In the forest, Hu Xiao and Xue He ran all the way. After jumping over a small stream, they realized that the giant beasts that were chasing them suddenly stopped.
"These giant beasts stopped." Xue He was a little surprised, "Are they afraid of water?"
After saying that, Xue He shook his head and denied this idea. If these giant beasts were afraid of water, they wouldn't have attacked him who was beside the stream. Even if these giant beasts were afraid of water, the water in the stream wouldn't be able to stop these giant beasts.
"This should be a boundary."
Hu Xiao guessed, "When we leave this boundary, these giant beasts won't chase us anymore."
Xue He was a little surprised when he heard that. After thinking for a while, he replied, "It seems to be the case. When we ran away, we chose to go back the way we came and didn't run inside. These giant beasts were also purposely driving us in this direction."
"If that's the case, we should have entered their territory just now. That's why we were attacked."
Hu Xiao frowned and said, "But the center of Dragon Valley is obviously in front of us. We are getting further and further away from the center of Dragon Valley."
Hearing Hu Xiao's words, Xue He's face couldn't help but become a little ugly. If they couldn't go to the center of Dragon Valley, then wouldn't they have come here for nothing?
"I don't know how Qinchuan is now. He can't be so lucky that he was directly teleported to the dragon head." Xue He clenched his teeth and said, "Even if we have to take a detour, I have to go to the dragon head!"
Hu Xiao glanced at Xue He and said lightly, "Who told you that the center of Dragon Valley is at the dragon head? The center should be at the dragon heart."
Xue He looked at Hu Xiao with a little surprise and asked, "Are you sure?"
"For the dragon race, the most important thing is naturally the dragon heart. Don't you know this?" Hu Xiao looked at Xue He with a little confusion, "Aren't you well-read and knowledgeable?
You don't even know this? "
Xue He's face changed slightly when he heard that. Then, he forced a smile and explained, "I just forgot in a moment of desperation."
Seeing the forced smile on Xue He's face, Hu Xiao only thought that Xue He felt a little embarrassed because he felt embarrassed. He didn't think too much about it.
Dong dong dong.
At this moment, the giant beasts seemed to have confirmed that Xue He and Hu Xiao had no intention of coming over, so they turned around and slowly retreated.
Seeing the behemoths leave, Xue He asked Hu Xiao, "Is there any way to avoid these behemoths and enter?"
Hu Xiao thought for a moment and said to Xue He, "I should be the one asking you this question. You are the heir of the Fox King Tribe and a master of illusions."
Xue He was stunned for a moment and asked, "You want me to confuse these giant beasts with illusions?"
"This is a feasible method." Hu Xiao nodded. "But I don't think you will help me."
Xue He glanced at Hu Xiao and nodded. "Indeed, I won't help you. If you don't take the initiative to say it, I might betray you when we enter. That way, we will have one less competitor."
Xue He's honest answer made Hu Xiao think highly of him, but that was it.
"Since that's the case, let's part ways here. The road ahead will depend on our own abilities."
Hu Xiao said to Xue He, "Although you probably won't be able to advance to the finals, I don't want you to die here."
"I'll return the same words to you."
Xue He took a deep look at Hu Xiao, then turned around and hid in the forest.
Hu Xiao also turned around and left. The two who were running for their lives together just a moment ago went their separate ways.
… …
Just when Xue He and Hu Xiao were thinking of a way to get past the giant beasts and enter the center of Dragon Valley, Qinchuan was sitting on the giant beast's back with a satisfied expression. He was leisurely enjoying the scenery in Dragon Valley. Occasionally, when he encountered some precious elixirs, he would ask the giant beast to stop and pluck the elixirs for fun. After one or two times, the giant beast would automatically stop when it passed by a place with elixirs and wait for Qinchuan to pluck the elixirs before continuing on its way. It was simply too satisfying.
Along the way, Qinchuan also encountered a lot of giant beast groups. These giant beast groups also wanted to follow Qinchuan, but they were all rejected by Qinchuan. He didn't want to make too much of a commotion, these dozen of giant beasts were enough.
Originally, Qinchuan thought that Dragon Valley didn't have night, but the night quietly descended and shrouded the entire Dragon Valley.
When night came, Qinchuan decided not to continue on his journey and prepared to rest on the spot. The giant beasts that had been running around for a whole day also looked extremely tired. However, they didn't immediately rest. Instead, they divided into three groups. One group went to look for food, one group rested, and the last group was responsible for guarding Qinchuan's side during the night.
Qinchuan was a little surprised when he saw the giant beasts' spontaneous actions. He had never given such an order to the giant beasts before. At this moment, everything that the giant beasts did was spontaneous.
"These giant beasts should have done this kind of thing often in the past, so it became a habit."
Qinchuan looked at these giant beasts with a subtle expression, and muttered in a low voice, "But it's said that there hasn't been a true dragon in Dragon Valley for nearly ten thousand years. These giant beasts shouldn't be those giant beasts from back then. They should be the descendants of those giant beasts. If that's the case, then how did they develop such a habit?
Could it be that they rely on the inheritance in their bloodline? "
After thinking for a while, Qinchuan couldn't think of a suitable answer. He might as well not think about it anymore. He quietly leaned against the big tree and prepared to sleep.
Roar!
Just when Qinchuan just closed his eyes, an extremely loud dragon roar suddenly rang in his ears. He subconsciously opened his eyes and looked around, but he didn't see anything. The giant beasts were also the same as before, there was nothing special.
Seeing this scene, Qinchuan couldn't help but frown, and said in a low voice, "Could it be that I'm hallucinating?"
With this thought, Qinchuan once again leaned against the tree trunk and closed his eyes. And this time, the loud dragon roar sounded again!
Qinchuan suddenly opened his eyes and looked around, and then looked at the sky. Everything was the same as before he closed his eyes. Nothing had changed, but he was sure that the dragon roar he heard just now was definitely not an illusion. It really existed!
"How could this be?" Qinchuan frowned, "Why did I hear the dragon roar after I closed my eyes?"
Qinchuan couldn't figure it out. He tried to close his eyes again. As expected, the dragon roar sounded again. This time, Qinchuan didn't open his eyes immediately, but wanted to see what would happen next.
This time, it wasn't only the dragon roar that appeared, there was also a giant dragon that covered the sky!
