Chapter 102: The Heart of the Demon Dragon (Part I)
After three days and three nights, the mystery of the natural formation was finally completely engraved on the demon baby of the ape spirit, forming a layer of golden armor. When the armor was completed, the two demon babies burst into golden light, and the light swept through the ape spirit's body, and finally came out, and suddenly the surrounding beast statues also emitted a strong light, echoing with the ape spirit.
The light lasted for a moment before vanishing, and the light flew out of the ape's spirit consciousness again, into the red stone. The armor on the demon baby was also integrated into it, forming a golden film of light, wrapping the life fire inside the demon baby.
The ape spirit slowly opened his eyes, the scars on his body disappeared, a golden light flashed in his eyes, and the temperament on his body changed again, and the ape spirit, who originally knew nothing about the formation, finally had a deep understanding of the formation.
Collecting the beast statues floating around them into the immortal artifacts, the ape spirit and the variety left the place.
And the blue dragon seemed to fall into a deep sleep after absorbing all the energy of the thunderball, and the ape spirit also included him in the immortal weapon, I don't know if the blue dragon will enter his so-called next stage after waking up.
Leaving the Chaotic Stone Ridge, the ape spirit who had received the natural formation was in a good mood, flying freely in the sky, and there was no destination, just soaring freely.
Before he knew it, he had come to a small forest, and from above he saw a small lake in the middle of the forest, around which some small animals were drinking.
The ape spirit's awe-inducing aura fell, he was originally a beast, even if he cultivated into a demon, he couldn't hide the natural aura exuded from his body, so the small animals around him were not frightened away, but approached the ape spirit one by one.
The ape spirit gently picked up the water with both hands, raised his head and drank it, this feeling is really a long time ago, since he cultivated into a demon, he has been living a life of fighting and killing, and the old demon's advice before death is also like a mountain peak pressing on his shoulders all the time to force him to move forward, everything makes the ape inspiration physically and mentally exhausted.
Looking at the animals around him, the ape spirit couldn't help but think of his life in the Ten Thousand Demon Forest, when he was still an ordinary little monkey, living carefree under the protection of the old demon.
Now that I think about it, maybe the original days may have been more pleasant, although weak, but there are no troubles, although life is short, but you can live happily, unlike now, although you have strong strength, you have to work for the burden on your shoulders.
The ape spirit took a deep breath, the breath of the forest made him feel refreshed, he was about to forget this feeling, and before he knew it, there was a snoring sound, and the ape spirit actually fell asleep.
It was the first time for Bai Chang to see the ape spirit so relaxed, and he couldn't help but relax as well, he had explored the surroundings before, and there was no strong existence, so there was nothing to worry about.
This sleep was not long, only an hour, but this hour made the ape feel refreshed, and it seemed that everything around him was clearer than before.
At this time, a voice came, "You're awake." ”
The muscles of the ape spirit's whole body tensed instantly, and he quickly looked in the direction where the voice came from, and found that a middle-aged man was sitting only one meter away from him at some point, holding a fishing rod in his hand, staring intently at the surface of the lake.
Variety also appeared in front of the ape spirit the next second the voice appeared, ready for battle.
The ape spirit stared at the middle-aged man, and didn't find anything special about him, no different from ordinary ordinary people, but it was like this that the ape spirit was more vigilant, because it was impossible for ordinary people to get close to him a meter without being discovered by him.
The middle-aged man saw that the fish that was about to be hooked was frightened away by the murderous aura emitted by the ape spirit, sighed, and said, "Little guy, put away your murderous aura, you scared my fish away." ”
The ape spirit asked, "Who is the senior?"
The ape spirit observed for a while, and it seemed that the middle-aged man had lived here for a short time, and his identity to be able to live in the secret realm must be unusual, so he called him a senior.
The middle-aged man made a silent movement, stared at the bottom of the lake intently again, and saw a small fish interested in the bait, and his body couldn't help but lean forward slightly.
Seeing that the middle-aged man ignored the ape spirit, Bai Chang was angry in his heart, and just wanted to scream, but was stopped by the ape spirit.
The ape spirit didn't feel any hostility from the middle-aged man, or he couldn't feel it at all, this could only be a possibility, the other party's level was too high to feel anything from the other party at all.
In this way, the ape spirit waited patiently, and time passed bit by bit, and at dusk there was not a single small fish on the bait, which made the middle-aged man sigh constantly, but he was insisting.
Finally, before the sun went down, the middle-aged man finally put the fishing rod back, and some of the dejected organizers were sorted.
Slowly packed up until the sun went down in the west, and the moon hung high in the sky, sprinkling soft moonlight.
The middle-aged man ignored the ape spirit, but left to the other side without saying a word from beginning to end.
Seeing that the middle-aged man was about to disappear from sight, the ape spirit thought about it and followed.
After passing through the grove, we came to a clearing, where there was only a small thatched hut, in front of which were placed all kinds of agricultural tools, everything looked ancient, and there was no precious treasure at all.
The middle-aged man put the fishing gear back in its place, then turned around and said, "Little guy, I didn't catch any fish today, only some coarse tea, if you don't dislike it, come in and have dinner." ”
With the current cultivation of the ape spirit, there is no need to eat at all, but since the middle-aged man invited, the ape spirit was disrespectful, and said thank you and entered the room with the middle-aged man.
The room was also very simple, there were no golden tables and chairs, only a table made of ordinary wood, on which were placed rough tea sets.
The middle-aged man beckoned the ape spirit to sit down and said, "You wait here first, I'll go out and cook first." With that, he walked out.
The ape spirit looked through the door and saw that the middle-aged man was working hard to drill wood to make a fire, maybe the wood was too wet to make the fire go up.
After about half an hour, a wisp of smoke finally came out, and the middle-aged man hurriedly put the Hay King Mars, which had been prepared, and blew lightly, and finally the spark turned into flames, and then burned a raging fire.
Finally built a bonfire, and when he was middle-aged, he began to prepare dinner, and he seemed to be busy, and it seemed that he was really just an ordinary man, and he didn't know how to do advanced spells at all.
After two hours, the middle-aged man brought in a bowl of white rice porridge and a few pieces of dough and put them on the table for the ape spirit to eat together.
The ape spirit ate such food for the first time, and couldn't help but be a little curious, after tasting it, it was not particularly delicious, but the taste was light, and the dough cake was also dry, to be honest, this meal was really difficult to eat.
However, seeing that the middle-aged man eats with relish, the ape spirit can't sweep away the interest of others, after all, this is the middle-aged man who has been busy for two hours to prepare, even if he doesn't want to, he must finish his share.
After eating, the middle-aged man made another pot of tea, poured a cup for the ape spirit, poured a cup for himself, took a sip, and seemed to enjoy it.
Only then did the ape spirit speak, "Junior ape spirit, dare to ask the senior's name?"
The middle-aged man glanced at the ape spirit and asked, "I have long forgotten the name, so you can call me uncle." ”
"That'...... Uncle, have you lived here for a long time?"
The middle-aged man thought about it, nodded and said, "It should have been a long time, and I can't remember the specific time." ”
"It's you, you've gained a lot since you got here. ”
The ape spirit smiled and said, "It's not small." ”
"And how long are you going to stay here?"
The ape spirit looked at the middle-aged man's deep eyes, he didn't know what the other party was thinking, he thought about it, and said, "It's not clear, but I don't think it will be too long." ”
The middle-aged man nodded and said, "Know how to stop in moderation, your heart is not bad, no wonder that kid from the Dragon Emperor actually allowed you to enter the secret realm." ”
A simple sentence is full of too much information, which shocks the ape spirit's heart, it is not a general thing to be able to call the Dragon Emperor a boy, and his identity is at least the predecessor of the Dragon Emperor, could it be said that the middle-aged man in front of him is a dragon?
The middle-aged man looked at the ape spirit's somewhat surprised expression, and said, "But your kid's fortune is also very deep, not only subdued the ice dragon, but also collected the natural formation, these two things alone should be able to make up for your dedication to the dragon clan." ”
The ape spirit has completely understood that the middle-aged man in front of him is a dragon, and he has made up his mind not to stay here anymore, and it is better to leave quickly, otherwise if he continues to collect treasures here, he may anger the middle-aged man, and it will be too simple for the other party to kill him at that time.
The middle-aged man seemed to be able to read what the ape spirit was thinking, shook his head and said, "Don't worry, although you got good things from the secret realm, you also risked your life to get it, even if you deserve it, I won't say anything more." However, I would like to advise you that it is not a wise choice to use up the blessings in one place. ”
The ape spirit nodded and said, "The juniors understand, thank you uncle for reminding me, tomorrow the juniors will go out of the secret realm." ”
The middle-aged man smiled and said, "That's not necessary. You say that as if I was driving you away. I guess that I just said a kind of advice. However, although you have obtained two valuable things, after all, you have earned them with your life, and they cannot be counted to match the benefits you have brought to the dragons. In that case, I'm going to give you a gift as compensation for the benefits you have brought to the dragons. ”
Before the ape spirit could ask what it was, a pink glow emanated from the middle-aged man's body, and the ape spirit found that his body was imprisoned at some point, and he couldn't move, so he could only watch the pink light approach him.
The middle-aged man saw the ape's frightened eyes and said, "Don't worry, this is just a small gift from me, and it may be a little painful in the process, but I believe you should be able to get through it." ”
After hearing this, the ape spirit had already lost consciousness, and the pink light disappeared into the ape spirit's body.
