Chapter 1929 - 1925: Peeping
"This black dragon is not an ordinary black dragon. Many years ago, it somehow found nearly half of the Ancestral Dragon’s corpse and refined it into its body. This allowed its divine powers to greatly advance. If the Ancestral Dragon can refine that black dragon’s flesh, it would be equivalent to reclaiming nearly half of its power, naturally increasing its strength." The Tear Demon shook its head and said.
"So that’s how it is, continue on." Shen Luo nodded in realization.
"For many years, I’ve been seeking that black dragon’s traces in the Eastern Sea Abyss, and finally, over a hundred years ago, discovered a clue. Just as I was about to report to the Ancestral Dragon, the Eastern Sea Abyss suddenly experienced a disruption, and the black dragon inexplicably vanished. The Ancestral Dragon Soul’s commands are strict; without concrete evidence, I dared not report it and could only continue searching here tirelessly for another hundred years, finally understanding it was because the entrance of the Well of Demons and Gods descended, swallowing the black dragon. You all know what happened next. The Ancestral Dragon Soul brought you here after receiving my transmission. Earlier, it used the Puppet Law to control Ao Hong and Yuan Qiu, suggesting we split up, to facilitate its search for the black dragon’s traces, which it eventually found here at the Demon-suppressing Tower, where the dragon is suppressed on the fifth layer." The Tear Demon continued.
Upon hearing this, Shen Luo pondered over it all and felt nothing was amiss, then nodded and looked at Beiming Kun, asking: "Why haven’t you mentioned the matter of the black dragon before?"
If he had known about the black dragon earlier, the current situation wouldn’t be as passive as it is now.
"I know nothing of this matter’s beginnings and ends. Although I brought the Well of Demons and Gods entrance from Ling Mountain, the Well of Demons and Gods, including this Little Western Paradise, is completely beyond my control. Another mysterious power governs everything here. If I truly controlled this place, I would have long collected all the treasures within Little Western Paradise over these hundred years, leaving none for you." Beiming Kun spread his hands, saying helplessly.
"Another mysterious power?" Shen Luo agreed and continued to ask.
"I can’t say for sure. Over the hundred years, I’ve visited here countless times, and each time, I vaguely felt a pair of eyes watching me." Beiming Kun frowned as he spoke.
Upon hearing this, Shen Luo looked around, wearing a contemplative expression.
Since entering Little Western Paradise, he also felt a faint sense of being watched, though he initially thought it was due to the prohibitions here. Now it seems otherwise.
