Chapter 827 - 816: Emergency Seclusion
Ye Zhen arrived at Tiger Mouth Gorge at almost the fastest speed possible.
After all, the five-colored light shooting into the sky was too dazzling and too attention-grabbing, and such a spectacle often heralded the emergence of a treasure.
However, upon arriving and seeing the situation at the scene, Ye Zhen was both disappointed and furrowed his brow tightly once more.
The five-colored light, capable of mixing the Five Elements and shooting into the sky, indeed indicated that there was a treasure or a secret mansion below, but the underground lava spewing together with this Spirit Light was still gushing wildly!
It’s just that the spewing force had weakened a bit, from directly spraying into mid-air to resembling a small fountain emerging from the ground, causing more five-colored light to erupt from underground, resulting in the previous spectacle.
And in terms of volume, it’s even more than before.
The bottom of the previously massive pit, over a thousand meters deep and ten thousand meters wide, was now filled with the erupting lava.
The high temperatures carried by the subsequently erupting lava caused the previously cooled lava to melt again, turning back into dark red flowing magma, emanating astonishing heat.
With this high-temperature barrier of lava, Ye Zhen estimated that in a short time, it would be impossible to search for the treasure or secret mansion below.
Even an Establishment King could not ignore the intensely high temperature of the lava; Ye Zhen estimated that only beings like his late elder brother, the Long-Armed Fire Monkey King, naturally adept at fire control cultivation, could barely explore under such conditions.
