We Agreed To Set Sail and Become the Ruler of the Deep Sea? - #140 - Chapter 140: Gu Long's heart, Joey's bloodline transformation!

Chapter 140 Gu Long’s heart, Joey’s bloodline transformation!

 After solving the dragon turtle guarding the black stone vein, the process of obtaining the [Black Stone Essence] became extremely smooth.

 Not long after, Xia En filled a bottle of [Black Stone Essence].

Unlike solid black stone, the [Black Stone Essence] located at the core of the vein is actually a viscous, pitch-black liquid with a deep luster.

This kind of potion material is actually escaping the secret power that dries up living things every moment.

 Hence, special containers must be used to hold them.

 Fortunately, Xia En had made preparations beforehand and asked for the isolation stone bottle from the Queen of the Sea Tribe, which happened to be used at this moment.

 Looking at the [Crimson Reality] in the [Ring of Apocalypse], the bottled [Black Stone Essence], and the [Celestial Star Sea Star] in the box.

Xia En couldn’t hide the excitement in his heart, and raised the corners of his mouth.

“Finally, I got together the magic potion to advance to the third level.”

“Next, as long as the career compatibility is maxed out, you can try to get promoted!”

 “Isn’t this the guy I just let go?”

With his strength, there is no big problem in dealing with these dragon-turned-monkey monsters. It is better to see what the opponent wants to do.

“Calculating the time, it should take another three or four days.”

 The monkey monster nodded heavily and looked at Xia En with awe and expectation.

“Wait a minute, you want to invite me to be the king of your tribe?”

Some monkey monsters even knelt down beside him, showing respect and worship.

Shaan had a strange expression.

 “Is this big guy a scourge to your tribe?”

  Primitive tribes like them have always followed the rule that the strong is king.

He has not forgotten that he just killed a group of monkey monsters not long ago, and he doesn’t know whether these guys didn’t know or didn’t care.

 It is naturally perfect to be the king of the ethnic group.

 On the offshore island, the Archon of an island is only the third level. From this, we can also see the status of the third level Mystic.

Xia En has already reached the threshold of the third level in less than half a year since he traveled through time.

Just when he was about to go on a killing spree to earn some experience points, he discovered that the leader of the monkey monster seemed a bit familiar.

After making the plan, Xia En walked out of the depths of the mine, only to see several monkey monsters standing on both sides of the valley looking at him.

“You have to send your fellow tribesmen as sacrifices every once in a while, otherwise it will attack your territory?”

 After hesitating for a moment, Xia En still did not take action directly.

　Judging from their attitude, not only is there not much hostility, but there is also a sense of gratitude?

Seeing the arrival of the outsiders, the monkey monsters poked their heads out from the branches and looked curiously at the combination of two people and one dragon.

This is a very primitive village. The monkey monsters live in wooden houses built in the trees. The furnishings in the village are quite simple, but at least there are some prototypes of primitive tools.

 Xia En thought they were here to seek revenge.

 “Gahwu!”

If this kind of deeds spread, I don’t know how many people would be shocked.

At this time, the leading monkey monster noticed their presence. After a strange cry, it ran over on all fours.

 “Take advantage of this period of time to explore this island again and let Joey complete the transformation of his bloodline.”

Shaan protected Joey Hexiange behind him and looked at the monkey monsters with some vigilance.

 “Gah woo woo!”

But the monkey monsters showed such an attitude that it was hard for him to kill them.

 “Gahwu…Gahwu!”

However, Xia En has always been merciless when dealing with enemies who actively attack him.

“Um?”

Soon, Xia En rejected the request to become the Monkey King.

 But whether it was the coercion he exuded or his record of killing the terrifying dragon turtle, it was enough to prove how powerful the opponent was.

 After a rather difficult exchange, Xia En finally understood the ins and outs of the matter.

After arriving at Xia En, the monkey monster pointed at the dragon turtle corpse not far away, then pointed at Xia En, and started dancing and shouting.

Although I don’t know why the people of the same species in front of me don’t have scales or long hair.

Hence, other monkey monsters also rushed over, jumping and screaming around Xia En.

 But under the kind invitation of the monkey monsters, a group of people came to the territory where they live.

 No wonder Xia En is a little excited and looking forward to it.

 “Does it want revenge, or…”

 After all, that is a third-level secret path user!

 The third-level secret path masters are considered to be powerful men with a strong reputation in Qihai.

The monkey monster that led the way earlier called out to his fellow humans a few times, as if explaining the situation to them.

 Subsequently, the other monkeys also shouted in surprise, looking at Xia En with awe and gratitude in their eyes.

Some monkey monsters also took out the picked wild fruits and presented them to Xia En.

It was only then that Xia En realized that this group of monkey monsters did not seem to be the same group of monkey monsters that attacked him before?

 They are not that aggressive, their character is not too violent, and they can even conduct simple communication.

“How is this going?”

Xia En was a little surprised.

　Judging from the description of the previous trophies, creatures contaminated by the blood of the profane dragon will become manic and irritable.

Not only do they have strong hostility towards outsiders, but they also fight among themselves.

The behavior of these dragon-turned-monkey monsters is obviously abnormal.

At this moment, Joey’s eyes suddenly fell in one direction of the village, he raised his finger and pointed there, and said in surprise.

 “Mr. Captain, look, look!”

 Xia En looked along her fingertips.

I saw a small pond with crystal clear water hidden among the dense vegetation.

 In the pond, there stands a statue as tall as one person!

The statue is obviously carved of a woman. She has a graceful figure, her head is covered with gauze, and a long skirt depicting many wave ripples hangs down.

Although the surface of the statue has been mottled and worn by the years, there are still many fine cracks.

 She still has an indescribable sense of sanctity and presence.

As long as you look at the statue, you can feel a vague feeling of being washed and sheltered.

 “This is…the Storm Goddess Statue?!”

 Xia En’s heart skipped a beat.

 He once got a small statue of the goddess, so he could see the true identity of the statue at a glance.

However, Xia En also quickly discerned that there was one obvious difference between this and the Storm Goddess statue in his impression –

 The lower body of the goddess statue does not have human feet.

 But a scaly fish tail like a siren!

“Sure enough, the storm goddess’s siren theory is not groundless, but most likely the truth!”

Seeing this scene, Xia En’s thoughts started to spin rapidly.

“Perhaps in the earliest times, the statues of the Storm Goddess were all in this state of human body and fish tail.”

“And the later ones…may be believers of the Deep Sea Church, or they may be other forces. In order to cover up the truth of history, they changed the statue to its current appearance.”

It is not difficult to guess that the reason why the dragon-turned-monkey monsters of this tribe did not become violent like other creatures on the island is precisely because of the protection of this goddess statue.

 But the problem is…

 Why does this statue of God appear here?

Xia En looked at the smartest monkey monster from before, pointed at the statue of the Storm Goddess, and tried hard to express his meaning.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　Karma?

 In the end, I don’t know if the monkey monster understood it. It thought for a moment, seemed to have made some determination, turned around and walked towards the forest.

Shane did not hesitate and followed behind the monkey monster with Joey and the song.

This time, the monkey monster was extremely cautious when leading the way, as if he was afraid of disturbing some powerful being.

 And Xia En soon discovered that the route they were taking was exactly the direction going deep into the island.

 The surrounding woods are becoming denser and taller.

The mountain road at the foot became steeper and seemed a bit rugged.

Several existences with powerful auras were wandering and patrolling in the mountains and forests not far away, exuding a faint pressure.

at the same time.

Even Xia En could smell it. There was an old, rusty smell of blood in the air.

This **** smell contains the secret power of the ancient dragon, but there is also a weird and evil feeling that makes people instinctively feel uncomfortable.

After seeing the corpse of a dragon turtle covered with [Eyes of Truth], Xia En already understood that this feeling of discomfort came from the so-called “blasphemy of truth.”

 “Where does this little monkey want to take us?”

Xia En frowned slightly, but out of trust in the monkey monster’s previous actions, he still chose to continue to follow.

Strangely, although the powerful aura not far away from the forest continued to increase, the group of people miraculously escaped being attacked.

Shaan guessed that this was related to the path chosen by the monkey monster.

This forest path leading to the high mountains seems to be located exactly at the border of the territory of dragon evil creatures.

These creatures were afraid of and wary of each other, so they did not attack Xia En and others.

  In other words, only the local monkey monster can lead the way to know such a “safe passage.”

If it were Xia En who was exploring on his own, he would probably have to fight his way out.

 …

 …

 We walked through the mountains and forests for an hour.

Xia En and others were already at the high point of the mountain range. Looking back, they could see the dense woods below them.

If it were not blocked by the fog, I might even be able to see the [Black Swan] on the coast.

At this time, everyone has reached the end of the mountain road.

 Xia En looked forward intently.

 In front, is a platform on the top of the mountain.

 The center of the platform is sunken downwards, forming a wide lake.

—This kind of topography is quite similar to Tianchi in the previous life.

 However, unlike Tianchi, the color of this lake is dark red!

 Everything you see is blood that smells like blood!

 “Woo woo…”

When he came here, the monkey monster seemed to feel discomfort and fear instinctively. His body trembled slightly and pointed in the direction of the center of the lake.

Xia En looked up, his breathing stagnating slightly.

In the **** lake, a huge dragon-shaped skeleton was standing there.

Even though there was no flesh and blood, even though it had been dead for a long time, the moment he saw it, Xia En still felt a kind of coercion coming from the depths of his blood.

In a daze, he seemed to see a terrifying giant dragon, staring at him with its cold vertical pupils, and making an earth-shattering roar!

Roar!

Suddenly, a childish but equally majestic dragon roar sounded, dispersing the illusion in front of Xia En’s eyes.

He turned around and saw Xian Ge, who was usually unreliable, suspended in mid-air, with his wings flapping slightly.

The scales on its body shimmered with a faint brilliance, as if it were covered with a layer of magical armor, and the ancient power was revealed on its body.

Those eyes seemed to be burning with bronze flames, and they expanded with a majesty that was not inferior to the bones of ancient dragons.

 “A fellow member of the same clan that I have never met before, I am the bronze dragon, Xiange Maya!”

 “Come to free you!”

Perhaps it was Gu Long’s remaining consciousness that understood Xian Ge’s words.

Perhaps it was the dragon power of Xian Ge that overwhelmed the corpse, and Xia En and Joey suddenly felt that the pressure was relieved.

At this time, Xia En could also see that there were statues of the Storm Goddess one after another in the **** lake.

 Some of them were lying horizontally in the lake, and some were leaning forward.

 Some bodies were broken into pieces of stone, while others still maintained their intact form.

So many broken statues of gods add an indescribably weird atmosphere to this blood lake, like a solemn cemetery or the scene of some evil ritual.

 Obviously, the goddess statue in the monkey tribe came from this **** lake.

 But the problem is still the same.

 Why do these statues of gods exist here?

 “Mr. Captain.”

 Suddenly, Joey on the side frowned slightly, and said hesitantly and confusedly.

“I heard… something was calling me in the center of the lake.”

“Um?”

Xia En frowned slightly.

He noticed that the aura on Joey’s body was a little restless, and the secret power in his body was slightly escaping.

  Observe carefully, there is a faint blue halo flowing in the girl’s red pupils, and some scales emerge from her body surface.

Xia En suddenly realized: “This **** lake is the ancestral land mentioned by the sea monsters!”

The numerous Storm Goddess statues here may also be related to the ancestor of the Sirens!

As for the blood in the lake, it comes from the ancient dragon that died here.

 But the ancient dragon happened to fall in the ancestral land of the Kraken. Is this really just a simple coincidence?

 Shane had his doubts.

 But now that we are all here, there is no reason to retreat.

After stopping for a moment, Xia En watched the monkey monster disappear, and then cautiously moved toward the depths of the lake.

The water of the Bloody Lake is not deep, but it is unrealistic to walk across it on foot.

Xia En simply used the [Blood Shaping Secret Technique] of [Blood Power] to shape a medium-sized blood raft, and then rowed it towards the center of the lake.

Being on the blood lake, Xia En could more clearly sense the filthy smell of blasphemy.

If he guessed correctly, it was the water from this blood lake that flowed down the mountain and polluted the water sources of nearby mountains, causing the creatures on the island to mutate.

In fact, there are many dangerous dragon-shaped creatures hidden not only under the mountains, but also in the blood lake.

Xia En could sense that there were many malicious peeks coming from all directions.

 But this time, Xian Ge was reliable for the first time in a long time.

The majesty of the ancient dragon exudes, making those dragon-shaped creatures dare not approach.

Not long after, they arrived on the raft to the middle of the lake, where there was a small platform.

 A particularly tall goddess statue is located on a high platform.

From her body, there was deep red blood dripping down the hem of her skirt and falling into the lake below.

That blood comes from the palm of the goddess statue.

There, lying a huge, still beating heart!

“This is?”

 Xia En was shocked, but he hadn’t yet figured out the reason behind it.

next moment.

Joey beside him had already walked under the statue of the goddess, and the illusive and vague sound of the waves came from very far away.

 A sacred, non-mortal gaze fell on the girl!
