"Ancestor, I'm leaving for now. When I come back next time, I will...find a way to bring you some tribute!"
After saying goodbye to his ancestors, Xia Yi prepared to leave the temple.
However, the moment I stepped out of the temple gate, the space suddenly became chaotic. I was clearly on flat ground, but it felt like the world was turned upside down. I lost my sense of space and couldn't tell up from down, left from right.
The surrounding scene became blurred, as if the false shell was constantly peeling off, and the real world appeared before him.
Time was stretched out, and one second seemed as long as ten minutes.
It was unknown how much time had passed before Xia Yi shook her head and her vision gradually returned to normal. The chaotic sense of space also slowly faded away, as if everything was back on track.
A strange feeling welled up in her heart and she looked up.
In the blood-red sky, there was a dim sun. On the gray earth, there were countless dragon corpses piled up in the valley. Visible ashes were floating in the air, as well as curses.
The curse of the dragon clan was everywhere, and the anger, unwillingness, and resentment permeated every corner of the land.
Even Xia Yi, who has the bloodline of the Silver Dragon royal family, felt uncomfortable at this moment.
This is no longer a quiet sea of green trees.
Such a tragic world was exactly the same as the past images she had seen in the sea of trees before.
"Where am I?"
Xia Yi turned around.
The ancestral temple is still there, as if it had never been moved.
She turned around, stepped over the threshold, and returned to the ancestral temple. She waited for a long time, and when she came out again, the world in front of her still hadn't changed at all, and she didn't experience the same sense of confusion just now.
"What on earth happened?" Xia Yi said with a sad face, "Did I just make the ancestors angry? Is he punishing me? Woohoo!"
The little princess ran to apologize to the statue of her ancestor, but suddenly, as if she remembered something, she ran to the magic circle to confirm.
It has become different.
The first layer, the magic circle from the mythological era, has not changed.
And the second layer, the magic circle that was added later changed!
The changes in the dragon characters are related to space.
Although Xia Yi's magical ability made it impossible to determine the specific content of the changes, this was a clue that connected everything together.
"This is……"
Xia Yi stood there in a daze, feeling extremely terrified when she thought about it carefully.
"The sea of trees."
"Life restricted zone."
"The memory of the earth."
"Disaster."
"The temple of the ancestors."
"The blood of the royal family."
"Space magic circle."
"The real world."
She continued to recite what she was thinking and once again stepped on the land outside, only to feel that the fog covering the interior of the sea of trees became clearer and clearer.
It turned out that the area in front of Xia Yi at this moment was the real southern border.
In the past, a certain generation of Dragon Kings used the ancestral temple as the base point to set up a second layer of magic circle, thus creating a false surface that concealed the real space.
This is the Sea of Big Trees.
Therefore, the sea of trees is a forbidden zone for life. The meaning of its existence is to hide the truth under illusion and block all invaders who want to approach the real place.
Those dragons who rush in rashly will have no way back until death.
The only way to enter the real space is to pass through the base point of space magic - the ancestral temple.
Perhaps it was with this in mind that the royal pressure was set up as a test. Only dragons with royal blood can enter the real space.
The disaster in the earth’s memory happened right here!
Xia Yi gradually realized that the special secret realm was not the sea of trees, but this hidden land of disaster.
"But why did the Dragon King of that generation do such a thing in the distant past? It is not even recorded in history. What kind of terrible disaster happened here that was necessary to hide it to such an extent and turn it into a forbidden area..."
Xia Yi whispered to herself.
The next second, wind blew in the valley.
The wind carried an extremely terrifying aura that spread in all directions. Just by blowing past it, it turned all the dragon corpses in the valley into dust. Even the dragon's extremely sticky curse was blown away by the wind.
This is even superior to the higher species, absolutely powerful.
Xia Yi was stunned where she was. Out of biological instinct to seek profit and avoid harm, she took the initiative to choose to retreat, and even thought of running away.
This feeling reminded her of the endless fear she had experienced once before in the depths of the Golden Sea.
This is a remnant of the old world, a legendary beast.
141 Let’s Fight! (Update)
In the depths of the sea of Gold, there is an extremely terrifying life, the jealous beast - Leviathan.
They are legendary beasts created by the God of Creation in the old world in order to punish people. The meaning of their existence is only one, to destroy all life and bring endless disasters to the civilization of the old world.
However, after the destruction of the old world and the birth of the new world, these legendary beasts did not die. As the remnants of the old world, they still survive on this land.
It’s just that because the legendary beasts are the remnants of the old world and not the life of the new world, all the legendary beasts cannot maintain their activities for a long time and spend most of the time sleeping.
It seems that as long as they wake up, they will cause terrible disasters.
In Gold, someone forcibly awakened Leviathan from the depths of the Gold Sea, creating a black tide and killing countless Gold people in this disaster.
Even Sera, who possesses top strength among the dragon clan, is helpless in the face of the legendary beast.
Xia Yike had personally experienced the horror of the legendary beasts and knew how terrifying they were.
Therefore, she was able to immediately identify that this was the breath of the legendary beast!
Even the most powerful dragon species would feel fear in their hearts when faced with such a catastrophic life.
“Woo woo woo!”
Xia Yi ran back and hid in the ancestral temple.
She even hid behind the statue of her ancestors and used her strongest defensive moves.
Cover your head and crouch down to defend!
"Ancestor, please help me!"
I don’t know if the ancestral temple is really special, the breath of the legendary beast has not invaded here.
Xia Yi was safe here. She leaned against the big tail of the ancestor statue and breathed a sigh of relief.
"We're saved... What should we do now? There's a legendary beast out there..."
She began to have a dilemma.
First of all, with his own strength, there is no possibility of fighting against the legendary beast. Even Sera couldn't beat it, let alone himself.
"It's too difficult for me to face the legendary beast alone. How can I do it? It's not a question of courage or not. It's just that I can't defeat it!" Xia Yi felt aggrieved.
The most important thing is that Sera is not with Xia Yi now, so she has to deal with any dangerous situation alone.
"I won't go out, even if you kill me, I won't go out. Wherever my ancestors are is my safe house!"
Time keeps passing.
The ancestral temple has indeed always been safe. Nothing will happen if you stay here.
Until the evening, nothing had changed.
Xia Yi was so tired from all the journey that she could not hold on any longer. She curled up on the ground, hugged her big tail, closed her eyes, and fell asleep.
……
"Well……"
The next morning, Xia Yi felt stiff all over and woke up from the floor. Her fatigue was relieved to a certain extent, although she was not very comfortable.
"Sera?"
The dazed little princess sat up, rubbed her eyes and called for her personal maid.
"Sera, what time is it?"
There was no response from inside the temple.
As Xia Yi gradually woke up, she realized that Sera had disappeared and was no longer by her side. Now she was alone.
After thinking about this, her mood became even more depressed.
Gugu~
Xia Yi was hungry and her stomach started to growl. She hadn't eaten anything last night.
She took out her own rations and began to fill her stomach.
As the little princess ate, she fell into confusion.
"Am I going to hide here forever?"
In the real place outside the ancestral temple there are legendary beasts. It is extremely dangerous and cannot be compared with any adventure during the human swordmaster period.
This level of danger has exceeded the limits of Xia Yi's ability to handle.
Now I can’t contact other dragons and can only rely on myself to act. It’s really hopeless.
When facing Leviathan before, Xia Yi was really lucky. She used the Black Tide in reverse and issued a self-destruction order to it, which affected the Leviathan instead and created huge chaos. Only then was she able to escape. The current situation... is completely different!
But is it really useful to stay here forever?
