Just like what Long Xiang said, they didn't encounter any trouble, not even a small fish. Zhao Hai even collected some of the underground river's water into the Space. He thought that the river water was poisonous, so there were no beasts. However, what surprised Zhao Hai was that the river water wasn't poisonous, it was even highly nutritious. This made Zhao Hai feel even more strange.
At this time, Zhao Hai suddenly felt something approaching at high speed. This feeling wasn't discovered by his spiritual force, but by his golden spiritual force. Zhao Hai immediately stopped and said, "Everyone be careful, something is coming."
Just as Zhao Hai said this, Long Xiang waved his hand, signaling everyone to stop. Then Long Xiang turned to look at Zhao Hai and nodded.
Zhao Hai also nodded towards Long Xiang. He discovered that Long Xiang also noticed something approaching at the same time. This showed that Long Xiang's spiritual force was very strong, at least it was stronger than the others.
At this time, the others also felt something approaching and became nervous. However, Zhao Hai wasn't nervous. This was because he discovered that Deng Wen and the others weren't nervous at all. If they weren't nervous, then it meant that the thing that was approaching wasn't dangerous. So there was no need for Zhao Hai to be nervous.
Before long, Zhao Hai knew what was coming. It was an eel-like thing. However, this thing was ten meters thick and had a mouth full of sharp teeth. One could see that it wasn't easy to deal with.
When this big guy saw Long Xiang, it immediately opened its mouth and swam over. Besides Deng Wen and the others, only Zhao Hai wasn't nervous. Zhao Hai often dealt with all kinds of magic beasts. He discovered that the big eel didn't want to harm Long Xiang. On the contrary, the eel's expression was very happy.
Sure enough, the big eel swam to Long Xiang's side and rubbed its huge body against Long Xiang's. Long Xiang also patted the eel's body, then he turned his head and said, "Let's go. Everyone follow this big guy, we'll have a place to rest today."
Everyone nodded and followed the big eel. They swam for a few hours. Although they weren't afraid of not being able to breathe in the water, it was much more difficult to travel in the water than on the ground. Everyone was now very tired.
At this time, the big eel turned to the side and a huge water hole appeared. Long Xiang immediately followed the eel into the water hole, and the others quickly followed.
Before long, Zhao Hai and the others discovered that the water hole was very big and very long. Moreover, the water hole was very smooth, allowing the big eel to move freely inside. It was clear that this was its home.
Moreover, everyone discovered that the water hole's terrain was slowly rising. Before long, everyone felt their bodies become lighter. They suddenly discovered that they were now in an underground lake, and they were now coming out of the lake's surface.
This underground cave was surrounded by an incomparably huge underground cave. Everyone looked around and discovered that there were traces of people living in this underground cave.
While everyone was in a daze, Long Xiang said, "Alright, let's go ashore and rest. This is a secret base left behind by our Long Family. For many years, no one has ever discovered it. It's very safe." Then Long Xiang took the lead and went ashore, and the others quickly followed behind.
After everyone went ashore, Long Xiang took out several luminous pearls and placed them on the walls of the cave. There were several depressions on the walls that could be used to place the pearls.
When the pearls were placed on the walls, the cave immediately lit up. Although it was impossible to illuminate the entire cave, at least the place where everyone was resting was very bright.
Everyone also noticed that the place where they were resting was a man-made platform. Although this place was next to the underground lake, the platform was very dry. It was the best place to rest.
After everyone sat down, Long Xiang said in a deep voice, "You don't have to be surprised. That electric eel was originally raised by our Long Family. It was placed here to protect this waterway. This waterway is one of the most important transportation routes for our Long Family in the underground world. Of course, we have to find a way to protect it."
Everyone understood what was going on. In fact, it wasn't just Zhao Hai, the others were also very strange. They didn't understand why there were no beasts in such a big waterway. But when they saw the electric eel, everything was explained.
Everyone didn't have the mood to think about how the Long Family managed to raise an electric eel here. In any case, there was no danger. Everyone immediately took the time to rest and meditate. They wanted to restore themselves to their best condition as soon as possible.
Everyone rested in the cave for about four hours. Then they entered the underground lake and swam forward through the underground river.
After swimming for another five hours, everyone suddenly saw a light in front of them. Just as everyone was stunned, Long Xiang said, "Everyone pay attention, we're about to leave the underground river. After leaving the underground river, there's a lake. There's a small island in the middle of the lake, it's called the Snake Island. The island is filled with poisonous snakes, but we can rest on the island for a while. After leaving the island, we can enter the territory of the Ghost Shadow Sect."
Everyone stared blankly. They didn't think that they would pass through the territory of the Ghost Spirit Sect so quickly. Now that they have entered the territory of the Ghost Shadow Sect, this was a pleasant surprise for them.
Long Xiang looked at everyone and said, "After entering the territory of the Ghost Shadow Sect, we will take action. This place isn't too far from our target. It will only take about two days. I will choose the path. Alright, everyone pay attention. We are going out." Just as Long Xiang's voice fell, everyone felt the pressure on their body lighten. They appeared on the surface of the lake.
At this time, the big eel swam to Long Xiang's side and rubbed its body against Long Xiang. Then it swam back to the underground river with a wave of its tail.
Long Xiang led the group and swam forward for a while. Soon, the group saw the outline of an island. This island wasn't very big, but the group had been in the water for a long time. Now that they saw land, they naturally felt a sense of familiarity. They swam very fast and arrived at the island in a short time.
Just as everyone was about to get on the island, Long Xiang suddenly said, "Wait a moment." Everyone stared blankly and stopped. Then, Dragon Xiang suddenly waved his hand and a string of water droplets flew out from his hand. These water droplets were divided into a thousand portions and everyone was stained with a water droplet. Long Xiang then said, "Get on the island. Reckless people. If you get on the island, you would have already been swallowed by the snakes."
Everyone understood Long Xiang's meaning. They were somewhat embarrassed. However, the temptation of getting on the island was even bigger. Everyone immediately got on the island. But as soon as they got on the island, it was as if they were immobilized. They stood there and didn't dare to move.
At this time, Long Xiang, Deng Wen, and the others got on the island. Zhao Hai was also behind them. When he saw the situation on the island, Zhao Hai was stunned. Before, he heard Long Xiang say that this was Snake Island. There were a lot of poisonous snakes on the island. Now that he saw the situation on the island, Zhao Hai understood what Long Xiang meant. There were a lot of poisonous snakes on the island.
There were a lot of trees on the Snake Island. However, there were even more stones. Whether it was on the trees or on the stones, one could see countless poisonous snakes. These snakes were big and small, thick and thin. Some of them had bright colors while others had dark colors. There were so many of them that it was hard to count. Anyone who saw this situation would feel their scalp tingle.
Long Xiang looked at the people who got on the island. He smiled faintly and shook his head. Then he turned to Deng Wen and said, "Old Deng, how come the youngsters are getting more and more impatient. Do you still remember the people who came here last time?"
Deng Wen glanced at the frightened cultivators and said in a low voice, "At least be more patient than them."
Long Xiang chuckled. Then he turned to the people and said, "You don't have to be afraid. You are smeared with snake venom. These snakes will treat you as their own kind. Even if you sleep on their bodies, they wouldn't bite you."
When everyone heard Long Xiang's words, they regained their senses. Then they looked at each other and smiled bitterly. Anyone who saw so many powerful snakes would be frightened. Not only were there a lot of snakes, they were also very powerful. Some of the snakes even had the strength to teleport. It would be a lie to say that they weren't afraid.
Although they found that the snakes didn't bite them, they still didn't have the courage to approach them. Everyone found a place to sit down.
Long Xiang looked at these people and was slightly disappointed. Among these people, only the people from the Imperial Beast Sect dared to approach the snakes. The people from the other sects didn't dare to approach the snakes. This was also the reason why Long Xiang was disappointed, because he found that the cultivators nowadays were becoming more and more timid.
At this time, Long Xiang suddenly saw a person slowly walking towards the snakes. He didn't walk fast, but he also didn't look very careful. On the contrary, he looked like he was taking a leisurely stroll in his own courtyard. This person was Zhao Hai.
When Long Xiang saw Zhao Hai's appearance, he couldn't help but stare. Then he smiled faintly. His impression of Zhao Hai was very good. And Zhao Hai didn't disappoint him. Now, when everyone was afraid to approach the snakes, only Zhao Hai dared.
Zhao Hai didn't care about other people's gazes. He walked towards a rock. Under the rock, there was a large colorful snake. This snake was as thick as a bowl. It was coiled up on the rock, seemingly sleeping.
However, when Zhao Hai walked over, the snake suddenly stood up and hissed at him. Upon seeing this, Long Xiang's expression couldn't help but change. He immediately shouted, "Zhao Hai, be careful. You entered his territory. Be careful. He might attack you." The others also looked at Zhao Hai. Some were secretly worried, while some were taking pleasure in his misfortune.
