Chapter 680 The Locked-Up Savage
She thought of the mud worm that had escaped while wearing a black dragon's skin.
That big guy must have been here for quite a long time and should have a considerable understanding of this place.
This time, we absolutely cannot let it escape again.
"Big White, can you help me catch that mud worm?"
Animals that can escape are the most difficult to deal with; they can get away without you even noticing, making them extremely hard to catch.
Perhaps Big White, who is also a space-related character, can offer a solution.
Big White appeared in her arms, squeaking and its fur standing on end.
It's utterly despicable to send such a pure white sacred beast to deal with a bedbug in a stinking ditch.
"One hundred drops of the Ten-Thousand-Year Spirit Milk." Zhong Ran's voice was very soft.
"Squeak, squeak." Big White squealed twice more, then disappeared in a flash.
Zhong Ran felt much relieved and activated the Dark Source Pearl to first envelop herself and Mu Jinning.
She wanted to burn all the bats inside with fire first.
But I was also afraid of disturbing the mud worms, or other deeper things.
So, let's sneak in and take a look first before we talk about it.
The two used dark elements to envelop themselves inside, and the swarm of bats did not sense their presence, allowing them to reach the edge of the pool without difficulty.
"Squeak."
Big White suddenly appeared out of nowhere and jumped into her arms, squeaking with its little paws towards the bottom of the pool.
“They’ve bound them, they’ve bound them! Arrest them! Remember the fragrant, ten-thousand-year-old spiritual milk.”
The little one hadn't forgotten her promise of one hundred drops of the Eternal Spirit Milk.
It had taken all the ancient spiritual milk from the little nest, and it also had some for itself.
But no matter how much of his own agenda he has, it's not as much as Zhong Ran's.
She collected all the millennia-old spiritual milk, as well as beads, and many, many more.
Zhong Ran smiled gently and gave it a hundred drops of the Ten Thousand Year Spirit Milk.
Mu Jinning stood by the pool, her spiritual energy forming a large hand that reached down into the water.
The enormous black dragon... no, the mud worm wearing the black dragon's skin was captured.
It was truly bound, like a dead, stiff bug, unable to move.
But its eyes were wide open, and a look of fear flashed in them.
"Ranran, take it out first, and we'll deal with it later."
He handed the large mud worm to Zhong Ran and asked her to put it away first.
Zhong Ran sprayed a curtain of water, first washing the big stink bug clean.
Only then did she put it into her spatial storage.
Space creatures are extremely rare; even a mud worm is of great value.
Even if they themselves don't want it, with so many relatives and friends around them, there must be some who would.
Furthermore, this mud worm has been here for who knows how many years, and it should know many of the secrets here.
Another one, as a space-type insect, it must have collected many treasures, right?
Anyway, just take it out first.
After collecting the mud worms, she and Mu Jinning exchanged a glance and looked into the depths of the room.
The presence of living people is still deeper inside, and the bats there are the most numerous and the largest.
Could it be that these bats are all controlled by that person?
They didn't directly probe in with their divine sense, since such powerful beings are extremely sensitive.
It's best to be cautious before you know the other person's background.
The two walked slowly inside, still using dark spiritual energy to disguise themselves.
It was already extremely dark inside, and the dark spiritual energy was also black, so even the swarm of bats didn't notice the two intruders in their home.
The further in you go, the larger the space becomes, and there seem to be quite a few stone chambers. The cave walls are covered with bats.
Moreover, the bats inside are many times larger than those outside, making them particularly frightening to look at.
These bats were also very powerful, emanating a sense of pressure. Although it had no effect on Zhong Ran and the other person, they could still sense it.
This is definitely the bats' nest.
Deep inside, they sensed living people.
The two stopped at the same time, and then slowly walked inside.
There was a savage at the very end.
His hair was disheveled, his face was gaunt, and his breath was intermittent, but it was certain that he was not dead.
His limbs were chained, and the chains emanated a chilling aura.
It's a miracle that a living person could survive being chained to such cold stone chains for so many years.
His hair was long, spread out on the ground like withered grass, and emitted a foul stench.
There seemed to be some array patterns drawn on the ground, but most of them were covered by the wild man's hair, so they were not very clear.
She slowly dissipated the black mist from her body, and at the same time, several flames shot out, spreading outwards from within.
"Squeak."
The terrifying flames quickly engulfed the swarm of bats, emitting a piercing sound.
Perhaps because of the piercing sounds, or perhaps because of the intense heat of the flames, the person who was locked up slowly woke up.
He looked up and saw a young couple standing not far away, and he shifted his body slightly.
His movement made the chilling aura emanating from the stone chains even more pronounced.
"Someone actually managed to get this far."
The other person's voice was extremely hoarse, like the sound of a duck being squeezed by the neck, or like ventriloquism.
I didn't see the other person's mouth move.
Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that his mouth had been sewn shut with special thread.
His eyelids were also sewn up, and he could only breathe through his nostrils, but his ears were fine.
"Who are you, senior? And why are you here?"
Mu Jinning spoke softly, "This person must be a strong person, otherwise he wouldn't be treated like this."
Ordinary people would just be killed directly, why would they need to do this?
Only those unkillable powerhouses are locked up like this, their life force slowly drained away.
The old man didn't speak, but both of them could sense a divine sense observing them.
"Huh? Both of them have special physiques? And someone has even activated the Chaos Divine Body?"
The old man's voice was still hoarse, but you could hear the curiosity in it.
"The Tree of Life has appeared too? What? Has the world recovered?"
"Two geniuses in formations? That's truly rare."
Zhong Ran and Mu Jinning exchanged a glance. Just who was this old man?
He actually sensed their physiques instantly, knew they possessed the Tree of Life, and even recognized them as geniuses in formations?
He is indeed a senior of extraordinary status.
"Senior is seriously injured, and there is also a formation suppressing you within your body."
Zhong Ran activated her Eye of Illusion, glanced at it, and then withdrew it. It wasn't right to pry into other people's privacy like that.
"Senior must also be a master of formations, right? Many of the formations in this forest were set up by you, senior?"
This was just her guess; she had that feeling for no reason.
The old man cackled, his voice even more unpleasant.
But both of them could hear the sorrow and resentment in his voice.
Many years have passed, yet he remains so resentful, which shows how deeply this matter has affected him.
Because of the old man's laughter, the four iron chains made a sound, and the chill intensified. Something seemed different in the dark cave.
