The Heavenly Saber Novel - Chapter 279

Chapter 279 Ancient Dragon Court (2)

In the next few days, they kept searching for the True Dragon’s nest. In the end, something shocking happened to them. The further they went, the more giant tunnels they encountered.

These tunnels were large and small. The diameter of these tunnels was several hundred zhang, and the diameter of the tunnels was several hundred zhang. Countless circular tunnels, large and small, crisscrossed each other, forming such a complicated underground labyrinth.

This caused the two of them to be somewhat confused. What kind of place was this? Why are there so many tunnels? Could it be that there are many True Dragons in this nest?

“Or could it be that there is a True Dragon here that is more lively and loves to drill into the ground, so it has drilled out so many circular passages?” Li Qing couldn’t help but guess.

Even he didn’t believe this speculation. I’ve never heard of a true dragon that likes to drill into the ground, let alone drill out tunnels of different shapes and sizes.

“I feel like we’ve arrived at an amazing place. There shouldn’t be any danger inside, right?” Chang Wudi muttered softly.

“You crow mouth, don’t talk nonsense.” Li Qing glared at her.

“I’m not spouting nonsense!” Chang Wudi argued, “Someone has found a large True Dragon nest in another place before. There are traces of at least four True Dragons moving inside. This place seems to be much larger than the True Dragon nest from before.”

“What’s the result?”

“As a result, many people died! Because there is great danger inside!”

“What danger?”

“I’m not too sure about the specifics. They are very secretive and won’t spread the word. They only know that a peerless expert entered with a Dao Artifact in his hand. A heaven-shaking battle broke out and wiped out a large mountain range on the ground.”

“So terrifying! A large mountain range has been wiped out!” Li Qing was shocked, and his gaze towards these passageways was somewhat uneasy. One could imagine how high-end this level of battle was. This kind of place didn’t seem to be something people like them should come to.

“You have never seen a real Dao Artifact, you don’t understand its true power at all! It’s easy to wipe out an entire mountain range.” Chang Wudi curled his lips, as if he was mocking Li Qing for being ignorant. “If a Dao Artifact displayed its full power in the hands of a peerless expert, then it would simply have the power to destroy heaven and earth.”

Seeing her expression, Li Qing couldn’t help but laugh inwardly. Haven’t he seen a Dao Artifact before? He was joking, he had several of them in his hands! However, his strength was too weak to unleash the full might of these peerless Dao Artifacts.

The two of them continued to walk forward while bickering.

Although they heard Chang Wudi say that there might be great dangers inside, they were still unable to stop the curiosity in their hearts. When the two of them entered the treasure ground, it was impossible for them to give up so easily.

People die for wealth, birds die for food, not to mention Chang Wudi, a little miser.

When they reached such a deep underground place, Li Qing and Chang Wudi actually discovered that the water here was becoming less and less. It completely did not conform to the rules of water flowing downwards. The lake water that had just been absorbed by them did not know where they had gone.

In the end, the two of them walked out of the water completely and stepped onto the firm ground. They immediately used their true essence to vaporize the water and their bodies became much more refreshed.

Chang Wudi put the Water Avoidance Pearl into his interspatial ring and complained, “I finally left the damn water! My body is sticky, it’s too uncomfortable.”

“Let’s go. I feel like we’re almost at the end. We haven’t encountered any danger for such a long time. I wonder what the situation will be like in the depths.” Li Qing said.

They continued to explore and carefully walked for a while. Suddenly, they felt a strange wind blowing out from the depths of the darkness.

Under the illumination of the Night Pearl, one could see that this strange wind had actually taken on a strange green color. Li Qing unconsciously used his protective true essence to protect his body. He felt that these gases should be harmful.

“It stinks!” Chang Wudi sniffed and said, “Why do you feel a little dizzy?”

“Not good, these gases are corpse energy! Quickly use your true essence to protect your body!” Li Qing shouted, “You actually dare to smell it directly? I really admire your courage!”

Chang Wudi’s face was shocked. He immediately propped up a layer of clear light to protect himself and said loudly, “How do I know what kind of gas these are? A Xiantian expert is invulnerable to all poisons. Do you need to be so careful?”

However, as soon as he finished speaking, something shocking happened. This green corpse energy blew on the layer of clear light on Chang Wudi’s body, and it actually began to corrode his protective true essence, producing a “sizzling” sound.

This layer of pure light was extremely mysterious and mysterious. It was the true essence cultivated by the True Scriptures. Previously, even Li Qing was unable to catch her. He did not expect that he would be unable to resist this layer of corpse energy. One could imagine how powerful the power of this layer of corpse energy was.

Chang Wudi’s face started to sweat as he continued to replenish his True Essence onto the layer of light protecting his body.

On the other hand, Li Qing was much more relaxed. This layer of corpse energy could also corrode his purple true essence, but its effect was much weaker. It could be almost negligible. After all, his true essence was too high quality. The Undying True Devil Technique, coupled with the Saint grade Xiantian Foundation, did not have many poisonous gases that could corrode his true essence in the world.

“I feel like I’m about to die!” Chang Wudi’s face was pale. His True Essence had been consumed very quickly. In addition, he had inhaled a mouthful of corpse energy into his body, causing him to feel dizzy.

Seeing that she was about to be exposed to the Corpse Qi and corroded by it, she couldn’t help but shed tears of regret, “Am I going to die here? Wuuuuuu–”

“You idiot, don’t you have ten-thousand-year-old spirit milk? If you can’t hold on, take a drop!” Li Qing scolded.

“Yi, that’s right. Thank you for your reminder!” Chang Wudi came to his senses and wiped away his tears. He immediately took out a small porcelain bottle from his interspatial ring and swallowed a drop of milky white liquid.

Very quickly, her pale face turned red, and she immediately became vigorous and energetic.

“Wahaha–I don’t need to die!” Chang Wudi shouted excitedly, proudly and proudly.

“Don’t be stunned. Don’t tell me your life isn’t long enough. Let’s hurry up and rush over this part of the road.” Li Qing said unhappily.

Green corpse energy surged out from the depths of the darkness like a tidal wave. They faced great resistance as they advanced, and their speed was not fast. They went forward bit by bit with all their might.

In the end, they had a hard time walking this distance. The terrifying corpse energy had completely passed, and the air had returned to its freshness. They had regained their safety.

“You scared me to death. Why is there a sudden surge of corpse qi coming out of this place?” Chang Wudi’s heart lingered in fear.

“This corpse energy is so powerful, coupled with the fact that this place is a True Dragon’s nest, could it be that there is a True Dragon’s corpse inside?” Li Qing guessed.

“Really? True dragon remains? Don’t scare me. How could such an ancient and precious thing be encountered by us?” Chang Wudi revealed a shocked expression.

The True Dragon was the direct descendant of the Ancient Ancestral Dragon. It was the most powerful divine beast in the world. When it reached adulthood, it could at least reach the Demon Saint realm, and some of it could even reach the legendary Demon God realm. Its talent was simply frighteningly high.

The Demon Saint was equivalent to a human Void Realm expert, while the Demon God was even more powerful, equivalent to a human Dao Realm expert.

True dragons weren’t much in number in the Ancient Era, and they were basically extinct now. It was almost impossible to find a True Dragon corpse.

“It’s hard to say. There are so many underground tunnels in this place. Perhaps there will be a True Dragon remains left behind.” Li Qing said.

“If we really have the remains of a True Dragon, wouldn’t it be a fortune if we were to obtain them?” Chang Wudi jumped in excitedly.

‘”Don’t be happy too early. Even if there are True Dragon remains in this place, it’s hard to say if we can get them. Just think about the burst of corpse energy that almost killed you. You can imagine how dangerous this place is.”

“That’s right.” Chang Wudi immediately let out a breath and revealed a conflicted expression.

“Let’s go. It’s useless for us to make wild guesses here. It’s better to hurry inside and look for it.”

…

They thought that the burst of corpse energy from earlier would be fine, but things were beyond their expectations. This place was far more difficult than they had imagined. A wave after wave of green corpse energy surged out, like a boundless wave, extremely terrifying. The two of them desperately propped up their True Essence and tried their best to resist the corrosion of the corpse energy.

Li Qing didn’t have any problems. Holding a spirit stone in his hand could replenish his consumption. However, Chang Wudi would often be unable to withstand it, and he would often need to use ten thousand year old spirit milk to recover his true essence.

However, the ten-thousand-year-old spirit milk in her porcelain bottle was not endless. After all, this kind of thing was too precious, and with her family background, she did not have much. Unfortunately, her True Essence was consumed very quickly. Even a wave of Corpse Qi would need a few drops of Ten Thousand Year Spirit Milk to sustain it. Soon, the Ten Thousand Year Spirit Milk in the porcelain bottle reached its bottom.

“It’s over, it’s over. I’ve used up all my 10,000-year-old spirit milk. What should I do now?” Chang Wudi rolled his eyes and said, “I still have treasures! Why didn’t I think of them?”

This time, she became smarter. She immediately took out a large cauldron and flew over her head. A layer of green light shield hung down, blocking the surrounding corpse energy.

“There should be no problem this time, right?” She breathed a sigh of relief.

However, she hadn’t been happy for too long, but she discovered that the problem was even greater. Because this large cauldron required a large amount of True Essence, it felt that it was consuming True Essence faster than before. Moreover, the green corpse energy continuously surged over, grinding away the Spiritual Light on the large cauldron and consuming True Essence to replenish it.

“Wow, I’m really going to die this time.” Chang Wudi burst into tears and snot.

“Alas, forget it. Seeing how pitiful you are, I will barely save you.” Li Qing helplessly looked at this idiot and took out a small porcelain bottle. The bottle was filled with 10,000-year-old spirit milk.
