated out of the centre

Li Chnegfeng did not dare i such terrifying heat!

Grand Senior Sister looked at hiave it to him “Go insert this in the middle”

Chengfeng alht He already felt like he was about to spontaneously co laborious effort He was going to be cremated on the spot if he went any further!

But looking at her emotionless eyes, he knew that she would kill him on the spot if he refused!

If such a highly ranked figure suddenly agreed to do him a favour, she really must have had her reasons

There was no such thing as free lunch!

Although he was erous, he was still terrified!

To go or not to go?

In the face of this dileo!

I have a 10 chance of living if I go And a 0 chance of living if I don't!
