Chapter 532: Creatures in the Cocoon
Xia Xianyue couldn't help but look at John. Although John had the title of saint before, within the six major families, the title was just a child's joke.
Not to mention Xia Xianyue and his generation, even among John's peers, there are perverts like Lan Shi, so it would never be John's turn.
John now actually received praise from Dugu Ge, which made Xia Xianyue look at John carefully.
John stood in the arena like an ancient Greek statue. He was just standing there, but he gave people a sense of holy beauty. His aura was indeed very strong. It should be epic, but Xia Xianyue couldn't tell where the horror that Dugu Ge said came from.
"Why do you say that?" Xia Xinyue walked to Dugu Ge and asked with some confusion.
"He has a special power." Dugu Ge looked at John and said.
"Special?" Xia Xianyue didn't understand what Dugu Ge meant by special.
Many Qi techniques, Qi skills, pets, destinies, and souls can be called special powers, but this description is too general.
Dugu Ge said, "Xia Liu and I once entered a dimension together. In that dimension, we found a black cocoon. Did he tell you about this?"
"No, but I have heard of this kind of cocoon. The six major families have similar records. In some mysterious dimensional areas, there will be some similar cocoons, but there will be powerful mythical creatures near those cocoons. No one knows what is inside the cocoon. Most people speculate that it might be the descendant of the mythical creature." Xia Xian said.
"No, that's definitely not the offspring of an ordinary mythical creature. Xia Liu and I once cracked a black cocoon, revealing a tiny crack and the creature inside. It was completely different from the mythical creature guarding it, a far more terrifying existence." Dugu Ge said, his gaze settling on John. He confirmed, "John has a similar aura, but it's a little different."
"What kind of creature is that? Why has my brother never mentioned it?" Xia Xinyue asked.
"I don't know. We originally thought that with our own strength and the help of our mythical pets, even if we couldn't defeat the mythical creature guarding the black cocoon, it should be easy to remove the black cocoon. In the end, we used all our strength, but we only cracked the black cocoon a little, and were almost killed by the creature inside the black cocoon. And the creature inside the black cocoon just waved its hand." Dugu Ge paused and said, "Xia Liu was seriously injured. We can say that we had a narrow escape. He was kept in my house for nearly six months before he was almost fully recovered."
"I remember one year my brother went to the South District. He originally planned to travel for a month or two, but he didn't come back for almost a year. I think it was that time, right?" Xia Xianyue paused before continuing, "Ever since he came back, my brother's been like a completely different person. He's been researching stuff every day, like he's been so secretive. I asked him, but he wouldn't tell me what he was looking for."
"It should have been that time. Anyone who has seen such a terrifying creature would not remain indifferent. But it was too dangerous. He probably didn't want you to worry, and was afraid that you would stop him and not let him go again, so he didn't tell you." Dugu Ge said.
"You said that John has the aura of that creature?" Xia Xianyue looked at John with a strange look in her eyes.
"Yes, but it's a little different, and I can't be sure if it's the same aura." Dugu Ge said.
"What are you talking about?" A voice came from behind, and a man in a robe and long hair walked over.
The man had an ordinary appearance, but his eyes were exceptionally beautiful. His eyes were not big, nor did he have double eyelids, but the lines were particularly beautiful.
"Zhang Chunqiu, how could you bear to come out?" Dugu Ge looked at the man who came over with some surprise.
Dugu Ge had never been defeated when he challenged the young masters from the six major families, but there were also people who could tie with him, and Zhang Chunqiu was one of them.
In that era, the six major families were full of geniuses and were known as the golden generation. Perhaps that generation had used up all the luck of the six major families. Taking four or five years as a gap, the people born after that time were fewer and fewer who could stand on their own. By the time of John and his generation, only Lan Shi stood out, and the others were a little bit inferior.
On the contrary, outside the six major families, many geniuses emerged who amazed the times.
"The An family asked us, the Zhang family, to come as witnesses, so I came." Zhang Chunqiu came to Dugu Ge and sat down on the stands next to him.
"For such a small matter as being a witness, Zhang Xiao didn't come, but asked you to come instead?" Dugu Ge naturally didn't believe it.
"The world has been in turmoil recently. The Demon Tomb is ready to move, and the Black Cube has appeared. I always feel like something big is about to happen, so I came out to take a look." Zhang Chunqiu said.
"Is there a problem with the Demonic Tomb?" Dugu Ge and Xia Xinyue were both shocked.
They all knew very well that the Zhang family had guarded the Demon Tomb for so many years, and several generations of people were buried there, which prevented the creatures in the Demon Tomb from causing harm to the world.
If something really went wrong with the Demonic Tomb, it would definitely not just be the Zhang family that would be affected.
"It's stable now, so I can go out for a walk." Zhang Chunqiu's eyes fell on John, and his beautiful eyes narrowed slightly: "This John, the things he has are very interesting."
"You figured it out too?" Dugu Ge sat down next to Zhang Chunqiu.
Xia Xianyue also sat down. Compared with Zhang Chunqiu and Dugu Ge's generation, her talent and strength were not inferior, but her experience was far behind.
At the time when Zhang Chunqiu and his group were together, there were very few mythical companion eggs among the six major families. Unlike now, they could not directly give Xia Xianyue a mythical companion egg.
At that time, if they wanted the mythical companion egg, they could only venture directly into the dimensional realm, which created a gap in experience.
However, their generation was also the one that suffered the most tragic deaths, and very few were able to bring back the mythical creatures alive.
"I just wanted to stop by and take a look, but I didn't expect to see such an interesting thing. However, his opponent is a bit weak, and I don't know if I can force that thing out." Zhang Chunqiu said.
"That may not be the case. Although I don't know how terrifying that thing is, John's opponent is definitely not weak." Xia Xinyue said.
Zhang Chunqiu smiled slightly: "Zhou Wen should be Wang Mingyuan's student, right? Come to think of it, I really wanted to meet Wang Mingyuan, but unfortunately I missed the opportunity."
Dugu Ge said: "He can defeat Lan Shi, so he is certainly not weak, but he has limited time to grow. I don't know what level he has reached now."
While the three were talking, Zhou Wen walked from the entrance into the venue, and everyone couldn't help but look over.
