The corridor inside the cave extends downwards at a slant and is winding. In addition to the roar of dragons that can be heard from time to time, some fine powder will fall due to vibration, giving people the feeling that this is a dangerous house.
The air in the cave is very dry. There is no fishy smell in ordinary animal caves. Instead, it has the smell of rosin and some burning grease. This makes Yinbai couldn't help but wonder whether the dragon named Shou Lao is in the cave.
BBQ?
In fact, Shou Lao usually had nothing to eat. This cave was an absolutely forbidden area in Kunlun. If the Jade Emperor had not led them both through the restriction, outsiders would not be able to come in even if they saw the cave here.
The importance of the Iron Fist Trial to Kunlun is self-evident. Although the immortal curse has advantages and disadvantages, people who learn martial arts often value their own strength more.
There are not many ways to break through the limits of human beings, and killing Shou Lao and bathing in dragon blood is one of them. Shou Lao happens to be trapped in Kunlun and cannot leave. If you don't use this, it will be a waste of natural resources.
The relationship between him and Kunlun is also relatively complicated. To put it simply, they should be taking advantage of each other.
It is precisely because of Kunlun's rules that people will not challenge him or harass him every day, so he can change his mind. At the same time, there is only one iron fist trial in decades, which is just a fight. If he loses, he will be beaten by others.
Share some immortal concepts and wait for time to revive them.
As for what the immortal curse is exactly? Kunlun himself can’t tell clearly. Maybe it means he will not die well?
But all the iron fists in the past have died in battle, which is also one of the best fates for warriors, so whether the curse exists is another question.
"This cave is smaller than I thought." Yinbai expressed her opinion in a low voice as she walked around. She also raised her hand to gesture and almost reached the top of the passage: "And it seems that no one has come in for a long time.
, but not even a small insect can be seen.”
Generally speaking, places like caves are natural sanctuaries for wild animals. Not to mention bears or lynxes, at least bats and spiders will appear in caves.
But today, along the way in the Dragon's Cave, she didn't see a single living creature except for the thick dust on the ground.
"Shou Lao's aura is an irresistible terror for beasts." The Jade Emperor held a torch in his hand. He led the way and replied with a smile: "Besides, all the animals in Kunlun are spiritual beasts.
, they are very smart. Since they can live happily with people, why do they want to live in caves in the wild?"
There are some small buildings and houses inside Kunlun, which are specially built for animals. They have food, drink, and shelter from wind and rain. Like the cranes and sika deer that the girl saw earlier, they are basically in a state of being raised by humans.
It's almost like herding sheep.
"The breath of terror. Why don't I feel anything?" Yinbai scratched her head. She closed her eyes and wanted to feel it, but she only felt the dust making her nose itchy.
"Because it is said that Shou Lao was once a human being. Forget it, let's not talk about those things. Who knows what happened tens of millions of years ago? It's better to say less about the gossipy things, hahaha."
The Jade Emperor seemed to want to tell a story, but in the end he controlled his mouth and just used a silly smile to fool him. Obviously, the legends about Shou Lao were not very good and were inconvenient to tell outsiders.
Besides, Batman and Silver Woman are just here to borrow the sword for a look. The Jade Emperor has never seen them before, and he probably won't see them again in the future.
The dark and narrow passage seemed to stretch out for a long time. Yinbai didn't know how long he walked in the dim light of the torch. He only knew that Batman didn't say anything along the way and remained silent.
I don’t know how long I walked before a bright light appeared in front of me, the passage became wider, and my eyes suddenly became clear.
It turned out that there was a huge cave-like space underground, and at the other end where everyone was facing, there was a huge Western dragon scratching the wall with its claws.
At this time, Su Ming was actually about ten steps behind Yin Bai, but because of the invisibility effect of the magic floating cloak and the cat's dream effect, he felt as if he was in another dimension.
He can see outside, but he can't be seen outside, and the conversation between him and the cat can't be heard.
"This dragon is smaller than I thought." The cat squatted on Deathstroke's shoulder, stretched its neck to look deeper into the cave, and looked over the girl's head: "It seems that this old man still respects you, Batman.
It’s my first time here, and I can enter this kind of place under your banner, so have you been to this cave before?”
It's also possible that Batman has a charm that ordinary people can't match, and this old man actually likes men? But this was the cat's guess, and it didn't say it out loud.
"No, because that dragon is not attractive to me." Su Ming shook his head. He also looked at the dragons deep in the cave: "As you can see, it is very small. Even if it is killed for meat,
It’s not enough to feed all the staff and students of Karma Taj.”
Just like what he said, Shou Lao is a bit small for a Western dragon, only about fifty meters long, and has a shoulder height of over twenty-six or seven meters when lying on the ground.
For humans, an eight-story-tall giant beast is indeed quite oppressive, but dragons are a type of fantasy creature after all, and their size is a bit unsightly, and there is no profit to speak of.
Anyway, in Su Ming's own understanding, the so-called dragon must be at least the size of the Lava Dragon in the world of "Monster Hunter", that is, it only has a length of 400 meters to be interesting.
The cat thinks this dragon is small because it has seen the 'Red Dragon King' that exists in the Maya dimension. That dragon is also over 200 meters long.
"Forget it, have you seen the Fuxi Sword?" The cat changed the topic again. It turned out that it was stretching its neck not to look at the dragon, but to look for the sword: "I heard it is radioactive, it should be easy to find.
?”
"It's right there, right next to Shou Lao's feet, buried in the pile of gold coins." Of course I saw it. It can be said that I had sensed it through the darkness before coming here. After hearing the call between Deadpool and Batman,
.
However, the sword is buried. What connection it has with the Star Sword is left to Batman to see for himself.
"Well, I saw it, it feels a bit ordinary?" The cat's head tilted, and it lay down again, with its limbs hanging on the man's shoulders, like a piece of rag: "I thought the divine sword would be like the legend, with light and shadow.
It's gorgeous and dazzling, surrounded by all kinds of strange phenomena, but its hilt looks a bit gray."
"Weapons like this often have their own will. Huangdi can use it, but others may not be able to use it, including Shou Lao."
Su Ming calmly watched the Jade Emperor go to negotiate with Shou Lao. Batman and Yinbai were secretly preparing for battle. He seemed to not notice and was only talking to the cat. The atmosphere was not good now. He felt that Shou Lao might want to do something.
