Chapter 853: Butterflies Fly
Countless butterflies flew out of the grass by the dark river, from the countless roots, and from the cracks in the rocks, and joined the mighty butterfly procession.
These butterflies seem to follow some primitive instinct, and it seems that there is some kind of mysterious master in the dark, summoning these flying elves......
Ding Yi ran to the deck, almost all of them stood on the deck at this time, looking at the butterflies not far away, like a group of butterflies, everyone was attracted by the magnificent and magical scenery of nature, and they were dazzled.
"It's beautiful. Wen Ying blurted out.
Ding Yi looked sideways, and the great grandmaster beside him, who was as strong as a man, and even more rude than a man, couldn't help but be a little surprised. For a long time, he thought that the former palace master of the Divine Beast Palace did not have any femininity as a woman at all. I thought that this great master only liked to fight and kill, but I didn't expect that at this time, I could still see her feminine side.
There are butterfly springs in the Liuhua Continent and butterfly valleys in the Arctic Continent, all of which have such beautiful scenery. It's just that Ding Yi has only heard of it, but he hasn't seen it with his own eyes. The flock of butterflies fluttering on the dark river reminded him of some people and things in the Shenwu Empire.
Glancing at Hua Cuiping who came out, Ding Yi said in a deep voice: "Follow these butterflies." ”
Hua Cuiping hurriedly returned to the cockpit and explained Ding Yi's instructions to Xiahou Yi.
The so-called dark river is actually a complex underground water network with three dimensions. Ding Yi and the others came all the way, but they had actually seen two small forks. In fact, there is no need for Ding Yi to order, Xiahou Yi also has this plan, and he also has a vague feeling that following these butterflies, there may be something to gain.
Following the flock of butterflies, the clipper went forward for more than ten miles, and the butterfly turned to a fork, and the clipper followed. This fork of the river is relatively narrow, but fortunately, the current here is quite gentle, and driving a fast boat is not too difficult.
Mr. Yu Wenjian, Guan Zhongchuan, An Song, Mr. Wei Da...... Seven Grand Masters, they are in front of the Clipper to clear the way for the Clipper. The front of this waterway is densely packed with all kinds of tree roots and vines. The seven Great Grandmasters sat on the two Godslayer War Golems, cooperating with the two War Golems, from time to time to unleash secret and supernatural powers to blast away these obstacles that stood in the way.
The further you go, the more obstacles there are, and the more difficult it is to go, but this group of adventurers are all top powerful monks in the small world, and even if there is no road at all, they can blast a way.
The further you go inside, the more butterflies there are, and the butterflies are mainly composed of 'light butterflies' unique to the True Dragon Realm. The Light Butterfly is like a butterfly made of glass, with a translucent flower on its body and wings, and has the ability to light. Ding Yi and the others entered the True Dragon Realm and caught this strange butterfly.
In addition to the light butterfly, there is also the neon butterfly, which is a butterfly that can change the color of its body at any time, and the neon butterfly is very beautiful, almost the most beautiful butterfly Ding Yi they have ever seen. The number of neon butterflies is not large, and they only caught five in total in the True Dragon Realm, but in this dark river fork, Ding Yi and they found at least a few thousand.
In addition to these two butterflies unique to the True Dragon Realm, there are also butterflies such as phoenix butterflies, king butterflies, cover butterflies, shadow butterflies, emperor butterflies, flash butterflies, and yin and yang butterflies...... Thousands of species of beautiful butterflies. There is no shortage of very rare varieties in it.
A neon butterfly was auctioned for a sky-high price of 100 million dragon yuan, and the price of an ordinary light butterfly also started at 10,000 dragon yuan. There are millions of butterflies in front of me, if they are auctioned, I don't know how many dragon dollars will be auctioned.
The great grandmasters present all enjoyed the special treatment of the Heavenly Dragon Kingdom. At their level, there is no concept of money anymore. Elixirs, cultivation resources, weapons and equipment, and exercises and secrets, the Heavenly Dragon Kingdom meets all their needs.
Their families have all moved to the outer world, and their benefits are guaranteed. There are no poor people in the outer heavens, as long as they are diligent, even if they are just a mortal, they can live a good life. Children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, and these great masters have long seen all this very thoroughly. Without family and the bonds of the sect, they live a very pure life.
Xu Zhi gradually activated the secret method, conjured two giant spirit palms, and captured a large number of butterflies in mid-air. Several great masters around him carefully pressed the wings of these butterflies with spar slices to make very beautiful butterfly specimens.
Xu Zhijian did these things just to enrich the naturalist, not to sell them for money. These butterflies, the more beautiful they are, the more poisonous they are. Everyone involved in the production of the specimen was dressed in a vestment and covered with mecha, and acted very cautiously.
These great masters are also the tutors of the various Xiuzhen academies in the small world, each academy has its own museum, showroom, Xu Zhijian They do this purely for the purpose of teaching. In fact, this is also one of the tasks of adventurers.
Butterflies fly in front, clippers follow closely, although the dark river is full of dangers, not to see poisonous lizards, crystal dragons and other monsters, poisonous insects, but Ding Yi and their group of high-end cultivators, basically as long as they don't encounter things like evil dragons, eyes, time creatures, and ordinary yuan-level creatures, they will choose to hide when they meet them.
The butterflies flew over several forks in the road, and Ding Yi and the others made signs along the way, not worried about getting lost. Their group of great grandmasters has strong spiritual power, and the range of divine sense detection is very far, so they generally don't get lost. However, just in case, Ding Yi and the others still used a special paint with fluorescence developed by Wu Hong on some rock walls to mark along the road.
The waterway became narrower and narrower, and later, the clipper could no longer pass normally, so everyone released their magic weapons, abandoned the boat, and continued to move forward in a group.
Three war dog god killers opened the way in front, and behind the two Heavenly Lion God Killer halls, there were three or four hundred Xuan-level destroyer puppets on both sides of the rock wall to cover them. In addition, the high-end magic clothes, mechas, and flying magic weapons provide sufficient guarantees for the team to explore in this dark river step by step. This team of adventurers has a clear division of labor, a compact formation, and a degree of relaxation. Along the way, there were no dangers.
Ding Yi has the qualification of ear spirit, although he is in the middle of the formation, and he is still more than a hundred meters away from the vanguard team, but he is still the first to hear the roar from the distance.
"Be careful, there's a waterfall ahead!" Ding Yi reminded everyone loudly.
Sure enough, after advancing three or four kilometers further, the space of the dark river suddenly rose, and the river surface that was only a few meters high and the highest was only a hundred meters high, suddenly rose several thousand meters high, and there was a stream of water on the stone wall falling from the sky, forming a group of waterfalls.
These waterfalls do little harm to the adventurers' team, but they do not hurt the butterflies, at least a quarter of them do not make it through the waterfalls. They were exhausted after flying a long distance, and now, their wings were stained with water droplets, and they fell like a rain of petals, and the river was covered with a thick layer of butterfly corpses.
The carcass of the butterfly attracted a large group of fish, and these fish, who lived in the light of the Holy Light, their vision did not deteriorate like that of other fish in the dark river, and they flocked to feast on them.
Most butterflies are poisonous, but the fish here seem to have evolved a high level of toxin immunity, and they swim happily in the water, competing for the butterflies' carcass.
Xu Zhigradually caught a few of these strange fish from the river. The bodies of these strange fish are like neon lights, changing colors from time to time. Needless to say, these beautiful strange fish are also highly poisonous.
Xiahou Yi asked everyone to stay away from the water as much as possible, and he estimated that the water in this dark river contained highly poisonous.
This group of waterfalls is one or two kilometers long, and the water flows down from the sky, and the people passing below are almost unavoidable, but this is nothing at all for the adventure team composed of this group of great grandmasters. The crowd quickly passed through the waterfalls.
Moving on, the butterfly bends into a narrow slit after a big turn.
Instead of going down the dark river, the butterfly chose to pass through the cracks and take the land route instead.
This crack is as high as two or three thousand meters, and can only accommodate one person to pass sideways, but fortunately, this gap is only two or three kilometers long, except that the stone wall of this crack is crawling with all kinds of geckos, which makes people's scalps numb. It's not that hard to get through this crack.
Through the cracks, it is a long and narrow valley. Everyone continued to walk forward, and after not going far, everyone found that the ambient temperature around them was rising sharply, at least around fifty or sixty degrees. Everyone's magic clothes and mecha have the ability to adjust the temperature, and Ding Yi and they didn't waste even a trace of spiritual power, and they were not affected by this temperature, and continued to follow the butterfly.
After passing the canyon, even if it was completely out of the scope of the True Dragon Realm, because everyone found that their figures were now able to gradually appear.
After calculating the time, it had taken seven hours for everyone to come here alone, and they had walked more than 600 miles. The relay station that everyone carried with them had been exhausted, although Zhuge Qingmin had sent people to the emergency shelter in the dark river and sent a large amount of logistics equipment, but it was far from quenching the thirst.
The attitude of everyone is highly unanimous, they have all gone so far, there is no reason to go back. What's more, this group of them has tacit cooperation, high mana, and excellent equipment, and everyone doesn't want to retreat at this time.
After a brief conversation, everyone quickly reached a consensus and decided to move on.
After another seven or eight kilometers of progress, a sulfur lake appeared in front of them, and everyone did not smell the pungent smell of sulfur because of the mecha, but when they saw the sulfur lake, everyone understood why, the temperature would rise in the distance they had just passed.
A mere sulfur lake could not stop everyone's footsteps, but everyone found that the number of butterflies had plummeted to the point that there was no one left. It's a butterfly's death journey, and you can see butterflies dying from exhaustion or other reasons along the way.
But even so, the butterflies that came from a long journey still did not stop their wings and continued to move forward.
Lava River, Asphalt Lake, Windy Valley...... There were moats in front of them, Jedi everywhere, and dangerous situations, but these still couldn't stop the butterflies from advancing. The protection of the mecha and the magic clothes of the people, and the shuttle, spaceship, airship and other magic weapons and equipment to travel, although it is said that all the way, it is not all smooth sailing, the Yuan-level demon beasts, they have met several, but in general, everything is smooth and peaceful.
Everyone followed the butterflies and flew over a large crystal salt mine, and a huge gray stone wall suddenly appeared in front of them.
