Just as her spiritual sense entered the volcano, she felt a pain in her forehead. If she continued to probe the spiritual sense, she might be burnt, but not only could Lin Cheng ignore the heat in the volcano, but also the pain. This showed how powerful Lin Cheng's spiritual sense was.

Lin Cheng smiled and said, "I was lucky enough to have a few fortuitous encounters. It's not worth mentioning."

"I also want to have such an insignificant fortuitous encounter."

Zou Qingqi smiled and shook her head. She naturally knew how rare it was to have a powerful spiritual sense. For example, if it wasn't for Lin Cheng having a powerful spiritual sense, he would have missed the Spirit Fruit underneath the volcano.

However, a powerful spiritual sense was not only used to explore treasures. When facing an enemy, a powerful spiritual sense could be used to protect one's life. It could even be used to kill a powerful enemy, and Lin Cheng could kill Huang Dongming. It definitely had an inseparable relationship with his powerful spiritual sense.

Lin Cheng shook his head with a smile. After that, he planned to pick the Red Flame Fruit.

Zou Qingqi asked, "Senior Brother Lin, do you need me to help you?"

Lin Cheng smiled and said, "Then I will have to trouble junior sister to protect me from above. I will be back soon."

"Senior Brother Lin can be at ease. As long as I am still here, I will definitely not let you be disturbed!" Zou Qingqi immediately said solemnly. With the strength of her spiritual sense, she naturally could not go down. Otherwise, before she could pluck the Spirit Fruit, she would be the first to be injured.

The only thing she could do was to help Lin Cheng guard this place, in case someone with malicious intentions suddenly appeared, or if something unexpected happened.

Lin Cheng circulated the Spirit Power and completely wrapped himself within it. There was the existence of the fire essence in the volcano. With his current Cultivation Level, it would be difficult for him to resist it, so he didn't dare to be careless.

Clenching the Great Arrow tightly, Lin Cheng leapt down and jumped down the mountain pass of the volcano.

"Puff!"

Lin Cheng fell down a distance, and the Great Arrow in his hand suddenly stabbed into the cliff of the fire cave. His falling body immediately stopped. Although the volcano was extremely hot, the Great Arrow was not affected at all. Even the temperature did not change. It was still cold all over.

Lin Cheng wasn't surprised at all. To the rare treasure left behind by Monarch of Homo Clan, the essence fire of the volcano wasn't able to affect it at all.

After a few stops, the Red Flame Fruit arrived in Lin Cheng's line of sight. At the same time, an extremely rich fragrance accompanied the rising heat waves of the volcano. When it entered his nose, his mind immediately shook. This fragrance indicated that the Red Flame Fruit had matured. He had come at the right time!

He descended once more and arrived in front of the Red Flame Fruit. Without any hesitation, he plucked the Red Flame Fruit.

Out of the seven Red Flame Fruits, Lin Cheng plucked six, leaving only one that was still somewhat immature. This was already enough for him. Although the unripe Red Flame Fruit also had a certain amount of medicinal strength, however, it was still not enough to refine the Marrow-washing Pill.

Putting the Red Flame Fruit into the Storage Bag, Lin Cheng took a deep breath and urged the Spirit Power to grab a ball of essence fire. After that, he did not stay any longer and immediately leaped up, quickly returning to the cave entrance and flying up.

"Senior Brother Lin, this flame..."

Zou Qingqi saw that Lin Cheng was holding a ball of flame in his hand and couldn't help but be startled.

Lin Cheng said, "This is the essence fire. It's very good for concocting pills."

Zou Qingqi was even more shocked when she heard this. "Senior Brother Lin, you are also an alchemist?"

"I'm just a beginner in alchemy. I can't be considered to be proficient in it." Lin Cheng smiled and did not wait for Zou Qingqi to ask again. He immediately said, "We need to leave this place as soon as possible. I did not see any living creatures below. This is a bit unusual."

"Unnormal?"

Zou Qingqi was stunned.

Lin Cheng nodded and said, "This Red Flame Fruit contains a rich Flame Essence energy, and it is full of vitality. How could such a Spirit Fruit not have a creature coveting it?"

Zou Qingqi immediately understood, "Senior Brother Lin, do you mean that there might be a creature's nest near this Spirit Fruit?"

The more strange and precious a fruit was, the more likely it would be coveted by living beings. The difference between them and humans was that these creatures were born in the wilderness. Their sense of smell towards rare and rare fruits was much more sensitive than humans, especially the Demonic Beast. Every place where rare fruits grew had the protection of living creatures.

"That's right!"

Lin Cheng nodded and said, "But I didn't see any living creatures down there."

Zou Qingqi asked, "Then could it be that this place hasn't been discovered by other living creatures yet?"

"Whether it's that living creature that left or that no living creature has discovered this place... It is best that we leave as soon as possible! This was a secret realm. If there really was a creature coveting this Red Flame Fruit... I'm afraid that is a very powerful being." Lin Cheng said, "Besides, I need to find a place to refine this essence fire."

"Alright!" Zou Qingqi immediately nodded her head.

The two of them did not stay any longer and immediately turned around to leave the mountain.

However, although the two of them were in a hurry to leave, they did not panic. So the two of them did not go back the way they came. Instead, they went down the mountain from the other side of the mountain. At the same time, they could also investigate the entire mountain.

"Hua!"

"Hua..."

After the two of them walked for less than an hour, they vaguely heard the sound of surging water coming from the front. Then, they heard a whimper like roar.

"Wuuu -"

The two of them couldn't help but shiver when they heard this sound. At the same time, they thought of the creature that should have protected the Red Flame Fruit, and they couldn't help but become vigilant.

"This is the roar of a certain creature!"

Zou Qingqi immediately said.

Lin Cheng nodded his head. This was indeed the roar of a beast. He didn't say anything but sent a voice transmission, "Junior Sister Zou, I will go and take a look."

Zou Qingqi immediately said, "Let's go together."

The two of them tried their best to restrain the fluctuations of the spiritual sense and Spirit Power. Lin Cheng even used an extremely tiny wisp of Spirit Power to wrap around the ball of essence fire and headed towards the direction of the roar.

A moment later, there was a huge protruding rock in front of the two of them. The sound of the surging water was getting clearer and clearer, and there were even some faint sounds mixed within.

"Huff ~"

"Huff ~ ~"

Lin Cheng and the other man became more and more vigilant. They both realized that this was the sound of a living creature breathing. A living creature that could make such a huge sound must have an enormous body.

The two of them quietly approached each other. Then, their eyes moved past the huge rock and looked in the direction of the sound. In the next moment, their expressions changed slightly.

In their line of sight, there was a small lake about one to two thousand meters away from them. Looking from afar, there was a continuous stream of water flowing out from the center of the lake.

However, the two of them only glanced at the lake. Their gazes were attracted by a creature by the lake.

This was a huge creature!

Looking from afar, there was an extremely huge creature by the lake.

This creature was entirely greenish-black, and its body was covered in dense scales. Its four legs were extremely thick, and it looked like four thick tree trunks. Behind this creature was a tail that was not too long.

What was even more shocking was its body. It was simply like a small mountain, and it was extremely shocking.

This creature also had an extremely large head. At this moment, it was standing by the lake. It opened its mouth and drank a large mouthful of water. When it opened its mouth and inhaled, it was as if seawater was pouring in. A huge amount of water flowed into its mouth, including countless struggling fish and prawns. They all entered its mouth.

Even the water surface of the lake started to drop at a visible rate, but it would soon be replenished by the bubbling water.

Lin Cheng and Zou Qingqi looked at each other and saw the shock in each other's eyes.

The size of this creature was really too big!2

It was obvious that the sound of water splashing was the sound of this creature drinking water.

What shocked the two of them the most was that the Spirit Power on this creature's body was extremely powerful. The two of them didn't release their spiritual sense to investigate. Even from afar, they could still feel the intense fluctuations of the Spirit Power.

In addition to its incomparably huge body, it was imaginable how terrifying this Demonic Beast was.

The two of them tried their best not to make any sound. They only used their eyes to communicate. After carefully observing for a while, they discovered that the Demonic Beast was no longer drinking water. The two of them immediately retracted their spiritual sense and Spirit Power and quietly retreated.

This was a terrifying Demonic Beast. The two of them naturally wouldn't be foolish enough to disturb it. Instead, they used their fastest speed to return the way they came, and then left from the side where they came from.

After that, Lin Cheng and the other man flew away quickly. At this moment, they understood that it was very likely that it was the Demonic Beast that protected the Red Flame Fruit.

Lin Cheng had taken away most of the Red Flame Fruit. Once the Demonic Beast was discovered, it would definitely go crazy.

"Wuuu..."

Suddenly, a loud roar came from afar. That roar was filled with anger, and it echoed on the empty beach.

Lin Cheng and the other man looked at each other. They immediately knew that it must be because the Demonic Beast had discovered that the Spirit Fruit it was guarding had been stolen, and it had become angry.

"Boom!"

Immediately after, another loud sound was heard. Then, the two of them saw a fiery red magma spurting into the sky from the mountain peak. At the same time, it was accompanied by the surging Spirit Power.

The two of them couldn't help but shiver. The surging Spirit Power was extremely shocking. Even from far away, they could feel its astonishing might. It could be seen how terrifying the Demonic Beast was. In its fury, it had actually caused the volcano to erupt!

They didn't dare to stay any longer. They urged the Spirit Power to fly across the sky and shoot into the distance.
