Ye Chenfeng and his companions, after setting the ancient city ablaze, had once again started running. They did not wish to linger any longer beneath this strange land. Having encountered Bloodsucking Tendrils and a Giant Flame Scorpion successively, they gave up the idea of exploring further underground, realizing their strength was still far too inadequate, and they weren't always going to be the luckiest.

This discovery reassured Ye Chenfeng, proving they were racing upwards—if they could just reach the end of this path, they should be able to leave the desert's depths successfully.
