Chapter 1039 The situation isn't good.
The Azure Dragon Palace, the eighth underground level.
An earthen-yellow array pattern appeared on the ceiling of the tomb chamber.
A pale blue liquid seeped out from the array on the ceiling, then slowly flowed down, gathered on the ground, gradually took on a human shape, and finally transformed into the appearance of a water spirit priest.
"We successfully infiltrated without alerting the Azure Dragon's consciousness or the underground palace's mechanisms."
The Water Spirit Priest slowly stood up.
The Five Elements Gods knew very well that if they forced their way in through the main gate of the underground palace, they would face great trouble with the fully operational underground palace mechanisms and the hundreds of thousands of stone statues and terracotta warriors inside. Even they were not confident that they could get through.
Therefore, this is the only way.
Looking back now, it seems I successfully skipped class.
The Water Spirit Priest surveyed the surroundings. This eighth level of the underground palace appeared to be a very ordinary tomb chamber, with ancient and exquisite graphite murals on the four walls. In the center of the tomb chamber was an old stone coffin, and there was nothing else.
There is nothing else here.
"So, the only way to get through this is..."
The Water Spirit Priest approached the stone coffin in the center of the tomb and began to observe it carefully.
He raised his hand, gathering water-attribute divine power, and was about to slowly extend it forward when...
"Buzzing..."
Suddenly, the stone coffin began to vibrate and hum!
The Water Spirit Priest's pupils contracted, and he abruptly retreated.
"boom!!!"
The stone coffin lid exploded open!
A streak of blue-green lightning shot out from the stone coffin.
The dragon-human remains of Azure Dragon Old Deng appeared before the Water Spirit Priest!
He had long, flowing white hair, a pair of light blue dragon horns on his head, wore a blue-green ancient-style outfit, had a slender figure, and a long dragon-human tail behind him.
He hovered in the air, his eyes cold, looking down at the intruders before him.
Azure Dragon Elder's sharp and cold gaze swept over the Water Spirit Priest, staring at the priest's robes.
"Who am I? It turns out to be the lackeys of those gods."
Old Deng Qinglong spoke coldly, slowly raising his right arm.
With a clench of his long, slender fingers, countless streams of light gathered in his palm, eventually transforming into a two-meter-long Sacred Azure Dragon Blade!
"Anyone who trespasses into the Azure Dragon Palace shall die!"
Upon seeing this, the Water Spirit Priest remained unfazed, appearing calm and composed.
"It seems the infiltration attempt failed."
"Alright, there's no other way, we'll just have to go through the trouble."
The Water Spirit Priest slowly raised her arms.
He opened the magic box that the Golden Spirit Priest had given him.
A dark, water-attribute energy spread from his body, enveloping the entire underground tomb chamber and forming a thin, translucent, dark blue membrane barrier, as if completely isolating the tomb chamber from the outside world.
At the same time, two streams of blue water flowed continuously from the two sleeves of his priest's robe, spilling onto the ground.
Then two aquatic creatures gradually rose from the two pools of water.
The aquatic creatures are composed of highly condensed divine water. Their liquid bodies gleam with a ghostly blue light in the dim tomb, their surfaces shimmering with pale gold patterns of ancient divine runes. Their outlines are initially humanoid, but they constantly flow and recombine, sometimes coalescing into sharply defined armor, and sometimes transforming into liquid tentacles that coil and swirl around them, as if they were living fluids endowed with self-awareness.
Azure Dragon Old Deng narrowed his eyes slightly: "Level 11 Divine Sorcerer..."
......
"Well......!"
"Knew it......"
"The closer you get to the Heart of Flame, the higher the temperature and intensity of the firestorm become."
Ye Ge gritted his teeth, thinking to himself, if his body hadn't already completely merged with the Demonic Flame, would anyone really be able to get through this kind of cultivation?
He could feel the demonic spiritual fire within his body constantly strengthening, absorbing the fluid flames that were continuously being squeezed and surged in from the outside!
The sacred soul within the body is also constantly absorbing this power.
It feels like it's about to burst!
Ye Ge saw his attribute panel rapidly increasing, but he also finally felt a strong sense of discomfort.
This discomfort was not only physical, but even more so a spiritual one! He could clearly feel his soul being frantically roasted and burned, and the torment of his soul was a hundred times more intense than the physical pain!
"Ughh ...
Night Song finally couldn't help but let out a low, hoarse roar.
Ye Ge thought he was usually a person who could endure pain very well.
But that kind of pain is something that no normal living being can endure.
It is a thousand times, ten thousand times more painful than any pain of childbirth, the pain of having your testicles burst, the pain of having your heart torn apart, or the pain of having your marrow ripped out and your bones eaten away!
Baihu's voice rang out again: "Kid, if you can't handle it, you'd better not force yourself."
“It’s alright…” Ye Ge gritted her teeth: “I know what I’m doing.”
"And at the current temperature, the Heart of Flame Spirit should be arriving soon."
"..."
Baihu fell silent and did not try to persuade him further.
“Actually, I’m more worried about Qinglong Laodeng.” Ye Ge frowned. “Speaking of which, what’s the situation on his end? He’s summoned the Holy Azure Dragon Blade back as well.”
The Sacred Azure Dragon Blade is the Azure Dragon's soul weapon.
Whenever He wishes to summon, He can summon the weapon back, no matter where He is.
“How would I know? I can only communicate with Him spiritually through you,” the White Tiger said.
Night Song's spiritual world is now equivalent to a communication bridge between the two sacred beasts. Both of them have tokens stored in Night Song's place, and Night Song's spiritual power is strong enough to bear the appearance of the two sacred spirits in his consciousness world.
Ye Ge suddenly had a bad feeling.
The underground palace of the imperial mausoleum was completely sealed off by the Temple of the Gods, and ordinary people could not even get close to it.
So, in this situation, only...
Five Elements Priest!
"Hey, Old Deng." Night Song tried to contact Azure Dragon again: "How's it going on your end? What's the situation?"
......
"boom--!!!"
It was accompanied by a loud explosion.
The underground palace began to tremble violently.
The mangled humanoid body of the Azure Dragon, wielding the Sacred Azure Dragon Blade, plummeted from the sky and crashed heavily to the ground, creating a large, spiderweb-like crater in the earth!
At this moment, the water on the ground of the eighth underground palace has gradually risen to a height of half a person.
This blow sent up a large splash of water.
But all these splashes of water floated still in the air, forming droplets the size of beans, hovering around Qinglong Laodeng.
Qinglong Laodeng stepped onto the water's surface and slowly stood up. His azure pupils stared at the water spirit priest before him, and he replied to Yege, "It seems there's a bit of trouble on my end."
