Volume 19 Chapter 240 Heart Beast

After saying goodbye to the obvious overzealous undead, Sulun finally took me down the hillside in a dizzy manner, and then a huge canyon appeared in front of us.

We are located at the top of the cliff on both sides of the canyon. The cliff opposite is less than thirty meters away from us. Even if we don’t have to fly, I can jump over this width as long as there is a run-up. However, just when I was planning to take Sulun over, he said: "Under normal circumstances, we should have gone around the mountain from there and walked in from the opening of the canyon. However, because you have the ability to fly, I chose this road. We don’t have to find the entrance to the canyon now, just go down from here to the entrance to the altar."

I stretched my head and looked at the bottom of the canyon, but found that there was nothing black below. In fact, this canyon was not a canyon between two peaks, but a large crack located on the ground. We are now at the foot of the mountain, but the crack is even deeper, so that we can't see anything from the top down.

"Be careful not to move around." After I said to Sulun, I lifted him up and jumped down from the edge of the canyon. Originally, if I were alone, I might have chosen to jump down layer by layer on the protruding rocks on the cliff, but Sulun's attributes were not enough to withstand such an impact, and it was not convenient for me to do large-scale movements with me, so I had to grab him and spread his wings and float down.

I originally thought that the speed of floating down with my wings would not be much slower, but I didn't expect that there was a strong hot air flow in the canyon blowing up. As a result, not only did we not get faster, but we almost stopped in the same place. In this case, I finally lowered my wings and only opened them a little bit before the state improved. I estimated that 80% of the magma below was directly exposed to the outside, so the temperature below was very high. After being heated, the air expanded and rose, so a strong upward air flow was formed.

I finally landed at the bottom of the valley and put Su Lun down before I sighed: "The environment here is really strange. After running so many canyons, this is the first time I have encountered a situation where I can't even fall even if I jumped off a cliff!"

Su Lun smiled and said, "Actually, this is a special situation here, and there are actually not many canyons here."

I nodded and asked, "Where are you talking about the altar? Didn't you arrive just after you say it?"

Su Lun pointed to the front and said, "You just glided for a distance when you descended, so you were a little bit crooked. The entrance of the hole is behind the turn there, just pass by."

Following Sulun's guidance, we began to move towards the corner over the valley. There might have been an underground river at the bottom of the valley before. I felt that my feet were covered with pebbles, and some of the large rocks I occasionally saw were all without any edges and were obviously washed out by water.

Walking along the bottom of the valley for more than fifty meters was the corner. After turning around, we immediately saw the huge entrance to the cave. However, the entrance to the cave did not seem natural, at least it had been processed by someone, because the entrance to the cave not only had a gate, but also had two sculptures of monsters on both sides.

The appearance of these two monsters is a rather strange type even among monsters. If it weren't for the fact that they were both standing on the stone base, they might have been regarded as natural-formed strange rocks instead of monster sculptures, because these two things do not look like earth creatures, and even the monster fish at the bottom of the sea don't look so strange.

"What is this?" I asked Sulun when I looked at the two sculptures.

"Oh, you said this. This is a heart beast."

"Star beast? Which star?"

"Heart of the heart."

"Heart Beast? What a strange name."

Sulun explained: "According to the legend of this witch god, the heart beast is actually a monster without a fixed form. The shape you see them depends on your own heart. Mental health. People who are full of beautiful hope will see all kinds of cute or beautiful images when they see them. If people with dark mentality see them, they will see gloomy and terrifying shapes. In short, their shapes reject your mental state, so they are called heart beasts, which means the monster that reflects your heart."

"Then have you seen this kind of heart beast?"

Sulun nodded and said, "See you."

"What did you see at that time?"

After I asked, Su Lun hesitated for a while before he said a little embarrassedly: "I saw an old and dissatisfied old woman."

"Ah? How did you see this?" To be honest, I was really surprised to hear what Su Lun saw. I thought he would see beauty or something, but I didn't expect it to be an old woman.

Su Lun said helplessly: "I don't know why I saw the image of the old woman. Anyway, I just saw it. Although the heart beast can reflect the heart of a person, it will not answer questions for you. So even if you can see your own heart through it, you can only understand and understand the meaning of it yourself."

I nodded and said, "The heart beast you mentioned is not inside, right?"

Su Lun said: "Yes, there are heart beasts inside, and there are more than one. But you don't have to worry. Heart beasts are neutral creatures. As long as you don't attack actively, they won't do anything to you. Of course, with your strength as Zi Ri, even if you really do anything, they will definitely not be your opponent."

"Then let's go in." I said as I was about to walk in, but I didn't expect that Su Lun would pull him back as soon as he took a step.

"Wait a minute. Although the heart beasts in the cave will not attack people on their own initiative, there is a kind of annoying black bugs here that like to bite people. Although the amount of blood sucks is not large every time, they are too many. It will be troublesome if you don't take some protection."

“Protection?”

Su Lun directly handed me a bottle, and then he took out another one and pulled out the plug and poured the liquid inside to his head. After pouring the liquid, he wiped his whole body like a bath, and finally confirmed that the liquid was stained before stopping. When he looked up, he found that I was still standing there. He immediately asked, "Why don't you wipe it? Hurry up, just pour that on your body and then apply it all over your body."

"What is this?" I opened the bottle and asked, looking at the solution with a faint green inside.

"This is a kind of juice squeezed out by vine plants. It is sold everywhere in the city here. It can be dewormed at ordinary times and can be used as a hemostatic agent at critical moments. If there is a wound on your body, apply it on it. As long as it does not bleed in places like a large artery, it can stop the bleeding in more than ten seconds."

I heard that it was just a plant juice, so I smelled it with my nose. It didn’t taste very good, and it was a little bit rushing. I knew it was a plant, because the sourness in that plant is very obvious. Although the dragon suit on my body is not afraid of insect bites, I still wiped myself in order to save trouble. According to Su Lun, after applying this thing, no insects dare to approach me within at least twelve hours, because the plants that produce this kind of juice are carnivorous plants that specialize in eating insects.

I regretted it when I heard Su Lun’s explanation. I had known that I should have come to Vietnam first and then to the United States, and bring a few bottles of this thing. What kind of Valley of the Insects will probably save a lot of trouble.

After applying the juice, I followed Su Lun into the cave. Judging from the structure of the cave, this is obviously a natural cave. After all, there are no artificial objects such as stone bricks in the cave, and the original form of the cave is still retained. However, although there are no bricks in the cave, it has been artificially rested. First of all, the ground is basically flat, with traces of polishing in many places, and some places with large gaps also have steps. There are also a hanging brazier on the top of the cave. Although it is not said that it is brightly lit, it will not be too dark.

I don’t know if it was because of the juice, but we didn’t see the kind of bug that Sulun mentioned along the way. Because all the forks in the passage except the main passage are so small that normal people can’t get through, there is no need to worry about getting lost here. Moreover, there are braziers in the entire passage, which can also guide people the correct route in addition to lighting.

"Strange, we have been in two or three kilometers, right? Why haven't you seen the heart beast you mentioned?"

"President Zi Ri, do you want to see the Heart Beast? Why didn't you say it earlier?" Su Lun said as if he had just reacted.

I looked at him in surprise and asked, "What do you mean?"

Su Lun looked at the body and said, "The Heart Beast doesn't come out on the main road very much, and it's luck to meet it. However, there are indeed tourists who want to see the Heart Beast, so we, the guides, have developed a way to attract the Heart Beast."

"Why do you think the heart beast is like an animal in a safari? If you want to see it, you have to use food to attract them."

When Su Lun heard my words, he smiled and said, "Actually, it's about the same, but compared to wild animals, the fighting power of the heart beast is stronger." Su Lun took out a small box from his body as he spoke, and then he opened the box and pulled out a rope and pulled it gently and then let go. After the rope was released, it began to slowly roll back. At the same time, the box also made a special music. This sound sounded like a music box, the difference is that the sound produced by this thing is wider and has more tones.

As the song that was not long was completely finished, Su Lun suddenly pointed to the wall in one direction and shouted: "Look at that side, it's out."

Following Su Lun's guidance, I immediately found that smoke was coming out from a small hole in the wall not far ahead, but soon after the smoke was sprayed out, I did not wait for the Heart Beast.

"Didn't you say that you are there? Why did it disappear after just a smoke burst?"

"That smoke is the heart beast."

"Ah? Could it be that my mind is just a ball of cigarette?" I asked in surprise.

Su Lun smiled and said, "No. That ball of smoke is the basic form of the heart beast. They have no entity in this state. After it comes, it will observe you because of curiosity. At this time, as long as you look at it, it will become the form in your mind."

"It turns out that you have to look at each other before you can transform? I thought it would be the image in my heart at first sight."

"It's not that exaggerating. Heart beast is just an intermediate monster, not a high-level creature."

As Su Lun was talking, the heart beast had already floated in front of us. As Su Lun said, it slowly turned around us, then stopped in front of me and turned into a face exactly like mine. Of course, this face only had my face shape and no physicality. It was still a light blue smoke-like thing.

The human face quickly came to me, and then his eyes quickly met my eyes. When our eyes met, the blue smoke suddenly burst out with a dazzling bright light, and the entire cave instantly turned snow-white, and even Su Lun next to him screamed and protected his eyes.

Unlike Su Lun, my Dragon suit comes with a mask and color-changing goggles, so after the light exceeds the limit of the eyes, my mask automatically drops down immediately, and the crystal goggles quickly turn black and filter out excess light. However, because the goggles filter out excess light, I can see the change of the heart beast throughout the whole process. Now I am looking at the heart beast in front of me in shock, because it actually turned into a sun.

That's right. The heart beast turned into a burning giant fireball, almost facing the top of the cave and the ground. It seemed that if it weren't for the cave restrictions, it would have become larger. Of course, in addition to becoming bigger, it was still emitting strong light. Although it was not as powerful as the real sun, the intensity of the light was really exaggerated. Anyway, even if there were others here, they wouldn't expect to see anything except me.

When I was wondering why this guy turned into the sun, the heart beast in front of me suddenly changed again. I saw a flash inside it, and the heart beast, which had originally turned into a white sun, suddenly turned red from the center to the surroundings. Then the whole heart beast turned into a huge red light ball within 0:1 second. This is not the end. After the light ball was formed, many golden cracks suddenly appeared on its surface, and as there were more and more cracks, and there were golden light in the gap.

At this time, the red light ball had become quite dim, and the golden light became very strong. However, the next second, the light ball suddenly burst out completely, but the explosion flames expanded less than one meter and began to quickly retract like a video rewind. The light ball was instantly withdrawn. Within one second, it collapsed from a huge red light ball to a small black dot, and then quietly floated in the air.
