Early the next morning, sunlight filtered in through the gaps in the curtains.
Gu Yuena opened his eyes and found that he was still leaning in Long Yuan's arms.
He maintained the same posture as last night, like an old monk in trance, and seemed not to move all night.
"Are you awake?" Long Yuan's voice came from above.
Gu Yuena sat up straight and rubbed his eyes. "You didn't sleep all night?"
"Hmm."
"Aren't you really sleepy?"
"It's okay."
Gu Yuena glanced at him, said nothing, got up and went to wash up.
Long Yuan moved his somewhat stiff shoulders and walked to the window.
The morning at Shrek City was very quiet, with only sporadic pedestrians on the street. Golden Ancient Tree in the distance glowed golden in the morning light, and the whole city seemed to be shrouded in a layer of mist.
Gu Yuena came out after washing, her hair was still a little wet.
"When will Yao Ling arrive?"
"It should be soon." Gu Yuena picked up Soul Guidance Communicator and took a look, but there was no new message.
"Let's go eat first." Long Yuan said.
The two went downstairs and had breakfast at Spirit Pagoda's restaurant.
Leng Yaozhu hasn't appeared yet, he is probably still sleeping or dealing with his own affairs.
After eating, Long Yuan and Gu Yuena returned to the room and waited.
Near noon, Soul Guidance Communicator of Gu Yuena rang.
She took a look and answered.
"Arrived."
The voice of Yao Ling came from the opposite side. "Sir, I'm downstairs."
Gu Yuena stood up and looked at Long Yuan.
"Let's go."
The two took the elevator down to the first floor and walked out of the Spirit Pagoda door.
The sun is shining brightly, and people are coming and going on the streets of Shrek City.
A young man stood at the foot of the doorstep.
He looked to be in his early twenties and handsome, but he exuded an evil aura that made people afraid to approach him.
Wearing black clothes, he stood there quietly, like a sculpture. People passing by subconsciously avoided him and did not dare to look at him more.
Seeing Gu Yuena coming out, he lowered his head slightly.
"My lord."
Gu Yuena nodded and looked sideways at Long Yuan.
"This is Long Yuan, your lord."
Yao Ling's eyes fell on Long Yuan and he looked at it for a moment.
Long Yuan is also looking at him.
The two looked at each other for a moment, then Yao Ling bowed slightly.
"My lord."
Long Yuan nodded and said nothing.
Yao Ling looked at Gu Yuena: "Lord, you asked me to come, what can I do?"
Gu Yuena said calmly, "Take us to Star Dou Forest."
Yao Ling was stunned for a moment, looked at Long Yuan, then looked at Gu Yuena, and seemed to understand something.
"Yes."
The three of them walked all the way outside the city near Star Dou Forest and found a secluded place.
Yao Ling raised his hand, and a ball of black light condensed in his palm, turning into a rotating Vortex.
"Let's go, through this space channel, you can go directly to the outside of Star Dou Forest."
Star Dou Forest, or it should be called Spirit Pagoda Star Dou Fortress now.
A great steel wall surrounded the entire Star Dou Forest.
Star Dou Fortress has a history of more than three thousand years since its establishment. Since the Ferocious Beasts of Star Dou Forest Core Circle were defeated in a war with humans three thousand years ago, Spirit Pagoda took advantage of the situation to build this fortress.
Being able to trap all the Ferocious Beasts here, in addition to the factors of rat-throwing weapons, the defense here is not weak at all.
In addition to a group of top-level Spirit Pagoda Soul Master guarded by one Spirit Envoy, there are also a large number of advanced Soul Tool and a huge number of Fixed Soul Cannon Shell.
The main body of the fortress even has a linked soul guidance array. This soul guidance system that has existed for thousands of years can link a large number of Soul Tool to burst out powerful power.
Once activated, even Limit Douluo cannot break through its defenses in a short period of time.
Of course, Star Dou Forest is still too big, and those precious space shielding Soul Tool cannot completely cover it. It can only be detected by the detection Soul Tool regularly, so for some Ferocious Beast who are proficient in the power of space, there is an opportunity to get in and out.
Just like they are now.
Gu Yuena was the first to walk into Vortex.
Long Yuan followed her into the darkness.
In a flash of light, the three figures disappeared from the spot.
The black Vortex dispersed, and Long Yuan found himself standing on the edge of a dense forest.
The air is filled with the smell of moist earth, the towering ancient trees block out the sky, and the sun casts mottled light and shadow from the gaps between the leaves.
Low roars of beasts could be heard in the distance, and occasionally unknown birds flew overhead. Every tree here was surprisingly thick, and the tree crowns were connected together, like a huge green canopy.
Star Dou Forest.
Gu Yuena stood beside him, looking at the familiar scene in front of him, and was silent for a moment.
Yao Ling was half a step behind and followed quietly without making a sound.
"My lord, should we go directly to the core area?" Yao Ling asked.
Gu Yuena nodded.
Yao Ling raised his hand, and the black light condensed again. This time, Vortex was much smaller than before, and it was obviously a short-distance transmission.
The three of them stepped into it, the light flashed, and the scene in front of them changed again.
Lake of Life.
The green lake water is like a huge emerald, inlaid in the depths of the forest. The lake water is crystal clear, and you can faintly see the silver light flowing at the bottom of the lake. The lake surface is calm and waveless, reflecting the blue sky and white clouds. It is surrounded by lush ancient trees. Countless rare spiritual herbs and elixirs grow beside the lake, exuding a faint fragrance.
Long Yuan looked around and his eyes fell on the figures by the lake.
Standing at the front was a middle-aged man in black, with a stern face and deep eyes, exuding a vague aura of darkness. His eyes were golden, glowing with a cold light in the sunlight.
It was the former supreme ruler of Star Dou Forest, Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King Di Tian.
Behind him, stood a woman wearing a green dress, with a gentle appearance and a gentle temperament. Her eyes fell on Gu Yuena with unconcealable excitement.
Emerald Swan, Bi Ji, the fourth ranked Ferocious Beast, has a cultivation level of 590,000 years.
Next to Bi Ji was a burly man with extremely thick and long arms. His eyes were shining with dark golden light, looking at Long Yuan unkindly.
Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, Xiong Jun, ranked sixth, with 480,000 years of cultivation.
There are also King of Ten Thousand Monsters and Zi JI, who have all set their sights on them.
Di Tian lowered his head slightly and saluted respectfully.
"My lord."
The other Ferocious Beast all bowed and saluted.
"My lord."
Gu Yuena nodded expressionlessly.
"Get up."
She turned sideways and looked at Long Yuan.
"This is Long Yuan, also your master."
Di Tian's eyes fell on Long Yuan and he looked at it for a moment.
He could feel that there was an aura about this young man that made him vaguely afraid. It was not Soul Power, not Blood Qi, but something deeper - blood.
Long Yuan's identity, Gu Yuena once told him, at this moment, Di Tian immediately understood his identity.
But compared to Silver Dragon King, this Golden Dragon King is undoubtedly stranger to them.
