No matter how many steps were taken, no matter how much blood was spilled, the ground was still covered in lush greenery. Occasionally, one could see a large patch of flowers that could only be seen in spring and summer.
The Divine Wood Azure Dragon flapped its massive wings. Its bright feathers made it look like a divine Azure Luan as it soared through the clear autumn sky, giving off a majestic and domineering aura.
Zhu Minglang looked down at the ground and saw many demon beasts roaming around.
The tawny land was covered in lush green grass all year round. There were no rivers, but there were countless streams and ponds. Herds of wild cattle and sheep could be seen everywhere. The demon beasts that fed on these beasts were also rampant, especially in the area close to the Pear Blossom Ravine. The terrain was complex and varied, and there were many kinds of creatures living there.
The smallest creatures included rabbits, squirrels, and mountain deer, and the largest creatures included evil dragons, Demon Kings, and demons. It could be said that they formed a rather complete food chain.
It meant that ordinary hunters, farmers, and woodcutters, as well as skilled dragon shepherds and divine mortals, could all find what they wanted here.
Originally, Zhu Minglang had planned to look for clues to the dragon's lair and wanted to plunder some dragon's lair to maintain his wealth. However, it was said that the Pear Blossom Ravine itself was a treasure trove. Zhu Minglang's interest in this place grew even stronger.
As long as they did not fly a long distance, the Divine Wood Azure Dragon could still maintain its stamina.
However, they could not fly so easily after arriving at the Pear Blossom Ravine.
After all, they did not know the terrain well. Who knew if they would encounter a ten-thousand-year-old monster or a Sacred Spirit creature? Zhu Minglang would have a hard time dealing with it.
Following the winding streams, the group began to walk deeper into the Pear Blossom Ravine.
After walking for half a day, Zhu Minglang finally understood why so few people came to the rich Pear Blossom Ravine, and why it was still safe and sound under the pressure of the four countries …
The mountain path was too complicated. They could fall into bottomless caves, poisonous valleys, or undercurrents if they were not careful. It was impossible for the army to enter the Pear Blossom Ravine. Those who were familiar with the path would probably get lost in the Hundred Turns Ravine!
The Pear Blossom Ravine was indeed isolated from the rest of the world. How could anyone come when they asked for help? They could not even find the way to the Pear Blossom Ravine!
Fortunately, Hu Bailing knew about it.
She had gone to the Pear Blossom Ravine more than once when she was young. She had a playmate there. Although they had not seen each other for many years, their relationship.
She had led Zhu Minglang and the rest over countless mountains, through countless caves and underground rivers. Some of the secret passages were even between mountains, and in the densely packed Vine Valley. Zhu Minglang was now most worried not about the death of the dragon, but about how to get back …
"Pear Blossom Ravine is just ahead." Hu Bailing was also panting from walking.
"This is the fourth time I've heard you say this." Zhu Minglang smiled bitterly.
Night was about to fall. Zhu Minglang was a little tired. When he planned to stop and rest, he could vaguely see a light at the end of the ravine.
Zhu Minglang quickly walked to a place with a wider field of vision. He saw countless village lights intertwined to form a brilliant pool of stars. It shone with the stars in the sky. It was very beautiful in the twilight of the mountains.
They had finally arrived!
Zhu Minglang and the others quickened their pace and walked towards the Pear Blossom Ravine's first village.
When they arrived at the village's gate, they saw huge trees that were as thick as ancient pines. They were tightly tied together with huge rattan ropes, forming a rather sturdy giant wall. It blocked the long path that was slowly ascending. On both sides, there were steep cliffs that rose steeply from the ground. Pear trees grew in snowflakes …
Zhu Minglang would believe it if someone told him that the village's gate was a stronghold!
He didn't expect that this group of semi-secluded tribes would actually build such a tight wall. Clearly, they weren't guarding against the greedy armies of the various countries. Instead, they were guarding against the terrifying creatures that lived in this treasure mountain just like them!
"Who are you?" On the towering wall of Giant Wood Village, a youth wearing a beast-fur hat questioned.
"We are from Runyu City. We received a rescue mission and have come to assist you in eliminating the Zombie Dragon," Hu Bailing replied loudly.
"We will open a crack in the door. Come in quickly. The Zombie Dragon is nearby and is watching us," said the youth wearing the beast-fur hat.
The giant door wasn't opened slowly. Instead, it was as if the plants twining around it were being controlled by something. They slowly opened up a gap that a person could pass through.
Zhu Minglang was rather puzzled. On the way here, he didn't smell the scent of a dragon. Instead, he felt that this mountain was rather quiet. There weren't even any arrogant demon spirits or devil spirits roaming around …
Logically speaking, a group of people like them walking in this kind of deep mountain would be targeted by some trolls.
No!
It wasn't a good thing that there weren't any demons roaming around!
That was because the weaker demons were aware that there were more dangerous creatures in this area. Therefore, they didn't dare to come out to hunt!
A crack appeared on the giant wooden door and some firelight leaked out.
At this moment, under the dusky cliff, a pair of greedy and vicious eyes suddenly lit up. It was like a ferocious beast that had been hiding in one place all along, waiting for its prey to pass by in front of it.
Its eyes stared fixedly at the crack in the door, as if there was an endless amount of food in the crack. The evil aura and baleful aura swept over like a storm!!
"Come in quickly!!"
Shouted the youth wearing the beast-fur hat.
Zhu Minglang walked at the back. The others quickly passed through the crack in the vines on the wooden door. When he was about to step in, Zhu Minglang discovered that those vines had actually rapidly grown and twined together. They actually closed the door tightly!
"There's still one more person," Fang Niannian angrily shouted from inside.
When Nan Yu Suo was about to retreat, she discovered that the wooden door had been completely sealed.
"I'll go save him, but the door must not be opened!" said the youth at the top.
"Why can't we open it? That guy is still so far away."
"The Zombie Dragon's aura is poisonous. It's not harmful to humans, but it's extremely harmful to water sources," said Hu Bailing.
"Don't worry about me. I'll deal with this Zombie Dragon first," Zhu Minglang's voice came from the other side of the thick wall.
"The one at the top, don't go down. The one outside is our City Lord. He's very strong," said Hu Bailing.
"Strong? It seems like you know nothing about these Zombie Dragons. "
Zhu Minglang stood outside the wall. The Zombie Dragon wasn't as huge as he had imagined. Its size was only comparable to a ferocious tiger in the forest.
However, the bigger the creature, the greater the threat it posed to humans.
Furthermore, there was something Zhu Minglang couldn't understand.
This guy was clearly hiding under the cliff. It had even passed by not far from where it was hiding. How was it able to escape his senses?
Nan Yu Suo hadn't discovered it either.
After all, they were all Monarchs!
