Chapter 1771 - 1768: Mysterious Forest
In the vast sea, there is an island.
A golden sea belt surrounds the island, making it look from afar like a giant golden dragon embracing the island.
At this moment, two silhouettes swept across the sky.
The owners of these silhouettes were, naturally, Li Chen and the Dragon Girl, Cailian.
The Dragon Girl pointed at the majestic and magnificent island ahead and said, "This is Golden Dragon Island, the place where generations of the Golden Dragon Tribe have lived!"
Perhaps due to some special sense, Little Dragon felt very familiar with this island, letting out an excited dragon roar.
Soon after, it directly emerged from the Beast Pet Space, excitedly rushing forward like a traveler returning home.
"Little Dragon, it’s dangerous, come back quickly!"
Seeing Little Dragon rush forward, the Dragon Girl hurriedly warned.
However, because Little Dragon was so excited, it didn’t hear her warning at all.
As soon as it entered Golden Dragon Island, a golden mist enveloped it.
And then, it vanished without a trace.
Witnessing this scene, Li Chen’s heart was shocked, he quickly asked, "What is going on, where did Little Dragon go?"
The Dragon Girl pointed to the thick golden mist in front and said, "This is the Mysterious Forest, our Dragon Clan’s Forbidden Barrier. Once any outsiders intrude, the Forbidden Barrier will automatically activate!"
"However, you don’t need to worry too much. Little Dragon has the bloodline of the Golden Dragon Clan in its body. The Mysterious Forest can automatically recognize this and will only trap it in a certain area without causing any real harm!"
Upon hearing the Dragon Girl’s words, Li Chen’s tense heart finally eased.
He immediately wanted to venture inside.
But the Dragon Girl stopped him.
Li Chen was surprised and asked, "Why are you stopping me?"
The Dragon Girl pointed at the Mysterious Forest and explained, "It’s extremely dangerous inside. You are not part of the Dragon Clan. If you enter rashly, it’s bound to be nine deaths and one life!"
After hearing her words, Li Chen smiled faintly.
"In this Heavenly Domain, there has yet to be a Restriction Formation that can trap me, Li Chen!"
He finished speaking and disregarded the Dragon Girl’s advice, transforming into a stream of light and swiftly darting inside.
The Dragon Girl saw this and stomped her foot angrily.
Soon after, she too turned into a stream of light and darted into the Mysterious Forest.
They had just entered when another mysterious black cloud appeared from afar.
As the black cloud dissipated, thousands of silhouettes emerged.
Leading them were four individuals.
Apart from Hei Luan, Bai Bao, and Red Lady, there was also a dwarf-faced gnome.
This dwarf-faced gnome was also an Elder of the Sky Demon Palace.
Moreover, he was skilled in arrays!
The purpose of his trip was to lead a group of Death Soldiers from the Sky Demon Palace, secretly infiltrating Golden Dragon Island through the Mysterious Forest.
Once Ao Xiong succeeds, they would launch a surprise attack, capturing and killing all Dragon Clan members on the island.
This included the Clan Leader Ao Xiong of the Black Dragon Tribe!
Hei Yuan glanced at the golden light burning above the Mysterious Forest and asked the dwarf-faced gnome, "Old Six, are you confident that you can lead three thousand Death Soldiers through the Mysterious Forest within two hours?"
The dwarf-faced gnome stared at the golden light for a moment and replied, "No problem!"
Hei Yuan nodded and said, "It’s good that there’s no problem. From today onwards, the once lofty Dragon Clan will be trampled underfoot by our Beast Spirit Clan, and they will never recover for generations!"
Upon hearing Hei Yuan’s words, Red Lady, Bai Bao, the dwarf-faced gnome, and the others all laughed wildly up at the sky.
Vaguely, they seemed already to see the dawn of victory beckoning to them.
Hei Yuan waved to them, saying, "Okay, now we split into two groups. I will go with Bai Bao, Red Lady, and the dwarf-faced gnome, you two go together, leading these three thousand Death Soldiers through the Mysterious Forest. We will attack on both fronts, delivering a fatal blow to the Dragon Clan!"
The dwarf-faced gnome and Red Lady nodded in response.
Then, he took out a bunch of waist tokens and said to the three thousand Death Soldiers, "These waist tokens have been smeared with the Dragon Clan’s blood, and can make the barrier formations in the Mysterious Forest ineffective. They last for two hours."
"Therefore, you must follow me through the Mysterious Forest within two hours. Otherwise, you will all perish here, understood?"
The three thousand Death Soldiers, with expressions of determination, shouted in unison, "Understood!"
After the special waist tokens were distributed, the dwarf-faced gnome, along with Red Lady, led the three thousand elite Beast Spirit Clan Death Soldiers in batches into the Mysterious Forest.
...
Meanwhile:
Li Chen and the Dragon Girl had already ventured into the Mysterious Forest.
Upon entering, Li Chen felt a powerful pressure sweeping from all directions.
But dealing with these things was just a breeze for Li Chen.
He tossed the Seven-star Dragon Abyss above his head.
A Sword Light appeared as an arc-shaped defensive light shield, enveloping both Li Chen and the Dragon Girl.
Moreover, within this Sword Light, there was a golden dragon shadow.
It was the epitome of the Dragon Soul!
The golden mist sweeping like a mighty river from all directions was completely absorbed by this dragon shadow.
Witnessing this mysterious dragon shadow, the Dragon Girl appeared very curious.
"How many secrets do you have?"
Li Chen smiled faintly and casually retorted, "Don’t you have secrets yourself?"
Upon hearing Li Chen’s retort, the Dragon Girl looked a bit stunned.
"Yes, but I feel that the secrets on me are far fewer than those on you!"
Li Chen smiled slightly and replied, "That’s because you haven’t experienced what I have experienced!"
Upon hearing this profound statement from Li Chen, the Dragon Girl was a bit taken aback.
Considering her current experience, she could not fully comprehend it.
At this moment, Li Chen’s gaze suddenly focused.
"Not good, Little Dragon is in danger!"
The Dragon Girl looked ahead and said, "Perhaps it triggered some barrier?"
Li Chen shook his head and replied, "No, it’s surrounded by people. If I’m not mistaken, it should be the Beast Spirit Clan!"
Upon hearing Li Chen’s words, the Dragon Girl felt a sudden shock in her heart.
She widened her eyes in disbelief.
"Impossible! How could the Beast Spirit Clan enter here?"
"We’ll know at a glance!"
Before he finished speaking, Li Chen transformed into a stream of light, darting forward.
Little Dragon was a road idiot, lacking a sense of direction.
As soon as it entered, it got lost.
And at this moment, the dwarf-faced gnome and Red Lady happened to pass by.
When they saw a Golden Dragon appear, they were startled.
They naturally assumed that their plot was exposed, and experts from the Golden Dragon Tribe had come to intercept them!
However, after the initial panic, they quickly realized the situation wasn’t as they imagined.
The dwarf-faced gnome stared at Little Dragon for a while and said, "This seems to be a juvenile dragon, probably playing around and wandered into the Mysterious Forest!"
Hearing the dwarf-faced gnome say it’s a juvenile dragon, Red Lady drooled with excitement.
"A juvenile dragon, that’s such a nourishing thing. If I can devour it, I surely can break through to new heights!"
Before she finished speaking, she strutted her charming figure toward Little Dragon.
"Little guy, why are you alone here, lost your way?"
