It was like a vast purgatory, and the small patch of green they were in was obviously infected. The white dust flying everywhere was the dried and fluttered plants.

It wasn't until this moment that Feng Ruqing truly understood why this place was called a deserted land.

Wherever the lava reaches, vegetation withers and lives turn into charcoal, leaving the area naturally desolate.

Feng Ruqing inhaled a mouthful of heat waves, her eyes were sore and she looked away. Gong You led Feng Ruqing back. Once they reached the top of the mountain, they could no longer feel the heat.

"That's Tianli," Gong You said, "I'll take you to see the mermaid tribe."

When Gongyu pulled her to a waterside like riding the wind, she was really shocked when she saw countless mermaids lying on the shore or rolling up and down in the water under the sun.

Feng Ruqing had seen the mermaid tribe before, but only before she fainted.

At that time, she had exhausted herself too much and was at the end of her strength. When she saw the mermaids, she was lying on the ground at an angle, so she only saw their upper bodies, which were indistinguishable from humans. She only knew that they had long hair and extremely pale skin.

.

But now that she saw the whole mermaid, even Feng Ruqing couldn't help but click her tongue.

When she was in Xuanyun Mountain, all the brothers and sisters from Shanmen were extraordinary in appearance, and her master was the leader in the world of cultivation. No one could match him in terms of skills or grace.

She even saw a real vixen, charming and charming.

But when she saw the mermaid tribe today, she couldn't move her eyes away at all.

The scales of fish tails of various colors under the sun make this small world extremely colorful. At first glance, the appearance of the mermaids is just like ordinary people, but if you take a closer look, you can find that starting from their faces, they have subtle details.

Dense scales adhere to the skin.

The scales cover the entire upper body from the cheeks to the lower jaw, and finally gradually turn into a larger, hard and shiny color at the tail of the fish.

Their long hair floats in the water like water plants, and there are fins that are different from ordinary people behind their ears. Their fingers on the shore are too long, their nails are as sharp as knives, and there is a thin layer of webbing attached to the joints of their five fingers.

This human appearance and various inhuman characteristics are wonderfully integrated into one creature, making them all so beautiful and enchanting that they are more dazzling than the sun.

At this time, these beautiful creatures are unintentionally showing off their graceful or strong figures in the water, with their long fish tails gently lapping the water, causing sparkling ripples.

When they tilt their heads towards you slightly and look at you ethereally and curiously, their light eyes that seem emotionless, but actually reflect the color of water and sky, can draw all the lovers in this world into the sea willingly.

This is probably why even though the mermaid tribe has disappeared from the world for a long time, they are still called sirens in novels and stories.

Feng Ruqing was so entranced by the sight that she even breathed lightly and was so dazzled that she couldn't tell which fish... which mermaid was the prettiest.

Suddenly her eyes were blocked, and Gong You's voice rang in her ears, "Don't look at it, the mermaid tribe has the ability to enchant. If you are tempted, you must become a partner with them."

Feng Ruqingxin said, "Let's get married. Such a beautiful creature is not human, so it's not bad as a partner." Isn't it charming to build a home by the lake and the sea, and watch him having fun in the water every day?

However, Feng Ruqing did not say these words, nor did she pull away Gong You's hand covering her eyes. Although these beautiful mermaids seemed many times stronger than Gong You, a stupid dragon, they would not face them in a desperate situation.

She protected him to the death.

Feng Ruqing was led away from this small world by Gong You, covering her eyes. The two of them found a place with a very open view to sit. Gong You told Feng Ruqing some untouchable rules of the mermaid tribe, and Feng Ruqing

She squinted her eyes, basking in the sun, and listened carefully to Gong You's words beside her.

She died more than 600 years ago and lived in the world secretly. In fact, she was not greatly touched by the desperate situation at the bottom of the Underworld.

But she listened to Gong You with a feeling of disgust, and told her about the taboos of the mermaid tribe, but don't approach them casually and promise them anything, otherwise you will easily be deceived into forming a contract and becoming the partner of the mermaid tribe.

In addition to being happy, the mermaid tribe is also very good at fighting. The mermaid girl who looks extremely delicate can be much more powerful than the ordinary high-level monks and evil spirits in the mortal world.

"Don't be fooled by their appearance," Gongyou said. "In the sea, they can defeat a group of bone fish like the ones we met on their own."

Gong You said, "Their bodies can withstand unimaginable strength, and their scales are second only to those of dragons. Their speed and strength are terrifying, and their nails can easily cut through all fish in the water, and even stones."

Feng Ruqing had no emotion in her heart, but she had a look of wonder on her face, "Wow, it's so powerful. Isn't the hybrid of mermaid and dragon even more powerful?"

Gong You once again didn't realize that Feng Ruqing was teasing him, and explained to Feng Ruqing seriously the advantages and disadvantages of mixing mermaid and dragon tribes.

After Feng Ruqing heard a lot about speed, strength, physical ability to withstand stress, and how good Tengtian was at swimming, she concluded, "I understand. I see that you don't have the merits of the fish clan."

Happiness is inherited, but happiness does not match temperament. Even a mermaid is an old fish who has been lonely and bitter for thousands of years.

Feng Ruqing simply changed the subject, "When you were bringing me food this morning, a woman came to me and said she was my second senior sister. I threw her away. I saw that she was not a mermaid. What happened to her?"

Gong You always felt that he was disliked by Feng Ruqing, and the suffocating feeling lingered in his chest. Feng Ruqing suddenly changed the topic, and he had no choice but to follow.

"She is indeed a disciple of Xuanyun Mountain," Gong You said. "It is said that many years ago, she met the mermaid tribe on the shore of the Underworld Sea who wanted to go ashore to activate the formations and restrictions, and then witnessed with her own eyes the mermaids who left the sea formation first.

The clan turned into flying ashes and quickly stopped Lan Yin who was following closely and was about to go to sea."

Feng Ruqing's face was full of doubts, Gong You explained, "Lanyin is the new clan leader of the mermaid clan. Your second senior sister fell in love with him at first sight and followed him to the bottom of the sea of ​​​​underworld."

Feng Ruqing blinked, "But I heard from my senior brother that the second senior sister's name is Yanfeng, and she said her name is Yu Fengxue."

Gong You said, "Her name is Yu Yanfeng, and she changed her name because Lan Yin likes wind and snow. There is no snow at the bottom of this underworld sea."

Feng Ruqing didn't care about the second senior sister, Feng Xue or love at first sight. She accurately found the important part and asked, "She is very capable, right?"

Otherwise, it would be impossible for someone who fell in love at first sight to follow her to the bottom of the underworld, and be torn to pieces by the evil things in the sea long ago.

Gong You nodded, "She is now the main combat force of the mermaid tribe against lava beasts. She has a heavy sword, and her ultimate attack is freezing, which is the best against lava beasts. As for the realm, I fought with her against lava beasts some time ago. I guess

Above the seventh level."

Feng Ruqing had only heard of her from Mu Liang's mouth. It was said that she traveled around the world and followed the path of ascetic cultivation. Traveling around the world and practicing everywhere, it is inevitable that her skills will be solid, and it is reasonable for her to have a high level.

However, Feng Ruqing still frowned when she thought of her, "But whether she has a bad mind and talks nonsense, I don't understand at all."

Speaking of this, Gong You agreed, "She is indeed so heartbroken that she is going crazy. The leader of the Blue Silver clan will be looking for a wife in the clan in the future and will be responsible for reproduction. It is impossible for her to be with a human being. She will cling to her for life and death."

.In the past many years, because of her strong fighting prowess, she has really established a firm foothold in the clan, and no mermaid dares to come close to Lan Yin."

Feng Ruqing admired her a little when she heard this, "She is also a very kind person."

"By the way, tell me about the things you found out about the mermaid tribe during the year I was in coma," Feng Ruqing said, "how to break through the realm of water and sky, how to break through the underworld formation, and bring the mermaid with you

Is there any way to bring the clan back to light?"

Gong You woke up because of Feng Ruqing, and didn't want to tell her these heavy things, but when she asked, Gong You had no choice but to tell her about the current situation.

After Gong You finished speaking, he looked at Feng Ruqing and said, "You don't have to be too anxious. Logically speaking, you can't enter the realm of water and sky with brute force. Didn't we just break in anyway? Now let's take a good rest.

, get familiar with the lava beast and the mermaid tribe, and then think of a way."

"There will be a way." Gong You didn't dare to say such a vow before. The sea of ​​​​the underworld sealed by the power of the gods in the entire upper world could not be easily broken.

But he didn't want Feng Ruqing to be depressed, and said, "If it takes too long and there is still no way, we will try to break through the realm of water and sky, and I will send you back to the human world."

Feng Ruqing didn't listen to Gong You's words of comfort behind her, but was just thinking about what Gong You said about the mermaid tribe, the sea formation, and the situation in the realm of water and sky.

The lava is eroding step by step, and lava beasts often invade the mermaid tribe. This sacrifice does not require the mermaid tribe to take the initiative to sacrifice any lives, but also provides them with a place to live. A conjecture gradually formed in Feng Ruqing's mind.

.

The reason why the mermaid tribe will be used for sacrifice is not because the lava beast wants to eat living creatures, but as Gongyou said, the mermaid tribe can be said to be the most powerful race among all the races.

Demons and demons all have uneven strengths and weaknesses, and the human race is even more vulnerable. In the world of cultivation, it takes many years of cultivation, and it requires the warmth of heaven and spiritual energy to produce a strong person.

As for the mermaids, they are born strong. Even the smaller-looking females can match the abilities of high-level monks.

Such a seemingly powerful race, sealed at the bottom of the underworld, cannot be used to die. The gods in the heaven want the mermaid race to guard the cracks in the four realms and fight against the lava beasts.

He also asked them to stay and did not give them a way out. He even refused to count their merits and rectify the name of the mermaid tribe in the four realms. He also placed a curse on them that they would turn into ashes after leaving the Nether Sea.

Why is he so vicious?

Is this the immortal from the upper realm?

Feng Ruqing raised her head and looked up at the sky. This was the bottom of the Underworld Sea, and the sunlight did not reach the sky. However, Feng Ruqing felt a chill in her teeth for the mermaid tribe.

She suddenly turned her head to look at Gong You and said, "If your brother's dragon feet are chopped off by you, he will no longer be able to sit on the throne. Where is your father? Will he live for a long time?"

Gong You was a little confused by Feng Ruqing's question, but he still answered Feng Ruqing's question honestly, shaking him to the core, without even a piece of cloth hanging on his face.

"That means that as long as you smash the sea formation, break the realm of water and sky, and bring the mermaid tribe back to the world, you will be able to gain merit and return to the heaven?"

Gong You opened his mouth, and Feng Ruqing added, "At that time, no one in the heaven can rival you, and you will be the legitimate prince of the heaven. If you survive your father to death, you will be the emperor of heaven, right?"

Gong You laughed and said, "You have a pretty good idea for me. What we have to do is very, very difficult, and there are many descendants of the dragon clan. It may not be me. My bloodline is not pure."

"Why does it have to be pure? Is there inherently high and low in this world, or is it dictated by the gods in the sky who are afraid of harming a certain ethnic group if something happens?"

Feng Ruqing looked at Gong You, and Gong You looked at her. He suddenly opened his arms and hugged Feng Ruqing.

"You're right! This is what I'm thinking too!"

Feng Ruqing hugged Gong You sideways, "So, if you become the Emperor of Heaven in the future, you must be a wise king and kick those gods whose souls have been corroded by eternal life into the human world to experience the pain of reincarnation.

."

Gong You just thought that he and Feng Ruqing were talking arrogant words, and no one else here could hear them, so he smiled and said, "Okay! One day I will become the Emperor of Heaven and replace all the gods in the sky!"

The two people hugged each other, and the sun shone on Feng Ruqing's face. At this moment, she was indeed infected by Gong You's warm blood, and felt that she was holding a scorching life that she had never experienced before.

Gong You's love was hot and blazing. Feng Ruqing felt like weeds covered by lava. This was a very novel experience.

She didn't hate this feeling, but if she wanted to taste this lava-flavored love, she had to choose a good moment to do it.

Since it is lava, it must be sparkling to be the most delicious.

In the next few days, every time Gong You went to Feng Ruqing with food, he always happened to see her coming back from nowhere with a satisfied look on her face.

After several attempts, Gong You struggled and followed Feng Ruqing.
