On the top of the cave, between Lin Shuo's stalactites, a little crystal emitted a faint light, but it was the light of the stars that illuminated this underground space.

The soaking wet boy lay on his stomach at the edge of the calm water, and the lake at this time was as calm as a mirror, without the slightest appearance of the previous surge. There were many minor wounds on the boy's body, and some bruised bump marks... The skin is a little whitish, this is because of the long soaking in the water...

Lu Guan was woken up by the pain, he first coughed violently for a while, coughing up the residual water and some mud and sand in his throat, and then he looked up in confusion, everything around him was extremely unfamiliar... Then, the memories of before he fell unconscious flooded into his mind like a raging wave...

Sadness flashed on the boy's face.

He raised his head slightly, and his gaze fell on the mirror-like lake, and his expression was gloomy.

Suddenly, the boy felt something touch his right arm, and the boy was stunned and turned his head a little sluggishly.

It was a small white bird, about the size of a palm... The bird has white feathers, a dark red beak and sapphire eyes.

The bird touched his arm lightly with its beak again.

Lu Guan only reacted at this time, although he didn't know what this little bird was... But he knew for sure that this little bird was not ordinary... On the feathers of the birds, there is a slight halo of light.

It's a bird-like beast, but it's probably only in its infancy.

This is the first living thing that Lu Guan has seen after falling into the Necromantic Jedi, except for his companions.

Lu Guan gently held the little bird in the palm of his hand - amazingly, this little bird was not as afraid of life as other juvenile monsters, but rubbed Lu Guan's thumb very meekly.

Lu Guan smiled silently, and then, the decadence on his face slowly dissipated, and he slowly stood up, soothing his aching body...

Lu Guan stood up for a while, and then put the white bird on his shoulder... The white bird looked around curiously, and there seemed to be a deep curiosity in its beautiful sapphire-like eyes.

First walked along the water's edge... Lu Guan found nothing. Smiled bitterly for a while, it seems that Le Lin Chuyue and Angela were not rushed here...

Then, Lu Guan gradually understood the structure of this place...

This is a natural underground cavern, and there is only a small part of the underground river here, and it is not clear to see further away because of the light...

But the cave turned its back to the direction of the river, and it seemed to go all the way down, as if there was no end.

Lu Guan didn't panic at this time, he first meditated to restore the depleted true qi to perfection, and then he tried to dive into the water to explore for a while, but he didn't dare to dive too deep or swim too far...

Naturally, nothing was found, and there was no fish life in the underground lake here – which meant that there was no chance for food to be replenished at the land.

After going ashore, Lu Guan steamed his clothes with real air, put the white bird waiting on the shore on his shoulder, hesitated for a while, and finally walked towards the depths of the cave, in the boundless darkness...

Unexpectedly, the journey was extremely smooth, without any obstacles or dangers, and the tiny crystals on the roof of the cave provided the most basic illumination...

The journey seems endless.

The future seemed dark, but he had to go on because he wanted to live.

Fortunately, the fluffy white bird on his shoulders gave him a sense of reassurance, which was very inexplicable, but that's it, with the company of the white bird, Lu Guan didn't worry that this long dark journey would be too lonely.

The black shadow continued to the south, and along the way, it encountered several extremely powerful undead, dozens of meters tall abomination giants, riding bone dragons hovering in the sky undead knights, skeletons with golden light flashing all over their bodies, zombies with rotting wings, condensed as resentful spirits about to materialize... Each one seems to be far stronger than the final professional of the human race...

But they watched as the black shadow drifted south, as if they hadn't noticed the foreign mass, and let him go deep into the heart of the Eternal Forest.

Of course, these Su Qiran and the others who were in the shadow space naturally didn't know, and the four of them were silent at this time, and a slightly heavy atmosphere circulated between several people.

Su Xiaoxiao sat beside Su Qiran, holding the cheats book that Su Qiran had just given her, Xingnuo sat in the corner, holding his legs and his eyes were a little dull, Qin Xiaotong closed his eyes, as if he was still adjusting his state, Su Qiran was a little bored with his hands on his cheeks, and his eyes spread out on Qin Xiaotong.

I don't remember how the little girl who was easy to be shy and cute grew up like this step by step, and now Qin Xiaotong is indifferent to life and reacts coldly to anything...

Too much killing has almost changed her into a person.

"See what?" Qin Xiaotong opened his eyes slightly.

"Look at you. Su Qiran chuckled.

Qin Xiaotong's eyes flickered slightly for a while, and then he was about to close his eyes again without care, as if he didn't care about Su Qiran's frivolous attitude at all.

Su Qiran shook his head helplessly, and then said calmly, "Do you remember the Qiankun Sword?"

Qin Xiaotong was slightly stunned.

"Grandpa Star's sword?"

"Well, Sword Ling Tian's right arm is the Qiankun Sword... It should be acquired and fused in... Su Qiran's eyes flickered, as if he was thinking about something.

Qin Xiaotong was silent for a while, then said softly, "There's something wrong with Ling Tian's body. ”

"Well, in Frostleaf City, he saved me by cutting off his right arm and turning it into a Qiankun Sword, and he also stuffed me with the Gaze Darkness. ”

"Ling Tian is like that, always thinking about others. Qin Xiaotong smiled slightly bitterly for a while, and then her face suddenly became terrifyingly serious, and her sharp gaze was on Su Qiran, "What are you going to do in the depths of the Eternal Forest?"

"I'm going to take Xingnuo to the Elven Empire. ”

"It's dangerous. Qin Xiaotong looked at Su Qiran faintly.

“... I promised her. Su Qiran was silent for a while, and then spoke.

Qin Xiaotong glanced at Su Qiran coldly, "Did you promise me less?"

Su Qiran was silent and didn't speak.

Su Xiaoxiao, who was a little curious and didn't dare to interject, quietly glanced at Xingnuo who was sitting in the corner, and then lowered her head a little lost.

Xingnuo is very beautiful, and the little girl is a little ashamed.

"You like her?" After being silent for a long time, Qin Xiaotong broke the silence mercilessly.

Xingnuo raised his head in a panic, his little face full of surprise and dazedness.

“... I don't know. Su Qiran shook his head slightly, "I just don't want to disappoint her... I..."

"Enough. Qin Xiaotong snorted lightly, the loss and sadness on his face flashed, and he immediately returned to his expressionless appearance.

"I don't need to know if you like her or not, it's not my turn to do anything, all I can do is stay with you and die for you if necessary. ”

"I am your shadow, this is what I promised the Sage, and I owe you..."

After speaking, without waiting for Su Qiran to say anything, Qin Xiaotong closed his eyes again and slowly entered a state of meditation.
