Ji Jiuying's cheeks flushed slightly, but she still tiptoed and gently kissed his lips. They were cool and refreshing. She left immediately after the kiss.
Just as she was about to speak, her waist felt lightly pulled away, and she fell into a firm embrace. A large hand pressed down on the back of her head, and cool lips covered hers. His domineering yet burning breath enveloped her. Ji Jiuying's eyes widened, startled by his sudden action. She felt her body stiffen slightly, and then his lips softened slowly. He freed one hand to cover her eyes, embraced her slender waist, and lifted her up slightly...
Only when Ji Jiuying's body went limp did Gong Mingyue finally let her go. Her face was flushed, like a lotus emerging from water, and the blood-red lotus between her brows added a touch of allure to her stunning beauty. Her moist lips opened and closed, making Gong Mingyue feel a surge of heat. His Adam's apple bobbed involuntarily, and his voice became hoarse, "Jiu'er, you're so beautiful..."
Seeing this, Ji Jiuying thought to herself, "My mouth is going to suffer again!" She quickly covered his mouth, "A-Yue, stop fooling around!"
Gong Mingyue's eyes flickered slightly, becoming more profound, as if they could draw people in. He composed himself and held her hand tightly. "Let's go, let's go see that black hole."
Soon the two arrived at a distance from the vortex. Looking at the black hole that was constantly emerging from the seabed vortex, Gong Mingyue pursed his thin lips and narrowed his eyes to observe the black hole. The black hole seemed to be filled with suction, as if it could devour everything in the world.
"Ah Yue, have you found anything?"
As Ji Jiuying spoke, she released the Evil Fire. The Evil Fire looked at the man in front of it, and its fur stood on end instantly. The aura emanating from this man was terrifying! Gong Mingyue glanced at the Evil Fire in Ji Jiuying's arms with a warning look, and the Evil Fire trembled slightly in fear.
"Ah Yue, you scared it!" Ji Jiuying shook her head helplessly, stroking the evil fire's fur with her hand.
"It's clearly a coward." Gong Mingyue grabbed Xie Huo, whose fur, which had just been smoothed out, immediately bristled again. Dare to rub against his wife's chest? He wouldn't even get a chance!
"Put me down!" the evil fire struggled desperately.
[Behave yourself!]
Evil fire; ...
Xie Huo's entire furry face fell down. "Fine, fine, you're the strongest, you're the biggest!"
Ji Jiuying looked at the two childish creatures, one beast and one human, and said helplessly, "Alright, you two, hurry up and see what kind of hidden world this black hole has."
“Woman, there’s a strong aura of an ancient spirit beast in this spot right now,” Xie Huo said hastily, not forgetting to give Gong Mingyue a provocative look.
Upon hearing this, Ji Jiuying looked around. What else could there be in this place besides the black hole? Finally, her gaze settled on the black hole. Could it be... inside the hole?
"That's right, but there's one mistake!" Gong Mingyue's thin lips curled up slightly, his charming and arrogant demeanor leaving Ji Jiuying somewhat stunned. No matter how many times she looked at him or from any angle, this man was always so handsome!
Xie Huo glared at Ji Jiuying, that woman who values romance over friendship! Once he could transform into human form, he would definitely be several times more handsome than this man. Coming back to his senses, he glared angrily at Gong Mingyue, and said defiantly, "What did I say wrong!"
Ji Jiuying also looked at Gong Mingyue curiously. She also wanted to know where things went wrong, since the guess about the evil fire had never been wrong.
"It has the aura of an ancient beast, but it's not a spirit beast; it's a sacred beast!"
What? A sacred beast? A sacred beast on par with divine beasts! They've actually encountered a sacred beast that only appears once every ten thousand years!
Not only Ji Jiuying, but Xie Huo was also stunned! But his senses clearly indicated that it was a spirit beast. Could it be that he had been asleep for too long and had degenerated?
"What are we waiting for? Let's go!" Ji Jiuying excitedly pulled Gong Mingyue into the black hole.
"Jiu'er, there's no need to go into the cave, it's right in front of us!"
Ji Jiuying and Xie Huo were completely bewildered. It was right in front of them? Then why couldn't they see anything? Could it be that the sacred beast was hiding in the shadows watching them? Thinking of this, Ji Jiuying felt incredulous and her hair stood on end as she cautiously observed her surroundings.
Gong Mingyue found her expression amusing and pulled her aside, "What? Little Jiu'er has things she's afraid of?"
"I'm not afraid at all. I'm just being cautious because I can't sense its presence!" Ji Jiuying explained.
"Alright, go upstairs and wait for me!"
Gong Mingyue released the Fire Qilin and threw the Evil Flame onto it, which landed face-first in the dirt! He then scooped up Ji Jiuying and placed her on the Fire Qilin's back.
Evil fire;?
Gong Mingyue gathered his spiritual power in his hand, and the underwater vortex that had been emanating from the black hole was controlled by him, and it struck the seabed directly. The seabed was instantly turned upside down, with storms rising everywhere and the surrounding area being confused by dust and sand.
Even the sea surface was whipped up by towering waves!
As the sandstorm subsided, the spot where they had just been standing turned into a deep blue that blended with the ocean, undulating up and down. What was once a black hole had become two large nostrils!
Its head and wings resembled a bird, its body a fish. Looking at this enormous creature that seemed to stretch to the bottom, Ji Jiuying gasped in astonishment. Was this the sacred beast A Yue had spoken of? She finally understood what he meant when he said it was right before their eyes! "What is this?"
"In the Northern Sea there is a fish, its name is Kun, and this is the sacred beast Kunpeng!" Gong Mingyue explained.
"Wasn't the Kunpeng extinct tens of thousands of years ago?" Xie Huo stared in disbelief at the deep blue Kunpeng on the ground, its belly still clearly alive as it rose and fell!
"Why were they extinct?" In legends, the Kunpeng, like the Qilin, was regarded as an auspicious beast by the world. How could it have become extinct? Ji Jiuying asked in confusion.
"There's an ancient saying: 'When the Kunpeng appears, all beasts come to pay homage; its cry echoes through the nine heavens, and all dragons tremble in fear!' This Kunpeng feeds on dragons. Tens of thousands of years ago, the Kunpeng clan acted with impunity, wreaking havoc on the dragon race. This aroused widespread resentment, and it was only through the combined might of the Azure Dragon, the Green Dragon, the Illusion Dragon, the White Tiger, the Vermilion Bird, the Black Tortoise, and the Qilin clan that they were subdued! Later, during a great war between gods and demons, various divine beasts and sacred beasts were involved. The sacred beast Kunpeng, with its fierce nature, refused to be bound by the gods and was eventually imprisoned under Mount Buzhou, where it became depressed and eventually went extinct!"
Ji Jiuying snapped out of her daze upon hearing this. So the legendary thing really existed. She just hadn't expected that the Kunpeng's food was dragons. The phantom dragon on her wrist trembled upon hearing this.
Looking at the undulating belly and large nostrils, he twitched his lips slightly. "So those whirlpools in the bangs were all formed by this sacred beast's snores?"
Gong Mingyue nodded and explained, "Its snores carried the aura of a sacred beast, which ordinary cultivators could not withstand, so they fainted the moment they fell into the Flowing Sea and eventually drowned at the bottom of the sea!"
Ji Jiuying finally understood. This sacred beast was indeed powerful. It could kill countless spiritual cultivators just by sleeping. If its huge body were to shake, it would destroy the entire Cangming Continent!
