Chapter 182: , Terumi Mei

At this moment, as time passed, the sky gradually darkened, and the time was inching closer to night.

Against the backdrop of the night, the pitch-black cave entrance was like the wide-open mouth of a monster, as if it were about to devour someone.

"Whoosh~"

A breeze blew past, and a buzzing sound like the wailing of ghosts immediately came from the cave entrance.

This strange sound also made Terumi Mei's delicate body tremble involuntarily.

Looking at the pitch-black cave, this fearless female ninja couldn't help but have a flash of hesitation in her eyes at this moment.

"It should be here."

"The enemy is in the dark and we are in the light; remember not to stray too far from me."

About to enter a dangerous place, Mizunuki Ryosuke instructed the two team members beside him.

Hearing this, the two nodded respectively.

Subsequently, the three gathered materials on the spot, made torches, and used the torches as a light source to head into the interior of the cave.

Dark, damp, and the faint sound of wind in their ears.

These were constantly shaping a terrifying atmosphere.

Inside the cave, strangely shaped stalactites and uneven, weird rocks could be seen everywhere.

The firelight cast the shadows of the three onto these strangely shaped rocks, forming a distorted shadow.

As the three continued to penetrate deeper into the cave, the sides of the cave became increasingly wider, and the space inside the cave also continued to expand.

Until later, the space inside the cave was as wide as a huge four-lane road.

After entering the cave, the squad did not maintain the previous formation, but instead had the strongest, Mizunuki Ryosuke, take the lead, Hikohiko bring up the rear, and Terumi Mei stand in the middle of the two.

Suddenly, Mizunuki Hikohiko seemed to have sensed something and shouted out to the back.

"Who's there!!"

Hikohiko's exclamation immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Mizunuki Ryosuke immediately turned around and looked in the direction of Hikohiko's gaze, and instantly saw a hazy, blurry white shadow; at first glance, this shadow looked just like a legendary ghost.

"Ahhhhh!!!!"

"Ghost!!!!"

But who would have thought, before the two could even act, Terumi Mei suddenly screamed and formed seals with her hands at an extremely fast speed.

Ryosuke could even guarantee that this was absolutely Terumi Mei's hand speed breaking her limits; in normal times, her seal-forming would never be this efficient.

Clearly, this belonged to a "potential explosion" under certain specific circumstances.

Fire Style: Phoenix Sage Fire Technique!

In an instant, five fireballs were spat out from Terumi Mei's mouth.

"Boom!!!"

The aftermath of the fireball bombardment instantly illuminated the entire cave; taking advantage of the sudden brightness, Ryosuke observed the entire cave, but ultimately found nothing.

It was as if the hazy white shadow seen before was just an illusion.

"Huff, huff, huff."

After releasing the Phoenix Sage Fire Technique, Terumi Mei stood on the spot panting, her expression still looking somewhat stiff.

"What's wrong with you, Mei?"

Seeing this situation, Mizunuki Ryosuke hurriedly asked about Terumi Mei's state.

To this, Terumi Mei hurriedly waved her hand and replied to Mizunuki Ryosuke with a stiff expression.

"Sorry, Captain, I'm fine."

Terumi Mei also knew that her behavior just now might have been a bit too extreme.

But fortunately, it was just a false alarm and no major disaster was caused. ===== CHAPTER 184 =====
