() "You've thought about it long enough!" Seeing that Xiao Tianhe hadn't answered, the demon lord was quite dissatisfied, "I've already said it, I want your life so easily, but now I'm willing to share the world with you, what do you have to hesitate about?" Don't think I really can't bear to kill you!"

Xiao Tianhe suddenly raised his eyebrows, took a long breath, and agreed: "Okay, I promise you!"

"Hmph, that's right. I need Lan Yuanshi to assist in refining Meng Zhangpei now, you can go to the Misty Sea tomorrow to help me get it, I don't need a lot, one is enough. "The Demon Lord said.

"Hmm...... It's very easy to go to the Misty Sea, but it depends on luck to get the Blue Yuan Stone. Xiao Tianhe looked very embarrassed.

"Oh, what do you mean by that?" the Demon Lord's brow furrowed again.

Xiao Tianhe looked at the demon lord calmly: "You probably think that the Blue Yuan Stone and the Red Meng Stone are all over the Misty Sea and are everywhere, right? In fact, these two gems only appear in the extremely deep sea, and the number is scarce, so you have to look for them slowly." "Anyway, no one knows what the situation is in the Misty Sea, Xiao Tianhe lied.

The demon lord will be skeptical: "How much time will it take?"

"Searching aimlessly in the depths of the bottomless expanse of the ocean, I can't say for sure. It can be as short as a few days or as long as years, so I say it depends on luck, and if you find it, it's even if it's a blind cat hitting a dead mouse. Xiao Tianhe just didn't change his face and opened his mouth without a beat.

The demon lord did not answer, but stared at Xiao Tianhe, his eyes sharp and cold.

"Don't stare at me, you stare at me, I don't have a problem! It's not something that the Great Red Realm should have, how can there be a lot of them? Otherwise, there will be more than a few Blue Yuan Stones that have appeared in the Sky Flame Continent over the years. Judging from Xiao Tianhe's helpless expression with a hint of grievance, what he said seemed to be the truest words in the world.

"That's it, you leave tomorrow to find it, I'm not in a hurry. The demon lord was relieved, "But my ugly words are ahead, you don't play any tricks on me, otherwise don't blame me for turning my face and not recognizing people!" After speaking, the demon lord turned around and slowly left with his hands in his hands.

"No problem!" Xiao Tianhe pretended to smile at the back of the demon lord and asked, "I'm curious, aren't you afraid that I will hide in the mist and never come out again?"

The demon lord stopped, turned his head and said, "The woman who was waiting for you in front of the room at night is your friend, right? By the way, and the kid who came to you not long ago is also your friend, right?"

The Demon Lord's seemingly incomprehensible words made Xiao Tianhe anxious in his heart.

"Okay, when you get the Blue Yuan Stone, come directly to Bei Wei City to find me. Farewell, Brother Xiao. The Demon Lord raised his right hand and waved, and the figure disappeared around the corner.

魑, charm, 魍, 魉, Beitang Mansion Luan Feng Department four major cities, of which Beitang City is the capital of the Beitang family.

"Xue Mei and Brother Ting must have been taken hostage by him, damn it! I didn't want to involve them, but in the end I still got them into danger! Fortunately, I was cautious and lied, and bought a little time!" Xiao Tianhe said in his heart.

The terrifying demon lord actually knew everything about Xiao Tianhe, but Shi Haoming and Du Huairou didn't know that the demon lord had other identities. Xiao Tianhe suddenly recalled the night he met Huang Tianyuan, outside the Shaking Wind Tower in Xilan City, Yuebu Town, Ximen Mansion, Nangong Ting once commented on Huang Tianyuan: "That person seems to have secrets and dangers, if I have to say anything strange, I think it is his aura that makes me a little uneasy." At that time, Xiao Tianhe still felt that Nangong Ting was too worried, but now it seems that Nangong Ting is much sharper than himself.

Without further ado, Xiao Tianhe remembered the way he came and ran back and forth. He couldn't wait for the dawn, he had to set off with Du Huairou immediately to wade through the misty sea! He flew around the last corner, and collided with Du Huairou who was running from the other side.

"Where have you been?" I inquired about the gatekeepers, and said you had gone outside. I felt a little strange, and I was worried that you would be in danger if you weren't by my side, so I came out to look for you. Du Huai Judo.

Xiao Tianhe grabbed Du Huairou's hand and ran to the nearest city gate: "The situation has changed, I will take you across the misty sea area immediately, and I will talk to you in detail on the way!"

Du Huairou listened to Xiao Tianhe's tone, and it seemed that the matter had reached a rather urgent level. The two went straight out of the city and flew to Xipinghai with stars and moons.

On the way, Xiao Tianhe told in detail about his experiences with the demon lord. When he learned that the demon lord also had an identity that was Beitang Chun, Du Huairou was so shocked that he couldn't speak for a long time.

"He incarnated as Beitang Chun precisely to get close to me, spy on me, and watch out for me. I never thought that my every move would have been exposed to the Demon Lord's eyes. Now that your good friend has been taken hostage by the Demon Lord, what should you do?" Du Huairou asked Xiao Tianhe.

"Since they are friends, of course they are saved. I'm going to exchange the Blue Yuan Stone for them. Xiao Tianhe's tone was unswerving, and there was a murderous aura between his eyebrows, "Use hostages to coerce, hmph, I hate this kind of scum who plays three indiscriminate tricks the most!"

"Isn't there much lack of virtue that the demon master does? Actually, there is no need to ask, I know that you have always put the word 'righteousness' first, and you will definitely not give up the life of your friend. Now the strong attack can't be done, and there is only one way left to exchange the blue yuan stone. I want to hear what you're going to do after you get the Blue Yuan Stone, you don't have to give it to the Demon Lord, right?"

"Of course not. It must be considered that the Demon Lord may be a capricious villain, and even if we obediently hand over the Blue Yuan Stone to him, he will most likely refuse to let him go. At that time, you can only hand over the stone with one hand and hand over the person. ”

"What if the Demon Lord gets the Blue Yuan Stone and becomes murderous?" Du Huairou was worried, "I didn't expect the Demon Lord to start acting at this juncture

, you won't have time to cultivate into a sword demon. ”

"Fortunately, I still kept a hand when I pretended to agree to the Demon Lord's request, he thought it would take me a long time to get the Blue Yuan Stone. During this period, you follow Shi Haoming's plan to hurry up to find the dragon clan, and I will go to find my old friend. Whether we can find it or not, we can't test the patience of the Demon Lord. After a month, be sure to rendezvous near the Misty Sea and return to the Sky Flame Continent. Xiao Tianhe has already drawn up a detailed plan.

"Your plan is quite good, but I don't know what kind of realm those best friends you have in the Blue Dragon Continent? If they are similar to you, I advise you not to drag them into the water. Casualties are inevitable during the war, and I can't help but let you risk your life for the sake of our demon clan, and it's not worth letting your best friend forget to die. Du Huairou said sincerely.

Xiao Tianhe glanced at her: "What is this called? Isn't the demon lord also eyeing me and planning to take away? How can I stay out of the matter? Besides, if it weren't for your reminder, I'm afraid I would have suffered a long time ago." As for my old friend, I know it, so you don't have to worry. Don't say anything like that again!"

Du Huairou hurriedly waved her hand: "No, no, no, you misunderstood." I mean, the Demon Lord is far more savvy than we expected. He didn't immediately harm you this time, but was willing to lower his face and offer to live peacefully with you, which is really a blessing in misfortune. Life is precious, everyone cherishes it, if you choose...... We will never blame you for choosing the other path......"

"Shut up!" Xiao Tianhe didn't wait for Du Huairou's words to finish before he was furious and angry, "Who do you think of me Xiao Tianhe as a person? How can I be this kind of cowardly person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, and abandons my friends? The road ahead is bumpy and dangerous, you and I drive side by side in the same car, help each other in the same boat, live together, die together, and only then will we meet in vain! If you don't have the thought just now, I'm sorry for the friendship between us!"

Du Huairou was quite moved by what she said, she rolled up her sleeves and gently stroked the corners of her eyes, and shook her spirits: "You are right! We are friends, we are irreversible, and we are friends of life and death! I am also open, rather than living in the world, it is better to fight tenaciously! I am very relieved, Brother Shi, he really did not see the wrong person, I really want to marry you more and more." Let's also talk about a deal, and when the matter is over, if you die, I will die with you, and walk with you on the Huangquan Road; if you are still alive, you will marry me, and the world will fly like wings." Tsk, how do you look at it, you are sure to make a profit and not lose money, so let's agree!" Du Huairou grinned mischievously.

Xiao Tianhe said angrily: "My aunt and grandmother, they are all in a hurry, do you still have the leisure to make trouble for me?"

"Oh, you said it yourself, 'you want to live together, you want to die together'! Look at how many couples in the world can be like this? Hmph, I think you just dislike me, think I'm not good-looking!" Du Huairou was sharp-toothed, Xiao Tianhe couldn't do anything about her.

"I'm a metaphor...... That's it, I'm afraid of you, let's put this matter aside for now, and then talk about it, okay? Let's think about how to deal with the demon lord in the end!" Xiao Tianhe hurriedly changed the topic, "After the demon lord refines Meng Zhangpei, Shi Haoming is afraid that he will have to rely on you to entangle, and my old friend and I will deal with Li Cuiyan and them." According to my analysis, the strength of the demon lord should be about the same as that of the dragon clan in the Blue Dragon Continent, if only he could be found to help. Are you confident that you can find him, and are you sure that you can convince him to come to his aid?"

Du Huairou nodded confidently: "We are all demon clans, no problem." ”

"I remember that the dragon seemed to be very badly injured when he fled, and I just don't know how he's recovering now. Xiao Tianhe recalled.

Du Huairou touched the cloth ball hidden in the belt, and said confidently: "You can rest assured." This cloth group was handed over to Du Huairou by Shi Haoming when he left, and it was only said that it could be opened at the last moment. Shi Haoming is a far-sighted and insightful person, Du Huairou trusts him very much, he must have thought everything through.

In order to reduce unnecessary trouble, after entering the realm of Ximen Mansion, Xiao Tianhe collected the Heavenly Enemy Knife, and Du Huairou took him to fly. Du Huairou no longer has to control the magic knife and pretend to decorate the demon like when he first met, the Yubu demon clan can fly, Du Huairou took Xiao Tianhe to carefully avoid the sky above the state city, and at dawn, the two rushed to Xipinghai.

When entering the Xiping Sea, you have to dive underwater and continue to travel. Although the Ximen family had set up a silkworm net, Du Huairou could easily identify it. In this way, it took more than half a day to finally reach the edge of the misty sea.

"That's my limit. It's up to you next. I wonder how long it will take to cross this sea?" Du Huairou asked.

"The width of the misty sea area is about 1,000 miles, and it only takes me about half a day to reach the other side at most. At this time, Xiao Tianhe couldn't care about saving Xuan Li, the time was pressing, and he could spend a little less.

"That's good. See you in half a day. Du Huairou smiled, closed her eyes and fell into Xiao Tianhe's arms.

Xiao Tianhe lifted her up, the imperial sword rose into the air, and plunged headlong into the mist.

......

The seven counties of Qinglong are peaceful and happy, and the mainland presents a prosperous scene. And after a small turmoil, the immortal cultivation world regained order under the guidance of the sword immortals.

The brand-new world and the different customs and customs all made Du Huairou, who had long been tired of the tasteless life of the Heavenly Flame Continent, full of interest. But she didn't have time to look around. "Before returning to the Yu Yu Realm, you must have a good trip to this Qinglong Continent. Du Huairou thought to herself.

Sure enough, as Xiao Tianhe expected, the demon clan of the Qinglong Continent was the same as that of the Heavenly Flame Continent, which was very rare. Similar to the metaphysical consciousness of demon cultivators, the demon clan also has special perception abilities. Although Du Huairou's perception of the demon clan is very keen

, but the scope is limited. Unlike the Heavenly Flame Continent, there are immortal cultivators in the Qinglong Continent, and they have a hatred towards the demon clan, and Du Huairou does not dare to use demon power to explore wantonly.

In just one month, if there are no clues, it will not be easy to find the only remaining dragon clan in the vast Qinglong Continent. Du Huairou remembered Shi Haoming's words: "The demon clan is either born in the mountains or in the water. Dragons love water, so they are likely to be near water. There are many people on the riverside, but it is not a quiet place, the river is shallow, it is not a pleasant place, and the lake is dead, it is not a good place. Therefore, it is very likely to be in the sea. There are fishing and water in the coastal waters, so it is advisable to avoid them; there are few islands in the far seas, and the islands are small, so they are not suitable for living. In my opinion, you only need to search for the larger uninhabited islands in the middle of the sea, and focus on those with mountains and trees. As for the direction, it must be the direction of the origin of the demon beast riot in the first place. ”

Shi Haoming is also a dragon clan, so he naturally knows the temperament and preferences of the dragon clan. After questioning passers-by, Du Huairou immediately targeted the Western Zhonghai in the three counties of Shenglong, Youlong, and Feilong.

There are many offshore islands, dotted about, and the farther you go to the sea, the fewer and sparse the islands become, and most of them are small islands like sesame mung beans. With the heart of the dragon clan, such an island is not eye-catching at all.

Du Huairou spent three days flying from the north of Thang Long County to the south of Fei Long County, and from the air, there were about 1,000 large uninhabited islands in the Zhonghai Sea. Among them, there are mountains and trees, accounting for about 30%. The rest is simple, Du Huairou only needs to explore one island at a time.

More than ten days have passed, and Du Huairou has been exploring more than 300 large islands day and night. There are all kinds of beasts on these islands, as well as a few monsters, but they are all very weak. Not only did the whereabouts of the dragon clan not be found, but even the tigers and leopard monsters were nowhere to be found. Seeing that the agreed rendezvous with Xiao Tianhe was approaching, Du Huairou became more and more anxious.

"Brother Shi, Brother Shi, don't guess wrong, time waits for no one!" Du Huairou flew away from an island again with disappointment, she looked into the distance ahead, several islands were hazy into several gray spots, "Even if there is a demon beast with a higher intelligence and let me ask! It's better than so time-consuming and laborious to eliminate ...... one by one."

"When I had a rough look the previous time, I flew from north to south for three days, and according to the distance estimate, it was almost two-thirds of the way from south to north this time. If that damn dragon isn't a third of the way away, that's in trouble. Du Huairou thought as she flew. "Bah, what a bad luck, don't deserve to die, don't deserve to die, if I die, I'll find something to do!" Du Huairou said to herself, "Alas, that guy, can't he really be dead......"

As you get closer, the island ahead grows larger. Du Huairou squinted and looked at it from afar: "Well, the size is moderate, there are mountains, there are trees, it is still in line with the standard, it is worth checking." "She lowered the altitude of the flight.

"Huh?" Du Huairou suddenly stopped in mid-air, turned around, and looked at the sea behind her. There are weirdness!

The water was a clear blue color, and in the blue, there were faint shadows mixed with a few dark shadows.

Du Huairou immediately returned to take a closer look. It is not surprising that the underwater shadows are mostly rocky reefs close to the surface of the water. She didn't know how much she saw along the way. It's no wonder that the arrangement of the shadows here is actually regular! Several shadows are arranged in an approximate circle, Du Huairou counted them, and there are a total of eight shadows forming the "ring", and there is also a shadow in the middle of the ring. This shape cannot be a naturally occurring reef.

Du Huairou plunged into the sea to find out.

When she saw the real thing in the clear water, Du Huairou was stunned, it turned out that they were nine huge statues! Each statue was about 20 zhang high, no wonder you could see the shadow even if you were not close to the water!

The statues are spaced about 10 zhang apart, and each one is carved directly from the rock. Underneath the statue is a small piece of land!

"An island under the sea!" Du Huairou couldn't help but exclaim. In the hazy and dim waters in the distance, there seemed to be a rising shadow. "Is there a mountain on the island, is this naturally formed or artificially created?" Du Huairou wondered.

Looking at the statue closely, Du Huairou couldn't help but laugh dumbly. Compared with its imposing scale, the level of carving is extremely incommensurate with the poor quality. The statue is humanoid, but both the polishing of the lines and the outline of the details are very rough, the contours of the face are not smooth enough, the facial features are not clear enough, the shape of the clothes is not smooth enough, and the whole statue is full of edges and corners and bumps from top to bottom. Judging from the complex clothing of the statues, the carver is not lazy, but really unskilled.

The statue in front of him was a man, dressed in a robe, with his left shoulder bare, his right shoulder raised high, and two branch-like protrusions erected at the top, and a long strip on the robe was immediately connected to the right shoulder, and a long strip spiraled around the body. "This dress is strange enough, who would dress like this?" Du Huairou shook her head repeatedly.

The other statues are also men, and their costumes are exactly the same, but the postures are different: the statues in the outer circle are all facing outward, and the one in the middle is a figure of a man sitting cross-legged on one leg. Because of the rough carving of their faces, it is impossible to see their true appearance. There are eight outer blocks, one of which is a total of nine. "Nine", this coincidental number made Du Huairou's heart flutter.

She swam around the nearest statue when suddenly, something lit up in the distance.

"What's that?" Du Huairou paddled to the farthest statue.

When she got closer, she realized that the back of the statue was no different from the others, but the front was a smooth rock face, and it turned out that the statue was only half finished.

In the lines around the statue's neck, there was a small golden rod that glowed in the dim water.

"It's like a chisel. Du Huairou was about to reach out to take it, but a loud shout suddenly sounded in her heart: "Stop!"
