In the darkness, a flash of colorful light appeared.
The dragon fox activated the glass lamp, and the candlelight inside the lamp emitted a steady light, illuminating the surrounding environment.
At this time, the two were inside the Fusang sacred tree. Under their feet was a wooden staircase that spiraled downward and extended into the invisible darkness.
"That's strange." Long Hu asked doubtfully, "There's no light in here... Why don't they install lighting?"
"Because the Golden Crow's body does not need lighting." Long Long took out the Fire Crow Tube and gently tapped the bottom of the tube. Several Fire Crows flew out of it, swooping down from the center of the spiral staircase, illuminating layer after layer of stairs.
It's all spiral staircases and there are no doors leading to anywhere else.
"Long Long, I'm a little scared." Long Hu whimpered and couldn't help but hugging Long Long's arm.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here." Long Long patted her shoulder, and suddenly she felt a soft touch on her calf.
When she looked down, she found that the little fox's tail had stretched out and was tightly wrapped around her ankle.
My goodness, when a girl is scared she would hug her lover's arm, but you not only hugged my arm, but also wrapped it with your tail?
You might as well just hang the whole fox up here, I don’t mind.
The dragon fox had no idea what Long Long was thinking at the moment. He just stared at the bottomless abyss. His legs seemed to be going weak and he could only stick to Long Long.
"Long Long, aren't you afraid?" she asked tremblingly.
"What's there to be afraid of?" Long Long hugged her and walked downstairs.
"That's right," Longhu tried hard to organize his words, "What if there's some monster hiding in the darkness...what should we do?"
If the monster is hidden, how could it possibly escape the scan of my Ajing?
Long Long naturally couldn't explain this to her, so he smiled and said:
"If there is a monster, just hide behind me in time."
"Yeah." Longhu nodded vigorously.
The two continued to move forward for a distance. The dragon fox held Long Long's arm and wrapped its tail around his legs. It seemed to slowly calm down.
"Long Long." She whispered, "It's great to have you by my side."
Long Long: ???
This little fox is so good at teasing men at such a young age. What will she be like when she grows up!
He touched the dragon fox's little head. The dragon fox was slightly startled, then stretched its head and rubbed his palm.
Not long after, the dragon fox suddenly screamed:
"Longlong!" she said in panic, "Is that a skeleton?"
Long Long followed her gaze and saw a skeleton lying on the stairs.
The humanoid skull indicated that the deceased had completely transformed before death. The slight protrusions on both sides of the forehead were typical characteristics of the dragon race.
This is a dead dragon, and it was killed in its transformed state.
Because of the long time interval, the cause of death can no longer be seen.
Long Long picked up the little fox, stepped over the skeletons and walked down, but saw more skeletons.
There are dragon creatures with bulges on their foreheads, as well as feather creatures with extended arm bones. It is obvious that fierce battles and massacres have taken place here.
Looking at the number of body parts, Long Long couldn't help but sigh.
In the world of cultivation, such large-scale wars rarely occur, and most of the time they are fights between small teams of several people.
After all, hundreds of people died in a war, which was unbearable even for the evil sect that recruited many disciples.
Compared with the human race, which is smaller in number but more united, the demon race, although with more cultivators, is like a bloated and frivolous fat man.
The five major races, the Horned, Scaled, Insect, Feathered and Hairy, are hostile to each other, and the major races are not united either. No wonder they were driven to the Eastern Emperor Realm by humans.
Carefully passing through a large amount of wreckage, Long Long pulled Long Hu forward and finally reached the bottom of the passage.
It looked like a cemetery here: a large number of bones were piled up in the corners of the room, and there were dried dark red marks on the floor.
An archway that is exactly the same as the one deep in the Fire Element Cave stands quietly in the center of the room.
"Is this the exit to the outer world of the secret realm?" Dragon Fox murmured.
"Almost." Long Long replied, and took the Nine Crows Fiery Sun Stone and the Golden Crow True Fire Fan, ready to activate the magic circle.
"Wait, Long Long." Long Hu's pretty face showed a worried look, and asked anxiously, "What should we do if this formation teleports us to a strange place again?"
"There is no other way." Long Long simply replied, "This is the so-called one-way street of life. Even if the future is unknown, we have no choice but to move forward."
Longhu was speechless.
Indeed, if the formation is not activated, we will continue to be trapped here.
The two of them... had no other choice.
Soon, Long Long restarted the formation according to the previous operations.
Compared to the almost earthquake-like changes in the Fire Yuan Cave, the magic circle was opened very quietly this time.
The patterns on the floor lit up slightly, and the image in the arch was slightly distorted. This was a signal that the space channel had been connected.
"Let's go." Long Long took a deep breath and said.
Even if there are monsters on the opposite side, we can only draw our swords and fight them.
Just as he was about to take a step forward, the little fox grabbed his hand from the side, his face full of concern and worry.
So Long Long smiled at her comfortingly, took Longhu by the hand and walked into the portal together, letting his body be swallowed by the teleportation formation.
…
"Dragon Fox."
"Um?"
"Is it too late for us to retreat back to the secret realm of the Fusang sacred tree now?" Long Long asked solemnly.
"I'm afraid... it's too late." Longhu said in a trembling voice.
In front of the two people, both the air and the sea were occupied by a large number of huge blue dragons.
A pair of huge golden vertical pupils stared at Long Long and Long Hu, and the overwhelming dragon power pressed towards the two of them.
Then nothing happened.
The strength of dragon power depends on the rank of its bloodline, and the bloodlines of Long Long and Long Hu can be traced back to the immortal-level Yinglong.
Therefore, when the dragon power released by the many blue dragons present fell on these two people, it was as if they were simply being the center of attention. Apart from feeling a little uncomfortable, they did not have any reaction.
Soon, the blue dragons also realized this.
The hostile and vigilant gaze turned into a look of astonishment and suspicion.
"You..." A transformed monk walked out from behind the blue dragon. He was wearing a green Taoist robe and had a slightly protruding forehead. He asked seriously, "Are you also from the dragon clan?"
"We are the dragon clan." Long Long's mind moved slightly, and he said quickly, "We all have dragon bloodline!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of the many blue dragons present suddenly changed!
To be able to withstand the might of so many dragons, the opponent's bloodline rank must be incredibly high, and it is likely to be even at the ancestor level!
However, among the descendants left by their Canglong clan's ancestor, there has never been such a pair of man and woman?
Could it be that... the ancestor had an affair? ! !
