The handles and pedals are very flexible. They didn't have much effort to let the drilling machine work and drill down to the ground at an angle of 45 degrees. After a while, the drilling machine went deep into the desert. The special design of the machine surface allows the excavated soil to be transferred to the back along the surface of the machine, allowing the soil to flow back and forth between the machine. In this way, the cave behind the drilling machine is re-enclosed by the soil when it advances, which not only solves the problem of transporting soil, but also makes the forward speed very fast.

Especially in the loose quicksand layer, Liang used no strength to use them, and the drilling machine moved forward quickly, and it advanced more than 100 meters in less than a quarter of an hour. At this time, Hongluan reminded them that if the depth was not enough, they should continue to drill down 200 meters. They increased the angle and continued to go down. After passing through the quicksand layer, they passed through the fixed soil. The resistance was much greater. When they encountered rocks, they needed to speed up their pace and stomp hard. However, the difficulty was still within a controllable range, just like they were running in the park for morning exercises, with a little breath but not tired.

There was still some time before his destination. Xuanyuan took advantage of this time to introduce the detailed special skills of the Qiankun Cauldron to Liang Yong. After hearing Xuanyuan's introduction, Liang Yong was not even more surprised. When he obtained the Soul Locking Bead, Xiaoyanzi told him the rules and allusions of the cultivation world. The Soul Locking Bead is a magic weapon left by an immortal, and the Qiankun Cauldron is also a magic weapon left by an immortal, but it is of high level and belongs to the top-grade immortal weapon. It is naturally full of magical features when used in the mortal world.

Cultivation and technology are two parallel systems, which allow humans to improve their ability to conquer nature. However, cultivation focuses on the cultivation of the human body, while technology uses the forging of matter to create various tools for humans to use. When the two systems develop to a certain stage, they will have a common understanding. The magic tools refined by cultivators are actually the result of material changes, and the development of technology can also help cultivators use tools and medicines to increase the speed of cultivating.**

As an ancient wise human, Xuanyuan had merged his soul with the Qiankun Cauldron. After some study, he realized the meaning of various talismans on the Qiankun Cauldron, and showed the various magical specialties of the Qiankun Cauldron. It was not difficult to temporarily transform the Qiankun Cauldron into a drilling machine with Hongluan. The top-grade immortal weapon can change thousands of times and has powerful energy.

Liang Yong knew that the Qiankun Cauldron was used by Xuanyuan, and there was no regret. Although the immortal weapon was good, it could not play a one-tenth of the role in his hands. It was obvious that Xuanyuan would control it, which helped him more. When the Soul Locking Pearl was taken away by Hongluan, he did not feel regretful at all. In his opinion, this was the best use of everything, just like his usual peaceful style of dealing with things. Although he now has many companies, he left them all to his friends to take care of them. He was happy and became a hand-off manager.

After encouraging Xuanyuan, Liang Yong's mind returned to the bad situation he was about to face again. He was already very close to the core of the underground explosion, but there was no news about Shu Yan. Hongluan could not judge the situation inside without seeing the core scene. Shu Yan's life and death were uncertain like a huge rock pressing on Liang Yong's heart, making him feel uncomfortable from time to time.

Suddenly, everyone's feet sank, the pedal became heavier, and it took effort to step on it, and the drilling machine's speed suddenly slowed down.

Liang Yong didn't know what happened, so he stepped on the pedal hard, but the speed of his progress did not increase much, and it took him less than ten centimeters in several minutes.

"Master, don't worry, we are penetrating the outer metal shell, which is as hard as the metal shell in the big pit. Although the thickness has been weakened, it also requires strong energy to pass through." Hongluan explained in time, which made everyone excited and nervous.

Liang Yong accelerated the stomping speed, and each of them was sweating and focused. After working hard for a quarter of an hour, he suddenly felt lighter. The drill bit finally drilled the hard surgical operation through. Liang Yong found that the shell was more than one meter thick. Hong Luan also said that it was thinner here, so the metal shell in which big pit was several meters thick.

But before the three of them were happy, they felt the drilling machine tremble violently and was pushed back by a force. They retreated several meters before being blocked by the soil layer. Through the observation hole, they saw a hot gas whizzing out from the hole they drilled. It was this gas that pushed the drilling machine back. When the gas encountered the surrounding soil, it made a hissing sound, just like a frying thing in the oil pan. Seeing the soil layer burned red and peeling off layer by layer, and in the end there was no dust left.

Liang Yong and the other three were shocked. The temperature was higher than that of the steelmaking furnace. Fortunately, they were sitting in the top-grade immortal weapon Qiankun Cauldron, otherwise they would have been a wisp of blue smoke at this time, and they were roasted by the scorching gas.

After waiting for three minutes, the gas weakened, and the internal and external pressure was balanced. Hongluan said with gratitude: "There was a huge cavity where we drilled through, which saved us a lot of time. Come in quickly." She was right. The metal shell was not full of cavity, but most of it was lava that continued to cool. Although it was not as hard as the shell, it was also very solid. It took some effort to drill through, which would waste a lot of time.

The drilling machine entered the metal shell again, and everyone was stunned by the scene in front of them. It was a completely dazzling and red ocean. The hot gas flowed everywhere and whistled. The dome was red rocks, and the red rocks were under their feet. The rocks naturally did not be red, but the hot temperature made them turn into red. The drilling machine glided on it, and it felt very relaxed. These rocks were as soft as mud, and they sank as soon as they were pressed.

Looking at it, this is a space of 1,000 meters, surrounded by fiery red. Liang Yong and the three of them were confused and didn't know where to move forward. Is this still the beautiful and advanced base before? It's like entering a crater.

Hongluan instructed Xuanyuan to pull a long detection pointer deep into the lava. After probing in every direction, Hongluan instructed: "This is not the core area yet. We continue to drill downward along the east side!"

Liang Yong didn't understand why she had to go to the core area. Through Hongluan's explanation, he realized that when designing the base, it was considered that if the base exploded, it would be the most terrifying nuclear explosion. This place would become a real purgatory on earth, and none of the staff inside would be spared. Therefore, during construction, a sturdy escape capsule that could withstand nuclear explosions was specially built. The escape capsule was not large in size, only a dozen cubic meters, but it could be used for three people to hide in it. The stored living supplies can guarantee the amount of daily use. At the same time, the base's black box is also here, and many important scientific and technological achievements are backed up in the black box.

As long as people outside can dig out the lifesaving compartment within 12 hours after the explosion, they can help their lives and get a black box to minimize the losses. Hongluan guessed that Shu Yan and the others were most likely to hide in the lifesaving compartment, so they must go to the core area as soon as possible to dig out the lifesaving compartment and beg for sharing.
