Upon hearing this sound, Wu Liang was nearly scared to death. He stammered, "Could it be a giant rice dumpling? A thousand-year-old one, no, at least a ten-thousand-year-old one?"
He frequented tombs and would occasionally encounter corpses that had turned into zombies. The tombs he chose meant that the deceased were no ordinary people in life, so once they turned into zombies, they were often far more powerful than cultivators.
Those monsters exist between life and death, their death energy and corpse energy combined with the primordial energy of heaven and earth, often forming some special creatures.
Every time he encountered something like this in a tomb, it was a near-death experience.
At most, you might encounter a thousand-year-old zombie in those ancient tombs, but this place is the most mysterious and unknowable place in the world. Who knows what kind of terrifying beings are inside? If you were to turn into a zombie, you would definitely be doomed.
Even the Golden Crow Prince was starting to get nervous: "Father, I think Wu Liang makes some sense. As the saying goes, a wise man doesn't stand under a dangerous wall. Let's get away from here first and then make a more careful plan."
The Demon Emperor said calmly, "It's alright, I'd like to go and see what's going on up ahead."
He had only a few days left to live, so he was very cautious in his actions, but he had just replenished three years of his lifespan at the Spirit Spring, so he was much more confident.
When a dying person is suddenly given a second chance at life, he will have more aspirations.
Even if he were the Demon Emperor, finding an unknown place even once in his life would be an incredible stroke of luck. He couldn't waste this opportunity; he had to find the secret to immortality here.
So he resolutely stepped into the mist ahead, and the ethereal voice rang out again: "Very good, worthy of having the blood of the Golden Crow, you are indeed courageous."
Wu Liang and the Golden Crow Prince were both shocked. The beings in this unknown land actually knew about the Golden Crow bloodline?
The Demon Emperor frowned slightly: "Who exactly are you?"
"Just come..." The voice from afar seemed to be filled with the devil's temptation.
The Demon Emperor sneered, "Playing tricks!"
With a flick of his sleeve, a powerful surge of energy erupted, dispersing the thick fog in front of him to both sides. In the distance, he could see a tall mountain directly ahead, its grandeur no less imposing than the Feather Mountain he had just encountered.
The Golden Crow Prince hurriedly came to his side and said, "Father, that voice is too strange, we must be careful."
The Demon Emperor said calmly, "It's alright. The Feather Mountain just now gave me a feeling of unease, but this mountain is not unusual. On the contrary, it feels somewhat close to me. Perhaps there is some great opportunity here."
Moreover, taking some risks is worthwhile for the sake of immortality.
Wu Liang secretly groaned, "You may feel close to me, but I feel it's dangerous. Can I not go?"
However, thinking of the Demon Emperor's ruthlessness, he still didn't dare to say it and could only follow with a long face.
Meanwhile, on the other side, Zuan and his group were even more nervous than him, because at this moment, those huge tentacles were slowly moving around them.
The Great Luo of All Worlds
At such close range, one could clearly see the dense array of suckers on the tentacles. Each sucker seemed to have a small hole, constantly secreting mucus, making the tentacles slippery all over. No wonder Zu Quan's all-out slash hadn't even scratched his skin.
Moreover, the group could clearly smell the disgusting, fishy odor emanating from the tentacles. The women, feeling nauseous and wanting to vomit, turned their heads away and buried their faces in Zu An's chest.
Zuan was on the verge of tears. He found the smell disgusting too. Where could he hide?
Can I bury my head in your chests?
Of course, this is just a thought; with so many people involved, he wouldn't dare put it into practice.
Zuan focused more on guarding against the tentacles. He subtly moved his position according to their movements, otherwise, even if the siren "couldn't see" them, it would still notice something was wrong if the tentacles touched them.
Fortunately, the "dark stealth" skill proved very reliable, and the giant octopus siren ultimately failed to detect their presence.
After wandering around the area for a while, the giant octopus left dejectedly.
It came quickly and left just as quickly.
Before long, the group could no longer see it.
However, because its strength was so great, and they were worried that it was just a feint, the group did not rush to move and remained motionless in place.
With the octopus monster gone, the situation was no longer as tense as before, and the group realized their awkward position as soon as they relaxed.
Because they were so nervous just now, even though the surrounding seawater was cold, they broke out in a sweat. Now that their bodies were steaming and they were close to each other, a strange feeling suddenly rose in their hearts.
Yun Jianyue and Yan Xuehen struggled to leave, but Zu An hurriedly stopped them, saying, "Once you're out of range, I won't be able to conceal your presence anymore. If that octopus monster discovers you, we're doomed."
The two women knew he was telling the truth, so they didn't insist. However, it was still awkward, and Yun Jianyue couldn't help but say, "Xiao Anzi, you're enjoying the benefits, aren't you?"
Even Yu Yanluo stared at him with a strange expression. Zu An hurriedly explained, "How could I be the kind of person who takes advantage of others in distress? I was genuinely worried about that octopus monster."
The cold laugh of Mi Li echoed in my mind: "Keep pretending. Since everything's alright, I'm going to sleep. *yawn*"
The image of Mi Li in his mind stretched, revealing her graceful curves, and before Zu An could respond, she opened the door and disappeared.
Zu An wondered if this woman had created a space in his mind.
The thought of someone going in and out of my head feels weird.
Fortunately, the other party was the Empress's sister, so it wasn't unacceptable.
Seeing his clear eyes, the women let him go. Yan Xuehen bit her lip lightly: "This place is really amazing. Just now, the spring was connected to such a vast sea."
