"Senior brother, you forgot that I have a spatial dimension. I can enter the spatial dimension at any time if there is any danger!"
Upon hearing this, Yan Ziyan frowned slightly, as if he was thinking about something. After a while, he said, "Alright, but you must be careful. If you encounter any danger, remember to hide in the space immediately."
Jiang Wanwan nodded solemnly, promising to remain vigilant at all times to ensure her safety.
So the two searched for prey in the vicinity and soon caught several big-eared rabbits.
They decided to divide the work: Yan Ziyan was responsible for pouring rabbit blood on one side of the underground river to attract the attention of the piranhas.
Before long, a group of piranhas, attracted by the blood, quickly gathered around. They thrashed and leaped in the river, some even jumping out of the water. Yan Ziyan tied a rabbit, about half his height, with a rope and used it as bait, attempting to temporarily lure the piranhas.
At the same time, Jiang Wanwan, holding the water-repelling bead, submerged into the water. She carefully approached her target and successfully stored the white stone into her spatial storage.
However, the moment the stone disappeared, the red fathead fish suddenly let out a piercing scream.
The piranhas, which had been attracted by the rabbit, immediately changed direction and rushed toward Jiang Wanwan's location.
Jiang Wanwan was startled and swam desperately towards the surface of the water.
Upon seeing this, Yan Ziyan's heart sank, and he immediately unleashed a purple lightning bolt, striking the leading fathead fish.
Perhaps due to its peaceful and stable life over the years, the fathead fish was unaware of the impending danger. It failed to dodge in time and was instantly struck by lightning, falling from mid-air and turning belly up.
Just then, Jiang Wanwan finally surfaced, and Yan Ziyan, quick as a flash, pulled her up.
Before the two could even catch their breath, they discovered that even more piranhas were pouring out of the underground river. They bared their sharp teeth and frantically attacked anything they could devour.
Soon, the unconscious fathead fish was devoured by the piranhas, leaving only a lonely fish skeleton.
"These piranhas are really ferocious; when they get ruthless, they won't even spare their own people!"
Jiang Wanwan couldn't help but sigh. Looking at the scene before her, she couldn't help but recall the ancient poem: "Born of the same root, why are you so eager to harm each other?"
After successfully obtaining the Yinglong Crystal, the two continued forward along the direction of the underground river, where a cave entrance was faintly visible ahead.
Stepping out of the cave, one is enveloped in a dense, dark jungle, where a thin mist hangs in the air like a soft white veil. The ground is muddy and filled with swampy gas, resembling the entrance to hell.
"Wanwan, this place is full of swamps and low-lying areas, we'd better be careful!"
Yan Ziyan took the lead and walked ahead, firmly protecting Jiang Wanwan behind him.
Jiang Wanwan also maximized her divine sense, feeling a vague sense of unease, as if she had intruded into the domain of a powerful being.
The two walked on and soon arrived at a bare, dark hill.
Jiang Wanwan curiously scratched at it with her hand and found that the black rock was unusually hard.
Yan Ziyan, who was standing to the side, also found it strange. He took out an extremely sharp dagger from his storage bag and gently scratched the stone, but it didn't even leave a white mark.
Yan Ziyan exclaimed in surprise, "This dagger is made of meteorite iron, yet it has no effect on this stone?"
Jiang Wanwan's heart skipped a beat, and she said excitedly, "Senior brother, this mountain must hold a great secret; it might even be a treasure mountain!"
After saying that, she happily took out an even sharper dagger from her spatial storage, preparing to cut off a piece and take it back to study it carefully.
Just then, the ground began to shake violently, and Jiang Wanwan and Yan Ziyan both felt dizzy.
Immediately afterwards, the hill began to move slowly. Yan Ziyan quickly grabbed Jiang Wanwan and flew into the sky on his sword.
The two looked down and were immediately stunned. It wasn't a hill at all, but the enormous head of a giant python!
At this moment, its huge, red eyes were staring unblinkingly at the two of them, clearly regarding Jiang Wanwan and her companion as its prey!
"Hey! Is that a dragon? It seems to be at a crucial moment in its transformation. You two be careful!"
Old Xia poked his head out, gave a rather interesting evaluation of the dragon in front of him, and then gave his two young apprentices some instructions.
"So it's a dragon, huh? It's definitely far inferior to the Divine Dragon!"
Jiang Wanwan stood behind Yan Ziyan, leaning out halfway, her eyes fixed intently on the enormous creature before her, secretly comparing it to a divine dragon in her mind.
"Insolence! You ignorant brat, how dare you speak such nonsense before me! Today, I'll make sure you don't leave alive!"
A majestic voice suddenly rang out, making the ears of the two men ring.
Jiang Wanwan and Yan Ziyan exchanged a glance, both seeing the shock in each other's eyes.
"This dragon can speak human language?"
Jiang Wanwan looked like she had never seen the world before.
"Hmph, it's just a dragon that hasn't even transformed into a dragon yet, how dare it be so arrogant!" Yan Ziyan snorted coldly, and with a wave of his hand, several bolts of lightning roared towards the dragon.
However, the dragon simply shook its head slightly and easily dodged the lightning attack.
"This guy is so strong!" Jiang Wanwan was secretly shocked. She quickly used her own technique, and in an instant, countless lights flashed and attacked the dragon.
Seeing this, the dragon spewed out a stream of black flames, which collided with Jiang Wanwan's attack, producing a series of loud noises.
The two fought back and forth, locked in a fierce and evenly matched battle. The dragon's body was covered in impenetrable black scales, making it truly impossible to defeat.
"Bang!"
In the instant Jiang Wanwan was distracted, Yan Ziyan blocked the attack from the dragon's tail for her, and his entire body was sent flying.
"Senior brother!"
Jiang Wanwan quickly flew forward to check and found that it was just a superficial injury, so she breathed a sigh of relief.
"Hmph! Humans, I advise you to obediently become my meal, or you'll suffer a lot later!"
A mocking and disdainful voice came from behind.
"Wanwan, I see it! Its belly has a bulge and burn marks, that must be its weak point! In a moment, I'll distract it, and you focus your attack on its belly."
Yan Ziyan quickly transmitted his voice into a secret channel, then supported himself as he stood up, took out a long sword from his storage bag, the blade gleaming with a cold light and its edge extremely sharp.
Holding a long sword, he pointed it at the dragon and shouted, "You're nothing but a reptile, come on!"
After speaking, Yan Ziyan leaped high into the air, gripping his knife with both hands, striking a pose as if he were about to split a mountain with an axe. His eyes were firm and sharp, as if he wanted to cleave everything in front of him.
Upon hearing this, the dragon roared angrily, straightened its body, opened its blood-red maw, revealing sharp fangs, and pounced on Yan Ziyan high in the sky.
Yan Ziyan watched as the dragon straightened up, revealing its uneven belly, and sneered inwardly, "Well done!"
Just then, Jiang Wanwan also made her move.
She infused the Han Guang Sword with spiritual power, teleported, and used all her strength to forcefully swing it at the dragon's belly.
