Wen Yan came to me. Her body was trembling and she seemed very scared. She said softly: "Brother Yeyu, is it possible that this is the dragon's lair? Will we die here?"
I held her hand and comforted her: "Don't worry, Wen Yan, we won't die here. Even if this is the dragon's lair, I guess it is at the end of its strength, otherwise it wouldn't use such despicable means to capture us." Come on, it can capture us openly."
"Yes, Brother Ye Yu is right. If it is powerful, it is entirely possible to capture us directly without relying on the fog to capture people secretly." Xue Shan said.
"It's not yet certain whether that dragon is causing trouble. Let's restore our strength first," Yun Chan said.
Among all people, my strength recovered the fastest. I could not only recover the power of the netherworld from the barbecue just now, but also recover from the blood essence and blood of the monsters I had absorbed before. Soon my power of the netherworld returned to its peak. Yun Chan continued to release the power of the netherworld to restore everyone's power. After half an hour, everyone's power of the netherworld was almost restored.
Wen Yan kept holding my hand tightly. Her hand turned from cold at first to warm. I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional. She never let go. I guess she may have forgotten because she was too scared. Letting go of my hand, my palms couldn't help but sweat, but Wen Yan didn't seem to care.
I expanded the range of the mythical beast's flame and found that we were in a huge cave. Under the mythical beast's flame, the cave was filled with corpses of monsters and beasts, which made people shudder.
"Why are there so many monster skeletons? Are these monsters also captured by the dragon?" Wen Yan said in a trembling voice. Others also shuddered. This is how many monsters have been poisoned by it. No wonder those sea monsters dare not approach the island. It should be that all the monsters near the island have been killed, causing other sea monsters to stay away. This island.
There was still a vast expanse of white outside the flames of the mythical beasts. I used the power of the netherworld to inject the flames of the mythical beasts, trying my best to expand the scope of the flames. The cave was very large, and the entire cave was filled with monster beast skeletons. The number was hard to count. Everyone was frightened and frightened. They all hid behind me. I walked in front, exploring every corner of the cave step by step. Every few steps I took, I found a new monster skeleton. Suddenly, I felt the breath of the monster at the edge of the flame, or more accurately, the breath of the blood of the beast.
Isn't that dragon dead yet? I muttered in my heart, I was scared and excited at the same time. The essence and blood of mythical beasts, this is what I dream of, and I can actually meet it here, but what if the other party is a living dragon?
I suddenly stopped and said, "Everyone, stay back, there may be danger ahead."
When everyone heard my words, they subconsciously took a few steps back. Only Wen Yan still held my hand tightly and remained motionless. I walked forward with Wen Yan. Under the light of the fire, a huge white bone appeared in front of us. The dragon's horns were still clearly visible. In the middle of the huge dragon bone, there was a bead shining. I could clearly feel the inside. I was about to reach out and put it into the storage bag with the scent of the essence and blood of the mythical beast, but the bead suddenly emitted a dazzling light, and a huge shadow formed in the cave. It was a dragon-like figure whose whole body was covered with golden-green scales. The snake-like creature with two huge dragon horns on top of its head looked exactly like what we saw that night when I cleared the fog.
"It turns out it's causing trouble!" I said, and immediately used the "Qinglong Jue" to absorb all the essence and blood of the mythical beast in the bead. When absorbing the essence and blood of the mythical beast, I felt that there was not only the essence and blood of the mythical beast in the bead, but also other things. The essence and blood of the monster beast. I absorbed the essence and blood with all my strength. The pale golden bones appeared again. The bones absorbed all the essence and blood of the monster in an instant like a baby craving for milk. The color of the pale golden bones became much darker. I did not stop. , continuing to absorb other blood essence in the beads.
Everyone else looked at me in surprise, not daring to make any move. As time passed, everyone seemed to have a tacit understanding. They remained motionless, waiting for the blood of the monster beasts in the beads to be absorbed completely. Three hours passed before I completely absorbed the monster blood essence in the beads, and the beads disappeared.
At this moment, all the surrounding fog dissipated, and there was nothing in the cave except countless monster beast skeletons and some tree roots. "Brother Ye Yu, what happened to that bead just now?" Yun Chan asked.
"And how did you make that bead disappear just now?" Xue Shan also said quickly.
I looked at everything around me and said, "I probably already know the secret of the mist. Have you seen the huge skeleton? It should be the skeleton of the dragon, and the bead should be the essence and blood left after the death of the dragon." Although the dragon is dead, the bead seems to still have some consciousness. It controls these tree roots to form the fog on the island, captures the monsters in the fog here, absorbs their essence and blood, and intends to restore its true form. However, it is not that easy to restore its former strength. The essence and blood of these monster beasts cannot match its trace of divine beast essence and blood, and it cannot restore its strength."
"I see. If it weren't for Brother Yeyu's flames that restrain the mist, we would all be killed by it," Yun Chan said.
"Where's that bead? It's a bead made of the essence and blood of a divine beast. It's worth a lot of high-grade Nether Pills!" Xue Shan said with a smile.
"Well, that bead was absorbed by me." I said with some embarrassment.
"Absorbing the essence and blood of mythical beasts? Is there such a technique?" Others looked at me in surprise and asked.
Seeing everyone so surprised, I couldn’t hide it anymore, so I said frankly: “It’s a long story, I bought this book of exercises at the Chengyang Chamber of Commerce. The elders of the Chamber of Commerce said that only the essence and blood of monsters can be absorbed. But during a battle in the Crocodile Swamp, I accidentally absorbed the essence and blood of a crocodile monster with the blood of a mythical beast. At that time, all my bones were broken. , I almost died on the spot. Fortunately, Li Yingxue froze me. I was dying at that time. I thought I would die, but I didn’t expect to survive by chance. Today I also had a chance and I was able to absorb the essence and blood of the mythical beast. But you may not feel it. I I almost died just now.”
"Brother Ye Yu, this is too dangerous. If you encounter something like this in the future, don't act recklessly!" Yun Chan said.
"Yes, Brother Ye Yu, it's lucky to have you this time, otherwise we might be like these monsters, with only skeletons left." Others followed suit.
I deliberately made things more dangerous so that others would not be able to continue to get to the bottom of it. Only Wen Yan knew that I was sure of absorbing the essence and blood of the mythical beast, because I had bought the essence and blood of the mythical beast with her in Wanjian City before. She kept looking at me silently when I finished speaking.
I suddenly realized that a layer of dragon scales had formed on my body. This should be the ability this dragon gave me. I quickly put away the dragon scales to avoid being discovered by others.
Everyone looked at the huge skeleton. Yun Chan said with a smile: "You said we took this dragon bone out to make a ghost weapon. What grade of ghost weapon should it be?"
"Although all the essence of the dragon bone has been lost, it is at least in the Ghost Emperor realm. I think it is at least an eighth-grade ghost weapon, or even a ninth-grade ghost weapon." Wen Yan said.
"Wow! That is a ghost weapon that can only be possessed by a strong person in the ghost king realm!" Everyone exclaimed.
"Brother Yeyu, please put it away! Then we can ask the Chengyang Chamber of Commerce to make ghost weapons for us." Yun Chan said.
"Okay, leave it here with me for now, and we'll deal with it after we get out." I said.
I put the huge dragon bone into the storage bag. As for the other monster bones, they had basically no value, so I just threw them away. We walked out of the cave and came to the ground. Unexpectedly, the entrance to the cave was actually at the root of a giant tree. We didn't find the entrance when we explored the island before. The location of the cave entrance is extremely hidden, even if you stand next to the cave entrance, it is difficult to find it.
When we got to the ground, I seemed to realize something was wrong. Wen Yan's hand was still holding mine tightly. Her face was flushed and she lowered her head silently. I quickly let go of my hand and said awkwardly: "Now that the mystery of the island's fog has been solved and the hidden dangers have been eliminated, we can hunt sea beasts with peace of mind."
Although I said this, the situation in my dream last night bothered me. Lin Xue was still in the hands of Fengshen Guards and was in danger of dying at any time. If I stayed here all the time, I might really miss out on helping Fengshen. When Wei is working on things, Lin Xue may really die because of me. I will never let the scene in the dream come true.
When hunting sea beasts this day, I had been absent-minded. I was almost hit by crab sea beasts several times. If it weren't for my strange and quick movements, I might have been injured. Wen Yan seemed to see something. After finishing the sea beast dinner in the evening, she came to me and said, "Brother Ye Yu, is there something on your mind?"
"Yeah, I was wondering when are we leaving here?" I said.
"Wouldn't it be better for everyone to stay here together?" Wen Yan asked.
"It's not bad, but it's great. It's carefree, far away from the disputes between humans and monsters, hunting sea beasts during the day and feasting on sea beasts at night. It's like a dream life here," I said.
"But Brother Yeyu is still unhappy." Wen Yan said.
