Caiyou glanced at Zhu Minglang. Zhu Minglang rubbed his temples and said helplessly, "We found another mythological beast that was killed. Its bite marks are very similar to the mammoth's. It has already turned into a pile of white bones. Although there are signs of other beasts picking up the carcass, we speculate that it died half a month ago. Therefore, we only have half a month left to find and capture it."
"Good luck. With this Xuan Long, if you cultivate it to maturity, you will be able to walk sideways in Tianshu Shenjiang. No matter how you tease Xuan Ge, Xuan Ge won't dare to do anything to you." Mr. Koi smiled wickedly.
"Sister Xuan Ge won't dare to do anything to me. My wives will kill me." Zhu Minglang said.
… …
For several days in a row, they rushed through the Ancient Mountain Range, not daring to close their eyes for even a moment.
The corpses, scales, feathers, and feces that Zhu Minglang checked these days could already be piled up into a high mountain.
This Little Xuan Long was too cautious. It didn't leave any traces. This Ancient Desolate Forest was so huge that it would take more than half a day to fly from the southernmost to the northernmost area. Moreover, this was only one area of the Ancient Desolate Forest. Zhu Minglang felt like he was looking for a needle in a haystack.
"Generally speaking, dragons have a general range of activity, especially nomadic dragons. They will definitely eat all the prey nearby before changing their location. Therefore, if we can find the third corpse of the Xuan Long, we can lock down the general range." Zhu Minglang said to Caiyou.
"I made a mark in the south. I found a total of thirteen corpses, but I can't be sure if they were killed by the Xuan Long. I need you to check it yourself." Caiyou said.
Caiyou didn't know much about dragons. Only Zhu Minglang could identify scratches, teeth marks, and wounds.
"Mmm, very good. As long as we can find one, we still have hope. Even if we can't find any, we can still pack up and continue on our journey. I'm afraid we have no fate with the Xuan Long," Zhu Minglang said.
Zhu Minglang followed Caiyou and began to examine the corpses.
These corpses were all within a month. In fact, in such a huge Predator Jungle, the number of corpses that were preserved within a month was relatively small. There were probably thousands of species that relied on corpses to survive. When the Predators ate, some daring Insectoids and Birds would even eat alongside them …
To be able to find thirteen of them was already quite good. Moreover, there were often special reasons that caused other creatures to not dare to enjoy the leftovers.
As expected, the first corpse was very special.
It happened to be lying in a pile of poisonous moss. The moss had infected the corpse with poison, allowing it to be preserved until now.
However, because of the poison, Zhu Minglang was unable to examine the corpse in detail. The information he could gather was very limited.
"It died around five days ago. It's perfectly preserved, unlike the Ancestral Mammoth that was only bitten a few times. It must have been abandoned here after it was full," Zhu Minglang said.
"It's a pity that it's highly poisonous. We don't dare to go any closer."
"Mmm, we can only take a look at the other corpses first."
The remaining twelve corpses seemed to have been hunted by dragons, but they didn't seem to match the bite marks on the Xuan Long. There must be more than one dragon living in this ancient mountain range.
Zhu Minglang checked the corpses carefully. He even checked the filthiest intestines, but he failed to find any important clues …
At this moment, Zhu Minglang really missed the Star Paintings.
If she was here, he only needed to replace the Saber Tooth to lock onto the Xuan Long's location.
This was probably the charm of metaphysics. He, who didn't understand metaphysics, could only rely on hard work and wisdom!
"This is the last corpse. It's completely unrecognizable," Caiyou said as she followed behind Zhu Minglang.
"There's no need to look at it. It was hunted by an ancient dragon. The way it ate is exactly the same as Big Black Tooth," Zhu Minglang said with a wry smile.
The thirteen corpses didn't have any obvious marks.
It seemed like he really wasn't fated with the Xuan Long.
Zhu Minglang found a stream and took off his clothes. He went inside to wash himself which was covered in filth.
After changing into a clean set of clothes, Zhu Minglang returned to the tree nest. He was already very tired, so he simply fell asleep.
There were only two days left. If he couldn't find any tracks, then there was no hope …
It wasn't because he was discouraged.
Dragon Shepherds often wasted their efforts when they were chasing after dragons. After all, dragons had always appeared and disappeared mysteriously. The Xuan Long was already considered to have good habits. They only moved once a month. Zhu Minglang once chased after a Soaring Sunset Dragon in Mingmeng God's territory. It had no fixed home and was constantly roaming around. It claimed that it was chasing after the sacred clouds in the sky, forever flying into the distance. In other words, it was an orphan among orphans!
…
After a good night's sleep, Zhu Minglang woke up as the sunlight shone through the gaps between the leaves. The sunlight was particularly warm.
"Caiyou?" Zhu Minglang looked around, but didn't see the soft and fragrant Caiyou.
In the past, Cai You would always sleep by his side obediently. He did not see her. Could it be that she was taken away by some demon or ghost?
Zhu Minglang paled in fright.
He was a Righteous God, so he had the aura of a Righteous God. Even if he lowered his guard, some strange creatures wouldn't dare to approach him. However, although Caiyou had a high cultivation base, she wasn't a Righteous God. Some dark otherworldly creatures could still kidnap her!
Zhu Minglang hurriedly used his Soul Consciousness to search, but he couldn't find Caiyou. However, he sensed that the Thunder God Zi Long was several hundred miles away from him.
Zhu Minglang then remembered that the Thunder God Zi Long was keeping watch last night. If something happened to Caiyou, the Thunder God Zi Long should have told him …
"Qing Zhuo, let's go!"
Zhu Minglang summoned the Blue Phoenix Dragon and jumped on its back, flying above the Sea of Green Woods.
It didn't take long for them to arrive at the Thunder God Zi Long's location. The Thunder God Zi Long was curled up on a giant tree. Its slender tail was raised high, shining and swaying, indicating to Zhu Minglang, the Blue Phoenix Dragon, and the Blue Phoenix Dragon that it was here.
Zhu Minglang was a little confused. Wasn't this the location of the first corpse? The corpse lying in the poisonous moss had been moved to the grassland. Caiyou was squatting next to it, grinding some red grass into juice and smearing it on the corpse.
"You didn't sleep the whole night. What are you doing here?" Zhu Minglang asked.
"My God, I found this kind of Heart Cleansing Grass. It can cure most of the toxins. Therefore, I wanted to wash this corpse. Maybe there will be some clues." Caiyou's forehead was full of sweat.
Her hands were full of grass juice and poisonous moss. Zhu Minglang used his sleeve to help her wipe her hands.
