Chapter 551: Chapter 320: Departure and Underground Tunnel_2

Unfortunately,

due to the presence of fire.

The intense high temperature is enough to destroy any scientific instruments.

Therefore,

the only “safe zone” they can be sure of

is only a kilometre away from here.

As for what lies beyond, Chen Sheng and others can only rely on their own exploration.

That being said,

Li Wuji’s figure turned into a black thread, rushing towards the tunnel in front.

The three men followed closely behind.

A distance of one kilometre is not long for them.

Especially when there are no other abnormalities confirmed.

In just a breath’s time,

the four top-tier transcendent beings had already reached the previously explored boundary.

However,

even advancing a kilometre, there isn’t much change in the scenery within sight.

If there’s anything different,

it’s the flame’s color.

Chen Sheng noticed keenly,

in comparison to the bright red flames a kilometre away,

the hues he saw now were somewhat lighter.

But the temperature didn’t decrease, it increased instead.

“From now on, we need to slow down our pace a little.”

As Li Wuji spoke,

he took a technology-packed box out of his pocket.

“In order to provide enough data to the scientific researchers on the surface, I need to place an information collecting device.”

“However…”

While speaking,

Li Wuji looked around with slightly furrowed brows.

Every inch of surrounding space is occupied by flames.

This situation is obviously much worse than a kilometre away,

making him doubt whether these specially-made collectors can withstand the continuous burning of the flames.

Thinking of this,

Li Wuji didn’t continue speaking.

Protective body light covered the surface,

he squatted down and reached out to the flame-covered ground.

At this moment,

The flames instantly soared, attacking Li Wuji’s palm.

In an instant,

The protective body light on Li Wuji’s surface was stimulated and quickly emitted dazzling light, blocking the flames outside.

The two were engaged in fierce combat.

Fortunately,

after several seconds,

The protective body light proved to be stronger, resisting the invasion of the flames.

Still,

aside from Chen Sheng, the other three looked somewhat pale.

Both Rhein and Or regarded Li Wuji as a strong person above even them.

But now, without even facing the Heavenly Person, they were nearly shaken by the mere after-effects of the Heavenly Person’s power on Li Wuji’s protective body light.

When they eventually get close to the Heavenly Person and confront them for real,

how will they deal with that?

For a moment,

the originally relaxed expressions of the two turned grave unconsciously.

As for Li Wuji,

After successfully warding off the flames’ attacks, he took the opportunity to grab the rock and soil on the ground.

The protective body light flashed again,

and the flames were immediately extinguished.

However,
