Chapter 2685: Die Before the Mission Is Accomplished!

Roar!

The blood dragon circled for a while before diving back into Ye Yuan's body.

Ye Yuan felt that his bloodline power had grown stronger than before.

"Heh heh, it seems that Young Friend Ye truly has a deep connection with this Dragon Slumber Land! Congratulations, Young Friend Ye, on advancing to the Unbounded Heavenly Position!"

The Black Flood Dragon King smiled warmly and sincerely, stepping forward to offer his congratulations.

If it had been before, Ye Yuan would have felt a bit more goodwill.

But now, his heart was filled with disgust.

However, this was clearly not the time to burn bridges, so Ye Yuan also smiled and said, "Thank you, Black Flood Dragon King."

The Black Flood Dragon King laughed and said, "This Dragon Slumber Land has been here for who knows how many years, and I've never heard of anyone being able to sense the call from within! Young Friend Ye, you truly surprise me! But I wonder, what kind of call did you sense?"

Ye Yuan shook his head and said, "I don't know either. I only felt a mysterious force."

Naturally, no one believed this.

In fact, it was indeed a lie.

It was indeed a mysterious force, but Ye Yuan felt that this mysterious force seemed to be calling him to enter.

It seemed... somewhat eager.

Of course, this was purely a feeling, and Ye Yuan didn't know if it was real or not.

It might even be a danger.

Ye Yuan had entered countless secret realms, so he naturally wouldn't naively think that this Dragon Slumber Land was his own backyard, free to come and go as he pleased.

Such secret realms often came with great danger.

But now, You Qing and the others had unusually grim expressions.

They were somewhat embarrassed.

Rumble...

Just then, the earth shook and the mountains swayed.

The seabed shook violently.

The entire sea area seemed to be in a cataclysm.

At that moment, the restriction before the cave collapsed with a bang.

A dragon's aura slowly flowed out from the cave.

"The opening of the Dragon Slumber Land has no pattern, but every time it opens, it triggers a tsunami! Now, large areas of land have already been submerged," the Black Flood Dragon King explained.

"Hehe, the Dragon Slumber Land seems like fun. I'll go in first!"

The Little Dragon Girl giggled and, before anyone could react, turned into a wisp of green smoke and darted into the cave.

The Black Flood Dragon King's expression changed, and he said in exasperation, "This girl is really too worrisome! The Dragon Slumber Land is full of dangers. Does she really think it's her own backyard? Young Friend Ye, please go in quickly. I entrust this girl to your care!"

Ye Yuan nodded slightly, then leaped into the Dragon Slumber Land.

You Qing and the others naturally didn't want to fall behind and followed suit.

...

Ye Yuan felt a blur before his eyes, as if he had arrived in another world.

The Dragon Slumber Land had no seawater, and the surrounding cliffs revealed a reddish-black color, giving an eerie feeling.

Ye Yuan looked around and found that the Little Dragon Girl had already disappeared, causing him to frown slightly.

This girl was too wild; keeping her in check would be quite troublesome!

But upon entering the Dragon Slumber Land, the mysterious call seemed even stronger.

It was as if someone was softly calling out to him incessantly.

"Come quickly. I've been waiting for you for a long time!"

This feeling was very mysterious.

Ye Yuan forcibly suppressed the urge to go deeper and took out a small conch.

It was a part of the Azure Sea Divine Conch!

Ye Yuan silently chanted a spell, and the small conch lit up and flew up.

The top priority was to find the Little Dragon Girl first.

As for the secrets of the Dragon Slumber Land, there was no rush.

But just then, several figures suddenly darted out and surrounded Ye Yuan.

If it wasn't You Qing and the others, who else could it be?

By his side were also three Jade Emperor Heaven powerhouses!

Beside them were Mu Chen and the others, who also had several Jade Emperor Heaven powerhouses following them.

Facing the crowd of sea clans, Ye Yuan instantly became a public enemy.

There were no fewer than ten Jade Emperor Heaven powerhouses present!

"Hey, kid, we meet again! Now that we're in the Dragon's Rest, I want to see how you can still be arrogant! You humiliated me that day, and today, I'll make you pay a hundred times over!" You Qing sneered.

Mu Chen also said smugly, "Kid, weren't you very cocky? Still cocky now? Come over here, kneel before me, and I might consider sparing your life!"

"Idiot!" Ye Yuan rolled his eyes.

Enraged, Mu Chen said coldly, "Get him! Capture this kid alive! I want him to experience what it means to wish he were dead!"

"Yes, Dragon Prince!"

The Jade Emperor Heaven powerhouses brought by Mu Chen immediately acknowledged, their bodies erupting with powerful force as they lunged at Ye Yuan.

Although Ye Yuan had broken through to the Boundless Heaven rank, facing so many Jade Emperor Heaven powerhouses at once was clearly beyond his reach.

However, he wasn't too concerned.

If he couldn't win, escaping was still no problem.

But just as he was about to activate his movement technique, a sudden change occurred.

A drop of crimson liquid fell abruptly from above the cavern, landing precisely on that Jade Emperor Heaven powerhouse.

"Ah!"

That Jade Emperor Heaven powerhouse let out a scream, and then his body rapidly shriveled.

In the blink of an eye, it was as if all the blood in his body had been drained, turning him into a mummy.

This eerie scene made everyone present's expressions change drastically.

That was a Jade Emperor Heaven powerhouse!

In the blink of an eye, he became a mummy!

What exactly was that strange liquid?

Ye Yuan's brow also furrowed.

This scene was too much of a coincidence.

That drop of liquid, neither off-center nor askew, landed precisely on the Yuhuangtian who was attacking him!

It seemed as if it had been prearranged.

Ye Yuan's heart jolted—could it be that mysterious force, protecting him?

What exactly did that fellow want by summoning him?

Ye Yuan suddenly felt as if he had fallen into a trap!

He understood that now, even if he wanted to withdraw, it was impossible.

Having entered the Dragon's Slumber Land, he had to follow the path set by that mysterious force!

However, startled as he was, Ye Yuan naturally did not show it.

He looked at Mu Chen, grinning with bared teeth: "You only brought this one Yuhuangtian, huh? Tsk tsk, is this what they call 'the army perishes before it can set out'? We've only just begun; I find it hard to imagine how you'll walk the road ahead alone."

The corner of Mu Chen's mouth twitched, his expression grim to the extreme.

He was not like You Qing, who could bring three Yuhuangtian for protection.

He had only brought one, and now it was dead.

How infuriating!

Just as Ye Yuan had said, the Dragon's Slumber Land was fraught with danger; relying on himself alone for the road ahead seemed a bit too weak.

At this moment, Ye Yuan turned to You Qing, half-smiling: "What, are you still planning to watch the show? Don't you want to kill me very much? Why don't you come?"

You Qing frowned slightly; he, too, felt it was too much of a coincidence!

Thus, he did not act rashly.

Now, he was being manipulated by Ye Yuan.

Suddenly, his expression darkened, and he said to the two Wuji Tianwei experts beside him: "All three of you, attack together!"

"Yes!" The three, unaware of the situation, responded and charged forward.

But just as they lunged at Ye Yuan, three drops of liquid accurately struck them.

Three more men down!

Everyone present changed expression drastically!
