Just as everyone started to rush towards the entrance of the maze cave, Ye Li received another warning from Tunri. Tunri felt the changes at the bottom of the maze cave and said, "Ye Li, the power outside the Earth Fire Gate has accumulated even more.
If the power of that rune formation is accumulated enough, and then it is bombarded towards the Gate of Earth and Fire, it will definitely be able to completely smash the Gate of Earth and Fire open.
Time is running out now, you must break out of the encirclement in a short time, otherwise once the underground fire gate erupts, the entire area will be engulfed by the underground fire."
Hearing Tunri's words, Ye Li quickened his pace, walked to Ye Wujin, and whispered the situation to him.
After hearing this, Ye Wujin frowned and nodded with a worried look on his face, saying, "Okay, I understand."
Afterwards, Ye Wujin also told the Cao family the news, but he only said that he discovered the situation was already very urgent when he saw the rune formation before, and he did not say that this was what Ye Li had just felt.
However, the Cao family also attaches great importance to this. After all, many people know the name of the Gate of Underground Fire. If the Gate of Underground Fire is opened and the underground fire gushes out, basically no one here can escape.
Soon, everyone arrived at the top level of the maze, close to the exit.
Sure enough, this place was crowded with various monsters, all with red eyes.
There are many exits of the maze cave, distributed everywhere. Now, a large number of monsters have gathered at all the exits, trying their best to stop the people inside from rushing out.
Although the monsters were not very strong, they were numerous and relied on their fearlessness and bravery to intercept the team that wanted to attack.
The Ye family and the Cao family also quickly started fighting with the monsters. They formed a battle formation and charged towards the huge group of monsters.
Ye Li no longer concealed his strength. He first drew a nine-character and six-character flame gathering talisman, and immediately followed it with an extreme flame finger of the same nine-character and six-character style.
After all, they were talismans of the same origin, and the two instantly combined perfectly. The originally dark blue flame instantly turned into a dark purple flame, gathering on the tip of Ye Li's index finger.
Before the purple flame was ignited, the power it exuded had already moved the people around him. They also truly felt Ye Li's power.
With other talisman masters in the spirit-descending stage and the elixir stage making the frontal attack, it was very easy for him to launch a sneak attack from behind.
Every time he pointed his finger, a purple beam of light as thick as a human head shot towards the monster on the opposite side.
These monsters were fearless and basically did not dodge much. Monsters below the Lingdan stage were almost always killed if hit, and those that were luckier would immediately lose their combat effectiveness even if they did not die.
The power of Ye Li's Great Golden Sun Finger was so strong that the monsters it touched fell one after another, with an incredibly high efficiency.
However, even so, there was no relief on his face, because there were too many monsters blocking the way.
Even if they tried their best to kill, they still couldn't break through the blockade in a short period of time.
But their strength is limited. The series of battles have prevented many people from fully recovering their strength. Now it is another tug-of-war. The longer it drags on, the worse their fighting power will become.
It is impossible for Ye Li to release the Great Golden Sun Finger indefinitely. After all, although this move is powerful, it also consumes a lot of spiritual energy. Even if he has made a divine elixir, it is impossible for him to consume spiritual energy indefinitely.
What made him feel most uneasy was that the Sun Devouring in his sea of consciousness had been reminding him of the situation underground.
The power gathered by the rune formation is getting stronger and stronger. It won’t take much time for it to be fully gathered, and the crisis of the Earth Fire Gate is imminent.
After a while, Tunri's voice sounded again: "No, Ye Li, you can't delay any longer. You definitely can't kill all these monsters in a short time. You don't have enough time to rush over.
You must now go to the rune formation below and destroy the power accumulated in the formation."
Hearing Tunri's words, Ye Li was slightly stunned and said, "Senior Tunri, do you mean that I must go down to the magma area at the bottom?"
Tunri nodded and said, “Yes, you must go down to the magma area at the bottom.
As for how to destroy the power gathered by the rune formation, I think you can only try using the Liuyanyan Suanlu.
I have to look at the rune formation first to determine the specific method. I have only heard their description before, so I am not completely sure.
But if you go down and give it a try, your chances of survival are definitely better than staying here."
Ye Li has always trusted Tunri very much, and this time he agreed to its suggestion without much hesitation.
"Third Grandpa, this won't work. We won't be able to get out in a short time.
The underground fire gate below is about to open. If we keep delaying, we will all die here.
I must go down and see the rune formation with my own eyes to see if I can break it using the method my master taught me.
If we can break that rune formation, we can stop the Earth Fire Gate from opening. Otherwise, staying here will definitely lead to death."
After Ye Li said something behind Ye Wujin, without waiting for the other party's consent, he turned around and ran back the way he came up.
At this time, everyone's attention was on the monster opposite, and almost no one noticed Ye Li's movements.
Moreover, the situation was critical at the moment. Even if someone noticed Ye Li's actions, they would not have time to think about anything and would continue to devote themselves to the battle.
After leaving the team, Ye Li immediately activated the Wind Ring, which turned into a gust of wind and blew towards the depths of the cave.
He moved very quickly. This road had been cleared by them before, and he would not encounter any monsters if he went back now, so he could run as fast as he could.
It took him half the time to return to the place where he met Ye Canglong and the others.
Although he had not walked the next road, because it was not too far from the rune formation, Tunri could sense the direction of the rune formation, so Ye Li could still find the route by feeling.
Relying on his sense of feeling, he quickly found the traces left by Ye Wutan and his companions when they were tracked by the Ghost-faced Spider.
Following the traces, he easily arrived at the place where the magma was spreading.
At this time, the underground magma had completely submerged the area where Ye Wujin found Ye Wuotian. The magma poured in from the passage they came down and spread to a very high position.
Ye Li could not go down any further, so he could only rely on Tunri's guidance to go around in a circle and take another road to the top of the cave where the red pillar was.
Tunri looked outside in his sea of consciousness and said, “Ye Li, right below the big rock in front of you is the center of the rune formation. I can feel that the power gathered by the rune formation is gathered there.
You must find a way to break through this layer of rock to see the rune formation underneath."
