Volume 6: The Key to the Demonic World Chapter 36: Ruthlessness Does Not Necessarily Mean Heroism
Mo Yi didn't even bother to look at it again. He simply changed the holding position of Ying Lili in his arms to a more appropriate one, lifted the cloak to gently cover her head, and with a light tap of his feet, he had passed through the waterfall in the next moment.
Behind the waterfall was a cave that looked like a door. Wei Xingying followed closely behind Mo Yi and stepped into the cave. As soon as he stepped into the cave, he felt his eyes brighten and the sunlight was dazzling.
It turns out that behind this stone wall, there is another cave, which is a lush green valley. At this moment, the sun is at its zenith, the weather is fine, and the mountain flowers are in full bloom. It looks like a paradise, which forms a sharp contrast with the gloomy and dense forest outside the stone wall. It seems like two different worlds. I really didn’t expect that there would be such a world in the cave behind the waterfall!
"What a great place!" Wei Xingying couldn't help but sigh. The climate here is mild, the grass and water are lush, it's a perfect place to live in seclusion!
A faint orchid-like fragrance hits you, refreshing your heart...
He suddenly began to doubt the legends he had heard before, about the gloomy and terrifying place, and the forest of no return. Could they be just rumors spread by outsiders?
The reason why those exiled people didn't come out again was probably because they lingered here and didn't want to come out anymore?
Was he exiled, or was he sent here to live out his days? Wei Xingying suddenly felt this absurdity, but he still felt something was wrong. The previous legends shouldn't be completely groundless, right?
Mo Yi had already started walking towards the valley. At this moment, a ball of red light suddenly shot out from the bottom of his feet. Mo Yi subconsciously took a deep breath and suddenly flew into the air, but found that the scenery around him was rapidly distorted. At this moment, he suddenly felt as if he was falling rapidly. He lowered his head and found that a huge crack had suddenly appeared under his feet, and under the crack, there seemed to be some hot red liquid rolling!
Is there volcanic lava underneath?
When this thought flooded into his mind, even someone as fearless as Mo Yi couldn't help but gasp. Sure enough, as the crack under his feet grew larger, a fiery red, rolling magma suddenly appeared before his eyes...
What was even more terrifying was that the surging magma seemed to have a strong suction force, desperately trying to suck Mo Yi into the incomparably hot red flames, forcing Mo Yi to use all his spiritual power to fight against it...
Fortunately, Mo Yi reacted in time, jumped up, hugged Gong Lili tightly in one hand, and climbed up a cracked cliff wall with the other hand.
"Is this an illusion or reality?" Wei Xingying's voice came faintly from behind him. Mo Yi turned around and found that Wei Xingying was just like him, hanging in a desperate situation on the cracked cliff. However, Wei Xingying was hanging on the other side of the cracked cliff, and the two were already several feet apart!
Just when Mo Yi was wondering whether what he saw was real or an illusion, he suddenly felt something was wrong. It turned out that the cloak used to wrap up Gong Lili had been ignited by the splashing molten sea of fire due to the previous series of violent movements. The cloak was now spreading all the way up, and the scorching flames were almost spreading to Gong Lili. Mo Yi climbed the cliff with one hand and hugged Gong Lili with the other. He was almost exhausted. He had no choice but to use the hand that was hugging Gong Lili to untie the cloak with his bare hands. The cloak was waved away, but the flames suddenly jumped up, as if they had vitality and jumped directly to Mo Yi's palm. Mo Yi felt a burning pain piercing his heart, and saw that the flames actually burned his palm and smoked, and the pain made him tremble all over.
Now I finally know that what I see is not an illusion!
Fortunately, Mo Yi was no pushover. He stepped on his toes, exerted force with one hand, and climbed up with the help of the force, barely standing on the cliff.
Before he could breathe a sigh of relief, he found that the sky suddenly turned red, like red-hot lead sheets, and countless chains as thick as arms suddenly spanned between heaven and earth.
Boom! Boom! Loud noises came from under my feet.
Sand and rocks flew, the earth shook, and suddenly, an extremely hot force gushed out from deep underground!
Mo Yi turned around and shouted to Wei Xingying, "Don't fall! This is not an illusion!"
Before he finished speaking, he flew up and grabbed the chain that spanned the sky and the earth like a nimble monkey. He hung on the bottom of the chain with one hand, dangling like a juggler. Almost at the same time that Mo Yi left the cliff, the fiery red molten magma gushing out from the ground had already engulfed the place where he was just now .
The cliff was swallowed up in an instant, and between the fiery sky and earth, only the chains across the sky and the red sea of fire purgatory below remained!
Before Mo Yi could breathe a sigh of relief, he heard Wei Xingying's cry behind him. Looking back, he saw Wei Xingying missed the chain behind him. Seeing that Wei Xingying was about to fall into the fiery purgatory below, Mo Yi frowned. Almost subconsciously, he jumped into the air and suddenly did a head-on hook, hooking the shaky chain with his toes. The whole person was hanging upside down on the chain, one hand still tightly holding Gong Lili, and the other hand quickly grabbed the collar of Wei Xingying who was falling.
Wei Xingying was a little slow when he escaped from the cliff and missed the chain. He felt his center of gravity sink and was in despair. He thought he was going to die in the sea of fire, but suddenly he felt someone lifting him up. He was slightly startled and fell on his back, only then he realized that it was Mo Yi who saved him at the critical moment.
A mixture of emotions washed over Wei Xingying. He had never had a favorable impression of Mo Yi. Putting aside the fact that he was Long Yu's uncle's rival in love, Wei Xingying had never been one to associate with someone like him. He had always considered him a cold-blooded killer, yet he had never expected him to take such a risk to save him in this critical moment.
Of course, the premise is that everyone can escape this disaster and survive.
In fact, not only Wei Xingying, but even Mo Yi himself did not expect that he would do such an impulsive thing. Everything seemed to be subconscious, yet seemed to be taken for granted.
Mo Yiru comforted himself in this way.
However, although they managed to save Wei Xingying's life, their situation seemed to be even worse now.
Originally, with Mo Yi's skills, it would not be difficult for him to climb up the chain. However, at this time, he was hanging upside down, holding Gong Lili in one hand and pulling Wei Xingying with the other, and he had to constantly dodge the flames that rushed up from below. Even if Mo Yi had extraordinary skills, he felt a little overwhelmed at this moment.
Moreover, if something suddenly happened to the chain, then the three of them would probably be buried in the sea of fire and lava.
However, Mo Yi had no other better choice at this time, and it was even more impossible for him to let go of either hand. He made up his mind and thought that at worst they would all die here together.
At this moment, an old and playful voice suddenly came from above his head: "Haha, interesting, really interesting, you are really interesting, kid, you still care about other people's lives at this time."
Mo Yi and Wei Xingying looked up at the same time, only to hear a thunderclap above their heads. The originally solid blood space suddenly cracked open, and a face that looked even older than Wei Xingying suddenly appeared in the crack.
"I wonder if this clumsy play is acceptable to you, senior?" Mo Yi's mind suddenly turned and he understood what was going on. All the changes just now were probably tricks played by this old man. Although he didn't know how he could create such a realistic effect that was almost like a real scene, but from his tone, it seemed that he was just having fun and watching the show. This made Mo Yi secretly breathe a sigh of relief and he even ridiculed the other party rudely.
"Tell me, if I asked you to let go of any one of you in your hand, you could save the other one, what would you do?" The other party ignored Mo Yi's ridicule and just continued to talk jokingly. However, what he said made Mo Yi and Wei Xingying stunned at the same time. What did this mean?
Immediately afterwards, Wei Xingying's heart darkened. At this time, Mo Yi was holding Gong Lili in his left hand and holding himself with his right hand. If he asked him to let go, he would definitely give up on himself. Although this was a matter of course, it would make people feel unhappy if it was brought to the table. Was this old man deliberately coming to laugh at him?
Wei Xingying had lived his entire life as a human being. Although he wasn't a great hero, he wasn't a coward either. How could he live in such a miserable state? He steeled his mind and said to Mo Yi, "Let go!"
Mo Yi silently glanced down at Wei Xingying, not responding, nor showing any intention of letting go. Meanwhile, the old man in the sky seemed quite interested in seeing Mo Yi struggle, and continued to fan the flames, "Well, have you thought it through? I mean what I say. If you let go of one, I'll let go of the other."
Mo Yi's mind moved, and a bold plan suddenly came to his mind.
He suddenly raised his head and sneered at the old man in the sky: "I, Mo Yi, never accept threats from anyone!"
Before he finished speaking, the desperado's true nature was fully revealed. Mo Yi retracted his toes, loosened his grip on Wei Xingying's hand, and tightly embraced Ying Lili, holding her tightly in his arms. Together with Wei Xingying, they fell straight into the endless sea of fire and lava...
