Chapter 310: Tracking

~7 min read 1,349 words

"I want to follow that black snake and take a look." As soon as Cheng Feng's voice fell, the air seemed to freeze for an instant. Upon hearing this, Su Qiang and Wei Zhuang's expressions changed abruptly, their eyes filled with astonishment and worry.

Su Qiang hurriedly stepped forward, grabbed Cheng Feng's arm, and said urgently, "Brother, are you crazy? That is a flood dragon, a legendary existence with infinite power. How could we possibly keep up with it, let alone get close to it!" His voice carried a hint of trembling; clearly, he was badly frightened by Cheng Feng's decision.

Wei Zhuang followed closely behind, his tone firm and serious: "Cheng Feng, I understand your curiosity, but this is no child's play. The appearance of a flood dragon is often accompanied by huge disasters. We can barely protect ourselves, let alone track it? This is too dangerous!"

Cheng Feng looked at their worried eyes, and a warm current surged in his heart. He knew well how crazy his decision sounded,

but having lived two lives, he had to do this. Because he wanted to know what the high-end existences of this world were like.

Or rather, whether there were legendary existences; this would determine how he would walk his path in the future.

His Panmian only needed an entry-level start to improve, and a giant snake like the flood dragon was no longer something a Martial Artist could deal with.

Cheng Feng needed information.

In mythology, there is immortality!!!

Cheng Feng gently patted Su Qiang's hand to show comfort, then said firmly: "I know this is dangerous, but I must do it. I have a feeling that the appearance of this flood dragon is very important to me."

"I want to know the truth, for the sake of our future."

Su Qiang and Wei Zhuang looked at each other, seeing the same struggle and helplessness in the other's eyes. They knew that once Cheng Feng made up his mind, it was hard to change.

Finally, Su Qiang sighed and said helplessly: "Alright, since you've decided, we will go with you. But you must promise us that you will act with caution and put safety first."

Wei Zhuang also nodded in agreement. The three looked at each other, their eyes flashing with firm light.

Cheng Feng did not act coy; in this situation, companions indeed needed to support each other.

It was just that the flood was raging outside at the moment, so it was not suitable to bring out the Mechanical Dog, otherwise, there would have been one more means of reconnaissance.

Cheng Feng nodded and said seriously: "Rest assured, I value my life very much."

Cheng Feng's words made Su Qiang and Wei Zhuang feel a little more at ease.

Cheng Feng analyzed the situation seriously and proposed a relatively safe plan: "We will just follow it from a distance; there is no need to get close."

"If the legends are true, the flood dragon will inevitably flow downstream and merge into the great rivers. Therefore, our direction is very clear; as long as we don't lose track of it, it will be fine."

"If the legend is false and the giant snake is not traveling like this, then we will run immediately without hesitation."

Su Qiang and Wei Zhuang nodded in agreement. Although they still had doubts in their hearts, Cheng Feng's calm analysis made them feel that, at least, this plan was feasible.

Wei Zhuang added: "Furthermore, the flooding also has regions. As long as we maintain a sufficient distance, we should be able to avoid most of the danger."

Regarding logistics, Wei Zhuang looked at Cheng Feng, a flash of trust in his eyes. He knew that Cheng Feng possessed a Space Ring; this magical treasure capable of storing items was undoubtedly a huge advantage in an adventure.

With it, they did not need to worry about survival necessities like food and water, and could focus more on tracking the flood dragon and dealing with potential dangers.

Thus, the three confirmed each other's eyes again, as if reaching a silent tacit understanding.

As the sound of the raging flood gradually diminished and the water surface tended toward calm, the three Bone Refining Martial Artists—Cheng Feng, Su Qiang, and Wei Zhuang—were once again ready to set off. They mounted their respective sturdy horses, and the sound of hooves echoed in the morning air, appearing exceptionally powerful.

"Let's go, partners!" At Cheng Feng's command, the three whipped their horses simultaneously and galloped in the direction the flood dragon might be heading. Their goal was not only to track the mysterious flood dragon but also to uncover the secrets hidden in this world.

Cheng Feng now felt that he was just a mortal, like a mortal who knew a bit of martial arts in the myths of his previous life.

Originally, Cheng Feng had thought that since he could transmigrate and even came with a Panmian, there was still a trace of arrogance in the bottom of his heart.

The appearance of the flood dragon made Cheng Feng feel that the things he had come into contact with were still too few.

Along the way, they carefully avoided the impact of the raging flood, tracking the traces left by the flood dragon, and using their keen perception as Bone Refining Martial Artists and their superb martial arts to ensure they safely crossed those seemingly calm but dangerous waters.

At the same time, they also kept a constant watch on the changes in the surrounding environment to prevent accidents.

Along the way, they saw many houses destroyed by the flood, with people struggling to survive.

Some helped each other to save themselves, while others tore at each other to cling to life.

Some wailed loudly after surviving the disaster, while others were incredibly lucky to be safe.

The three of Cheng Feng were just passersby; naturally, they did not think that the three of them alone could turn the tide.

With their hearts set only on following the trail of the flood, according to the direction, Cheng Feng's guess was correct.

The black snake flood dragon was indeed heading all the way south.

The three had sufficient food and drink along the way. Except for letting the horses rest, the three ran and attacked all the way, running for a day and a night without sleep or rest toward the direction of merging into the great river.

Finally, at the edge of a desolate body of water, the three saw the shadow of that black snake from afar. Its massive body appeared and disappeared in the water, like a black giant dragon, swimming slowly in the aftermath of the flood.

Cheng Feng, Su Qiang, and Wei Zhuang immediately tightened their reins to make the horses stop. They held their breath and tried their best to keep their bodies still, fearing that any tiny movement would disturb this mysterious flood dragon.

The three exchanged a look; there was no need for words, they all knew the tension and importance of this moment. They stared fixedly at the black snake, fearing they would lose it, but at the same time kept a sufficient distance to ensure their own safety.

The power of this flood dragon was far beyond their imagination; once it was angered, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Just like this, the three quietly followed the trail of the black snake, crossing fields and forests submerged by the flood. They sometimes hid in the grass, sometimes used trees as cover, and moved forward cautiously.

Although the journey was arduous, they felt incomparably excited and thrilled, because they knew they were approaching a huge secret, a secret that might change their destiny.

As time passed, the black snake gradually swam toward wider waters. The three also accelerated, but always maintained caution and vigilance.

But Cheng Feng felt a bit discouraged looking at the direction the giant snake was swimming; if the river went any further, it would truly enter the great river.

Could it be that he had guessed wrong???
