Upon hearing the old man mention his limp, Xie Feng glanced at him.
There was a pool of blood beneath the old man. He shifted slightly, revealing his right leg, which had been covered by his sleeve. The leg was covered in blood and was still bleeding.
At this moment, Little Golden Egg quietly got off Xie Feng and hopped over to the old man's side.
As soon as it stood in the pool of blood, the blood quickly disappeared, completely absorbed by it.
The Little Golden Egg greedily devoured the blood.
It quickly absorbed all the blood on the ground.
A faint red tinge appeared on its eggshell, which then slowly faded after a while.
Xie Feng took out two pills, which the old man swallowed, and a faint energy emanated from them.
The pill went down his throat and instantly transformed into a warm current that flowed towards his injured right leg.
The old man's leg injury healed quickly.
The old man's expression softened slightly. He stood up, nodded to Xie Feng, and said, "Young man, thank you! Come, I'll take you to the front to find the person you want to see!"
With that, he walked forward.
Xie Feng made a casual gesture, and the Little Golden Egg seemed to see it, immediately flying into his sleeve and hiding itself well.
The old man asked, "Is this your pet?"
Xie Feng said, "Mm."
The old man said calmly, "Keep an eye on this little thing; it's jumping around like that, it could easily get into trouble."
Xie Feng chuckled softly, but didn't say anything.
The old man fell silent.
The two walked forward in silence, amidst endless withered grass and boundless yellow clouds, with only two figures moving forward silently.
They moved quickly, and after walking for a while, they gradually entered the deep mountains.
Finally, the old man stopped in front of a valley.
Before them lay an extremely narrow mountain path, only wide enough for one person to pass at a time.
The old man said, "Ahead lies the North Dragon King's territory, North Dragon Valley. Go ahead yourself; I won't follow."
Xie Feng nodded. "Thank you for your trouble, senior."
The old man nodded slightly, then turned and walked away without looking back.
Xie Feng suddenly remembered something and asked, "Senior, may I ask your honorable name and address? If we ever meet again, I'd like to pay you a visit."
Upon hearing this, the old man's face revealed an inscrutable and strange expression. He chuckled twice and pointed to the distant horizon.
The old man said, "I live in South Dragon Valley."
Xie Feng frowned. " South Dragon Valley?"
The old man laughed heartily, "Hahaha, I am the South Dragon King!"
Xie Feng: "?!!"
His lips twitched; good heavens, for a moment he didn't know what to say.
The North Dragon King are fighting, and the South Dragon King appears to have been temporarily defeated.
He asked the South Dragon King, but he was actually looking for the North Dragon King!
The key point is that, according to the old man, the North Dragon King was also going to execute the South Dragon King's assassins...
This is so surreal...
After a moment of silence, Xie Feng raised his eyes and said sincerely, "Actually, I don't necessarily need to find the North Dragon King. I can find you too!"
Since he doesn't know anyone, it doesn't matter who I contact.
The South Dragon King asked in return, "What do you want with me?"
Xie Feng winked and smiled, "Let's be friends!"
The South Dragon King laughed heartily, "Young man, are you also seeking out the North Dragon King to become his friend?"
"Almost."
"Seeing how sincere you are, alright, I'll come back in seven days. If you're still in North Dragon Valley, I'll be your friend!"
It's a deal!
"Of course, I never break my promise!"
The South Dragon King said generously.
Seeing it about to leave, Xie Feng suddenly asked, "You just said that the North Dragon King was executing your assassins. Now that your leg injury has healed, don't you want to go in and take a look?"
"Alas," the South Dragon King sighed, bowing his head, "Do you remember what I told you before, about the time I met a Cosmic Wanderer?"
"Remember."
"This person is currently staying in North Dragon Valley! Moreover, he is a distinguished guest invited by the North Dragon King. His cultivation is powerful and unpredictable, and our army has suffered repeated defeats. If I rashly enter, I am likely to meet with dire consequences! Although he is elusive and I have never fought him, I still feel a degree of apprehension towards him!"
When the South Dragon King spoke of this person from the North Dragon Valley, he couldn't help but sigh deeply.
It felt like I had met my lifelong rival.
Seeing his worried expression, Xie Feng asked, "Is this person you're talking about from Divine Dragon Plains?"
The South Dragon King shook his head. "This man is covered in dust and has an unfamiliar aura. I have never seen such a strange aura in my entire life!"
Xie Feng said, "My curiosity has been successfully piqued. I'm determined to go to North Dragon Valley and see Divine Saint this person really is!"
"Good luck, young man!"
South Dragon King finished speaking, his figure blurred and instantly disappeared into the vast expanse of yellow grass.
Xie Feng followed the narrow path and entered North Dragon Valley.
My first impression upon entering was...
The vast horizon...
White fog descends upon the sky!
It permeates every crevice between heaven and earth, its chilling aura biting.
Xie Feng carefully sensed it and realized that this white mist was not ordinary fog, but a defensive Formation!
He immediately concealed his presence and set up a small protective array. This Formation was just a faint, indistinct stream of light, and it was difficult to detect without careful observation.
The Formation allows him to blend into the surrounding atmosphere, making him difficult for outsiders to detect.
This valley is vast, filled with countless dark cities, each hundreds of feet high, majestic and solemn, with dragon sculptures visible everywhere.
In a remote and desolate place in the western part of the valley, there is a huge two-tiered circular altar.
The altar has four directions: east, south, west, and north, each with white stone steps. On both sides of the steps are stone pillars with coiled dragons, totaling eight pillars that soar into the sky.
A primitive Savage Wilderness aura spread out.
In the center of the altar stood a towering bronze cauldron, beneath which roared a great fire, and inside the cauldron boiled eerie blue water.
Xie Feng sensed that the water was highly poisonous!
The most striking feature is a stone pillar standing next to the bronze cauldron, with a large net made of ropes dangling from the top of the pillar.
Ten black-scaled dragons were trapped in the net!
The black dragon was struggling frantically.
A faint flame spread across the large net; as the flames licked it, the scales of the black snakes fell into the cauldron with a clatter, instantly melting away.
A group of people stood not far from the bronze cauldron.
Aside from those dressed as soldiers, there were some elders in black robes.
There were two people at the front. The middle-aged man had a lot of white hair mixed in with his black hair, but he was in good spirits, stood up straight, and had bright, piercing eyes. He was very dignified.
Beside him stood a girl in white, who looked to be fourteen or fifteen years old. She had a clear, bright face and gentle eyes, and stood timidly, like a rabbit that was easily startled.
The middle-aged man was the North Dragon King. He stared at the bronze cauldron and gestured to the elder beside him. "These fellows, under the orders of the South Dragon King, attempted to assassinate me. Their crime is unforgivable. Boil them!"
As soon as he finished speaking, an elder in black robes walked to the stone pillar. He reached out and activated some mechanism. With a whoosh, the net opened, and the black dragons all fell into the bronze cauldron!
roar!
roar!
The black dragons felt extreme pain and immediately began to struggle wildly.
They attempted to escape the bronze cauldron, but overestimated their abilities.
The bronze cauldron was too large and too deep, especially for the black dragons that had sunk to the bottom, who had no hope of escaping.
