Li Rui was stunned; he never expected such a maneuver.
Moreover, it seemed he had underestimated the situation. Ruo Xin appeared to navigate through the sea of flames with ease, her adaptability putting Li Rui to shame!
Li Rui stared blankly at Ruo Xin, a feeling he had experienced before suddenly washed over him, making this moment feel particularly blissful! He wished time could stop right there, not wanting it to move forward.
"What are you standing there for? Hurry up..."
Before Ruo Xin could finish, Li Rui turned and pulled her into his embrace, charging forward into the flow of fire. At that moment, the latter was taken aback; the change happened too quickly! She was still in his arms!
Li Rui unleashed "Second Step into the Void, Golden Rooster Stands," its power far exceeding what he had used before. Under the cover of azure flames, it was as impenetrable as an iron wall; no attack seemed effective against it.
"Hey! It seems we made the right bet."
Sure enough, as they entered the Fire Sea Flow cave, it felt a bit hot at first! After all, this fiery water was no joke. Strangely enough, as they continued moving, the temperature around them began to drop.
Suddenly! It seemed something was chasing them from behind, startling them; they had never anticipated such a turn of events.
"Speed up!" Li Rui shouted desperately! In that moment, he had to use all the Source Qi in his body to reach maximum speed!
However, the fireballs behind them were eerily agile, weaving through the flames with ease and encountering no resistance at all, which left Li Rui extremely frustrated.
"Transfer your True Qi to me; I’m going all out." At that moment, Li Rui noticed a glimmer ahead and said to Ruo Xin.
The latter understood the situation perfectly. She placed her hands on Li Rui's chest, and a warm current flowed directly into him. However, True Qi and Source Qi still differed significantly! Moreover, Li Rui didn't want their energies to mix, and he needed...
He found himself in a dilemma, not having thought too much about it.
"Let it be mixed! Just charge in."
In the realm that Li Rui believed in, he always thought that Ruo Xin was using True Qi, but the latter had never told him that it was actually Vital Energy.
At first, the latter had been rejecting these gases, which naturally slowed down the speed significantly.
When the fireball was half a meter away from him, Li Rui could no longer care about anything else. With a whoosh, he opened all his Meridians, pushed off hard with his feet, and accelerated.
However, he did not consider that it might be too late; this acceleration was merely a slight increase in speed. At this moment, Li Rui was truly frustrated.
Suddenly, it seemed that Li Rui thought of something. He slowed down his speed. Ruo Xin saw the enormous fireball gradually approaching her from behind. It would be a lie to say she wasn't afraid, but she still chose to trust Li Rui.
"I believe in you. Tell me what to do quickly."
"Let's take a gamble as husband and wife!" Li Rui shook his head and said.
Ruo Xin nodded and then closed her eyes. Li Rui gathered all his Source Qi at the position of the Wind Spirit Acupoint beneath his feet.
"Wind Extreme Step!" Li Rui shouted loudly!
Using the wind speed generated by his movement, he unleashed the reverse technique of Wind Extreme Finger with all his Source Qi! In an instant, a gust of wind shot out from beneath his feet, and his speed exploded; the scene was truly...
Li Rui thought through this situation very thoroughly. Suddenly succeeding brought him great joy; he had never considered such an operation before.
The Red Sphere seemed to have consciousness. Seeing Li Rui's sudden burst of speed, it froze in place, wanting to catch up but realizing it had been left far behind. It was truly...
"It seems we are really lucky!" Ruo Xin said calmly.
Li Rui nodded slightly. Given the situation just now, they were only a few moments away from an awkward scenario; fortunately, he had succeeded.
"That seems to be a floor over there; let's go take a look!" Li Rui said repeatedly.
He then grabbed Ruo Xin's hand and dashed forward!
In just a few breaths, they reached their destination. It seemed there were no flames here, but that was too eerie! The temperature of the surroundings was similar to above, and there was not a hint of light. The floor was scorching hot; if it weren't for Li Rui's careful consideration, their feet would have been in trouble by now.
"Listen!" Ruo Xin made a "shh" gesture before speaking.
Li Rui frowned repeatedly; it seemed there was some sort of vent nearby, with gusts of wind howling past, yet they couldn't see any clues.
As they searched for the source of the wind, it seemed more likely to be coming from the ground! Li Rui felt a bit bold at that moment. Ruo Xin wanted to stop him but was a moment too late!
He punched straight down onto the ground. The sound of "bang bang bang" echoed out, and it turned out that this stone was not just an ordinary stone! With the force of that punch, something seemed to rebound, startling Li Rui; he had never expected such a reaction.
It truly was...
"This stone seems to be Magma Stone," Li Rui said involuntarily.
However, Ruo Xin shook her head, rejecting Li Rui's idea.
Magma Stone didn't have this kind of toughness; rather, this stone should be a protective layer wrapped around the Magma Stone, meaning there was Magma underneath.
But the problem arose: if it was Magma, why was there a sound of ventilation coming from below?
Li Rui's mind couldn't process it instantly; he felt somewhat confused and had no idea what the current situation was...
"Wait, it seems like something is moving down there. Can you hear it?"
Li Rui couldn't help but lean his ear close to the ground. A "crackling" sound echoed, seemingly getting closer to him. Strangely, the sound varied in volume, and the Surroundings felt somewhat...
Suddenly! The temperature dropped, and that previously intense heat sensation completely vanished.
What on earth was happening? Li Rui was bewildered and had never considered such a scenario.
"Bang!" The sound rang in Li Rui's ears, seemingly coming from the ground.
"Not good!" Li Rui immediately grabbed Ruo Xin's hand and dashed upward. At that moment, a ten-foot-tall Fire Man appeared right in front of him. That wasn't all; even more shocking was that the Fire Man's eyes were blue, resembling ice crystals, leaving the latter somewhat dazed.
"What is that thing?" Ruo Xin trembled slightly. The direction of those eyes was not fixed on Li Rui, but rather on the latter, causing her to feel a surge of fear.
