"The location of the Muchen Pearl is very dangerous. I can't tell you now, lest you go and die.”Chen Cang said seriously.
Shirley Yang frowned." I'm not afraid of death. I must find the pearl."”
"Then I can't tell you.”Chen Cang said calmly.
Shirley Yang suppressed the excitement in her heart and said calmly,"Chen Cang, as long as you tell me the whereabouts of the Muchen Pearl, I can give you anything you want!”
"No."
Chen Cang rolled his eyes." I told you that it's very dangerous there. If you go there now, you'll definitely die."”
"However, I can promise you that as long as I have enough confidence, I will take you to find the Muchen Pearl.”
Shirley Yang heaved a sigh of relief.
At least Chen Cang had already relented and agreed to take her to find the Mu Chen Pearl.
"How long will it take?"
Shirley Yang looked at him nervously.
Decades later, she would have died long ago.
The blood of those cursed by the Ghost Cave would turn golden, causing them to suffocate to death. They would be in great pain and would not live past fifty years old!
She had seen her grandfather pass away with her own eyes.
That scene was still vivid in his mind.
"Five years later, one or two years faster.”
? Chen Cang thought about it. Five years later, with his strength, he wouldn't need to be afraid of Insect Valley anymore.
After all, he was a cheating man!
Shirley Yang heaved a sigh of relief. Five years?
That should be acceptable.
At this moment, the number of Desert Army Ants on the ground had already increased.
They discovered the intruders and emerged from all corners of the wall. Moreover, they continuously gathered and surrounded Chen Cang and the other two.
"Not good, Chen Cang, what should we do now?”
Shirley Yang's expression changed slightly when she saw the army ants gathering. These army ants were no joke.
They were not even afraid of lions or tigers.
Even the king of all beasts had to avoid the huge number of desert army ants.
Shirley Yang didn't realize that she had unknowingly regarded Chen Cang as her backbone.
Chen Cang looked at the hole above him.
Sand was continuously filling up the hole. It seemed that it was impossible to get out of the hole.
This place was at least tens of meters away from the ground.
If they wanted to get out, they would have to find another way out.
As for these Desert Army Ants, Chen Cang did not care. After all, they were just some ants.
"Don't worry, I have a way."
Chen Cang consoled Shirley Yang, then took out the Azure Dragon Token from his pocket. He infused True Qi into it, and immediately, a wave of desolate aura emitted from the Azure Dragon Token.
Azure Dragon's pressure!
This was a new function unlocked by the ancestor of the Chen family after he absorbed a large amount of the Candle Dragon's remnant thought.
For a moment, the surrounding Desert Army Ants seemed to have seen their natural enemy. They frantically drilled into the wall and did not dare to appear again.
"What is this?"
Shirley Yang said in surprise. When Chen Cang activated the Azure Dragon Token, she seemed to have seen a true dragon soaring in the clouds.
The dragon roamed the eight wastelands and deterred the four seas!
Then, the surrounding desert army ants fled one after another.
What kind of treasure was this?
"This is my family's heirloom!" Chen Cang chuckled and then kept the Azure Dragon Token into his bosom.
Seeing that Chen Cang had no intention of explaining, Shirley Yang pouted slightly and did not continue asking.
"Then how do we get out now?"
Chen Cang mused for a moment and said,""This ancient city must be built on top of an underground river. Otherwise, it wouldn't be able to support an ancient city. These underground tunnels are very likely to connect to some core buildings of the ancient city.”
" For example... a temple of worship..."
" We just need to follow the underground tunnel and we'll find the core building. There must be an exit inside…"
Shirley Yang nodded in agreement.
Thus, the two of them continued to walk forward along the underground passage.
A rustling sound came from the surrounding walls. This should be the uneasiness of the desert army ants.
On the one hand, they had already sensed the intruder.
Moreover, the queen ant was constantly giving orders to attack the intruders.
On the other hand, the Desert Army Ants could feel that there was a very terrifying aura on that human. This aura made the Desert Army Ants unable to muster up any thoughts of resisting.
That was the Azure Dragon!
One of the legendary Four Divine Beasts!
The pressure they released was not something that some small ants could withstand even after thousands of years.
The entire underground tunnel was made of bluish-black stone slabs. There were a large number of murals on it. Most of the contents of these murals were sacrificial scenes.
"Chen Cang, this mural seems to be offering treasures and slaves to the Queen of Jingjue. Look at the Queen of Jingjue on it. She's covered with a veil and has the symbol of her eyes.”Shirley Yang pointed at one of the murals.
Chen Cang nodded," This ancient city is probably a subsidiary of Jingjue Country. The giant pupil stone statue we found in the ancient city can prove this.”
"Do you think this ancient city was destroyed by desert army ants?”Shirley guessed.
"Probably not."
Chen Cang shook his head." The desert army ants are indeed terrifying, but there are a large number of humans living here. It's basically impossible for the army ants to develop on a large scale under the ancient city. Those people are not fools.”
"Then how was this city destroyed?”
"It's probably because of the natural disaster.”
Chen Cang sighed." In fact, many countries in the Western Region were destroyed by natural disasters, especially since this is the Black Desert. Sandstorms can erupt at any time.”
Just as the two of them were chatting, a creaking sound came from in front of them. It sounded creepy.
Chen Cang and Shirley Yang stopped talking.
They looked ahead solemnly, and a sense of unease rose in their hearts…
