Chapter 1 The Cavern

The moment Shi Feng finished speaking, all the members of Azure Blade in the cavern were stunned.

Not only Yu Luo and the others looked at Shi Feng with astonishment, but even Fan Muran and her companions, who had brought Shi Feng here, were taken aback.

The passage into the inner region of the ruin was extremely dangerous. Even if super forces entered with hundreds of their main members, it was uncertain if they could make it through. And those that did could only be described as lucky.

Originally, Fan Muran thought Shi Feng had notified the Zero Wing team active in the ruin, but she never imagined that Shi Feng intended to venture into the inner region with just four people. It was madness!

"Guild Leader Black Flame, do you know how dangerous that passage is?" Yu Luo tried her best to calm down and said to Shi Feng seriously, "Don't even mention just the four of you. Even if four hundred main members of those super forces went in right now, the chances of them making it through are less than half. If it's just the four of you entering, then please excuse us from joining."

If it weren't for the fact that Shi Feng and the others had saved Fan Muran, she probably would have exploded on the spot.

Their time was already very tight. When they heard that Zero Wing was willing to rescue the guild leader, they had risked a lot to rush all the way over, even losing dozens of members in the process.

But Shi Feng was planning to rescue her with just three people. Did he really think the Molten Ruins was his backyard, where he could come and go as he pleased?

"It's a pity that Captain Yu Luo isn't willing to go. Cola, get ready, we're going in." Shi Feng didn't take it to heart at all and directly asked Cola to lead the way.

"Yes!"

Cola was overjoyed upon hearing this and immediately walked towards the passage without saying a word. Dovesong and Sword Shadow reluctantly followed behind.

Shi Feng's actions instantly dumbfounded the Azure Blade members present.

They didn't expect Shi Feng and his group to be serious. They weren't joking with them earlier.

"Yu Luo, you've gone too far. Guild Leader Black Flame and the others are entering the inner region to save the guild leader and the others." Fan Muran looked at the somewhat angry Yu Luo and quickly said, "Moreover, Guild Leader Black Flame and the others have just arrived at the Molten Ruins and don't know much about it, let alone the passage to the inner region."

The discord between the two sides was not a good thing for either of them.

Moreover, Yu Luo wanted to support the guild leader as soon as possible, and having more people was always a good thing, especially a Tier 3 expert like Shi Feng.

With this, Shi Feng and the others would definitely not be with Yu Luo.

"I understand what you mean, but you should also know that it's impossible for them to do it with just four people. Instead of wasting time, it's better to think of other ways." Yu Luo glanced at the departing Shi Feng and the others and said disdainfully, "Moreover, I know a little about this Black Flame. Back then, relying on the fact that he was a Tier 3 class, the major super forces couldn't do anything to him, and he could even walk sideways in the level 100 neutral maps. Even Can Guangruxue is somewhat wary of him. But times have changed. Which super force doesn't have a Tier 3 class now? But they still can't do anything about the inner region passage?"

"Now that they want to try it, it's good to let them know how powerful the inner region passage is. Once they hit a wall, they will naturally know the necessity of cooperating with us. Otherwise, when we enter the more dangerous inner region, if we still have to let them lead the way, don't even mention supporting the guild leader. It would be good if we weren't dragged down by them."

She admitted to Shi Feng's Tier 3 strength, but this was the Molten Ruins, which was not comparable to the level 100 neutral maps outside.

If Shi Feng brought a large number of Zero Wing main members, that would be one thing. After all, Zero Wing had put in a lot of manpower, so it wouldn't matter if Zero Wing was the main force. But now, Shi Feng and the others were obviously planning to go over with just four people, so she would naturally not let Zero Wing be the main force.

She knew that when the guild leader and the others entered the inner region, War Blood had not yet sealed off the entire Molten Grand Canyon. Therefore, she had a lot of information about the passage and the inner corridor, so she would never let Shi Feng lead them blindly. That was just a dream.

"Alright, you guys stay here first, I'll lead the way for them." Fan Muran sighed. Although what Yu Luo said was not wrong, Shi Feng and the others were ultimately invited by her to rescue the guild leader. She couldn't let Zero Wing suffer any losses, so she followed Shi Feng towards the passage.

"This Muran is still too soft-hearted. If we don't let these four from Zero Wing run into a wall, how will they obey us later?" Yu Luo was also somewhat helpless at Fan Muran's actions. She then said to the vice-captain beside her, "Go tell those super forces around you that our Azure Blade can provide some specific information about the passage and can cooperate to enter the inner region corridor of the ruin together."

She no longer had any hope for the four from Zero Wing. Right now, the only way was to cooperate with other super forces to break in together. At that time, she could also let Shi Feng and the others know how ridiculous their rescue was.

Following Yu Luo's instructions, the two vice-captains also took action, running to the teams of other super forces to seek cooperation.

On the other side of the passage entrance, a team of hundreds of people was retreating from inside in a sorry state.

"No way! The Fire Hammer Adventurer Team didn't succeed either?"

Looking at the adventurer team that retreated, everyone became a little desperate.

The Fire Hammer Adventurer Team was currently the third-ranked adventurer team on Dragonheart Island. There were a full fourteen Tier 3 classes in the adventurer team alone. However, such a super-strong team still didn't succeed. Moreover, there were five hundred people when they went in, but now there were only three hundred left. Only eight of the fourteen Tier 3 classes remained. The losses were simply too heavy...

"Now you should know how naive you are, right?" Yu Luo smiled as she looked at Shi Feng in the distance.

However, Shi Feng's side seemed to not have seen the Fire Hammer Adventurer Team at all. They still walked straight towards the passage without any pause or stop.

As Shi Feng, his three companions, and Fan Muran stepped into the passage, the entire cavern was instantly in an uproar.

"Five people going in? Are they crazy?"

"Who are they? Didn't they see that the so strong Fire Hammer Adventurer Team just came out of there?"

"Isn't that female knight Fan Muran from Azure Blade?"

"I heard that War Blood is fully surrounding and suppressing their guild leader in the inner region. They don't want to go in to save her, do they?"

"They dare to go in with just five people. They really don't know the immensity of heaven and earth. I guess they won't even pass the first gatekeeper. It seems like Azure Blade is finished."

...

The various forces present were all discussing this, their eyes full of ridicule and mockery, which made Yu Luo's face turn livid in the distance.

Just as everyone was talking, they saw a stone giant standing a hundred yards inside the passage move.

Ancient Guardian, Elemental Creature, Primordial Species, High Lord, Level 105, HP 2,400,000,000.

The unsealing of this Ancient Guardian caused chills among the members of the various forces present.

As a Level 105 High Lord, it was already very powerful. It was very difficult for a Tier 3 MT to deal with. However, the Ancient Guardian was still a Primordial Species. Its strength was so strong that it could send a Tier 3 MT flying with one punch. Moreover, all the players' burst skills were sealed in the passage. Even a Tier 3 MT could only barely rely on their life-saving skills to withstand it for a while.

Previously, the super forces' teams didn't know how many people they had sacrificed just to block the Ancient Guardian's pursuit.

Fortunately, this Ancient Guardian only allowed people to go out and not in. Otherwise, they would have to suffer again when they came out from inside.

"I wonder if these five people can survive for twenty seconds."

"Twenty seconds? Are you kidding me? That's an Ancient Guardian. Even a Tier 3 MT who activates their life-saving skills can't withstand a few hits. I guess ten seconds at most."

"I think so too."

Before everyone could say much, the Ancient Guardian strode up to Shi Feng and the other four. Its speed was so fast that even a Tier 3 Assassin would probably be far behind.

Looking at Shi Feng and the others, the Ancient Guardian directly raised its foot and kicked over.

The Ancient Guardian was very large, a full twelve meters tall, like a tall building. A kick was like a house hitting them head-on. For Tier 3 classes who were not agility-based, they could not avoid it at all and could only take it head-on.

Boom!

As the kick was launched, the ground seemed to shake a little.

Just as everyone thought that Shi Feng and the other four would be blasted out, the next moment, as the dust dissipated, everyone was stunned. Everyone's eyes almost popped out.

Because the Ancient Guardian's kick actually stopped abruptly, as if it had kicked a wall. And Cola, who was blocking the Ancient Guardian's big foot, didn't move at all...
