"Originally, there were five True Immortal-level strongmen in the Hanging Cave, led by the Holy Infant King. However, four important figures came to the Hanging Cave a few days ago. The Holy Infant King attached great importance to those four people. They should all have the cultivation level of the True Immortal stage." Hei Yu said.
When Shen Luo heard this, his heart sank.
If there were only Red Boy and four other True Immortal-level demon clans here, with his current strength, plus the Thunder Gods, the Giant Spirit, and other Mahayana-level heavenly soldiers in the Heavenly Book, he could barely deal with them. But now the other side has four more True Immortal-level demon clans, and he has no chance of winning at all.
As for the Xuanhuo Battle Formation that Huo San mentioned, it is only possible after the entire Huomei clan is rescued, so it cannot be relied upon at all.
But no matter how difficult things are, you can't give up.
"What are the purpose of those four True Immortal Demons coming to the Hanging Cave?" Shen Luo asked after pondering for a moment.
"I don't know about this. I only heard that the four people stayed in the secret room all day long. Maybe they were helping the Holy Infant King to refine the treasure." Heiyu said.
Shen Luo also had this guess. It seemed that the treasure was extraordinary.
"Take me into the hanging cave without letting anyone notice. Can you do it?" He was silent for a moment and said to Heiyu.
"We can give it a try." Hei Yu hesitated for a moment and nodded.
Shen Luo could feel Heiyu's emotions. Although he was not 100% sure about what he said, he was still 60 to 70% sure. He immediately waved his hand and released Heiyu from the Heavenly Book.
Heiyu and Shen Luo were already connected in mind and spirit. Although Shen Luo had concealed his whereabouts with an invisibility talisman at the moment, Heiyu could still sense Shen Luo's location. After paying his respects to him, he flew towards the depths of Huokuo Mountain.
Shen Luo followed slowly behind.
The two soon arrived at the depths of Huokuo Mountain. The air was filled with a pungent smell of sulfur, and there were billowing black flames and volcanic ash, which was very unpleasant. More importantly, the smell of fire here was several times stronger than outside, and Shen Luo felt a little uncomfortable from the burning.
Hei Yu took out a red talisman and stuck it on his body. Suddenly, a layer of red light appeared on his body surface, offsetting most of the high temperature around him. He calmly came to a valley that was more than ten miles wide.
There is a huge active volcano on each side of the col, which spews out columns of lava, fire and thick smoke into the sky from time to time. In the col there is a huge pit that leads straight to the ground, and the bottom cannot be seen at a glance.
The pit is a perfect cylinder and does not seem to be formed naturally, but rather dug artificially. Caves have been dug out on the mountain wall inside the pit, densely packed like a honeycomb. From time to time, some demon soldiers go in and out of these caves.
"Master, this is the Hanging Cave." Hei Yu communicated with Shen Luo through his mind.
"Take me to the cave." Shen Luo looked at the scene in front of him and said through his mind.
Hei Yu agreed and flew towards the hanging cave.
There were many demon soldiers patrolling outside the hanging cave, but fortunately their skills were not strong enough to see through Shen Luo's invisibility talisman.
Seeing Heiyu returning, several demon soldiers immediately came to greet him. The leader was an eagle demon in the middle stage of the out-of-body state. He had a tuft of golden feathers on his head, and looked quite extraordinary.
"Hey, isn't this Captain Heiyu? I heard that you went to chase the escaped Huo San, why did you come back alone? Did you fail to catch him?" The Eagle Demon looked at Heiyu and said with a smile, his words showing a sense of gloating.
