Divine Flame Crystal

Chapter 453 Bath Water Temperature

The two of them walked along like this, without using any magic, but their speed was not slow at all. The devil found that Xingluo could actually keep up with him, and he was surprised again. To him, being able to keep up with him meant that the other party's strength was above that of a high-level magician, and he even had some secrets of his own. He estimated that he would be able to shine in the organization in the future, and then he would definitely get more benefits as a leader, so the devil started talking more.

Xingluo began to intentionally guide the direction of the topic, and even took the initiative to ask about some things that interested him. The demon was in a good mood at the moment, so he naturally told him as much as he knew. Xingluo also learned about the situation of the Abyss Society, but this demon probably had a limited status, so he didn't know anything more in-depth. This made Xingluo a little depressed. It was rare for him to meet a demon who was willing to chat with him, so of course he hoped that the other party knew as much as possible.

After an unknown amount of time, a huge volcano appeared before the two of them. At the end of their vision, in the depths of the distant wilderness, stood a silent and ancient volcano. The crater seemed to be shrouded in thick sulfur smoke all year round, which was daunting. There was a narrow road leading to the interior of the volcano. It seemed that only the bravest and wisest people could pass through the steep rock passage. Xingluo followed the demon's steps and walked steadily. In his peripheral vision, he found a secret path hidden in the gaps between the flowing lava. The path was winding and mysterious, leading to an unknown deep cave.

Xingluo followed the demon without showing any fear, which made the demon look at him with more respect. He even said more, "Don't worry, although it looks dangerous here, this volcano hasn't erupted in who knows how many years. And even though it's magma below, the temperature is actually not high at all. I accidentally fell down there before, and the temperature was about the same as bath water."

Xing Luo couldn't help but complain inwardly, "Nonsense, you are a demon, of course you think the temperature of the magma is not high. If an ordinary person goes down, he will turn into carbon ash in an instant."

The secret meeting place of the Abyss Society is in a huge underground cave at the end of the path, which is completely isolated from the outside world. The cave is surrounded by naturally formed basalt walls, which are covered with ancient and mysterious runes and carvings. These runes seem to tell the secrets left over from ancient times. The cave is spacious and high enough to accommodate dozens of people. In the dim environment, only a few lava pools emit a faint red light, which shines on the stone wall, adding a touch of weird and mysterious color to the whole space.

The center of the cave is the most eye-catching place, a large round table carved from obsidian, its surface is as smooth as a mirror, and it is inlaid with sparkling gems. These gems seem to have an important role in summoning ancient power or performing mysterious rituals. There are several seats made of basalt around the round table, each of which is covered with complex and exquisite patterns that symbolize power and wisdom.

In addition to the main cave, there are several hidden small passages, each of which goes deeper into the volcano, and some even connect to more hidden small rooms or secret places. These small rooms may contain precious documents, rare treasures or mysterious ritual items. Each room is an independent little world. Xingluo has a general understanding of this place. Although this demon is average in strength, he knows a lot.

The atmosphere of the entire space is full of a sense of history and infinite possibilities, as if it had been an important meeting place for different times and ethnic groups, and an important place for secret ceremonies and decision-making. Here, whether it is a whisper or a heated discussion, every word seems to be remembered and echoed by the volcano itself, making this place even more sacred and solemn.

Only those who are wise can enter here. "You have passed the initial assessment. Someone will take you to complete the next assessment in a while. But don't worry, with your level of the Darkness-Free Realm, you will definitely pass."

Xingluo nodded, and before long, the door deep in the cave opened, and a demon emitting a strong dark aura walked out. He was handsome and full of wildness, but his facial features were delicate, like a sculpture, which made Xingluo, a man, admire him a little. He must have a stronger killing power on women. This is a high-level demon, and his appearance is comparable to the top humans.

The senior demon took out the instrument to test it, glanced at the demon who brought Xingluo and said, "It's not time yet, why are you back, and you brought an ant with you."

The demon who brought Xingluo hurriedly said: "My lord, he is not an ordinary high-level magician, but he can create cursed objects, and his realm has reached the realm of no darkness."

The high-level demon once again cast his gaze towards Xingluo. Xingluo felt a huge pressure, but fortunately his mental strength was not weak, so he was not unable to resist. The high-level demon exclaimed, "Not bad, you are quite capable. Let me see the curse you made."

Xingluo took out the cursed object from his arms again, examined it carefully for a moment, smiled and nodded: "Yes, the Abyss Academy needs talents like you, but it still needs some assessment."

Xingluo breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that although his strength was not strong, cursed objects seemed to be highly valued in this level of the abyss.

"But you still need to take one last assessment, a written test to test your theoretical level." Xingluo entered the assessment room. It was pitch black at first, and then magic lights began to light up. Although it was in the abyss, it was very bright.

After Xingluo entered, he found that the place was already full of strange creatures, which was rare in the main material plane. Xingluo did not say much, but followed a strange creature to a seat. After a while, the place became quiet. Xingluo looked up and found that the person standing in the middle was a terrifying demon. A powerful aura permeated. Xingluo sensed it slightly and it should be a demon above the grand mage level.

"Quiet!" The voice was not loud, but it reached everyone's ears. Xingluo also heard it very clearly, and it was standard devil language.

"Everyone present here today has passed the selection process. If you can pass the next assessment, you can officially join the Abyss Society."

Xingluo didn't know how these people passed the previous exams, but without exception they were all at the magician level or above. Xingluo also concealed the magic fluctuations in his body. After all, he didn't want to expose his identity as a high-level magician. There were special testing instruments added before, so it was useless for him to hide it. But now after directly covering it with mental power, these people could not know Xingluo's specific situation.
