Chapter Thirty-Nine: A Hundred Years of Sleep Remains
The secret room dug out by the dragon's blood toad was the size of several houses of ordinary people, but it was nothing compared to its size, Gu Xuyao walked in the corridor where the three of them could walk side by side, and he had been wondering how it entered the secret room, but soon he gave up thinking about this problem, and when the faint light outside came in through the Yongdao entrance, he pulled out the hug moon.
Ready for everything, Gu Xuyao rushed out of the Yongdao, and the body that had just reached the third layer of the Transformation Source Realm was full of unprecedented power, and due to the improvement of Gu Xuyao's own strength, the flickering aura on the Moon Holding Blade kept jumping, as if he could kill the enemy at any time under Gu Xuyao's command.
"Huh......" and then there was nothing outside, the empty mountain was full of potholes, and I don't know what caused this kind of surface, and I could vaguely see the huge dragon blood toad footprints on the ground, but it seemed to have been left a long time ago.
"How could it be...... ...... like this" The unexpected silence and emptiness made Gu Xuyao feel a little inexplicably panicked, and there seemed to be countless ghosts swimming in the clouds, but when he looked closely, there was actually nothing.
There was a special body odor of dragon's blood toad left in the air, faint, not much. Gu Xuyao began to wander around after staying for a few breaths.
It didn't take long for Gu Xuyao to determine that this must be the place where the dragon's blood toad rests on weekdays, there are traces of venom left by it everywhere, and the stench left in the air is mainly provided by them.
"How many years have I been asleep, the venom on the dragon's blood toad is difficult to get rid of, even a storage like Green Xiaoding has to spend all his strength to purify the toxin, but now they are all completely volatilized......"
I walked while thinking about it. Suddenly, there was another loud noise in front of him, just like the first sound Gu Xuyao heard.
He frowned slightly, and hurried over, and the clouds and mist were gradually removed, revealing the scene behind him, but it was okay not to look at it, but it made Gu Xuyao stunned again.
Lying in front of him at this time was a huge skeleton, as white as jade, and the sleeping posture of the skeleton was very perfect, as if he was just sleeping. Gu Xuyao is experienced. By the time he got to the leg bone of the skeleton, it was already determined. If this skeleton deity stood up, the height should be about 100 zhang, and at the same time, he also had a faint guess in his heart.
"Look at the shape of this skeleton, nine times out of ten it is the ...... of the dragon blood toad," he swallowed a mouthful of saliva while looking at Gu Xuyao. Because he saw obvious tooth marks on the skeleton. In some of the tricky parts, there are still blackened pieces of minced flesh. All of this shows that the dragon blood toad was actually eaten by another demon beast!
"Brother, brother...... Could this be that ugly monster......" Mengmeng seems to have improved her judgment of things after experiencing the improvement of her cultivation, and Gu Xuyao secretly guessed that she also thought of something not long after.
"If I'm right. That's what it is, no, it should be said, it used to be. He gently touched the bones of the dragon blood toad, the thick skeleton was extremely hard, even Gu Xuyao, who had cultivated to the third layer of the Transformation Source Realm at this time, did not have the confidence to be able to split this bone with the moon, so who could eat the living dragon blood toad?
"......Squeak" At this time, Xiao Hei also woke up, it has been hiding in Meng Meng's arms, at this time the eyes of the two looked at it, and they found that Xiao Hei seemed to be taken care of by the light cocoon, and its appearance had changed at this time.
Originally, Xiao Hei was just an ordinary black rock rat, but now after some kind of mutation, scales similar to armor have grown on its back, and its body has gradually turned gray, two teeth stick out from the tip of its mouth, and its front paws, which are already sharp enough, are even more cold at this time, but no matter what its appearance has become, Xiao Hei's stunned expression has not changed, at this time it looks left and right with wide eyes, and finds that it is not dead and grins innocently.
Seeing that her little black was not harmed, she didn't care even if it changed her appearance, and soon she forgot about the huge skeleton in front of her, and immersed herself in the joy of rebirth with Xiao Hei. But in fact, at this time, it is indeed time to celebrate, and if the rest of the life after the catastrophe and the improvement of cultivation are put on other monks, I am afraid that they will laugh in their dreams.
"Boom!" At this time, the sound like a dragon's blood toad walking came again, according to the direction of the sound wave, the place where the sound came out was already very close to Gu Xuyao, he frowned and put down the dragon's blood toad for the time being, and ran forward following the sound.
The body of the dragon's blood toad is very huge, it naturally needs space to move when it is lying down, this large empty valley is its habitat, and the underground is the hatching room, at this time Gu Xuyao ran all the way and did not have anything worth noting, until there was a loud noise again in front of him, he did not know that it was not far from the destination.
The rumbling sound began to pour down like raindrops, which gave Gu Xuyao a bad premonition, and Meng Meng and Xiao Hei also seemed to feel that something was wrong, they put away their frolicking and sat quietly on Gu Xuyao's shoulder.
The smoke and dust were billowing and finally came to the place where the sound came from, but things were not as bad as imagined, and I don't know what day it was, Gu Xuyao had just woken up, and some of the mountains in this foggy sea and mountain began to collapse, and the rumbling sound was made by the boulder falling from the sky.
It seemed to be sunset outside, and the afterglow of the setting sun shone in through the top of the collapsed mountain, and the thick fog in the air dispersed under the continuous wind blowing.
The gap is widening, and more and more rubble is falling, and so is the speed at which it is collapsing. Gu Xuyao knew that this was a good opportunity to leave the Foggy Sea Mountain, although the owner of the dragon blood toad here had died, the character who ate the dragon blood toad was still missing, maybe it would appear in the next breath.
It's just that Gu Xuyao had just thought about getting out of this gap when the voice outside immediately stopped his movements.
"Look! The Foggy Sea Mountain is really collapsing! Go and tell the others! The dragon blood toad has really been killed, and the Fog Sea Mountain will disappear from now on!"
It was obvious that it was a person from Changhepo, and after a little thought, Gu Xuyao decided not to leave at this time, but left the foot of the collapsed mountain, and smashed open the rock wall with one punch to form a cave.
"The elite team was almost wiped out that day, but there were still people who escaped, and I accidentally led to the sea of parasites, at that time, many people already thought that I was part of the destruction of their plan, and then everyone thought that I was dead, and it was over, at this time, if they saw me go out alive and Uncle Mo and the others were dead, then they would definitely speculate for no reason, which would definitely cause a lot of unnecessary trouble......" Gu Xuyao secretly thought, he didn't want his whereabouts to be exposed, but it was really not what he thought about being helplessly involved in various wars again and again, since he could grasp it this time, he definitely didn't want to expose himself.
The deafening rumble intensified, and in a short time it ended again, followed by the cheers of the monks of the Long River Slope, no less than the rumbling. In the years that the dragon-blooded toad has been doing evil, I don't know how many monks have accumulated endless anger in their hearts, and at this time, when they heard that the dragon-blooded toad seemed to be dead, everyone would be excited.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for them to find the skeleton of the dragon's blood toad, and after repeated determination, the cheers almost dispersed the remaining dense fog, in fact, Gu Xuyao could understand the mood of the monk of Changhepo very well, this was an outburst after being oppressed for too long, catharsis. But no matter what, these are not his concerns, since he has avoided the eyes and ears of these monks, then he naturally slipped out of the foggy sea and mountains through the opening.
The rocky world outside is in the light of the moonlight, although the moonlight here is not beautiful, but for this person who doesn't know how long he has been asleep, it is already a luxury enjoyment.
Although Wuhai Mountain did not have the evil occupation of the dragon's blood toad, the power that restricted flight was still there, and the first thing Gu Xuyao did after coming out was to float lightly in the air, take a deep breath, and stretch his waist.
"Now is the time to enjoy the aftermath of the catastrophe......
After sighing for a while, Gu Xuyao eased up, glanced at Meng Meng who was still immersed in joy on his shoulder, he smiled knowingly, and slowly flew in the direction of Xishan City.
In the cultivation realm, the news spread extremely quickly, especially the good news, the news of the eradication of the dragon-blooded toad quickly spread throughout the entire Changhepo area, and the five cities here, countless monks began a cheerful celebration ceremony, and the bones of the dragon-blooded toad were also dragged out of the foggy sea and mountains by them, and specially placed in a huge altar made of stones.
However, when these things were done, Gu Xuyao was already no longer in Xishan City, and after low-key selling some of the toad treasures he got from the Foggy Sea and Mountains, he already had enough yuan stones for a long trip, not only that, but he also bought a black shuttle in the largest store in Changhepo, so that Meng Meng and Xiao Hei enjoyed the food in the best inn in Changhepo for many days before he set off slowly.
"Demon Valley is still so far away from here, it's really unthinkable......" Looking at the map in his hand, Gu Xuyao was a little helpless, which is why he is not in a hurry, there is no shortcut for monks who are not high in cultivation.
"Brother, what kind of chicken did you come last time, did you help Mengmeng bring a hundred copies?" Although Mengmeng has a body of cultivation, she is still not very concerned about cultivation, and at the same time, she can cultivate power and Taoism, she has such a superb talent, but she can only teach her a few introductory spells Gu Xuyao, according to her words: With her brother here, Mengmeng is not afraid of anything!
