Seeing such a huge surprise, Yan Xiaobao was even more supportive; his support was so much that he eventually crashed into the wall opposite. When he looked around, he noticed a small path next to the eye, not far from where he stood. Determined to see where it led, he headed towards it. Along this path, he noticed that the wall on one side was made not of stone like the other walls, but of sky-blue scales, one scale following another. As Yan Xiaobao walked along the path, his hand brushed against the sky-blue scales on the wall, causing his heart to flutter and his breathing to beco unstable.
Had he found the body of the Sky Dragon?
Lan Feng was completely silent, but not because he had nothing to say. Yan Xiaobao could feel a strange shift in the bird’s spirit. There was both reverence and a profound sadness directed at the crystalline beast in front of them.
The room was not lit, the only light coming from the light stone in the young man’s hands. The soft white glow fell upon the stone where Yan Xiaobao stood. The closer he got to what looked like a sapphire creature, the more the movents and emotions displayed by Blue Phoenix strengthened his belief that this was indeed the Blue Dragon.
What he saw before him was an enormous eye. A cat-like eye, but far larger than anything Yan Xiaobao had seen before. Its entire body seed to stretch on endlessly, and he finally recalled the words Lan Feng had once said to him.
"The four Divine Beasts made their bodies the foundation of the four kingdoms," the body he saw was certainly long enough to match the kingdom’s length!
The Sun Kingdom alone was forty-three thousand kiloters long, and the size of the eye alone was evidence of the incredible authenticity of this beast.
"Lan Feng," Yan Xiaobao called out silently to the Phoenix, sensing how shocked the bird was upon seeing this.
"Yes. I’m fine," ca the reply after a mont of silence, "I had no idea the Dragon Army could enter the body of the Ancestor."
As Yan Xiaobao walked further into the path, both bird and human remained silent for a ti. The scales extended well beyond him, until he finally reached a section where the scales had been removed and the interior flesh was visible.
Seeing this, Yan Xiaobao frowned slightly. Even Lan Feng felt uncomfortable seeing this and wondered why anyone would harm the Ancestor.
"It might have been a mistake when they built this tunnel," Yan Xiaobao optimistically suggested, though deep inside a worry began to stir.
"No," Lan Feng instantly heightened his worry tenfold, "the scale is too difficult to be destroyed by humans."
"They must have found a way to do it sohow," Yan Xiaobao continued, but even he knew that only a handful of people in the world had enough power to cause such damage. One would have to be like God himself, or an expert from the Emperor.
"Do you think it’s him?" Yan Xiaobao quietly asked, "The one we need to fight?"
It had been a long ti since Yan Xiaobao and Lan Feng had talked about the one who had put the Phoenix in his current state.
A sigh could be heard deep within the Dantian Cave, "What was done." Phoenix said, without much concern this ti, "It might even help us." he continued.
"Bring Deng Wu and Little Dragon here tomorrow. I have a way to get him out of his statue. He’d better thank ," Lan Feng said. Yan Xiaobao felt full of hope upon hearing this news. If Little Dragon indeed beca like Lan Feng, then the group might gain another expert.
Turning around, Yan Xiaobao began rushing back up the stairs leading to the Dragon Army Headquarters. Climbing the stairs again took quite a bit of ti, however, it was much faster than his descent since he knew where he was headed.
As he erged, he saw that the day had co to an end. Moonlight fell upon the buildings, and Yan Xiaobao dashed towards the building where his friends were.
Entering the house, Yan Xiaobao walked towards the room where Deng Wu and the others were. All were laughing while drinking wine and eating food. Seeing this, Yan Xiaobao couldn’t help but laugh out loud. While they were enjoying their ti, he had been running around.
"Alright, alright, alright, what do we have here?" he asked in a cheerful voice as a bottle of wine was tossed in his direction, which he caught in the air and took a big swig from.
"Sorry to break up your party, but I need Deng Wu to co with ." His face quickly turned serious, and Deng Wu imdiately stood up, ensuring he had a storage stone that contained the sky-blue Dragon Statue.
"We might be back in a few days, maybe," Yan Xiaobao said as he dragged Deng Wu with him, rushing back to the stairs leading to the body of the Sky Blue Dragon.
Descending the long staircase, Deng Wu was completely unaware of what was happening. Whenever he asked Yan Xiaobao, the white-haired young man would only say he didn’t know what was happening; Lan Feng had told him to pick up Deng Wu and the sky-blue Dragon Statue.
Yan Xiaobao didn’t even know what the plan was exactly, even if he wanted to tell Deng Wu what was happening, it would be impossible. He couldn’t explain anything because Lan Feng refused to comnt on the matter. The bird seed to be busy with cultivation.
When they finally entered the room, Deng Wu was also stunned by the room’s vastness. However, when he saw the enormous eye before him, his eyes turned in surprise.
Deng Wu stared at the eye before him, his heart beating irregularly just like Yan Xiaobao’s had earlier that day. The sheer size of the eye itself was so astonishing that it was easy to believe the body was really as large as the kingdom above it.
