Chapter 371

"That is the rule. 'Chieftain!'"

Seeing it was Long Wuyi, the guard greeted him respectfully.

Then—

After also spotting the chieftain's trusted aides and his daughter,

he relaxed.

"We need to go inside the sacred altar to take a look!" Long Wuyi waved his hand.

He said to the guard, "Understood, my lord!"

"We'll prepare it for you right away!"

The guard led the group into another enormous cavern.

Here—

Everything needed for the worship ritual had been prepared.

At the same time—

They also needed to bathe and change clothes.

After waiting until they were properly tidied up,

the few of them, faces full of devotion, followed the guard toward that enormous altar.

Calling it an altar—

it was built in tier upon tier,

much like a thousand-layer pagoda.

But—

on closer look—

it seemed to be a strange water tower.

At this moment—

Gurgle—

Gurgle—

thin streams of water came from within the water tower.

This was their holy water.

This was the source from which their water supply sprang.

Relying on this flow of water, they had survived in a single region.

They took out a few strange plants.

Then they began to worship before the water tower.

Those few strange plants looked much like foxtail grass.

They were stuck into the soil beneath the water tower.

And in an instant they burst forth with the most beautiful green.

Then they gave off a rich fragrance.

Much like sandalwood.

Long Wuyi, Long Ying, He Wu, and Lin Xiaoling—the four of them—worshipped devoutly.

Meanwhile—

the guard had long been standing watch outside.

Keeping a wary eye on the surroundings.

After performing the worship three times in this manner,

Long Wuyi and the others rose.

Then—

they walked toward a wall on the opposite side.

Rumble—

That wall actually opened.

There was actually a mechanism inside.

A massive passage led off to who-knew-where.

The few of them walked in with solemn faces.

Then—

Drip—

Drip—

the sound of flowing water came.

Not long after—

a vast space, like a paradise on earth, appeared before them.

The surroundings were open and empty—

resplendent buildings were everywhere.

In the center, there seemed to be a small pool with a mountain-and-flowing-water arrangement.

But—

this enormous space contained not a single plant.

The dripping water was merely droplets condensed from some kind of vapor.

On the mountain wall of this space!

Countless murals were carved.

They depicted a beautiful world within.

A mysterious figure, whose face could not be seen.

Was riding a giant dragon that radiated wind, rain, and Lei Ting.

Leading a crowd of people.

And that giant dragon was strikingly nine parts similar to the Nine Heavens Wind Rain Dragon.

The difference was that the divine dragon on the mountain wall had nine pairs of wings.

While the Nine Heavens Wind Rain Dragon had only one pair.

"Look carefully — is that wind-rain dragon the same as the one before your eyes!"

After respectfully bowing three times.

Long Wuyi pointed at the mural on the mountain wall and asked.

"That's right!"

"Exactly the same, only it has just one pair of wings!"

After looking it over several times more.

Long Ying, He Wu, and Lin Xiaoling, the three of them, nodded.

"Hiss!"

Hearing the words of the few people.

Long Wuyi took a deep breath.

"Then that's it!"

"Nine pairs of wings — that is the final form of the Wind Rain Divine Dragon!" Long Wuyi's eyes held deep shock and boundless excitement. "Ying'er, there is one thing below that I need you all to do!" "You must bring back the Great Sage of the Desert!" Long Wuyi said solemnly. The next moment!

He walked to a certain spot.

And pressed a switch.

Immediately!

Rumble rumble rumble!

The enormous statue in the middle opened up.

A strange pearl wreathed in Lei Ting appeared before everyone's eyes.

At the moment that pearl appeared!

Immediately!

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
