Everything seemed to have returned to how it was when he first entered this place.
Garon fainted completely.
The armor of the Suffering Knight behind him exploded instantly, like a high-quality crystal glass, it exploded into countless crystal shards. Countless black runes tried to escape like tadpoles, but they were immediately frozen by the immense Draconic Aura. Boom!
All the runes exploded into even finer shards once again. This time, they completely disappeared, turning into the most basic flow of negative energy and converging into the air.
"My Lord …!!" The Suffering Knight's final voice echoed in the abyss, and there was no sound after that.
Everything returned to its original calm. The Draconic Aura slowly faded, as if it had never appeared before.
Countless black smoke with human faces surrounded Garon like swimming fish. They tried to burrow into Garon's skin, ears, and each of them tried to occupy Garon's body as a Dragon Whelp.
However, it was as if there was a thin layer of light covering Garon's body, preventing him from being harmed.
Time passed slowly. The abyss was forever dark, and no one knew whether it was day or night.
After an unknown amount of time, Garon slowly woke up.
The dense black smoke of human faces in the surroundings immediately dispersed like frightened little fish. At the same time, Garon, who had been held in mid-air by them, fell down hard again.
He quickly flapped his wings and tried to float up.
Looking at the darkness around him, Garon recalled the previous situation.
"What happened just now?" He felt a splitting headache.
The Suffering Knight who was chasing after him was gone. He suddenly remembered.
"Could it be that he was crushed to death by the Draconic Aura?"
What surprised him the most was that the soul rings that he had detonated were all intact. It was simply a miracle.
He clearly remembered that at the last moment, he detonated all his Soul Rings in an instant to obtain the maximum amount of power. He did not expect all his Soul Rings to be intact.
"What the hell!" Garon muttered in his heart. Although he did not understand what happened, it was obvious that someone had saved him.
He floated in the darkness and looked down. He saw that the colorless light source was very close to him.
He simply flew down. It was obvious that the unknown existence below had saved him. Since he had been saved, no matter what, he had to go down and thank the other party.
As he flew closer and closer, Garon soon landed at the edge of the huge light source.
The light source was very small, only about ten meters in diameter. The inside of the light source was pale white, and one could only vaguely see the scene inside.
He walked around the ball of light. The bottom of the abyss was flat, as if it had been polished by someone. It didn't hurt his feet at all.
This place seemed to be a rather large palace.
After Garon circled around the area, he vaguely sensed something.
He found a stone tablet in the surroundings.
Half of the black stone tablet was inserted into the ground, and the other half was exposed. There seemed to be some words carved on it. It was the Dragon Language that he knew, but the grammar was somewhat ancient.
Garon used the little bit of light to read the words carefully.
"Heinous crimes … the dragon that devours everything … the core of the earth …"
Most of the content at the back was blurred, completely blurred by scratches.
Garon examined the stone tablet for a long time but was unable to restore it. He grabbed the stone tablet with all his might.
"Hiss."
A layer of white powder actually came off from his claws.
The stone tablet was very hard. Even the sharp dragon claws could not leave a mark on it. This surprised Garon.
He walked around the light source in the darkness again, and found the same stone tablets in two other places. Similar handwriting was engraved on them.
One of the stone tablets had the words: Forbidden Land.
The other stone tablet had the words: Sleep, Do Not Disturb, Disaster.
The rest of the words were blurred, and there were many paragraphs in the middle that could not be distinguished.
Garon looked at the stone tablet, and checked the surroundings again.
Strangely, this was clearly the center of the abyss, but those black smoke with human faces did not come close at all. They seemed to be afraid of something.
Garen thought about it for a while, and then walked towards a place further away.
He followed the bottom of the abyss, and walked around in a big circle.
He finally understood the structure of this place.
The entire abyss was the size of a few football fields. It was circular, and the light source protected by the stone tablet was right in the middle.
Soon, Garon found a sticky black thing in an empty space. He felt that this thing's aura was very similar to the Suffering Knight that was chasing after him just now, so he grabbed it immediately.
This thing seemed to be a soft rubber ball like a piece of gum. There was a big dark red symbol shining on it. It looked like the letter Y, but it was much more distorted.
As soon as he held it in his hand, he felt a cooling Soul Power aura flowing out of the rubber ball.
"Soul Power!" Garon was delighted. He quickly put the ball away and held it in his claws.
Strangely enough, Garen was able to see what was inside the light source even though he was looking at it from afar.
It was a golden ball, a dragon's eye. It was vague in the white light, and was not very clear, but he could still tell that it was a golden dragon's eye with vertical pupils.
Garon was a little shocked.
It would be fine if it was a giant beast from another world, but as a dragon of this world, to be able to develop such a huge eyeball, he did not know how big its real body was.
And in this world, a giant dragon with such a huge body would definitely not be a nobody.
From afar, he could vaguely see a woman in a black dress floating in the dragon's eye.
'If this place is a seal, then the person who can be sealed here is definitely not an ordinary person.' The thought flashed through his mind.
Looking at the dragon's eye, he thought for a while, then spoke loudly.
"Thank you for saving my life, Master. My name is Garon, a White Dragon Whelp. "
His voice echoed in the darkness. There was no response.
It was still silent. The woman in the ball of light did not move, as if she did not hear him at all.
"Thank you, Sir, for saving my life!" Garen shouted again, but this time, his voice was louder.
However, there was still no response. The bottom of the abyss was still silent.
Garon hesitated, and thought about the content on the stone tablet. Could it be that the woman inside was just sleeping? Did she save him unconsciously just now? Impossible!
If it was just an unconscious defense, it was impossible for him to be unscathed from an attack of this level. Unless the other party was specifically protecting him.
"This is not a place you should be, you can leave now." Suddenly, a cold male voice came from the light source.
The moment Garon heard this voice, he felt as if the Soul Power in his body was vibrating and resonating. It was as if the other party could destroy all his Soul Rings with just his voice.
His blood and heart raced, and it took him a long time to calm down. Only then did he realize that the curse on his body had been removed.
After taking a few deep breaths, he finally looked at the woman in the center of the light source.
Garon flapped his wings and flew out of the abyss.
This time, it seemed to have the will of the woman in the light source. Countless black smoke with human faces condensed into a layer of high waves under him, quickly lifting him up and throwing him out of the abyss.
Garon looked back down. The ball of light was getting farther and farther away, dimmer and dimmer, until it completely disappeared from his sight.
"After you get out, don't mention this place to anyone, remember." The clear male voice once again penetrated through the distance and entered his mind.
Garon was not surprised that the other party had a man's voice despite being a woman. These powerful beings had all kinds of strange things, so this situation was considered normal.
He just felt strange. The other party did not have any reason to save him this time. A Rank Seven Suffering Knight was crushed like an ant in the eyes of the other party, let alone him who was weaker than the Suffering Knight.
With such doubts, Garon was shot out of the crack in the snow mountain by countless black smoke, flying in the direction he came from. Soon, he flew back to the snowstorm on the other side of the lake.
In the abyss.
The woman in the light source moved her body. Her arms stretched slightly.
"White Dragons have always been selfish, their souls are as filthy as the black soil. Who would have thought that there would be an anomaly, whose soul is as transparent as a crystal …" The man's voice echoed in the light source.
"Anomaly … Hehe … So strong and strong … Interesting little White Dragon."
She faintly remembered herself in the beginning. She was also an anomaly among the Dragon Clan, and also went against the nature of the clan.
A sense of fatigue surged in her heart. She fell into a deep sleep again, or rather, to cultivate.
*****
By the time Garon finally found his way back to the clan, more than a month had passed.
When he returned to the clan, almost all the Dragon Whelps thought that he was dead. They did not expect him to return. The Dragon Whelps in the breeding center, especially those who survived the fight for the Ice Stalagmite, stared at Garon with dissatisfaction. After all, the biggest prize, the Ice Stalagmite, was snatched by him. Fortunately, there were a few Rank Five and Rank Four Crystal Cores to share. Otherwise, Garon would have been even more hated.
After returning, Garon explained his situation to Safour, Satwo, and Sathree. He said that he lost his way in the snowstorm, lost the Ice Stalagmite, and could not bring it back. In the end, he finally found his way back after going through untold hardships.
Initially, the brothers and sisters did not believe him. However, after seeing Garon's injuries and his body that did not show any signs of improvement, they believed most of it.
After Garon returned, before he could go to class, Saszt, Boris, and the others went to his residence to ask about the situation.
"What! The Ice Stalagmite was lost!!?? "Boris's mouth was wide open, his face full of disbelief.
Saszt, who was beside him, also had a pained expression.
"How could it be lost? If I knew it would be lost, I would have pounced on it and bit it a few times! "
Leona was more concerned about Garon's body.
"Then what's with the injuries on your body? Why are there so many scars? "
"I was injured by a Giant Iguana …" Garon answered helplessly. "I got lost along the way and encountered a few Giant Iguanas. They were all high-level ones, so I could only run around. In the end, I was caught by a Rank Five Giant Iguana. After being beaten up for a while, I was finally lucky enough to find my way back."
"Who told you to be so greedy!" Leona said in disdain.
"I was going to snatch it first, then bring it back for the few of us to secretly share it. I didn't expect …" Garon put on an aggrieved expression.
"Really?" Leona was still doubtful. Little girls were so gullible.
"Of course it's true. We're a small team!" Garon said loudly. At a time like this, of course, he would not mention that he wanted to keep it for himself.
