Chapter 1147 Lord Cangwu——
"More than just knowing him," Luo Li gently pushed Di Xuanming away, the Xuanyue Sword hovering in front of her. "Taixu Ancient Dragon, one of Cangwu's contracted partners back then. Am I right?"
The last three words were pronounced very strongly.
Upon hearing this, the black shadow exploded into a mushroom cloud with a "bang", and then quickly gathered into the shape of a mini dragon.
He flew around Luo Li three times and suddenly let out an earth-shattering howl: "Wuwuwu, it really is you! I knew you wouldn't die so easily!"
Luo Li flicked his forehead in disgust, "I'm not Cang Wu, you got the wrong person."
This sudden change made everyone freeze in place.
The lightning in Lei Che's palm went out with a "sizzle", and the formation talisman in Song Wanbai's hand fell to the ground with a "click".
Qianren stared at the crying mini dragon in astonishment: "This... is this the legendary Taixu Ancient Dragon?"
The mini dragon suddenly stopped crying and looked up at Luo Li with tearful eyes: "But your aura, Xuanyue Sword, and the way you activated the formation pattern just now are exactly the same as Master Cangwu!"
He flew around Luo Li twice more, then suddenly slapped his head, and his mist-like dragon claws glowed with light. "I understand! You must be the reincarnation of my master!"
Luo Li pinched his claws, "First of all, the Xuan Yue Sword was given to me by Senior Cang Wu. As for the familiar aura you mentioned, it's because I am now the Spirit Master of the Great Wilderness Spirit Martial Ancient Clan, and the inheritance I received naturally includes stories about Senior Cang Wu."
Taixu Ancient Dragon was stunned, and then began to cry loudly, "Ah - Lord Cangwu -"
Luo Li was having a headache because of its crying. She was about to speak to stop it, but she saw the mini dragon suddenly stop howling, and suddenly rushed to the jade box, injecting the spiritual light wrapped around its claws into the box.
The originally quiet jade box suddenly shone brightly, and the lid slowly opened, revealing a glowing ancient scroll and a crystal clear jade slip.
"This is the inheritance left by Lord Cangwu," Taixu Ancient Dragon wiped away non-existent tears, "He said that if a new owner of the Xuanyue Sword appears one day, he would hand it over. I didn't expect that I would wait for so many years, wuwuwu——"
Luo Li frowned slightly, "Then this ruins was built before Senior Cangwu passed away?"
Upon hearing this, the Taixu Ancient Dragon trembled all over, and ripples appeared on its dragon scales. "Exactly! My Lord, knowing his own end was near, he exhausted the last of his divine power to set up this Nine-Layered Heavenly Palace Formation..."
The misty tail of the Taixu Ancient Dragon rolled up the jade slip and gently stroked the intricate patterns on its surface: "This was originally the palace of Lord Cangwu. After the great battle that year, I fled here with his relics and used the last of my strength to sink the palace into the ground..."
He said pitifully, "I don't know how much time has passed. After all these years, you are the third wave of people to come here. I threw a few spiritual weapons at the first two waves and scared them away."
Luo Li raised her eyebrows: "It seems that you are quite responsible as a guard."
The Taixu Ancient Dragon flicked its tail and raised its head proudly: "Of course! Before leaving, the master said that the inheritance here must be passed on to those who are destined to inherit it! However..."
He suddenly leaned close to Luo Li, his misty eyes filled with suspicion. "You said you weren't a reincarnation, but the Nine-Layered Heavenly Palace Formation has extremely harsh conditions for recognizing its master. Even I can't completely decipher it. If you didn't have a bloodline or soul connection with Lord Cangwu, how could you have gotten in so easily?"
Luo Li raised an eyebrow, "Because I met Senior Cangwu in the God's Tomb, maybe I was infected with Senior Cangwu's spirit aura at that time."
After saying that, Taixu Ancient Dragon started crying again, "Why have you seen them all, but I haven't?"
The cries of Taixu Ancient Dragon echoed in the hall, causing the inscriptions on the stone tablet to glow slightly.
Luo Li rubbed her temples and said helplessly, "Don't cry. If Senior Cangwu saw you like this, he would probably be so angry that he would jump out of the God's Tomb."
The mini dragon immediately fell silent, and its dragon whiskers condensed from mist trembled.
He floated to Luo Li's shoulder and whispered, "Then, can you take me to see the last place where the master stayed?"
Luo Li was helpless. "Now do you know how long it has been since the Great Desolation period? I don't know where he last stayed."
Seeing that he was about to cry again, Luo Li quickly said, "Okay, okay, if, I said if, if there is a chance, I will send you to the place where the gods are buried. The residual soul of Senior Cangwu is there."
Upon hearing this, the Taixu Ancient Dragon's eyes, which were condensed from mist, instantly lit up like two small star lights.
He circled around Luo Li happily, his tail sweeping across the ground, leaving tiny specks of light. "Really? Really? You can't lie to me! I heard it with both ears!"
Lan Xiaoxiao quietly tugged at Song Wanbai's sleeve and whispered, "Is this really the legendary Taixu Ancient Dragon, the supreme demon beast second only to the Nine-clawed Sky Dragon that can devour stars and tear the void? Why is he acting like a child..."
Before Song Wanbai could answer, the Taixu Ancient Dragon suddenly turned its head, and its dragon whiskers made of mist stood up: "Little girl, I can hear you!"
Lan Xiaoxiao shrank her neck in fear and hid behind Song Wanbai.
Song Wanbai shook his head helplessly, but raised his hand and patted her head lovingly to comfort her.
Luo Li reached out and held down the restless Taixu Ancient Dragon: "Okay, let's talk about this ruin first."
The Taixu Ancient Dragon flicked its tail, and the light spots gathered into a glowing map floating in the air.
"The Nine-Layered Sky Formation has nine levels of restrictions. You have only broken the first level. Each level of restrictions contains a test left by Lord Cangwu. Only by passing all the tests can you obtain the final treasure!"
The Taixu Ancient Dragon shook his head proudly, and the dragon horns condensed from the mist were looming. "But with me here, you can avoid a lot of detours!"
Emperor Xuanming suddenly spoke in a low voice, "How could the people from the Demon God Temple open the ruins in advance?"
Upon hearing this, the ancient Taixu Dragon's mist suddenly surged, and a flash of anger flashed in the dragon's eyes: "Those filthy bugs! They used blood sacrifice to forcibly corrode the outer restrictions!"
Luo Li's eyes darkened, "Blood sacrifice? How many people did they kill?"
"At least a thousand human beings!" The mist of the Taixu Ancient Dragon turned scarlet. "When I sensed the ban was broken, those vengeful spirits were still wailing..."
Lan Xiaoxiao covered her mouth, her eyes full of horror.
Lei Che punched the stone pillar and gritted his teeth, "These beasts!"
Luo Li took a deep breath and suppressed the surging anger, "Where are they now?"
The Taixu Ancient Dragon flicked its tail, and a dozen red dots suddenly lit up on the light map: "It has broken through to the third level of restriction. However..."
He suddenly revealed a sly smile, "I prepared a little surprise for them in the second level of restriction."
Song Wanbai thought thoughtfully: "So the bell sound just now..."
