Ssuuu!!

Tap! Tap!

"We have arrived!" Dugu Liubai said with both hands still clasped behind his back.

Arrived?

Duan Li casted a look at the 'entrance' of where the maze was supposed to be, and to be honest, he couldn't help but to have certain doubts regarding the sanity of the latter.

Isn't this the mouth of the small volcano?

Has the prowess of my Doomsday Calamity Fist from before shocked him so much that he had gone bonkers in his head?

Seemingly to understand Duan Li's inner thoughts, Dugu Liubai made a dry cough before explaining.

"Ahem! The entrance of the maze is about 200 meters just below the lava. Once you get past through it, you will see a large metal door. Through that door, your trial will then begin!"

"200 meters.. under these lava?" Duan Li's mouth twitched as he gazed at that bubbling hot rocks that was ready to burn anything it touches to ash in disbelief.

Who in the world would be so crazy as to set up the entrance of a maze below a hot pool of lava?!

You must be trying to dupe me!

Duan Li gave a suspicious side glance towards the old Guardian.

Pu!

"I am not lying! These lava serves to warn those who wanted to enter the maze to have the proper means or body toughness as the prerequisite at least! If they can't even overcome this simple hurdle, how would they even survive of what is inside the actual maze?" Dugu Liubai harrumphed.

He then continued, "Don't tell me that you can't get past through this warm bath? Even the exit gate is located just before that door! If you can't pass through this lava, not to mention of entering the maze, you won't be able to even return back to the outside world!" he casted a weird look onto Duan Li.

This fella had done so many heaven-defying stuff today, and you're acting like you are afraid of some lava? I would be an absolute fool if I were to believe that! Hmph!

Gritting his teeth a little bit, Duan Li replied, "Of course I can pass through it! Just that I don't expect the entrance to be like this.."

Dugu Liubai then waved his hand dismissively with a hint of disdain as he looked towards the sky. "You have seen nothing yet! Compared to the other regions after this, diving into a pool of magma is not even worth a mention!"

He then explained that unlike the First region where there were a total of three mazes, the Second and the following regions after that only had one maze!

However, the entrance towards the maze would be filled with increasing precariousness for the following subsequent regions!

Hearing this, Duan Li nodded his head with a grim countenance in comprehension.

From here on, I guess it would only grew more difficult..

"I see.. then all I have to do is just dive straight into these lava right?" he asked once more.

"En! That's right. Now hurry up and move along! I don't have all day to attend to you!" Dugu Liubai replied with a snort.

This old Guardian, why is he so overbearing..

Clasping his fist together respectfully, Duan Li bid his farewell, as well as expressing his gratitude towards the latter whom apparently was feeling quite impatient about sending him off.

What a weird Guardian..

Huuu!!

In the Core formation realm, one would already be able to create a spiritual Qi barrier around them intrinsically and this was what Duan Li just used. It was described to be an all-purpose defensive barrier capable of withstanding any sorts of physical damage done to it, as long as the damage was not over its stress level.

Leaping forward, Duan Li plunged himself into that hot pool of lava.

Plop!

"..."

Haa!

Dugu Liubai was finally able to let out a huge exhale in relief soon after Duan Li's departure.

"Even his spiritual Qi barrier was already so dense, so he shouldn't have problems navigating through the lava.. but I thought that he would use that blue barrier from back then to.. ah well, it doesn't matter! I only hope that he would be able to at least make it out of here alive and disturb the other regions next.."

Having that fellow around was far too nervewrecking! Who knows what kind of calamity he would bring forward if he were to stay any longer?

At least that now my island is secure from further harm and I was able to keep my job as the Guardian of this place..

...

Meanwhile, Duan Li whom was slowly descending downwards into the depths of the lava pool began to furrowed his brows together.

"It's getting hotter and harder to breath.."

Eventually, he reached a depth where he had to claw his way in, as the further he went, the denser the magma seemed to be, until it almost felt solid as a rock!

"Screw this!"

You want to impede me?

Nine Palms Slapping Ocean!

PADAAHHH!!

...

"Alright, time to go back to the magma chamber and cultivate once more for some more years, I think I'm really close to a breakthrough and.."

KABOOOMMMM!!

Before Dugu Liubai could even finish his sentence, the mouth of the small volcano exploded out and gushed tons of molten rocks into the atmosphere, creating rains of hell on the paradise island!

Eh?

"W-What the heck? What's happening?!"

Without any further thought he immediately threw out fists after fists to smash out those molten rocks before they hit the ground, or else the habitat of the numerous animal and monster species at the foot of the volcano would be burned to cinders!

It must be because of that fellow!

Dammit! Can't he even take a break?!

...

After slapping the bulk of the lava away, Duan Li was able to swiftly made his way down and finally reached an open space, devoid of any magma.

Tap!

Landing on both of his feet, he gazed up and couldn't help but to feel amazed. The lava that was floating above him was seemingly held by some invisible barrier!

"Must be spatial arts.. I really should study and learn a few of them next time when I got the time.."

Looking around, Duan Li saw a huge rusted iron door that gave out an archaic aura, and beside it was a dark vortex spinning around that feels quite familiar to him.

"That must be the exit.." Duan Li cupped his chin as he pondered for a moment.

If it were any other person, unless that person was courting death, they would chose the spinning vortex to exit out of this place once and for all and temper themselves to become stronger before entering the maze.

But Duan Li had already achieved a breakthrough to the pinnacle of the Core formation realm, thus if he were to exit, he won't be able to return to the Second region anymore since they were locked to one's own realm, unless that person was hiding under a person's shadow like Di Rou.

Therefore, it didn't took him long to decide and propped himself up in front of the metal door to give it a heavy kick.

BANGG!!

The door was thrown wide open, in fact, Duan Li's forceful behavior had almost broke the door off from its hinges!

"Eh? That wasn't as heavy as it looks.."

Flapping his robes to the side grandly, Duan Li began to walk in large strides as he entered the maze.

Unbeknownst to him, a pair of eyes was already watching him silently from the moment he set foot inside this maze.

His trial has begun!
