"Young master, it's better if we go in front." An unknown person walked out.
Hua Ruge always thought that this was a strong character, but he didn't say anything along the way.
He and the Array Demon walked in front, and the group gradually neared the corner. Hua Ruge and Su Nianxia were protected at the back, and they followed along.
As they walked past the corner, everyone was stunned. There were no shrines or statues, only a sea of fire. There was no path ahead of them, just lava.
"How could this be?" The formation demon's face was filled with surprise. He was one hundred percent sure that this door was the Gate of Life.
"Not good, there's a trick to it!"
The cloaked man suddenly spoke up.
"Aooo!"
At this moment, a fiery red beast shot out from the bottom of the magma. Its entire body was covered in flames. This huge beast looked like a Qilin, but it was bigger than a qilin. It also looked a lot more ferocious.
Hua Ruge felt that it was familiar, but he couldn't recall where he had seen it before.
Before anyone could react, the gigantic beast pounced on them. Even though Hua Ruge was the furthest away, he could still feel the heat.
The two people in front were the black-clothed master and the Array Devil.
Both of them were Battle Master, so the two of them could only use their palms to meet the huge beast in a hurry. However, the reason the profound beasts were hard to deal with was due to their extremely strong explosive strength.
As the gigantic beast pounced towards them, it opened its mouth and spat out a blue fireball straight at the two of them. Behind the two of them was Tuoba Rui, so they could not dodge, and could only endure it.
Tuoba Rui was already prepared to fight against the gigantic beast, but he had no choice now.
He pushed out his palm, and a huge palm of energy condensed in the air and shot towards the fireball.
The fireball's energy was canceled out. At this time, the giant beast landed on the ground as well. It raised its flaming giant palm, instantly breaking through the duo's defenses and striking them down.
The clothes on their upper bodies were instantly burnt, and a large portion of their skin was burnt off. Although they did not fall down, they still retreated continuously.
Just then, Jun Tianxia's techniques were already prepared, the Imperial Jade Seal was thrown out with a flip of his hand, smashing towards the huge beast with a majestic aura.
Sensing that it was in danger, the gigantic beast bent its body and charged towards the Imperial Jade Seal.
"Bam!"
"Aooo!"
After an explosion, the Imperial Jade Seal was sent flying backwards. The huge beast let out a roar that sounded as if it was filled with both pain and excitement as it continued to attack the crowd.
Jun Tianxia took back the Imperial Jade Seal, and squinted his eyes in shock, saying: "This is a mutated Holy Beast, don't keep fighting, scram!"
"I'll be the back. You can leave." As Tuoba Rui spoke, he flicked his sleeves and four short swords pierced towards the gigantic beast.
"You can't deal with it alone." Jun Tianxia said as he turned his head to notify Hua Ruge: "Bring them with you and quickly leave. We will meet from the back."
The gigantic beast was even more ferocious and fast than they had imagined, not giving Hua Ruge time to think.
She called Jun Tianxia and his men to help the two injured men. She dragged Su Nianxia away, but she didn't forget to say something before she left, "Xiao Jin, help us out."
"Yes, Master." Xiao Jin flew back and quickly grew larger in the passage. He used his dragon claw to slap down on the huge beast.
Although Su Nianxia heard Hua Ruge's words and walked out, he asked worriedly, "Big Sister Ru Ge, will anything happen to them?"
"The Monarch said that it was a mutated Saint Beast. Although it has mutated, it is still a Saint Beast. With Xiao Jin and the two of them here, there won't be a problem. Let's go." Hua Ruge said.
Inside, Tuoba Rui was controlling the four short swords to restrict the huge beast's movements. Jun Tianxia also put away the seal and attacked the beast from a close distance with the long sword in his hand.
The golden dragon's attack was simple and brutal, as it used its claws to attack.
"Aooo!"
Not long after exiting the passageway, they heard the painful howls of the huge beasts.
Hua Ruge's heart was finally at ease. She walked out first and took out two healing pellets for the two injured people to eat, but they were ambushed by huge beasts and their injuries were severe, so they might not be able to recover in a short period of time.
"Uncle, isn't this the Gate of Life? How did we meet that monster?" Su Nianxia chased after the cloaked man and asked.
"It's true that this is the Gate of Life, but the person who set up the formation used trickery on it." The cloaked man said with a gloomy voice.
Hua Ruge suddenly remembered something, and turned to look at the beast engraved on the Life Gate. He realised that this beast looked exactly like the beast inside, no wonder he felt that it was familiar.
But what did it mean to carve a trap on the door?
Wasn't this clearly playing with them?
After a while, Tuoba Rui and Jun Tianxia came out. They were still the same as before they went in, untouched by their clothes and it didn't seem like they had experienced a big battle.
Xiao Jin obediently lied on Tuoba Rui's shoulder, he looked like he was fine.
Hua Ruge walked up and asked: "Are you alright?"
"It's fine, that beast was beaten back by us." Tuoba Rui held her hand and asked: "How are they?"
"His injuries are not light. Although his body is fine, we can't go on any further. It's too dangerous here." Hua Ruge said.
Tuoba Rui nodded his head, and said to the two of them: "This place is dangerous, the two Junior Masters should return through the Space Gate."
He spoke kindly to his own people.
"No, Young Lord, this place is too dangerous. We can't let you stay here alone." The array demon said.
Tuoba Rui said flatly: "I will never change my decision. You guys find a chance and go back."
The two of them knew that staying behind might drag them down, so they both let out a long sigh and stood up to leave.
It's hard to get in here, but it's easy to get out.
Hua Ruge sighed, pointed to the door everyone just came out from, and said: "Everyone look at that monster."
The few of them turned around, and when they saw the monster, their faces turned ugly.
"Are you kidding us?" Su Nianxia said angrily.
The trap was clearly not a reminder, but a mockery.
Because if you don't enter, you won't know that there are monsters inside.
It would be strange if those who had suffered heavy losses and survived were to see this painting again, spitting out blood in anger.
"This is a powerful character. He calculated that those who can pass through the first few stages must know some formations and mystical arts. That's why he set up a trap at the Gate of Life. Truly cunning." Hua Ruge analyzed.
Tuoba Rui had injured two of his subordinates, and his expression was naturally unfriendly.
"Next, we have to be even more careful." Jun Tianxia said, if this continued, they would be at a huge disadvantage.2
Hua Ruge nodded.
Su Nianxia pointed to the other doors and said: "Look, the diagrams on each door are different, is the mysterious mechanism behind these paintings?"
