Chapter 283 Ancient Dragon Court (6)
“Too big!” The two of them sucked in a breath of cold air.
What appeared in front of the two of them was an incomparably large passageway. It was ten times larger than the passageway they had seen before.
Actually, the tunnels they had seen before were already very large, about a hundred zhang in diameter. However, compared to the huge tunnels in front of them, those tunnels were simply like a few small water pipes. The difference between them was like clouds and mud.
“Is this the main road? Could it be that everything we saw before was a branch road?” Chang Wudi opened his mouth wide, his eyes filled with shock. “So we’ve been walking for so long, but we haven’t reached the main passage yet?”
If the incomparably large passageway in front of him was regarded as a vast river, then the small passageways around him were like small streams that converged into the river.
“Why is there such a big passage?” Li Qing frowned. He didn’t expect such a place to appear underground. However, such a large underground passageway did not collapse! It was as if there was a mysterious force guarding it. It was simply inconceivable.
This was no longer a passageway, but an enormous underground world! In this underground world, there were actually dense plants growing in the distance. These plants looked strange and ugly, very different from the plants on the surface.
If it weren’t for their excellent eyesight and being able to see the general shape of this place clearly, no one would have thought that this was a circular passageway.
“Could it be another tunnel drilled by a True Dragon? If that’s the case, then how enormous would this True Dragon be!” Chang Wudi exclaimed.
“The world is so big that there are all sorts of wonders. Perhaps it was formed naturally. Let’s not make wild guesses here. Let’s hurry up and don’t let that damn thing catch up to us.”
Without much hesitation, the two of them lifted their feet and entered this incomparably large main passage, carefully walking forward.
“There are so many strange plants growing here. There will definitely be other underground creatures. Don’t be ambushed by them.” Li Qing warned.
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a rustling sound coming from the plants not far away, as if countless creatures were heading in their direction.
“There are inexplicable creatures!” The two of them felt their hearts tremble as they stared ahead.
Countless ferocious-looking centipedes surged out from the bushes and surrounded them. Each of them was incomparably large, as thick as a thigh, and its entire body was pitch black. It had a thousand feet and eight eyes.
‘”Ah–” Chang Wudi screamed in fright. This thing was so ugly that she was so scared that her face turned pale and she covered her mouth and retched.
“What’s there to be afraid of? Isn’t it just a centipede?” Li Qing shouted.
“But they are too ugly.”
“Are you still afraid of this?” Li Qing was speechless. Where did that brutal bear boy who was carrying a big hammer and smashing people everywhere before run off to? Why did he become so timid at this time?
He wasn’t afraid of these things. Although these centipedes looked disgusting and numerous, they weren’t very powerful and didn’t have much significance in front of Xiantian experts. With a casual palm strike, a giant purple hand appeared. With a “boom” sound, the ground was shattered. It was unknown how many black centipedes had been slapped to death. Black blood splashed everywhere. It was extremely disgusting.
The black blood sprinkled on the ground, emitting a “chi chi” sound, emitting a wave of black smoke, obviously containing poison.
Looking at the struggling centipede on the ground, Li Qing frowned. He knew how powerful his usual power was, but in the end, there were still some black centipedes that hadn’t died.
Evidently, these were the elites of the black centipede, and their strength was even stronger. The shell on their bodies was extremely hard, and even Li Qing’s strength was unable to break through it.
Even if they couldn’t break through the hard shells, the shock could still kill them. Li Qing made another move and slapped down abruptly. He slapped the centipedes three times before killing them all.
“Let’s go, stop screaming! Be careful of attracting more insects!” Li Qing said unhappily. This fellow really didn’t accomplish enough. He was more than defeated, a pig-like teammate.
“Oh.” Chang Wudi stopped screaming and obediently followed behind Li Qing, “When can we go out? I don’t want to stay underground anymore.”
Li Qing couldn’t help but laugh, “Aren’t you known as invincible? Why are you so scared at this time? What kind of hero is this?”
“Who … who’s afraid? I just feel disgusted!” Chang Wudi argued.
This guy was just a dead duck, but he was actually scared to death in his heart. Speaking of which, she was only a nineteen-year-old girl. She was young and spoiled, so she could not force any further.
Along the way, the two of them actually encountered countless underground creatures. What rats, cockroaches, ants, and the like. All of them came in groups. The numbers were extremely terrifying, and they were especially large. Even the originally tiny ants were the size of fists in this place, causing quite a bit of trouble for the two of them.
“Why are there so many underground creatures attacking us?” Li Qing frowned. He saw the Luminous Pearl in Chang Wudi’s hand and said, “Could it be attracted by the light? Put away the Luminous Pearl.”
“Very likely!” Chang Wudi nodded in agreement. Then, he put away the Light Pearl and it instantly turned pitch black without a trace of light.
Sure enough, after putting away the Light Pearl, there were fewer underground creatures that came to attack them.
Just as they were struggling to walk in this huge passageway, Li Qing’s expression suddenly changed and he whispered, “It’s coming!”
“Who?”
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a huge dragon head sticking out from a small passageway in the distance. Wasn’t it the corpse of the True Dragon?
He didn’t expect that it would persevere and chase him all the way here. He didn’t know what kind of tracking method it relied on. It was truly annoying.
“Run!” Chang Wudi reflexed instinctively. Wind blew beneath his feet, and the green wind shoes began to display their might again. With a “whoosh” sound, they rushed forward. In the blink of an eye, they were more than a hundred meters away.
When this fellow saw this situation, he could only flee. Li Qing had long since gotten used to it and was too lazy to condemn her for betraying her teammates. Just as he was about to escape, he suddenly realized that Chang Wudi had actually run back.
“Eh? Why are you back? Could it be that you have a conscience and want to bring me along?” Li Qing was stunned. A Xiantian expert’s strength was so strong that it wasn’t difficult to escape with a single person.
“No, there’s an even more vicious one up ahead!” Chang Wudi pointed to the front and hurriedly shouted.
Li Qing rolled his eyes. He thought that this fellow’s conscience had been discovered. It turned out that there was a greater danger in front of him before he ran back.
Rumble!
A tide-like sound came from the front, and it could be judged that a large number of creatures were rushing towards him.
Li Qing’s expression became serious. There were wolves in front and tigers behind. This time, it was really dangerous.
Not long after, a layer of black waves appeared in front of him. Looking carefully, it was actually a dense swarm of snakes, entangled together and rolling forward. Behind the group of snakes, there was an incomparably large strange snake that was several hundred feet long, and its size was frighteningly large.
Obviously, this was the Snake King of the Black Snake Flock! He commanded the snakes to attack the two humans in front of him.
Generally speaking, the larger a demonic beast was, the stronger it would be. Such a huge snake king was definitely not weak. More importantly, this snake was not as dead as the remains of a true dragon. It was still alive! He could unleash all of his strength!
“This is the Blackwater Snake! It contains poison!” Chang Wudi recognized this snake.
“To be exact, this is a mutated Black Water Snake! It’s even more powerful than an ordinary Black Water Snake!” Li Qing said in a deep voice, “This is troublesome. Although this Snake King’s strength hasn’t reached the Demon Saint realm, he is still considered to be the strongest Demon King. He is no weaker than a Xiantian Tenth Layer expert.”
Right at this moment, the dragon head from behind also emerged from the passageway. Its enormous dragon body was simply like a small mountain range, terrifyingly large.
The two balls of ghost flames flickered in the dark sockets of his eyes, staring at Li Qing and Chang Wudi. The dragon’s head was raised high and it was slowly rising. It was unknown what kind of magical power it had used. The wingless True Dragon’s remains had actually successfully flown up and floated in the sky.
“It can still fly! This is troublesome. It can’t run away anymore. What should we do?” Chang Wudi said anxiously.
“What’s so strange about a dignified True Dragon flying? You have so many trump cards. Don’t tell me you don’t have anything to protect your life?” Li Qing said.
“But what I have saved is useless in this situation! Not to mention the remains of the True Dragon, even the Blackwater Snake King might not be able to kill it.”
‘”Wait a minute, help me block the Black Water Snakes in front of me. I’ll use my trump card to kill that True Dragon remains first! This damn thing has been chasing us for so long, I really think I’m easy to bully! This time, I have to make it look good.” A cold light flashed in Li Qing’s eyes.
Chang Wudi’s eyes lit up, “You still have a trump card? Great, tell me! Let me block these black water snakes first. Don’t worry, I won’t miss a single one.”
Li Qing nodded. Although this fellow was somewhat unreliable and was overwhelmed by danger, his trump card was not weak. He had no choice but to believe her. He said in a low voice, “Remember, don’t look back. If you discover my secret, I will kill you!”
“I definitely won’t look!” Chang Wudi immediately agreed and patted his chest.
Countless Black Water Snakes surged up and surrounded them. They were densely packed, and hundreds of meters in radius, they were all black strips. The Blackwater Snake King stared at the two of them from afar, his eyes flickering with a cold light. He waited for an opportunity to launch a thunderbolt!
