Chapter 710: Arch-Enemy of the Firebird
Jiang Yun was completely unaware of the situation inside the Reincarnation Cave, but he never expected to find living beings there.
Despite this being beyond Jiang Yun’s expectations, he remained calm.
Because this Reincarnation Cave is not a forbidden place, it can even be considered a Blessed Land for all prisoners in the Dao Prison.
Of course, although this creature has a strong presence, it shouldn’t attack a prisoner like himself, nor pose a threat to his life.
However, this unexpected discovery stirred something in Jiang Yun’s heart.
"Could it be that this creature can remove the poison in a cultivator’s body?"
"Also, could it be possible that the reason why the Firebird always avoids the Reincarnation Cave is also because of the presence of this creature."
"If that’s the case, whether it’s a human or a demon, it’s probably in a hostile relationship with the Firebird!"
With these thoughts flooding in, Jiang Yun’s gaze also looked deeply into the depths of the cave.
Although the cave was incredibly dark, it wasn’t enough to block Jiang Yun’s sight.
So much so that he could clearly see that the terrain inside the cave was not flat, but gradually sloping downward, showing a certain degree of slope.
It means that this turning hole should lead to the underground.
Jiang Yun wasn’t in a hurry to go deep into the Reincarnation Cave. To avoid unnecessary trouble, he didn’t even let his special sense spread in, he just glanced briefly and looked away.
Then, he used his special sense to scan the sedan chair and found a young man lying inside with closed eyes and a pale face.
There were faint black fumes moving on the man’s exposed skin, like little snakes. Just as Jiang Yun guessed, the poison inside his body was already at a dangerous level.
Although the man was unconscious now, there were fresh tear marks on his face.
Obviously, he must have known that all his guards were already dead!
Jiang Yun didn’t know how to remove the poison once inside the Reincarnation Cave.
With the presence of a living being inside the cave, he didn’t dare to act recklessly. He had to retract his special sense from the man’s body, looked again at the world outside the cave still pouring with rain of fire, feeling amazed in his heart.
Even though the temperature outside was frighteningly high, no heat could enter into the cave.
Just a cave apart, it felt like two different worlds.
Watching the fireball rain about to end, Jiang Yun hesitated, then stepped out of the Reincarnation Cave to continue devouring flames.
Only after all the flames were extinguished did he return to the cave he turned from.
As soon as he entered the cave, he suddenly heard very faint breaths coming from deep within.
His face changed instantly as he swiftly opened the curtains of the litter, only to find it empty.
"During my absence, did that creature take the people in the litter into the cave on its own?"
"Listening to this sound now, could it be removing the poison from the man’s body?"
Staring at the empty litter and the dark, bottomless Reincarnation Cave, Jiang Yun fell into contemplation, pondering whether he should enter.
As for the Firebird feathers, he had quietly collected over a dozen in the past year, so if they truly wanted feathers, he could provide them.
In the end, Jiang Yun muttered to himself, "Oh well, let’s see what secrets lie within this Reincarnation Cave when it comes to saving people!"
With these words, Jiang Yun finally took a step towards the Reincarnation Cave.
Jiang Yun thought that he might encounter creatures inside the cave trying to stop him, but to his surprise, he encountered no obstacles along the way.
However, the further Jiang Yun went into the cave, the colder it became, forcing him to use his abilities to resist the chilly temperatures.
After walking for quite a distance, Jiang Yun suddenly heard an angry roar from ahead, "I sense the presence of the firebird on you, get lost!"
Suddenly, in the darkness, a red rope slashed through the blackness at incredible speed towards Jiang Yun.
A glint of cold light flashed in Jiang Yun’s eyes as he prepared to grab the red rope, but then his expression changed abruptly.
His hand stopped in midair, and he swiftly dodged backward to avoid the attack of the red rope.
After missing its target, the red rope retreated back into the darkness.
At that moment, another dark figure was thrown out of the darkness, accompanied by an angry voice, "If I knew he was with you, I wouldn’t have helped him get rid of the poison gas. Go away, go away, quickly go away!"
The person thrown out was the young man from the sedan earlier.
Although he was still unconscious with his eyes closed tightly, the dark gas on his skin had vanished, clearly showing that a lot of the poison gas inside him had been removed.
Jiang Yun caught the man and after a moment of contemplation, he said in a deep voice towards the darkness, "I have offended, so I will leave now!"
After saying this, Jiang Yun decisively took the man and retreated quickly, instantly returning to the entrance of the Reincarnation Cave.
After placing the man on the ground, Jiang Yun let out a sigh, his eyes shining with excitement, muttering to himself, "I didn’t expect, I actually guessed it right!"
Even though the red rope just now was very fast, Jiang Yun’s eyesight was exceptional, and he immediately recognized that it was not a red rope at all, but a red tongue!
Furthermore, with his sharp eyesight, he even vaguely saw that the one sticking out the tongue was a golden toad!
In other words, the creature inside the so-called Reincarnation Cave was actually a toad monster.
Moreover, there should be more than one such toad, but a whole group, as Reincarnation Cave is not just one.
The relationship between this group of toads and the firebird is like water and fire, like natural enemies.
The toad only sensed the presence of the firebird on itself, and angrily rolled away.
Jiang Yun did not act against the toad because he considered that if it could truly remove the toxic gas in a cultivator’s body, he might need to seek its help in the future.
If he angered them now, it would be like shooting oneself in the foot.
"Mmm!"
Just then, a faint groan came from the unconscious young man.
The man slowly opened his eyes, looking confused, not knowing what he had experienced.
As his eyes darted around faster, the confusion gave way to a sparkle.
Until he saw Jiang Yun standing expressionless beside him, he jumped up from the ground, looking alertly at Jiang Yun.
Jiang Yun also looked at him without saying a word.
After a moment, the man’s eyes suddenly turned red, and with a thud, he knelt in front of Jiang Yun and said, "Thank you, sir, for saving my life."
As he spoke, tears started flowing uncontrollably from his eyes.
Clearly, he remembered everything, knowing that all his guards were dead, and it was Jiang Yun who had saved him in the nick of time.
Seeing the sadness and tears on the man’s face, Jiang Yun nodded silently.
The man’s emotions were genuine, truly saddened by the deaths of his guards, showing his decent character, which made Jiang Yun feel somewhat fond of him.
Jiang Yun’s expression softened and he said, "You don’t need to thank me, I simply did what I could, the real savior was your companions!"
The man nodded, stopped crying after a while, wiped his face with his sleeve, and then said to Jiang Yun, "If I’m not mistaken, sir, you must have just arrived at this Dao Prison, right?"
