The entire passage has many traces of artificial modification. According to Lifeguard Uncle Man, this place originally didn’t have this path. It was only when Leslulu sought their help that they artificially carved out a passage leading to the depths.
As for the tunnel that the Fluffy Fire Wolfhound drilled, it’s the entrance and exit passage for Leslulu or, more precisely, Leslulu and its kind arrived at the surface through it.
Leslulu is a Spirit Beast proficient in purifying water, but it has specific habitat requirents, such as being cool, damp, and preferably quiet, making human encounters with them quite rare.
Unlike other commonly seen Spirit Beasts that purify water sources, like Qingquan Shell, Leslulu looks cute and seemingly unthreatening, yet their strength allows them to shine on the stage of Beast Tar competitions.
The reason few Beastmasters use them is simply that Leslulu is not often seen. Despite their sufficient population, they mostly appear in inaccessible places like the depths of Deepwater Cave, making it challenging for Beastmasters to choose them.
It’s rare to encounter them, so generally, they’re not considered. Regarding the Leslulu in Hot Springs Town?
Given Leslulu isn’t combative, Feng Yuan estimates that even if one or two wish to follow a Beastmaster to see the world, they’ve likely been divided up within Hot Springs Town.
With the number of staff in Hot Springs Town, these Leslulu hardly seem significant.
On the other side, urged by Veronia, the Fluffy Fire Wolfhound rushed forward. This passage, originally exclusive for Leslulu, was quite troubleso for it.
Often, it would get stuck on protruding rocks, forcing it to wriggle a bit before squeezing through.
After this experience, the Fluffy Fire Wolfhound vowed never to crawl into seemingly small caves again, even if curious!
Fortunately, by the ti Veronia arrived, the Fluffy Fire Wolfhound was near the exit, so its ordeal didn’t last long.
A fiery red cave lake appeared before the Fluffy Fire Wolfhound, and the terrifying heat nearly made it believe it had burrowed into a lava layer. But upon closer inspection, it felt the lake was peculiar.
With such ghastly heat, the fiery lake was as smooth as a mirror, without a single ripple. The Fluffy Fire Wolfhound couldn’t even determine if the lake contained water or sothing odd.
"You’d best not get close; with that thing’s temperature and energy intensity, you’d get hurt effortlessly."
Noticing the Fluffy Fire Wolfhound’s odd behavior, Veronia spoke directly, flicking her tail. The Fluffy Fire Wolfhound stepped back from the lake reluctantly and, gazing at the fiery red lake, Veronia pondered aloud.
"The energy concentration here is high, but why is there such a strange distribution of elental energy?"
"Never mind, that guy will definitely be curious."
Thinking of Feng Yuan, Veronia promptly dismissed exploring further secrets because he would undoubtedly be curious, and also, though the thing was peculiar, it seed harmless, at least not disaster-prone.
Didn’t make them wait long, Feng Yuan soon appeared at the sa place. Upon seeing Feng Yuan, the Fluffy Fire Wolfhound dashed over with tearful eyes, pawing at Veronia accusingly.
Veronia coldly eyed the Fluffy Fire Wolfhound. After so yelling, the Fluffy Fire Wolfhound shrank back, hiding behind Feng Yuan, who noticed Veronia’s odd expression and said helplessly.
"Alright, you know the Fluffy Fire Wolfhound’s personality better than anyone. Speaking of which... the Frost Dew Mushroom seems missing here."
Feng Yuan thought he might find the Frost Dew Mushroom cave when descending, but instead found Veronia and the others first.
"Frost Dew Mushroom? So that’s why this place has such strange energy."
Glancing at the fiery lake, Veronia suddenly understood why the lake contained water attribute energy mixed with a chill.
Now, it beca clear; the source of the energy must be the Frost Dew Mushroom, which was relatively potent in so ways.
Maybe Feng Yuan’s voice startled the Leslulu here. Soon, Spirit Beasts resembling jellyfish floated out from the depths of the cave.
Leslulu’s appearance resembles a jellyfish but isn’t quite the sa. While having a transparent gelatinous body and similar shape, Leslulu doesn’t just have tentacles. Its texture is jellyfish-like, but it looks more like a mushroom cap with jellyfish tentacles growing underneath.
Floating in the air, its elastic, translucent, jelly-like mushroom stem wobbles enticingly, tempting Feng Yuan to touch it.
Perhaps sensing Feng Yuan’s "malice," Leslulu didn’t approach him but instead stared at Uncle Man with big eyes.
Being a lifeguard, Uncle Man had encountered Leslulu many tis and was relatively familiar with them.
Seeing Leslulu’s gaze, Uncle Man naturally explained. Though rare for Spirit Beasts to enter through this passage, it wasn’t unheard of. The Fluffy Fire Wolfhound wasn’t the first to do so.
After Uncle Man’s explanation, Leslulu suspiciously looked at Feng Yuan and the others for a while. Leslulu, despite being a water and mysterious dual attribute Spirit Beast, could float in the air.
In other words, the air to them was akin to seawater to jellyfish, with even similar swimming postures.
Of course, these weren’t identical. Their movents weren’t completely alike.
Upon hearing there’s a Frost Dew Mushroom, Veronia curiously asked if they could visit. Though hesitant, they eventually agreed.
It wasn’t succumbing to Veronia’s pressure; they weren’t that idle. Bullying Wild Spirit Beasts would start argunts with Little Crocodile.
Leslulu didn’t really want to lead them there, simply because it’s difficult to traverse.
The fiery lake is filled with imnse fire attribute energy, yet within this fire energy, water attribute energy flows like a dragon.
These conflicting energies strangely mingled together, unnoticed without sufficient sensitivity.
The unique source of the water attribute energy naturally stems from the Frost Dew Mushroom Cave.
A stream trickles down the rock wall, dispersing into delicate streams on the rugged rocks before coursing into the chilly cave.
Gazing at the jagged stone formations ahead, Feng Yuan understood why Leslulu hesitated. The stone formations blocked the path, requiring careful navigation or finding sparsely placed stones to pass through.
"These stalactites seem even more abundant than before."
Uncle Man marvelled at the stone formations, knowing well the area but surprised by its narrower appearance.
"Earth attribute energy here causes unnatural stalactite formation, and though destruction would trigger self-recovery shortly, should we do that?"
Veronia asked, glancing at Feng Yuan, who paused and scratched his head, saying.
"Isn’t it unnecessary? Just use Subspace Walking or Space Jump?"
Though the stone formations obscured the other side’s situation, spiritual power detection revealed their limited range.
Passing through the area requires just one Space Jump. The adjacent space is spacious and unobstructed by these formations.
Feng Yuan wondered about the mystery behind the abundant earth attribute energy forming these peculiar stalactites.
Touching a stalactite, Feng Yuan found it nearly indistinguishable from ordinary natural ones, with no excessive energy inside.
"This place is indeed special."
Gazing into the depths of the Stone Bamboo Forest, Feng Yuan murmured softly, surprised to find such an interesting scene before reaching the Frost Dew Mushroom Cave.
"Veronia, could you teleport us across? Otherwise, winding through this Stone Bamboo Forest would waste quite so ti."
Looking at Veronia, Feng Yuan suggested. She nodded, also curious about what awaited them in Frost Dew Mushroom Cave, given how peculiar the Stone Bamboo Forest felt.
