Jiang Donghua glanced at her sideways and said calmly.

"If senior sister would say less sarcastic words, I might be able to sense it more accurately."

Hong Ling chuckled, deliberately shook his foot, and kicked his shoulder.

"What? Are you angry because of what I said?"

Jiang Donghua was too lazy to pay attention to her, closed his eyes and concentrated, and continued to use Soul Force to explore the surroundings.

Hong Ling Seeing that he didn't answer, he held his chin in boredom, looked up at the sky covered by black mist, and suddenly sighed.

"Hey, are you saying that the so-called red light phenomenon is a scam? We have been deep in it for so long, and apart from the thickening black mist and more and more magical beasts, we haven't even seen a single hair."

Jiang Donghua opened his eyes, his gaze calm.

"If it is a scam, the Inner Academy elders will not go out collectively. Moreover, this trace is new, and the remaining Fire attribute energy is extremely pure. Some people came in earlier than us, and their strength is not weak."

He paused and touched a scorch mark on the tree trunk with his fingertips.

Hong Ling raised an eyebrow.

"Oh? Doesn't that mean that our trip may have been in vain? The good stuff has already been taken advantage of by others?"

Jiang Donghua shook his head.

"Not necessarily. If it is really taken away, the restlessness of the black mist and the monsters should subside, but now it is even more chaotic."

Just as he was speaking, he suddenly looked condensed and pressed Hong Ling's wrist fiercely.

"Sh--!"

Hong Ling was silent for a moment and looked along his line of sight.

Jiang Donghua and Hong Ling held their breaths and focused their gazes firmly on the front.

Not far away, I saw a giant earth-yellow dragon entrenched on the rock wall. Its scales were as rough as sand and stone, and each piece was filled with a thick Earth attribute aura. It lowered its head and glanced around with its golden vertical pupils coldly, as if searching for something.

The other jet-black dragon was hovering in the low altitude, covered with dark scales. There was faint lightning flashing between the gaps in the scales. Every breath produced a tiny arc of electricity, and the pressure was terrifying.

"Yellow Rock Flood Dragon and Mysterious Thunder Flood Dragon."

Hong Ling used his soul to transmit his voice, and there was a rare hint of solemnity in his voice.

Jiang Donghua nodded slightly, his eyes cold.

Either one of these two dragons is enough to put them on the road to escape, not to mention both appearing at the same time!

"They seem to be looking for something."

Jiang Donghua was keenly aware of the anomaly of the two dragons. They did not wreak havoc like ordinary monsters, but kept wandering around, as if searching for something.

Hong Ling narrowed his eyes and whispered.

"Maybe they are also looking for the source of the red light phenomenon, right?"

Jiang Donghua did not answer, but he had already acquiesced in this guess.

To make the two Peak Dou Huang dragons so cautious, the so-called red light phenomenon may be more important than they imagined!

At this moment, Yellow Rock Flood Dragon suddenly raised its head, let out a deep roar, then flicked its tail and hit the ground hard!

"Boom--!"

The earth trembled, gravel splashed, and a crack spread instantly, and underneath the crack, a ray of crimson light showed faintly!

Hong Ling's pupils shrank and he almost screamed.

"Found it?!"

However, before they could take a closer look, Mysterious Thunder Flood Dragon suddenly swooped down, opening its mouth with a black thunderbolt that hit the cracks!

"Not good!"

Jiang Donghua's face changed suddenly, he grabbed Hong Ling and retreated violently!

"Boom--!"

Thunder exploded, violent energy swept around, and the giant tree where they were hiding was instantly chopped into charcoal!

The two dragons didn't pay attention to them at all, but stared at the red light under the crack, with greed in their eyes!

"This is trouble."

Hong Ling gritted his teeth.

"These two beasts are actually fighting for Exotic Treasure?!"

Jiang Donghua's eyes flashed and he said in a deep voice.

"They have the same goal, but they are afraid of each other, so they haven't really taken action yet. But once they fight, we may not even have a chance to escape!"

Hong Ling clenched his fists, fighting spirit surging in his eyes.

"Then what should we do? We can't just watch them snatch away the treasure, right?"

Jiang Donghua was silent for a moment, then suddenly whispered.

"Wait."

"Wait?"

Hong Ling was stunned.

"Wait until they both get hurt or wait for the person who came in earlier than us to show up!"

Jiang Donghua's eyes are deep.

The two of them held their breath and concentrated, suppressing their breath to the extreme, and stared at the looming red light in the crack.

However, the fight between Yellow Rock Flood Dragon and Mysterious Thunder Flood Dragon caused flying sand and rocks all over the sky. The violent energy fluctuations made the vision blurred. Only the two behemoths could be vaguely seen biting and colliding madly. Every confrontation caused earthquakes like shaking the earth.

"Damn it, I can't see clearly at all!"

Hong Ling gritted his teeth and pinched his fingertips into his palm unconsciously.

Jiang Donghua frowned and was thinking about countermeasures. Suddenly, his eyes froze.

"That is?!"

On the ferocious head of Mysterious Thunder Flood Dragon, there is a corpse hanging impressively!

The man's clothes were torn, his face was pale, and his eyes were wide open, as if he had experienced great fear before he died.

"Chen Senlin?!"

Hong Ling's pupils shrank suddenly, his voice almost blurted out, and then he suppressed it forcefully.

Jiang Donghua's face was as gloomy as water.

Chen Senlin is the fourteenth strong man ranked by the Inner Academy. His strength has reached Dou Ling seven stars, but now he has become a corpse and is hung on Mysterious Thunder Flood Dragon's head like a trophy!

"No wonder we didn't see him all the way in."

Hong Ling's voice trembled slightly.

"He came in before us."

Jiang Donghua stared intently at Chen Senlin's body, and suddenly found that his right hand was clutching something, and he did not let go even after he died.

"He's got something in his hand!"

Jiang Donghua said in a low voice.

Hong Ling squinted and took a closer look. Sure enough, there was a faint red light between Chen Senlin's fingers, which was exactly the same as the red light under the crack!

"He got Exotic Treasure?!"

Hong Ling's breathing was stagnant.

Before he finished speaking, Yellow Rock Flood Dragon suddenly jumped up and slapped Mysterious Thunder Flood Dragon hard with his tail. The latter roared in pain and flicked his head. Chen Senlin's body was thrown away, and the red light also escaped, drawing an arc in the air!

"Opportunity!"

Jiang Donghua's eyes flashed with light, and his figure rushed out instantly!

Hong Ling reacted extremely quickly, rushing out almost at the same moment, and the two of them headed straight for the falling red light like ghosts!

However, at the moment they were about to touch it.

"Ho--!"

The two dragons noticed it at the same time, and their furious roars made people's eardrums hurt. Then, a wall of earth rose from the ground and blocked Jiang Donghua, while Mysterious Thunder Flood Dragon's black thunder struck directly on Hong Ling's head!

"Oops!"

The expressions on the two men's faces changed drastically, and they were forced to retreat quickly.

And that red light fell into the hands of the third person silently.

A figure appeared in the center of the battlefield at some unknown time, with its black robe flying and a mask covering its face, revealing only a pair of eyes as cold as poisonous snakes.

He looked down at the red light in his hand and chuckled.

"Thank you both for attracting their attention for me."
