Chapter 17: The Roc suddenly appears, and the dragon fails

Ji Chen and a few people hid in the path in the cliff and silently watched the dragon slowly swim to the end of the canyon, at this time, this dragon has already carried seven heavenly thunders, no accident, there should be two more, as long as it is carried over, it can turn into a dragon.

Thinking of this, Ji Chen's heart was a little excited, the dragon has always been the totem of China, but the clouds can drive the fog, call the wind and rain, there are countless legends about the dragon since ancient times, but no one has seen it with their own eyes, and many people think that the dragon is fictional. However, there are still some people who believe that it is impossible for such an ancient empire of China to invent a non-existent animal as a totem and pass it on forever. There are also 12 zodiac signs except for dragons, all of which are real, and it seems unreasonable to insist that dragons are fictional.

And Ji Chen could see a scene of turning into a dragon at such a close distance at this time, as the heir of the dragon, he couldn't be excited.

As the eighth heavenly thunder fell, Ji Chen's heart also hung high.

Fortunately, this giant Jiao stubbornly carried it under the eighth thunder tribulation, and after a slight pause, it continued to swim forward slowly.

Soon the clouds in the sky were rolling more and more fiercely, and the thunder snakes in them became more and more active, and it seemed that they couldn't wait to break through the sky. This last heavenly thunder should pour out all the energy in the thundercloud, Ji Chen looked at the menacing thundercloud, and his palms began to sweat.

Finally, when the dragon was still about two hundred meters away from the cliff, the last heavenly thunder, like a pillar of light, shot straight into the earth from the clouds, enveloping the place where the giant dragon was, and it lasted for two seconds.

The shock of this kind of scene to Ji Chen and the others was self-evident, that blue pillar of light was like a god's spell laser, and for a while, Ji Chen felt that the whole world seemed to be covered by the blue light emitted by that pillar of light.

Two seconds later, the water near the river was almost evaporated, and the waterfall was cut off at that moment, and a large crater of more than 100 meters appeared in the place where the giant dragon was. Ji Chen and the others, who were a few hundred meters away, felt a wave of heat rushing towards their faces, and the burning skin hurt.

After the blue light disappeared, the earth returned to black, and by the moonlight, Ji Chen saw the dragon curled up and lying motionless on the dry riverbed, its body was scorched black, the flesh on its abdomen was all turned outward, and the blood-drenched internal organs could be faintly seen.

Li Xue said dumbfoundedly: "Dead?"

In addition to being a little difficult to accept in Ji Chen's heart, he was more regretful, he didn't expect this last thunder to be so terrifying, he even felt that even if it was the heyday of the dragon, he might not be able to resist it.

Ji Chen couldn't help but bow his head and sigh.

Sun Jian asked, "What are those little snakes for? I don't think it's useful to line up this formation." ”

Li Xue put her finger to her lips and said, "It should just be shouting and cheering." ”

Ji Chen nodded and said that although this explanation was a little funny, he really couldn't think of any other role for these snakes.

The sky is just bright, the dark clouds gather like a tide and disperse like a tide, and the nine heavenly thunders are just dawn after the split, I don't know if it's a coincidence or what.

In short, the sky was already dawn, and since they couldn't see a dragon, Ji Chen and the others could only leave and continue to find Zhang Yue and Brother Kun.

Just as Ji Chen turned around and was about to beckon everyone to leave, Zhang Lan suddenly pulled the corner of his clothes and said, "Wait." ”

Ji Chen turned around and was just about to ask what to wait for, but before he could say anything, he saw that the dragon was actually struggling and writhing.

Ji Chen couldn't help but be a little excited, although this giant Jiao had nothing to do with them, and he didn't know whether this giant Jiao was good or bad, whether it was evil or not, but his heart couldn't help but hope that it could successfully turn into a dragon.

The giant dragon struggled and writhed, and after a long time it raised its head and roared into the sky, its eyes shining fiercely, as if it were demonstrating against the Tribulation.

Then, the snakes on both sides of the river suddenly began to move, and they climbed into the riverbed, and then got under the body of the giant jiao, and finally relied on a huge number to lift the giant jiao, and then the snake tide slowly transported it towards the mouth of the waterfall.

Ji Chen finally understood, it turned out that this was the role of these snakes!

The water behind the riverbed slowly gushes up, and the waterfall on the cliff is renewed. Ji Chen and the others hid behind a boulder on the edge of the cliff, and then lay on it and continued to watch.

When the giant dragon was carried to the end of the cliff by the snake tide, the snake group quickly dispersed, and the giant dragon jumped violently and fell down the waterfall.

After a short period of free fall, the waterhole below the waterfall was stirred up by giant dragons.

Ji Chen and the others also walked out of the path and came to the end of the canyon, they waited on the canyon for a long time, until the head of a giant Jiao suddenly emerged from the waterhole, and then let out a long roar, Ji Chen's heart suddenly relaxed.

Next, as long as it swims into that lake, it can turn into a dragon!" Ji Chen looked down expectantly.

When Ji Chen was feeling a little excited about this, he suddenly heard a huge birdsong, and his head was dizzy and he immediately remembered something.

Ji Chen looked up sharply and saw that it was the golden-winged Dapeng bird!

Ji Chen stared at the golden-winged Dapeng bird, and a series of questions appeared in his heart, what is it doing here now, is it going home? But will the time be too coincidental, isn't it?!

Sure enough, the golden-winged roc flew to the blue lake without stopping, and flew directly towards the giant dragon.

Because the Dapeng was so huge, it was hidden from the sky on the way over, and every time its wings flapped, the wind raged around Ji Chen.

The golden-winged roc flew over the giant dragon, circled it twice, and then dived down, carrying a strong wind over the river. I saw that Jin Peng grasped the distance between his body and the earth very accurately, stretched out a claw towards the river, and easily grabbed the giant Jiao in the water.

The giant dragon was caught in the claws of the golden-winged roc bird, like an eagle grasping a small loach, and it could not resist at all except writhing and struggling.

Ji Chen couldn't help but feel embarrassed, no matter how long this dragon had cultivated, it was still just a mortal thing before it turned into a dragon, and it was still just a small snake in front of this epic divine beast.

This is the reality, everywhere is the same, the same cruelty.

This dragon, which had been cultivated for thousands of years, fell short at the last moment of turning into a dragon, and then turned into food for others, Ji Chen felt sorry when he thought about it.

The big peng grabbed the dragon and circled all the way up, with a gorgeous posture but very domineering. When it flew to a certain height, Ji Chen heard it let out another long roar, and then violently tore the dragon in its claws into two pieces and threw it into the air.

After all this last night, it flapped its wings again and flew into the distance.

Ji Chen and the others looked at the two dragon corpses that fell from the air with complicated expressions, and the two corpses rolled in the air a few times and then smashed heavily on the canyon.

This Roc bird is not here to eat!

Sun Jian sneered and said: "One mountain does not tolerate two tigers, I think this Kunpeng is afraid that the dragon will compete with it after successfully turning into a dragon in the Blue Lake, so he took advantage of its hypocrisy to kill it and directly strangled the threat in the cradle." ”

Ji Chen was a little embarrassed, maybe in his opinion this was very cruel, but for this place, this is the way to survive, only cruelty, only ruthlessness, only lies, can live.

"Then what do we do now?" asked Sun Jian after taking a long breath.

Ji Chen spread his hands and said, "What else can I do, continue to find someone." ”

Ji Chen looked at the path on the edge of the canyon, this should have been a crack in the rock wall on this half, but the slope was very gentle, and it was overgrown with vines, it should be possible to go up.

"Let's just go down this trail, we've been here for almost two days, and we'll have to hurry. ”

The crowd stumbled up the canyon, and there was a long clearing at the edge of the canyon, and in front of the clearing was still a forest of unknown size.

It's just that the trees in this forest seem to be different from the trees that Ji Chen had seen before entering the island, there are two main types of them mixed in, one is like a very thin willow tree, Ji Chen approached and took a closer look and found that it was really a willow tree, but it was more than twice as thin as the willow tree in the outside world.

There is another kind of tree that is about ten meters tall, with a thick and square trunk, but the crown is only the size of a bush, and the diameter of the trunk is not large, which looks extremely awkward.

Ji Chen looked around and found that there was still no road here, so he had no choice but to go into the woods again.

The soil of this forest is all sandy, and it is flat and soft to step on. There seems to be a fresh fragrance in the air, and it smells pleasant, which should be the smell of these trees.

Ji Chen and the others kept walking forward in pairs, walking and walking, the person in front suddenly stopped, Ji Chen couldn't brake and knocked down Zhang Lan who was walking in front of him.

Zhang Lan glared at him, and Ji Chen hurriedly apologized and went to help her up. When he helped her up, Ji Chen took the time to glance in front of him, and then he knew why they had stopped.

It turned out that they had just come across the corpse of the dragon, and all the trees around the corpse had been knocked down, and there was chaos.

And the corpse was densely crawled with red monkeys, and the most bizarre thing was that these monkeys had no tails, and all of them had six hands!

Just as Ji Chen was helping Zhang Lan up, those monkeys also discovered Ji Chen and them, and they all raised their heads, scratching their ears and cheeks while staring at them intently.
