They rushed too hard and Jiang Yuebai and Lu Nanzhi fell to the ground together. Sharp objects scratched all over their bodies. Jiang Yuebai's skin was as white as dragon scales and it felt like it was being cut.
She climbed up and saw endless white bones everywhere, which felt like a large burial pit.
hiss-
Lu Nanzhi gasped, and Jiang Yuebai discovered that many sharp bones had cut through Lu Nanzhi's body, and one of them had passed directly through his calf.
"Anan, don't move!"
Jiang Yuebai was wearing a shark silk robe, and the exposed skin was only scratched with white marks. Lu Nanzhi's body-building skills were not as good as hers, and he could not withstand these sharp bones.
"These all seem to be dragon bones, and they are from dragons with high cultivation. First, use your sword energy to protect your body and separate these dragon bones."
Lu Nanzhi frowned and did as he was told. Jiang Yuebai also quickly used white vines to dig up the surrounding dragon bones and cleared out a piece of open space.
Afterwards, he released Xiaolu and the Five Ghosts to keep watch, and quickly used his magic to help Lu Nanzhi heal his wounds.
"How is it, does it still hurt?"
Lu Nanzhi shook his head, "I'm used to it. This little pain is nothing."
Jiang Yuebai's eyes were full of heartache, and he pulled her up to check the surroundings together.
"Eh? There's actually spiritual energy here."
Jiang Yuebai then discovered that she could already feel the presence of spiritual energy, and in addition to spiritual energy, there was also mixed demonic energy. They coexisted in a very strange way. Her golden elixir rotated on its own and would only absorb spiritual energy, and would not accidentally absorb demonic energy.
Jiang Yuebai felt that the demonic energy here seemed to have been tamed, and was very "gentle", but it was only the way it existed that was gentle, the demonic energy itself was still violent and turbid.
The same goes for Lu Nanzhi. Practicing her skills will not touch the spiritual energy, as if the spiritual energy and demonic energy here will automatically recognize their skills.
Jiang Yuebai picked up a bone from the ground and examined it. "They are all dragon bones, for sure. They have been weathered so badly, they must be at least a hundred years old. And from the looks of it, there are all kinds of dragons. Collect them quickly. These dragon bones alone are enough for us to rent a house for hundreds of years."
Jiang Yuebai hurriedly summoned the Lotus Cave Heaven, released the swarm of bees and little demons, and called out the puppets responsible for planting the spiritual fields to help carry the dragon bones.
"Dragon bones are very sharp, everyone be careful, pick the good ones and put them in the warehouse first, and pile up the bad ones somewhere. Quick, quick, act! Xiaolu, take the five ghosts and keep watch around to protect everyone's safety."
The little demons, along with the bee colonies, mountain monkeys and puppets, were busy carrying the dragon bones and throwing them into the lotus pedestal hanging in the air. They were working very hard.
As long as things are placed on the central land, they will not be automatically refined by the lotus platform. She can choose what to refine and what not to refine.
Seeing Jiang Yuebai's money-grubbing look, Lu Nanzhi curled the corners of her lips slightly and began to collect dragon bones. Learning to refine equipment consumes a lot of materials, and these dragon bones can just alleviate her embarrassment of not having enough spirit stones to buy materials.
"This looks like the tail bone of a black dragon. Anan, quickly collect it. There's more over here!"
Jiang Yuebai threw a piece of bone that was as tall as a person and as black as jade in front of Lu Nanzhi.
"There are so many dragon bones. What kind of dragon-slaying demon lives in this cave? Anan, I suddenly feel a little scared. What should I do?"
Lu Nanzhi stood there, constantly collecting the dragon bones that Jiang Yuebai threw at him, and joked, "I didn't see that you were scared, but I saw that you were excited. Don't throw it away. The space in my storage bracelet is limited. I'll put it with you first."
"Okay, let them move first and we'll find a way."
Lu Nanzhi couldn't help but say, "Ordinary people who come here would probably only pick up some good quality items and take them away, but you always leave nothing behind."
"Practicing requires a lot of spirit stones. How can I not save more?"
The two of them cleared a path through the keel and reached the end to find that they were indeed in the pit.
After going up, everything in sight is pitch black, and you can vaguely see several naturally formed rift valleys. Some are wide enough for driving, while some are narrow enough that you can only pass through sideways.
"There are air currents everywhere, which means there are passages, but they are too far away and our spiritual sense cannot reach the end." Lu Nanzhi walked from the narrow road to Jiang Yuebai and said.
Jiang Yuebai pointed to the wide road and said, "This direction is to the northeast of the Black Demon Mountain, the direction of the unearthed Hun Tian Demon Cave, right?"
Lu Nanzhi carefully identified it and said, "Yes."
"This is the only road without wind. It's a dead end, which means no one has explored this side from there yet."
Jiang Yuebai released Jixiang and left the professional matters to the professional rat, and there would be no mistakes.
squeak!
As soon as Jixiang came out, he jumped three feet high as if he was frightened, and jumped directly into Lu Nanzhi's arms.
Lu Nanzhi quickly caught Jixiang and said, "It's shaking. It seems to be very scared."
Jiang Yuebai glanced at the dragon bone pit next to him, walked closer to Jixiang and asked, "Do you think it's the breath of these dragons that is scary, or is it scarier to go back and take care of the cubs?"
squeak
Jixiang stopped shaking and raised his rat head.
"Lead us the way. If you do a good job, I will allow you to stay outside and you don't have to go back to take care of the cubs."
The auspicious mouse's eyes flashed, and finally it obediently jumped down from Lu Nanzhi's arms and explored the way through various gorges.
Jixiang stood at the entrance of the gorge where one had to turn sideways to pass through and shouted at Jiang Yuebai.
"Jixiang can really save a lot of time." Lu Nanzhi exclaimed.
"Go back to my Dongtian Small World and pick one. It was cultivated by Yunchang and has higher potential than Jixiang. It just needs to be cultivated for several decades and it can only play a role after it breaks through the Jindan stage. Jixiang is almost in the middle stage of Jindan now."
Lu Nanzhi did not refuse. This kind of spiritual rat could break through formations, find treasures and lead the way, and had a keen sense of danger. Even if it took hundreds of years to cultivate it, it would be worth it.
When Jiang Yuebai obtained Jixiang in the North Sea, Jixiang was just in the early stage of Jindan. After consuming so many ores and her golden spiritual energy over the years, he finally advanced to the middle stage of Jindan.
Later on, Jiang Yuebai would probably have to find a mine for it to eat. She now suspected that Jixiang did not have the corresponding skills, so most of the power of the spiritual ore was wasted. She had to pay attention to this aspect and help Jixiang find a skill that could be practiced.
While waiting for the little demons to collect the dragon bones, Jiang Yuebai used the thunder beads and thunder talismans on his body to set up a formation in the gorge leading to the Hun Tian Cave Mansion just in case.
If someone came over there and triggered the formation, at least the noise of the formation being broken would serve as a warning to them and allow them to be on guard in advance.
Lu Nanzhi benefited a lot from Jiang Yuebai's caution. He kept it in mind and reminded himself to be more careful in the future to avoid future troubles.
After more than half an hour, all the dragon bones in the pit were collected. The little demons were very responsible and picked up some broken bones buried deep in the cracks at the bottom of the pit. They even used their small bodies to go deep into the cracks and dug out a few red dragon bones.
Jiang Yuebai's principle of "leaving no one alive" was carried out to the fullest.
There were too many dragon bones, and Jiang Yuebai had no time to check them at this time. He left all the little demons in the Lotus Cave, and together with Lu Nanzhi, followed Jixiang to continue the investigation.
The gorge was extremely narrow, and Jiang Yuebai and Lu Nanzhi barely passed by walking sideways. If it were Xie Jingshan, he probably wouldn't be able to squeeze through.
No one knew what the black rock was made of. Jiang Yuebai used the sharpest dragon scale dagger he had on him to chisel it a few times, but not even a scratch was left.
Winding down all the way and going deeper into the ground, Jiang Yuebai and Lu Nanzhi were almost losing their direction and time. They only knew that they were going down all the time.
The air became increasingly thinner and more sultry, with a hint of scorching heat that permeated every pore, feeling cramped and oppressive.
Jiang Yuebai roughly estimated that he had been walking for a whole day, but he had not yet reached the end.
Jixiang's speed as he led the way became slower and slower, and he wanted to turn back several times, as if there was something ahead that made him very scared.
Jiang Yuebai walked in front holding Jixiang. She was weak and her spiritual awareness could not reach too far. Lu Nanzhi was always on guard behind her.
After walking like this for about a day, the two finally passed through the narrow gorge and came to an open area underground.
There was darkness in front of her. Although Jiang Yuebai had night vision, she could not penetrate the darkness. She only knew that the space in front of her was very wide and there was a loud echo when she spoke to Lu Nanzhi.
And the black ground beneath their feet seemed to have been carved, with strange curves and grooves.
"Little Green, go check it out."
Jiang Yuebai released Xiaolu, and the green light continued to rise. Xiaolu urged the phosphorescent fire on both sides to illuminate the front of them, and the two gradually saw the outline of where they were.
It was a magnificent and huge black dragon head. They were standing on one of the scales of the dragon head, as small as ants.
The dragon head looked like an ancient dragon that crashed out of the mountains, roaring towards the vast abyss. Even the flying dragon whiskers were carved to be lifelike and ingenious.
As Xiaolu flew forward, Jiang Yuebai vaguely saw traces of other dragon heads around the abyss ahead. Next to them was a scarlet fire dragon head, its body also buried in the mountain, and its dragon head opened its mouth and roared.
"How magnificent!" Jiang Yuebai exclaimed. "This is the Black Dragon, the Fire Dragon, the Qiong Dragon, the Azure Dragon, the Ying Dragon, the Zhu Dragon... There are also the Rain Dragon and the Pan Dragon, nine dragon heads in total."
Lu Nanzhi was also deeply shocked. "What are these dragons roaring at? What is under the abyss?"
The two men walked forward cautiously, trying to look under the abyss, when an invisible barrier suddenly appeared and blocked the two men behind.
Jiang Yuebai saw the runes on the barrier clearly and said in a deep voice: "It is a dragon clan restriction."
She looked around. When the restriction on the black dragon's head was triggered, the restriction light flashed on the heads of Qionglong, Yinglong and Zhulong, but not on the remaining dragon heads.
Could it be that it has been broken by someone
"Can you break this restriction?" Lu Nanzhi asked.
Jiang Yuebai sent out a stream of spiritual energy to trigger the forbidden barrier again. After carefully examining it, he frowned and said, "This is a layer of forbidden areas, which is not easy to break. I guess I need to break all the forbidden areas on the dragon heads before I can get through."
"Now..."
Suddenly, there was a slight vibration from the ground. Both of them noticed it keenly and looked at each other.
“Could it be that your formation was…” Lu Nanzhi didn’t dare to finish his words.
Jiang Yuebai scratched his face, "It's too far away, I can't tell, let's hurry up and explore the surroundings, there's such a big scene here, I'm afraid there's something horrible down there."
There will be three updates today, see you tomorrow!
