The three of them continued to talk about various delicacies. As time went by, the people from the other three Dragon Palaces finally recovered from their injuries and looked at the canyon below with a fiery gaze.
Seeing that they were all ready, Ao Qing and Ao Xue looked at each other, then the latter took out a token and threw it into the canyon with the people from the other three Dragon Palaces.
A layer of water-like ripples gradually covered the canyon, but the token could easily pass through. In an instant, the entire canyon lit up and revealed a passage completely paved with bluestone.
"Friends from the East Sea Dragon Palace, since you have the first choice, then you guys can go in first." The people from the West Sea Dragon Palace looked in the direction of Lin Xiu's group and revealed a malicious smile.
No one knew how long this canyon had existed and what dangers there were. The people from the West Sea Dragon Palace said this to give face to the people from the East Sea Dragon Palace, but in fact, they wanted to let Lin Xiu and the others go in first.
Ao Xue let out a cold snort and didn't hide her disgust for the people from the West Sea Dragon Palace.
"I think you didn't feel good after being taught a lesson by my brothers. Do you want me to summon them and teach them a lesson?"
Hearing Ao Xue's words, the people from the other three Dragon Palaces didn't dare to act rashly. They all came forward with smiles and finally scolded the people from the West Sea Dragon Palace. They all agreed to let the people from the West Sea Dragon Palace go in first, which made Ao Xue satisfied.
When the people from the other three Dragon Palaces went in, Lin Xiu and the others moved. Looking at the deep and bottomless passage, Lin Xiu felt that something bad was going to happen.
After reaching the Universe Realm, they also had a certain understanding of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth. For strong people like them, their premonitions of the future were often extremely accurate. This was also a special method for strong people to seek good fortune and avoid calamity.
He told Ao Qing and Ao Xue to be careful, then he slowed down his pace and carefully looked around, ready to deal with any sudden situation. Lin Xiu was prepared.
At this moment, a scream suddenly came from afar, causing Lin Xiu and the others to be nervous. They directly sped up and rushed in the direction of the sound.
A large group of people were gathered here. On the ground, a large pool of blood could be vaguely seen.
"This brother from the West Ocean Dragon Palace is so unlucky. As soon as he arrived here, he was attacked by an unknown sea beast for some reason. His Qi and blood were instantly devoured, and all that's left is this pool of blood." A young master from the North Ocean Dragon Palace shook his head and sighed. Although he sounded sympathetic to the West Ocean Dragon Palace, his expression was indifferent.
Since they entered the relic together, it meant that they were in a competitive relationship. The more the West Ocean Dragon Palace lost, the better it would be for the other forces.
The faint smell of blood entered his nose and Lin Xiu's expression became more and more serious. He faintly felt that this matter was definitely not as simple as it seemed on the surface.
Everyone continued to move forward and Lin Xiu was finally able to see the entire ruins clearly. He saw a group of exquisite palaces quietly sitting in the depths of the vast sea.
Even though a long time had passed, the buildings were still magnificent. In the center of the square, there was a huge statue.
This statue was of a middle-aged man with a crown on his head. The decorations on his body were extremely exquisite and he was holding a trident in his right hand.
"Oh my god, am I seeing things? Is this statue the legendary sea god?" The people from the South Ocean Dragon Palace exclaimed and immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Legend has it that before the Dragon Clan became the overlord of the entire sea, all the seas were ruled by the sea god. He had many very powerful sea beasts under his command that could summon the wind and rain and stir up trouble.
Many creatures on land, when they came to the sea to explore, were ordered by the sea god to roll up waves that were tens of thousands of feet high and swallow all the creatures.
The Sea God was confident in his strength, so he did not pay any attention to the warnings of the peak experts on the continent. In the end, because the Dragon clan also had their eyes on the vastness of the ocean, they also made an agreement with the peak powers on the continent.
If the Dragon Clan could destroy the god in the sea, then the other creatures on the continent would have to unconditionally agree that the sea was ruled by the Dragon Clan.
Moreover, the sea was extremely rich in resources. The creatures on the continent could not unite and launch a war against the Dragon Clan.
Because the threat of the sea god was too great at that time, it posed a serious threat to the forces on the continent. In order to preserve their strength as much as possible, the major forces held a discussion and finally agreed to the Dragon Clan's request.
After paying the price of the lives of several peak Manifestation Realm experts, the blood of the Dragon Clan almost dyed the four seas red. After a life and death battle, the sea beasts were finally completely wiped out.
The sea god, who had lost his claws and fangs, became isolated and helpless. Then, when the Dragon Clan attacked his lair, he suddenly disappeared mysteriously. Since then, no one had seen the whereabouts of the sea god.
Everyone stared blankly at the statue in front of them, and endless fear suddenly rose in their hearts.
In the past, even their ancestor had not been able to completely eliminate the formidable sea god. Wasn't it just throwing away their lives by relying on these people, who only had the strength of Cosmos Realm?
The group of people held their breath and focused their gazes on the statue. After the time it took to brew a cup of tea, they discovered that the statue did not possess life as they had imagined. Only then did they let out a long sigh of relief.
"Didn't I say that the sea god had disappeared for who knows how many years? How could he possibly be resurrected?" The person from the Southern Sea Dragon Palace suddenly sneered. After confirming that there was no danger, he became much more courageous.
At that moment, the other people from the Southern Sea Dragon Palace suddenly opened their eyes wide and stared blankly at the back of the person who had spoken. They saw an enormous creature suddenly appear behind him. Its two eyes were like lanterns, and there were two long beards on both ends of its mouth.
"Ah!"
The massive creature widened its mouth and bit towards that Dragon Clan expert of the Southern Sea. After suffering such an attack, that expert immediately transformed into his Divine Dragon Body in a few breaths' time in an attempt to break free from the other party's mouth.
"Sea beast! Damn it, weren't these things extinct a long time ago? " That member of the Southern Sea Dragon Tribe struggled with all his might, but the teeth of that massive creature were extremely sharp. They ruthlessly pierced into the body of the divine dragon. Regardless of how that dragon struggled, it was impossible for him to successfully escape other than leaving behind a pile of blood.
Ao Qing and Ao Xue were also trembling at this time. They came behind Lin Xiu and quietly grabbed the corner of his clothes.
It didn't take long for the strength of the Southern Sea Dragon Clan member to gradually weaken. At the same time, Lin Xiu also sensed that the life aura of the dragon was rapidly weakening.
Everyone stood quietly on the spot, not daring to make any rash movements. The strength displayed by this sea beast wasn't something that they could contend against.
The people from the Southern Sea Dragon Palace stared at the sea beast with hatred as if they wanted to fight it to the death.
After swallowing the Divine Dragon into its stomach, the sea beast let out a satisfied burp. Satisfied, it did not even look at the people on the bed. Shortly after, it gently swayed its tail and swam towards the depths of the palace.
Suffering such a loss right after entering the ruins caused a layer of haze to appear in everyone's hearts. It was so much so that some of the more cowardly ones even had thoughts of retreating.
"Everyone, there are still survivors of the legendary sea beasts that have survived. This is not a trivial matter. In my opinion, the people in this relic are not good people. I will return to the Dragon Palace first and report this matter to the elders. " A person from the West Sea Dragon Palace broke the silence at this moment and suddenly spoke. Then, he directly swam back in the direction he came from, ignoring the others who stopped him.
Everyone stood quietly in place, wanting to see if the people from the West Sea Dragon Palace could successfully leave. If it was possible, they were prepared to leave as well. After all, no matter how good the opportunity in the relic was, it was not as important as their lives.
They didn't have to wait for too long. In a distant place, there was another scream, and it suddenly made everyone's hair stand on end. It seemed that there was a great danger in this relic!
Lin Xiu frowned, then bent down and said to the two girls behind him, "Later, the two of you will follow behind me carefully. Don't leave, otherwise, I won't be able to protect you."
The two dragon ladies immediately nodded like chicks pecking at their food. Their strength was considered to be the lowest amongst the crowd present. If anything happened, they would probably be the first to bear the brunt of it.
The way back was completely blocked. The people from the four major Dragon Palaces gathered together and finally put aside their prejudice against each other and were ready to work together to explore the depths of the relic.
"Everyone, this place is really too strange. No one knows how many sea beasts are still alive. For everyone's safety, we must always pay attention to the movements around us." At this moment, the leader of the North Sea Dragon Palace spoke up, and everyone nodded in agreement.
