Chapter 24: Prisoners of the Undersea Dragon Palace



In the deep sea, the two of them sank down, hugging each other.

For the monks, lack of oxygen is not a problem.

As long as the fasting period is over, the body can be self-sufficient through internal circulation and does not need to exchange anything with the outside world to maintain life.

But this does not mean that one can dive into the deep sea without dying, because the higher the depth, the greater the water pressure, and the monk's body will be crushed into a meat pie by the huge force...

However, about quarter of an hour later, Luo Yan was surprised to find that the surrounding water pressure did not increase at all.

Um?

He thought about it for a moment and then came to his senses.

The so-called buoyancy is essentially caused by the different water pressures above and below an object.

If this sea water doesn't even have buoyancy, how can there be water pressure?

He fell into a state of long thought, while Shi Liuli in his arms closed his eyes, his eyelashes trembling slightly.

She thought she was dead, so she hugged Luo Yan motionlessly, waiting for death to come in fear.

After waiting for two quarters of an hour and still not dying, he finally lost his patience and opened his eyes hard.

It’s so dark.

Diving to this depth, the visibility around was so dim that nothing could be seen clearly, and one could only sense Luo Yan's presence through the most basic sense of touch.

However, the surrounding sea water was so cold that her skin was almost numb, so she had to hold Luo Yan tightly.

Suddenly, something seemed to entangle the two of them.

That thing seemed to be water grass or silk. It wrapped around the two people from the outside and then dragged them downwards.

Luo Yan tried to struggle for a while, but found that he couldn't get free at all... Not only that, the true energy in his body seemed to be stagnant and couldn't circulate at all.

About a quarter of an hour later, light gradually appeared below.

All I saw floating in the abyss below was a brightly lit, magnificent palace.

Crystals serve as walls, corals serve as trees, clam pearls serve as candles, and saliva creates smoke, making the entire palace look like a fairyland or the palace of the Dragon King in myths and legends. It is so beautiful.

What tied the two people up was a thin rope that didn't look like it was woven from plant fibers, but rather like some kind of animal tendon...

The two were dragged into the Dragon Palace, where the palace door quietly opened, revealing a layer of glittering water film.

The body passed through the water film without any hindrance, and the surroundings immediately felt lighter.

The cold, strange sea water that sealed one's cultivation and seemed to make it hard to breathe was all isolated outside the water film, and at this time, even the clothes of the two were not wet.

Shi Liuli trembled and hugged Luo Yan's arm nervously.

Luo Yan calmly looked around and asked Kunlun Mirror in his sea of ​​consciousness:

"Where's my Future Warrior? Where's my strategy?"

"What kind of strategy do you want?" Kunlun Jing was puzzled. "I don't see any death calamity, and I can't stare at your future all day long."

"No death calamity, right?" Luo Yan immediately pretended to be ready to jump, "Then I'll just sweep here!"

"Be careful." Kunlun Jing didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "The so-called death calamity refers to a life-and-death crisis that you can't escape without external interference! Don't act recklessly and create a death calamity out of nothing!"

"Got it." Luo Yan breathed a sigh of relief and said gratefully, "A Jing is still good to me."

In other words, if I face a fate where I am 100% certain to die, Jing will remind me, right?

"Hmph." Kunlun Mirror was not fooled at all. "I am just your tool anyway. If I am useful, I am 'A Mirror'. If I am useless, I am 'Broken Mirror'... Hmph! Just continue to hug your Miss Shi."

It sank into its sea of ​​consciousness and stopped talking. No matter how Luo Yan called it, it would not open its mouth. So the only sound in its ears was Qingping Sword's low chuckle.

Luo Yan drew his attention back to reality and saw a long corridor in front of him. The doors on both sides were closed, and only the big door at the end was open. The meaning was self-evident.

So Luo Yan planned to move forward to explore, but Miss Shi hugged his arm and wouldn't let him go.

"Sister, what's wrong with you?" Luo Yan asked.

Shi Liuli didn't say anything, but just shrank his neck and shook his head.

"Don't be afraid, Senior Sister." Luo Yan comforted her, "Since the owner of this place brought us in safely, I think he has no intention of harming us."

Shi Liuli still shook his head, looking genuinely frightened.

"Come with me, be obedient!" Luo Yan tried to persuade her left and right but it was of no use, so he simply lifted her chin with his hand and pretended to kiss her on the lips.

Shi Liuli was so scared that she hurriedly let go of his arm and stepped back a few steps like a little rabbit. Then she suddenly realized that she was in an unfamiliar environment full of dangers. She quickly jumped over and hugged his arm again, glaring at him and gnashing her teeth, revealing a vicious look that said, "If you tease me again, I'm going to bite you to death."

Luo Yan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Fortunately, Miss Shi finally regained her unique spirit, so he patiently persuaded her again:

"Let's go, don't keep them waiting."

Shi Liuli hesitated for a while before asking in a low voice:

"Is this the Dragon Palace?"

"Not all palaces built on the seabed belong to the Dragon Palace." Luo Yan laughed and analyzed, "Look at the width of this corridor and the height of the door. It is obvious that the people active here are people, not some big monsters..."

Before he finished speaking, he heard a long voice coming from the front:

"That may not be the case. After all, big monsters can transform, right?"

Luo Yan was silent for a moment, then pulled Shi Liuli forward.

As soon as I passed through the door at the end of the corridor, I saw a handsome man in white leaning on the throne in the spacious and magnificent main hall, looking over lazily.

The other person had a handsome face, not like that of an ordinary person. He had a full forehead, a high nose bridge, narrow eyes, and an expression on his face... He was very similar to Tu Shanjun whom I had seen in the Shushan Demon Locking Tower before.

"Greetings, Your Majesty." Luo Yan hurriedly bowed and said.

With his experience with Tu Shanjun, Luo Yan already knew how to deal with these big monsters:

The meeting must be interesting to attract the other person's attention; in the middle, you must be smart to impress the other person; and in the end, you must be useful so that the other person will not be reluctant to kill you.

"Why do you call me 'Great King'?" The man in white was fooled and laughed. "Interesting. Others call me True Lord or Your Excellency, but you call me 'Great King'? Do I look like the leader of some mountain stronghold?"

"He is not a bandit leader, but a real dragon." Luo Yan immediately took advantage of the situation and said, "If he is not the king of destiny, how can he sit on the throne?"

The man in white hesitated for a moment, then tapped the armrest of the throne with his slender fingers and continued:

"Sitting on the throne does that mean I am the king? Maybe the king is not here, so I am just sitting there casually."

Luo Yan smiled without saying anything, showing an expression of great confidence and needlessness of explanation.

"Whatever." The man in white sighed and said, "You are quite smart. You can actually tell that I am a dragon."

Upon hearing this, Shi Liuli couldn't help but hold Luo Yan's arm a little tighter, and heard the man in white continue to say:

"But I'm not some Dragon King, and this isn't some palace."

"I am just a prisoner imprisoned here."
