Chapter 687: Sleeping God
"Is there an ancient god here?"
Jiang Chen whispered.
Thinking of this, he bent down, carried the woman to the shore and sat down.
This action caused dissatisfaction among the women, but they were powerless to refute it.
She opened her hazy eyes, looked at Jiang Chen's face, her heart beating violently, and closed her eyes shyly.
"Hey." Jiang Chen called softly, "Wake up."
"Huh?" The woman wondered, then she realized she was not in the lake, which made her even more surprised.
She turned her head to look at Jiang Chen and found herself in Jiang Chen's arms, feeling very embarrassed.
"What are you doing?" She pushed Jiang Chen away hastily.
"Don't get me wrong, I just happened to save you." Jiang Chen said awkwardly.
The woman's pretty face flushed, and she thought to herself, of course I know you saved me, but the key is that I'm not used to being hugged by a strange man, especially when he's a strange boy.
However, she quickly calmed down, looked around and said, "You are here to look for treasure, right?"
Hearing this, Jiang Chen was stunned.
Seeing his dazed look, the woman thought to herself, it seems this man is really a fool.
"good."
Jiang Chen did not hide it and admitted it directly.
"Then come with me, we must take the treasure as soon as possible." said the woman.
"Why?"
"Because there is a cub of the Mysterious Crocodile under the lake. If it finds us, we will surely die."
The woman said, "So, it's best to kill it while it's sleeping, otherwise it will cause trouble."
When Jiang Chen heard this, his expression changed.
Xuanming crocodile cub!
"You want to kill the Xuanming crocodile cub?"
Jiang Chen was silent for a while before he uttered a word.
"yes."
The woman said, "If we don't do this, we won't be able to take the treasure."
"Then let's do it quickly." Jiang Chen said.
As he said this, he followed the woman.
Deep in the lake, Jiang Chen followed the woman and walked downstream. Passing through layers of trees, his vision became clearer and clearer.
Under the lake, there is a passage that leads directly to the bottom of the lake.
The passage is spacious and bright, with a few dim lanterns illuminating the surroundings.
There are many caves on both sides of the passage. The top of each cave is inlaid with a crystal stone, which flickers with faint fluorescence.
"Are these crystal stones night-shining pearls?"
Jiang Chen's eyes fell on the crystal on the wall and he muttered to himself.
"This is not a night-shining pearl."
The woman shook her head. "This is a spiritual stone, extracted using a special method."
There are three types of spirit stones: ordinary spirit stones, heavenly-grade spirit stones, and god-grade spirit stones.
Every spiritual stone is priceless.
However, there is a spirit stone vein here, so you can imagine how valuable the spirit stones are.
The woman led Jiang Chen forward and soon arrived in front of a huge iron door. The door was tightly locked, revealing a cold atmosphere.
"Wait for me here for a while."
After the woman finished speaking, she walked up to the iron gate and pressed the groove on it.
Snap!
The iron gate slowly opened, and what came into view was a magnificent palace.
Inside the palace, there are all kinds of precious items, all of which are rare treasures. If any one of them were to spread outside , it would cause a bloody storm.
"It seems that this woman has an extraordinary family background." Jiang Chen said.
Suddenly, he sensed a cold breath and immediately turned his head, just in time to meet a pair of scarlet eyes.
A snow-white snake tail wrapped around the iron gate and slowly poked out .
The snake's tail is covered with blue-black lines, like poisonous stingers.
"Mysterious Crocodile."
Seeing this, the woman's face changed and she shouted, "Run!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she rushed out first, followed closely by Jiang Chen.
"Hiss~"
The Xuanming crocodile let out a sharp cry, the sound waves spread out, the space vibrated, and it made people's eardrums hurt.
Jiang Chen covered his ears but did not slow down.
His body was strong, and mere sound waves posed no .
The woman’s cultivation level was not high, but she was extremely fast and disappeared into the distance in the blink of an eye.
Jiang Chen frowned and chased after him.
He was faster than the woman, and in just a moment, he closed the distance between them.
"Aren't you afraid of death?" The woman was terrified. She didn't expect Jiang Chen to be so fast.
"I came here for the Xuanming crocodile cub. You just need to run for your life."
Jiang Chen said calmly.
The woman gritted her teeth. She knew Jiang Chen was after the Xuanming crocodile cub, but she was unwilling to give up this opportunity.
"You are here for the Xuanming Crocodile's cub, so do you know the Xuanming Crocodile's weakness?"
The woman suddenly asked.
"Weakness?" Jiang Chen was surprised.
"That's right, the Xuanming Crocodile likes to devour souls. As long as you kill me, it will wake up."
The woman said: "In this case, you can also take the Xuanming Crocodile's cub."
Jiang Chen suddenly realized that the woman had deliberately revealed the Xuanming Crocodile's weakness.
He looked at the woman carefully and asked abruptly, "Why do you know these things?"
"These are what my master told me," said the woman.
"Who is your master?"
"My master's name is Chen Yu." said the woman.
"Chen Yu." Jiang Chen repeated, and a beautiful woman's face appeared in his mind.
"Where is your master?" he asked.
"My master is dead." said the woman.
Jiang Chen was stunned. He didn't expect the woman to say that.
Immediately, he shook his head. The woman's words were not convincing enough.
But Jiang Chen did not dwell on this issue. Since Chen Yu was dead, the Xuanming crocodile cub belonged to him.
roar!
At this moment, a roar came from the bottom of the lake, and the entire ground shook violently, as if a ferocious beast was about to break out of the ground.
"Oops!"
The woman's pretty face changed drastically. She didn't bother to talk to Jiang Chen anymore and quickly fled upstream.
"roar!"
A terrifying aura surged from the lake, and a huge monster broke out of the water, causing a violent wave.
“Damn it.”
Jiang Chen looked at the Xuanming crocodile rushing towards him with an extremely ugly expression.
He could never have imagined that the Xuanming crocodile cub was hiding under the lake.
"Xiaolong, take action."
He shouted to the fire dragon on his shoulder, saying that this fire dragon was very powerful and should be able to kill the Xuanming crocodile cub.
"roar!"
The fire dragon roared excitedly and leaped out with its huge body.
Jiang Chen hid on the fire dragon's back to avoid getting hurt.
Oooooh!
The fire dragon attacked the Xuanming crocodile head-on, its mouth suddenly opened and spewed out scorching flames.
The Xuanming crocodile roared, swung its tail to disperse the flames, and at the same time bit the fire dragon.
The fire dragon figure quickly disappeared from the spot.
Jiang Chen looked at this scene with a solemn expression. He did not expect the Xuanming Crocodile to be so fast that even the Fire Dragon could not catch up.
"As expected of the Xuanming Crocodile."
Seeing that the fire dragon was fighting desperately, Jiang Chen did not dare to delay. He activated the sword-controlling technique and turned into a sword beam and flew out.
Phew!
The sword-wielding technique cut through the void and accurately hit the neck of the Xuanming crocodile.
Suddenly, blood splattered, the Xuanming crocodile felt pain, howled to the sky, and twisted its huge body, rolling up mud and sand.
Jiang Chen seized this opportunity and controlled the fire dragon to attack the Xuanming crocodile, dealing a fatal blow.
Bang, bang, bang…
