Chapter 145 Entering the Cave!
Then, Qin Feng told the legend of the White Fire Cave from the Fist God Academy.
It turns out that a hundred years ago, a strange white fire suddenly erupted from the underground of the Fist God Academy.
Because of the immense power of the white fire, few members of the Fist God Academy were able to get close, and the academy suffered heavy losses in just one day.
Later, the academy, with the combined strength of many elders, managed to suppress the white fire within a cave, which is now known as the White Fire Cave.
Decades later, a talent with a special physique suddenly appeared at the Fist God Academy.
This man originally worked in the kitchen and was known as the Fire Monk. He was not valued at first, but one day, he actually entered the White Fire Cave and turned the white strange fire into his own.
From then on, the Fire Monk's power increased dramatically. Although he only had the cultivation of the fifth level of the Spirit Martial Realm, he could fight to a draw with someone at the eighth level of the Spirit Martial Realm by relying on this white fire.
It should be understood that once one's cultivation reaches the Spirit Martial Realm, advancing to each subsequent level is extremely difficult.
Even the vice dean of the Fist God Academy is only at the eighth level of the Spirit Martial Realm.
However, although the white fire was extremely powerful, the fire poison also eroded the heart of the Fire Monk. The Fire Monk became more and more bloodthirsty, and in the end, anyone who stood in front of him would be killed by him.
Therefore, the Fire Monk trapped himself in the White Fire Cave and never came out again.
Because of the great contributions Fire Monk had made to the Fist God Academy, the dean decided to make White Fire Cave a forbidden area instead of strangling Fire Monk, since Fire Monk would not come out to kill people unless someone went to his death.
The White Fire Cave became a forbidden area in the outer courtyard, and together with the Dark Ink Shadow Prison in the inner courtyard, they were known as the two most dangerous places in the Fist God Academy.
In the beginning, some ignorant people ventured into the White Fire Cave without permission, and in the end, they all turned into a pile of ashes.
After countless people died, no one dared to enter the cave again.
"Well, I advise you not to go," Qin Feng said.
Leng Yun shrugged, repeating his previous statement: "Since I promised, I must keep my word."
Qin Feng shook his head: "Sigh, I don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing about you."
Leng Yun smiled but didn't say anything. In fact, his actions weren't entirely reckless. In his heart, he had a certain degree of confidence. This was just a fair adventure, with the probability of death and survival each accounting for 50%.
Perhaps the chances of survival are even greater.
Qin Feng didn't know the source of Leng Yun's confidence. Seeing that he couldn't persuade Leng Yun, he could only shake his head and leave.
A short while later, Murong Qin pushed open the door and entered Leng Yun's room.
"That Fire Monk seems to be very powerful," Murong Qin said casually, clearly having heard the legend from elsewhere.
Leng Yun was taken aback: "You're here to persuade me too?"
Murong Qin shook her head, revealing two shallow dimples on her cheeks: "I came to tell you that if you die, I will take care of Silver Moon Crane and Little Rabbit."
Leng Yun smiled bitterly. He felt that this might be the way the entire demon race did things—decisive, strange, and even somewhat cold-blooded.
……
The White Fire Cave is located in the northeast corner of the outer courtyard. It is usually desolate, and the high temperature emanating from the cave makes it impossible for any vegetation to grow around it.
Even the surrounding land has become somewhat charred due to the constant high temperatures.
Early in the morning, the usually deserted White Fire Cave was already surrounded by people.
Among the crowd, besides the outer court disciples, there were also many inner court members who had come to watch the spectacle after hearing the news.
The news that Leng Yun was going to venture into the White Fire Cave had spread throughout the entire Fist God Academy, and had even reached the ears of the vice dean.
However, the vice dean did not stop such things from happening. Fist God Academy is generally very open and does not prohibit students from doing anything.
The corresponding principle is that life and death are predestined, and everything is a matter of one's own choice. If one dies, one cannot blame anyone else.
In the crowd, Qin Feng stood anxiously in the front row, and next to him stood Elder Liu.
The fact that the elder from the Foreign Affairs Department came in person shows just how serious this matter was.
Behind Elder Liu, the crowd, which should have been noisy, was now all well-behaved and did not make a sound.
Not far from them stood Ding Chang, Da Long, and others. Because of the presence of the elders, they were much more restrained, but they still couldn't help but reveal smug smiles.
Murong Qin stood to the side, staring expressionlessly at the White Fire Cave ahead. A gust of wind blew by, ruffling a few strands of her hair.
She remained the center of attention, with most people secretly glancing at her, but it was impossible to tell whether she was worried or not.
Before long, Leng Yun appeared, immediately causing quite a commotion.
Leng Yun was taken aback; he hadn't expected such a grand display.
Looking at his expression, everyone felt that he was a hero who had gone forth never to return.
Qin Feng wanted to say a few more words of advice to him, but in the end he held back.
Leng Yun walked up to Ding Chang and stopped.
"Hehe, Leng Yun, the last person to go in was 20 years ago, and a scream was heard in less than five minutes." Ding Chang laughed. He was talking nonsense. Since he came, no one has dared to enter the White Fire Cave.
Leng Yun said calmly, "You said before that if you don't dare to enter the White Fire Cave, you don't deserve to stay in the Fist God Academy. How about we go into the cave together?"
Ding Chang's face turned ugly. He hadn't expected Leng Yun to pull such a move, so he naturally didn't dare to enter the cave and took two steps back.
The scene was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
Leng Yun stared coldly at Ding Chang for a while, then turned and walked towards the White Fire Cave.
Ding Chang was so nervous that he broke out in a cold sweat. He gritted his teeth as he looked at Leng Yun's back and said, "That bastard! He made me lose face in front of the outer courtyard like this. Luckily, you're about to die!"
As soon as Leng Yun stepped onto the scorched earth surrounding the White Fire Cave, a wave of heat emanated from the soles of his feet.
"This strange fire is indeed powerful," Leng Yun muttered to himself.
However, for someone with a fire attribute like him, this amount of heat is nothing.
As Leng Yun approached the cave entrance step by step, everyone's hearts grew more and more tense. Even Elder Liu was now completely focused on Leng Yun.
Suddenly, a ball of flame erupted around Leng Yun.
Everyone gasped, thinking that the Fire Monk had made his move.
But then, everyone noticed that the flames on Leng Yun's body were yellow.
It turned out that Leng Yun sensed the power of the strange fire and, upon reaching the vicinity of the cave, channeled the flames around his body to resist it.
The Five Elements: Fire!
This is also the main reason why Leng Yun dared to come to the Flame Cave. His fire is the ancestor of all fires, the original fire of the human world, the Five Elements Fire, while the White Fire is just a strange fire. Although it is rare, it is still far from being the Five Elements Fire.
"So this kid is a fire elementalist. And the fire on his body isn't ordinary either; it must be at least some kind of exotic fire," Elder Liu said.
Qin Feng was speechless. So Leng Yun had such a trump card. The others were worried about him, but this kid really kept them in suspense!
However, not many people could see this, and most of the disciples still looked at Leng Yun with fear and trepidation.
Under everyone's gaze, Leng Yun slowly walked into the White Fire Cave!
