640 Waiting and Observing
Xue Wei and the others were not in a hurry to attack, and upon observing the Sea Dragon for so ti, they also realized that it had no intention of leaving the waters and rely glanced at them all without hiding the hostility within its gaze.
“Do you think that it has been placed here intentionally?” Ling Xiao looked around and frowned as he asked.
“On the map, it is clear that this strait is the only way to enter the Dongfang Continent unless we are willing to spend a few years to bypass No Man’s Land.
“If others sohow manage to get here, they would still have to cross the strait itself, and the Hailong will block their advance. It is quite clear that whover has built this area will not allow anyone to enter the Dongfang Continent by these ans.”
Xue Wei and the other two could easily guess who Ling Xiao was referring to. Although they had never t the enemy behind the scenes, they could all guess that No Man’s Land had more than just one purpose, but they also realized that he was very cautious and not willing to take any risks.
It would stand to reason that Xue Wei and his comrades should not have been able to reach this strait at all. If they had not dropped into the tunnel below ground, they would definitely have faced grueling challenges and dangers one after another, but now they had reached the end, even though it had seed impossible before.
“He is very ticulous. Although the chances of us reaching this strait were very small, we still arrived. Considering his extre cautiousness throughout the years, it is clear that although it is rely a small chance of our successful arrival here is not sothing that would be overlooked.”
Xue Wei was feeling complicated as he had to praise the enemy that seed to have trapped them deep within a spiderweb. He could not fully understand why anyone would be willing to spend such an overwhelming amount of ti and effort to plan against him, as his actual force value was still too low to pose any real danger to an expert of the strength needed to set up this giant trap.
It was not that Xue Wei looked down upon himself, but he understood that one had to be realistic. Since the enemy had managed to avoid even the powerful Lan, then it was no wonder that he couldn’t defeat him for now, but even if the future looked bleak, he had no intention of backing down. Who knew, one day they might get a lucky chance to turn the whole thing around.

“Well, whether the Sea Dragon has been placed here to block us or if it is unintentional, it won’t make much difference for us. The current strength of this Sea Dragon has just broken into the realms of immortals. When I get close to it, I can sense a divine energy, but the energy is still very chaotic, and it would appear to beco disrupted from ti to ti.”
Bai Tianyu was trying to sense the current situation in front of them, and although his core had been corrupted previously, he still managed to sense the energy surrounding this Sea Dragon right away.
“Since it has already beco a deity, we won’t have much chance to fight against it during the tis where the energy is available. No matter whether it is newly promoted or it has been a deity for years, it is a level of strength that we are simply unable to withstand.” Hei Gou had listened to Bai Tianyu’s words, and he had a few ideas.
“You said that the energy is chaotic, and that it will beco disrupted from ti to ti. I would suggest that we camp here for a day or two and keep observing this Hailong. If possible, we should make use of the ti when it is in a state of energy disruption and rush over the strait.
“The strait is not short, but if we hurry on board one of those ships you ntioned from earlier, then we might be able to use the mont of weakness to get enough of a headstart to escape the dragon’s reach.”
Although Hei Gou was trying to stay calm and reasonable, he also understood that this specific gamble was, indeed, possible, but it could also beco extrely dangerous. If their ship was not swift enough, they would likely be caught by the dragon, and after that, they would definitely suffer a fate worse than death.
“I agree. For now, let us take so ti to try and observe this dragon. Although it has many similarities with the dragons on our continent, there are still quite a number of differences. Maybe we can learn sothing from observing them.” Ling Xiao could not help but comnt curiously. Although he no longer wished to work as a diviner, he had still been growing up in a temple that focused on teaching information about beasts.
“Cough, cough.” Xue Wei had taken a mouthful of water to moisten his throat, but he had never expected to hear those words co from Ling Xiao. Even more surprised was he when he witnessed the eyes that were filled with excitent and wonder, and he began pondering if he even knew Ling Xiao enough. To be this excited about such a small thing, it ant that he had to give him more pocket money.
However, he had to admit that Ling Xiao truly had so guts. To even consider examining the Sea Dragon and trying to understand it better was beyond his expectations.
“I think we should consider it later when we get strong enough. When we are so strong that nothing here can threaten us, then we should return. If nothing else, then we can have a Sea Dragon Mount by then.”
