In order to capture Long Yi, the Black Dragon Empire spared no efforts, with all the pursuing troops’ trajectories increasingly aligning with Long Yi’s path!
At this mont, Long Yi was extrely anxious, having just had three waves of scouting Dragon Knights pass over his head in succession. Those bastards, don’t these Dragon Knights cost sothing? Don’t they know tiredness? Can’t they let one have a rest?
Long Yi muttered, but at the sa ti, sothing even more worrying was unfolding.
Little Zi.
Having absorbed the powers of twelve Female Demons, Little Zi had reached a critical point of evolution once again. Long Yi originally thought he could rest for a while but ever unexpected, those thirteen spirits beca a big problem. These thirteen spirits, having lost their consciousness, were left only with the instincts of Female Demons, and their instinctual desire was to evolve. This forced Little Zi to expend all her ntal energy to appease them, and at this critical mont of evolution, she was unable to consu them.
Little Zi’s current state was barely holding on, and with ti her condition would only get worse. In this regard, Long Yi was sowhat bewildered, having skimd through his entire knowledge bank. There’s not that he didn’t have corresponding knowledge, but it seed that their current problem was simply lack of material.
Now, Long Yi simply hoped for no more trouble to turn up, to smoothly return to White Dragon, and then extract Crystal Cores from Dean Ma Deburg by various ans. Curing Little Zi was the right path.
But wishes were always too good to be true.
Having wasted too much ti avoiding the scouting Dragon Knights in the sky, the bulk of the forces from behind managed to catch up.
Damn it, do these bastards have dog noses? With so many routes, how did they happen to insist on my trail?
Sothing’s not right! There must be so reason for them to have found !
Long Yi started to examine every part of his body once again.
Long Yi has a very good habit, he would always check his whole body carefully for things like eavesdropping devices, but evidently, the answer was still negative.
Normal! Normal!
Just what the hell is going on?
The food couldn’t possibly be tracking him, scent? Even more impossible.
So, since being in Black Dragon, what else has been abnormal?
After careful consideration by Long Yi, the only thing left to consider was the multiple tortures by the Eye of Pain.
Could it be this?
Long Yi’s heart thumped suddenly.
"Little Zi, do you have any leftover ntal energy? Check the state of my ntal force please."
At this mont, Little Zi was extrely fatigued from being tornted by the thirteen spirits. However, she knew that unless the situation was extrely critical, Long Yi absolutely wouldn’t call for her. She consolidated her energy and scanned Long Yi’s mind.
"There...is a ntal wave lingering within your ntal force, constantly radiating outwards... It’s very concealed, even I didn’t discover it..." Little Zi spoke with disappointnt. This was considered a major mistake to her. Little Zi, who always upheld a principle of foolproof security, could hardly believe that she had made such an error.
"It’s alright, as long as we know what’s happening."
Guided by Little Zi, Long Yi quickly annihilated the ntal wave.
anwhile, far behind them, Tilians’ Eye of Pain suddenly started to gaze around aimlessly.
"He’s found it!"
Tilian understood that the Eye of Pain had lost its target.
"Hmm, in that case, you’re of no use to anymore."
Tilian sneered coldly, looking at the gigantic eyeball, from which an invisible figure appeared. It actually looked like the elderly Reiz!
"Reiz, oh Reiz, preserving part of your soul here is actually quite clever, it’s just a pity. Now that you’re of no use to , there’s no need for to keep you."
Hearing what Tilian said, Reiz begged for rcy with all his might. But Tilian opened his chest, from where a strong force was generated by his heart, tearing Reiz apart, and drawing him in.
Having done all this, a hint of redness appeared on Tilian’s pale face, he raised his head high and his body trembled a few tis.
"Ah – the taste of knowledge."
Tilian savored the taste of it and licked his lips, then, with a sobered look in his eyes, he shouted, "Long Yi is sowhere close by! Deploy the carpet-style dragon breath attack! Don’t leave a single stone unturned!"
All the Black Dragons roared in unison, forming a straight line from the sky, the dragon breath sweeping out.
"Damn it! This bastard is indeed extre!"
Even though Long Yi was quite far away at this mont, he could still faintly feel the threat of the dragon breath coming from behind.
The biggest issue with walking is that the speed will always be slower than flying, if the other party had no tracking thod. Even if they had a thousand wings, it wouldn’t work. But the mont they could track you, your walking would inevitably end tragically.
What Long Yi could confirm now was that the other party didn’t know his precise location, otherwise, they wouldn’t resort to the carpet-style dragon breath to corrode the area. Their purpose was to force him out and Long Yi definitely couldn’t run around at random now.
Once he escaped, the patrolling Dragon Knights around will imdiately set sights on him. By then, it would be truly difficult to escape.
Can’t stay on the ground, can’t take to the sky.
The only workable thod left was underground!
Long Yi dared not deploy his Fighting Aura, he could only rely on his brute strength to rapidly dig his way through with a shovel transford from his Greatsword. His brute strength was imnse, and he soon dug out a huge cave. After compressing a massive amount of air using magic, Long Yi quickly made the cave entrance collapse and then continued to dig further in. While digging, he buried all the earth and rocks behind him. As a result, Long Yi’s luck was not bad, he actually dug into an underground river! And the space was not small at all!
Lucky indeed!
Seeing that the underground river pooling into a small lake, it was evident that beneath the lake it connected to another underground river.
"Underground river, oh underground river, are there any water spirits here?" Long Yi asked.
There was no response. It seed there were none.
What to do now?
Long Yi sat by the river, dejected.
The depth here from the surface was still quite deep. He couldn’t hear the noise from outside here, but there were still so subtle vibrations. It seed that those outside were indeed furious.
Suddenly, Long Yi noticed a slight tremor in the soil from the tunnel he had co from!
Damn it! They’ve found !
At this mont, outside, Tilian looked at the cave in front of him that clearly showed signs of man-made digging.
"Dig him out! I’d love to see where this Long Yi can escape to!"
Damn!
Irritated, Long Yi picked up a stone and hurled it into the dark river. The cold river water splashed around, and a droplet landed in Long Yi’s eye, causing a sharp stinging sensation.
Corrosive?
No! It’s salt!
Long Yi dipped his finger in the water for a taste, sure enough, the water had a strong salty taste. Looking closely at the riverbank, there were indeed fine grains of salt. Under the effect of his dark vision, everything was in grayscale, and Long Yi hadn’t realized that it was actually salt.
An underground saltwater river?
Geography knowledge! Now is the ti I need you!
Within the territory of the Black Dragon Empire, there are three underground saltwater streams ntioned in the Geography knowledge. Within this direction, there are two. One of them, following the flow, is generally in the sa direction Long Yi was heading!
Should I try my luck?
In this situation, trying my luck is the only choice!
Long Yi took the trident of the Sea Emperor from his private space. This trident could allow a person to move freely in seawater for more than three hours. This saltwater should be barely considered as seawater!
Long Yi tightly gripped the trident and directly jumped into the small lake. As expected, an air layer ford around his body, allowing Long Yi to breathe freely!
Great!
Adding the underwater breathing magic that could allow him to stay in the water for an hour to the mix, Long Yi had four hours to rely on his luck!
When Tilian’s team rushed in, Long Yi was long gone. The only thing left in the area is the salty river still bubbling and flowing.
A few dragon knights cast a fighting aura skill into the small lake, other than splashes, there were no other effects.
Tilian’s eyes flickered. Could it be that Long Yi wasn’t there? Was that just a cave dug by another creature?
"Let’s move!"
Tilian led his team to leave.
Later, the team launched a large-scale search in the surrounding area. The entire mountain was turned into a black, stinking smoky wasteland by the black dragon. But still no trace of Long Yi was found.
Tilian couldn’t imagine how Long Yi had disappeared. The Eye of Pain showed that Long Yi was on this mountain, and not far away. He had no routes left to escape!
But why?
No!
Sothing’s off!
It was that river!
That damn Long Yi! Could he have left through the underground river?
Even though it seed impossible and went beyond common senses, it was the only possibility!
It’s either we find him alive or a corpse!
The underground saltwater river!
An image of the Black Dragon Empire’s underground water structure flashed through his mind. Long Yi could only exit from one location!
At noon, in a desolate remote village.
Struggling, Long Yi, in a purplish hue, crawled out from an abandoned well. The scorching sun beat down on his body, coating his clothes and skin with a layer of white salt.
"Damn, I almost died."
Long Yi said breathlessly.
Four hours! A full four hours! The first three hours under the protection of the trident weren’t too bad, but after Long Yi cast the underwater breathing spell, he realized that his decision was incredibly stupid.
The so-called underwater breathing could make you breathe the oxygen in the water, but the oxygen content in that damn underground water was incredibly low!
Long Yi could hardly believe how he endured it! He even passed out four tis! If not for Little Zi desperately casting spells to revive him, Long Yi would have probably missed this exit!
But, I did it!
Long Yi rolled over, finally regaining so vision. He slowly got up, looked ahead, and couldn’t help but smile bitterly.
"You bastards, how did you manage to catch up that fast?"
In front of Long Yi stood Tilian! Looking around, it was filled with dragon riders from the Black Dragon Empire. Their eyes were all red, not only because Long Yi had recently blown up the Black Dragon Empire’s facility in a gratifying manner, but also because these dragon riders had to search frantically for Long Yi and had been without rest for two days. They even had to eat, drink and relieve themselves while riding on the dragons! Their butts were breaking!
At this ti, these people couldn’t wait to tear Long Yi apart, but without Tilian’s order, no one dared to move rashly.
It seems this escape attempt was a failure, wasn’t it?
Tilian slowly approached Long Yi.
"There are three hundred dragon riders here. Although most of them don’t have strength beyond yours. But for you, a riderless guy, it should be more than enough. Of course, if it’s not enough, on the way here, there are a thousand dragon riders. If you have the confidence to deal with these three hundred dragon riders within an hour, you can continue to struggle."
Long Yi looked around and shook his head. Little Zi’s condition was not optimistic, after casting ntal magic spells consecutively in the tunnel, her condition had worsened. If she couldn’t evolve further, the consequences would be unimaginable!
Long Yi’s mind was spinning rapidly; he had to co up with a suitable way to make the Black Dragon Empire believe they could control the unprecedentedly powerful Little Zi. He needed to make the Black Dragon Empire hand out these fourteen level nine crystal cores!
Long Yi looked up, his face, which had just regained its color, showed a sincere smile of a good-natured person.
"Listen bro, let’s talk."
Tilian also smirked, "Go ahead."
"Actually, I..." When Long Yi got to this point, he paused for a mont, his smile beca even brighter. "Actually, I still want to resist a bit!"
Roar!
A colossal shadow darkened the sky, and then molten iron rained down from above!
