Chapter 281: Ancient Maze

Spending the next few hours inside of the now sealed off cave under the mountain, Feng Chen slowly recovered his strength as the fighting above showed no signs of ending. Only growing more and more chaotic with each passing minute as more and more demon beasts seemed to join in.

The scene above would surely be one of complete devastation at this point in time Feng Chen and Zu Fei could be considered quite lucky to be underground at the moment. The snake from earlier that had tried to slither away, had most likely not gotten away from the large scale fight happening above

"Hah Let's get going!" Taking a deep breath, Feng Chen opened his eyes before motioning towards Zu Fei cautiously standing guard beside him.

Slowly, a small smile formed on the corner of his lips, when he saw the focused look on Zu Fei's face as she was on guarding him in case some demon beast jumped out from the deeper part of the cave while he was busy recovering.

"Yes!"

Turning towards Feng Chen the moment she noticed him moving, Zu Fei excitedly nodded her head as both of them began making their way deeper down into the mountain cave together.

The fighting above showed no sign of stopping any time soon, so it would be better for the two of them to look for another way out, instead of waiting for the fighting above to reach them

The mountain cave was way deeper than both of them could have predicted as they continued downwards for at least another hundred meters before reaching what could only be described as an underground maze, with the cave splitting up into a dozen small paths and those paths splitting off into even more paths further in.

Zu Fei was the first to notice something wrong with the maze-like construct in front of them as she walked up beside one of the paths that the mountain cave had split into and closely observed it for a few minutes.

"This looks artificial"

Saying this, Zu Fei picked up what looked like a long since decayed stone brick barely visible beside the entrance of the path.

"Indeed Looks like we have stumbled upon an ancient ruin of sorts But I never heard about any Sect, kingdom or Empire having settled and build in the Burning Mountain Range before How old is this maze?"

Agreeing with what Zu Fei said as he looked over at the stone brick in her hand begging to slowly crumble, Feng Chen began to think about the age of the maze in front of them.

When was it made? Who made it and why?

These questions swirled around Feng Chen's mind as looked at the maze in front of him with both a confused and fearful expression on his face.

There was a reason why no Empire, Kingdom or Sect had ever tried controlling the Burning Mountain Range in the past and now they were faced with the ruins of some ancient power that had most likely done what no other power on the Ewaria Continent had done before To say he felt fearful towards what dangers lurked in the ancient ruins before him would be an understatement

Rumble!

Roar!

The cave suddenly began shaking violently, interrupting both Feng Chen and Zu Fei's thoughts as a loud roar sounded from above them, filled with an almost insane madness and killing intent.

Did the demon beasts above finally sense them!?

Roar!

Bang!

This thought crossed both of their minds at the same time as another roar followed by a loud banging noise from above sounded out from above so as to confirm their thoughts.

The demon beasts above did indeed sense their presence! And even seemed to be digging down to get them!

"So Which path should we take?"

Looking over at Zu Fei with a nervous smile on his lips, Feng Chen had already decided to enter the maze before them to get away from the demon beasts above.

Even the Peak Nascent Soul Realm serpent had been scared of them! Clearly the demon beasts above were Half-Step Domain Lord demon beasts, if not stronger! Not really something they could fight with their current strength

"Let's take this one"

Understanding what Feng Chen meant, Zu Fei quickly picked the path that she had found the now completely decayed stone brick in front of.

Not wasting anymore time, Feng Chen and Zu Fei both entered the ancient maze in front of them without any hesitation.

Finding out why so many powerful demon beasts had suddenly decided to gather and fight above them was not a great concern of theirs at the moment, as getting away safely was way more important

The moment Zu Fei and Feng Chen entered the ancient maze in an attempt to find a way out, the terrifying demon beasts momentarily stopped digging as a large bright red fruit appeared in a deep crater where the mountain Zu Fei and Feng Chen entered stood before.

The entire mountain had been reduced to dust by the more than dozen terrifying demon beasts as they all stared at the bright red fruit that had appeared in front of them with an insatiable greed and insanity shinning in their eyes.

ROAR!

Ssss!

Mooo!

The more than dozen demon beasts all let out their own unique roars as they watched the bright red fruit in the crater slowly float into the air before shining brightly as a sea of blood red light covered the surroundings, causing the dozen or so demon beasts to grow even more insane and crazy.

Boom!

The bright red fruit final seemed to reach a climax as the sea of blood red light shrank before merging together with the fruit before a tempting aroma filled the surroundings.

Roar!

Roar!

Roar!

The agitated roars of several weaker demon beasts could be heard from the surroundings as a horde of weaker demon beasts at the Core Formation Realm formed before charging towards the bright red fruit. Ignoring the dozen or so demon beasts at the Domain Lord Realm.

Boom!

The charging demon beasts were directly killed off by the Domain Lord demon beasts as a sea of blood formed beneath the bright red fruit.

Swish~

The sea of blood that had formed from the charging demon beasts inside the crater slowly began to float into the air as it was absorbed by the bright red fruit.

Swoosh!

This continued until the sea of blood completely disappeared and along with it, the dozen Domain Lord demon beast no longer remained in place as they once again began fighting again.

ROAR!

Moo!

BOOM!

Their blood splattered all over the crater as it soon began to flow through the air before being absorbed by the bright red fruit floating gently mid-air

Feng Chen and Zu Fei were completely unaware of the massacre that was taking place above them or the real reason why the demon beasts had begun digging at the location where they were hiding.

Instead, they were more worried about what sort of dangers lay before them inside of the ancient maze that they now found themselves inside of
