Chapter 717
717 The Dreamland (1)
At this moment, the eel monster seemed to have opened up a Chatterbox, and it spoke endlessly.
“To tell you the truth, I’ve been living in the grassland that you’re going to go to since I was a child, and I often meet that old monster.
You don’t know how annoying he is. He always tells us some nonsense, and we’re getting calluses from listening to him.
That feeling, thinking about it now, made people tremble all over!
I couldn’t take it anymore, so I ran out of the grassland. I was only Level 1 at that time, and I was almost eaten by other water monsters!
In the end, after so many years, my body has grown bigger and bigger. I wanted to go back and listen to him, but I can’t do it anymore!”
The eel monster’s tone immediately turned gloomy when it said this. Tang Zhen did not know if it was an illusion, but he actually felt a trace of sadness from its mental energy.
It was rare for monsters to have emotions and be sentimental.
From Tang Zhen’s point of view, this eel monster was more like a living human and not a cold-blooded and malevolent monster. It had merely entered the wrong body.
The reason for such a strange situation must be related to that “old monster”!
Tang Zhen was also extremely interested in the old monster that the eel monster had mentioned. He secretly guessed the other party’s identity as a glint flashed across his eyes.
The monster’s path of advancement was far crueler and harsher than the cultivators of the hundred races in Lou Cheng. Other than the bloodline, other external forces were also indispensable.
To be able to gain enlightenment from an ordinary monster and allow it to grow to its current level, this ‘old monster’ was clearly no ordinary person!
Perhaps he was the wise man in Harrell’s prophecy. He was a special existence that could help Tang Zhen solve the mystery and live for an unknown number of years!
This eel monster was definitely the king of this water area, so it went straight to the crack in the mountain without any obstacles.
Not long after, Tang Zhen saw a tall cliff that seemed to have been cut by knives and axes. Its entire body was slippery and covered with emerald green moss.
In the area near the bottom of the cliff, there was a huge type of aquatic grass that looked like bamboo, with strings of pale yellow flowers that looked like bells.
Under the clear water surface, many big fat fish were swimming around, fighting to eat the roots of this aquatic plant, making crisp “ka Cha””ka Cha” sounds.
With the arrival of the eel monster, the big fish immediately scattered and disappeared without a trace.
Half of the eel monster’s head was revealed. It looked at the water grass in front of it that was so dense that not even the wind could pass through. It said to Tang Zhen, the entrance to the grassland is just behind the water grass. You can just go in directly!
Tang Zhen gently nodded his head. He jumped down from the head of the eel monster and landed on the wide leaves of the seaweed in an incomparably light manner.
“Many thanks for sending me off!”
Waving his hand at the eel monster, Tang Zhen’s figure crossed the grass and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
The eel monster stared in the direction that Tang Zhen had disappeared in for a moment before shaking its head and mumbling to itself.
the old monster said that a King level cultivator would come to find him many years later. He even asked me to bring that cultivator here. It seems that it should be this guy!
At this point, the figure of the old monster suddenly appeared in the mind of the eel monster. Its huge body suddenly trembled and it quickly dived into the water, sneaked back to its cave and hid.
It had already made up its mind to find a way to avoid that terrifying cultivator. At least, before it felt safe, it would never swim out of the cave!
Tang Zhen, who was extremely afraid of the eel monster, was currently standing in front of a deep cave that was about two meters tall.
A stream of clear water glowed with a silver light. It was flowing out of the hole in the mountain and into the boundless Lake behind him.
The water current was very shallow and had just reached his knees. After Tang Zhen swept a glance and confirmed that there was no problem, he stepped in.
After entering the cave, Tang Zhen discovered that the interior of the cave was actually very wide. There were countless shimmering mushrooms on the stone walls on both sides, as well as all kinds of insects.
The fluorescent light they emitted illuminated the cave, and with the Silver River water, it made the place look hazy and exquisite.
Tang Zhen’s arrival seemed to have disturbed them. A group of small fluorescent fish in the river immediately swam against the current. They were like a swimming band of light that pointed out the path for him to advance.
Tang Zhen slowly walked forward in the stream. As he walked, he would observe the beautiful scenery in the cave. Unknowingly, he had already walked a few kilometers.
After passing through a corner, Tang Zhen suddenly felt that the area in front of him had suddenly opened up. Soon after, an enormous exit that was tens of meters tall was reflected in his eyes.
Looking out from the exit, a silver ribbon-like River could be seen winding across the soft carpet-like grassland. It was a beautiful sight.
Around this River, there were giant flowers about ten meters tall. They were bright purple and red, and their fragrance assailed the nose. One breath of it could refresh one’s heart.
One-meter-tall fairy-like creatures were flapping their colorful wings and shuttling between the flowers, letting out crisp laughter from time to time.
In addition to these elves, there were also a few colorful and lovely creatures on the grass. They were wandering around carefreely and seemed to be at ease.
Tang Zhen quietly watched the scene before him. He suddenly felt as though he had entered a fairy tale world. It was as though this place was a true paradise.
Originally, he had thought that the scenery of the elven garden was already quite good, but compared to the scene in front of him, it was simply a hundred thousand miles apart!
How could such a paradise be created?
Tang Zhen glanced at the two white dragonbirds that flew past in the sky. He discovered that the sky here was a little special. After taking a closer look, he discovered that it was actually an incomparably huge transparent barrier that completely covered this entire grassland.
No wonder the grassland couldn’t be detected from the sky. Perhaps the barrier was something like a one-way glass, and the scenery inside couldn’t be seen from the outside. It could even simulate the shape of mountains and rivers to confuse the creatures in the building world that got close to it.
As for whether there were other methods to avoid detection, Tang Zhen was temporarily unable to determine.
Taking a deep breath, Tang Zhen slowly walked out of the hole and stepped on the soft green grass that was like a carpet.
However, he did not continue forward. Instead, he looked at the empty space in front of him as if he was sizing something up.
About half a minute later, a faint figure condensed out of thin air, forming the image of a woman in a light yellow dress.
The woman looked very similar to the flower elves. She also had a pair of rainbow-colored wings on her back. The only difference was that she was 1.7 meters tall and her body was made of pure energy!
Although she appeared to be a little illusionary, her cultivation was already not inferior to Tang Zhen. In fact, it was even slightly higher.
Tang Zhen did not dare to lower his guard in the slightest when facing such an expert.
Although he had a guess that the woman in front of him was the energy incarnation of some King-tier monster, he still didn’t dare to use the [ monster detector ] to detect her, in case it angered her.
The only thing that caused Tang Zhen to feel at ease was that this woman’s body was emitting an extremely peaceful and natural aura. Moreover, she gave off a frighteningly clean feeling. One would feel extremely close to her with a single glance.
At this moment, the yellow-dressed woman was using her bright eyes to look at Tang Zhen. After carefully sizing him up for a while, she finally revealed a smile and softly laughed. It was as melodious as a silver bell and like the sound of nature that could calm one’s mind.
