at the same time.
Fang Xin and Qiao Xiaoxue had left Black Dragon Pool and were preparing to head north when the Black Scale Dragon Armor suddenly appeared.
The ominous aura was directed towards the five o'clock position.
"Do you want us to go this way?" Fang Xin asked casually.
The breath flowed gently, as if someone were nodding.
Qiao Xiaoxue's eyes flashed with surprise as she touched the black-scaled dragon armor. "What amazing armor!"
"It's a bit strange." Fang Xin looked at the five o'clock direction, his brows furrowed slightly. "This direction gives me a bad feeling; I have to be careful."
"Um!"
The two of them, one in front and one behind, explored forward.
Time flies, and half a day has passed in the blink of an eye.
"What a difficult road." Qiao Xiaoxue was drenched in sweat and panting heavily.
"Let's find a place to rest." Fang Xin wiped away his sweat, but his eyes caught sight of a smooth rock not far away. "Let's rest over there."
Qiao Xiaoxue hummed in agreement and walked towards the large rock.
As soon as I sat down, a ghostly wailing sound echoed in my mind, which was extremely eerie.
"ah!"
Fang Xin was very worried and rushed over, "What's wrong?"
Pointing at the stone, fear flashed in his eyes, "It will make a ghostly wailing sound."
"I'll give it a try!"
He sat down slowly, and no ghostly wailing sound came out.
"No?"
I tried several different spots, but no strange noises came out.
"Try again!"
After taking several deep breaths, Qiao Xiaoxue slowly sat down, and the ghostly wailing sound, even more eerie than before, rang out again.
Terrified, she turned pale and screamed repeatedly.
Fang Xin quickly hugged her and patted her back gently, "It's okay, it's okay."
A few seconds later, Qiao Xiaoxue snapped out of her shock and said, "Husband, hold me and sit down."
"oh!"
He slowly sat down on the rock.
A green aura emanated from the center of the stone and rushed rapidly toward Qiao Xiaoxue.
hold head high!
A dragon's roar resounded, and the black-scaled dragon armor appeared, instantly shattering the green aura.
“If I’m not mistaken, it’s this thing causing the trouble.” Pointing to the side, “Go sit over there and try it.”
After making ample mental preparations, Qiao Xiaoxue slowly moved over.
"Huh, there really are no more strange noises."
With my heart finally at ease, I lay down on the large rock, recovering my almost depleted strength.
Fang Xin dared not completely relax, and would look around every now and then.
Time flies, and the two of them recovered completely.
"Let's go, let's keep going."
As Qiao Xiaoxue stood up, she felt something hard under her feet and looked down to check.
"It looks like a trap!"
"Don't move, step back, I'll do it."
Fang Xin frowned and shielded Qiao Xiaoxue behind him.
He slowly parted the nearby weeds with his longsword, revealing rusty iron chains.
I tried pulling on the chain, but it didn't budge.
"I don't believe it."
He put down his longsword, gripped the iron chains with both hands, and began to circulate the Tai Xuan Scripture, from which a faint clicking sound came from below.
"I'll help you!"
Qiao Xiaoxue also grabbed the iron chain and pulled it outwards with all her might.
The sound grew louder and louder.
Suddenly, the large rock split open from the center, releasing a desolate and ancient aura.
"Stabilize the chains, I'll go take a look." Fang Xin's eyes flashed with worry as he slowly approached.
A chilling aura washed over me.
The Black Scale Dragon Armor automatically blocked the attack.
"What a strange place." His brows furrowed deeper as he took out a light and looked down.
There was nothing else but a row of stairs that seemed to stretch endlessly.
"Honey, I can't hold on much longer." Qiao Xiaoxue's body was moving forward.
With a few quick movements, he grabbed the iron chain and pulled with all his might.
Click, bang!
The chain had been pulled to its limit and was completely jammed.
"Hoo hoo, I'm exhausted!" Qiao Xiaoxue's chest heaved as she fanned herself with her delicate hands, looking particularly charming.
Fang Xin was somewhat dazed, and quickly looked away, fixing his gaze on the entrance. "Should we go in?"
"Now that we've discovered it, why shouldn't we go in?"
"Alright, I'll go scout ahead first. You're not allowed to come with me."
Be careful!
Qiao Xiaoxue looked at Fang Xin's tall figure, feeling very sweet inside.
As you descend, the incline of the stairs increases, and you can only slowly make your way down by holding onto the previous step.
"Try its depth."
He took out the small stone he had prepared beforehand and threw it down.
Several seconds later, sporadic sounds came from below.
"Hiss, it's so deep!"
Immediately start climbing upwards.
"Wife, it's at least one or two thousand meters deep down there."
Qiao Xiaoxue frowned. "No matter how deep it is, it can't stump us."
"Okay, be careful."
"Okay!"
The two helped each other as they continued their descent.
Several hours later, we finally reached the ground, and I was so tired that I didn't want to move.
"There should be no danger below, resume immediately."
"good."
Qiao Xiaoxue didn't know if it was because she was too tired or for some other reason, but her eyelids soon started to droop.
I shook my head vigorously, but the weariness only grew stronger.
"Honey, hug me."
Fang Xin had just held him in his arms when a soft snore began to sound.
Looking at his wife's disheveled appearance, he gave a bitter smile, "Wife, I'm sorry you've suffered."
She lovingly stroked her beautiful hair.
In less than half a minute, my eyelids started to droop...
After they fell asleep, three green wisps of energy drifted out from afar and rushed towards the two of them.
Just as it was about to be hit, the Black Scale Dragon Armor suddenly appeared, unleashing a terrifying aura that instantly extinguished the three streams of green energy.
Despite the loud noise, the two did not wake up.
The black-scaled dragon armor emitted a yellow glow, protecting them...
Several hours later.
At the farthest point of the stairs, a small point of light suddenly appeared.
The light spot grew larger and larger, transforming into a teleportation portal.
A man completely encased in mecha armor rushed out at high speed.
"This is?"
Looking around, his gaze settled on the black-scaled dragon armor. "What the hell is this?"
After discarding his tattered mecha, revealing his true form, he was none other than Li Tianyi, who had returned from the River Styx.
A powerful flashlight shone into the distance, and someone exclaimed in surprise, "Brother Xin, sister-in-law?"
I panicked and rushed over.
He checked her breathing, and his heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally settled down. "Brother Xin, Brother Xin!"
Fang Xin showed no signs of regaining consciousness.
They quickly checked each other's pulses. "Both are breathing normally and have no injuries, so why aren't they waking up?"
He quickly found the antidote pills specially made by Su Wanruo and forced her to swallow them.
Qiao Xiaoxue's eyelashes fluttered.
"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law."
The finger twitched again.
Li Tianyi frowned, feeling agitated and unable to process what he was going to do.
"Dogecoin system, come out and explain why they're doing this?"
The system appeared in a rather cheeky manner.
"Judging from the current situation, their consciousness has entered a self-protective state. External forces are completely ineffective in awakening them; only they themselves can do it." The system paused for a moment. "However, if you can find something extremely cold, you can help them return their consciousness to their original bodies."
Is it here?
"Yes, but we don't know its exact location."
Li Tianyi's expression turned even uglier.
“I’m not comfortable leaving them both here.”
"There's no need to worry. They're protected by treasure; they'll be fine." The system pointed to the darkest spot. "The chances are better here. Let's go search!"
"good!"
Li Tianyi took out several high-powered flashlights, illuminating the surroundings as if it were daytime.
From time to time, weathered animal bones appeared on both wings.
In the past, I would have been very suspicious, but after my experience with the River Styx, I can now completely ignore these frightening scenes.
Soon, a huge animal skeleton appeared directly in front of them.
"Judging from the outline, it should be a creature of the dinosaur type, but we don't know exactly what kind of dinosaur it is."
His gaze moved, finally settling on the skull of the beast.
There was a hole the size of an egg that went straight through to the lower jaw.
"What kind of creature is so powerful that it can kill with a single blow?"
He kept thinking about ways to kill it.
Suddenly, a method that seemed almost impossible to achieve flashed before my eyes.
He leaped up with all his might, concentrating all his strength in his right palm, and flicked a pebble.
Boom!
The stone was embedded in the bone.
"Even with my Martial Venerable strength, I couldn't completely pierce its skull, which shows how powerful this creature was when it was alive." He frowned slightly, shook his head, and smiled bitterly. "My strength is still too weak. The one who killed this creature must be at least at the Martial Emperor realm, or even the Martial God realm."
Feeling inwardly amazed, I didn't pay much attention to my surroundings.
A head the size of a fist peeked out from the shadows, its eyes flashing with intense killing intent.
Li Tianyi turned around abruptly, but saw nothing.
"This place is eerie, leave as soon as possible."
Speed up and move forward...
Passing through the area of white bones, the mist ahead was swirling and the air was bitterly cold.
"Luckily, I came prepared."
Put on the mech suit and activate the constant temperature mode.
As his body warmed up, his mind became sharper, and he used the mecha to analyze what was inside.
A large amount of data was returned, but none of it was useful.
"Over-reliance on electronic products can cause even our instincts to be forgotten."
Turn off the mech's scanning function and carefully perceive any changes in the surrounding area.
The fog grew thicker and thicker, reducing visibility to less than three meters.
After crossing the flat road, you will reach a turning point.
As soon as they got close, a gray figure rushed towards them.
He dodged to the side and unleashed a blade of light.
The gray figure flashed and appeared beside him, exhaling an extremely cold breath.
Ice formed on the surface of the mecha.
The freeze was spreading rapidly, and the mech was damaged.
Without the protection of the mechs, one realizes just how cold this place is; even those at the Martial Venerable realm find it hard to withstand.
"Greedy humans, die!"
The gray figure darted about rapidly, leaving countless afterimages in the vicinity.
The tiny claws landed one after the other, their shadows, several meters long, completely sealing off the surroundings.
Fear flashed across Li Tianyi's eyes. He wielded the Breaking Army sword with all his might, using its blade light to protect himself.
Boom!
The gray figure was blasted away.
Li Tianyi's upper body swayed slightly. "What a powerful creature."
A whistle rang out.
Three smaller creatures appeared.
"Ding! A seventh-tier advanced peak creature, the Nine Netherworld Fox, has been detected. It is a social creature and is skilled in coordinated attacks!"
"Ding! Friendly reminder: A large group of Netherworld Foxes is on their way. Please escape as soon as possible."
Li Tianyi's expression was solemn as he swiftly unleashed a blade of light hundreds of meters long.
He kept using the God of Slaughter's Slash to create distance.
"You think you can leave now that you're in?"
"Seal off all sides."
The Nine Nether Fox was very fast, and the corner was completely blocked.
"The greedy shall die!"
Eight claw shadows fell.
"Holy crap!"
He unleashed a slash of blade light, constantly dodging and weaving through the gaps in the attacks.
A look of hatred flashed in the eyes of the Nine Nether Fox leader. "All members, immediately move closer to me and annihilate the intruders."
A shrill cry rang out, and dozens of Netherworld Foxes were approaching...
