Chapter: 741
Hiss!
As soon as they crossed through the exit sign, they were greeted by a heatwave. The end of the hall had a large pond, which occupied one-third of the hall.
What was really interesting is that a rock was protruding like a small island in the middle of the pond, and this rock had a huge flame burning on it.
Crackle! Crackle!
Due to the enormous flame, steam was rising around, like a hot spring in the pond. And thanks to that, the hall’s temperature was hot, while the air was humid and white because of vapour.
‘What a truly a mysterious place’
Despite being deep in the underground, it made them feel like they were in a land of lava. In the middle of the pond, the strange fire which was distracting them, further divided their concentration when a voice was resounded.
“Who dared to set their dirty foot in here?”
The voice could be heard, yet it was hard to grasp where the voice was coming from. The unknown energy from the huge flames in the middle of the pond suddenly started increasing, making the hall’s temperature rise up.
Unlike the man, who was looking for the voice, the Blood Master’s eyes were directed toward the huge flame.
“Are you the last watchman?”
“Who are you?”
The man was puzzled at the Blood Master’s words. He couldn’t tell if the opponent was a man or woman because their voice was strong. Then, the voice resounded again.
“You cheeky bastard. Your confidence has swelled enough that you are aiming for the treasure of the Imperial palace”
The voice is sharper than before. It was a voice that was being sarcastic towards the intruders. Without backing down, Blood Master suddenly opened her mouth and screamed.
“How long are you planning on hiding there and talking? Show yourself! I am not afraid of you. Huh! Did you hide because you are ugly to look at?”
She was deliberately provoking the other person. Was it a fight of Qi between them?
‘Would this provocation work? What...?’
When the man was trying to think of what was going on, he saw a black figure of a human move behind the flames.
He wasn’t sure, but it seemed like the watchman of the treasure really fell into the provocation.
Hiss!
How did that person even get into the fire which seemed like it could burn everything?
Just then, the black human being, behind the enormous flame began to slowly cross over and walk forward.
“NO WAY!”
As shocking as it was, the black figure also had flames around. As if not affected by the heat, the figure crossed it and walked forward.
Whooosh!
The body, which was covered by the flames, was none other than the incarnation of the flames itself. Among the Guardian warriors who were guarding the shrine, the two intruders had witnessed guards who could handle flames, but they were incomparable to the figure in front of them.
‘It isn’t that the body is burning....but the body itself is made of flames’
It was an unbelievable sight for humans to accept. The assistant of Blood Monster went stiff. As they kept crossing the maze, he began to turn wary about the absence of the Guardians, but now they were facing someone who was made of flames.
‘Is it even giving out human energy?’
