Chapter 16: The Dispersion of Man and Beast
At first glance, hearing Chaoyuan Long's teasing words, although Zhuang You felt a little embarrassed in his heart, he could still understand his different respect and surrender to Xuanhuang. He thought about it for a long time, but he really didn't think of anything to comfort the mixed yuan dragon, so he had to call "Grandpa Long" with gratitude.
Mixed Yuan Long sensed his reverence and gratitude from Zhuang You's shout, and after feeling a little useless in his heart, he put away his stubborn thoughts and said the steps and methods to get out of the hole. After listening to Mixed Yuanlong's narration, Zhuang You's originally sad face had a layer of joy. Seeing the Divine Restoration Artifact quietly erected on the altar, he felt a trace of reluctance. But as the Mixed Yuan Dragon said, the Hongmeng Cave also needs to destroy the Divine Skill and the Four Divine Beasts Divine Consciousness to jointly strengthen the prohibition in the cave.
"Little guy, when you have the power of the five elements and find the return of the four divine beasts and beasts, it will be yours to destroy the divine work. Now, while I haven't put the divine consciousness of the four divine beasts into the Spiritual Realm, you can take the little beast out of the hole in the secret passage of the altar. I've covered up your breath for you and the Xuanmang Sword. Don't use the Xuanmang Sword as a last resort. ”
Zhuang You thanked the Mixed Yuan Dragon, holding the little beast in one hand, and reaching into the colorful glow emitted by the Divine Skill of Extinguishing with the other. He only felt that in front of him, a man and a beast had fallen into the tunnel of the cave temporarily formed by the multicolored glow under the altar. As his figure moved forward, the multicolored glow tunnel disappeared immediately after him. If he looked back, he would find that the cold and solid stone had been restored to its original state, and there was no trace of a tunnel.
"Poof—"
Zhuang You only felt that it was dark in front of him, and the cold wind and the smell of water came to the surface. Before he could come to his senses, he and the little beast had fallen from the wall formed by the bell stone into the turbulent dark river. He hurriedly mobilized Yuan Li, trying to compete with the tearing force under the dark river and get rid of the crisis of going with the flow. But no matter how hard he tried, he was still bound by the turbulent water and rushed into the distance.
But the little beast bit Zhuang You's shirt and refused to let go. Although Zhuang You had the intention to hold the little beast in his arms, the turbulent water still separated them. The little beast struggled up and down the dark river, and as soon as it showed its head, it was caught under the water again by the undercurrent before it could make a whining sound.
Zhuang You struggled to swim towards the little beast, but the two tributary whirlpools that appeared in front of him swallowed one man and one beast respectively. The little beast struggled at the edge of the whirlpool, and on several occasions it rushed to the edge of the whirlpool and grabbed the bell stone that was soaked in water like a spike. But before the little beast could breathe a sigh, Zhong Rushi couldn't withstand the agitation force coming from its body, and broke off with a clatter.
At the moment when Zhong Rushi fell into the water, the eyebrows of the little beast spontaneously shè out of an invisible rune. This rune is the Chaos Talisman hidden in the depths of the soul of the little beast. If Zhuang You's consciousness broke through to the level of divine consciousness, he would be able to see that this rune and the mystical rune in his Origin Pill came from the same source, but there was no mysteries of the latter.
At the moment when the little beast was swept into the whirlpool, the Chaos Talisman also broke through the obstruction of the void and suddenly entered Zhuang You's body. Before Zhuang You's consciousness could notice it, the Xuan Arcane Rune came out of his Origin Pill, and then emitted a misty blue light to wrap the Chaos Talisman. This kind of mistake would rather kill a thousand than let go of a dangerous package, so that the little beast and Zhuang You were cut off from the wonderful connection of their hearts and minds.
Seeing the Chaos Talisman that collided in the misty blue light, the Chaos Yuan Dragon sighed with emotion. Compared to the Chaos Beast, Xuanhuang still thinks a little higher of him. Although the Chaos God became his mount after being suppressed by Xuanhuang in ancient times, the demonic beast aura derived from the origin of life always made him a little wary.
Glancing at the Chaos Talisman that was being purified of demonic energy, the Chaos Yuan Dragon yawned lazily, then closed his eyes and fell into a state of recuperation. He knew that from the moment the Split Spirit was broken, he had chosen a path of no return to accompany Zhuang You to escape the pursuit. He only hoped that Zhuang You could grow up earlier, reach the level of Xuanhuang back then, and let his two spirits become one.
"Woo ......"
Hearing the reluctant whimpering sound of the little beast, Zhuang You couldn't help but exhale. His shout of "Little Beast" still echoed above the dark river, and the weak white shadow protected by the demonic power instantly disappeared into the whirlpool and disappeared. A heart-wrenching pain spread through his heart, and his belief that he still wanted to struggle out of the whirlpool lost his momentum.
"Little Bably—"
Zhuang You burst into tears and shouted unwillingly again at the dark river where there was only the sound of roaring water. But even as he shouted out his throat, only his remorseful echo echoed above the great dark river.
"Little one, that little beast that looks like a dog and is not a dog has a lot to do with you. If there is a fate, you will naturally meet again. At this time, you should ask for more blessings. Stop yelling and disturbing my old man's sleep. ”
As soon as the comfort and dissatisfaction of the mixed yuan dragon sounded in his heart, Zhuang You saw that his body had been swept into a whirlpool with huge suction power. From the fluctuations that came out of the loophole-like whirlpool, he sensed the danger implied in it, the tearing power and the strength of the Xuanyuan Realm's late stage of the three-rank heavenly master.
At this time, he didn't want to give his life here in vain. After all, he still has the blood revenge of his parents and Xuanhuang's entrustment. So, he hurriedly ran the Dragon Trick and protected the Xuanmang Sword wrapped in Yuan Force in front of him. With the Xuanmang Sword in the seat of the Mixed Yuan Dragon, there was a trace of spirit more than before, and the sword body flowed with energy fluctuations where ice blue and flame were mutually reinforcing. I saw that they cooperated with each other to form a circle of light clothes larger than him on the surface of Zhuang You's body, and operated on their own to resist the invasion of external forces.
The last shred of light emanating from the sword body disappeared with Zhuang You's braided sky, which was soaked by the river. The surging dark river is still rampaging in the darkness of the cave. It's just that the whirlpool that devoured Zhuang You and the little babeast just now slowly moved its direction. If someone falls into the whirlpool again, the exit will definitely not be the same as Zhuang You and Xiaoba Beast. This is the natural force of the Heavenly Dao. Unless a powerful person like Xuanhuang can change it.
Despite the sword protection of the Xuanmang Sword, Zhuang You still couldn't withstand the huge twisting force of the whirlpool. Before the undercurrent could calm down, his consciousness had passed out. When he woke up again, he would find that he had been sent to the Dragon Pond where he had obtained the Xuanmang Sword.
"Little Bably—"
When his slumber consciousness was awakened by the cold water, his mind immediately swirled with the image of the little beast being swallowed by the whirlpool. He felt the light of the sun on his face, and wanted to raise his head slightly to see what was going on. But Zhuang Xiaotian had spoken to him in time to stop his dangerous actions that would blind him.
He immersed his head in the water, felt the gentle peck and bite of the fish swimming in the water, and quietly waited for the adjustment period of his eyes to the light world to end as soon as possible.
This should be about the same, right?
Zhuang You slowly raised his head from the water and slowly opened his eyes tentatively. After a moment of trance, the scenery that came into view slowly became clearer. When he saw the surrounding scenery and the Longtan that sent him to the outside world, his tears couldn't stop running down his cheeks, and the twilight past related to Longtan and the Xuanmang Sword surfaced in front of him.
The Mixed Yuan Dragon, who was still dozing off, was awakened by the huge mood swings coming from Zhuang You's consciousness. He was about to tease Zhuang You for a few words, but before the words could be spoken, he swallowed back stiffly. Because his divine consciousness followed Zhuang You's memory, he slowly returned to those who were before he entered the Hongmeng Cave......
