Dongbo Xue Ying and Jing Qiu were currently flying at high speed above the ice-cold Lake Heart Island. Due to the size of the island, there were many caves as well.
"The region my father entered is rather far from here," Jing Qiu said. "We'll enter from here and gradually approach my father."
"Alright." Dongbo Xue Ying nodded. Suddenly, he frowned as he looked into the distance.
Two streaks of light were flying over.
"Hahaha."
"Isn't that Your Highness Dongbo?"
Two figures streaked across the sky and descended. They were two stage four World Deities with vast auras. One was a plump man dressed in purple robes with two feelers growing out of his head. The other was an ordinary human World Deity, but he carried a large black ruler on his back and wore a black robe. He had the appearance of a cold middle-aged man. The two took the initiative to walk over. The purple-robed fatty said, "Your Highness Dongbo, I visited you a few days ago. Do you still remember me?"
"Monarch Armadillo Jade?" Dongbo Xue Ying laughed. "I didn't think we'd meet on Lake Heart Island."
"Lake Heart Island is so big. Fu Qiong and I discovered Your Highness from afar, so we rushed over immediately," the plump Monarch Armadillo Jade said.
The cold middle-aged man, King Fu Qiong, cupped his hands in greeting. "Your Highness."
"King Fu Qiong, I've long heard of your fame," Dongbo Xue Ying said politely.
"And this is?" Monarch Armadillo Jade looked at the masked silver-haired woman. She was emitting the aura of a stage four World Deity. There were only so many stage four World Deities in the entire Deity world and Dark Abyss.
"This is a good friend of mine, Empress Nine Swords," Dongbo Xue Ying said.
Jing Qiu glanced at Dongbo Xue Ying.
"Greetings, Nine Swords," the two said in unison. They were puzzled as to where this Empress Nine Swords had come from.
"Your Highness, just the two of you are preparing to enter Lake Heart Island?" Armadillo Jade asked.
"Yes, walking the line between life and death can sharpen one's Dao Heart." Dongbo Xue Ying said.
"If Your Highness doesn't mind, shall the two of us accompany you?" Armadillo Jade and King Fu Qiong were clearly prepared for this.
Dongbo Xue Ying and Jing Qiu looked at each other.
This time, they were going to enter from a relatively unfamiliar cave. The dangers were unpredictable, and the two of them were indeed too weak. Monarch Armadillo Jade and King Fu Qiong were much more experienced than the two of them, especially Monarch Armadillo Jade, whose strength was extremely profound. He was probably on par with Eldest Senior Brother Huiming. He was indeed a good helper.
"Hahaha, Brother Armadillo Jade is willing to join us. We couldn't be happier." Dongbo Xue Ying said. "However, we are preparing to enter from the cave in front. I wonder if the two of you will be entering together?"
"It's just up ahead?" Armadillo Jade and King Fu Qiong stared at the nearby cave in astonishment.
King Fu Qiong furrowed his brows and said, "Your Highness Dong Bo, there aren't many great existences that enter this cave. It's better for us to enter a cave we are more familiar with. That way, we will have a greater chance of success. "
"But it's harder to find opportunities in a cave we are too familiar with." Dongbo Xue Ying shook his head. "I've decided to enter from here. If the two of you aren't willing, we'll have to split up. "
"This …"
King Fu Qiong and Monarch Armadillo Jade looked at each other. They soon came to a decision.
The two of them had taken the initiative to join because they wanted to form a friendship with Dongbo Xue Ying. After all, it was easy to form a friendship after experiencing a life and death situation together.
"Fu Qiong, why don't you accompany this Highness Dong Bo? Even if it means risking your life, it's still possible for you to form a good relationship with him. If you can get closer to His Highness Dong Bo, when His Highness reaches the strength of a Paragon in the future, just a little bit of guidance will be enough for you to benefit immeasurably, "Monarch Armadillo Jade advised. The strength of a Paragon was at the level of the three ancestors.
The three ancestors belonged to the Bloodshed God Palace.
There were many others like Monarch Green, Mysterious North Imperial Empress, and others who were free and did not rely on any side. They were all respectfully addressed as' Paragons. '
"Alright." King Fu Qiong immediately came to a decision. "Furthermore, I feel that since Highness Dong Bo dares to enter, he might have something he can rely on."
"Mn. Who knows, he might have obtained some sort of secret treasure map," Monarch Armadillo Jade transmitted.
The two of them came to a decision. Dongbo Xue Ying and Jing Qiu were both startled, but they were inwardly delighted. With two powerful helpers joining them, their chances of success would increase by a few notches. This time, they had come purely to fulfill their desire to save Monarch Mo Xue. In reality, however, the danger of the Lake Heart Island historical remain was such that their chances of success did not even reach 10%.
But no matter how low their chances of success were, they had still come. They had already prepared themselves for failure.
"I'll scout ahead. I've cultivated a secret technique that allows my eyes to see through all illusions," Monarch Armadillo Jade said. His eyes had become incomparably deep, and there seemed to be a vortex within them.
"Alright."
Dongbo Xue Ying, Jing Qiu, Monarch Armadillo Jade, and King Fu Qiong were all extremely powerful, and so they were able to quickly coordinate with each other.
The four of them carefully entered the cave.
… …
The cave was so deep that they couldn't see the end of it.
Dongbo Xue Ying and the others continued to carefully advance. Occasionally, they would encounter a fork in the road.
"Mm. Be careful. There seems to be something terrifying lurking in one of the forks," Monarch Armadillo Jade sent mentally. The four of them were all carrying treasures that could isolate them from detection, making it extremely difficult for enemies to discover them. Alas, the dangers of the Lake Heart Island were far greater than they had imagined. No matter how much they wanted to avoid it, it would be very difficult to avoid it completely.
"Oh?" Dongbo Xue Ying and the others took a closer look as they passed through the fork in the road.
Deep within the fork.
There was a statue of ice there, but the eyes beneath the statue were scarlet red. They were staring in the direction of Dongbo Xue Ying and the others. Or perhaps it was more accurate to say that the ice statue was staring in the direction of the fork.
Dongbo Xue Ying and the others all felt their hearts clench.
"Hurry up and leave." They all had a bad feeling about this.
Moments after they left …
Cracks began to appear on the ice statue, and soon, countless chunks of ice shattered, revealing a black-armored, muscular warrior. This warrior had a single horn that reached the heavens, and his face was covered with yellow fur. His eyes were scarlet red, and he was staring in the direction of the fork. The corners of his lips curled upwards slightly. "It's been too long. Finally, some outsiders have passed through this place. Heh heh heh, I've just awakened, so there's no rush to kill them. I'll take it slow and kill them at the last moment. I hope you can hold on for a bit longer. "
Whoosh.
The black-armored warrior's body touched the icy walls, then he quickly melted into them and disappeared.
… …
"Why do I have a bad feeling about this?" Monarch Armadillo Jade, who was walking in front, looked around with an ugly expression on his face. "Your Highness Dongbo, are you really going to keep going? We don't have any experience in this cave, and we don't know what lies ahead. "
"Just follow this path," Dongbo Xue Ying said.
The safer path was being watched by Withered Tree Old Mother and the rest!
Monarch Armadillo Jade was muttering to himself. I've already discovered three paths of danger, but this Dongbo Xue Ying and that Empress of the Nine Swords have yet to discover a single one! Could it be that they didn't have anything to rely on in this cave? Sigh, this is really troublesome.
Because of the secret technique …
Monarch Armadillo Jade was extremely proficient in detecting danger. His eyes scanned the surroundings, and the profound mysteries of the laws of heaven and earth appeared in his eyes. Even the slightest movement from afar would cause a slight change in the world, and he would be able to detect it.
"Be careful, there's a power approaching us at high speed. Let's flee quickly." Monarch Armadillo Jade hurriedly flew forward, at the same time releasing a formless World Deity energy that enveloped Dongbo Xue Ying and the rest. Their flying speed suddenly exploded, reaching a speed of 600,000 kilometers per second. This caused Dongbo Xue Ying and Jing Qiu to be somewhat speechless. Even they, husband and wife, could not reach such a high speed. Furthermore, he was bringing three people along with him.
Monarch Armadillo Jade's reputation was indeed incredible.
"Boom."
Behind them, a figure tore through the ice and charged into the cave. One could vaguely make out a creature clad in black armor galloping on four hooves. However, it soon disappeared, tunneling into the cave walls.
"It's approaching us at an extremely fast speed." Monarch Armadillo Jade was already moving at an extremely fast speed while carrying Dongbo Xue Ying and the rest. However, at this moment, he was somewhat anxious. "It doesn't even need to make any turns within the mountain. Everything is moving in a straight line, and it's approaching us at its fastest speed. I'm afraid it'll catch up in a few breaths' time. Prepare for battle!"
