Before Qi Yue could wake up from his surprise, Yi Ruo stepped forward and pressed his shoulder, saying: "Start practicing. I see that you very much hope to return to your own time as soon as possible. In this case, don't What a waste of time.”
With full of surprise, Qi Yue, Wen Ting and Xue Nu each sat cross-legged on the large wooden chairs and entered the state of cultivation.
Three days later.
The clear river flows slowly from west to east. This river can be said to be the mother river of the Tu people. The Tu people have a very large number, about one million. In this headquarters of the Tu people, nearly one-third of them live. People, and this mother river is called Qinghe by them. The name is very simple, which fully reflects the simplicity of the Tu people. No one knows how long Qinghe is. After all, no one could measure the length of a river in the ancient Behemoth period. , the widest part of the Qinghe River is seven or eight kilometers, and the location of the Tu nationality headquarters is the narrowest part of the Qinghe River. Here, they have the oldest boats that can travel on both sides of the river.
In the early morning, the sun rises from the east, and the bright sunlight shines on the Qinghe River from the side, giving it a special sense of beauty. The clear river water is so deep that you can see the bottom. It seems to be only a few meters deep, but everyone who is familiar with the water knows that , this is not the real depth of the Qinghe River. Some strange swimming fish in the river are clearly visible, swimming happily in the clear river water without any pollution.
Qi Yue, Wen Ting, Xue Nu, Yi Ruo and Long Jiang were standing beside the Qinghe River, looking at the sparkling river water. Each of the five people had different looks in their eyes.
Qi Yue said doubtfully: "Two seniors, is the Xuanyuan Tomb under this river?"
Yi Ruo nodded and said: "If this were not the case, I would not lead the tribe to live here. This green river is very strange. It does not look very deep on the surface, but there are many whirlpools at the bottom of the river. One of them is the path leading to Xuanyuan Tomb. It is precisely because of its specialness that it is very secretive. The ferocious beasts have also been looking for the top ten artifacts. The reason why they cannot find the target is because they are hidden with the top ten artifacts. The level of secrecy of the place has a lot to do with it.”
Wen Ting's pretty face turned red and she said, "But I can't swim, and I'm fire-attributed."
Yi Ruo smiled and said: "It doesn't matter. With Xuanwu here, water cannot be an obstacle to our progress."
Long Jiang smiled slightly and said: "You just need to wait until you arrive at Xuanyuan Tomb." As he spoke, he shouted low, and his tall body suddenly rose into the air and fell towards the Qinghe River. When he was about to reach the river, Long Jiang's body suddenly became perpendicular to the river surface. Then, strong yellow light spurted out from his body. The slowly flowing river water suddenly stopped for a moment. The next moment, Long Jiang's body had stabilized. Falling on the Qinghe River.
The yellow light became larger and larger. The intense light made it impossible to look directly at it. The area covered by the light extended towards the surroundings. Long Jiang's body had disappeared. When the vision of Qi Yue and the other two people recovered, a kind of Incomparably heavy pressure emanated from the Qinghe River. In the river in front of him, a huge turtle floated on the water. The turtle body was oval, with black shells on its back. The texture of the turtle shell was golden. Under the illumination of the morning sun, it looked extremely clear and shrouded in a faint light. When Qi Yue took a closer look, he was surprised to find that this huge turtle was more than thirty meters long and about twenty meters wide. It could completely become a turtle. Big ship.
The turtle's head was raised, and its yellow eyes looked like transparent gems. Long Jiang's voice came, "Come up, as long as you are on my back, you don't need to worry about anything else."
Yiruo smiled slightly and said: "This is the true form of Xuanwu. He has dual attributes of water and earth. In the water, even if he is as strong as the deep sea snake, you still have to be somewhat afraid of him."
Hearing Yiruo mention the Deep Sea Dark Snake, Qi Yue couldn't help but feel something in his heart, and said: "Why did I forget about him, Brother Dark Snake, come out." With a flash of light, the huge body of the Deep Sea Dark Snake appeared out of thin air, and before Qi Yue could After talking to him, he roared with joy and plunged directly into the water, causing a large splash.
"It feels so good. I haven't felt this good for a long time. Qi Yue, I found that since my lovely white lady appeared, my luck seems to be getting better and better. Not even the king of ferocious beasts can It's wonderful to have our destruction and to have this great river to swim in."
Yiruo said in surprise: "Is it your envoy?"
Qi Yue nodded and said: "Yes, he is also my partner."
Yi Ruo nodded approvingly and said: "Yes, our envoy is also a partner. Since you have a giant water-attributed beast, let's go and let your partner follow Long Jiang." As he said, She had floated up and landed gently on Long Jiang's back.
After three days of practice and adjustment, with the help of the source of nature, Yiruo's injuries have basically recovered. She only needs to nurse for a while before she can return to her previous best level.
Qi Yue, Wen Ting, and Xue Nu jumped up at the same time, and the Deep Sea Snake raised its three big heads in time to catch the bodies of the three of them.
Long Jiang didn't seem to like the Deep Sea Snake very much. He just said hello to Qi Yue. His huge body sank suddenly and was submerged into the Qinghe River. Without Qi Yue's greeting, the Deep Sea Snake emitted a layer of purple light all over, and it The three people protected him, and the huge snake body sank suddenly, following Long Jiang closely.
Xuanwu has the strongest defense among the water-attribute monsters, but in terms of speed in the water, it is still worse than the Deep Sea Serpent. Although Long Jiang has practiced to the point where he can transform into a human form, he still uses all his strength in the water. Even if it swims, it cannot keep the Deep Sea Serpent behind.
As deep as the green river, due to the energy protection of the deep-sea snake, Qi Yue and the others were like sitting on a submarine. The surrounding water and aquatic creatures were isolated from the light barrier. There was sunlight shining on the water. The clear river water is full of strange things, and the gorgeous feeling is unmatched on land.
The Deep Sea Snake was obviously very excited. While following Long Jiang, its huge body kept swinging in the river. Every swing made the water ripple.
Longjiang swam quickly in one direction. Not long after, Qi Yue had already seen the whirlpool that Yiruo had mentioned before. Under the water at a depth of about ten meters, he could clearly see small white ones. The whirlpool is constantly rotating, carrying sand and stones from the bottom of the river, making the river water look a little turbid. The whirlpools are different in size, and each has its own suction power. However, these suction forces obviously have no effect on super water beasts like the Deep Sea Serpent. He didn't even hide, but passed directly through the whirlpool. The three people under his protection, Qi Yue, didn't even feel any vibrations except for the changes in the surrounding scenery.
Qi Yue couldn't help but admire secretly in his heart. The ability of the deep sea snakes in the water is indeed powerful. No wonder they can become one of the most powerful races of ferocious beasts. If he waits until his strength reaches the Deep Sea Dark Dragon realm, he still doesn't know how strong he will be. Thinking of this, Qi Yue couldn't help but feel even more grateful to be able to escape from the hands of the beasts led by the King of Beasts.
Xuanwu Longjiang moved forward for about ten minutes, then suddenly stopped. His huge body was pressed against the bottom of the river, and he looked back at the Deep Sea Snake and Qi Yue. Long Jiang's voice sounded in Qi Yue's mind, "We are here. You must be more careful later. This is the whirlpool in front of you. Try to let your order shrink the body to the minimum and then get in. Don't stay, otherwise It will be thrown out by the whirlpool."
Qi Yue was somewhat surprised as he looked for the vortex that Long Jiang was talking about. After careful observation, he discovered that about dozens of meters ahead, there was a vortex with a diameter of only about one meter slowly rotating. Going up there, there was nothing surprising. Even the water flow is far less rapid than the previous whirlpools. Could it be that this is the gateway to Xuanyuan Tomb.
Long Jiang answered Qi Yue's doubts with his actions. His huge body slowly shrank and turned into a turtle with a diameter of only one meter in the flickering yellow light. At this time, Yi Ruo stood on his back. It seemed a bit incongruous, but the yellow light radiated from Long Jiang's body. It is better to protect Yiruo completely. The swimming speed suddenly increased. First it rose to the top of the whirlpool, and then, the yellow light suddenly shrank, and Long Jiang and Yi Ruo rushed into the whirlpool. In a flash of light, the figures of one person and one turtle disappeared.
Qi Yue hurriedly conveyed Long Jiang's words to the Deep Sea Snake. The Deep Sea Snake did not dare to be careless and hurriedly followed Long Jiang's example to shrink his body. However, he did not have as powerful an ability as Long Jiang. When his body shrunk to five meters long, It has reached its limit. Fortunately, his body is slender and not as big as Long Jiang's. He took Qi Yue and the others and followed Long Jiang's example to rise above the whirlpool. The purple light instantly became stronger. Qi Yue I felt a sudden feeling of weightlessness, and the Deep Sea Serpent had already led the three of them into the whirlpool.
The smooth feeling disappeared, and the weightlessness instantly became stronger, so Qi Yue had to urge his energy to stabilize on the head of the Deep Sea Serpent. With a flash of light, everything around him seemed to be evacuated, and he clearly felt the Deep Sea Serpent's whole body. As soon as the energy was released, the surrounding scenery changed instantly.
The originally clear river water turned into a large swath of golden light. In the shining light, Qi Yue could no longer see everything around him. Countless huge pressures came from the surroundings, causing the Deep Sea Serpent to exert all its energy. The pressure seemed to be It is gradually increasing, and each increase will release a little more energy from the deep sea snake's body.
Fortunately, this situation did not last long. The golden light suddenly converged. Qi Yue felt his whole body lightened and the surrounding scenery changed again.
With a bang, the reduced body of the Deep Sea Snake fell to the ground, and everything around him suddenly became clear. Qi Yue was surprised to find that the three of him and the Deep Sea Snake came out of a huge golden portal. The golden portal seemed to be completely filled with energy, and the golden energy was swirling and rhythmic. Obviously, this was the real portal to Xuanyuan Tomb.
Yi Ruo and Long Jiang were not far in front of them. Compared with the embarrassment of the Deep Sea Snake, Long Jiang looked much more carefree. At this time, he had returned to his human form, as if nothing had happened. , looking at Qi Yue and the others with a smile.
Qi Yue felt that the energy consumption of the Deep Sea Snake was too high, and quickly took him back into his body. Only then did he have time to observe everything around him. Qi Yue discovered that the place where he and the others were was a platform. The ground was very smooth, as if it were carved from jade. This place was very bright, but he didn't know where the light came from. Looking around, he couldn't help but be shocked by the situation ahead.
In front of the platform they were on, there were countless white pillars, which seemed to have the same texture as the platform they were on. The diameter of these pillars was about one meter, and the tops were parallel to the stone platform they were on, just like each one. Like inns, they are scattered messily on the path ahead. The distance between these stone pillars is also different. The nearest ones are seven or eight meters, while the far ones are dozens of meters. They are scattered in the entire space in front of them. Except for the golden portal behind them, they are surrounded by such white pillars. .
Around these pillars, one can clearly feel the changes in huge energy. The energy is very erratic and uncertain. There are no rules at all. It is constantly floating in the parallel position of the pillars, although this energy does not attack them. , but Qi Yue can still clearly feel the terrifying power of these energies. The sharp feeling seems to be able to cut through everything. These energies seem to be individuals. Although the gaps between them are not small, because their actions are irregular, These gaps can be said to exist, or they can be said not to exist at all.
Between the stone pillars, in addition to these energies, looking down, there is a bottomless abyss. The black abyss feels full of terror, as if there are countless big mouths, trying to swallow everything.
Looking through these stone pillars to the front directly opposite the golden portal, about three kilometers away, there is a staircase leading to a higher place. The highest point was about a hundred meters away from where they were, and it seemed to be a platform. Shining with a dazzling light like the sun, there is no need to ask, that is where the Xuanyuan Sword is.
Qi Yue and the others walked to Long Jiang and Yi Ruo. Qi Yue said: "Two seniors, how should we go?"
