Arowana still remembers that when he was a child, his family lived in a lake with abundant water and grass.
The lake is close to the snow-capped mountains and is home to schools of fish, and occasionally dangerous birds fly over the lake.
Arowana's first memory of his parents is the fearful look in his parents' eyes when they faced him.
Because from the day he was born, Arowana has been a special case.
Its scales are a completely different golden color from those of ordinary arowana.
This golden scale did not bring good luck to the dragon fish, but instead attracted ostracism from its companions, suspicion from foreign tribes, and covetousness from natural enemies.
During a migration, the eye-catching golden scales attracted the attention of the eagle.
The parents hit the water and helped the dragon fish escape. After a narrow escape, only grandma and the dragon fish were left to depend on each other.
People of the same race often besiege and bully the arowana because it brings danger.
Whenever this happens, the dragon fish will run away crying to see his grandma with wounds all over his body.
Grandma will tell the story about the dragon fish leaping over the dragon gate and turning into a real dragon.
I will tell it some old-fashioned truths.
Arowana often thinks that maybe even grandma herself doesn’t believe these legends and is just telling a story that has been passed down.
But these are comforting words that are firmly engraved in Arowana's mind, making him often think of his grandma and often dream of Longmen Pass.
On an ordinary afternoon, the dragon fish took the water plants home and saw a holy and beautiful jade dragon in the sky.
Then I saw grandma flying up and flying towards the jade dragon.
The dragon fish wanted to ask grandma where she was going and whether the jade dragon was turned into a fish, but in the end she just stared at everything blankly.
It saw Yulong taking grandma and flying to the snow mountain.
Later, it heard from its companions that grandma might have gone to the East China Sea, because all the fish in the four seas are under the control of the dragon clan in the East China Sea.
Everyone said that grandma went to enjoy a happy life... Arowana was also happy for grandma.
But I still want to see grandma.
So I wandered along the snow-capped mountains and into Sichuan.
Then it breaks into the Yangtze River along its tributaries, and rushes to the East China Sea in a mighty way.
When I was so hungry and dizzy, I caught the dragon fish.
And then...
"Hey, Yuyu, wake up."
Luo He poked the napping Yuyu and said:
"We are coming to [Pengshan Island] soon!"
Yuyu opened his eyes in confusion and found himself lying on the back of the turtle shell, and the face of the young man in white came into view.
"Ugh..." Yuyu spit out bubbles.
"You said you dreamed about grandma?" Luo He said in surprise.
Yuyu nodded his head and said that he would definitely find the [Jade Dragon Horn] to give the gang of Dragon Palace thieves some clues.
Luo He smiled and poked a bright red spot on the forehead of the golden dragon carp and said:
"Haven't you always wanted to come to the East China Sea? Let's take a look at the surrounding scenery now."
The fish was startled, spit out a bubble of water, wrapped it around itself, and floated out of thin air.
Looking around, I saw only the vast expanse of the East China Sea, with only a floating turtle shell exposed, carrying a cross-legged young man in white shirt, moving slowly on the sea.
The sea breeze blew slowly, stirring the waves, and white ripples appeared on the blue sea surface, just like the moon in the water rippled with bubbles.
There is a lonely island at the end of the horizon, shrouded in clouds and mist, as beautiful as a fairyland.
Yuyu's eyes were a little dazed for a moment:
"Wow..." (Donghai, so beautiful...)
"Hey, nine hundred years old." Luo He knocked on the turtle shell, "I want to ask you about someone."
"You can just say it," the old turtle said in a deep voice.
"There is an arowana, uh, a pet of the same quality as it."
Luo He pointed at the dazed fish: "It's an old dragon fish. It's said that it came to the Dragon Palace. Do you have any impressions?"
The astrolabe turtle looked at the dragon fish, pondered for a long time, and slowly shook his head:
"To tell you the truth, no arowana dares to swim into the Dragon Palace because the name is taboo... Therefore, the arowana you mentioned cannot be in the Dragon Palace."
"Are you sure?" Luo He frowned.
"OK." Astrolabe Turtle nodded.
On the vast sea, the fish suddenly fell into confusion.
The sea breeze blew the two beards of the dragon-bearded carp, and its eyes were confused, feeling lonely as never before.
"Woo..."
No matter how beautiful the East China Sea is, if grandma is not here, what's the point of me coming...
Luo He faced the sea breeze and listened to the fish asking himself, sitting cross-legged on the turtle shell, his eyes twinkling.
It took so long, so much effort, and so much expectation.
As a result, Yuyu not only failed to see her grandma in the East China Sea, but also saw the ugliness and schemes of the dragon clan.
This must be a big blow to it.
However, it is only one step away from Pengshan Island and Yulongjiao.
Whether to cheer up or give up depends on the joint efforts of the trainer and the pet.
Luo He's black hair was blowing slightly in the sea breeze, his eyes were deep, and he slowly said:
"The meaning is that you are always on the road ahead."
"Ugh?" Arowana turned to look at Luo He.
"Yuyu, all your efforts will keep you moving forward."
Luo He said: "We found the Jade Dragon Pearl, which allows you to learn dragon power, we found the Jade Dragon Scale, which allows you to control wind, rain, thunder and lightning, and we also found the Jade Dragon Beard, which allows you to have the blood of the dragon clan and evolve into the Dragon Carp King...
"
Yuyu interjected: "Wow." (Aren't these the gifts given to us by Miss Jiang?)
Luo He coughed lightly and said:
"In short, we still don't know the power of this last token."
"But as long as we find this last token, it means that we have completed a precious journey."
Luo He looked at the dragon-bearded carp and said with a smile:
"I don't know what the end of the journey is now, but what I can be sure of is that, Yuyu, you have become countless times stronger than when you started."
Yuyu stared at Luo He blankly.
After a while, tears welled up in its eyes: "Woo~!"
"Okay, okay."
Luo He smiled and comforted:
"Pengshan Island is ahead, let's get ready to go up the mountain!"
Pengshan Island was getting closer and closer, but the sky gradually became gloomy.
Dark clouds hung over the sea, and the sea wind blew up big waves, bumping Luo He on the turtle shell.
Hoo, ho—
The temperature seemed to drop suddenly, and the cold wind blowing from the sea was biting.
Luo He stretched out his palm to catch the tiny ice crystals falling in the air, and his eyes suddenly froze.
Directly in front of Pengshan Island, a figure holding a halberd floated out of thin air, with an aura as cold as ice.
The person who came had a dragon horn on his head, a halberd in his hand, and his face showed no emotion or anger.
Prince of Dragon Palace, Ao Zhou!
"Luo, Mr. Luo He."
Astrolabe Turtle’s voice was a little nervous:
"I may not be able to take you forward any further!"
"fine."
Luo He smiled slightly and said:
"Just send it here."
An ice-blue summoning array unfolded in front of Luo He, and the thousand-year-old snow lotus froze the sea surface with a ring of ice, creating an ice floe on the sea surface.
Luo He turned over and left the turtle shell, stepped on the ice floe, silently cast his gaze, and confronted Ao Zhou in the distance.
Under the dark clouds, the halberd in Ao Zhou's hand glowed coldly, and he said calmly:
"The forbidden area of the Dragon Palace is ahead. No one can come near. Sir Luo He, please go back."
"Is it because Pengshan Island cannot be entered, or do you dare not let me in?" Luo He said.
"Your Excellency, you are joking." Ao Zhou said, "This is a forbidden area set up by my father. I am only guarding it according to the order."
Luo He said calmly: "Your father asked you to go back to the East Palace, but as soon as I approached Pengshan Island, you rushed out impatiently——"
"What is hidden in this, something ulterior?" Luo He said coldly.
"Pengshan Island is the burial place of the dragon clan." Ao Zhou said, "If you want to force your way in, don't blame the sword for having no eyes."
"Nine hundred years old, you go back."
Luo He ordered: "Tell your Majesty the truth about what your prince said."
"This..." Astrolabe Turtle hesitated.
"I want to see how brave your prince is!"
On the ice, a young man in a white shirt stepped forward.
boom!!
The halberd swept across, and a column of water exploded on the sea, blocking Luo He's way.
"If you take another half step forward, you will forcefully break into the forbidden area. According to the laws of the Dragon Palace -" Ao Zhou said: "Kill without mercy!"
Luo He raised his eyebrows and said:
"I dare to ask the prince, in accordance with the laws of the Dragon Palace, how should I be convicted if I take something by force and frame it as a frame-up?"
Ao Zhou's eyes flickered and he said in a deep voice:
"I have been ordered to guard the forbidden area and do not care about anything else. Your Excellency, please return the way you came!"
Go back to the Dragon Palace and get the Dragon King's handwriting. Ao Zhou must have transferred the Jade Dragon Horn.
Luo He secretly thought... The reason why Ao Zhou is so arrogant is that he was not present when Senior Bai Ze arrived.
Second, it will take time for the patron saint to arrive, enough for him to dispose of the stolen goods.
With my current king-level combat power, I really can't beat the overlord-level Dragon Prince.
Luo He looked up at the dense dark clouds.
Senior Qing...you said you would show up at the critical moment, but I was so reckless!
The ice on the sea further expanded, Luo He stepped forward, stared at the sullen Prince Long, and raised his chin.
The Dragon Prince's eyes suddenly turned cold, he swung his halberd and swept across the sea with a majestic wave of ice power!
At the same moment, Xiao Jiu appeared with red light, standing on the sea, standing on both feet and with strong arms.
Zhu Tian Siming was activated instantly, Xiao Jiu's whole body was filled with vermilion flames, his body seemed to expand in a circle, and he folded his arms.
Bang!!
The halberd struck Xiao Jiu like thunder. Fortunately, the human form was not the most powerful form of Prince Long. Xiao Jiu stumbled backwards and barely resisted.
Immediately, Xiao Jiu's tail ring glowed with golden light, and under the prompting of Yan Tian Si Ming, fire surged around his body, and he suddenly spit out roaring flame dragon bullets!
Ao Zhou swung his halberd and swept across, instantly cutting the flame dragon bullet into two pieces.
boom!!
Over the sea, the explosion set off thick black smoke.
Luo He looked at Yuyu aside and said:
"Yuyu, you go to Pengshan Island first!"
Yuyu nodded quickly and tried to avoid Ao Zhou with Xiaojiu's cover.
Who would have expected that Ao Zhou was already prepared and threw his halberd, stabbing the Dragon Carp King as fast as lightning!
At the critical moment, the life-saving skills he practiced day and night appeared in Yuyu's mind.
"Woo!" Dragon Carp King's eyes were bright.
Luo He asked me to train for oil immersion just for this day!
A large amount of oil oozes from the body surface of the Dragon Carp King, making it look like a loach that is difficult to stab.
The sharp point of the halberd missed the vital point, giving Yuyu a gap to summon the water avatar.
Phew!
The halberd instantly pierced the water body, and the dragon fish's body had already rushed into the interior of Pengshan Island.
Ao Zhou was startled for a moment, and then his face turned sullen: "It's a small trick."
Luo He ordered: "Steam and explode the oil dragon!"
Yuyu turned around, spit out an almost transparent oil dragon, and rushed straight towards Ao Zhou.
Ao Zhou's halberd had already been released, and he swung out his sharp dragon claws, instantly cutting the oil dragon in half.
However, the oil dragon inside was cut off, and the oil and steam inside it heated up rapidly, emitting a white light like nuclear fission!
Ao Zhou's eyes reflected increasingly stronger white light, and his pupils shrank slightly.
boom!!
The large-scale explosion swallowed up Ao Zhou in an instant and set off a huge wave on the sea, causing a sensation for dozens of miles in radius!
With the help of the explosion, Dragon Carp King quickly rushed into the interior of Pengshan Island.
Luo He looked at Yuyu's disappearing figure with serious eyes.
This move will at most cause some interference to the overlord-level Dragon Prince.
What really determines the outcome of the battle...is how quickly Yuyu can find the Jade Dragon Horn!
The aftermath of the explosion gradually dissipated.
In the white smoke, a giant creature with pitch-black scales appeared, with four limbs and no wings, and two forked dragon horns, just like an ice-attributed black dragon living in a cold pool.
The black dragon's eyes were cold, staring at Luo He, and mouthing human words:
"I advise you to leave as soon as possible, Luo He."
The boss has taken its second form...but you don't need to defeat it, just drag it to a helper.
Luo He sneered: "I've cut down the frost dragon before, who do you think is the best——"
"Xiaojiu, murderous intent fluctuates!"
The Nine-section Wolf's eyes were burning with dark purple flames, and awe-inspiring black and red flames spread all over his body, and he instantly disappeared on the spot.
"Sonic Punch!"
The next moment, the Nine-section Wolf appeared in front of the black dragon and blasted out an airtight fist net!
The black dragon roared and breathed out extremely cold ice breath, but was dodged by the Nine-section Wolf's instant shadow attack, which made him very angry.
While Xiao Jiu was delaying the black dragon, Luo He looked at Pengshan Island, his eyes flashing:
“Yuyu—you can do it!”
Pengshan Island.
The fairy mountain has misty clouds and mist, as beautiful as a picture scroll.
The fish had no time to appreciate it, so they swam quickly along the river relying on their sense of the Jade Dragon God's token.
Suddenly, a glimmer of light appeared in Yuyu's eyes, and he looked in one direction.
The spectacular waterfall comes into view, flowing down and rumbling, it seems to be the Milky Way.
Yuyu looked up at the waterfall, nervously moved forward, came to the lower reaches of the waterfall, and looked up again.
Yulongjiao... is right above the waterfall.
But it’s so high, can I really swim up there?
The fish tried to fly up on the bubbles, but the flying current knocked the fish back to its original place.
"Ugh..." (I can't fly up...)
Yuyu took a deep breath, his eyes showing determination:
"Woo!" (Then I will swim up!)
Big waves hit the body, like thousands of iron hooves roaring over the body.
The fish gritted its teeth, swam upstream, and jumped up suddenly.
I don't know how high this jump is, but it is still a thousand miles away from the top of the waterfall.
thump!
The fish fell back to where it was.
It looked up at the waterfall, paused for a moment, and then charged again as if fiercely!
Once, twice, three times...each time the fish jumped higher than before.
However, the waterfall seemed to be endlessly high and there seemed to be no possibility of crossing it.
I don’t know how many times I tried, but Yuyu fell back to the starting point again.
The flying current washed over the dragon fish's body, and it looked up at the mountain peak near the clouds, slightly lost in thought.
It's so high, is it really possible for me to jump up?
Otherwise, find another way?
Boom!!
There was a deafening explosion behind him.
Yuyu turned around suddenly and saw the black dragon and the nine-section wolf fighting together.
This is the time everyone is fighting for for me...
There is no time to hesitate any longer!
Jump up again and again, try again and again.
The fish struggled to swim upstream, feeling that every stream of water passed through its body like a needle. The top of the waterfall was reflected in its eyes, and it jumped with all its strength!
However.
Yuyu found in despair that this jump was actually lower than any previous jump.
It gets further and further away from the top of the mountain!
thump!
The fish fell back to its original position and floated on the water, panting feebly.
It looked towards the clouds, its eyes showing bitterness.
"Woo..."
Sorry, Luo He.
No more energy.
I may have to live up to your expectations...
In front of Yuyu's eyes, the picture of his parents leading away the eagle and osprey to help him escape gradually appeared, and he gradually became tearful.
That scene was so similar to the current situation.
Grandma... I can't seem to do anything on my own.
The fish looked up to the sky with tears in his eyes, and his pupils suddenly shrank to a point.
I don't know why, it's like a miracle.
Yuyu's ears seemed to recall what her grandma once said.
Grandma always said...if you feel tired, take a rest.
Then, set off again.
"Woo!!"
The Dragon Carp King showed determination and jumped up towards the waterfall.
The rapids whipped its body like a steel whip, and the water pressure squeezed its flesh and blood like an iron gate.
The fish can hardly feel the existence of the body, and can only hear every heartbeat and every breath.
Boom!
Falling back to the starting point again, but a little closer to the top of the mountain.
"Woo!!"
The fish jumped up again towards the waterfall, getting closer this time, but fell back to the original point again.
The waterfall was soaked in bright red, but was quickly washed away.
Only the mountain peaks are left in the fish's eyes, and it tries its best to jump up.
This time, Yuyu crossed the mountain and saw the other end of the upper reaches of the waterfall.
At the other end, the Jade Dragon Corner is placed there quietly!
The fish's eyes widened, but its body was pulled by gravity and fell helplessly.
thump!
Fall back to the original place again.
The fish looked at the sky in a daze.
Just now, it was almost...
The distance to jump over is obviously only a little bit away!
The slightest difference is like a natural chasm.
Tears welled up in his eyes, Yuyu sobbed softly, looking up at the endless waterfall, trembling unwillingly:
"Woo..."
Am I really the dragon fish in the story?
Rumble——
In an instant, dark clouds gathered over Pengshan Island.
The fish stopped crying blankly and looked up at the sky.
The wind was blowing and the rain was gradually falling.
Soon, the rain gradually intensified and the water level miraculously gradually rose.
Luo He looked at the heavy rain falling from the sky and murmured:
"The wind is blowing..."
In the heavy rain, the fish let the rain wash over its body.
The wind was so gentle, gently lifting its body, and even the rain seemed to become warm.
The heavy rain was reflected in Arowana's pupils, and tears slid down both sides of his eyes, like a begging or a prayer:
"Woo..."
Grandma... today is the day.
Countercurrent, upward.
Leap up and climb the mountain!
Coming from the west to defeat Kunlun, roaring to touch the dragon gate!
The golden-scaled body is bathed in the violent wind and rain, and the lightning on the body reflects the sky!
During the heavy rain, Heilong looked back and saw the figure above Pengshan Island, his eyes widened in disbelief.
Luo He looked up at the figure under the sky, compared it with the information in Bai Zetu, and was slightly startled.
That's...Yuyu?
The flying dragon is covered in golden armor, with golden dragon horns on its head, and its claws stretched out, soaring over Pengshan Island, roaring in the sky of lightning and thunder.
One day the same wind rises, soaring 90,000 miles!
Boom!
Thunder exploded in the sky behind the golden flying dragon, reflecting Luo He's shocked face.
