I woke up to find myself as the villain's older sister.

Chapter 262 Fiery Beast

The only plants that can survive on this barren land are the flame thorns covered in black thorns, growing in clumps in places where fires frequently break out.

The terrain here is flat and open, but fortunately, the thorns provided cover, so Yun Yu'er and the others didn't find her.

The Fiery Pool was located inside an underground cave. Following the general direction given on the map, Yun Yu'er and the others searched within the target area.

Fortunately, the cave entrance wasn't too hidden; in fact, it was quite obvious. So, the group found the cave in no time.

Just as Zhang Zitian and the others were about to go in, Yun Yu'er stopped them.

"What's wrong, Junior Sister?" Zhang Zitian asked, puzzled.

Yun Yu'er frowned slightly. Possessing a mutated ice spirit root, she was exceptionally sensitive to fire spirit power, and it seemed that a sixth-order fire beast was hiding at this cave entrance.

Fire Beasts are elemental spirit beasts and do not appear alone. If one is found, there are definitely other Fire Beasts among them.

“It’s…it’s a Fiery Beast…” Ou Ruo said weakly from behind. Although she, who also had a mutated ice spirit root, was not as talented as Yun Yu’er, she was still keenly aware of the danger inside the cave.

"What? It's actually a Fire Beast!" Not only Zhang Zitian, but the other junior brothers also looked extremely ugly. As disciples of major sects, they had naturally studied knowledge about these strange beasts.

So when he learned that there was a Fiery Beast, he unconsciously took a few steps back.

"Senior sister...how about we..." One of the junior brothers, somewhat frightened, began to back out.

"Hmph..." Yun Yu'er snorted, "What's there to be afraid of? Isn't that what I'm here for?"

Upon hearing Yun Yu'er's words, the junior brother immediately realized, "That's right, our senior sister is a genius who is unique in the last ten thousand years, and she also has a rare mutated ice spirit root. What's so scary about a mere Fiery Beast?"

With this in mind, everyone regained their confidence.

Yun Yu'er beckoned to Ou Ruo, "Come here."

"Senior sister..." Ou Ruo walked over hesitantly.

"Heh." Yun Yu'er laughed sarcastically. "With your timid appearance, I really don't understand why Master would take you as a disciple."

After saying that, Yun Yu'er didn't wait for her to speak and directly instructed, "I will lead the way later. You fellow disciples will follow up and clean up the mess. Don't let the flames affect the team."

“Yes… Senior Sister,” Ou Ruo said weakly.

Ignoring Ou Ruo, Yun Yu'er led the group into the cave first.

The cave was large, but there was only one path. The path wasn't very wide, and on both sides were scorching lava. The fire beasts emerged from this lava and attacked the people on the path.

Yun Qingyi followed from a distance. As soon as she arrived at the cave entrance, she saw a burst of icy blue light filling every corner of the cave. Yun Qingyi waited at the entrance for a while and when she noticed that the cold white light had disappeared, she quickly went inside.

It seems the first fire beast has been eliminated. It seems Yun Yu'er's strength has increased considerably in recent days. Stepping on the remaining broken ice on the ground, she followed step by step.

Fortunately, there was cover along this path.

Yun Qingyi quickly hid behind a rock on the road, silently watching Yun Yu'er fight the Fiery Beast.

Seeing the fiery beast, which was covered in flames and resembled a Qilin with a long snake tail, Yun Qingyi hid behind the rocks again.

This fire beast is at least at the seventh level, and its strength is much greater than the previous one. Looking at Yun Yu'er, who was clearly struggling, Yun Qingyi analyzed it in her mind.

Fire Beasts are spirit beasts, which develop intelligence earlier than demon beasts. Although a seventh-tier Fire Beast cannot speak human language, its intelligence is equivalent to that of a ten-year-old child, and it is extremely cunning.

Yun Yu'er's eyes were fierce as she aimed her attacks at the Fire Beast's vital points, but the Fire Beast dodged them each time. Once it realized it was no match for the Fire Beast, it would immediately run back into the lava.
