After the two left the Spirit Devouring Beetles, the originally small swarm of Spirit Devouring Beetles suddenly filled up the entire valley. It was almost the same as the scene from before. If Nangong Shi and Luo Cheng returned here once again, they would probably be shocked by this scene.
The deeper they went, the thicker the fog became. All he could see were the two beams of light. The sense of crisis in Nangong Shi's heart did not lessen, but grew heavier and heavier. Nangong Shi covered his entire body with Soul force and was prepared to deal with any situation that arose.
"Do you feel a bit depressed? And why do I keep having a bad premonition? "
While walking, the Fire-Spitting Lion suddenly spoke out.
"You felt it too?" After Nangong Shi heard this, he frowned and asked Fire-Spitting Lion.
"Yeah, we beasts are born with a stronger sense of crisis. The deeper I went, the more uneasy I felt. Just like how I stepped into the domain of another beast. Moreover, it's a very strong one. "
The Fire-Spitting Lion closed his eyes and carefully sensed for a while, then said.
"The moment I stepped foot in here, I felt very depressed. But the spiritual sense suppression here is too strong, so I am unable to use my spiritual sense to investigate. The naked eye could only see a few meters away. Fire-Spitting Lion, you have lived for thousands of years, do you know the origin of this Death Ridge? "
From the looks of it, it was indeed a bit unusual. Nangong Shi thought for a while, then asked the Fire-Spitting Lion.
"Bother Shi, why have I not sensed that something is amiss? "It's just that the mist is too thick."
Seeing that Nangong Shi and the Fire-Spitting Lion had stopped, Luo Cheng turned around and asked.
"I don't know either. Maybe I'm too sensitive."
Nangong Shi laughed bitterly, then looked at the Fire-Spitting Lion, intending to seek its opinion.
"This Mountain of Death has existed since I was born. This is the first time I've been here. I don't know exactly what. Don't count on me. I haven't recovered much of my strength yet. I can't even beat any of you in a one-on-one fight. I just tried it, and I can't see very far. "
The Fire-Spitting Lion looked at Nangong Shi and Luo Cheng, and said gloomily.
"Let's go, all of you should be careful." Since this place was called the 'Death's Ridge', it had to be extremely powerful. "We can't be careless."
Seeing that the Fire-Spitting Lion did not give him much information, Nangong Shi could only ask.
The surrounding fog was becoming denser and denser, as if it was about to solidify. Only the two bright lights were still shining in the fog.
"Stop!"
As he was walking, Nangong Shi suddenly shouted.
"What's wrong, Bother Shi?"
Luo Cheng who was about to step forward, was pulled back, and asked with a puzzled expression.
"That's not right!" We can't go any further. I feel that if we go any further, we'll die here! "
Nangong Shi said word by word with a serious expression.
"Fire-Spitting Lion, what's wrong with you?"
After Nangong Shi finished speaking, he saw the Fire-Spitting Lion began to tremble all over.
"Quick!" Come on, I feel something coming our way. Besides, I seem to have been suppressed. I have to return to my original form! "
After the Fire-Spitting Lion finished speaking, it raised its head and roared, and its body suddenly turned into a beast, and looked ahead with its eyes filled with fear. At that moment, the two lights in the fog suddenly became brighter. As for the surrounding fog, it started to slowly dissipate.
"Bother Cheng! "Let's go!"
Nangong Shi pulled Luo Cheng and retreated backwards.
Rumble …
A roar suddenly came from the sky and the Fire-Spitting Lion in the air fell onto the ground with a bang. Her four limbs stuck to the ground, and her entire body was trembling uncontrollably.
"Fire-Spitting Lion!"
Seeing the Fire-Spitting Lion suddenly fall, Nangong Shi and Luo Cheng immediately ran towards the ground.
"Dragon … It's a dragon's roar!"
The Fire-Spitting Lion laid prostrate on the ground, her eyes shut tight as she asked while trembling.
What! Dragon Roar!
Nangong Shi was shocked, but he did not question the Fire-Spitting Lion's words. After all, the Fire-Spitting Lion was a beast, and in this place where she could not use her consciousness, its reaction towards its own kind was much stronger than her own.
"Small human, hmm, and a Fire-Spitting Lion. "Why did you come here to disturb my rest?"
Just as Nangong Shi finished thinking, a deep voice came from behind him. Nangong Shi's body clearly felt the strong gravity, as if he had sunk into a quagmire. Cold sweat trickled down Nangong Shi's forehead as he turned his head with much difficulty.
Oh my god! These were not two beams of light, but its eyes! He saw a white dragon, roughly a hundred meters long, floating in the air. Its scales were shiny, and its two whiskers were as thick as wrists. Its lantern-sized eyes shone with a breathtaking light. No wonder he felt that something wasn't right from the start. Wasn't there a dragon's might around the dragon?
"You, the insignificant human, actually dared to not answer my question. Is this a provocation to my patience? "
Bai Long said as he looked at Nangong Shi with torch-like eyes.
"Lord Dragon King, we did not intend to offend you. We are only here to find my parents. I hope that Lord Dragon King can give us some instructions. "
Nangong Shi clenched his teeth, bowed to Bai Long and said.
"I am not the Dragon King. My father is the Dragon King." I've rested here for hundreds of years, but I've never seen anyone enter. Wait … you said you came to see your parents? Is it a man and a woman? "
The white dragon's voice was like thunder, crackling in the air. Nangong Shi felt as if lightning was striking beside his ears.
"Reporting to Lord Dragon, yes."
Nangong Shi smiled bitterly. If it wasn't a man and a woman, then what else could it be?
"So you are their child. Well, I saw you a few days ago. Don't call me an adult or not, my name is Qing Zhui. "
Bai Long seemed to have thought of something and started to speak.
"May I ask Senior Long … Qing Zhui, do you know where my parents went?"
Hearing that Qing Zhui knew of his parents' whereabouts, Nangong Shi became so excited that he hurriedly asked.
"Well, I can tell you, but you have to promise me one thing."
Qing Zhui turned his two large eyeballs, looked at Nangong Shi and said.
"Senior Qing Zhui, you are so resourceful, how can I help you? I wonder what Senior Qing Zhui needs me to do for you? "
Nangong Shi was a little confused, and asked probingly.
"When I need your help, I will tell you. Alright, come with me now. I'll take you guys. "
Qing Zhui took a deep breath to the sky, and the surrounding dense fog was sucked into Qing Zhui's mouth, and his surroundings became clear, revealing his original appearance. As for Qing Zhui, after he finished absorbing the mist, his body slowly became smaller. Finally, he turned into a middle-aged man and stood in front of Nangong Shi. His grave face was sharp and sharp, revealing a devilish beauty.
"Senior Qing Zhui, you … you can transform into a human form."
Nangong Shi swallowed, and said to Qing Zhui.
"At that time, of course. I had cultivated for several thousand years, how could I not be able to transform?" "Let's go, I'll take you to your parents."
After Qing Zhui finished speaking, he glanced at the Fire-Spitting Lion that was still crawling on the ground, and revealed a surprised expression, but a flash passed by. As if he had thought of something interesting, the body that had just turned around turned back.
"Walking is too slow, let's go by it."
After Qing Zhui finished speaking, his body suddenly appeared on the Fire-Spitting Lion's body, and he casually patted it.
"This …"
Nangong Shi smiled bitterly at the Fire-Spitting Lion, only to see its eyes glowing with a white light, its expression extremely pitiful.
"Come on up, we'll be faster."
Qing Zhui said to Nangong Shi, and then with a wave of his hand, he sucked Nangong Shi and Luo Cheng onto the Fire-Spitting Lion's back.
"Hurry up and fly!"
After Nangong Shi and Luo Cheng settled themselves in their seats, Qing Zhui patted the Fire-Spitting Lion's head and shouted.
"Howl."
The Fire-Spitting Lion howled to the sky, and flew according to the direction Qing Zhui pointed to.
