"This is the Domineering Dragon, it's already dead, isn't it? Yet it still has such an imposing presence, truly unbelievable." Li Hongxiu, with a face full of surprise, ca into the cave with Su Heng. She was so shaken by the sight before her that she unconsciously took a step forward. The result was a sudden piercing pain, as if her skin was scorched by blazing fire, her spiritual power projection also beca sowhat illusionary, and it felt sowhat better only after she rejoined Su Heng's side.
"Before I learned martial arts, I heard others say that butchers, Executioners, and other people with a heavy aura of death prevent ordinary ghosts and spirits of the Yin God variety from coming close. The situation now should be for the sa reason." Su Heng thought for a mont and then replied.
Although that is what was said.
Now, Li Hongxiu is a bona fide Realm Master, yet she was injured just by getting close.
The power remaining in this cave is truly inconceivable.
He moved without haste, arriving at the depths of the cave, first looking up and staring at the huge white cocoon that filled his entire field of vision. Then he stepped back and looked up around him.
Two bright lights burst forth from his pupils, like searchlights, with thin dust floating under the bright white beams.
Around the cavern, there were many protruding rock spikes entwined with layers of cobweb-like white silk.
Further down, the rocks were dyed with life aura, turning into a state similar to crystal.
Crack!
Su Heng reached out and snapped one off.
It took a bit of effort, but he managed to break it off.
These rocks were very hard, forming a natural layer of armor.
The central cocoon was probably over a hundred ters tall, appearing very impressive in such an enclosed environnt.
After a mont of thought, Su Heng rged a portion of his spiritual power into it, and the thick white cocoon slowly beca transparent.
Li Hongxiu held her breath next to him, even though as a Spiritual Body she didn't actually breathe. Her fair and beautiful face tensed up, looking very serious. Under the influence of Su Heng's spiritual power, a shadow gradually materialized within the originally thick cocoon.
It was a bent, pitch-black S-shaped shadow of a Dragon Species.
The body was slender, now curled up tightly.
Although it was just an abstract silhouette, one could still make out the long dragon horns on the forehead, the soft tendrils on the chin, and the tight muscle lines on the body, all looking very handso.
"So beautiful, just like the art pieces collected by noble families of Central State," Li Hongxiu couldn't help but say.
"Roar!"
Just as she was imrsed in that astonishing beauty.
The dragon-shaped phantom suddenly lifted upwards, opened its mouth, followed by a roar exploding like thunder.
"Ah!!!" She completely did not sense any remaining Life Aura from within the cocoon, so this was entirely unexpected.
Li Hongxiu was terrified.
The roar caused an actual attack, her figure flickering as if skipping fras.
Seeing this scene, Su Heng couldn't help but shake his head slightly and reached out his index finger, touching the girl's upright spine.
A warm flow of spiritual power gradually spread within her body, and Li Hongxiu began to feel better.
Her originally ethereal form slowly stabilized.
"Why so jumpy, despite possessing such high cultivation, your combat experience is not on the sa level at all," Su Heng said with slightly furrowed brows.
Li Hongxiu lowered her head, not daring to retort.
Considering that Li Hongxiu's specialty indeed wasn't combat, he didn't say anything more on the matter.
Seeing that the atmosphere had relaxed, Li Hongxiu said, "I thought I heard the roar of the Domineering Dragon just now, and the shadow inside seed to move as well, could the Domineering Dragon still be alive after all these years? What was that all about just now?"
"Actually, no. It's like a bullfrog whose head has been chopped off but the body still moves; what happened just now was rely a reflex response," Su Heng shook his head.
"I see."
Li Hongxiu's face showed disappointnt.
But Su Heng changed the subject, "But to say it's completely dead, that would not be the case. The key to the Domineering Dragon's current state is that too much Essence Qi has dissipated from its body. If it can be replenished, the cocooning process might be able to restart, or even accelerate."
"That won't be easy," said Li Hongxiu. Although her combat ability was scorned, she was still outstanding in other aspects, and her understanding of so secretive knowledge was even above Su Heng's. For a creature like the Domineering Dragon, rely its existence itself is enough to change the environnt of a good part of the Outer Sea, generating countless Gu Insects. To replenish the Essence Qi it has lost, the difficulty of this task was not less than the mythological Nuwa nding the heavens.
Su Heng raised an eyebrow, "It would be difficult normally, but have you forgotten what we got from those two Descenders not long ago?"
Li Hongxiu's eyes lit up, "Master, are you saying that the Origin of the Descenders could be used to repair the Domineering Dragon?"
"Theoretically, it's feasible."
"But those two Origins are useful to you as well, don't you feel it's a pity to use them here?"
"They're not of much use to ; perhaps they might be more suitable for use here," Su Heng didn't feel it was a pity.
Li Hongxiu's eyes flickered, saying: "I t with an offspring of the Gu God earlier, and he told so information that might help you."
Li Hongxiu relayed so of Zhao Qingfeng's speculations to Su Heng, who showed an interested expression on his face.
"Where is he?"
"By now he should have been captured and imprisoned in a cell," she replied.
"I'll find so ti to see him later. The priority now is to bring the Domineering Dragon's cocoon back first," said Su Heng.
Su Heng started to take action.
He stepped forward, approaching the side of the white cocoon.
