Chapter 1156 - 1156 Yu Huang Who Entered the Gourmet Cave
1156 Yu Huang Who Entered the Gourmet Cave
After saying that, a female staff member raised the stopwatch in her hand and said sternly, “After five seconds, the participants who still haven’t entered examination hall number two will be eliminated!”
Hearing this, all the participants immediately circulated the spiritual power in their bodies and prepared to jump into the well. The female staff shouted, “In three seconds, I will press the stopwatch. Everyone, hurry up! Three! Two! One!”
Just as she finished shouting, all the participants rushed to jump into the three deep wells.
They knew that there was a Blazing Flame Mountain in front of them, but they still jumped without hesitation.!!
Yu Huang jumped down from the well in the middle. The moment she jumped into the well, she released a spiritual energy protective shield that enveloped her body as her body fell continuously. The lower she fell, the more intensely she felt the heat wave.
This feeling was a little familiar.
Back then, in order to condense a Psychic Pearl, Yu Huang had jumped into the Purgatory Sea once. Under the Purgatory Sea, there was a sea of magma. However, the difference was that there were natural stone pillars on the surface of the Purgatory Sea for her to land on, but there was a sea of scorching magma water under the deep well.
The participants quickly stabilized themselves as they fell down.
During the process, they couldn’t help but look down, but they only saw endless darkness.
This was because when the magma was buried deep underground, one couldn’t see it with the naked eye since it had long fused with the darkness. Only when the magma burst out of the ground would it reveal a fiery red color.
They couldn’t see the location of the magma pool. Only the increasingly hot temperature reminded them that they were about to reach the end.
However, Yu Huang was different.
Yu Huang was a Purifying Spirit Master, so her psychic power could clearly sense the exact location of the Blazing Flame Mountain.
Suddenly, Yu Huang reminded loudly, “Everyone, be careful. We’re about to reach the Blazing Flame Mountain!” Her voice instantly spread throughout the entire dark underground.
Upon hearing her voice, all the participants immediately prepared themselves before they fell into the magma pool. In an instant, the high temperature enveloped them and burned their skin so severely that they felt intense pain. Even the bones buried under their flesh began to burn.
Fortunately, the tight clothes they were wearing temporarily blocked the first wave of magma for them.
It was said that the material of this tight suit was special, and the extract of Ice Crystal Marrow was used.
The tight clothes could protect the participants from being burned by the high temperature of the magma for half an hour. After half an hour, their clothes would be burned by the magma. At that time, they could only rely on their spiritual power to resist the attacks of various terrifying creatures in the magma and the high temperature.
Fortunately, the underground was pitch-black, and everyone was deep in the magma pool. Even if they were not wearing clothes, they wouldn’t see each other naked.
The moment Yu Huang fell into the magma pool, she circulated her spiritual power to its strongest state. A pair of gorgeous wings suddenly appeared from her shoulder blade. The wings helped Yu Huang maintain her balance, and her falling speed gradually slowed down.
When she fell to a suitable depth, Yu Huang sat down cross-legged and began to meditate. She tried her best to preserve her mental and physical strength as she used her spiritual power to resist the attack of the heat wave.
Before long, Yu Huang realized that the tight clothes on her body had melted.
Without the protection of the tight clothes, the magma ravaged Yu Huang’s body. They wanted to melt Yu Huang and turn her into a part of the magma pool.
Yu Huang suddenly opened her eyes and shouted in a low voice, “Xuan Yu, swallow!” Xuan Yu suddenly emerged from between her eyebrows. Then, it opened its mouth and actually swallowed magma in large mouthfuls.
The Divine Feather Phoenix was a powerful True Fire-type demon beast. How powerful was it?
It was so powerful that it could devour magma!
While the other participants were so tormented by the magma their entire bodies were in intense pain and they wished for nothing more than to forfeit immediately, Yu Huang accompanied Xuan Yu in the magma pool as Xuan Yu absorbed large mouthfuls of fire attribute energy.
After the Divine Feather Phoenix fell into the magma pool, it was like a wolf entering a sheep’s nest.
If anyone saw this scene, they would definitely be flabbergasted.
Soon, some people couldn’t hold on anymore and took the initiative to climb ashore. They put on the bathrobe that the organizer had prepared for them and quietly waited for the staff to pick them up…
…
The second round of the screening test lasted for a total of five days.
However, in less than three days, more than seven thousand participants took the initiative to forfeit. The participants who insisted on staying in the magma pool were all Beast Tamers with powerful spiritual power. Most of them were late-stage Supreme Masters and early-stage Grand Masters.
Yin Rong’s three-eyed unicorn was very afraid of high temperatures, but she gritted her teeth and endured it until the third night. When she sensed that she was about to collapse and couldn’t hold on any longer, she could only climb to the shore.
Yin Rong put on her bathrobe and had just pressed the distress button when she heard a low broadcast sound in the dark space. “Participant Yin Rong has successfully passed the second round and is ranked 2,698th.”
Yin Rong originally thought that she had been eliminated and was sitting by the shore with her head lowered in sorrow, so when she suddenly found out that she had actually passed the second round, she was so happy that she almost jumped up. Just as Yin Rong was about to leave, she heard a broadcast again. “Participant Beatrice has successfully passed the second round and is ranked 2,697th.”
Beatrice was out too?
Yin Rong stood on the pitch-black shore as she called out softly into the endless darkness, “Beatrice?”
Beatrice was stunned and asked uncertainly, “Rong Rong?”
“It’s me!” Yin Rong asked Beatrice, “Why are you out?”
Beatrice explained, “Mermans live at the bottom of the sea, so how can they withstand the torture of the magma? Lasting until now is already my limit. What about you?”
Yin Rong also said, “Unicorns are also afraid of heat.”
“Pfft!”
The two of them laughed.
They felt lucky to be able to pass the second round.
“The Divine Feather Phoenix is a natural True Fire Divine Beast. When Yu Huang is in this magma pool, she probably feels at home,” Beatrice said curiously. “I’m really curious about how long she can stay in this magma pool.”
Yin Rong thought about it and said, “She might be able to stay until the last day.”
As the two of them chatted, other participants took the initiative to forfeit, so they stopped talking.
Soon, the staff entered the Blazing Flame Mountain and picked up all the participants waiting by the shore.
Not long after the two of them left, Donor and Estelle climbed ashore.
Gradually, more and more participants took the initiative to forfeit.
On the afternoon of the fourth day, there were less than 200 participants left in the entire magma pool. At this time, almost all the people left were Grand Masters. This group of people was the main contenders for the last round of the screening test.
That included Dongshen Hanyu of the East God Palace and a few outstanding youths of the Vermillion Bird Clan. Naturally, it included Sheng Xiao as well.
